All language subtitles for Early Edition s03e14 Just One Of Those Things

Oh, morning, Gary. In a hurry?

Oh, well, I've got this... Thing.

Right. Like yesterday's thing?

Not exactly.

A bigger thing?

Oh, yes, it's a much bigger thing.

Oh, I'm sorry.

Hey, thanks for clearing that up. You
have a good thing, all right?

Right.

He amputates own limb.

Excuse me, but it's a medical emergency.
Sir, you can't go back there.

Skateboarding and no rope.

Sir, can I help you?

I'm just looking for... Doctor?

Excuse me, good luck.

I'm looking for... Sir, I'm going to...
Hunt Riley!

Todd!

Hey!

What's the problem, dude? What do you
think you're doing, kid? You want to be

called Stumpy the rest of your life?

Stumpy? That'd be cool.

Todd Reilly, what are you thinking?

He's just trying to speed things up. I
don't believe him.

Hey, hey, hey.

Thanks.

That could have been my entire practice
down the tubes.

But how did you know?

Oh, I was at the dentist's office next
door. Dr. Leonard?

Dr. Leonard, who was doing some bridge
work for me.

And he told you there was a kid in my
office about to cut off his own arm?

Well, there were some kids in the
waiting room, and they were talking

crazy Todd Riley. He had broken his arm.
He had a cast on it.

You're looking kind of pale there,
aren't you?

Are you all right?

Oh, yes, yes.

It's all right.

Thanks.

What if you knew, beyond a doubt, what
was going to happen tomorrow?

What would you do?

There is no easy answer for a guy who
gets tomorrow's news today.

describe this pain as as a ice pick in
my stomach.

And you've had it for several weeks?

Well,

it comes and goes.

Look, Doc, you know, I shouldn't have
taken up your time. No, no, forget about

it. You did me a huge favor.

I'm going to recommend a series of
tests, but my preliminary examination

indicates you're in perfect health.

Well, now, It must have been something I
ate, then.

No, could be.

Well, we could be talking about
something psychological.

Psychological? Well, millions of people
suffer from stress -induced ailments.

No offense, but you seem rather tightly
wound to me.

What do you do for a living, Gary?

Well, I run.

I run a bar.

Everything's all right? You're not under
any kind of financial duress?

No, no, we keep our heads above the
water. What about lifestyle?

Is there anything in your daily routine
that might cause you undue anxiety?

No, no, nothing I can... Oh, good
morning, Gary. In a hurry?

Oh, well, I've got this... Thing.

Right. Like yesterday's thing. Not
exactly.

There is one thing.

My working conditions, they...

They're such that sometimes I have to...
to lie.

What were you doing?

I'll tell you what I was doing. I happen
to have a friend who's a food

distributor, a seafood distributor, and
he thought he delivered some bad food to

Giancarlo. So as a friend, I said, I
will go and I will explain this to

Giancarlo for you. That is the stupidest
thing I've ever heard.

You see, occasionally,

I have to lie to my employees.

You have to lie because of your working
conditions?

Sounds to me like that could be the
source of your stress right there.

You think so, huh?

You know, I'm going to recommend a
colleague.

He's a very good psychologist who
specializes in stress management issues.

psychologist? Well, I really don't think
I need a psychologist. As a matter of

fact, Doc, I think I'm feeling a lot
better right now. Gary, a pain like

it's a warning.

You don't want to ignore it forever.

My advice?

Tell the truth.

You'll live a lot longer.

Gary, I thought you'd be here an hour
ago. The insurance guy was here and we

needed your signature. Oh, well, I'm
sorry. I got stuck in traffic. There was

parade. Great.

What parade?

Oh, a winter solstice parade.

What?

I'm sorry, but I've got to... Are you
feeling all right?

Oh, yes, I'm absolutely fine.

Hey,

Gary, what's the matter?

Oh, nothing. I'm absolutely fine. Are
you sure?

Oh, yes, just my stomach. I'm going to
go lay down.

What is it? My herbalist recommends it.

Guaranteed to settle your stomach.

What's in it?

Soda water, milk of magnesia, a touch of
lemon juice, vanilla for flavoring.

What else?

Oh, and a teaspoon of ground beetle
extract.

I should go.

What is wrong with that kid?

Forget about Patrick. What about a
doctor?

Oh, yeah. I already saw a doctor this
morning.

And? Well, he said that it's all in my
head that I need to change my lifestyle.

Change your lifestyle?

Yeah, he said that I need to reduce my
stress a little bit.

Stress? Well, you know, I need to stop
lying all the time.

Stop lying all the time to certain
people.

Oh, I get it. Like the winter solstice
parade stress.

You heard that, huh?

Gary, I think this doctor's on to
something.

It's pretty obvious what you have to do.

Yes.

What is it I have to do?

Tell Erica about the paper.

What, are you crazy? I can't do that.
Why not?

Because that's not something you can
take back. I mean, that's something,

it's out there, it's out there.

Gary, what are you so afraid of? Look,
I'm not afraid of anything. It's just

that the paper is going to stay a
secret, do you understand?

Okay, but guess what?

I know the secret.

Chuck knows the secret. Your mom, your
dad, even Henry knows the secret. I

Erica should know, don't you think?

Maybe it's time.

No, I don't think.

Gary, take a look at yourself. You can
barely get out of bed. The doctor was

right. There needs to be some changes.

It's just a stomachache.

For now.

There you go, Mr. Hopson. Thanks.

Hey.

There's no beetle dust in here.

Insect free.

Excuse me.

Good morning.

Hey, how are you feeling?

I'm just great.

Your stomach?

It's fine.

Which one?

Well, Gary's got a little tummy ache.

It's nothing, really.

Well, we're still on for tonight, right?

Huh? You know, high noon at the Rialto,
remember?

Gary Cooper, Grace Kelly, lots of
clocks.

Oh, right.

Yes, I'll be here.

Oh, you have to leave it, Seth.

And I'll, uh, I will be here.

What's up with him?

No idea.

McGinty's. I was just checking in.
Anything going on there?

Oh, nothing we can't handle.

Here, you got to make it back in time
for that movie, because I think Erica's

got a little pool going.

A pool?

Yeah, she's giving three to one odds
that you won't make it.

Well, I'll be there.

I just got another stop to make. I'll be
done in a few minutes.

You tell her I'll be back by six. No
later, all right?

Okay. Bye.

The best days believe the fire was
started by a faulty fuse box in the

Basement.

In the basement.

Excuse me.

Thank you.

Hey, Erica?

You know, I know there's got to be a
good reason for it. You know, you've got

stop making excuses for him. I mean, if
you wanted to be here, you'd just be

here.

Erica?

I really...

Sorry. I know it looks bad, but I
meant... What is that smell?

Is the sewer back up again?

What, another parade?

Oh, no, no, no.

I ran into an old friend of mine. His
car broke down.

And your dog ate it. I don't care, Gary.

Oh, I swear, I had every intention.

Gary? What is it, Gary?

It's not it.

It's not that bad. You can't even taste
the beetles.

Gary, you have to call a doctor. No.

That's twice in two days. You can't keep
passing out. Don't worry about it. I'm

doing something about it. Really? What?

Drastic measures.

Emergency room?

No, not the emergency room.

Tomorrow morning, the first thing, I'm
going to go downstairs and I'm going to

tell her.

Really?

Oh, you'll see.

I suppose you already know this, but
today is the day.

And when I'm done here, I'm going to go
downstairs and I'm going to tell her

everything. So if you have any problems
with that, any reasons why I shouldn't

tell her what I'm about to tell her, you
should speak up now.

Anything at all?

All right, then that settles it.

I'm telling her.

Yeah, that's what I'll do.

Hey, how you feeling?

Much better, thank you.

Listen, have you got a minute?

No, about last night.

Look, you don't have to apologize.

No, but I need to explain.

There's nothing to explain. Yes, there
is. Gary, I should have known better by

now. And that's why I need to explain.
Gary, please, okay? Stop. Not necessary.

I've figured it out.

You've figured it out?

Yes, and I must admit I feel a little
stupid, but I should have realized this

long time ago.

Someone told you, didn't they?

No.

You owe more credit than that. Nobody
needs to tell me.

You mean you figured this all out by
yourself and you didn't talk to Henry,

you? Why would I talk to Henry?

Now, Gary, I should have realized this
when I first met you. I mean, you're a

classic case.

Classic case of what?

What are we talking about?

You tell me.

Fear of commitment.

You try and deny it.

You mean you're telling me that you
realize that I have a classic case of

of commitment?

Tell me I'm wrong.

You're wrong.

Oh, come on, Gary.

I mean, look at you.

You're terrified of anything that even
sounds like a relationship.

I mean, forget about committing to any
one person. I can't get you to commit to

two hours in a movie theater.

Do you realize how many dates you've
missed in the last month?

And I know we're not supposed to call
them dates, but let's just be honest

That's what they were. And you didn't
make a single one.

Now... I realize that I might be too
persistent and slow to take a hint, and

don't know when to give up, but you, my
friend, and don't go breaking out in

hives because I called you friend, but
you have intimacy problems of global

proportions, and you're going to stand
there and tell me that you don't have a

fear of commitment.

See, I don't have a fear of commitment.

Then what is it?

Well, Erica, sit down, please.

Just sit down, please.

What? I just want to make sure that you
hear what I'm going to tell

you. I'm ready.

You know how I always... I'm acting
strange all the time.

Well, that's because... You see, I
get... Yes?

I get tomorrow's newspaper.

Today.

That's why I'm always running all
around.

I mean, I'm out there preventing
disasters.

I'm out there saving people's lives.

And that's who I am. That's what I do,
you see.

I thought it was...

What's so funny?

No, I'm serious.

Oh, Gary.

You can stop now.

Gary,

just help me. Excuse us.

What?

Would you mind keeping this to yourself?

It's going to be a little difficult.

That's not funny.

Good morning, Marissa.

What are you doing here, Patrick? It's
your day off, isn't it? Hey, I missed

you. Ah, you wanted to check, right?
Yeah, that's it.

So, what are you doing today?

Apartment hunting.

You're moving out of the Fred house?

Yeah, it turns out there's this bylaw
about members living in a house longer

than eight years. It's frowned upon by
the national chapter.

Any leads on apartment?

Nope, but today is my lucky day. I can
feel it.

Thank you very much. I'll see you
tomorrow.

Good luck, Patrick. Bye.

And I know that it's hard to believe. I
can barely believe it myself sometimes.

But if you could just take me seriously
for one minute here.

I'll try.

Good. Because I happen to get this paper
every morning on my doorstep. Only it's

no regular paper. Oh, no. This happens
to be tomorrow's paper. Do you

that? Yeah, I understand.

You do?

Yeah, because actually just a couple of
years ago, I used to get tomorrow's CNN

headlines in a filling in my molar. So I
don't know what it's like. But

unfortunately, I lost that tooth in a
bike accident. Yeah, yeah, yeah. I'll

you what. How about I show you the
paper? Will that convince you?

Gosh, Gary, I guess it happened. Well,
gosh, hear it. Gosh, hear it.

My paper.

No, no, I have my... The bar.

It's... Stay here.

Excuse me.

I just have to show her the paper. I
should have done that in the first

There. You believe me now?

Wow. Exactly.

Do you know what this means?

That's what I've been trying to tell
you. I get tomorrow's newspaper, too.

Only I get it a day late.

You what?

I don't get it.

Fear of commitment.

This isn't my paper.

Hey, Gary, a phone call for you. I'm
busy. It's a psychologist. He says he

your number from a Dr. Futterman.

Psychologist?

I think you should take that.

You... But you... What?

Well, how could it have just
disappeared?

Where did you last see it?

I came downstairs, and then I came into
the barn. And then I went into the

office, so I must have left it in the
barn.

You didn't move anything, did you?
Nothing.

Well, did anyone else come in here?

Um, Patrick.

Patrick? He came to get his check, and
he left.

Where'd he go?

He said he was going to spend the day
looking for an apartment.

If he comes back, you tell him to stay
here.

Okay, what about Erica?

What about Erica?

Do you want me to talk to her for you?
No, I'm taking care of everything.

All right.

I'll tell you what.

If the doctor should call back, I
suppose you could take his number for

Good thinking.

Can I help you? Yeah, I'm here about the
apartment.

What apartment?

This one. I was interested in renting
it.

But I live here.

Yeah, but it says right there that...
They screwed it up.

Uncle Vic? They weren't supposed to run
until tomorrow.

I was going to tell you.

What? You're kicking me out of this
place?

Oh, listen, I've got other permits that
I can look at. No, you stay.

You look like a nice kid. You look
clean.

I'm clean?

Why don't you have a look around?

Well, go on.

Check out the floors. They're hardwood.

But I love this place.

I can't take it anymore, Marvin.

Ever since your girlfriend left you, you
let this place go to hell.

I'll hire a cleaning service.

It's not just that. It's everything.

It's the crying, Marvin. The weeping
into all hours of the night.

The music at 3 a .m. The Harry Chapin
albums over and over again.

He has a very comforting voice.

Look, kid, I love you, but I can't live
next to you anymore. You're out.

Well, what do you think?

Oh, well, it's a great place.

$5 .50 a month sound fair?

Uh, yeah, but I don't want to kick
anybody out.

You're not kicking anybody out. I am.

Listen, if you don't take the place,
somebody else will.

In either case, he's history.

Consider this 30 days notice.

I want you and Mr. Katz in a cradle out
of here by the end of the month.

I'll start looking for a new place after
work. I'll make some calls for you.

Here, you take this, fill it out, slip
it under my door. If your references

check out, the place is yours.

Welcome home.

You heard anything from Patrick?

I left two messages, and his roommate
said he'd be out all day.

That's true.

Easy there, tough guy.

I'm looking for Patrick.

And you need him because... Yeah, you
know why I need him.

Tell me again, Gary. I like hearing it.

Gary, it's a landlord checking on
Patrick's references. He says he was

this morning.

Huh?

Why does that have to happen?

Why wouldn't you use the crosswalk?

Sweet roll.

Over here.

Ouch. You got a couple of Rudolphs on
you.

Uh, what's that?

Your ears. They're so red. Do they hurt?

Oh, yeah, they're gonna when they thaw.

You know, they invented these things.

They go on your head. They're called
half.

Check them out.

Oh, look at that.

All hats 50 % off. I don't believe it.
Is this my lucky day or what?

He's got problems.

We've all got problems.

Not like his.

I mean, I understand if he's not
interested, that's okay. I'm a big girl

can take it. But the excuses he comes up
with.

Getting tomorrow's newspaper today.

It's true.

He does.

You know what, Marcia? You're a really
good friend to Gary. And he's lucky to

have you. But don't you see what you're
doing?

What am I doing?

Well, it's one thing to tolerate your
friend's superhero delusions, but you

don't have to sew him a cape. Tell me
something, Erica. Have you talked to

about any of this?

Henry knows about Gary's magic paper.

Ask him.

These crampons are titanium alloy.

The best.

Use these for your glacier climbs, your
frozen waterfall climbs.

I used a pair when I climbed El Cap.

You climbed El Cap at 10?

Oh, yeah, a couple years ago.

Yes, but they're supposed to be on sale.
All hats, 50 % off.

Where did you hear this?

Oh, it's in the paper.

Marvin.

Marvin? Uh, yes.

Uh, excuse me.

Is there a problem, Mr. Bowers?

Oh, yeah, you again. How you doing? Uh,
just getting a hat.

That's a nice one, real rayon.

You ran the ad a day early.

No, I told him to hold it. Oh, really?

Unless it's right here.

I try and give you a little bit of
responsibility, and you just can't

can you? No, Mr. Bowers, I... That's it,
Marvin.

Clean out your locker.

I don't have a locker.

Well, then, take off your vest.

Sorry. Yeah, yeah, yeah.

Sorry.

Well, can you tell me how long ago he
left?

I don't know, maybe an hour.

Well, do you know which way he went?

What do I look like, the neighborhood
watch?

Well, could you give me a hint? Did he
go east or did he go west? Who are you

looking for?

A fellow named Patrick Quinn. He's about
so tall, he's... The guy who rented my

apartment. Yes, yes.

I just saw him down at Switzer's
Sporting Goods store. He got me fired.

Nice guy, though. Bought me this hat.

Can you tell me where Switzer's is?

Lake and Dearborn.

Hey, this Quinn kid, is he clean?

Is he clean?

Ma 'am.

Excuse me. I think that you should use
the crosswalk. You what?

This is a very dangerous street. Just
yesterday, right here, a woman much like

yourself was hit by a bus.

It's like that one.

The crosswalk.

It's there for your safety.

Crossed at the green.

Not in between.

Thank you.

Hey, Marissa.

Hey, Henry, what's up?

What's going on with my mom?

What do you mean?

I mean, she asked me if Gary gets
tomorrow's paper today.

And did you tell her?

No way. She's not getting anything out
of me.

I said I didn't know anything about it.

Um, Henry, why didn't you tell your
mother the truth?

Because Gary said I couldn't tell
anybody, ever.

Oh, boy.

Patrick! Wait up!

You got my paper!

Hey!

Patrick!

Oh, I'm sorry. I didn't see someone
else.

Mr. Hudson!

Patrick!

Where is... What? Where's my paper?
Where's my paper? I don't have your

Yes, you do. You left McGinty's. You
took my paper. Oh, no, no, no. That was

paper. No, no. You switched the paper.
It's fine, Patrick.

Patrick, where's your paper? Oh, that
was your paper next to my paper at the

bar? Yes. Where is it? I threw it out.

You what?

Well, I know. I should recycle.

Patrick, where is it?

Well, Mr. Alton, you really care about
your newspaper.

Where's my paper?

In an alley. In a dumpster.

Show me. Show me.

Hurry up, run!

I'm running! I'm running!

Come on, move it!

Two years later, I'm still chasing
garbage trucks.

You've done this before?

Come on, buddy, you know I don't have
time for this. Okay, just another

okay? What did he lose anyway?

His newspaper.

What? I pulled over for some guy's
newspaper?

Did I say newspaper? No, no, I meant his
engagement ring.

He lost the ring.

Yeah, it was an accident. He, uh, you
know, he had the ring in his pocket, and

then he washed his pants, and it fell
into the lint filter, and then he

the lint filter.

It happens all the time.

He was nervous. He was going to propose
tonight.

On it!

You said he threw out a ring.

Well, see, he had the ring in the
newspaper so he could keep it fresh.

Ah, you're both nuts.

All right, listen, I got to get going
now. Where?

I got to go over to Draper Street and
find a refrigerator.

Okay, what should I do?

Well, go back to work, Patrick. Right,
got it.

Mr. Hobson, it's my day off.

Mr.

Hey, Patrick.

Like any messages?

Well, Gary's been moving all over for
you.

Oh, Mr. Hobson, yeah, I just saw him
downstairs.

What was he doing?

Dumpster diving.

Dumpster diving?

Yeah, he lost his paper. Oh, okay, it
was my fault. I threw it out. Anyway, he

went diving in his garbage truck after
it.

To get his newspaper?

Yeah. Guess he didn't want to pony up
another 35 cents.

You gotta respect that.

So, uh, where's Gary now, Patrick?

Oh, I don't know.

Um... Oh, he mentioned something about
going down to find a refrigerator on

Draper Street, I think. I don't know. I
couldn't really follow it. You know how

Mr. Hobson is. He's thinking on a level
so far above the rest of us, you know?

You're Rebecca's mother? Have you seen
her?

The refrigerator.

What? Were there some refrigerators out
here?

I just picked them up.

A too old friend.

Oh, come on, come on. This time.

Expresso.

Expresso. Hey, stop that truck!

Hey!

Stop that truck!

Stop that truck!

Please! Somebody come out! Stop the
truck! Stop it now!

Hey!

Stop that truck!

Yeah, well...

Yeah,

you got a problem with that

There you go, buddy. Rebecca!

What's going on?

Rebecca?

What are you doing?

What are you looking for?

That's not a girl.

Jim. Oh, my God.

Is she all right? Rebecca.

We didn't know. We didn't hear anything.

Rebecca.

Is she okay?

Rebecca.

Rebecca.

Come on.

You're going to be all right.

I got you. Unbelievable.

I got you. You okay?

Is that

your

baby?

She's okay.

Save that girl's life.

I did?

So you stopped the truck, didn't you?

Yeah, I guess I did.

I did that.

Marvin?

Oh, Marvin Erickson?

Yeah. Karen Stewart.

Evanston, hi. We were on yearbook
together.

Yeah, you were the editor.

Assistant editor.

Yeah, assistant.

That was incredible, the way you stopped
that truck. It was... That little girl

was in trouble.

But how did you know she was... I... I'm
kind of hungry. Would you

like to get an early dinner?

I could eat.

That was just great.

I can't believe it. Watch your step.

What are you up to? I work for the Sun
-Times. News photographer.

Hey.

Hey.

How's your stomach?

Better.

I don't know what I did this afternoon,
but I feel much better.

Gary, I want to... Listen, you know, I
know I was acting a little strange

earlier.

Well, I'd like to apologize.

And I thought that maybe we could forget
about everything that happened this

morning.

I don't think so.

Oh, well, huh?

I think this is yours.

You want to tell me about it?

It was about two and a half years ago.
At the time, my marriage was pretty much

on a bus. And I was living in a hotel.

Anyway, one morning about 6 .30, I woke
up to the sound of a cat meowing outside

my door. I opened the door, and there it
is. The new spider.

And the cat.

And, well, it took me most of the first
day to figure out that this wasn't a

regular newspaper.

I didn't think that had happened.

At the time, I was still working as a
broker.

A famous crime writer is coming to town
to collect a prestigious award, but

there'll be more than just champagne in
his glass at the party.

Murder Mystery in the courtroom next on
Hallmark with Perry Mason and the case

of the poisoned pen.
