Look, Herman, if you didn't rearrange my face, that might show Ramona that

you're changing.

Are you saying that because you mean it?

So I won't hit you?

A little of each.

It'll help you and my face.

You're okay.

Let's go, buddy.

Arnold, thank goodness you're still in one piece.

I think we need to talk, Ramona.

I don't think there's anything to talk about.

I think you do, Ramona. Like you said, I am a one piece.

Well... Come on.

I'll buy you a Tommy burger.

Well, maybe we do need to talk.

Great.

I'll go over to Forrest.

Listen, Arnold.

I feel awful.

Ah, sorry. Don't worry about me.

I'm crushed.

My heart's been stepped on.

Ground into the dust of life.

But you're not the first. You certainly won't be the last.

What a man.

Man and a half.

Now the world don't move to the beat of just one drum.

What might be right for you may not be right for some.

A man is born.

He's a man of me.

Then along come two. They got nothing but the genes, but they got different

strokes to take, different strokes to think, different strokes to move the

world.

Everybody's got a special kind of story.

Everybody finds a way to shine.

It don't matter that you're gone, not alive.

Someone will have theirs and you'll have yours and I'll have mine.

And together we'll be fine. Because it takes different souls to move the world.

Yes, it does. It takes different souls to move the world.

Do you see these pictures I just printed? Now, look, Arnold, I'm very

you're learning about photography and developing your own pictures and all of

that, but you can't keep tying up the bathroom.

Thanks, you little red -headed stoolie.

Now, Dad, my pictures are already pretty good, but can you imagine what I could

do if I had a wide -angle lens?

Oh, sure. You could come up close to somebody and make them look like this.

I'm going to pay for the wide -angle lens, right?

Right. Wrong.

Oh, well, I took a shot.

Arnold.

Arnold, it's embarrassing to go to the bathroom with all those pictures staring

at me.

You know, I'm no expert, but I am impressed.

Good focus, excellent exposure, imaginative composition.

Don't stop now.

Dad, for measly $1 ,995, I can be excellent, imaginative, and compositive.

In what angle?

You save your own money and buy it for yourself. If I buy it for you, it won't

mean as much.

You're right, Dad.

But I'll make the sacrifice.

I'll tell you what. If you can raise half of it, I'll match it.

Lunch in five minutes.

Right, Dad.

Gotta get some money for my lens.

Hey, Arnold.

Just give up photography and give me back the bathroom.

Now, isn't that just like a kid? Sam, I need photography.

It's my life.

I mean, it's art.

It's something I can put my heart and my soul into.

It's a good way to make big bucks, too.

Is that all you care about?

Of course not. I'm not that shallow.

I want fame and glory, too.

editors get a look at my work, they'll be throwing lots of mean green my way.

Are you sure people would actually want to buy these pictures?

Sure, I'm sure. I took them, didn't I?

I am the greatest.

The king of the camera. The prince of photography.

The sheik of the shutter.

You're modest, too.

Your majesty.

strawberry. Sam, honey, it's time to go shopping.

Aw, Mama, can't I go shopping by myself?

Oh, but Sam, we've always gone shopping together.

I don't want to hurt your feelings, Mama, but only sissies go shopping with

their mothers.

Since when, Samuel McKinney?

Since I grew up, Mama.

Oh. Oh, I see.

Well, would it be all right if a grown -up guy took Mr. D along?

I guess so.

But he has to promise to let me pick out my own stuff.

I'm coming home if he tries to make me buy a vest.

You got a deal.

What a day.

Hey, Arnold, how many pictures did you sell?

No one in this town has...

Sam, listen.

First, I take the subway to the Time Life building.

Time says, go see Newsweek. So I take the Crosstown bus over there.

Then Newsweek says, go see Life.

So I'm back on the Crosstown bus again.

And then Life says, go see the Village Boys.

So I'm on the subway again, where some lady accidentally sticks her gum on my

forehead.

Sam, it's just so frustrating.

All those people said I had a lot of talent, but the pictures just weren't

newsworthy. Not even the one of the lady wearing underwear over her dress?

No, Sam, in New York, that's not newsworthy.

Besides, I was a man.

Anyway, they showed me photos from hot spots all over the world. That's where I

need to be to shoot.

I'd love to, but I can't wait to see Dad's face.

Dad, can I borrow the limousine to go to Zimbabwe?

I guess I don't need a wide -angle lens.

Hi, boys.

Hi, Mr. D.

Hi, Dad.

What's wrong, Arnold?

Nothing, Dad.

Nothing? He spent half the afternoon trying to sell pictures, but all he got

a head full of bubble gum.

I'll never be able to earn enough money for that lens.

I'm delighted to hear that you're trying to earn some money. Yeah, don't spread

that around.

I got an image.

Look, Arnold, freelance photography is a very hard way to earn money. Maybe I

should try to help you find a more normal job.

Normal job?

Great. I'd like to be a bank president.

I'll see what I can do.

Hello, Sam.

Hi, Mr. D.

Do you want something, Sam?

Mama's coming down in a second to ask the biggest, most gigantic favor in the

whole world for me.

It's the kind where she's going to bat her eyes and say, Philip.

Oh, Philip, darling, how much do you love me?

And then you always say, what do you want, sweet lips?

So when she asks you, whatever, please say, whatever it is, sweet lips, it's

yours.

Darling, how much do you love me?

Whatever it is, sweet lips, forget it. What?

Oh, no.

Just kidding, Sam.

Just kidding.

He's already softened me up.

What can I do for my most favorite red -headed son?

Would you mind taking Sam shopping and let him pick out his own clothes?

Yeah, Mr. D. I'm left in front of the store.

Sure, Sam. I'll take you.

Maybe we can find you a nice vest.

Mom!

Gotcha.

Oh, what a day.

Police department told me they got everybody they needed to take mug shots.

You don't have to worry about that. I have some great news for you.

Great news?

You're buying me a wide -angle lens?

Nope, but I found you a job. A job?

As in work?

Toil?

Trudgery?

No, a job as in working for a photographer on a newspaper.

Oh, wow, Dad. Oh, that's great. How did you do it? I just called up a friend of

mine on the New York Times. The New York Times?

You got me a job on the New York Times? That's unbelievable.

No, no, no, no.

The job isn't with the Times, Arnold. Oh, the Daily News.

No, not the News.

The Post?

Dad, I'm running out of papers.

I'm too young to work on a national inquiry.

You are going to be working for the West Side Weekly.

The West Side Weekly.

That's six pages.

Six pages?

Sounds to me like you're working for a pamphlet.

The West Side Weekly is a real newspaper.

It covers all the local news.

It's a very important community paper.

Well, if it's so important, Mama, how come you always toss it away?

A lot of small newspapers have done very important work.

I don't consider wrapping fish important work.

Now, look, I went to a lot of trouble to get you this job, and it's a job most

kids would be delighted to have.

Now, if you're going to pursue a career in photojournalism, you've got to start

somewhere.

Now, this way, you can gain some valuable experience and perhaps show

you can do.

You're right, Dad.

You're right.

I could show them what I can do. Matter of fact, I'm going to show them what I

can do.

With the pictures I'll be taking, the Times will be begging me to work for

The news and the Post, too.

But forget them.

I'm going right to the top.

I'm talking life.

I'm talking Playboy.

Arnold?

I'm talking life.

I ought to have enough money for that lens in no time. Way to go, son.

Your first real job.

Do you know how proud I am of you?

Thanks, Maggie, but I haven't done anything to make you proud of me yet.

But I'll change that. I'm off.

This isn't turkey.

It's pastrami.

I asked for turkey.

With turkey red with bat all around it? No, sir.

Yes, sir.

Afternoon, sir.

Got anything lined up today?

Yeah.

Major stuff.

Put that water bottle in the cooler.

Put the water bottle in the cooler.

I saw her put it in.

Hi, Mama.

Sam, honey, didn't you get the new clothes?

Couldn't find anything I liked.

Oh, well, where's Philip?

What do you think, Maggie?

Well, I thought the idea was to get some new clothes under Sam, but... But not

bad.

I tell you, Maggie, I put on this outfit and I feel like a whole new man.

Hey, guys.

How can you do that when there's cake here?

That's a great cake, Maggie.

Arnold's first paycheck. It reminds me of my first paycheck.

Mine was $37.

Mine was $1 .8 million.

Here's the working man. Yay!

How's our little breadwinner? I'll bet you're proud to have your first

huh? It's my last.

That's not a newspaper, it's a labor camp.

I thought it would change.

All that Mr. Framinguy says is, get me some more coffee, get me some water, get

me some donuts.

If I work here one more week, I'll have to join the waiters' union.

See, running errands, that's how you break in.

No, Dad, that's how I break out.

I'm not going back there. Who does that guy think he is anyway?

Your boss.

Time to cut the cake.

I don't want any cake.

That's too bad, Arnold.

Can I have your piece?

I am hush.

Look, Arnold.

Sid Franklin's been a photographer for a long time.

And, honey, I'm sure he has a lot he can teach you.

I've already learned the difference between milk and Cremora.

I'm out of there.

Listen, Arnold.

When I first went to work, my father had the good sense to start me at the

bottom. I wasn't too thrilled at the time. I had to work with a lot of

people. But you know something?

Those people taught me an awful lot about how to run a business that I

learn in college.

Yeah, but Dad was Mr.

Get me some more coffee, kid. Franklin.

I have to work my way up just to get to the bottom.

I'll just tell myself.

I'm not going to tell you what to do. You're old enough to make up your own

mind. But I do suggest that you give this decision a little more thought.

Boy, I thought growing up was going to be fun.

I'm just going to come right out and tell him.

I'm just going to let him have it. Franklin, you bug me and I've had enough

your guff and I'm quitting.

Forget it.

Apologies are too late.

Hey, Sid, get off your knees.

Begging won't work.

Tears, you could cry the Mississippi River.

This rambling kind of guy is moving on.

I know I keep this office humming.

But that's your problem now, Franklin.

Coffee. Hot and on my desk.

Morning, sir.

Yeah.

Oh, now, come on, kid. You know how I like my coffee.

Right, sir. Black.

And hot and on my desk when I come in.

Yes, sir.

Look, uh, Mr.

Franklin, uh, I, uh, got something to tell you.

Well, I'd hate to leave you on a lurch, but, uh, today's my last day. I'm

quitting. Fine.

Fine?

You're not mad?

Only unless you don't get my coffee for me.

They're on the payroll until nightfall, you know that.

There's a ring of armor down at the docks.

Come on, kid. Come on, let's go.

Move it.

I only hope you loaded the cameras better than you make the coffee.

Come on, kid!

Not bad, kid.

You mean the way I printed up six rolls of film from the dock fire?

No, the coffee.

I'm going to miss you.

All right, Mr. Franklin.

Here you are.

Oh.

Listen, I know you're headed for early retirement, but I want to clue you in on

this writing rough captions on these pictures.

Now, you've got here, firemen fighting dark ways, right?

So what's wrong with that? I turned the picture over, and lo and behold, there's

a fireman fighting a dark blaze.

But he didn't put the location of the fire, the time of the fire, or the

companies that were covering it.

Well, I put all that on the first photo.

Well, supposing I decide to send this one out to an editor.

There may be ten fires around town. How is he supposed to know where it is?

You know, being a photographer doesn't mean you just go around snapping

pictures.

Yes, sir.

I guess we'll go with this one.

As soon as I write down where it was.

Well, sir, if you don't need me anymore... Wait a minute, wait a minute.

are you doing? What are those?

These are mine. I was taking them for practice. Well, let me see.

Yeah.

Not bad.

Really?

Just boring.

Boring?

But this one right here, this one's got a...

flying over here to firemen, flames. Yeah, but what's missing?

Looks like every dark fire that was ever photographed.

Now, boring, kid.

I'll tell you what's boring.

It's the way you've been treating me. That's boring.

All I do is make coffee, run for sandwiches, clean the lab, make

chemicals. And now finally I get a chance to take some real photographs and

jump all over them.

Well, I've had it. I'm quitting. I'm out of here.

You're through?

Then you don't want to know why one of your pictures was the best that either

us took?

Maybe the best in the city?

Is?

Fuck you, kid.

What do you see?

Well, uh... I see a fireman giving mouth -to -mouth resuscitation to a little

kitten.

I figured my kid brother would like it. Your kid brother and everyone else in

this town?

That's our page one picture.

It's got everything. It's got drama.

Emotion, humanity.

It's the kind of a picture that everybody who sees it will always

It's really that good?

You better quit it.

You know what?

In that body of yours which makes too many complaints, you've got a heart.

And it was that heart of yours that made you take this picture.

You know, a guy who complains too much, he can change his mind, can't he?

No way.

But you could reapply.

What? And lose my seniority?

You're a wiseacre, Jackson.

Go get me some more coffee.

Yes, sir. Coffee, donuts, shish kebab, anything you want.

Hey, Tom. Yeah, Franklin. Listen, I got a great page winner.

No, I didn't take it.

My assistant took it.

Arnold Jackson.

All right!

Sure, Mom.

Mom, Mom, okay, okay, Mom. Yes, yes.

Mom, Mom, I love you, too.

Goodbye, Mom.

So what mom's after that?

I don't know. I never listen.

Actually, I'm not even sure that was my mom.

No, seriously, she's talking about my sister.

Marwa's got a new girlfriend.

Marwa's got a job at a big accounting firm.

Marwa has such a wonderful life.

You know, Mom, you should be more like your sister.

Get your girlfriend, settle on down.

Well, we get to hear all about Marwa's perfect life in about six hours. She's

coming to visit for the weekend.

I don't mind.

You know, she cooks, she cleans.

You know, you really should be more like your sister.

Oh, no.

Oh, Ed, what's the worst possible thing that could come in the mail?

A finger.

Or worse, a letter from the IRS.

That's kind of like getting a fangy.

It's going to collect the funny bones.

It's just going to leave you alone while you sit inside your home.

Sure, I'm looking forward to spending the weekend with you guys.

Hey, us too, Mara. You know, you picked the perfect weekend to come. You can

help us with our tax audit. Eddie got a little creative with his write -offs.

Me? You're the one that called a romantic getaway with a waitress up.
