1
00:02:10,396 --> 00:02:12,261
How did it happen?
2
00:02:12,432 --> 00:02:15,993
You knocked me up.
That's how it happened.
3
00:02:16,669 --> 00:02:18,796
You said you were safe.
4
00:02:18,972 --> 00:02:20,667
Well, I was wrong.
5
00:02:20,840 --> 00:02:23,673
It's a hell of a thing to be wrong about.
6
00:02:24,110 --> 00:02:26,544
- You're not taking this too well.
- I'm sorry!
7
00:02:26,713 --> 00:02:28,271
Well, so am I!
8
00:02:28,448 --> 00:02:32,350
Hey, I'm the one that's
knocked up, remember?
9
00:02:32,886 --> 00:02:34,683
Damn.
10
00:02:36,623 --> 00:02:38,352
How do you feel?
11
00:02:38,525 --> 00:02:40,254
Oh, great. Great.
12
00:02:40,426 --> 00:02:42,621
Especially in the morning.
13
00:02:45,665 --> 00:02:48,498
Does anybody else know about this?
14
00:02:48,935 --> 00:02:52,132
Just you and my gynecologist.
15
00:02:54,073 --> 00:02:56,667
What are you gonna tell your folks?
16
00:03:00,246 --> 00:03:02,874
What are you gonna tell your folks?
17
00:03:03,683 --> 00:03:06,982
Oh, shit! I had these lines down cold.
18
00:03:07,153 --> 00:03:10,452
- Denise, come on.
- Steve, I did. I went over them once, twice...
19
00:03:10,623 --> 00:03:13,922
I can't work with you anymore.
I gotta meet my agent. I'm late!
20
00:03:14,093 --> 00:03:16,254
- Just one more time.
- Another day, you name it.
21
00:03:16,429 --> 00:03:19,660
Monday before class? I don't
wanna make a fool out of myself.
22
00:03:19,832 --> 00:03:21,459
All right, I'll see you then.
23
00:03:22,602 --> 00:03:26,436
- I'll see you Monday!
- And learn your lines!
24
00:03:26,606 --> 00:03:30,064
Corned beef on rye, extra lean,
extra-thin bread.
25
00:03:30,243 --> 00:03:35,010
I'm a storm, a flame, too strong to war
with mortals. Bring me giants!
26
00:03:35,181 --> 00:03:38,742
- Bring him a corned beef sandwich.
- Give me another corned beef.
27
00:03:38,918 --> 00:03:42,752
Marty, there's an off-Broadway production
of Cyrano. Can you get me an audition?
28
00:03:42,922 --> 00:03:45,254
Talk to me about the beer commercial.
29
00:03:45,892 --> 00:03:48,087
- I read for them this morning.
- And?
30
00:03:48,261 --> 00:03:50,593
And they liked my sincerity.
31
00:03:50,763 --> 00:03:52,060
How'd they like your acting?
32
00:03:52,232 --> 00:03:55,429
Marty, how much can you do with,
"That's what I call beer"?
33
00:03:55,602 --> 00:03:59,265
- Marty, get me a play, any play.
- It's not like you never had one.
34
00:03:59,439 --> 00:04:01,805
Last summer, Shakespeare in the Park.
35
00:04:02,575 --> 00:04:04,406
I carried a spear.
36
00:04:04,577 --> 00:04:07,307
Marty, that's a joke.
When an actor says he...
37
00:04:07,480 --> 00:04:12,076
...carried a spear, he doesn't mean
he carried a spear. I carried a spear.
38
00:04:12,252 --> 00:04:14,015
Steve!
39
00:04:14,654 --> 00:04:16,315
Oh, most worthy person.
40
00:04:16,489 --> 00:04:19,287
Prince of actors, friend of friends.
Thank you.
41
00:04:19,459 --> 00:04:21,051
Who's the Arab?
42
00:04:21,561 --> 00:04:23,051
Jerry Feldman, Marty Fields.
43
00:04:23,229 --> 00:04:24,821
Hi, nice to know you.
44
00:04:24,998 --> 00:04:26,295
I got it.
45
00:04:26,466 --> 00:04:28,934
- The Schlitz commercial, I got it.
- Hey, that's great!
46
00:04:29,102 --> 00:04:32,765
No, you're great. I wouldn't have
known about it if you hadn't told me.
47
00:04:32,939 --> 00:04:36,966
- I'm very happy for you.
- I'll remember you in my will, honest.
48
00:04:37,143 --> 00:04:42,513
- I'll let you guys talk. I'll call you later.
- All right. Jerry, congratulations.
49
00:04:42,682 --> 00:04:44,274
Bye.
50
00:04:46,319 --> 00:04:50,881
- You told him about the beer commercial?
- Yeah, he's in my acting class. A good guy.
51
00:04:52,425 --> 00:04:53,892
You told him?
52
00:04:54,060 --> 00:04:56,528
And he got it. Schmuck!
53
00:04:56,696 --> 00:04:58,561
He'll do the same for me sometime.
54
00:04:58,731 --> 00:05:03,168
- And you believe that? Double schmuck!
- Come on, you didn't lose the commercial.
55
00:05:03,336 --> 00:05:06,362
- Did I get 10 percent from that Arab?
- Just get me a play.
56
00:05:06,539 --> 00:05:08,803
I'll get you a head examiner. Hey...
57
00:05:08,975 --> 00:05:11,102
...did you put these on separate checks?
58
00:05:11,277 --> 00:05:13,472
No, I put them on rye, like you said.
59
00:05:13,646 --> 00:05:15,511
A schmuck and a smartass.
60
00:05:15,682 --> 00:05:17,081
I'm surrounded.
61
00:05:17,417 --> 00:05:18,850
This looks like a job for...
62
00:05:19,018 --> 00:05:21,885
...Captain Avenger!
63
00:05:23,222 --> 00:05:24,712
Captain Avenger!
64
00:05:24,891 --> 00:05:27,155
- Mind if I drop in?
- Get him!
65
00:05:39,639 --> 00:05:40,867
We're saved.
66
00:05:42,575 --> 00:05:45,203
Thank God you got here just in time.
67
00:05:45,378 --> 00:05:49,109
Captain Avenger, the superhero
who thrilled a generation...
68
00:05:49,282 --> 00:05:52,683
...returns to rock the motion-picture
screen with new excitement.
69
00:05:52,852 --> 00:05:56,310
Sworn to uphold justice, protect
the weak and punish wrongdoers...
70
00:05:56,489 --> 00:06:00,585
...Captain Avenger fights a never-ending
battle against the forces of evil.
71
00:06:00,760 --> 00:06:03,923
This is his story, his greatest adventure.
72
00:06:04,464 --> 00:06:07,729
Who says nice guys finish last?
73
00:06:07,900 --> 00:06:11,028
This weekend Captain Avenger appears
in person at selected theaters.
74
00:06:11,204 --> 00:06:13,536
Check your newspaper
for times and locations.
75
00:06:14,006 --> 00:06:18,340
And now back to Clark Gable and
Joan Crawford in Strange Cargo.
76
00:06:23,583 --> 00:06:26,017
Or is it because I haven't
seen anybody lately?
77
00:06:26,185 --> 00:06:28,415
- Don't get smart.
- Why don't you get smart?
78
00:06:28,588 --> 00:06:33,525
- You know what they'll do to you.
- I'll take all they've got for a little of this.
79
00:06:53,079 --> 00:06:55,343
- Sorry.
- It's okay.
80
00:06:55,715 --> 00:06:57,342
So you're J. Marsh?
81
00:06:57,517 --> 00:06:59,712
I'm S. Nichols. We're neighbors.
82
00:06:59,886 --> 00:07:02,320
- Hello.
- You want me to hold that for you?
83
00:07:02,488 --> 00:07:04,888
- Thank you.
- Oh, you're welcome.
84
00:07:07,827 --> 00:07:10,352
I've seen you come and go a few times.
85
00:07:10,530 --> 00:07:12,589
I live in the front apartment up there.
86
00:07:12,765 --> 00:07:15,029
And you watch people come and go.
87
00:07:15,201 --> 00:07:18,762
Well, I'm an actor, so I watch people.
88
00:07:18,938 --> 00:07:21,304
Haven't you got that backwards?
89
00:07:21,474 --> 00:07:24,841
No, I learn things, see,
about how people are, you know?
90
00:07:25,011 --> 00:07:26,342
How are they?
91
00:07:26,512 --> 00:07:29,948
Well, you look sort of lonely.
92
00:07:30,116 --> 00:07:34,018
- I'm not.
- It's okay, we're going in the same direction.
93
00:07:34,387 --> 00:07:37,049
- So did you move here from out of town?
- No.
94
00:07:37,223 --> 00:07:41,057
- Somewhere in the city, like Queens, or...?
- East 66th Street.
95
00:07:41,227 --> 00:07:43,195
East 66th Street?
96
00:07:43,362 --> 00:07:45,887
Why would anyone move
here from there, right?
97
00:07:46,065 --> 00:07:48,659
No. Hey, I wasn't thinking that.
98
00:07:48,835 --> 00:07:51,736
You're a lousy liar for an actor.
99
00:07:51,904 --> 00:07:53,929
- My Tiger Shake.
- And my schefflera.
100
00:07:55,608 --> 00:07:58,668
Oh, good, Steve. I always do that.
101
00:07:58,845 --> 00:08:00,642
I forget about it.
102
00:08:03,082 --> 00:08:04,549
This is home.
103
00:08:06,219 --> 00:08:08,084
Looks more like a gymnasium.
104
00:08:08,254 --> 00:08:10,279
I have to stay in shape, you know.
105
00:08:10,456 --> 00:08:14,119
I mean, I take a lot of lessons.
Voice, movement, fencing.
106
00:08:14,293 --> 00:08:15,726
Collecting.
107
00:08:15,895 --> 00:08:18,489
Yeah. I can't throw anything away.
108
00:08:18,664 --> 00:08:20,291
You ever act?
109
00:08:20,466 --> 00:08:21,694
Well, sure.
110
00:08:21,868 --> 00:08:23,836
Professionally?
111
00:08:24,403 --> 00:08:25,802
Sometimes.
112
00:08:25,972 --> 00:08:28,099
What do you do other times?
113
00:08:28,274 --> 00:08:32,870
Whatever. Right now,
I'm driving relief cab.
114
00:08:34,881 --> 00:08:38,942
- Well, may I have my plant now?
- I will deliver it to your door.
115
00:08:39,118 --> 00:08:42,315
- I think you'd better have your drink.
- No, it has to settle.
116
00:08:44,357 --> 00:08:46,222
So, what do you do?
117
00:08:46,392 --> 00:08:47,620
About what?
118
00:08:47,793 --> 00:08:50,227
Well, I act. What do you do?
119
00:08:50,396 --> 00:08:51,727
I make commercials.
120
00:08:51,898 --> 00:08:54,025
Really? So do I.
I got one running right now.
121
00:08:54,200 --> 00:08:56,100
Other side of the camera.
122
00:08:56,269 --> 00:08:58,362
Oh, that's great.
123
00:08:59,205 --> 00:09:00,604
Listen...
124
00:09:00,773 --> 00:09:03,970
...I guess you already
have a date for tonight.
125
00:09:04,143 --> 00:09:05,371
No.
126
00:09:05,545 --> 00:09:06,910
- Would you...?
- I'm working.
127
00:09:07,079 --> 00:09:10,207
Perfect. I am too, till 10:00.
Maybe we could get together...
128
00:09:10,383 --> 00:09:12,214
We start at 11.
129
00:09:12,385 --> 00:09:14,910
It's the only time we can get into Sardi's.
130
00:09:15,087 --> 00:09:16,577
That's where you're working?
131
00:09:17,189 --> 00:09:19,282
Sparkey Goes to Opening Night.
132
00:09:19,458 --> 00:09:22,518
Sparkey the Dog?
You do those commercials?
133
00:09:22,695 --> 00:09:26,358
- God help me.
- Oh, that's funny.
134
00:09:28,067 --> 00:09:30,262
Some other time,
when you're not working?
135
00:09:31,470 --> 00:09:32,698
I don't think so.
136
00:09:33,139 --> 00:09:37,007
- Why not?
- You live in a lousy neighborhood.
137
00:09:45,618 --> 00:09:47,677
There you go, okay?
138
00:09:47,853 --> 00:09:49,821
- What's your name, tiger?
- Albert.
139
00:09:49,989 --> 00:09:53,220
Does it really hurt you when some
crooks sock you in the face?
140
00:09:53,392 --> 00:09:55,053
It sure does, little fella.
141
00:09:56,195 --> 00:09:57,992
There you go.
142
00:09:58,164 --> 00:09:59,927
Hi.
143
00:10:00,366 --> 00:10:02,231
- Hey, Captain Avenger.
- Yes, sir.
144
00:10:02,401 --> 00:10:03,800
Let's see you fly.
145
00:10:03,970 --> 00:10:05,437
I'm sorry, son, I don't fly.
146
00:10:05,605 --> 00:10:08,802
Don't let him shit you, man.
Anybody dresses like that flies.
147
00:10:08,975 --> 00:10:11,102
- You mean he's a fruit?
- You saw the picture.
148
00:10:11,277 --> 00:10:15,407
He don't fool with girls. They're falling
all over him, and he don't do nothing.
149
00:10:15,581 --> 00:10:17,572
Hey, Captain Avenger...
150
00:10:17,750 --> 00:10:19,877
...can I feel your muscle?
151
00:10:21,387 --> 00:10:23,412
- I'll let you feel mine.
- You faggot!
152
00:10:23,589 --> 00:10:26,057
Come on, you wise guys.
Go, beat it. Get out of here.
153
00:10:26,225 --> 00:10:28,659
- Wanna feel my muscle?
- I wanna kick your butt.
154
00:10:28,828 --> 00:10:30,455
Eddie, come on.
155
00:10:30,630 --> 00:10:32,757
The others can hear, okay?
156
00:10:32,932 --> 00:10:36,424
I don't believe you. How can you
keep dishing out this stuff?
157
00:10:36,602 --> 00:10:38,695
I'm having fun.
Don't you think this is great?
158
00:10:38,871 --> 00:10:42,602
Great? It's terrible.
We were expecting 400, and we got 40.
159
00:10:48,681 --> 00:10:51,206
- Here's your coat. See you tomorrow.
- All right.
160
00:10:51,384 --> 00:10:54,478
- Bye, captain.
- Good night, captain.
161
00:10:57,590 --> 00:10:59,649
- Faggot.
- So long, wimp.
162
00:11:03,929 --> 00:11:06,420
- How's it going?
- Don't ask.
163
00:11:06,599 --> 00:11:09,363
Two years at Actors Studio for this?
164
00:11:10,403 --> 00:11:13,531
Well, it's just like any other part.
165
00:11:13,706 --> 00:11:18,473
You gotta really get into it. When I was
at that theater, I was Captain Avenger.
166
00:11:18,644 --> 00:11:20,669
Listen, I gave it a shot.
167
00:11:20,846 --> 00:11:26,614
And I was doing okay until some kid
got me with a pellet gun, right in the ass.
168
00:11:26,786 --> 00:11:29,550
Wanted to find out if I was really tough.
169
00:11:29,722 --> 00:11:31,280
- What'd you do?
- I screamed.
170
00:11:31,457 --> 00:11:33,220
I'm not tough.
171
00:11:33,392 --> 00:11:34,791
Not in the ass.
172
00:11:45,371 --> 00:11:47,271
Hey, hey, hey, Captain Crock.
173
00:11:47,440 --> 00:11:48,907
- Where?
- Over here.
174
00:12:02,455 --> 00:12:04,252
Hold it. Hold it.
175
00:12:04,690 --> 00:12:07,124
- Excuse me, can I get in there?
- We're closed.
176
00:12:07,293 --> 00:12:09,818
Can you stay open just long enough
for me to get milk?
177
00:12:09,995 --> 00:12:12,225
- No. We have to go home.
- Oh, please?
178
00:12:12,398 --> 00:12:15,128
Wouldn't it be okay, just for a second?
179
00:12:15,301 --> 00:12:16,529
Okay.
180
00:12:16,702 --> 00:12:18,863
Thank you, sir. I really appreciate it.
181
00:12:19,038 --> 00:12:21,666
- The milk is in the back.
- Oh, great.
182
00:12:28,714 --> 00:12:32,309
Here. Check me out. I'm no accountant.
183
00:12:32,485 --> 00:12:34,680
Who can read your handwriting?
184
00:12:34,854 --> 00:12:37,345
Hire yourself a secretary.
185
00:12:37,523 --> 00:12:40,083
What I should do is
hire myself another wife.
186
00:12:40,259 --> 00:12:41,920
Oh, that's good.
187
00:12:43,295 --> 00:12:45,229
I'm sorry, dear, we're closed.
188
00:12:45,397 --> 00:12:46,989
I'm just gonna get some beer.
189
00:12:50,803 --> 00:12:52,771
Anything else?
190
00:12:53,239 --> 00:12:54,467
Just a bag.
191
00:12:55,141 --> 00:12:56,631
Give me a bag.
192
00:12:57,710 --> 00:12:59,575
This will be...
193
00:12:59,745 --> 00:13:01,440
...2.47.
194
00:13:07,419 --> 00:13:09,910
I don't want the beer.
I want the money.
195
00:13:10,089 --> 00:13:12,922
- Come again?
- You heard me, old man. I want your money.
196
00:13:13,092 --> 00:13:16,152
- Here, here, here.
- I don't want this. I want the money!
197
00:13:16,695 --> 00:13:18,390
- Where is it?
- We haven't got it.
198
00:13:18,564 --> 00:13:20,828
- It's in the bank.
- We deposited it.
199
00:13:21,000 --> 00:13:22,365
Where is the money?
200
00:13:22,535 --> 00:13:24,127
Give him. Give him money.
201
00:13:25,070 --> 00:13:27,903
I don't wanna cut you,
but I'll cut you if I have to.
202
00:13:28,073 --> 00:13:29,301
I'll cut you in half!
203
00:13:29,475 --> 00:13:31,272
- Where's it at?
- Hey!
204
00:13:31,744 --> 00:13:33,712
- Captain Avenger!
- Just get him, man.
205
00:13:33,879 --> 00:13:36,074
- You got the knife, man. You get him.
- Come on.
206
00:13:36,248 --> 00:13:37,476
Fuck you.
207
00:13:39,819 --> 00:13:41,218
Mind if I drop in?
208
00:13:41,387 --> 00:13:42,877
I'm gonna cut you, man.
209
00:13:59,104 --> 00:14:00,469
How about that?
210
00:14:00,639 --> 00:14:03,164
I would never believe it
if I didn't see it.
211
00:14:03,342 --> 00:14:07,039
I can't wait to tell my Sheldon.
He always used to read your comic books.
212
00:14:07,213 --> 00:14:08,942
- Yours and Batman.
- Oh, yeah?
213
00:14:09,114 --> 00:14:11,776
- No, he was always Sheldon's favorite.
- I know.
214
00:14:11,951 --> 00:14:13,680
Well, I better get going.
215
00:14:13,853 --> 00:14:16,185
Can we get you something?
216
00:14:16,355 --> 00:14:20,951
Oh, my milk. I almost forgot.
This is what I came in here for.
217
00:14:22,161 --> 00:14:25,790
I've got some very nice fruit.
Some peaches and plums.
218
00:14:25,965 --> 00:14:28,798
- How about some nectarines?
- No, no, just the milk.
219
00:14:28,968 --> 00:14:31,402
That's fine, thank you.
Thank you very much.
220
00:14:31,570 --> 00:14:33,037
Thank you.
221
00:14:33,205 --> 00:14:36,072
- How much do I owe you?
- Oh, please.
222
00:14:36,242 --> 00:14:37,470
It's on the house.
223
00:14:37,643 --> 00:14:40,043
We couldn't take a penny
from you, darling.
224
00:14:40,212 --> 00:14:43,010
- Well, thank you very much.
- Thank you.
225
00:14:43,816 --> 00:14:45,750
- Bye-bye.
- Bye-bye, dear.
226
00:14:46,252 --> 00:14:50,780
- Oh, he's such a nice boy.
- This is a miracle.
227
00:15:02,101 --> 00:15:04,501
You'll never believe
what just happened to me.
228
00:15:04,670 --> 00:15:07,434
You know that little grocery
store on Bleecker Street?
229
00:15:07,606 --> 00:15:09,039
Hold on a second, will you?
230
00:15:11,210 --> 00:15:12,472
- Hey, Jerry?
- What?
231
00:15:12,645 --> 00:15:14,203
I'll tell you about it later.
232
00:15:14,380 --> 00:15:17,315
- Tell me when you get here.
- Yeah. Okay, if I come.
233
00:15:17,483 --> 00:15:19,383
- Come, it's crazy!
- All right.
234
00:15:19,551 --> 00:15:21,075
Yeah...
235
00:15:21,253 --> 00:15:24,279
- All right. I'll talk to you later.
- All right. Okay.
236
00:15:40,139 --> 00:15:42,437
Sorry, guys, I'm a little late.
237
00:15:42,608 --> 00:15:44,576
Soup's on.
238
00:15:45,144 --> 00:15:46,805
This is Marty Fields.
239
00:15:46,979 --> 00:15:48,378
I'm not in right now.
240
00:15:48,547 --> 00:15:52,142
You wanna know if you got a job?
The answer's no.
241
00:15:52,318 --> 00:15:58,348
When it's yes, I'll call you. Any other
business, leave your name and number.
242
00:16:00,392 --> 00:16:02,326
Yeah, this is Robert Redford.
243
00:16:02,494 --> 00:16:04,962
I'm seeking new representation.
244
00:16:05,130 --> 00:16:06,927
Sorry you were out.
245
00:16:34,059 --> 00:16:38,428
Ladies and gentlemen, may I propose
a toast to our beautiful leading lady?
246
00:16:38,597 --> 00:16:40,326
- Bravo.
- Bravo.
247
00:16:42,501 --> 00:16:44,594
May I have your autograph?
248
00:16:48,474 --> 00:16:49,964
Thank you.
249
00:16:52,344 --> 00:16:54,335
Cue the waiter.
250
00:16:54,713 --> 00:16:56,578
And we start to zoom in.
251
00:16:56,749 --> 00:17:00,742
We zoom in even tighter.
Sparkey looks at it, smells it.
252
00:17:01,854 --> 00:17:03,685
It smells terrible.
253
00:17:03,856 --> 00:17:07,519
He looks around and says,
"Where is Supo? Where is my dog food?"
254
00:17:07,693 --> 00:17:09,422
- Look at that éclair.
- Cut!
255
00:17:09,661 --> 00:17:10,889
- Joe?
- What?
256
00:17:11,063 --> 00:17:12,291
- Miss Marsh?
- Here!
257
00:17:12,464 --> 00:17:14,159
Where is she?
258
00:17:14,333 --> 00:17:16,392
Wanna come over here
where the work is?
259
00:17:16,568 --> 00:17:18,934
I'd pick Supo dog food over that.
260
00:17:19,104 --> 00:17:22,232
If you're gonna take so long
between takes, it's gonna melt.
261
00:17:22,408 --> 00:17:26,174
It has to be a beautiful éclair.
The most beautiful éclair in the world!
262
00:17:26,345 --> 00:17:30,281
I've got an entire refrigerator full.
Would you bring another pastry, Jeff?
263
00:17:30,883 --> 00:17:32,145
Tell everybody to relax.
264
00:17:32,317 --> 00:17:36,117
Background people, you can relax,
but please do not wander off.
265
00:17:36,288 --> 00:17:38,415
Now, let me hear that playback.
266
00:17:41,827 --> 00:17:44,625
Excuse me, may I have this dance?
Thank you very much.
267
00:17:44,797 --> 00:17:46,355
- What are you doing here?
- Dancing.
268
00:17:46,532 --> 00:17:48,159
- Are you crazy?
- I am on a high.
269
00:17:48,333 --> 00:17:50,767
- Well, come down.
- Oh, don't be sore.
270
00:17:50,936 --> 00:17:53,166
- I am working.
- You're on a break.
271
00:17:53,338 --> 00:17:54,669
You wanna help us out, Jo?
272
00:17:54,840 --> 00:17:56,068
- Goodbye.
- Hello.
273
00:17:56,241 --> 00:17:58,106
- It's a prop.
- You want me to leave?
274
00:17:58,277 --> 00:18:02,941
Okay, I'll leave. You know why?
I'll leave because I'm a very nice person.
275
00:18:03,115 --> 00:18:06,141
- I'm one of the nicest people you know.
- I don't know you.
276
00:18:06,318 --> 00:18:07,842
I'm working on it.
277
00:18:08,020 --> 00:18:09,749
Let's take it from the beginning.
278
00:18:09,922 --> 00:18:13,119
Wanna put us on the bell, Tommy?
People, it's picture time.
279
00:18:13,292 --> 00:18:16,625
Look, if you're not in the shot,
will you please clear out?
280
00:18:16,795 --> 00:18:18,956
Thank you very much.
281
00:18:19,131 --> 00:18:21,463
People, we're laughing
our way into overtime.
282
00:18:21,633 --> 00:18:23,533
Chop-chop. Where's the waiter?
283
00:18:23,702 --> 00:18:24,930
All right, we ready?
284
00:18:25,104 --> 00:18:26,332
Doggie ready?
285
00:18:26,505 --> 00:18:27,733
- Sound ready?
- Ready.
286
00:18:27,906 --> 00:18:29,134
- Okay. Milo?
- Ready.
287
00:18:29,308 --> 00:18:31,435
Let's go. Roll them!
288
00:18:31,743 --> 00:18:34,007
- Speed.
- And...
289
00:18:34,179 --> 00:18:36,147
...action!
290
00:18:47,459 --> 00:18:50,656
- That didn't take too long.
- Another 20 minutes, golden time.
291
00:18:50,829 --> 00:18:53,855
- You guys wanna share a cab?
- Anybody need a ride home?
292
00:18:54,032 --> 00:18:56,557
Look, I'm gonna leave
the wardrobe here for now.
293
00:18:56,735 --> 00:18:58,168
That'll be fine.
294
00:18:58,337 --> 00:18:59,804
What about the props?
295
00:18:59,972 --> 00:19:04,432
Don't worry about it. Organize as best you
can, and we'll return everything tomorrow.
296
00:19:04,610 --> 00:19:07,010
- Go home and get some sleep.
- Okay, all right.
297
00:19:07,179 --> 00:19:09,875
- How about some coffee?
- I don't believe it.
298
00:19:10,048 --> 00:19:13,643
- I'll even spring for a Danish.
- What are you doing here?
299
00:19:14,553 --> 00:19:16,885
Just felt like being with somebody.
300
00:19:17,322 --> 00:19:18,880
Don't you have any friends?
301
00:19:20,125 --> 00:19:21,558
Not a lot. Do you?
302
00:19:21,727 --> 00:19:23,354
Hundreds.
303
00:19:23,896 --> 00:19:25,295
Give or take a few.
304
00:19:26,064 --> 00:19:28,191
Come on, we'll have
some coffee together.
305
00:19:28,367 --> 00:19:30,892
Wait till you hear
what happened to me tonight.
306
00:19:31,069 --> 00:19:32,627
I can't.
307
00:19:32,804 --> 00:19:36,433
You can't? We can share
a taxi home together.
308
00:19:36,975 --> 00:19:38,875
I got a ride.
309
00:19:40,045 --> 00:19:43,811
Is it something special,
or is it just a ride?
310
00:19:45,284 --> 00:19:46,911
Look...
311
00:19:47,452 --> 00:19:50,478
...l've got nothing
against you personally.
312
00:19:51,190 --> 00:19:54,648
You're a guy in condition,
and I'm a girl across the hall.
313
00:19:54,826 --> 00:19:57,124
Why shouldn't you try?
But as it happens...
314
00:19:58,230 --> 00:20:01,222
Come on, let's get out of here. I'm tired.
315
00:20:23,655 --> 00:20:24,883
Hey.
316
00:20:25,057 --> 00:20:27,048
Come on, I'll buy you some coffee.
317
00:20:30,762 --> 00:20:34,323
You will never believe
what happened to me tonight.
318
00:20:35,100 --> 00:20:37,864
You know a little grocery store
on Bleecker Street?
319
00:20:38,303 --> 00:20:39,531
Well...
320
00:20:40,272 --> 00:20:44,140
...I was in this costume to promote
this film. It's called Captain Avenger.
321
00:20:44,309 --> 00:20:46,174
I had a cape and the boots.
322
00:20:46,511 --> 00:20:47,739
Mr. And Mrs. Rothberg...
323
00:20:47,913 --> 00:20:50,939
...has this neighborhood changed
in the years you've been here?
324
00:20:51,116 --> 00:20:55,018
Yes, it changed, it changed.
As a matter of fact, we were talking...
325
00:20:55,187 --> 00:20:57,655
...maybe we should sell the store
and move away.
326
00:20:57,823 --> 00:21:01,088
- After 33 years.
- Yeah, but after last night...
327
00:21:01,260 --> 00:21:03,490
Oh, that sort of gives you hope.
328
00:21:03,662 --> 00:21:06,426
Have you any idea really
who that man was last night?
329
00:21:06,598 --> 00:21:08,429
Certainly. It was...
330
00:21:08,600 --> 00:21:10,534
...Captain Avenger.
331
00:21:10,702 --> 00:21:14,365
Yeah, look, believe me, you can't miss it.
332
00:21:15,274 --> 00:21:19,210
Mr. And Mrs. Rothberg, Captain Avenger
is a character in the comic books.
333
00:21:19,378 --> 00:21:24,714
Well, I don't care where he comes from.
A man comes into the store...
334
00:21:24,883 --> 00:21:29,149
...takes care of a couple of punks
that try to cut my throat.
335
00:21:29,354 --> 00:21:31,948
What should I do,
ask him for a driver's license?
336
00:21:32,124 --> 00:21:34,115
Do you need any more proof?
337
00:21:35,227 --> 00:21:39,527
Hey, J.?
J., turn on your television set, hurry!
338
00:21:39,698 --> 00:21:41,222
Mrs. Havacheck.
339
00:21:41,400 --> 00:21:42,628
I got excited.
340
00:21:42,801 --> 00:21:44,962
I'm not interested in your personal life.
341
00:21:45,137 --> 00:21:47,799
- No, I'm on television now.
- Without your trousers?
342
00:21:47,973 --> 00:21:51,932
- They're talking about me.
- I wouldn't doubt it. Today is the 15th.
343
00:21:52,110 --> 00:21:55,375
- That makes your rent two weeks overdue.
- Oh, yeah, the rent.
344
00:21:55,547 --> 00:21:57,242
You know how it is with actors...
345
00:21:57,416 --> 00:22:01,011
I studied with Ouspenskaya.
I appeared with Le Gallienne.
346
00:22:01,186 --> 00:22:03,177
- I toured with Barrymore.
- You told me.
347
00:22:03,355 --> 00:22:04,686
We played the classics.
348
00:22:04,856 --> 00:22:08,485
It's a long time between classics now,
so I did this commercial...
349
00:22:08,660 --> 00:22:11,026
Mr. Nichols, commercials
do not an actor make.
350
00:22:11,196 --> 00:22:12,424
It's the best I can do.
351
00:22:12,597 --> 00:22:16,431
If you wish to remain a tenant here,
pay rent on the first of each month.
352
00:22:16,601 --> 00:22:19,229
Don't come in the hall
without your trousers!
353
00:22:19,404 --> 00:22:22,498
At least you can walk on
the street at night like a person.
354
00:22:22,674 --> 00:22:25,165
Thank you very, very much,
Mr. And Mrs. Rothberg.
355
00:22:25,344 --> 00:22:29,440
Calls have been coming to the switchboard
expressing gratitude. But to whom?
356
00:22:29,614 --> 00:22:31,775
Who is Captain Avenger,
the man behind the mask?
357
00:22:31,950 --> 00:22:33,212
It's me, Steve Nichols.
358
00:22:33,385 --> 00:22:36,252
Surprisingly, there is
little curiosity about that.
359
00:22:36,421 --> 00:22:41,120
Some people have stated flatly they
really don't want to know his true identity.
360
00:22:41,293 --> 00:22:44,854
You can tell a child that
Santa Claus is on Macy's payroll.
361
00:22:45,030 --> 00:22:47,999
He may believe you, but he
really won't thank you for it.
362
00:22:48,166 --> 00:22:51,624
So perhaps the question is not,
"Who are you, Captain Avenger?"
363
00:22:51,803 --> 00:22:53,668
But, "What next, Captain Avenger?"
364
00:22:53,839 --> 00:22:55,431
What do you mean, "What next?"
365
00:22:55,607 --> 00:22:56,835
- Channel Two News...
366
00:22:58,210 --> 00:23:00,804
All right, I'm coming, I'm coming.
367
00:23:00,979 --> 00:23:02,503
Wait for me, I'm coming with you.
368
00:23:02,681 --> 00:23:04,945
Come on, catch up.
369
00:23:05,117 --> 00:23:07,813
Eight weeks away from Election Day...
370
00:23:08,320 --> 00:23:09,548
...and look at us.
371
00:23:09,721 --> 00:23:11,951
A lot can happen in eight weeks.
372
00:23:12,124 --> 00:23:13,853
It better.
373
00:23:14,025 --> 00:23:15,424
He hasn't been a bad mayor.
374
00:23:15,594 --> 00:23:19,894
There's a great campaign slogan.
"He hasn't been a bad mayor."
375
00:23:20,098 --> 00:23:23,795
We've focused on a solid responsible job
over the past four years.
376
00:23:24,169 --> 00:23:27,468
And they focused on subway crime,
blackouts, garbage strikes...
377
00:23:27,639 --> 00:23:29,732
...and laid it all on him.
And where are you?
378
00:23:29,908 --> 00:23:31,136
That's New York.
379
00:23:31,309 --> 00:23:33,334
The incumbent is always under attack.
380
00:23:33,512 --> 00:23:35,343
Tell me something I don't know.
381
00:23:35,514 --> 00:23:38,074
The bottom line is they're killing us!
382
00:23:38,250 --> 00:23:39,717
We're trailing in the polls.
383
00:23:39,885 --> 00:23:43,480
The New York Times poll,
the Lou Harris poll, the 6:00 news.
384
00:23:43,655 --> 00:23:48,718
Fine, we'll shift emphasis
away from his record to his personality.
385
00:23:48,894 --> 00:23:50,987
Except you and I both know...
386
00:23:51,296 --> 00:23:52,661
...he hasn't got one.
387
00:23:53,732 --> 00:23:55,700
Your name's on the door out there.
388
00:23:55,867 --> 00:23:59,132
You are the high-priced PR genius.
389
00:23:59,304 --> 00:24:00,771
Work it out.
390
00:24:01,940 --> 00:24:03,430
Calvin, take it easy.
391
00:24:03,608 --> 00:24:07,009
We're coasting, Walter.
We need some fresh ideas.
392
00:24:07,179 --> 00:24:09,875
I don't know what they are,
but I know we need them.
393
00:24:10,048 --> 00:24:13,347
I'll be expecting to hear something
from you by the end of the week.
394
00:24:13,518 --> 00:24:16,043
- You're really pushing me, Calvin.
- You're right.
395
00:24:16,221 --> 00:24:17,620
I am.
396
00:24:18,890 --> 00:24:21,290
Hey, I've got great news.
Look, can we talk?
397
00:24:21,460 --> 00:24:22,950
Yeah, yeah.
398
00:24:23,128 --> 00:24:25,289
Linda, keep holding the calls.
399
00:24:27,165 --> 00:24:29,429
Grosses are in
on the Captain Avenger flick.
400
00:24:29,601 --> 00:24:33,401
- Lines around the block.
- Lines, Walter, lines to see that turkey.
401
00:24:33,572 --> 00:24:36,006
People are going nuts
on account of last night.
402
00:24:36,174 --> 00:24:38,904
They're calling in.
Radio stations, television stations...
403
00:24:39,077 --> 00:24:41,807
...even City Hall, to say they're happy.
404
00:24:41,980 --> 00:24:43,641
And they're going to see the movie.
405
00:24:43,815 --> 00:24:48,514
When that kook walked in that store, it was
the best thing that ever happened to us.
406
00:24:48,687 --> 00:24:51,281
- We got a hit.
- Two reporters called in here.
407
00:24:51,456 --> 00:24:53,219
Now, I told Linda to stall them...
408
00:24:53,391 --> 00:24:57,259
...till we could figure out what we wanted
to say. Now, what do you think?
409
00:25:01,766 --> 00:25:03,631
What do I think?
410
00:25:04,936 --> 00:25:06,699
You know what I think?
411
00:25:07,506 --> 00:25:11,033
I think Captain Avenger
just saved the mayor's ass.
412
00:25:11,877 --> 00:25:15,176
You guys hired those yo-yos to cover
the theaters. How many were there?
413
00:25:15,347 --> 00:25:16,905
Sixty-two.
414
00:25:17,082 --> 00:25:20,677
- Did they keep the outfits?
- Yeah, for the matinee this afternoon.
415
00:25:22,621 --> 00:25:23,952
Okay. Okay.
416
00:25:24,122 --> 00:25:29,617
You tell them to hang on to those suits.
Tell them they're gonna wear them again.
417
00:25:29,794 --> 00:25:31,625
And maybe...
418
00:25:31,796 --> 00:25:36,256
...one of our 62 Captain Avengers
will make another special appearance.
419
00:25:36,434 --> 00:25:40,268
- How do we know it's one of ours?
- A freak could've made his own costume.
420
00:25:40,438 --> 00:25:41,666
No, no.
421
00:25:41,840 --> 00:25:44,604
I know it in my heart. I know it.
It's one of ours.
422
00:25:44,776 --> 00:25:48,041
- You guys are gonna find him.
- You want us to bring him in?
423
00:25:48,213 --> 00:25:52,775
No. If he wanted us to know who he was,
we'd have heard from him by now.
424
00:25:52,951 --> 00:25:55,112
No, I want you
to check them out, quietly.
425
00:25:55,287 --> 00:25:58,256
Find out which one could do it
and which one would do it.
426
00:25:58,657 --> 00:26:00,921
And get out word
that one of them is missing.
427
00:26:01,092 --> 00:26:02,957
The guy?
428
00:26:03,128 --> 00:26:04,720
A costume.
429
00:26:05,564 --> 00:26:10,399
Tell them it was stolen. That'll confuse
anybody who's trying to find out who he is.
430
00:26:10,602 --> 00:26:14,333
- I still say it could be anybody.
- That's why my name is on the door...
431
00:26:14,506 --> 00:26:18,966
...and not yours. Gentlemen, what
we have here is a golden opportunity.
432
00:26:19,144 --> 00:26:22,545
Let us take it firmly by the private parts.
433
00:26:41,866 --> 00:26:43,629
My God.
434
00:26:43,802 --> 00:26:46,293
The more I see it, the less I believe it.
435
00:26:46,471 --> 00:26:48,496
- Can I have your autograph?
- Sure.
436
00:26:50,475 --> 00:26:54,639
Chuck, set up over there.
Tom, go get Captain Avenger. Let's go.
437
00:26:54,813 --> 00:26:58,772
- Captain Avenger, you're the man.
- All right.
438
00:27:01,119 --> 00:27:05,055
Gloria Preston would like to interview you
for television. You mind coming over here?
439
00:27:05,223 --> 00:27:07,123
Oh, okay.
440
00:27:09,761 --> 00:27:11,319
Okay.
441
00:27:11,496 --> 00:27:14,897
We're here at the Greenwich Theater
in New York's West Village...
442
00:27:15,066 --> 00:27:19,526
...where a large crowd's gathered to meet
or just catch a glimpse at Captain Avenger.
443
00:27:19,704 --> 00:27:22,366
- Hi, how are you?
- Hi, I'm fine.
444
00:27:22,540 --> 00:27:23,837
This is my seventh stop.
445
00:27:24,009 --> 00:27:27,001
People in Brooklyn are doing this,
and all around Queens.
446
00:27:27,178 --> 00:27:29,612
As a matter of fact,
all over greater New York.
447
00:27:29,781 --> 00:27:31,908
What do you think of all this attention?
448
00:27:32,083 --> 00:27:35,314
- Well, I think it's really terrific.
- It sure sells tickets.
449
00:27:35,487 --> 00:27:38,183
Yeah, it sells tickets,
but that's not what I meant.
450
00:27:38,356 --> 00:27:42,383
Let me ask you the same question I've
asked a half a dozen Captain Avengers.
451
00:27:42,560 --> 00:27:44,653
Where were you last night at 10:00?
452
00:27:46,831 --> 00:27:48,856
I was having dinner with a girl.
453
00:27:50,735 --> 00:27:53,829
- Would you like to introduce yourself?
- Oh, sure.
454
00:27:54,005 --> 00:27:57,168
- My name is Steve Nichols.
- An actor, model or what?
455
00:27:57,342 --> 00:27:58,832
I'm an actor.
456
00:27:59,010 --> 00:28:02,241
Let me ask you something.
How do you account for this turnout?
457
00:28:02,414 --> 00:28:06,441
You think people may be here on the chance
that you're the Captain Avenger...
458
00:28:06,618 --> 00:28:08,017
...the grocery-store hero?
459
00:28:08,553 --> 00:28:12,455
I don't think so. Unfortunately, I don't
think it has anything to do with me.
460
00:28:12,624 --> 00:28:13,852
What then?
461
00:28:14,025 --> 00:28:17,927
Well, I think it's the idea.
462
00:28:18,096 --> 00:28:19,461
- The idea?
- Yeah, you know...
463
00:28:19,631 --> 00:28:21,758
...what Captain Avenger stands for.
464
00:28:21,933 --> 00:28:24,094
What's right and for justice.
465
00:28:24,269 --> 00:28:26,169
And I think these people like that.
466
00:28:26,337 --> 00:28:32,333
You know? Yeah. You see, Captain Avenger
looks out for the little guy, and he wins.
467
00:28:32,510 --> 00:28:33,909
I mean, it makes...
468
00:28:34,079 --> 00:28:37,344
It makes people feel like
they have a chance, you know?
469
00:28:37,515 --> 00:28:38,812
Well...
470
00:28:38,983 --> 00:28:42,885
...we've just heard from Steve Nichols,
one of the 62 Captain Avengers...
471
00:28:43,054 --> 00:28:46,512
...making appearances at movie theaters
all around New York...
472
00:28:46,691 --> 00:28:49,592
...and giving his thoughts
on what this is all about.
473
00:28:49,761 --> 00:28:51,661
An idea come to life...
474
00:28:51,830 --> 00:28:55,926
...out of the comic section onto
the front pages to make us all feel better.
475
00:28:56,101 --> 00:28:57,796
Well, it sounds good to me.
476
00:28:57,969 --> 00:29:01,461
Hooray for Captain Avenger,
and Mickey Mouse for president.
477
00:29:01,639 --> 00:29:04,699
This is Gloria Preston
from Greenwich Village.
478
00:29:15,787 --> 00:29:17,118
Hi.
479
00:29:17,689 --> 00:29:20,021
Hi. J. Marsh. We're neighbors.
480
00:29:20,191 --> 00:29:23,058
I'm sorry,
my head was someplace else. Hi.
481
00:29:24,462 --> 00:29:25,690
About last night, l...
482
00:29:25,864 --> 00:29:28,298
Listen, I'm sorry
I barged in on you like that.
483
00:29:28,466 --> 00:29:29,831
No, I could've been nicer.
484
00:29:30,001 --> 00:29:31,559
No, that was way out of line.
485
00:29:31,736 --> 00:29:36,139
- I've been a little bit uptight lately.
- That's okay. It's my fault.
486
00:29:38,910 --> 00:29:41,470
Well...
487
00:29:44,716 --> 00:29:48,015
- No, I got it. It's okay. Yeah.
- Okay?
488
00:29:53,725 --> 00:29:55,693
Hi.
489
00:29:55,860 --> 00:29:57,760
I knocked on your door this morning.
490
00:29:58,329 --> 00:30:00,820
Yeah, about 8:30.
You're a pretty sound sleeper.
491
00:30:00,999 --> 00:30:02,626
I spent the night out.
492
00:30:04,269 --> 00:30:06,362
That was a special ride, wasn't it?
493
00:30:08,072 --> 00:30:09,869
With an old friend.
494
00:30:10,041 --> 00:30:13,477
By any chance, does that old friend
live on East 66th Street?
495
00:30:13,645 --> 00:30:16,671
- Who are you, J. Edgar Hoover?
- No.
496
00:30:16,848 --> 00:30:18,611
I'm Captain Avenger.
497
00:30:19,184 --> 00:30:20,481
- Right.
- Hey.
498
00:30:20,652 --> 00:30:22,813
You heard about
what happened last night?
499
00:30:22,987 --> 00:30:25,114
- How could I help it?
- What do you think?
500
00:30:25,290 --> 00:30:27,121
The world is full of weirdos.
501
00:30:30,328 --> 00:30:32,353
That's it? He's a weirdo?
502
00:30:32,530 --> 00:30:34,122
Probably stoned out of his mind...
503
00:30:34,299 --> 00:30:36,995
...sitting around today trying
to figure out how he did it.
504
00:30:38,236 --> 00:30:40,670
You have a terrific way
of looking at things.
505
00:30:41,206 --> 00:30:45,370
I traded my rose-colored glasses
in for a crash course in karate...
506
00:30:45,543 --> 00:30:49,309
...and a funny little fountain pen
that shoots tear gas up to five feet.
507
00:30:50,114 --> 00:30:52,412
I'll keep my distance.
508
00:30:54,252 --> 00:30:56,379
Why'd you knock on my door
this morning?
509
00:30:57,355 --> 00:30:59,220
I was gonna tell you a funny story.
510
00:30:59,424 --> 00:31:02,188
I'm not the best audience at 8:30.
511
00:31:02,360 --> 00:31:05,523
- Well, you would've laughed at this one.
- So tell me.
512
00:31:07,365 --> 00:31:09,526
I forgot the punch line.
513
00:31:15,640 --> 00:31:20,634
Ever since we met,
I can't think of anyone but you.
514
00:31:20,812 --> 00:31:23,110
You are my whole life.
515
00:31:23,281 --> 00:31:26,011
My reason for being.
516
00:31:26,484 --> 00:31:28,418
You mustn't say things like that.
517
00:31:30,655 --> 00:31:33,624
I have to say what's true.
518
00:31:33,791 --> 00:31:37,557
I don't understand.
I don't know what you want.
519
00:31:37,729 --> 00:31:40,596
I want to surround you.
520
00:31:40,832 --> 00:31:42,993
To possess you.
521
00:31:43,167 --> 00:31:45,658
To absorb you.
522
00:31:46,037 --> 00:31:47,595
No.
523
00:31:48,706 --> 00:31:50,071
Why are you turning away?
524
00:31:50,241 --> 00:31:55,804
I'm sorry. I can't do this.
I mean, he and I. Look at us.
525
00:31:55,980 --> 00:31:58,574
That's all right, Steve.
Thank you very much.
526
00:31:59,651 --> 00:32:02,051
No, I'm sorry. I'll try it again.
527
00:32:02,220 --> 00:32:03,448
It won't be necessary.
528
00:32:03,621 --> 00:32:06,749
No, no. I'm used to it now.
Really. If I could try it again.
529
00:32:06,958 --> 00:32:10,394
I have a number of other people
waiting to read, okay?
530
00:32:10,895 --> 00:32:12,260
Thank you.
531
00:32:16,134 --> 00:32:17,863
I guess I blew it, huh?
532
00:32:18,036 --> 00:32:20,869
No. No, that was lovely. Really.
533
00:32:21,105 --> 00:32:22,333
Nice.
534
00:32:22,507 --> 00:32:24,907
Okay. Thank you.
535
00:32:26,044 --> 00:32:27,841
Yes.
536
00:32:31,716 --> 00:32:33,445
Who's next?
537
00:32:53,738 --> 00:32:55,729
Mr. Nichols?
538
00:32:55,907 --> 00:32:57,499
Mrs. Havacheck.
539
00:32:57,675 --> 00:33:02,874
I know, about the rent. I'm sure there is
a residual check in my mailbox right now.
540
00:33:03,047 --> 00:33:04,605
It's so overdue.
541
00:33:04,782 --> 00:33:06,409
Sometimes these things happen.
542
00:33:06,584 --> 00:33:10,042
Agents have to take out their commission,
the computers foul up.
543
00:33:10,221 --> 00:33:12,815
But I'm sure it's here.
544
00:33:13,024 --> 00:33:15,083
It's not here.
545
00:33:15,259 --> 00:33:17,250
I can't... Can you believe this?
546
00:33:17,428 --> 00:33:20,363
They're running my commercial
all the time. You've seen it?
547
00:33:20,531 --> 00:33:22,556
I only watch public broadcasting.
548
00:33:22,734 --> 00:33:24,497
Oh, well...
549
00:33:24,669 --> 00:33:27,866
I'm gonna call my agent right now
and raise hell.
550
00:33:28,039 --> 00:33:30,337
It's not fair to you,
and it's not fair to me.
551
00:33:32,210 --> 00:33:34,178
Hello.
552
00:33:34,345 --> 00:33:35,835
I haven't seen you for a while.
553
00:33:41,753 --> 00:33:45,553
- How's the acting business?
- I wouldn't know.
554
00:33:49,060 --> 00:33:53,121
- You look great.
- Thank you.
555
00:33:54,499 --> 00:33:59,869
- Well, see you later.
- Okay.
556
00:34:02,573 --> 00:34:08,569
- Tonight, Mr. Nichols, or else.
- Give me a break, will you?
557
00:34:08,913 --> 00:34:12,679
Authorities are still wondering who the man
in the red, blue and yellow costume...
558
00:34:12,850 --> 00:34:15,512
...with a large A on his chest really is.
559
00:34:15,686 --> 00:34:19,452
Carol, it's almost the end of the broadcast.
Any reports of Captain Avenger?
560
00:34:19,624 --> 00:34:23,116
Not yet, Rolland, but, you know,
calls have continued to come in all week...
561
00:34:23,294 --> 00:34:25,922
...with people saying they feel good
about what happened.
562
00:34:26,097 --> 00:34:28,588
- Apparently we still need heroes.
- Seems that we do.
563
00:34:28,766 --> 00:34:30,961
And that's Channel Two News.
Good night, Carol.
564
00:34:31,135 --> 00:34:35,731
Good night, Rolland. And good night,
Captain Avenger, wherever you are.
565
00:35:01,732 --> 00:35:03,825
Twenty-seven Adam.
In pursuit of gray sedan...
566
00:35:04,001 --> 00:35:06,265
...headed north
on Third and 21 st Street. Over.
567
00:35:06,437 --> 00:35:09,736
Twenty-seven Adam. Transmission garbled.
Repeat. Over.
568
00:35:11,809 --> 00:35:14,471
Twenty-seven Adam,
what is your current location? Over.
569
00:35:19,117 --> 00:35:22,883
In pursuit of gray sedan, New York license
287-Frank-David-Henry.
570
00:35:23,054 --> 00:35:26,114
Headed west on 25th Street. Over.
571
00:35:30,528 --> 00:35:34,794
Twenty-seven Adam on 27th and Lex.
I've lost them.
572
00:35:35,633 --> 00:35:40,195
Any unit in the vicinity of 27th
and Lexington, we have lost gray sedan.
573
00:35:40,371 --> 00:35:43,829
License 287-Frank-David-Henry.
574
00:35:44,008 --> 00:35:45,873
All units respond. Over.
575
00:36:27,118 --> 00:36:29,177
Pull over, man!
576
00:37:06,157 --> 00:37:09,684
- Hey, you, get the hell out of here.
- It's over, guys. It's over, fellas.
577
00:37:27,044 --> 00:37:29,877
Hold it right there.
Don't make another move.
578
00:37:31,048 --> 00:37:33,243
Bullshit.
579
00:37:33,417 --> 00:37:35,282
Let's go. Let's go.
580
00:37:43,628 --> 00:37:45,721
- Okay, on the ground.
- Right there.
581
00:38:18,396 --> 00:38:19,886
Good night.
582
00:38:39,950 --> 00:38:41,474
J.
583
00:38:41,652 --> 00:38:47,181
- Hi, J.
- S. Nichols, is that you?
584
00:38:47,858 --> 00:38:52,192
Drunk as a skunk. What have you got on?
585
00:38:52,363 --> 00:38:55,332
It's a gag, right?
You've been to a costume party.
586
00:38:55,499 --> 00:38:57,660
- I wish.
- Then what?
587
00:39:00,037 --> 00:39:03,336
I got a little carried away this time.
588
00:39:03,941 --> 00:39:09,277
- You're not gonna tell me... S. Nichols is...
- Captain Avenger.
589
00:39:09,447 --> 00:39:11,540
- I don't believe it.
- It's true.
590
00:39:11,716 --> 00:39:13,479
What is it?
591
00:39:13,651 --> 00:39:15,642
J., they got me.
592
00:39:17,855 --> 00:39:20,380
You haven't got a bullet in there?
593
00:39:20,558 --> 00:39:21,991
But you were shot?
594
00:39:22,159 --> 00:39:24,252
- We better get you in your apartment.
- Locked.
595
00:39:24,428 --> 00:39:28,125
- What?
- I didn't pay the rent.
596
00:39:28,299 --> 00:39:30,426
Mrs. Havacheck,
you are a wonderful person.
597
00:39:30,601 --> 00:39:34,435
- Isn't she?
- Well, you can't just stay here.
598
00:39:34,939 --> 00:39:37,032
- I better get you into my apartment.
- Okay.
599
00:39:37,208 --> 00:39:39,335
- Can you stand up?
- Yeah, I think so.
600
00:39:39,510 --> 00:39:41,478
Put your arm around me.
601
00:39:41,645 --> 00:39:43,272
Okay.
602
00:39:46,117 --> 00:39:50,178
- Lean on me.
- Oh, yeah, that helps.
603
00:39:50,354 --> 00:39:54,654
- You don't look that heavy.
- I'm really sorry you have to deal with this.
604
00:39:54,825 --> 00:39:58,283
- You and me both.
- It's not too serious. It stopped bleeding.
605
00:39:58,462 --> 00:40:03,900
Don't talk, especially about bleeding.
I have a little problem with that.
606
00:40:05,102 --> 00:40:06,694
- Sorry.
- It's okay.
607
00:40:08,506 --> 00:40:11,669
- You have a doctor?
- Yes, I do.
608
00:40:13,878 --> 00:40:18,281
- Only he's back in Cawker City, Kansas.
- Figures.
609
00:40:19,383 --> 00:40:22,045
- Oh, this is nice.
- I'll call Emergency.
610
00:40:22,219 --> 00:40:26,178
Oh, no, please. I'll be all right.
All I need is to rest for a while.
611
00:40:26,357 --> 00:40:28,791
Please don't.
They have to report gunshot wounds.
612
00:40:28,959 --> 00:40:32,690
I'll be fine. I just need to rest. It's okay.
613
00:40:32,863 --> 00:40:36,993
Oh, see. Oh, yeah.
Well, now I'm better already.
614
00:40:41,439 --> 00:40:43,498
Okay.
615
00:40:43,674 --> 00:40:47,132
I don't know which one of us is crazier,
but okay.
616
00:40:47,812 --> 00:40:52,442
Of all the beds in all the apartments
in all of New York City...
617
00:40:54,785 --> 00:40:57,185
...Captain Avenger ends up in mine.
618
00:41:01,325 --> 00:41:04,817
Tell him that I want what I want
when I want it.
619
00:41:04,995 --> 00:41:08,055
And remind him that I'll be around
no matter who wins the election.
620
00:41:08,232 --> 00:41:13,568
Just let him know very gently
that I'll always be around, got it?
621
00:41:15,739 --> 00:41:18,833
- You're late.
- I know. I'm sorry, Cal.
622
00:41:19,009 --> 00:41:21,637
- But have I got an idea.
- Well, I'm sorry too...
623
00:41:21,812 --> 00:41:25,043
...because it's too little, and it's too late.
You're through, Walter.
624
00:41:25,216 --> 00:41:28,083
- What?
- We fell four points in the latest poll.
625
00:41:28,252 --> 00:41:29,549
I know, I know. I saw this.
626
00:41:29,720 --> 00:41:33,816
Now, I've got to level with you,
I'm talking to an aggressive young man...
627
00:41:33,991 --> 00:41:38,121
...with some bright ideas. He's hungry,
and that makes people aggressive.
628
00:41:38,295 --> 00:41:42,823
Really? Can he bring you the election
in a box? Giftwrapped?
629
00:41:43,000 --> 00:41:45,025
Can he do that, Calvin?
630
00:41:45,202 --> 00:41:47,261
What are you talking about?
631
00:41:48,172 --> 00:41:51,300
Captain Avenger,
that's what I'm talking about.
632
00:41:51,475 --> 00:41:53,909
How do you like what's been happening?
633
00:41:54,078 --> 00:41:56,603
How would you like him to keep it up?
634
00:41:57,181 --> 00:42:00,548
How would you like it if he stayed in action
right up until Election Day?
635
00:42:00,718 --> 00:42:02,982
- What's the point?
- The point is...
636
00:42:03,153 --> 00:42:07,681
...when the people feel good about the city,
they feel good about the administration.
637
00:42:07,858 --> 00:42:11,794
Well, the people feel good
about the city today because of him.
638
00:42:12,763 --> 00:42:14,788
A comic-book hero?
639
00:42:14,965 --> 00:42:19,527
Read the papers, Calvin. Watch the news.
New York loves Captain Avenger.
640
00:42:21,005 --> 00:42:22,870
Who is he, Walter?
641
00:42:26,310 --> 00:42:28,938
You can tell him what to do
and when to do it?
642
00:42:29,113 --> 00:42:31,741
I set up the whole thing.
I took a third-rate movie...
643
00:42:31,916 --> 00:42:34,942
...made it the biggest hit of the year
with a simple gimmick:
644
00:42:35,119 --> 00:42:37,747
"Captain Avenger
comes to your neighborhood."
645
00:42:39,356 --> 00:42:43,224
- Who is he?
- Come on, Calvin.
646
00:42:47,231 --> 00:42:50,632
Okay. Okay.
647
00:42:50,801 --> 00:42:55,795
- But there'll have to be a closer connection.
- You bet. Photographs for the media.
648
00:42:55,973 --> 00:42:57,873
Captain Avenger meets the mayor.
649
00:42:58,042 --> 00:43:00,875
Two crusaders working together
toward a common goal...
650
00:43:01,045 --> 00:43:04,071
...a better life for the people of New York.
It is a natural.
651
00:43:04,248 --> 00:43:07,274
You'll have to do a lot of bigger stuff
with a lot more witnesses.
652
00:43:07,451 --> 00:43:10,147
- Can you arrange that?
- It's already in the planning stage.
653
00:43:10,321 --> 00:43:13,381
Oh, Walter. Walter.
654
00:43:13,557 --> 00:43:15,457
I was writing you off.
655
00:43:28,238 --> 00:43:30,798
- S. Nichols?
- Oh, yeah, hi.
656
00:43:30,975 --> 00:43:34,172
- What are you doing?
- I'm just freshening my breath.
657
00:43:34,345 --> 00:43:36,438
Get back in bed.
658
00:43:36,614 --> 00:43:40,209
Also fighting tooth decay.
A hero's work is never done.
659
00:43:40,384 --> 00:43:42,909
Get back in bed.
660
00:43:43,454 --> 00:43:45,718
I love the way you say that.
661
00:43:45,889 --> 00:43:47,686
Are you hungry?
662
00:43:47,858 --> 00:43:49,985
Oh, no, no, I couldn't eat right now.
663
00:43:50,728 --> 00:43:53,993
- Good, then we can get this over with.
- Get what over with?
664
00:43:54,865 --> 00:43:59,393
This very nice man at the pharmacy
told me exactly what to do.
665
00:44:00,104 --> 00:44:03,437
- I told him my dog had an accident.
- With a gun?
666
00:44:03,907 --> 00:44:07,968
He didn't know it was loaded.
After all, he's only a dog.
667
00:44:10,681 --> 00:44:12,774
It's only fair to warn you...
668
00:44:12,950 --> 00:44:16,181
...I am not experienced at this sort of thing
and may faint.
669
00:44:16,353 --> 00:44:19,288
Look, J., I don't expect you
to take care of me.
670
00:44:20,024 --> 00:44:21,321
Who do you suggest?
671
00:44:22,159 --> 00:44:24,150
You're such a good neighbor.
672
00:44:24,928 --> 00:44:30,423
Did you, by any chance, pick this up
in the vicinity of Park and 52nd?
673
00:44:31,502 --> 00:44:33,766
How did you know that?
674
00:44:33,937 --> 00:44:37,839
The guy that shot you wants credit.
But since nobody else saw you...
675
00:44:38,008 --> 00:44:40,738
...he's having a hard time proving it.
676
00:44:41,645 --> 00:44:44,978
I picked this up
in case you keep a scrapbook.
677
00:44:51,422 --> 00:44:53,913
A quarter-million dollars
worth of angel dust?
678
00:44:54,358 --> 00:44:58,089
Hardly a record.
But after all, it was your first bust.
679
00:44:58,262 --> 00:45:02,028
So you really didn't know
what you were getting into last night?
680
00:45:02,199 --> 00:45:03,530
I really didn't.
681
00:45:05,302 --> 00:45:08,760
Who sends you out on these missions
anyway, your agent?
682
00:45:09,440 --> 00:45:12,204
No, he only sends me
out on beer commercials.
683
00:45:14,878 --> 00:45:18,370
Why? Why do you do it?
684
00:45:21,652 --> 00:45:24,246
Because of what happened.
685
00:45:24,421 --> 00:45:27,117
All those people calling in
and writing letters.
686
00:45:27,291 --> 00:45:33,787
How often do you get a chance to do
something that's really special, you know?
687
00:45:35,132 --> 00:45:39,262
You really mean that, don't you?
You're for real.
688
00:45:39,670 --> 00:45:43,436
- And nobody knows?
- Just you.
689
00:45:44,975 --> 00:45:48,411
So, what do you do,
keep it up till somebody kills you?
690
00:45:48,879 --> 00:45:53,407
No, if they're gonna use real bullets,
I think I'll retire.
691
00:45:57,721 --> 00:45:59,450
That's for me.
692
00:46:01,892 --> 00:46:04,554
I'll be right there!
693
00:46:11,568 --> 00:46:13,126
You going out?
694
00:46:13,771 --> 00:46:17,468
- Yeah. Got a date.
- Oh, good.
695
00:46:24,615 --> 00:46:28,676
Listen, I'm in the way.
Why don't I get out of here.
696
00:46:28,852 --> 00:46:32,310
Where you gonna go? Of course,
you're in terrific shape to travel.
697
00:46:32,489 --> 00:46:34,320
What? I could manage.
698
00:46:35,526 --> 00:46:41,192
Look, it's all right with me if you wanna
stay here until you're feeling better.
699
00:46:41,365 --> 00:46:45,324
You don't take up much room,
and I'm gone a lot.
700
00:46:46,670 --> 00:46:50,128
I don't even know your name,
what the J stands for.
701
00:46:51,275 --> 00:46:53,004
Jolene.
702
00:46:54,178 --> 00:46:56,976
Listen, J., I tell you what I'll do.
703
00:46:57,147 --> 00:47:01,083
- I will move to the sofa.
- I accept.
704
00:47:13,497 --> 00:47:15,897
- Sorry.
- What kept you?
705
00:47:16,066 --> 00:47:19,399
- You wouldn't believe it.
- Try me.
706
00:47:19,570 --> 00:47:23,233
When I got home last night,
I found this stray.
707
00:47:24,908 --> 00:47:26,739
- You took him in?
- He'd been hurt.
708
00:47:26,910 --> 00:47:30,903
- I was trying to take care of him.
- Don't get started.
709
00:47:31,081 --> 00:47:34,949
- There's strays all over New York.
- Not like this one.
710
00:48:03,380 --> 00:48:04,870
Hi.
711
00:48:06,149 --> 00:48:08,379
It's just me, Captain Avenger.
712
00:48:08,552 --> 00:48:10,782
I thought you'd be asleep.
713
00:48:11,889 --> 00:48:14,187
That was some date.
714
00:48:15,125 --> 00:48:18,094
We lingered over dinner.
715
00:48:18,262 --> 00:48:20,753
Just you and...?
716
00:48:20,931 --> 00:48:23,957
- Milo.
- Right, right.
717
00:48:25,736 --> 00:48:28,603
Where'd he take you, Elaine's?
718
00:48:29,940 --> 00:48:36,402
- A little restaurant in Chinatown.
- So Oriental atmosphere.
719
00:48:36,580 --> 00:48:38,912
Curiously seductive.
720
00:48:39,082 --> 00:48:41,744
I like Chinese food.
721
00:48:43,320 --> 00:48:46,483
Gentleman strive to please.
722
00:48:46,657 --> 00:48:50,957
He want you back in house
on East 66th Street.
723
00:48:51,595 --> 00:48:54,894
Confucius say Grandma have long nose.
724
00:48:55,065 --> 00:48:59,092
Well, I care about these things
now that I'm living with you.
725
00:48:59,269 --> 00:49:04,138
- You are not living with me.
- Well, visiting with you.
726
00:49:07,010 --> 00:49:08,944
How's the arm?
727
00:49:09,880 --> 00:49:12,144
You did a great job.
728
00:49:13,717 --> 00:49:16,447
Probably saved my life.
729
00:49:25,028 --> 00:49:28,156
Yes, he wants me back.
730
00:49:30,200 --> 00:49:33,966
Well, what about you?
How do you feel?
731
00:49:35,405 --> 00:49:38,602
Excuse me,
but that is none of your business.
732
00:49:39,509 --> 00:49:43,468
Yeah, well, don't let him rush you.
A guy like that can be very pushy.
733
00:49:43,647 --> 00:49:49,279
- And how do you know that?
- The car. It's a dead giveaway.
734
00:49:52,055 --> 00:49:54,250
You're crazy.
735
00:49:54,424 --> 00:49:57,689
Of course,
that's not exactly a news flash.
736
00:50:02,632 --> 00:50:04,896
Steve.
737
00:50:05,068 --> 00:50:06,660
My name's Steve.
738
00:50:10,674 --> 00:50:12,073
Good night, Steve.
739
00:50:13,377 --> 00:50:15,709
Good night, J.
740
00:50:18,315 --> 00:50:20,977
- Jeff Goldstein.
- A Jewish Captain Avenger?
741
00:50:21,151 --> 00:50:24,484
- Why not?
- Captain Avenger is a Wasp.
742
00:50:24,654 --> 00:50:27,714
Now, here. This is Steve Nichols.
743
00:50:27,891 --> 00:50:30,189
- And I was with him that first day.
- And?
744
00:50:30,360 --> 00:50:33,329
Well, he's sort of strange.
745
00:50:33,497 --> 00:50:35,488
He's not a pansy?
I won't go with a pansy.
746
00:50:35,665 --> 00:50:38,725
Oh, not that, not one of those.
747
00:50:39,269 --> 00:50:42,102
He takes this Captain Avenger
very seriously.
748
00:50:42,272 --> 00:50:46,402
Now, he really wants kids to like him.
That kind of strange, you know?
749
00:50:46,576 --> 00:50:49,340
All right, let's see.
750
00:50:49,513 --> 00:50:51,879
Okay. Lewis.
751
00:50:52,616 --> 00:50:53,844
Tell me about Matt Lewis.
752
00:50:54,017 --> 00:50:57,043
I know him.
Actor, model, into bodybuilding.
753
00:50:57,220 --> 00:51:02,556
Well, that's six of them. Now, Tony and I
think it's got to be one of these guys.
754
00:51:02,726 --> 00:51:06,253
- Now, you want to see them all?
- No.
755
00:51:06,930 --> 00:51:10,161
- Just this one.
- Why him?
756
00:51:11,701 --> 00:51:13,635
I don't know.
757
00:51:13,804 --> 00:51:17,934
I just got a feeling.
758
00:51:18,341 --> 00:51:22,141
Hey, J.? J., I'm in big trouble.
759
00:51:23,113 --> 00:51:26,378
- Swim for shore.
- I have nothing to wear.
760
00:51:26,550 --> 00:51:29,178
Fighting crime is a dirty business.
761
00:51:29,352 --> 00:51:31,445
I'm trapped in here.
762
00:51:32,055 --> 00:51:35,388
Can you wear a size seven
in junior dresses?
763
00:51:37,828 --> 00:51:40,160
- Someone's here.
- Yeah, I heard.
764
00:51:40,330 --> 00:51:43,197
- Keep the splashing down.
- Anything you say.
765
00:51:43,366 --> 00:51:45,459
Okay, okay.
766
00:51:48,071 --> 00:51:50,164
- Milo.
- Hi.
767
00:51:50,941 --> 00:51:53,774
- Get your bikini. We're going sailing.
- What?
768
00:51:53,944 --> 00:51:57,778
Mr. Supo-Dog-Food, he wants
to take me out on his 40-footer.
769
00:51:57,948 --> 00:52:01,179
And he said to bring along the playmate
of my choice. That's you.
770
00:52:03,019 --> 00:52:06,614
Well, thanks, but I've got plans.
771
00:52:06,790 --> 00:52:10,419
- What kind of plans?
- Well, personal plans.
772
00:52:10,594 --> 00:52:13,290
- Break them.
- I can't.
773
00:52:13,463 --> 00:52:16,091
Hey, I thought we came
to an agreement last night.
774
00:52:16,266 --> 00:52:18,700
- Not that I remember.
- Sure we did.
775
00:52:18,869 --> 00:52:22,498
You came to an agreement, Milo,
with yourself.
776
00:52:22,672 --> 00:52:25,573
Look, get your stuff together.
We'll talk about all this later.
777
00:52:25,742 --> 00:52:29,610
Milo, you can be very pushy.
778
00:52:29,779 --> 00:52:33,340
- All right, we'll talk about it now.
- No.
779
00:52:33,517 --> 00:52:36,748
I want you to go.
780
00:52:36,920 --> 00:52:38,512
Hey, what's the matter with you?
781
00:52:39,956 --> 00:52:44,620
There's nothing the matter.
Except that I am about to get angry.
782
00:52:44,794 --> 00:52:46,352
Why?
783
00:52:46,530 --> 00:52:50,762
Because I wanna stop you
from making a very large mistake?
784
00:52:51,635 --> 00:52:56,436
- I am getting angry.
- Hey, we belong together. We're a team.
785
00:52:56,606 --> 00:53:00,098
Not true. I am a part of your team.
786
00:53:00,277 --> 00:53:04,304
- Haven't I taken good care of you?
- You treat me like a thing.
787
00:53:04,481 --> 00:53:09,509
- I am not a thing.
- Come on, let me take you out of this hole.
788
00:53:09,686 --> 00:53:11,779
Now I am angry.
789
00:53:11,955 --> 00:53:16,085
This hole happens to be my home,
and I want you out of it.
790
00:53:16,259 --> 00:53:19,888
- Take it easy.
- Now! I want you to go now.
791
00:53:20,063 --> 00:53:22,054
I'll go when I'm good
and goddamn ready.
792
00:53:24,034 --> 00:53:25,558
I'm counting to three, Milo.
793
00:53:28,405 --> 00:53:31,101
- Who the hell is that?
- One.
794
00:53:32,642 --> 00:53:35,076
- You better go.
- Two.
795
00:53:35,979 --> 00:53:38,470
So this is your stray.
796
00:53:50,493 --> 00:53:52,256
Three.
797
00:53:52,429 --> 00:53:56,866
Listen, he's not the guy for you.
I knew that the first time I saw him.
798
00:53:57,033 --> 00:54:00,662
You don't know anything. Look at you.
799
00:54:00,837 --> 00:54:05,137
You're a crazy man who dresses up
in a comic-book suit...
800
00:54:05,308 --> 00:54:08,800
...and goes around doing good deeds
like an overgrown Boy Scout.
801
00:54:08,979 --> 00:54:15,350
Yeah, but I would never treat you
like a thing.
802
00:54:21,725 --> 00:54:26,628
Who are you, and what are you doing
in my apartment?
803
00:54:26,796 --> 00:54:29,094
- You want me to leave?
- Yes.
804
00:54:29,266 --> 00:54:30,494
- No.
- Sorry.
805
00:54:30,667 --> 00:54:33,568
It's okay. It's okay.
806
00:54:40,844 --> 00:54:44,177
I don't wanna get involved.
807
00:54:46,716 --> 00:54:49,685
- I just got uninvolved.
- I know.
808
00:54:52,489 --> 00:54:55,754
A struggling actor from Cawker City.
809
00:54:55,925 --> 00:54:58,587
And a nut at that.
810
00:54:58,762 --> 00:55:00,957
- A nice nut.
- Thank you.
811
00:55:01,131 --> 00:55:03,622
But a nut's a nut.
812
00:55:26,122 --> 00:55:29,649
I want you to know
I'm not always this easy.
813
00:55:29,826 --> 00:55:32,954
I bet you say that to all the girls.
814
00:55:33,697 --> 00:55:37,724
I don't suppose you've seen
a high-heeled shoe anywhere.
815
00:55:39,269 --> 00:55:40,930
You have to go?
816
00:55:41,104 --> 00:55:43,698
Job interviews are very important
at this point...
817
00:55:43,873 --> 00:55:47,400
...since I don't think I'm going to be doing
much more work for Milo.
818
00:55:47,577 --> 00:55:49,704
Don't worry about that.
I'll take care of you.
819
00:55:50,213 --> 00:55:52,943
I don't wanna be taken care of.
820
00:55:53,116 --> 00:55:56,552
Besides, you can't even
take care of yourself.
821
00:55:56,720 --> 00:55:59,746
- My luck is changing.
- You're sure about that?
822
00:55:59,923 --> 00:56:01,823
Yep, yours too.
823
00:56:01,991 --> 00:56:06,428
Maybe you're right. I just found my shoe.
824
00:56:11,301 --> 00:56:12,928
Come here.
825
00:56:15,605 --> 00:56:17,232
I gotta go.
826
00:56:19,943 --> 00:56:24,971
- Just one minute.
- See you later.
827
00:56:30,987 --> 00:56:33,854
- Well, hello.
- Hello.
828
00:56:34,023 --> 00:56:36,583
I'm looking for Steve Nichols.
829
00:56:36,793 --> 00:56:40,786
- His apartment is across the hall.
- Yeah, but he's not in it.
830
00:56:40,964 --> 00:56:43,831
The landlady thought maybe
you might know where he is.
831
00:56:44,000 --> 00:56:46,298
I wonder where she gets her ideas.
832
00:56:46,469 --> 00:56:50,633
I'm from Walter Reeves Public Relations.
833
00:56:50,807 --> 00:56:55,767
It's very important that I talk to Mr. Nichols.
It's about a job.
834
00:56:57,680 --> 00:57:01,047
Could you excuse me
for a minute, please?
835
00:57:15,064 --> 00:57:19,592
- I've just located him.
- Oh, good, good.
836
00:57:19,769 --> 00:57:22,966
- Hiya, Steve.
- Eddie, it's nice to see you again.
837
00:57:23,139 --> 00:57:25,039
How are you?
838
00:57:25,909 --> 00:57:27,638
Did you hurt yourself?
839
00:57:27,811 --> 00:57:31,713
Well, yeah, I fell. I was just clumsy.
It's nothing.
840
00:57:31,881 --> 00:57:35,282
Listen, Steve, Mr. Reeves
wants to talk to you...
841
00:57:35,452 --> 00:57:38,387
...about something very interesting.
842
00:57:39,389 --> 00:57:43,325
Well, it might be kind of hard for me
to see him today.
843
00:57:43,493 --> 00:57:47,930
Well, I paid your rent. Does that help?
844
00:57:48,097 --> 00:57:51,589
Well, yeah, that does help.
845
00:57:51,768 --> 00:57:55,260
Listen, Eddie, can you give me
about five minutes to get dressed?
846
00:57:55,438 --> 00:57:58,305
Oh, sure, sure, sure.
Take all the time you want.
847
00:57:58,475 --> 00:58:01,569
- I'll be right outside waiting for you.
- Okay, I'll be right there.
848
00:58:01,744 --> 00:58:03,371
Good.
849
00:58:07,951 --> 00:58:10,112
See, I told you. Our luck is changing.
850
00:58:11,354 --> 00:58:13,379
I think you're gonna need these.
851
00:58:17,727 --> 00:58:21,993
- Steve, don't wear pink.
- I won't.
852
00:58:27,036 --> 00:58:29,368
Goddamn it, this is a moment.
853
00:58:30,306 --> 00:58:33,503
I'm not gonna dick you around, Steve.
We know what you've been doing.
854
00:58:33,676 --> 00:58:36,338
- You do?
- A beautiful thing.
855
00:58:36,513 --> 00:58:39,175
- Beautiful.
- Beautiful.
856
00:58:42,018 --> 00:58:44,885
I'm sorry, I don't know what you guys
are talking about.
857
00:58:45,054 --> 00:58:47,022
You can relax. It's just us.
858
00:58:47,190 --> 00:58:50,353
Kick off the boots, drop the mask...
859
00:58:50,527 --> 00:58:51,994
...take off the cape.
860
00:58:53,530 --> 00:58:54,758
How'd you find out?
861
00:58:55,899 --> 00:58:57,833
Little detective work.
862
00:59:01,938 --> 00:59:05,601
So, what happens now?
863
00:59:05,775 --> 00:59:09,211
Well, we wanna help you.
864
00:59:10,813 --> 00:59:12,678
Help me do what?
865
00:59:12,849 --> 00:59:16,341
- Finish what you've started.
- Oh, I didn't start anything.
866
00:59:16,519 --> 00:59:21,752
Oh, really? Turns a city upside down
and says he didn't start anything.
867
00:59:21,925 --> 00:59:25,258
I think the question really is,
how long can you keep it up?
868
00:59:25,428 --> 00:59:29,091
- Oh, I have to quit. I know that.
- That's what we wanna talk to you about.
869
00:59:29,432 --> 00:59:32,959
- Quitting?
- How to do it.
870
00:59:33,736 --> 00:59:37,467
- You can't just walk away.
- No, they will forget you in a week.
871
00:59:37,640 --> 00:59:38,971
You wanna go out a legend.
872
00:59:39,142 --> 00:59:42,407
Well, it was just something that happened.
It was sort of an accident.
873
00:59:42,579 --> 00:59:43,807
Don't do that, Steve.
874
00:59:44,547 --> 00:59:49,416
Don't ever make little of what you've done,
even in modesty. It's too important.
875
00:59:50,954 --> 00:59:55,891
You see, the need you've touched
in the people of this city...
876
00:59:56,059 --> 01:00:00,291
...the faith you've restored,
well, that's amazing.
877
01:00:01,230 --> 01:00:05,428
I don't think even you realize what
you've done, what you still can do.
878
01:00:05,902 --> 01:00:11,135
- All it needs is a little advanced planning.
- You mean a setup?
879
01:00:11,674 --> 01:00:14,837
- A performance.
- I can't do that.
880
01:00:15,011 --> 01:00:17,138
Come on, you're an actor.
881
01:00:17,313 --> 01:00:22,114
If you were giving a performance of Hamlet,
would you use real swords?
882
01:00:22,285 --> 01:00:24,810
Yeah, but that's different.
A play, it's make-believe.
883
01:00:24,988 --> 01:00:27,320
- What's Captain Avenger?
- Captain... You can't...
884
01:00:27,490 --> 01:00:32,086
I know. It's a fine line,
I'll grant you that.
885
01:00:32,261 --> 01:00:34,593
But you did something...
886
01:00:34,764 --> 01:00:36,732
...beautiful.
887
01:00:38,301 --> 01:00:44,001
You played Captain Avenger.
To do it, you wore a costume.
888
01:00:44,173 --> 01:00:47,768
Does that make it less honest?
Less beautiful?
889
01:00:49,612 --> 01:00:51,170
But I didn't fake it.
890
01:00:52,749 --> 01:00:54,546
Don't be selfish, Steve.
891
01:00:55,251 --> 01:00:56,479
Selfish?
892
01:01:00,857 --> 01:01:03,052
Give them what they want, Steve.
893
01:01:04,594 --> 01:01:06,459
Give them the legend.
894
01:01:14,237 --> 01:01:16,262
You know...
895
01:01:17,273 --> 01:01:20,174
...I need some time to think this over.
Is that all right?
896
01:01:20,343 --> 01:01:21,640
- Of course.
- Okay.
897
01:01:21,811 --> 01:01:23,870
- Absolutely.
- Good.
898
01:01:24,047 --> 01:01:26,277
- Come on out this way.
- Yeah.
899
01:01:26,449 --> 01:01:29,145
- I want you to take care of that arm.
- Yeah.
900
01:01:29,318 --> 01:01:31,912
- You play pool?
- Sometimes, yeah.
901
01:01:32,088 --> 01:01:34,488
We got a nice table out here.
Take a look.
902
01:01:37,760 --> 01:01:41,662
Steve, I want you to think it over.
It's very important. To all of us.
903
01:01:41,831 --> 01:01:46,859
Mr. Reeves, tell me something.
Why do you care about this so much?
904
01:01:47,970 --> 01:01:50,063
That's a good question.
905
01:01:52,542 --> 01:01:54,806
Somebody has to care.
906
01:01:59,816 --> 01:02:03,582
Steve, you know Zev Bufman?
907
01:02:03,753 --> 01:02:08,087
- The producer?
- Yeah, he's a friend of mine.
908
01:02:08,691 --> 01:02:12,593
He's doing a revival
of Cat on a Hot Tin Roof...
909
01:02:12,762 --> 01:02:17,028
...and they're looking for a new face
to play the role of...
910
01:02:17,734 --> 01:02:20,100
- What's the name of that character?
- Brick?
911
01:02:20,770 --> 01:02:23,034
That's the one.
912
01:02:23,206 --> 01:02:26,937
Paul Newman played that part.
And Ben Gazzara.
913
01:02:27,110 --> 01:02:30,307
Well, I... I think he ought to talk to you.
914
01:02:31,948 --> 01:02:36,385
- Well, thanks a lot. Thank you very much.
- It's all right.
915
01:02:38,020 --> 01:02:40,250
I'll see you later.
916
01:02:43,826 --> 01:02:46,556
Linda, get me Calvin Donnelly.
917
01:02:46,729 --> 01:02:49,289
Hey, shouldn't you wait
till you hear back from the guy?
918
01:02:49,465 --> 01:02:51,660
What for? He's hooked. Don't worry.
919
01:02:51,834 --> 01:02:54,564
- Just trust me.
- Mr. Reeves...
920
01:02:56,405 --> 01:02:58,999
...l'm sorry, I can't do it.
921
01:03:00,977 --> 01:03:04,970
I just can't. Thanks anyway.
922
01:03:45,755 --> 01:03:47,814
That looks better on you.
923
01:03:47,990 --> 01:03:49,617
- What's all this?
- This is dinner.
924
01:03:49,792 --> 01:03:55,059
It's the old Chinese seduction.
Oh, and flowers for the lady of the house.
925
01:03:56,065 --> 01:03:58,727
I bring you wondrous delights.
926
01:03:58,901 --> 01:04:02,200
Tender duckling,
steamed with delicate spices...
927
01:04:02,371 --> 01:04:07,206
...pressed into dainty cakes
and served with a spicy plum sauce.
928
01:04:07,677 --> 01:04:11,738
- Spicy plum sauce.
- Steve, I'm going out to dinner.
929
01:04:11,914 --> 01:04:16,544
No, you'll change your plans once you've
tasted Quong How Singapore noodles.
930
01:04:16,719 --> 01:04:18,346
I got a job.
931
01:04:18,721 --> 01:04:22,953
You did? Congratulations.
Look, look, we'll celebrate...
932
01:04:23,125 --> 01:04:27,221
...with a wine of recent vintage.
Very recent vintage.
933
01:04:27,396 --> 01:04:31,196
- But it's not too dry, not too sweet.
- I'm meeting some agency people.
934
01:04:31,367 --> 01:04:35,963
Oh, look. Fortune cookies so wise
you will gasp to read them.
935
01:04:36,138 --> 01:04:39,369
I can't have dinner with you.
936
01:04:41,711 --> 01:04:43,338
Okay.
937
01:04:43,946 --> 01:04:47,347
Won ton for one.
I'll just watch TV till you get home.
938
01:04:47,516 --> 01:04:51,543
Steve, home is over there.
939
01:04:51,721 --> 01:04:55,020
The rent was paid,
the lock is off the door.
940
01:04:58,227 --> 01:05:02,994
- Yeah, but I thought that you...
- I thought that's what you thought.
941
01:05:04,333 --> 01:05:10,203
Look, Steve, you're a terrific guy.
942
01:05:10,373 --> 01:05:13,900
And I like you. I like you a lot.
943
01:05:14,076 --> 01:05:19,981
But right now, I need some time with me.
For me. You understand?
944
01:05:20,917 --> 01:05:22,145
No.
945
01:05:23,519 --> 01:05:25,987
- There are things I wanna do.
- I wouldn't stop you.
946
01:05:26,155 --> 01:05:30,615
Yes, you would.
You're not just another guy.
947
01:05:30,793 --> 01:05:33,694
You're someone to stay home with
and take care of.
948
01:05:33,863 --> 01:05:36,058
And I don't wanna stay home right now.
949
01:05:36,232 --> 01:05:40,601
When I look at you, I see Christmas cards
with kids' pictures on the front.
950
01:05:41,003 --> 01:05:46,464
I got a few dreams of my own. And I
wanna do something about them now...
951
01:05:46,642 --> 01:05:49,042
...while I still have the chance.
- I could help you.
952
01:05:49,211 --> 01:05:51,236
- We could help each other.
- It wouldn't work.
953
01:05:51,414 --> 01:05:52,676
Look, J., I promise...
954
01:05:52,848 --> 01:05:54,645
I don't want promises.
955
01:05:55,818 --> 01:06:00,152
Steve, there is no place for you
in my life.
956
01:06:00,589 --> 01:06:04,025
Please, go back to your apartment.
957
01:06:09,198 --> 01:06:11,257
Okay.
958
01:06:17,473 --> 01:06:22,934
Could you open the door for me?
My hands are a little greasy.
959
01:06:33,689 --> 01:06:36,487
- Thanks, J., not just for that but for...
- I know.
960
01:06:38,327 --> 01:06:40,022
You know.
961
01:06:47,770 --> 01:06:49,362
My fortune.
962
01:06:54,910 --> 01:06:56,309
What's it say?
963
01:06:56,479 --> 01:07:00,848
"A duck who flies upside down
may have a bad quack up."
964
01:07:20,469 --> 01:07:22,767
New York is going Captain Avenger crazy.
965
01:07:22,938 --> 01:07:24,235
Every day, reports come in.
966
01:07:24,407 --> 01:07:27,638
Last night, there was a report from Brooklyn
about Captain Avenger...
967
01:07:27,810 --> 01:07:30,210
...thwarting a bank robbery.
A passerby described...
968
01:07:30,379 --> 01:07:33,371
...seeing him route five armed men
with his bare hands.
969
01:07:33,549 --> 01:07:35,278
Now, Dr. Brothers...
970
01:07:35,618 --> 01:07:39,349
...is this a good thing or a bad thing,
in the sense of healthy or unhealthy?
971
01:07:39,955 --> 01:07:42,719
Well, your question really
isn't as simple as it sounds.
972
01:07:42,992 --> 01:07:47,429
On one hand, who's to say it's unhealthy
to admire heroic figures?
973
01:07:47,596 --> 01:07:51,396
I will. The next thing we'll be doing is
looking for genies in bottles...
974
01:07:51,567 --> 01:07:54,536
...or having our fairy godmothers
take us to the ball.
975
01:07:55,104 --> 01:07:57,766
Doesn't the public response
to Captain Avenger...
976
01:07:57,940 --> 01:08:00,408
...indicate that the people
would like to have a hero?
977
01:08:00,576 --> 01:08:02,567
- Of course they would.
- Well, I don't know.
978
01:08:02,745 --> 01:08:05,145
What happens to them
when they find out it's a joke?
979
01:08:05,314 --> 01:08:08,078
Assuming that the man, whoever he is,
is completely sincere.
980
01:08:08,284 --> 01:08:11,447
The question surely arises:
How far will he go?
981
01:08:11,620 --> 01:08:14,282
Isn't it inevitable that he's
gonna have to let us down?
982
01:08:14,457 --> 01:08:15,822
I don't think it's inevitable.
983
01:08:15,991 --> 01:08:19,119
He can't let us down if we don't let him
set us up. It's as simple as that.
984
01:08:19,295 --> 01:08:22,321
You're saying that we ought
to give up hope. I don't believe that.
985
01:08:22,498 --> 01:08:24,728
I just don't think that
we have to give up hope.
986
01:08:24,900 --> 01:08:27,494
We need our hopes
just as we need our fantasies.
987
01:08:27,670 --> 01:08:33,233
We need you, Captain Avenger,
dream and reality. Keep it up.
988
01:08:43,018 --> 01:08:45,851
All right, this is a stickup!
Everybody up. Come on!
989
01:08:46,021 --> 01:08:49,752
Get up there! Move! Come on, hurry!
Move it! Move it!
990
01:08:49,992 --> 01:08:52,620
Quiet! All right, everybody
to the back of the car!
991
01:08:52,795 --> 01:08:55,730
Sit down on each side! Quiet!
992
01:08:55,898 --> 01:08:58,196
Don't make any sudden moves.
993
01:08:58,767 --> 01:09:00,632
Sit down back there!
994
01:09:00,803 --> 01:09:03,499
Everybody be quiet, nobody gets hurt!
995
01:09:04,140 --> 01:09:08,042
Okay. Your money, your rings,
your watches, your wallets in that bag.
996
01:09:09,078 --> 01:09:11,137
Hurry up! Stick it in there!
997
01:09:11,313 --> 01:09:13,781
Come on, sis, stick it in the bag.
998
01:09:13,949 --> 01:09:16,417
There you go. Pass it down the line.
999
01:09:16,752 --> 01:09:18,447
And your wallet.
1000
01:09:18,654 --> 01:09:20,622
You forgot your wallet!
1001
01:09:21,423 --> 01:09:24,153
Pass it along. Come on! Come on!
1002
01:09:24,860 --> 01:09:28,023
Come on, come on! Come on,
hurry up. I haven't got all day.
1003
01:09:28,197 --> 01:09:30,222
Here! Take it, take it!
1004
01:09:31,467 --> 01:09:33,867
Whatever you say, tough guy.
1005
01:09:34,203 --> 01:09:36,797
- Captain Avenger. Hold it.
- Don't you want your loot?
1006
01:09:36,972 --> 01:09:38,462
Stay right there now!
1007
01:09:40,876 --> 01:09:43,436
Get him, captain! Get him, captain!
1008
01:10:01,997 --> 01:10:03,658
Get him, captain!
1009
01:10:12,608 --> 01:10:16,510
All right, everybody, it's all over. You
can relax now. Everything's under control.
1010
01:10:18,614 --> 01:10:20,582
This is the end of the line for you.
1011
01:10:21,450 --> 01:10:22,781
Officer!
1012
01:10:23,352 --> 01:10:25,877
Officer, we have an attempted
armed robbery right here.
1013
01:10:26,055 --> 01:10:29,354
- Thank you, Captain Avenger. I'll take over.
- Officer, I was a witness.
1014
01:10:29,525 --> 01:10:33,017
- Okay, would you mind coming with me?
- No, I don't mind.
1015
01:10:33,729 --> 01:10:36,220
Move it, let's go. Come on, let's move.
Let's go.
1016
01:10:36,732 --> 01:10:38,495
Great, huh?
1017
01:10:39,835 --> 01:10:42,429
It's selling so good
we can't keep it on the shelves.
1018
01:10:43,239 --> 01:10:47,903
Well, I heard you were a big hit today.
1019
01:10:50,713 --> 01:10:54,342
Listen, Mr. Reeves,
I'm not doing it anymore.
1020
01:10:55,517 --> 01:10:59,578
I told myself all those things were true
about people needing Captain Avenger...
1021
01:10:59,755 --> 01:11:01,222
...about going out a legend.
1022
01:11:01,790 --> 01:11:03,348
And?
1023
01:11:04,159 --> 01:11:08,061
Okay. And I wanted a part in a play.
I wanted to be somebody.
1024
01:11:08,664 --> 01:11:11,462
What's the harm of doing
something good for yourself?
1025
01:11:11,934 --> 01:11:14,129
The harm is I feel lousy.
1026
01:11:14,370 --> 01:11:17,931
When I did it before, it was real.
I felt great. Not this time.
1027
01:11:20,276 --> 01:11:22,176
Steve...
1028
01:11:22,511 --> 01:11:26,948
...you had a big day. Why don't you
go home, relax, think it over.
1029
01:11:27,116 --> 01:11:28,845
No, I thought it over. No.
1030
01:11:29,285 --> 01:11:30,912
We have an agreement.
1031
01:11:31,787 --> 01:11:33,687
I haven't collected my part.
1032
01:11:33,856 --> 01:11:37,792
All right, all right, now wait a minute.
Wait just a minute. Steve, hold on a second.
1033
01:11:37,960 --> 01:11:39,894
There's something
you should know about.
1034
01:11:40,296 --> 01:11:43,026
The mayor's office has been
in touch with me.
1035
01:11:43,365 --> 01:11:45,595
They want to have
a Captain Avenger Day.
1036
01:11:45,801 --> 01:11:48,668
Not bad, huh? With television coverage...
1037
01:11:49,004 --> 01:11:52,098
...everyone would get to see you,
really see you.
1038
01:11:52,708 --> 01:11:54,801
I mean, listen, if you...
1039
01:11:55,210 --> 01:11:57,440
If you wanna quit, okay.
1040
01:11:57,846 --> 01:12:00,110
But it's a nice way to go out, isn't it?
1041
01:12:03,986 --> 01:12:07,581
All right. All right, but that'll be it,
the last time I put on that suit.
1042
01:12:07,756 --> 01:12:11,192
You bet. I'll send a car for you.
1043
01:12:12,695 --> 01:12:15,357
No, thanks. I'll get there on my own.
1044
01:12:15,998 --> 01:12:17,795
I'd rather send you a car.
1045
01:12:19,568 --> 01:12:21,763
I promise, I'll be there.
1046
01:12:27,343 --> 01:12:29,538
Thanks so much.
1047
01:12:33,148 --> 01:12:36,549
You're crazy. You know that, don't you?
1048
01:12:37,152 --> 01:12:39,211
Yeah, I heard it a couple of times.
1049
01:12:39,521 --> 01:12:42,115
Armed robbers on elevated trains?
1050
01:12:42,358 --> 01:12:44,952
Have you decided that
you really are Captain Avenger?
1051
01:12:45,127 --> 01:12:47,118
Look, I won't be doing it again, I promise.
1052
01:12:47,296 --> 01:12:50,322
That's what you said last time.
Maybe it's some sort of addiction.
1053
01:12:50,499 --> 01:12:53,059
- Maybe you can't help yourself.
- Come on, don't do that.
1054
01:12:53,235 --> 01:12:57,035
- I ought to turn you in, for your own good.
- Hey, you don't wanna deal with me.
1055
01:12:57,206 --> 01:13:00,175
You got other things to do, remember?
1056
01:13:02,077 --> 01:13:04,875
I should've expected that.
1057
01:13:06,248 --> 01:13:08,375
I haven't seen you for days.
1058
01:13:08,951 --> 01:13:12,079
- I've been busy.
- Riding around on elevated trains.
1059
01:13:12,254 --> 01:13:15,348
Tomorrow, I'm leaping over
a tall building in a single bound.
1060
01:13:15,524 --> 01:13:17,014
- Wrong guy.
- I'm expanding.
1061
01:13:17,226 --> 01:13:20,354
All right, go ahead and get yourself
killed if that's what you want.
1062
01:13:20,529 --> 01:13:22,963
Just don't come and tell me about it.
1063
01:13:25,200 --> 01:13:27,964
- Hi, toots, you wanna put that in there?
- Yo.
1064
01:13:28,604 --> 01:13:31,072
You might wanna check out the big C.A.
1065
01:13:31,240 --> 01:13:35,700
- Looks like he really did it this time.
- So I heard. So I heard.
1066
01:13:36,078 --> 01:13:38,205
"Suddenly, he appeared."
1067
01:13:38,480 --> 01:13:41,847
L... How the hell does somebody
suddenly appear on a moving train?
1068
01:13:42,017 --> 01:13:45,316
- You wanna tell me that?
- Twenty witnesses say so. That's how.
1069
01:13:45,487 --> 01:13:47,079
Twenty witnesses.
1070
01:13:47,489 --> 01:13:49,218
"It's the idea that counts."
1071
01:13:49,391 --> 01:13:51,951
He even stopped
to make a speech, Gloria.
1072
01:13:52,161 --> 01:13:56,598
Yeah. It seems like
I heard that speech before.
1073
01:13:56,799 --> 01:13:59,324
- Come on...?
- See you in the funny papers, honey.
1074
01:13:59,501 --> 01:14:01,492
Taxi! Taxi!
1075
01:14:16,585 --> 01:14:20,749
This is your better idea?
Forget about the fake heroics.
1076
01:14:20,923 --> 01:14:24,017
We'll have a nice big ceremony.
Give him the key to the city...
1077
01:14:24,193 --> 01:14:26,252
...enough coverage for two elections.
1078
01:14:26,495 --> 01:14:28,986
So, what have we got?
A disappearing act instead?
1079
01:14:29,164 --> 01:14:31,064
He said he would be here.
1080
01:14:37,806 --> 01:14:40,570
I'm afraid we just have to start.
1081
01:14:42,945 --> 01:14:44,537
Without him?
1082
01:14:44,847 --> 01:14:47,042
We don't know what's happened.
1083
01:14:47,749 --> 01:14:50,183
You got me into this, Calvin.
1084
01:14:50,486 --> 01:14:52,044
I'm sorry, Your Honor.
1085
01:14:52,221 --> 01:14:54,781
I am not happy.
1086
01:15:06,134 --> 01:15:07,533
Ladies and gentlemen.
1087
01:15:07,936 --> 01:15:10,097
Ladies and gentlemen.
1088
01:15:10,405 --> 01:15:15,069
The mayor of New York City!
1089
01:15:21,049 --> 01:15:26,510
Through the years, many heroes
have been honored on these steps...
1090
01:15:26,788 --> 01:15:31,851
...none of them more extraordinary
than the one we honor today.
1091
01:15:32,027 --> 01:15:33,756
Captain Avenger!
1092
01:15:35,831 --> 01:15:38,857
I wish that he had seen fit...
1093
01:15:39,034 --> 01:15:42,731
...to accept this tribute in person.
1094
01:15:45,641 --> 01:15:47,438
I can only hope...
1095
01:15:47,943 --> 01:15:52,380
I can only hope that wherever he is...
1096
01:15:52,848 --> 01:15:56,841
...he can hear our heartfelt
expression of gratitude.
1097
01:16:03,525 --> 01:16:06,722
You are a bum!
You are a bum!
1098
01:16:06,929 --> 01:16:09,363
I only hope... I only hope...
1099
01:16:09,531 --> 01:16:12,694
We want Captain Avenger!
We want Captain Avenger!
1100
01:16:12,868 --> 01:16:16,565
We want Captain Avenger!
We want Captain Avenger!
1101
01:16:28,717 --> 01:16:30,878
Good to see you.
1102
01:16:58,714 --> 01:17:00,113
Thank you.
1103
01:17:06,622 --> 01:17:11,582
I don't want you to think that I don't
appreciate this honor you're paying me...
1104
01:17:11,760 --> 01:17:14,422
...the mayor and all of you.
1105
01:17:14,596 --> 01:17:16,325
- We love you!
- Thank you.
1106
01:17:16,498 --> 01:17:17,726
We love you!
1107
01:17:17,899 --> 01:17:20,390
But, you see, I didn't come here for that.
1108
01:17:20,569 --> 01:17:26,940
I came here because I have something to
say, and this is a chance for me to say it...
1109
01:17:27,309 --> 01:17:29,937
...to a lot of people all at once.
1110
01:17:30,345 --> 01:17:33,837
But what I want to say is...
1111
01:17:34,516 --> 01:17:38,782
...that I don't really matter very much.
1112
01:17:39,621 --> 01:17:41,816
- No, that's not true.
- No, no.
1113
01:17:42,491 --> 01:17:44,482
We love you.
1114
01:17:44,693 --> 01:17:46,957
No, no. You see,
I don't really matter very much.
1115
01:17:47,129 --> 01:17:51,532
Who I am or where I come from
or if I'll ever show up again.
1116
01:17:51,767 --> 01:17:57,831
It's what Captain Avenger stands for.
That's what's important.
1117
01:18:00,275 --> 01:18:03,073
That's what's important.
1118
01:18:03,412 --> 01:18:06,677
And he stands for justice...
1119
01:18:08,050 --> 01:18:10,575
...and loyalty...
1120
01:18:11,053 --> 01:18:13,487
...and courage.
1121
01:18:13,655 --> 01:18:16,783
Those things still exist.
1122
01:18:19,661 --> 01:18:21,993
New York loves you!
1123
01:18:22,898 --> 01:18:25,867
And there are heroes everywhere,
if you look for them.
1124
01:18:26,034 --> 01:18:31,529
And not just guys in flashy costumes
and comic-book names...
1125
01:18:31,973 --> 01:18:36,501
...but people.
Next door, down the block...
1126
01:18:36,978 --> 01:18:43,406
...people putting themselves on the line
for other people. Caring.
1127
01:18:44,686 --> 01:18:46,017
Like you.
1128
01:18:46,188 --> 01:18:48,884
And people like you.
1129
01:18:50,425 --> 01:18:53,656
It's people putting themselves
on the line for other people.
1130
01:18:53,829 --> 01:18:58,027
Caring. That's what being a hero is.
1131
01:18:59,901 --> 01:19:01,892
Right.
1132
01:19:06,641 --> 01:19:08,108
Be one yourself!
1133
01:19:12,547 --> 01:19:15,345
What if we all did?
What a world that would be, huh?
1134
01:19:15,517 --> 01:19:18,418
Right on! Right on!
1135
01:19:22,891 --> 01:19:26,190
I'm not used to giving speeches...
1136
01:19:27,229 --> 01:19:31,791
...but that's all I have to say, and I think
it's enough. Thank you for listening.
1137
01:20:12,674 --> 01:20:15,837
Could I have a few words, Captain Avenger,
for our viewers at home?
1138
01:20:16,178 --> 01:20:18,203
No, not now. I can't. I'm sorry.
1139
01:20:18,380 --> 01:20:20,848
I'd like to talk to you, Steve.
1140
01:20:23,018 --> 01:20:25,111
I better go now. Thank you. I'm sorry.
1141
01:20:25,554 --> 01:20:28,580
This is Gloria Preston,
WNYB from City Hall...
1142
01:20:28,757 --> 01:20:32,022
...where I am attempting to get
an interview from Captain Avenger...
1143
01:20:32,194 --> 01:20:34,424
...the man being honored here today.
1144
01:20:34,663 --> 01:20:37,154
Or should I say Steve Nichols...
1145
01:20:37,399 --> 01:20:40,027
...a small-town, out-of-work actor...
1146
01:20:40,202 --> 01:20:45,834
...performing rehearsed...
Performing rehearsed heroics...
1147
01:20:46,007 --> 01:20:47,975
...to sell a movie.
1148
01:20:48,143 --> 01:20:52,807
And maybe...
And maybe even a politician.
1149
01:20:59,154 --> 01:21:01,054
Mr. Mayor, I think we ought to leave.
1150
01:21:01,389 --> 01:21:04,415
I have... Wait a minute, people!
1151
01:21:04,593 --> 01:21:06,083
I have with me...
1152
01:21:09,397 --> 01:21:13,265
I have with me another actor...
1153
01:21:13,468 --> 01:21:15,493
...the so-called holdup man.
1154
01:21:15,670 --> 01:21:20,573
This man is prepared to admit that
the whole train robbery was staged.
1155
01:21:20,742 --> 01:21:24,838
And it is as phony as
Captain Avenger himself.
1156
01:21:25,013 --> 01:21:29,006
The news media is always distorting
information. Don't listen to that.
1157
01:21:30,051 --> 01:21:32,042
Shut up!
1158
01:21:33,521 --> 01:21:35,580
Is it true?
1159
01:21:36,157 --> 01:21:37,488
Is it fake?
1160
01:21:37,859 --> 01:21:39,121
Is it fake?
1161
01:21:39,461 --> 01:21:41,656
No, not at first, but later on.
1162
01:21:41,930 --> 01:21:43,363
Not at first?
1163
01:21:43,565 --> 01:21:44,793
It was a fake!
1164
01:21:45,000 --> 01:21:49,300
It's not me. I'm not important.
It's what Captain Avenger stands for.
1165
01:21:49,571 --> 01:21:52,301
What the hell are you talking about,
you fake?
1166
01:21:52,674 --> 01:21:56,906
It doesn't matter what you think of me.
Just don't forget the idea!
1167
01:22:00,081 --> 01:22:01,446
Please, it's the idea!
1168
01:22:01,616 --> 01:22:04,244
It's all a bunch of garbage!
You're full of baloney, man.
1169
01:22:04,419 --> 01:22:07,877
- Shut your mouth!
- What the hell are you talking? Shut up!
1170
01:22:08,056 --> 01:22:10,422
- Come on!
- Woodson put him up to it.
1171
01:22:10,592 --> 01:22:12,651
Get the goddamn son of a bitch.
1172
01:22:12,827 --> 01:22:15,125
Don't... Don't...
1173
01:22:26,441 --> 01:22:28,341
To what extent
were you involved in this?
1174
01:22:28,610 --> 01:22:32,046
- Did he hide out at your apartment?
- Are you also an actress, Miss Marsh?
1175
01:22:32,213 --> 01:22:35,307
- Do you expect him to contact you?
- I don't know what to expect.
1176
01:22:35,483 --> 01:22:38,680
What about that he's a fraud, or did
you know about that before today?
1177
01:22:38,853 --> 01:22:41,617
- Some people say he should be arrested.
- Arrested?
1178
01:22:41,790 --> 01:22:44,759
Did you know a PR firm had been
telling him what to do all along?
1179
01:22:44,926 --> 01:22:46,291
- No.
- Did he lie to you?
1180
01:22:46,461 --> 01:22:49,362
- Did you ever suspect he was a phony?
- What about a con artist?
1181
01:22:49,531 --> 01:22:52,193
- He wasn't a phony.
- Come on, how did this all happen?
1182
01:22:52,400 --> 01:22:54,732
He wasn't a phony!
The man I knew was real.
1183
01:22:54,936 --> 01:22:58,064
The bullet wound in his arm was real.
I know, I bandaged it.
1184
01:22:58,239 --> 01:23:00,366
And what he believed in,
that was real too.
1185
01:23:01,176 --> 01:23:04,668
- How did you find all of this out?
- I'm sorry, but that's all I have to say.
1186
01:23:04,846 --> 01:23:07,041
- Wait a minute.
- Mister, I have a mean knee.
1187
01:23:07,215 --> 01:23:09,740
If you don't want to sing soprano,
I suggest you move!
1188
01:23:16,358 --> 01:23:18,792
Here you go. Did you get anything at all?
1189
01:23:18,960 --> 01:23:21,588
I gotta get this stuff to go in.
1190
01:23:21,796 --> 01:23:23,661
I don't know, sync it.
1191
01:23:24,833 --> 01:23:27,461
- It's interesting.
- It's interesting, but I don't know.
1192
01:23:27,802 --> 01:23:30,498
- Good seeing you. Take care.
- Take care. Bye-bye.
1193
01:24:16,918 --> 01:24:18,545
Steve.
1194
01:24:26,961 --> 01:24:29,896
I was watching for you.
1195
01:24:30,065 --> 01:24:31,726
May I come in?
1196
01:24:31,900 --> 01:24:33,800
I'm kind of busy.
1197
01:24:34,602 --> 01:24:36,069
Please?
1198
01:24:50,452 --> 01:24:51,942
I'm sorry.
1199
01:24:53,088 --> 01:24:55,784
I got what I deserve.
1200
01:24:56,291 --> 01:24:59,283
I gave them something,
then I took it away.
1201
01:25:00,161 --> 01:25:02,220
You're being pretty tough on yourself.
1202
01:25:03,798 --> 01:25:05,891
I'm just being honest.
1203
01:25:12,907 --> 01:25:15,899
If you run away, the bad guys win.
1204
01:25:17,278 --> 01:25:20,111
They will anyway. They got the numbers.
1205
01:25:20,782 --> 01:25:22,113
I don't know.
1206
01:25:22,283 --> 01:25:24,615
Maybe there's more of you
than you think.
1207
01:25:25,120 --> 01:25:28,112
Fight back. Keep talking.
1208
01:25:28,289 --> 01:25:30,223
Nobody listens.
1209
01:25:33,228 --> 01:25:35,492
I did.
1210
01:25:40,535 --> 01:25:42,127
What about your career?
1211
01:25:42,670 --> 01:25:44,160
Some career.
1212
01:25:44,906 --> 01:25:46,669
You're gonna give up acting?
1213
01:25:46,975 --> 01:25:49,705
You're gonna let them
take that away from you too?
1214
01:25:50,145 --> 01:25:52,545
Maybe they're doing me a favor.
1215
01:25:58,319 --> 01:26:00,583
Maybe I'm not any good.
1216
01:26:01,189 --> 01:26:04,249
You did a pretty good job
as Captain Avenger.
1217
01:26:04,559 --> 01:26:07,153
I couldn't sustain the character.
1218
01:26:08,062 --> 01:26:11,862
How often do you have your costume
ripped off in the middle of a performance?
1219
01:26:19,874 --> 01:26:22,775
It's not fair.
1220
01:26:25,346 --> 01:26:29,783
Good luck with all the things you want.
1221
01:26:37,859 --> 01:26:40,419
What about the things that you want?
1222
01:26:43,531 --> 01:26:45,499
I'm not sure what they are anymore.
1223
01:26:46,167 --> 01:26:47,930
I don't believe that.
1224
01:26:55,210 --> 01:26:57,303
All right, give up!
1225
01:26:57,612 --> 01:27:00,410
Go back to Cawker City
and lick your wounds.
1226
01:27:02,116 --> 01:27:05,847
Forget your career,
forget Captain Avenger, and forget me.
1227
01:27:06,054 --> 01:27:08,784
Just let the whole world go to hell.
1228
01:27:09,724 --> 01:27:11,715
I'll forget too.
1229
01:27:12,594 --> 01:27:14,994
I'll forget I ever met you.
1230
01:27:15,430 --> 01:27:17,796
We'll all forget you.
1231
01:27:18,600 --> 01:27:21,034
We could forget anything, you know.
1232
01:27:49,030 --> 01:27:51,999
All we know is that there's been
a collapse inside this building.
1233
01:27:52,166 --> 01:27:56,159
Gas is escaping, and they're afraid
of more explosions at any moment here.
1234
01:27:59,540 --> 01:28:00,837
Adjust the pressure gauges.
1235
01:28:01,009 --> 01:28:03,170
Get some more lines
over the left-hand side.
1236
01:28:03,344 --> 01:28:07,610
- The entire building now. There is concern
about it spreading over the entire block.
1237
01:28:07,815 --> 01:28:10,375
Get some of this water
over to the left-hand window.
1238
01:28:10,685 --> 01:28:11,947
The left-hand window!
1239
01:28:12,120 --> 01:28:16,079
So far, we've had nearly a dozen casualties.
They've been sent to local hospitals.
1240
01:28:16,291 --> 01:28:20,091
- The paramedics now tell me that at least...
- I want you to get these people back.
1241
01:28:20,628 --> 01:28:23,563
Help! Help!
1242
01:28:23,731 --> 01:28:26,564
Get a light over to the top floor.
Far window to the right.
1243
01:28:26,768 --> 01:28:29,669
- Up here!
- Get that basket up there right away!
1244
01:28:29,871 --> 01:28:32,806
Come on, hurry! Get it moving.
Get it moving!
1245
01:28:33,574 --> 01:28:36,907
Just take it easy. Come on, Mike,
move it up there. Quick!
1246
01:28:37,278 --> 01:28:39,769
Keep it moving. Keep it moving.
1247
01:28:40,281 --> 01:28:43,273
Please stay calm, lady. Take it easy.
We're coming to get you.
1248
01:28:43,451 --> 01:28:46,420
- All right, move it right into the wall.
- Help us! Please!
1249
01:28:46,688 --> 01:28:49,987
- Good. Now right into the window.
- Please, my baby! My boy's here!
1250
01:28:50,158 --> 01:28:54,561
Help! I can't find him! I can't find him!
1251
01:28:54,896 --> 01:28:56,830
The fireman's there to help you get out.
1252
01:28:56,998 --> 01:29:00,729
Did you take him out?
Do you have my baby?
1253
01:29:05,139 --> 01:29:08,540
Ben, I want all of our people
out of that building right now!
1254
01:29:08,776 --> 01:29:12,610
My baby! Wait! He's there!
1255
01:29:14,649 --> 01:29:17,709
Come on, lady, don't worry now.
You're okay.
1256
01:29:17,985 --> 01:29:20,453
Hurry them out. Come on.
1257
01:29:20,788 --> 01:29:25,384
Move it, move it! Get out!
I want everybody, and I mean everybody...
1258
01:29:25,560 --> 01:29:30,020
Johnny! Johnny! Johnny.
1259
01:29:33,968 --> 01:29:37,995
He's up there. My baby's up there!
Where's my child?
1260
01:29:38,172 --> 01:29:44,168
Where's my son? Have you seen
my little boy, my son? Johnny! Johnny?
1261
01:29:44,579 --> 01:29:46,706
- I'm going in to get him.
- You can't go back.
1262
01:29:46,881 --> 01:29:50,282
Nobody can go back in there.
It's too dangerous.
1263
01:29:52,653 --> 01:29:55,451
Please try to... Will you find him?
1264
01:29:55,623 --> 01:29:56,851
We'll check and make sure.
1265
01:29:57,024 --> 01:30:01,120
Please! He's up there! Johnny! Johnny!
1266
01:30:09,337 --> 01:30:12,170
Ben, nobody goes back
in that building, understood?
1267
01:30:21,482 --> 01:30:24,849
There is now concern that a young boy
is still trapped in the building.
1268
01:30:25,052 --> 01:30:29,455
All rescue efforts have been stopped due
to the imminent danger of further collapse.
1269
01:30:29,857 --> 01:30:33,987
Both fire and rescue crews
have been ordered to stay out.
1270
01:30:34,262 --> 01:30:36,730
Chief Palmer faces
a very difficult decision:
1271
01:30:36,898 --> 01:30:41,301
Whether he should risk the lives of
his own men by allowing them to re-enter...
1272
01:30:41,536 --> 01:30:45,905
...or to stand by helplessly while a young
boy is trapped in a potential time bomb.
1273
01:30:46,607 --> 01:30:49,075
Hey, what the hell is that?
Get a light up there!
1274
01:30:49,911 --> 01:30:51,310
Jesus Christ!
1275
01:30:51,579 --> 01:30:53,740
It's Captain Avenger!
1276
01:31:26,447 --> 01:31:29,280
- Is anybody in there?
- Yes.
1277
01:31:35,022 --> 01:31:37,286
It's gonna be all right.
Just give me your hand.
1278
01:31:37,525 --> 01:31:40,187
Let's get out of here.
Come on, let's go! Come on!
1279
01:31:40,394 --> 01:31:42,726
Here we go. That's it.
1280
01:31:43,631 --> 01:31:46,156
Grab on to me. Grab on to me.
1281
01:31:47,168 --> 01:31:50,069
We're gonna get you
out of here, all right?
1282
01:31:57,845 --> 01:31:59,574
He's got the kid!
1283
01:31:59,847 --> 01:32:02,372
Captain Moore, break out the net.
1284
01:32:03,150 --> 01:32:06,608
Get that net here!
Move it! Move it in there!
1285
01:32:08,089 --> 01:32:11,354
Drop the child first,
give us a moment to reset...
1286
01:32:11,526 --> 01:32:13,858
...then you jump.
- All right.
1287
01:32:19,000 --> 01:32:20,331
Oh, Johnny.
1288
01:32:24,205 --> 01:32:26,366
Now, are you ready?
1289
01:32:26,641 --> 01:32:28,609
I'm ready.
1290
01:32:30,244 --> 01:32:31,711
Stay back.
1291
01:32:33,247 --> 01:32:34,578
You can't go up. Get back.
1292
01:32:34,749 --> 01:32:38,241
No, I know he's still alive up there.
He's still alive.
1293
01:32:44,325 --> 01:32:47,021
- I'm going in!
- You can't!
1294
01:32:47,261 --> 01:32:50,162
- Stop me!
- Me too.
1295
01:32:58,039 --> 01:32:59,904
Hey, where you going? Get back here!
1296
01:33:00,074 --> 01:33:03,009
- You want me to go in?
- No, you take over here. I'm going in.
1297
01:33:03,177 --> 01:33:04,940
Let's get these vehicles out of here.
1298
01:33:08,583 --> 01:33:11,074
Three of them now inside.
1299
01:33:53,961 --> 01:33:56,521
There he is!
1300
01:34:10,244 --> 01:34:11,677
Steve!
1301
01:34:16,784 --> 01:34:19,412
You okay?
1302
01:34:19,587 --> 01:34:21,953
I love you.
1303
01:34:28,663 --> 01:34:31,461
You all right? You okay?
1304
01:34:37,171 --> 01:34:40,937
Let's go home. Let's go home, okay?
1305
01:34:44,812 --> 01:34:46,279
Please.
1306
01:34:50,351 --> 01:34:52,945
God bless you.
1307
01:34:58,125 --> 01:34:59,592
It's him, isn't it?
1308
01:34:59,827 --> 01:35:01,954
The same guy from the movie house.
1309
01:35:02,496 --> 01:35:04,964
You know, I guess
it doesn't matter who it is.
