Man: PACKAGE FOR
ROBERT GARFIELD?

YEAH.
SIGN HERE.

THANKS.
[DOOR CLOSES]

Bobby: WHENEVER IT WANTS,

THE PAST CAN COME KICKING
THE DOOR DOWN.

AND...YOU NEVER KNOW
WHERE IT'S GONNA TAKE YOU.

ALL YOU CAN DO IS HOPE
IT'S A PLACE YOU WANT TO GO.

Bobby on machine: HI. YOU'VE
REACHED THE GARFIELD FAMILY.

JILL AND THE BOYS
ARE AWAY SKIING.

YOU CAN REACH THEM ON
THEIR VARIOUS CELL PHONES.

ME, I'M GONNA BE ON
THE ROAD FOR A FEW DAYS.

ON BEHALF OF THE PRESIDENT
OF THE UNITED STATES

AND THE PEOPLE
OF A GRATEFUL NATION,

I PRESENT THIS FLAG AS
A TOKEN OF APPRECIATION

FOR THE HONORABLE AND
FAITHFUL SERVICE RENDERED

BY YOUR HUSBAND,
MAJOR JOHN SULLIVAN,

KNOWN AS SULLY.

Boy: HEY, SULLY!
HEY!

Sully: BOBBY,
I DECIDED LAST NIGHT

WHAT I WANT TO BE
WHEN I GROW UP.

WHAT'S THAT?
A MAGICIAN!

I'LL PULL RABBITS
AND SHIT OUT OF A HAT!

RABBITS WILL PROBABLY
SHIT IN YOUR HAT.

BUT I'D BE A COOL BASTARD.
COME ON, ADMIT IT.

[ECHOING LAUGHTER]

[TAPS PLAYING]

THERE'S CAKE AND COFFEE
AT THE VETERANS' HALL.

OF COURSE,
YOU'RE ALL WELCOME.

[LOW CONVERSATION]

MR. GARFIELD.
MR. OLIVER.

HELLO.
HI.

THANKS FOR
SENDING THE GLOVE.

BEEN SULLY'S LAWYER
SINCE FOREVER.

COULDN'T FOR THE LIFE
OF ME SEE WHY

A BASEBALL GLOVE
HAD TO GO THROUGH PROBATE.

YOU AND SULLY
WERE KIDS TOGETHER?

YEAH.
THERE WERE 3 OF US.

WELL, THERE WAS
ME AND SULLY

AND THERE WAS
A GIRL NAMED CAROL.

CAROL GERBER?
THAT'S RIGHT.

YEAH. I'M HOPING
SHE'LL BE HERE.

YOU DIDN'T HEAR
ABOUT CAROL?

NO.

I'M AFRAID SHE'S DEAD.

I'M SO SORRY.

[GASPING]

[SIGHS]

Bobby: THIS STREET
IS WHERE IT ALL HAPPENED.

IT'S NOT MUCH NOW.

WHY DO WE ALWAYS EXPECT
HOME WILL STAY THE SAME?

NOTHING ELSE DOES.

[LOCK RATTLES]

IT'S FUNNY
HOW WHEN YOU'RE A KID

A DAY CAN LAST FOREVER.

NOW...ALL THESE YEARS
SEEMED JUST LIKE A BLINK.

* YOU BROKE *

* MY HEART *

* WHEN YOU SAID *

* WE'LL PART *

* AIN'T THAT... *

HAPPY BIRTHDAY, MR. 11.
TA-DA!

OH, WOW.
A LIBRARY CARD.

A GROWN-UP'S LIBRARY CARD,
IF YOU PLEASE.

[SIGHS] THANKS, MOM.
IT'S--

JUST DON'T.

DON'T YOU THINK I WANTED
TO GET YOU A BIKE?

I CAN'T AFFORD IT.

DO YOU KNOW HOW
THAT MAKES ME FEEL?

YOUR FATHER DIDN'T EXACTLY
LEAVE US WELL OFF, YOU KNOW.

I'LL TELL YOU
WHAT HE DID LEAVE US.

HE LEFT US
3 MONTHS UNPAID RENT,

A LIFE INSURANCE POLICY

THAT LAPSED THE YEAR
BEFORE HE DIED.

HE LEFT A RATHER LARGE
STACK OF UNPAID BILLS

WHICH I HAVE PRETTY WELL
MANAGED TO TAKE CARE OF,

BECAUSE PEOPLE HAVE BEEN VERY
UNDERSTANDING OF OUR SITUATION.

MR. BIDERMAN AT THE OFFICE
IS A VERY GOOD EXAMPLE,

BUT IT HAS NOT BEEN EASY.
YOU GET THAT?

SO, LET ME PUT IT THIS WAY--

YOUR FATHER NEVER MET AN INSIDE
STRAIGHT HE DIDN'T LIKE.

WHAT'S AN
INSIDE STRAIGHT?

NEVER YOU MIND, BOBBY-O.

DON'T YOU EVER LET ME CATCH YOU
PLAYING CARDS FOR MONEY.

HAD ENOUGH OF THAT
TO LAST ME A LIFETIME.

COME ON, THEN!

HAT MUST BE THE NEW TENANT
FOR THE UPSTAIRS APARTMENT.

I DON'T TRUST PEOPLE WHO MOVE
THEIR THINGS IN PAPER BAGS.

THAT'S SO SLUTTY.

WELL, HE HAS SUITCASES.

YES, BUT THEY DON'T
MATCH, DO THEY?

OH, HELLO, FOLKS.
I'M TED BRAUTIGAN.

I'LL BE LIVING UPSTAIRS
FOR A WHILE. MA'AM.

HOW DO YOU DO?

I'M ELIZABETH GARFIELD
AND THIS IS MY SON ROBERT,

AND IT'S VERY NICE
TO MEET YOU, MR. BRATTIGAN,

BUT TEMPUS FUGIT.

IT'S BRAUTIGAN,
MA'AM,

BUT TED WILL BE
FINE WITH ME.

Bobby: IT'S NICE TO
MEET YOU, MR. BRAUTIGAN.

GO ON NOW.

I HOPE YOU'LL
LIKE IT HERE.

BOBBY!
THANK YOU, ROBERT.

YEAH.

Carol:
BIRTHDAY BOY! MWAH!

CAROL, IT'S HARD
ENOUGH BEING FRIENDS

WITHOUT YOU PULLING
STUFF LIKE THAT.

YOU LOVED IT.
HERE.

IS THIS GONNA BE GUSHY?

I DON'T KNOW.

BETTER NOT BE.

OH.

JUST LIKE IT, HUH?

YEAH. THAT'S GREAT.
THANKS.

SURE.

DIDN'T GET THE BIKE,
DID YOU?

NO BIG DEAL.
MOM CAN'T AFFORD IT.

SHE BUYS HER
NEW DRESSES, THOUGH.

SHE HAS TO LOOK NICE FOR
THE OFFICE, DOESN'T SHE?

ARE YOU COMING?

YEAH!
COME ON!

[LAUGHING]
STOP! STOP!

* COME ON, BABY *

HEY, SULLY!
HEY!

* DOO WOP WOP *

* COME ON, BABY *

DID YOU GET THE BIKE?

NO.

WELL, I GOT
NOTHIN' FOR YOU,

BUT HAPPY BIRTHDAY
ANYWAY, YOU BASTARD!

* AND GO LIKE THIS *

* EE-OH, TWIST *

COME ON!

* BABY, TWIST *

HANG ON!
WAIT FOR ME!

* OOH, YEAH *

* MY DADDY IS SLEEPIN' *

* YEAH *

[SLURPING]

* AND MAMA AIN'T AROUND *

* WE'RE GONNA
TWIST AND TWIST AND TWIST *

WHAT'S AN
INSIDE STRAIGHT?

SOMETHING TO DO
WITH GAMBLING, ISN'T IT?

POKER. YOU TRY TO DRAW
A CARD IN THE MIDDLE.

IT'S DUMB. STRICTLY
FOR SUCKERS. HEH HEH.

[SLURPS]

* OOH, YEAH *

* JUST LIKE THIS *

THIS NEIGHBORHOOD IS
GETTIN' TERRIBLY RUN DOWN.

Bugs:
I THINK I'LL HAVE TO MOVE.

[TELEPHONE RINGS]

YEAH?

Liz: OH, IS THAT HOW
WE ANSWER THE PHONE?

OH, HI, MOM.
I'M SORRY.

I WAS JUST EXCITED
ABOUT DINNER AND ALL.

WELL, BOBBY,
MR. BIDERMAN IS SWAMPED

AND HAS TO WORK LATE

AND NEEDS ME
TO DO THE SAME,

SO BIRTHDAY DINNER
AT THE COLONY IS OFF.

Bobby: OH. OK, MOM.

THERE ARE LEFTOVERS
IN THE FRIDGE

AND I'LL BE HOME
TO TUCK YOU IN.

OH, AND, BOBBY, MAKE SURE
TO TURN OFF THE GAS RING

WHEN YOU'RE DONE WITH
THE STOVE, ALL RIGHTY?

I KNOW.

SEE YOU SOON.

[TYPING]

EVENING, ROBERT.

HMM?

OR SHOULD I SAY
BOBBY?

OH, MR. BRAUTIGAN.
HI.

IT'S TED.

SORRY.

TED'LL BE HARD FOR ME,
BUT I'LL TRY.

YOU GOING OUT LATER?

OH. I WAS SUPPOSED TO HAVE
A BIRTHDAY DINNER WITH MY MOM,

BUT SHE HAD TO STAY AT WORK.

EVEN THOUGH
SHE DIDN'T WANT TO.

ARE YOU A RICH MAN, THEN?

FROM YOUR BIRTHDAY GIFTS.

OH. [SIGHS]

JUST A LIBRARY CARD?

AN ADULT LIBRARY CARD.
OH, MY.

ALL THE MASTER
STORYTELLERS

OF THE WORLD
JUST WAITING FOR YOU.

YOU KNOW WHY SHE PICKED IT?
BECAUSE IT WAS FREE.

AH, THAT DOESN'T MATTER.

DON'T YOU GIVE UP
ON THIS CARD, BOBBY,

'CAUSE BOOKS
CAN BE SOLID GOLD.

THE GREAT ONES
HAVE BEEN GETTING US

THROUGH THE NIGHTS
FOR CENTURIES NOW.

JUST GIVE A WRITER
AN HOUR OR TWO TO HOOK YOU

AND IF HE CAN'T,

WISH HIM THE BEST
AND FIND SOMEONE ELSE.

THINK YOU CAN TRY THAT?

WELL, IF YOU DON'T HAVE
ANYTHING ELSE TO DO...

WELL, FAIR ENOUGH.

DON'T BE AFRAID.

A TALE OF TWO CITIES
ENDS WITH A BEHEADING,

ALL KINDS OF
GREAT STUFF.

LOST HORIZON--
MAGIC IN PLACES UNKNOWN.

CAN'T BEAT THAT.

[TRAIN HORN BLOWS]

WHERE'D YOU LIVE BEFORE
YOU CAME HERE, MR.--TED?

SOME OTHER PLACE THAT
WASN'T AS NICE AS THIS.

YOU, BOBBY, YOU
LIVED HERE LONG?

YES, SIR.
SINCE MY DAD DIED.

AH. WHEN WAS
THAT SAD DAY?

WHEN I WAS 5.

6 YEARS, HUH?

I BET YOU KNOW EVERYTHING
THAT HAPPENS ON THIS STREET.

SURE DO...

BECAUSE NOTHING HAPPENS
ON THIS STREET.

OH.

[SIGHS] 6 YEARS.

AH, THAT'S JUST A BLINK.

SOME DAY YOU'LL AGREE.

YOU KNOW, BEN JONSON CALLED
TIME "THE OLD BALD CHEATER."

WHAT?

BEN JONSON CALLED TIME
THE "OLD BALD CHEATER."

I LIKE THAT.

I THINK I DO, TOO.

WHO'S BEN JONSON?

HE WAS AN ENGLISH WRITER.
DEAD THESE MANY YEARS.

BRILLIANT, BUT FOOLISH
ABOUT MONEY.

AND...GIVEN TO FLATULENCE.

WHAT'S FLATULENCE?

[FARTING NOISE]

[GIGGLES]

YEAH. KIDS ALWAYS THINK
FARTS ARE FUNNY.

MIGHT HAVE A JOB
FOR YOU LATER.

HAVE TO THINK ABOUT IT
FIRST, THOUGH.

REALLY?

YEAH.

IF IT WORKS OUT,
YOU MIGHT GET THAT BIKE.

HOW'D YOU KNOW
I WANTED A BIKE?

ALL KIDS WANT BIKES.

[DOOR CLOSES]

* ONLY YOU *

* CAN MAKE THIS WORLD
SEEM RIGHT *

* ONLY YOU *

* CAN MAKE *

* THE DARKNESS BRIGHT *

HEY, MOM, I TOOK
ANOTHER LOOK AT THAT BIKE.

MM-HMM?

IT'S A PHANTOM,
26-INCHER,

REAL SWELL.

NO, PERFECT.
PERFECT IS MORE LIKE IT.

WELL, START SAVING
THOSE PENNIES.

[KNOCKING]

TED? IT'S ME.

HI, KIDDO. COME IN.

THANKS FOR MAKING
THE SKYWARD JOURNEY.

AN ICY ROOT BEER
AWAITS YOU AS A REWARD.

COLDER THE BETTER.

ONE FEELS THEM FIRST AT
THE BACK OF ONE'S EYES.

FEELS WHAT?

ONE FEELS THEM FIRST AT
THE BACK OF ONE'S EYES.

YEAH.

HEY, I DID LIKE YOU SAID.

WHAT?

I GAVE HIM
A COUPLE OF HOURS.

OH, YEAH. LOST HORIZON.
WHAT DO YOU THINK?

BETTER THAN
THE HARDY BOYS.

YEAH, SURE IS.

TELL ME, BOBBY...

HOW WOULD YOU LIKE
TO MAKE A DOLLAR A WEEK?

WOULD I EVER!

WELL, THE TRUTH IS,

MY EYES ARE BEGINNING
TO FAIL ME,

AND IF YOU WILL READ ME
THE HARWICH JOURNAL EVERY DAY,

HEADLINE STUFF, SPORTS,
COMICS, WANT ADS,

I'LL GIVE YOU SAID DOLLAR.
WHAT DO YOU SAY, KIDDO?

[DRINKING ROOT BEER]

WHAT ELSE?

WHAT DO YOU MEAN?

THERE'S GOT TO BE MORE
TO IT THAN THAT.

YEAH, THERE IS.

SO WHAT'S THE REAL JOB?

I WANT YOU TO KEEP YOUR
EYES OPEN, THAT'S ALL.

FOR WHAT?

LOW MEN.

THAT'S RIGHT, BOBBY.

I USE THE TERM "LOW"
IN THE DICKENSIAN SENSE,

MEANING "DANGEROUS"--
FELLOWS WHO ARE RUTHLESS

AND STOP AT NOTHING
TO GET WHAT THEY WANT.

YOUR REAL JOB
WILL SIMPLY BE TO...

WALK AROUND THE AREA...

AND IF YOU SEE THEM

OR FIND EVIDENCE
THAT THEY'VE BEEN HERE,

YOU WILL ALERT ME
IMMEDIATELY, OK?

OK.

AND WHY ARE THEY
HOT ON YOUR TRAIL?

[EXHALES]

A CERTAIN SOMETHING
I HAPPEN TO HAVE.

LET'S LEAVE IT AT THAT.

[TRAIN HORN BLOWING]

SO WHAT DO THEY
LOOK LIKE?

HMM?

WELL, THEY WEAR
DARK CLOTHES, DARK HATS.

THEY'RE KIND OF ANONYMOUS,

BUT YOU CAN RECOGNIZE THEM
BY THE CARS THEY DRIVE--

LOUD AND FLASHY.

WHEN THEY MOVE,
THEY MOVE IN PACKS,

LIKE ANIMALS CLOSING IN
ON THE KILL.

AND, UH...

THEY CAST LONG SHADOWS.

AH, WHAT A WORLD.
[EXHALES]

THEY'RE NOT COPS,
ARE THEY?

OR SECRET AGENTS?

ARE YOU ASKING
IF I'M A BAD GUY

OR A COMMIE SPY?

IT'S TRUE, I'VE SCAMPED
MY SHARE OF FINES,

AND IF THERE WERE
LIBRARY POLICE,

I'D BE ONE OF THEIR
"TEN MOST WANTED,"

BUT, NO,
I NEVER ROBBED A BANK

OR STOLE
A MILITARY SECRET.

SO WHO ARE THEY?

HMM?

THEY'RE THUGS, BULLIES,
CALL THEM WHAT YOU WILL.

THEY'RE BULLDOGS.

RELENTLESS WHEN
THEY'RE AFTER SOMETHING.

LIKE THIS SOMETHING
YOU HAVE?

THAT'S RIGHT.

AND WHAT THEY WANT IS ME
BACK UNDER THEIR CONTROL.

SO YOU BE ON
THE LOOKOUT FOR THEM,

BECAUSE WHEN
THEY'RE CLOSING IN,

THEY LEAVE
STRANGE SIGNS IN CODE

IN OBVIOUS PLACES
LIKE TELEPHONE POLES--

POSTERS AND NOTICES FOR
LOST PETS AND LOST DOGS.

NOW, IF I KNEW
WHAT THEY MIGHT DO,

THEY'D NEVER CATCH ME,
BUT I DON'T.

WHAT DO I DO
IF I SEE THEM?

RUN LIKE HELL WAS AFTER YOU
AND TELL ME WHAT YOU'VE SEEN.

YOU REMEMBER
WHEN WE MET A WEEK AGO

AND I ASKED YOU IF YOU KNEW
WHAT WAS GOING ON AROUND HERE?

SURE.

THAT'S WHY YOU'RE
MY MAN, KIDDO.

DON'T WORRY, TED.

I WON'T LET
THE BOGEYMEN GET YOU.

Liz: BOBBY?
ARE YOU UP THERE?

DON'T WORRY.

SHE CAN'T POSSIBLY KNOW
WHAT YOU'RE THINKING.

YOU THINK SHE CAN AND
THAT'S HER POWER OVER YOU.

THAT'S A MOTHER'S POWER.

[LIZ KNOCKING]

MRS. GARFIELD.

WELL, IT'S VERY COZY
IN HERE.

OH, MOM, TED--
I MEAN, MR. BRAUTIGAN,

HE'S GONNA PAY ME
A DOLLAR A WEEK

JUST TO READ HIM
THE PAPERS EVERY DAY.

WELL, THAT'S
VERY GENEROUS.

DO YOU ALWAYS HAVE
YOUNG BOYS

READ YOU THE PAPERS,
MR. BRATTIGAN?

IT'S BRAUTIGAN, MA'AM,

AND, YES,
I NEED SOMEONE TO DO IT.

MY EYES AREN'T WHAT THEY USED
TO BE SINCE I RETIRED.

AND WHAT DID YOU DO
BEFORE THAT?

I WORKED UP NORTH.
VARIOUS PLACES.

WELL, COME ALONG, BOBBY.

TIME AND TIDE
WAIT FOR NO MAN.

BYE,
MR. BRAUTIGAN.

BOBBY.

[DOOR CLOSES]

MOM, GUESS WHAT
MR. BRAUTIGAN--

SHH, SHH, SHH.

OK.

SOMETHING DOESN'T
MAKE SENSE TO ME.

WHAT?

WHY WOULD A MAN HIS AGE

WANT TO SPEND THAT MUCH
TIME WITH A KID?

I DON'T KNOW...

BUT WHAT I DO KNOW
IS THAT HE SAID

I MUST BE SOME LUCKY KID
TO HAVE A MOM

WHO WOULD ACTUALLY
LET ME HAVE

A GROWN-UP LIBRARY CARD
FOR MY BIRTHDAY.

[SIGHS]
I DON'T KNOW.

I TRUST HIM
ABOUT AS FAR

AS I COULD
SLING A PIANO.

THAT'S RIGHT.
SPOIL IT FOR ME.

YOU JUST NEVER WANT ME
TO GET THAT BIKE.

I DO--I DO, AND
I WISH I COULD HAVE

GOTTEN IT
FOR YOU MYSELF,

BUT YOUR FATHER DIDN'T
EXACTLY LEAVE US

WELL OFF, YOU KNOW.

[SIGHS]
IT'S ONLY READING.

[COME FLY WITH ME
PLAYING ON RECORD PLAYER]

[SIGHS] ALL RIGHT.
WHAT'S THE HARM?

YES, YES, YES, YES.

BUT ONLY ON THE PORCH,
MIND, IN THE FRESH AIR.

OK.

* IF YOU CAN USE *

* SOME EXOTIC BOOZE *

[LOUDER] * THERE'S A BAR
IN FAR BOMBAY *

* COME FLY WITH ME *

* LET'S FLY, LET'S FLY AWAY *

[LAUGHS]

* COME FLY WITH ME *

* LET'S FLOAT DOWN TO PERU *

BYE, BOBBY.
BYE, CAROL.

* IN LLAMA LAND... *

SORRY, I'M LATE, TED.
I FORGOT THE TIME.

THAT'S ALL RIGHT.

WE'RE ALL TIME'S CAPTIVES,

HOSTAGES TO ETERNITY.

BEN JONSON?

NO. BORIS PASTERNAK.

HE WAS A RUSSIAN...

OF NO ACCOUNT, I THINK.

SO WHAT'S GOING ON
IN THE BIG, WIDE WORLD?

SOMETHING SCURRILOUS,
I SUPPOSE.

"VICE PRESIDENT
RICHARD M. NIXON,

"AFTER HAVING WON
THE REPUBLICAN NOMINATION

"FOR PRESIDENT
ON THE FIRST BALLOT,

CONFERS WITH
HENRY CABOT LODGE"--

Carol: WE'RE GOIN'
FOR SOME ICE CREAM.

YOU WANT TO COME?

CAN'T. EARNING
MY DAILY BREAD.

AFTERNOON,
MRS. GERBER, CAROL.

HI, TED.

I NEVER EVER SAW

A GIRL AS SPECIAL
AS CAROL GERBER.

THERE'S MILLIONS.

OH, YEAH?

HAVE YOU KISSED HER YET?

YUCK.

WELL, YOU WILL.
I PROMISE YOU.

STAY AWAY.

HA. YOU WILL,

AND IT WILL BE THE KISS

BY WHICH ALL OTHERS
IN YOUR LIFE WILL BE JUDGED...

AND FOUND WANTING.

ARE YOU DONE?

YEAH. COME ON, READ TO ME.

GO ON. COME BACK HERE
AND DO YOUR JOB.

OK.

BUT YOU WILL KISS HER.

[SANTO & JOHNNY'S
SLEEP WALK PLAYING]

[LAUGHTER AND YELLING]

Carol: COME ON.

[LAUGHING]

NICE GOIN'.

GET IN, PLEASE.

[LAUGHING]

Bobby:
HERE! GIMME IT!

COME ON.
PLEASE?

COME ON, SULLY.

Carol: SULLY.

Bobby: "F.B.I.
ANNOUNCES NEW MEASURES

TO COMBAT
RED INFILTRATORS."

HMPH.

HEY, BOBBY.

YEAH.

WHEN YOU GET
TO FLASH GORDON,

BE SURE AND TELL ME WHAT
DALE ARDEN'S WEARING.

WHAT IS IT
WITH YOU AND HER?

WELL, IF YOU MUST KNOW,
WHEN I WAS YOUNGER

I THOUGHT SHE WAS
A REAL HOTSY-TOTSY.

[CHUCKLES]

OK, BEFORE COMICS,
WE'VE GOT SPORTS...

BASEBALL. MMPH.

"MAURY WILLS ON THE WAY
TO BREAK TY COBB'S RECORD."

I SAW COBB.

MY DAD SAW BABE RUTH.

HE SAW HIM POINT
FOR THE HOME RUN...

OH.
AGAINST THE CUBS.

HE TOLD ME ALL ABOUT IT.

HE TELL YOU OF NAGURSKI'S
COMEBACK GAME?

I KNOW HE SAW IT, THOUGH.

WERE YOU THERE?

YEAH.

YOU AND MY DAD
WERE AT THE SAME PLACE.

YOU KNOW ABOUT
BRONKO NAGURSKI, HUH?

HE WAS MY DAD'S HERO,
THAT'S ALL.

THE GREATEST FOOTBALL
PLAYER THAT EVER LIVED.

AFTER COLLEGE,
HE CAME TO CHICAGO,

PLAYED 8 YEARS
FOR THE BEARS,

MADE THEM CHAMPIONS,

THEN HE RETIRED.

WHEN HE WAS OLD,
6 YEARS RETIRED,

THE BEARS BROUGHT HIM
BACK AS A SUBSTITUTE.

LAST GAME OF THE SEASON,

THEY WERE PLAYING
THE CROSSTOWN CARDINALS--

SWORN ENEMIES.

THE BEARS HAD TO BEAT
THE CARDINALS

TO WIN THE CHAMPIONSHIP.

NAGURSKI WASN'T
SUPPOSED TO PLAY,

THIRD-STRING FULLBACK.
[CROWD CHEERING SOFTLY]

THEN IN THE FIRST HALF,
THE STARTER WENT DOWN.

THE SECOND HALF,
THERE WAS A PILE-UP.

OH, NO.

IF YOUR DAD WAS HERE
TELLING YOU THIS,

HE WOULD HAVE SAID
HE WAS FRIGHTENED, BOBBY.

HE WAS JUST SO SCARED.

BUT WHY? NAGURSKI
WAS IN THE GAME.

I WAS SCARED, TOO.
WE ALL WERE.

SO WE WANTED A MIRACLE,
YOU SEE, BOBBY.

WE--WE WANTED HIM
THE WAY HE WAS,

THE OLD BRONKO NAGURSKI.

WE WANTED HIM
THE WAY HE USED TO BE

BACK IN THE OLD DAYS.

DID HE DO GOOD, TED?

'CAUSE I DON'T WANT
TO HEAR THIS IF HE DIDN'T.

WELL, THE QUARTERBACK
GAVE HIM THE BALL,

AND NAGURSKI RAN
SLOWLY UP TO THE LINE,

AND THE CARDINALS
CRUSHED HIM,

BUT SOMEHOW...

[GAME CHATTER]

SOMEHOW HE GAINED
A FEW YARDS.

NEXT PLAY, THE SAME.
SAME THING PLAY AFTER THAT.

THEY JUST KEPT GIVING
THE BALL TO THE OLD MAN,

AND THE BEARS BEGAN
TO MOVE DOWN THE FIELD,

5 YARDS, 10 YARDS...
[WHISTLE BLOWS FAINTLY]

7 MORE.

IF HE JUST COULD SCORE
FOR US, WE COULD WIN.

WE COULD BE CHAMPIONS
AGAIN.

GO ON, TED.
YOU CAN'T STOP.

HUH.

TED.

COME ON. I'VE GOTTA
KNOW WHAT HAPPENED.

COME ON.

YOU KNOW WHAT YOUR DAD
DID RIGHT THEN, BOBBY?

NO, NO, NO. YEAH.
WHAT DID MY FATHER DO?

HE JUMPED TO HIS FEET.
HE WAS SCREAMING.

WE ALL WERE BECAUSE
WE COULDN'T BELIEVE

WHAT WAS HAPPENING
ON THE FIELD.

OH, MY GOD,
WHAT WAS IT? GO ON.

IT WAS OUR MIRACLE,
YOU SEE...

[CROWD CHANTING]

BECAUSE
HE WAS CRAWLING.

BRONKO NAGURSKI WAS CRAWLING
TOWARD THE GOAL LINE,

AND THEY JUST PILED
EVERYTHING ON HIM,

DID EVERYTHING
THEY COULD TO STOP HIM.

BUT NOTHING
COULD STOP HIM.

YEAH,
THAT'S RIGHT, BOBBY,

NOT ON THAT DAY,

NOT WHEN YOUR DAD AND I
SAW THE MIRACLE,

WHEN THE OLD MAN
BROUGHT US HOME.

[CROWD CHEERING]

HE SCORED.

HE SCORED FOR US.

Crowd:
NAGURSKI! NAGURSKI!

WE WERE CHAMPIONS AGAIN.

I JUST KNEW HE WOULD.

[CROWD FADES]

YEAH, THEN
HE WAS GONE AGAIN,

BACK TO THE NORTH
WHERE HE CAME FROM.

BRONKO NAGURSKI.
[DISTANT BELL CHIMING]

Liz: BOBBY! BOBBY-O!

TED.

YEAH.

WELL, I KNOW THE LOW MEN
DON'T EXIST,

BUT IF A BUNCH OF 'EM

STARTED DRIVING
AROUND HERE

AND THE STRANGE SIGNS
STARTED APPEARING

ON THE TELEPHONE POLES--

WELL, WE BOTH KNOW
THAT COULDN'T HAPPEN,

BUT IF IT DID...

WOULD YOU HAVE
TO GO AWAY?

YEAH. IT WOULDN'T BE SAFE
FOR ME HERE, KIDDO,

AND WISHING CANNOT
MAKE IT SO.

Liz: BOBBY!

[DOOR CLOSES]

BOBBY, THIS TED OF YOURS...

DID HE TELL YOU
WHERE HE CAME FROM?

EH. SOME PLACE
NOT AS NICE AS HERE

I THINK HE SAID.

AH.

WELL, THAT DOESN'T
TELL US MUCH, DOES IT?

MMM.

ANYTHING ELSE?

NOPE.

BOBBY...

HMM?

DOES HE--

WHAT?

NOTHING.

[TELEPHONE RINGING]

JUST PROMISE ME
YOU'LL TELL ME

IF ANYTHING UNUSUAL
HAPPENS, ALL RIGHT?

HELLO?

HI.

YOU PROMISED.

I REALLY NEED THE--

[TELEPHONE HANGS UP]

WHO WAS THAT?

NOTHING, HONEY.
IT'S JUST A WRONG NUMBER.

[DOOR SLAMS]

Liz: SON OF A BITCH.

[CRYING]

I KNOW IT'S YOU, BOBBY.

YOUR MOM SAYS
SHE'S ALMOST READY.

GREAT! YOU THINK TED
WOULD LIKE TO COME?

TO THE FAIR?

DON'T YOU THINK
HE'D LIKE TO BE ASKED?

I GUESS.

YOU DO IT.
I'LL GO GET SULLY.

OK.

HEY, HOW DO YOU LIKE
BEING BEATEN BY A GIRL?

[LAUGHS]
HEY, NO FAIR.

[GROWLS]

MR. BIDERMAN
NEEDS ME TO COME IN.

ON A SATURDAY?

WELL, SOME PEOPLE HAVE
TO WORK FOR THEIR MONEY.

MOM.
WHAT?

YOU PROMISED.

OH, HONEY. THESE ARE
JUST KOOLS, BOBBY-O.

READ THE ADVERTISING.

KOOLS. THEY COOL
THE THROAT.

THEY'RE HARDLY EVEN
CIGARETTES AT ALL.

MOM?

WHAT?

COULD I PLEASE HAVE
A LITTLE MONEY

FOR THE RIDES AND STUFF?

OHH, YOU NEVER STOP,
DO YOU?

HONEY, AREN'T YOU EARNING
YOUR OWN MONEY NOW?

YEAH, BUT THAT'S
FOR THE BIKE.

WELL, IF YOU WANT
TO SPEND IT

RIDING THE LOOP-DE-LOOP
WITH YOUR LITTLE GIRLFRIEND

THAT'S YOUR BUSINESS.

[KNOCKS ON DOOR]

TED, IT'S ME.

YOU WANT TO COME
TO THE FAIR?

[KNOCKS]

TED?

IS EVERYTHING OK?

[BREATHING HEAVILY]

TED, WAKE UP.

TED, YOU'VE
GOTTA HELP ME.

TED, I DON'T
KNOW WHAT TO DO.

THEY DRAW WEST NOW.

WHO? JESUS, TED,
PLEASE.

THEY DRAW WEST NOW,
BUT THEY MAY BE BACK.

TED, PLEASE,
YOU CAN'T DIE ON ME.

PLEASE.

AAH!

[SIGHS]

OH, MY GOD.

WHAT JUST HAPPENED?

[SIGHS]

I WENT OFF AGAIN, DIDN'T I?

YOU MEAN LIKE
AT THE FRIDGE?

YEAH.

NO. WAY WORSE.

I THOUGHT YOU WERE
HAVING A FIT

OR SOMETHING.

NO, IT'S ALL RIGHT,
BOBBY.

BUT IF IT HAPPENS AGAIN,

IT'S BEST YOU
DIDN'T TOUCH ME.

NOBODY SHOULD TOUCH ME,
THAT'S ALL.

SORRY.

IS IT SAFE
TO LEAVE YOU ALONE?

YEAH.

IT'S OK.

[SIGHS] OK.

UM, MRS. GERBER'S
TAKING US TO THE FAIR.

CAROL AND I THOUGHT
YOU MIGHT LIKE TO COME.

THANK YOU, BOBBY,
BUT I THINK JUST NOW,

UM, IT'S NOT WISE.

THE CIGARETTES
ARE ON THE TABLE.

THANKS, KIDDO.

WHAT'S SO FUNNY?

YOU RUN ALONG NOW.
ENJOY YOURSELF.

DON'T FALL OUT
OF ANYTHING.

[CHILDREN SCREAMING]

* OH, CAROL *

* DON'T LET HIM STEAL
YOUR HEART AWAY *

* I'M GONNA LEARN TO DANCE *

* IF IT TAKES ME
ALL NIGHT AND DAY *

[SCREAMING]

* CLIMB INTO MY MACHINE
SO WE CAN CRUISE ON OUT *

* I KNOW
A SWINGIN' LITTLE JOINT *

* WHERE WE CAN
JUMP AND SHOUT *

* IT'S NOT TOO FAR
BACK OFF THE HIGHWAY *

* NOT TOO FAR OF A RIDE *

NO!

YES!

YES! YES!

Child: YAY!

WHAT ARE YOU
GONNA NAME IT?

WHAT'S HIS NAME?

ALL RIGHT,

STEP RIGHT UP,
STEP RIGHT UP.

HEY, WHO FEELS LUCKY?

FIND THE QUEEN
OF HEARTS

AND WIN YOURSELF
ANOTHER DAY.

HEY, EASY AS CAN BEEZY.

EASY-PEEZY-JAPANEEZY.

ALL YOU GOTTA DO IS

FIND THE QUEEN
OF HEARTS.

HERE, PUT DOWN
YOUR BET.

I'LL DO IT AGAIN.

JUST ONE QUARTER.

ALL RIGHT,
ONE.

SEE, A JACK.
WE GOT THE KING,

AND WE GOT THE QUEEN.

JUST TELL ME WHERE
THE LADY LANDS.

HEH!
Crowd: AHH.

FORTUNE AWAITS YOU.

THAT ONE THERE.

YES!
GENIUS.

OK.

Mrs. Gerber: OK.

[MOVING CARDS]

UM, THAT ONE THERE.

OH.
OH.

Dealer:
HEARTBREAK.

OK, KIDS,
THAT'S ENOUGH.

MRS. GERBER, I CAN BEAT HIM.
I CAN SPOT HIS MOVES.

I MAY AS WELL
GIVE UP, THEN.

JUST A QUARTER.
ONE.

OK.
[LAUGHS]

[SING-SONG]
UP AND DOWN, ALL AROUND,

IN AND OUT,
ALL ABOUT.

NOW THEY'RE BACK,
SIDE BY SIDE.

TELL ME, MISTER,
WHERE DOES SHE HIDE?

IT'S THE ONE
ON THE RIGHT.

Sully:
NO, NO, NO, NO.

IT'S THE ONE ON
THE LEFT RIGHT THERE.

THAT'S MY BABY,
RIGHT THERE.

All: OHH.

OK, GANG,
THAT'S ENOUGH.

HEY, BOBBY WAS RIGHT.

Dealer: A PRODIGY
WALKS AMONGST US.

HEY, WHY DON'T YOU
WIN EVERYBODY

THEIR MONEY BACK?

UH, YOU KNOW,
I COULD,

BUT I'M NOT SUPPOSED
TO PLAY CARDS

FOR MONEY, SO--

A BOASTY BOY.

HE SAYS HE CAN WIN,
BUT HE'S TOO AFRAID

TO BACK UP HIS BOAST.

BOBBY, I COULD HAVE
MY MONEY BACK.

COME ON.
BEAT HIM FOR ME.

UH--
COME ON!

Mrs. Gerber:
I DON'T THINK

I CAN LET YOU
DO THIS, SWEETIE.

YOUR MOTHER WOULD
NOT BE HAPPY.

MY MOM'S
NEVER HAPPY.

OK. IT'S ALL
I GOT.

THIS IS THE MOVE
THAT STUNNED

THE SHEIK OF ARABY.
BEHOLD.

THIS ONE RIGHT HERE,
IN THE MIDDLE.

OH! THAT'S IT!

Sully:
ALL RIGHT, BOBBY!

IT WAS JUST A LUCKY
GUESS, MISTER.

WHY DON'T YOU
DOUBLE YOUR BET?

THAT WAY EVERYBODY
CAN GO HOME HAPPY.

FINE.

THIS NEXT ONE IS
5 YEARS OF MY LIFE.

[CARDS ECHOING]

THIS ONE HERE.

NOBODY EVER BEAT
THAT SHUFFLE.

WELL, MISTER,
IS IT OR ISN'T IT?

[GASPS] YES!
THAT'S THE ONE.

Sully:
ALL RIGHT, BOBBY!

IT WAS A FLUKE.

YOU BET IT WAS
A FLUKE.

NOW BEAT IT, KID.

OK, GANG, LET'S GO.

THAT'S ENOUGH.
LET'S GO.

COME ON, BOBBY.

STEP RIGHT UP!
WE HAD A WINNER HERE.

IT'S EASY AS CAN BEEZY.
EASY-PEEZY-JAPANEEZY!

Bobby:
YES, YES, YES!

DON'T BE AFRAID.

WHEN WE SWUNG OUT,
I-I WAS AFRAID

WE WERE COMING LOOSE
AND FALLING TO OUR DOOM.

WE'RE AS SAFE
AS CAN BE.

WHAT DO YOU THINK
YOU'RE DOING?

WELL, I THOUGHT
YOU WANTED ME TO.

I JUST WASN'T READY,
THAT'S ALL.

OK.

BOBBY, DO IT AGAIN.

I-I BETTER NOT.
YOU'LL TELL.

AH, NO, IT'LL BE
OUR SECRET.

HURRY, BEFORE
WE GO DOWN.

BOBBY, I'M DYING HERE.

[GIGGLES]

THANK YOU, BOBBY.

THAT WAS JUST
THE NICEST THING.

AND IT'LL BE THE KISS
BY WHICH ALL OTHERS

IN OUR LIFE
WILL BE JUDGED.

WHAT?

I DON'T KNOW.

SOUNDED BETTER
WHEN TED SAID IT.

[PLAYING HARMONICA]

Carol: YOU KNEW,
DIDN'T YOU?

WHERE THE QUEEN
OF HEARTS WAS?

Bobby: YEAH.

IT WAS LIKE I COULD
TELL EVERYTHING

THAT WAS GOING ON
IN HIS HEAD.

SO, EVERY THOUGHT
HE HAD, I KNEW IT,

AND HE COULDN'T
FOOL ME.

CAN YOU TELL
WHAT'S GOING ON

IN SULLY'S HEAD?

NAH, SULLY'S HEAD
IS ALWAYS EMPTY.

OH YEAH? MAYBE
I'M THINKING OF...

GETTING A NEW GLOVE
FOR NEXT YEAR.

YOU ARE? WELL--WELL,
WHAT ABOUT THAT ONE?

YOU REALLY WANT IT?

ARE YOU KIDDING?
I LOVE THAT GLOVE!

THEN, BOBBY GARFIELD,
IT IS YOURS.

I'LL LEAVE IT TO YOU
IN MY WILL.

SULLY, YOU JUST
LOVE DOING THAT.

[LAUGHING]
I GOT YOU AGAIN.

Bobby: WAIT,
NO, NO, NO, NO!

YOU KNOW,
WHEN YOU'RE YOUNG,

YOU HAVE MOMENTS
OF SUCH HAPPINESS.

YOU THINK YOU'RE LIVING
IN SOMEPLACE MAGICAL,

LIKE ATLANTIS
MUST HAVE BEEN.

Bobby:
OH, HEY, CAROL,

I OWE YOU $75
AND IT'S YOUR TURN.

OK.

HERE, GIVE ME
25 BACK.

25?

[ALL TALKING]

[LAUGHING]

Ted: THEN WE GROW UP...

AND OUR HEARTS
BREAK IN TWO.

[PLAYING]

[CHILDREN LAUGHING]

COME ON.

HANG ON.

WHAT IS IT?

I WONDER WHAT IT MEANS,
DON'T YOU?

IT MEANS SOMEBODY

LOST THEIR PET,
GOOFBALL. COME ON.

WELL, YEAH,
BUT MAYBE

IT'S A SECRET CODE
FOR SOMETHING.

A SECRET CODE?

WHAT ARE YOU
TALKING ABOUT?

Harry: HEY, FAIRY!
I'LL TAKE THAT!

I'M NOT
A FAIRY!

DON'T TALK
TO THEM!

HOW ARE YOUR TITS
COMING, GERBER BABY?

Carol: GO AWAY!

WHOO-HOO!

Bobby: SHUT UP,
HARRY DOOLIN!

[THEME MUSIC PLAYING]

[GUNSHOTS ON TV]

Lone Ranger:
HI YO, SILVER!

Liz: BOBBY-O,
HOW WAS SCHOOL?

GOOD.

YOU WILL NEVER GUESS.
DON--MR. BIDERMAN--

HAS INVITED ME
TO A SEMINAR

ON THE WEEKEND
IN PROVIDENCE.

"REAL ESTATE
IN THE SIXTIES."

MR. CUSHMAN AND MR. DEAN
ARE GOING TOO,

BUT I WAS AMAZED
THAT HE ASKED ME.

BOBBY.

BOBBY, I'VE WANTED TO BE
AN AGENT FOR SO LONG.

THIS IS
A BIG CHANCE FOR ME.

GREAT. WHEN IS IT?

FRIDAY AFTERNOON.
NOW, IT'S JUST FOR 2 NIGHTS.

NOW, I CAN'T
HAVE YOU STAYING

AT YOUR LITTLE
GIRLFRIEND'S HOUSE.

SHE'S NOT
MY GIRLFRIEND.

WHATEVER.
I CAN'T HAVE YOU

STAYING THERE
FOR OBVIOUS REASONS,

SO I'M GONNA ASK
SULLY-JOHN'S MOTHER

TO PUT YOU UP.

THAT'S NOT GONNA WORK.

BUT...IT HAS TO.

THEY'RE GONNA VISIT
HIS GRANDMA.

[SIGHS]
JUST MY LUCK.

JUST MY ROTTEN LUCK.

[FOOTSTEPS]

BOBBY, WHY DON'T YOU
ASK YOUR FRIEND

TO COME DOWN FOR
A NICE CUP OF TEA?

OK.

I'M SORRY,
MRS. GARFIELD,

BUT, UH, NO.

I-I WOULDN'T
BE MUCH

OF A BABY-SITTER
FOR BOBBY.

BUT I'VE NEVER
BEEN INVITED

TO A REAL SEMINAR
BEFORE.

YOU COULD SLEEP
ON THE PULL-OUT COUCH,

WHICH IS OH,
SO COMFORTABLE,

AND YOU TWO COULD GO
TO THE DINER,

AND THEN MAYBE EVEN
TAKE IN A MOVIE.

WELL, I'LL
TELL YOU WHAT.

IF BOBBY WANTS
ME TO, I WILL.

Liz: BOBBY?

WELL, HOW COME YOU GET
TO HAVE ALL THE FUN?

Liz: DON'T YOU WANT ME
TO BETTER MYSELF?

YEAH,
BUT WHAT ABOUT ME?

I NEVER GET
WHAT I WANT.

WELL, WHO KNOWS?

MAYBE MR. BIDERMAN
WILL GIVE ME A RAISE

AFTER THIS AND WHO KNOWS
WHAT I CAN AFFORD THEN?

I GUESS.
IF IT'S ONLY A WEEKEND.

[SIGHS]

THANK YOU.
GOOD.

IF I WERE YOU, SON,
I'D COME HERE

AND FIND OUT JUST
WHAT I DO KNOW.

YOU'RE GOING
TO APOLOGIZE

TO CAROL AND BOBBY.

I DON'T THINK SO.

SHALL I TELL YOU WHY

YOU'RE GOING
TO APOLOGIZE?

BECAUSE I KNOW
YOUR DARK SECRET.

I WILL TELL
THE WORLD.

I GOT NO SECRET.

YOU LIKE CALLING
PEOPLE QUEER AND...

FAIRY AND SUCH WORDS?

LOOK IN MY EYES,
HARRY DOOLIN.

TELL ME WHAT YOU SEE.

TELL ME IF YOU
SEE SOMEONE

ALL DRESSED UP IN
YOUR MOTHER'S CLOTHES,

NO ONE IS LOOKING.

TELL THE WHOLE WIDE WORLD.

NOW SAY,
"I'M SORRY, CAROL."

I'M REAL SORRY, CAROL.

Richie: YEAH,
WHAT'D HE SAY?

Harry: NOTHIN'.

Carol:

THEY'RE SO SCARY.
OH, I KNOW.

Bobby:

Ted: HAD ENOUGH TO EAT?

WHAT DO THEY CALL

I'VE HEARD IT REFERRED

YOUR LAST NAME

AND WINE COMES IN
A PAPER SACK, AND, UH...

YOU CAN BUY ALMOST
ANYTHING YOU WANT

IF YOU'VE GOT CASH
IN YOUR POCKET, THAT IS.

HEY, COME ON.

STAY CLOSE NOW.

DON'T WORRY

I SHOULDN'T BRING YOU

HOLLYWOOD HAYWOOD
VERSUS EDDIE ALBINI

TOMORROW NIGHT,
NEW YORK CITY.

I'VE GOT MONEY TO BURN.
WHAT DO YOU SAY?

NOT ONE STEP.

KING ME. HA HA HA!

TV: MAKING GOOD ON THE PROMISE.
HE PILES INTO BREON.

HOW ABOUT YOU, BUDDY?
READY FOR ANOTHER?

TV:
...HARDLY RECOGNIZE HIM

AS THE ALMOST TIMID MAN
WHO LOST HIS TITLE.

[MEN LAUGH,
POOL BALLS CLACK]

HEY, KID,
WHAT'S YOUR NAME?

BOBBY. BOBBY GARFIELD.

BEEN IN BEFORE?

NO, MA'AM.

YOU LOOK
KIND OF FAMILIAR.

DID I KNOW YOUR FATHER,
MAYBE?

MY FATHER'S DEAD.
HE DIED YEARS AGO.

WAS HE BOBBY, TOO?

BOBBY GARFIELD.
YES, MA'AM.

HE'S JUST LIKE ME.

YEAH. YEAH, HE WAS
A GOOD CUSTOMER.

I LIKED HIM.

HE USED TO STOP IN FOR A BEER
NOW AND THEN AND, UH...

YOU KNOW--IT'S LIKE ON MONDAYS,
IT WAS JUST DEAD IN HERE,

AND IN NO TIME FLAT,
WE WERE ALL LAUGHING.

NOT A MEAN BONE IN HIS BODY.

HE WAS GENEROUS, TOO.

NOT TOO MANY LIKE THAT IN HERE.

HE'D NEVER BUY A DRUNK A DRINK.

YOU KNOW, I ADMIRED THAT.

YEAH, AND HE ALSO NEVER MET
AN INSIDE STRAIGHT

THAT HE DIDN'T LIKE.

WHO TOLD YOU THAT?

NOW, I REMEMBER
THE BIG LOSERS.

AND MOST NIGHTS,
HE WALKED OUT OF HERE

WITH A LITTLE BIT MORE
THAN HE CAME IN WITH.

HE WAS A HELL OF
A CARD PLAYER, BOBBY WAS.

KEEP THAT IF YOU WANT.

HE'S HANDSOME,
DON'T YOU THINK?

YOU GOT THAT
TO LOOK FORWARD TO.

YOU GOT A GIRLFRIEND?

YES, MA'AM.

PRETTY?

YES, MA'AM.
HER NAME'S CAROL.

SHE'S A REAL HOTSY-TOTSY.

HA HA HA!
A WHAT?

LET'S GO, PARTNER.
TAXI'S WAITING.

TED, LISTEN,
MY DAD CAME HERE.

YEAH?

AND HE DIDN'T LOSE
ALL OUR MONEY

AND HE WAS GENEROUS
AND HE WAS FUNNY

AND PEOPLE LIKED HIM.

GOOD.

ISN'T THAT A THING?

YEAH. LUCKY FOR US
WE CAME IN HERE, I'D SAY.

YES, IT IS
A WONDERFUL THING.

SO HOW MUCH DID YOU BET?

ALL I'VE GOT--$200 ON ALBINI.

YOU THINK ALBINI CAN BEAT
HOLLYWOOD HAYWARD?

YEAH, I THINK HE CAN
KNOCK HIM OUT.

I BET ON HIM. 10-1 ODDS.

DO YOU KNOW ANYTHING
ABOUT BOXING?

NAH, NOTHING.
149 BROAD STREET. THANKS.

I GUESS IT'LL BE
ON THE RADIO.

WE'LL LISTEN TOMORROW NIGHT,
AND THEN WE'LL SEE.

I HOPE YOU KNOW
WHAT YOU'RE DOING, TED.

OH, NO, BOBBY,
HERE THEY COME.

GET DOWN. QUICKLY,
OUT OF SIGHT.

WHAT IS IT?

JUST TAKE YOUR MIND AWAY.
DON'T BE FRIGHTENED, BOBBY.

THINK OF SOMETHING ELSE.
JUST TAKE YOUR MIND AWAY.

HOW? WHAT DO I DO?

JUST THINK OF CAROL.
JUST THINK OF HER.

DON'T EVER LET HER GO.

THINK OF A HAPPY MEMORY.
THINK OF CAROL. [ECHOES]

DON'T EVER LET HER GO.

I'M PROUD OF YOU.

I'M SORRY I DIDN'T BELIEVE YOU
ABOUT THE LOW MEN.

I KNOW.

TED...MY FATHER NEVER

WHAT DOES THAT MEAN EXACTLY?

IT MEANS HE WAS A GOOD MAN,
HE WAS HONEST,

AND HE NEVER ADDED TO THE

TOO SAD ABOUT IT.

OH, GOOD. NOW DON'T FORGET

THAT'S FUNNY.

GOT CUT OFF.

THAT 2,000...

IT'S TRAVELING MONEY,
ISN'T IT?

YEAH, IT IS.

I LIED TO YOU, TED.

I DIDN'T TELL YOU ABOUT
THE "LOST PET" SIGN I SAW.

I KNOW.

WHEN WILL YOU LEAVE?

TOMORROW NIGHT,
WHEN YOUR MOTHER GETS BACK.

COLLECT MY WINNINGS
FROM LEN FILES

AT THE CORNER POCKET

WILL I EVER SEE YOU AGAIN?

NO.

ARE YOU A DOCTOR,
TED?

NO, I'M NOT A DOCTOR.

BUT AS YOU NOTED,
I'M VERY STRANGE.

SO WHO KNOWS
WHAT I CAN DO.

DO YOU HAVE
THE HEART OF A LION?

[CRYING]

ALL RIGHT.

JUST CLOSE YOUR EYES
AND TRY TO RELAX.

BOBBY, GIVE ME YOUR BELT.

NOW, CAROL, DO YOU KNOW
WHAT PAIN DOES?

Carol: HMM?

IT RISES.
IT TRAVELS UP THE BODY.

THAT'S IT. THANK YOU.

NOW, LISTEN TO ME, CAROL.

JUST LISTEN AND RELAX.

I WANT YOU TO BITE DOWN
HARD ON BOBBY'S BELT.

YOU'RE GOING TO BITE DOWN
ON BOBBY'S BELT

AND CATCH THE PAIN.

NOW, RELAX.

CLOSE YOUR EYES.

KEEP THEM CLOSED.

YOU'RE SAFE.
JUST BREATHE IN.

BREATHE OUT,
THAT'S IT.

THERE'S NO PAIN.

JUST LISTEN TO MY VOICE.

I CAN SENSE THEM
CLOSING IN ON ME, BOBBY.

I KNOW.

THERE'S SIGNS
EVERYWHERE.

HERE WE GO.

BITE DOWN HARD
AND CATCH THE--

HERE WE GO.

[SCREAMS]

SHH.

ALL RIGHT.

THERE.

TED?

YEAH?

IT DOESN'T HURT ANYMORE.

YOU DO HAVE
THE HEART OF A LION.

THANK YOU.

YOU DID WELL, KIDDO.

Liz: WHAT THE HELL
IS GOING ON IN HERE?

Bobby: OH, MOM, LOOK
WHAT HAPPENED TO YOU.

GOD! TAKE YOUR HANDS OFF
THAT LITTLE GIRL, YOU BASTARD!

MOM! HE DIDN'T
DO ANYTHING BAD!

HOW DARE
YOU TOUCH HER?

YOU SON
OF A BITCH!

MOM, NO!
HE DIDN'T HURT HER!

I FOUND HER IN THE PARK,
AND I BROUGHT HER HERE

SO THAT TED
COULD HELP HER!

GO TO YOUR ROOM!
AND YOU!

YOU FILTHY OLD MAN.
YOU ARE GOING TO JAIL!

WHAT HAPPENED TO YOU
WAS TERRIBLE.

IT DIDN'T HAPPEN
TO HER, THOUGH.

WHY IS HER BLOUSE
OPEN?

SO HE COULD
FIX HER SHOULDER!

I TOLD YOU TO GO
TO YOUR ROOM!

Carol: WHAT BOBBY SAID
WAS TRUE!

LET'S GO IN THE BATHROOM
AND GET YOU CLEANED UP.

HE CARRIED ME
UP THE HILL.

TED TOOK
MY PAIN AWAY.

DON'T YOU TOUCH HER!

[CAROL MOANS]

GO IN THE BATHROOM.
I'LL BE THERE IN A SECOND.

I'M CALLING THE POLICE,

AND I'M TELLING THEM
EVERYTHING I JUST SAW.

WHY DON'T YOU TELL THEM
WHAT HAPPENED TO YOU?

YOU WEREN'T THERE.
YOU COULDN'T KNOW.

I--I KNOW.

I KNOW YOU DIDN'T
REALIZE THE SEMINAR

WAS GOING TO INVOLVE
LIQUOR AND SEX.

AND I KNOW YOUR SON
IS GROWING UP

WHILE YOUR MIND IS
ON OTHER THINGS.

I'M GOING TO TAKE
THAT CHILD HOME,

AND YOU BETTER NOT BE HERE
WHEN I GET BACK.

BE CAREFUL, TED.

I'LL BE FINE,
DON'T WORRY.

WHERE WILL YOU GO
TILL IT'S DARK?

AH, TO THE DINER

NEAR THE CORNER POCKET,
I GUESS.

PICK UP
MY WINNINGS LATER.

I WANT TO GO
WITH YOU.

BOBBY,
COME INSIDE, PLEASE.

DO AS SHE SAYS,
KIDDO.

[DOOR SHUTS]

[FOOTSTEPS]

Liz: AH, YES, IS THIS,
UH, HOUSITONIC 5-8-3-7?

YES, WELL, I HAVE SOME
INFORMATION FOR YOU...

ABOUT BRAUTIGAN.

YOU CAN FIND HIM AT
THE CORNER POCKET TONIGHT

IN BRIDGEPORT.

YES. NOW,
THERE'S A REWARD--

HELLO? HEL--

[SIGHS]

[HANGS UP PHONE]

BASTARDS. [SIGHS]

Man on TV:
THEN FIND THE SHERIFF

AND TELL HIM
TO BE READY FOR TROUBLE.

Second man on TV:
WHERE DO WE MEET YOU?

NEAR THE CROSSROADS
ON THE OTHER SIDE OF TOWN.

GOOD.

Woman on TV:
ROY, STOP IT.

WHAT'S IT GOING
TO BE, HONEY?

YOU'LL FIND OUT
WHEN IT'S FINISHED.

AS IF I DIDN'T KNOW.
MY FAVORITE DESSERT.

WE HAVE TO CELEBRATE
TODAY SOMEHOW.

DID YOU GET
THE MONEY ALL RIGHT?

YOU BET.
I SOLD ALL TEN.

THERE IS $1,000.

GOLD!

Ted: WHEN YOUR MOTHER
WRITES "BAD"

UNDER A MENTAL PICTURE
OF SOMEONE,

SHE WRITES IT IN INK.

[CASH REGISTER RINGS]

I MEAN, I KNEW THAT,

BUT I DIDN'T THINK
SHE'D BETRAY ME.

SEE, I NEED
THE MONEY TO SURVIVE,

AND I...CAN'T GO BACK
TO THE CORNER POCKET.

AND I NEED TIME
TO THINK, AND, UH...

THERE ISN'T ANY.

[COUGHS]

HERE'S WHAT YOU DO.

WRITE A NOTE FOR ME.

A NOTE?

YEAH.
TO THE CORNER POCKET.

I'LL GET YOU
YOUR MONEY.

I'M NOT SURE THIS
IS A GOOD IDEA, BOBBY.

TED, TAKE MY HANDS.

HUH?

DON'T WORRY.

I WON'T LET
THE BOGEYMEN GET YOU.

[CHUCKLES]

[DIAL TONE]

[DIALS]

[LINE RINGING]

Man on phone: HELLO?

MAY I HELP YOU?

LISTEN,
THIS IS ABOUT BRAUTIGAN.

HE'S GONE.
HE TOOK THE TRAIN.

I SAW HIM GO.

STAY OUT
OF THIS, KID.

BRAUTIGAN'S
OUR BUSINESS.

DON'T HURT HIM.

PLEASE, DON'T HURT HIM.

GO HOME, BOBBY.

[LINE DISCONNECTS,
DIAL TONE]

Woman: HEY!

HEY, HONEY.

I WOULDN'T HAVE MISSED

NOT A SINGLE MINUTE!

NOT FOR
THE WHOLE WORLD, BOBBY!

TED!

TED!

TED.

WHERE ON EARTH
HAVE YOU BEEN?

I'VE BEEN WORRIED SICK
ABOUT YOU!

I'M ALL SAFE
AND SOUND.

DO YOU HAVE ANY IDEA

WHAT YOU JUST
PUT ME THROUGH?

I DIDN'T KNOW
WHERE YOU WERE.

YOU ONLY THINK
ABOUT YOURSELF!

[SIGHS]

BOBBY.
TED'S GONE.

I'LL NEVER
SEE HIM AGAIN.

SO YOU GOT EVERYTHING
YOU WANTED. HAPPY NOW?

BOBBY, THERE'S NO MONEY.
I DON'T HAVE A JOB.

THERE'S PLENTY
OF MONEY NOW!

SEE HOW GREAT
IT WORKED OUT,

TURNING HIM IN?

I DID--I DID IT FOR YOU.
IT WAS FOR YOUR OWN GOOD.

YOU LIE!
YOU ALWAYS LIE.

[CRYING] MY FATHER
WAS A GOOD MAN,

AND PEOPLE
LIKED HIM.

[SIGHS]

EVERYONE LIKED HIM
EXCEPT YOU.

YOU NEVER LIKED ME,
EITHER.

AND THEN
I FIND A FRIEND,

A GROWN-UP FRIEND
OF MY OWN,

AND YOU KNOW WHAT?
I LOVED HIM.

YOU DIDN'T
JUST BETRAY HIM.

YOU BETRAYED
BOTH OF US.

[GASPS]

BOBBY...

[WATER TRICKLING]

Bobby: TED GOT IT RIGHT.

IT ISN'T ALL ATLANTIS.

MY MOTHER GOT A JOB
OUTSIDE OF BOSTON,

AND I WAS UPSET,
OF COURSE.

BUT ONE THING...
I WASN'T AFRAID.

I HAD TED
TO THANK FOR THAT.

HEY, GET OUT OF HERE.
THIS IS MY PLACE NOW.

YOU CAN'T DO THAT.
THIS IS EVERYBODY'S PARK.

YES, I CAN.

LITTLE BOBBY GARFIELD.

WHERE'S YOUR FAIRY GODFATHER
NOW WHEN YOU NEED HIM?

OHH!

OHH!

NOT THAT
I DIDN'T THINK OF HIM.

I ALWAYS HAVE...

ALWAYS WILL.

BECAUSE THAT SUMMER...

WAS THE LAST
OF MY CHILDHOOD.

AND THOUGH
I NEVER AGAIN SAW

WHAT PEOPLE WERE THINKING,

THERE WAS AN ENDURING GIFT

THAT HE LEFT ME.

WHAT TED DID WAS...

OPEN MY EYES...

AND LET THE FUTURE IN.

I WOULDN'T HAVE MISSED
A MINUTE OF IT.

NOT FOR ALL THE WORLD.
