Jonathan.

Jonathan.

Jonathan.

Jonathan.

Mark, turn around.

Jonathan, I know you don't trust my sense of direction,

but our assignment is this way.

Doesn't have anything to do with our assignment.

MARK: What's wrong?

You all right?

It's my wife, Jane, she's calling.

What is it?

What's wrong?

She's dying.

Are you sure there is something?

Oh, there's more than something.

There is everything in heaven.

And Arthur?

Will I see my Arthur again?

Yes.

[music playing]

She's gone.

I'm sorry.

I just wish my daughter and the kids

could have gotten here in time.

Yeah.

How you feeling?

I'm fine.

She's waiting for me now.

He'll be taking me back soon.

What-- you-- you-- you mean the Boss?

Yeah.

He wouldn't keep me down here now.

Not with Jane up there.

I'm going to be able to hold her again soon.

Jonathan, what is it?

What's wrong?

He said I can't go.

That I'm needed here.

I have an assignment.

Well, I won't.

Do you hear me?

I won't!

[thunder]

Damn it!

I won't!

[thunder]

40 years!

I did my best for 40 years waiting

for the day he took my Jane.

And now, he's just like, I can't go.

No more.

No more!

Damn it!

I'm through!

Wait a minute. Jonathan.

Where you going?

Wherever the hell I want.

And I'm going to do what I want.

Now, come on.

Don't talk like this, will you, Jonathan?

No!

Stay away from me, Mark.

You don't want to be with me anymore.

Who are you?

My name's Jonathan.

What are you doing here?

I brought you here from the beach.

The beach?

The ocean.

Get out of here.

Now, come on.

I made you some hot tea.

Get out of here or I'll call the police.

All right, fine.

Call the police.

I'll tell them you tried to kill yourself.

Show them what's left of your pills.

They'll give you a blood test and you'll

end up in a county facility.

Now, wouldn't you rather sleep in your own bed tonight?

Hmm?

OK, now sit up and drink some of this hot tea.

You picked a lousy night for a dip.

Come on.

Jonathan.

Yeah.

Look, um--

I can't believe I'm being this, uh--

I live alone.

And you don't seem to have a place right now.

And I have a perfectly good restroom.

[laughs] Guest room.

[laughter]

I like being with you.

Well, I like being with you.

Then what do you say?

Are you sure?

Very sure.

OK.

OK.

[music playing]

OK.

Hey, you know, I was thinking, what if I made a little cart

for the pup's hind quarters?

I-- I've seen it on TV.

JENNIFER: That sounds great.

JONATHAN: And you've got to watch him all the time

in case the cart falls over.

At least she can get around.

JENNIFER: Oh, let's try it.

JONATHAN: OK.

JENNIFER: I really do feel wonderful.

JONATHAN: So do I.

[music playing]

How about, um--

no, that's no good.

Why can't we find a name for this little puppy?

What's the matter?

Hmm? Oh, nothing.

Nothing.

I was thinking, we gotta find a name for that dog.

Can't keep calling her you.

Wait a minute.

Why not?

Why not what?

Why not call her you?

I mean, you know like, I'm not like you, Y-O-U.

But like the animal ewe, E-W-E. Look at her.

She's soft and cuddly like a little lamb.

What do you think?

Hey, Ewe.

[whimpering]

[laughter]

Hey, why not?

She likes it.

I like it.

From now on, you are Ewe.

[whimpering]

[music playing]

[sighs] First time in 40 years, you're mortal and you

can sleep, but you can't sleep.

Come on you know why.

It's her.

It's Jennifer.

What is it about her?

Oh, wait a minute.

Wait a minute.

Now I get.

Make me mortal, give me a few feelings

and give me a little guilt over those feelings.

Well, whose fault is it anyway?

Huh?

Fine, give me the silent treatment.

That's fine with me.

I do the best I can for you for 40 years and I

ask you for one thing--

one thing.

You know, a guy's with a company for 40 years,

at least they give him a gold watch.

You know what I mean?

[knocking]

Yeah.

Are you all right?

I heard voices.

Oh.

Yeah.

Yeah, I'm fine.

It wasn't voices, it was a voice.

I have a tendency to talk to myself sometimes.

But don't worry.

I never argue.

Can't you sleep?

No.

No, maybe I'm not used to the ocean.

Well, here, let me rub your shoulders.

- Oh, no, no. - It'll relax you.

- It's OK. - Come on.

Don't be stubborn.

Turner over here.

All right.

Tell me if it's too hard.

Nah, it's great.

My wife used to rub my back like this

when I'd come home from work.

Oh?

You remind me a great deal of her.

[sighs] She was so lovely, so kind.

And I miss her so.

Hey, listen, you don't have to hear me rattling

on at 3 o'clock in the morning.

Hey, we're friends.

Remember?

Yeah.

We're friends.

Would you like to hold me?

Yes, I would.

[music playing]

But you feel guilty?

Oh, do I ever.

My life has changed so much in these last few days.

I was so filled with anger.

And then I met you and I felt love again.

And I know it's wrong.

Jonathan, you loved your wife very much.

And you always will.

But no one can stop the need to feel love, to love others,

to be held and to hold.

There's a great deal of love in your soul, Jonathan.

Don't let anger or guilt push that aside.

[music playing]

[whimpering]

[scratching]

She needs to go out and potty.

Yeah.

[sings] You, you're driving me crazy.

What did I do?

Ah.

There you go, Ewe.

[whimpering]

[music playing]

Jane, I don't even know if he'd let you hear me.

You remember our last night together sitting on those rocks

by the fire?

Oh, how I wanted to tell you who I was--

who I really was.

But I couldn't.

I couldn't.

Are you warm enough?

Yes.

If I tell you something, promise not to laugh.

Never.

Just being with you these last few days has made--

Go on, please.

Has made me feel young again.

It's almost like being with Arthur.

Can you understand that?

Very well.

You see, years ago, I was very, very much in love with a woman.

And you remind me so much of her.

I'll never forget you, Jane Thompson.

Nor I you, Jonathan Smith.

[music playing]

Jane, if you can hear me, please understand.

I have met someone.

She reminds me so very, very much of you.

And I need to feel love inside me again.

Please, try to understand.

Please.

[whimpering]

Come on.

[music playing]

[music playing]

Good morning.

Good morning.

Oh, I feel so cozy this morning.

What are you doing up so early?

Well, being as if I'm going to live here,

I'm going to pay my own way.

I'm going out to get a job.

Oh, not right away.

I told you.

I am not going to have you supporting me.

Understand?

You're so old fashioned.

Very.

Now, give me a kiss and wish me luck.

Sure you have to go right this minute?

I'm very sure.

I love you.

I love you.

[music playing]

I better get out of here now.

Jonathan?

JONATHAN: Yeah.

No luck?

No luck is putting it mildly.

You know, I can't believe it.

You know, I thought going out, finding a good job

was going to be a snap.

Oh, no way.

Everybody says the same thing.

You have to have references.

Well, you have them.

You said you were with the same company for over 40 years,

certainly, your old boss would give you one.

No, he wouldn't.

Did you ask him?

No.

Why not?

Because we're not speaking, that's why.

Well, I think you're being stubborn.

All right, I'm being stubborn.

But I'm not going to talk to him.

Now just forget about it.

I'm sorry.

I had a bad day.

Well, hey, it's your first day.

You'll find a job.

No, it's not that.

What is it then?

Nothing.

It has to do with your boss doesn't it?

What makes you say that?

The way you acted when I asked you to talk to him.

You two were pretty close, weren't you.

I thought we were.

The argument between the two of you,

is there a possibility you were wrong?

No.

No, what he did was wrong.

You're sure?

I am positive.

Someone wrote-- oh, I think it was Ambrose Bierce--

that the definition of positive is

wrong at the top of your voice.

You know, it's very difficult to stay

in a bad mood around you.

Well, think about talking to your boss again.

Just think about it, OK?

OK, I'll think about it.

Good.

Now, let's go out to dinner.

Oh, no.

No, I'm not going to have you spending a bunch of your money

taking me out to dinner.

I have no intention of spending a bunch of my money.

I have a taste for a messy, gooey cheeseburger.

And I know just the place to go.

Now, do I have to go alone?

[music playing]

[chatter]

They're great, aren't they?

Mm-hmm.

I can't tell you how long it's been since I had one of these.

Well, if they don't drip, they're not worth eating.

These are definitely worth eating then.

You know, It's funny how everything seems OK when

you're with someone you love.

[applause]

I want to ask him to play something.

That song.

"Clair de Lune", it's always been my favorite.

What's wrong?

Oh, nothing.

It's-- that was my wife's favorite.

It's the only song I knew how to play.

I memorized when I was a kid.

Small world.

Small and wonderful.

So are the burgers.

Mm.

I guess you like Tom Jones, too?

[laughter]

Mm-hmm.

Hey, Gordon.

Oh, yes, Mr. Carver?

You know what time it is?

Uh, no I don't.

My watch busted.

Oh, well, look at the time.

Why?

It can't be working either.

Of course it's working.

Then why are you asking me what time it is?

Ah, can the smart talk, Gordon.

This is the third time you've been late since you started.

Really?

How late?

You were 10 minutes late on the third.

Six minutes late on the ninth.

And--

And five minutes late this morning,

which is a grand total of 21 minutes, right?

Right.

So I tell you what I'll do.

I'll in 21 minutes early tomorrow morning, will be even.

CARVER: You're not funny.

If you don't like this job, why don't you say so?

I don't like this job.

Then why don't you quit?

Hey, that's a good question.

That'll give me something to think about while I'm working.

[air horn]

[coughs] Oh, look at the dust in this place.

We got to put it on TV.

Freight cars can be hazardous to your health.

It wouldn't do any good.

They'd just come out with an extra long freight car.

What's in these things anyhow?

JIM: I don't know.

Plastic something.

At least it's a light load.

Hey, don't do that.

Carver will have an attack.

Who cares?

Hey, look.

They're bubble makers.

Make a whole lot of bubbles at the same time.

Hey, I got an idea.

Why don't we see how many bubbles we can

make before the breaks over?

Look, I don't know.

Come on.

It'll be a hoot.

Oh, what the heck.

[laughter]

[music playing]

What the hell are you doing?

Making bubbles.

You know, you can get fired for this?

Oh, come on. I opened box.

I mean, I'll pay for it.

CARVER: Suppose every guy in here opens a box.

What do you think we'd have?

Oh, a lot of bubbles.

Gordon, you're fired!

Now you're talking.

You can pick up your check tomorrow.

Hey, don't forget to take off for the bubble makers.

Hey, buddy, I'm sorry.

Hey, don't be.

Take care of yourself, Jimbo.

Hey, Mark.

What are you going to do?

What I should have been doing the whole time.

Trying to help people.

[music playing]

[music playing]

How you doing, buddy?

Mark.

Wowee!

I was about to give up on you paying us a visit.

Well, I been sorting things out.

It's a little more than a visit.

I was wondering, is that job still open?

Is it still open? You bet it's open.

Sure.

Listen, I've been a pain in the butt

for the past few weeks.

I'm ready to go back to work now.

That's good.

Have you heard from Jonathan?

No.

No.

I don't expect to either.

And Caz, I need to feel needed.

Well, Mark, let's see if we can do something about that.

Come on.

OK, listen to my hands under the basket.

Shoot it straight up.

And there we go.

There we go!

[cheering]

[whistling]

Listen up.

Listen up.

Listen up now.

We got a friend of the Junior Blind.

And he's back here with us.

But he probably thinks we don't remember him.

So how about a big welcome for the bear, Mark Gordon.

[cheering]

[applause]

[chatter]

Boy, this is great.

I tried everything.

Blood worm, sand crabs, mussels.

Anybody hungry out there?

i don't believe it.

Not only can't I get a job, I can't even catch a fish.

Really useless, you know that?

How long you been standing there?

Long enough.

Well, I told you I talk to myself.

Yeah, but you said you didn't argue.

That wasn't an argument.

It was a discussion.

Now give me a kiss and let me get back to fishing.

Can I ask how long the old man and the sea

are going to be out here?

As long as it takes.

I'm going to get you the fish for dinner.

Yeah, but you said that six hours ago.

Don't you think it's about time to give up?

No, I don't think it's time I gave up.

I want to show you I can put some food on the table.

Look, if I can't be the breadwinner, at least I'm

going to be the fish winner.

All right?

Now go on inside and let me catch your fish, Madam.

Aye, aye, Sir.

But I think you need a miracle.

I think you better ask God for some help.

Yeah.

Yeah, I'm sure he is interested in what I have to say.

Ewe gets her cast off tomorrow.

I can't believe how fast these last two months have flown by.

I know.

What are you thinking about, oh provider of wonderful fish.

Hmm?

You're miles away.

I'm sorry.

What were you thinking about?

I was just wondering how long we were gonna be together.

Forever seems about right to me.

Well, there's no such thing.

I think there is.

Don't you believe in God?

I know there is a God, if that's what you mean.

Do you talk to him?

I used too.

But not anymore.

No, it was a waste of time.

You don't really mean that.

How do you know?

Because I think I know you, and me and lots of people.

When we feel sorry for ourselves or can't understand why

things happen, we blame him.

It's only when we open ourselves up to him

that we can feel whole again.

All the pain and the anger go away.

I prayed to him that we would be together forever.

Well, I hope he heard you.

Might help if he heard from both of us.

I'll go make us some coffee.

[music playing]

Forgive me, Father.

Forgive me.

[music playing]

[music playing]

So soon?

Must it be so soon?

[barking]

JONATHAN: Come on, Ewe.

Come on, girl.

Come on.

That's it.

Look at that.

Look at-- whoa!

Look at you running.

Hey, did you see her run?

Well, a couple of weeks to get that bandage off,

she'll be good as new.

Huh, won't you, girl?

Huh?

What's wrong?

Nothing.

I was just looking at you.

What you want to do today?

Be with you.

Me too.

But I have some errands I have to run.

I'll go with you.

No.

You stay here with Ewe and relax.

Besides, I want to stop at the grocery store

and pick up a few things for dinner.

And I don't want you to be there.

It's going to be a surprise.

Oh, wait.

Now let me see--

No 20 questions.

It's a surprise.

I won't be long.

Hey, drive careful.

I will.

All right, come on, Ewe.

We got to run.

You need the exercise.

JENNIFER: Mr. Gordon.

You are Mark Gordon?

Yeah.

My name is Jennifer Sims.

Could we talk for a few minutes?

Well, I'm afraid you caught me at a bad time.

It's about Jonathan.

Hey, boss. Take the kids inside, will you?

I'll be in there in a minute.

What about Jonathan?

He's doing fine.

He's been staying at my place for the last two months.

What's he been doing?

Getting rid of his anger.

I think he's ready to go back on assignment.

He told you?

No.

But I know.

How?

Who are you?

It's all in this letter I've written to Jonathan.

Would you please give it to him when you see him?

He'll be at the little market across from westward beach.

Do you know where that is?

Yeah.

Are you sure he's going to want to see me?

Very sure.

He'll be there about 4:00.

I'll be there.

Goodbye, Mark.

Goodbye.

JONATHAN: Jen, is that you?

Yes, I'm in the kitchen.

I missed you. Come on.

Let me put that away. - No.

No.

Like I said, this is a surprise.

You go out. Go out.

Out. Out.

Read your paper. - Yes, My Dear.

Oh, dear.

How could I forget that.

JONATHAN: What?

I forgot the butter.

Could you do me a favor, run down to the market for me?

I'd be happy to go to the market for you,

if you'll tell me what we're having for dinner.

That's not fair.

You're right, I'll get the butter.

Anything else while I'm there?

No, just the butter.

Jonathan.

Yeah.

I love you.

And I love you.

Now, go on.

Start my supper.

I'm starving.

[music playing]

Jonathan.

How you doing?

[sighs] I'm doing fine.

Working up at Laurel Wood with the blind kids.

I missed you.

I missed you, too.

Hey, look, I got a lot to tell you.

Let me run in here, grab some butter

and we'll go back to the beach house.

There's somebody I want you to meet.

Jennifer?

How do you know about her?

She came to see me today.

She's the one that told me you'd be here.

She gave me this letter for you.

JENNIFER (VOICEOVER): My Dearest,

for these past few months, I have been happier than I

have been in the last 40 years.

I wish that it would never end.

But it must, My Love.

We both have highways we have to travel.

Our work is important and it must be accomplished before we

can be together again.

And though it may seem like a long time

until we meet again, remember, to God,

it is no more than the blink of an eye.

And then we'll have forever.

I love you.

Jane.

[music playing]

Jane?

Jane.

Mark, take me back to the house.

[music playing]

JENNIFER (VOICEOVER): And though it may seem like a long time

till we meet again, remember, to God,

it is no more than the blink of an eye.

And then we'll have forever.

You all right, buddy?

Yeah, I'm--

I'm fine.

We got an assignment.
