DANIEL: I was driving to work this
morning thinking I will be here,

in two months,
it'll be 10 years.

And you're like my real family.
Isn't that tragic?

(ALL LAUGH)

I got a call from my mother this
morning who wished me a happy birthday

and hinted around the fact that
I wasn't making enough money.

If you can call, "Are you still making
the same salary, honey?" a hint.

(ALL LAUGH)

And my ex-wife used to
say the same thing

although she never used
the word "honey."

So maybe in three years,
I can double my income?

Good luck.

Four years?
Maybe.

Okay.

So you're great people
to work with

and this is a great present.

And I wish I could squeeze all
of you into one pretty woman.

And if you'd like to go
into my office, I'll try.

Thanks a lot.

(ALL APPLAUDING)

I'll be home in an hour.
WOMAN: Why?

I'm taking Daniel
to get his new car.

I'm starving.
All right.

What'd he get?
BMW convertible.

Oh, my God. Leather?

Leather?
Oh, yeah.

Yeah.
I want one.

All right.
Kiss Alex for me.

I want one.

She says,
"Happy birthday."

Hey, these are really great.
Thanks a million.

Just stuff I like.
DANIEL: It's great.

Why do you drive this?

What?
I'm curious.

I see people driving
these things.

What do you know that I don't?
Or flood's coming?

Hoover Dam broke?
What's going on?

I like this car.

It's not a car.
It's a battering ram.

This is what Patton drove.

(IMITATING PATTON) Hey,
you, soldier, follow us.

Make fun, but in an 8.5
earthquake, you'll beg for a Jeep.

In an 8.5 earthquake,
I'll beg for a coffin.

(CHUCKLES)

So what are you doing tonight?

I'm gonna take a long drive.

Alone?

Unless somebody
comes with the car.

You don't want to be alone
on your birthday.

What better day to be alone?

I don't have that hang-up
like other people do

about your birthday and parties.

You are born alone,
you should celebrate it.

Celebrate aloneness.
That's what birthdays are for.

Yeah, I never thought
of it like that.

It's a pitiful theory.

CAR SALESMAN:
Yeah, sure.

WOMAN ON PHONE: Look,
I've had these cars before

and I know there's something wrong.
Mmm-hmm.

The smell is making me sick.

That's a normal smell,
Mrs. Bernstein.

That's a protective coating,
it's not oil burning.

I think it's oil.

You look fantastic.
You lose weight?

Did I what?

No, I was talking
to someone else.

Did any of the lights
come on the dash, dear?

I don't think so.

Well, that means you're okay.

If there's any trouble,
they come on.

Mrs. Bernstein,
we have a little saying around here.

"If you really smell something and
don't see lights, try dry cleaning."

Try what?

She has no sense of humor.

Dry cleaning?

Yeah, uh, tell you what.

If it smells on Monday,
you bring it in.

I'm very worried.
I'm sure it's nothing.

Well, I'm sure it's something.

Okay.
I'm on my way in.

Trouble with one
of the new cars?

Oh, no.
She's a lunatic.

Boy, you have lost
a lot of weight!

How could I lose
a lot of weight?

You saw me three days ago.

You look different.
Why? What is it?

I don't know.

I just wrote you
a check for $39,000.

Ah, that's it.
That's the look.

39 grand lighter.

Let's go get it, huh?

Let's get her. Whoo!

Hey, what do you got in the box?

It's my birthday.
They gave me a compact disk player.

Hey, happy birthday.

You got a CD player in the car.

No, I don't.

You paid for it.
No, I didn't.

You said you wanted
the best radio.

The best radio comes with a CD.

Don't worry.
You'll love it.

There she is.

Wow.
It's gorgeous!

Look at it.
It looks huge!

It's beautiful!
Beautiful.

That's not it.
That's a 750. That's it.

What a cutie.

Gee, try not to show
the 750 first.

My car looks like a turd now.

I'm gonna level with you.

If I had to choose between
this car and yours,

I'd take yours every time.

You're an idiot, Jim.

(SCREAMING)

Good afternoon,
and welcome to Judgment City.

You've just had
quite a little journey,

so for now, relax
and enjoy the ride.

Considering the transformation
you've just been through,

you really won't have
any choice.

Now, if we've done our
work correctly,

you should all be from the
western half of the United States.

Even though this
isn't the Earth,

our surroundings should seem
pleasing and very familiar to you.

Exactly why you're here

and what you'll be doing
will be explained later.

No need to worry about that now.

Soon we will be dropping
you off at your hotel.

You will sleep the night
and tomorrow when you wake,

you'll feel wonderful
and raring to go.

You'll find many activities for your
enjoyment here in Judgment City.

For example,

how many like to play golf?

You won't be able to get
your hands up just yet,

but good, we have three
championship golf courses.

So sit back and have fun.

You're all gonna be here
for the next five days

and we want you to
enjoy yourselves.

Ladies and gentlemen,
this is the Continental Hotel.

Those staying here will be
escorted from the tram.

The rest of us will depart momentarily.
Thank you.

Watch your step.

Ladies and gentlemen, welcome.
My name is Stan.

Because of what
you've just been through,

you'll want to go directly to
your room and go fast asleep.

You're already checked in.

You have nothing to
worry about tonight.

Everything will be explained
to you in the morning.

Have a good rest.

If you have any questions,
I'm here to help.

Thank you.

Excuse me, sir.

Mr. Miller, this is your room.
Make yourself at home.

I'll be right back.

This way, please, sir.

Sir. All the clothing you'll need for
the time you're here is in this closet.

We call these tupas.
They're like caftans.

They're quite comfortable
and they fit everyone.

Would you like to shower,
or are you too tired?

You're too tired?

I understand.
There are five channels

of programming
on the television.

Channel 3 will tell you
all about Judgment City.

Have a wonderful night's sleep,

and if I can do anything for
you, I'm at your service.

I'd be very surprised if
you found anything in there,

but I appreciate the attempt.

Sleep well.

(SNORING)

- Good morning, Ellen.
- Morning.

- Good morning, Philip.
- Morning.

Glad you could make it, Leonard.

Good morning, Susan.

Good morning,
Mr. Diamond.

Who's prosecuting?

Lena Foster.

Hmm.

Huh.

She's going to have
a field day with this one.

She lost last Thursday.

Really?

There is a God.

Okay, call him up, please.

(TELEPHONE RINGING)

Hmm.

(RINGING CONTINUES)

Hello?
Mr. Miller?

Yes?

Hold on for Bob Diamond, please.

Who?

DIAMOND: Daniel?
Yeah?

Diamond here. How are you, my friend?
Good sleep?

Yes.
Amazing, isn't it?

Listen, you're gonna get up,
get showered,

you're gonna put on
some of those nice clothes,

you're gonna take
a tram downtown

and you're gonna come
see me this morning.

Do you have any idea
what's going on?

No.

Well, in a nutshell,
you're here to defend your life,

and I'm going to help you.

Defend my life?

In a few hours, you're going to be
smarter than anyone you've ever met.

Sound exciting?

Yeah, I guess.

It is, believe me.

Say, did you eat breakfast yet?

No.

I've got some good news for you.

It's not only the best food you'll ever
have, but you can eat all you want.

I can what?

As long as you're here,
you can eat all you want.

It won't affect you physically

and you won't gain weight.

So pig out! Eat 30 hotcakes.
I'll see you at 11:00.

I can eat all I want?

Eat everything. Take care.

(DIAL TONE)

Hello?

WOMAN ON TV:
You never loved me.

You never loved me for a second.

MAN: I've loved you
from the day I met you.

When was the first day
you meet me?

Do you remember?

Don't do this to me, Karen.

Of course, I remember.

WOMAN: What's
my middle name?

You never told me that.

It's the first thing I told you.

In which life?

In which life?

(CHANGES CHANNEL)
(STUDIO AUDIENCE GROAN)

That's it, Lenore.
You tried, you failed.

The game's over for you.

Stay here and someone
will come and get you.

Stu, the decision is yours.

Do you want to stop here,
or face your fear?

I'll face the fear.

He's facing his fear!

He's facing his fear!

ANNOUNCER: You might just
get a hole in one.

Say, want to eat a lot?

Ted's House of Buffet says you can
have everything you see, plus more.

Our chefs will cook it,
but they won't look.

Like to horseback ride?

Judgment Stables,
open till sunset, welcomes you.

If your trial's through early,

come take a 2-mile ride with us.

You'll have fun.

(♫ MUZAK PLAYING)

(ELEVATOR BELL DINGS)

Good morning.

Good morning.

"Take the eggs,
I pray thee."

So, what's good here?

Everything we have
is sensational.

How's the cheese omelet?
Sensational.

I'll take it and
some orange juice.

I'll be right back.

(BELL DINGS)

Whoa!

Wow!

This wasn't made for
somebody else, was it?

No, this was made for you.

That fast?

Fast and delicious.
Eat all you want.

Phew.

Oh, my!

Mmm!

Mr. Miller?

Mmm!

Delicious.
That's nice.

A red tram is leaving right now

that will get you into town by 11:00.
Mmm-hmm.

Just to make sure
you're on time,

I think you should leave now.

These are the best eggs
I've ever had ever.

Of course.

WOMAN OVER PA:
Ladies and gentlemen,

welcome to the Inner City
Transport System.

Please remain seated until the
your vehicle comes to a full stop.

Never exit the tram
while it's in motion

because of the electronic field

that's setup around
the moving vehicle.

It is very dangerous.
Thank you.

Oh, so young!

AIDS?

Oh, no.
Car accident.

Oh, my God!

But you feel
okay now, don't you?

Yes, I do.

Oh, me, too.

Isn't it amazing?
Is this what you thought it would be?

I certainly didn't.

I don't know what it is yet.
Do you?

No, I guess I don't.

You make me think
of my little poodle.

Do you have a dog?

I did have a dog, yeah.

Oh.

Well, I'll tell you
about my dog.

I had a little…

Have you got a while?

Yeah, go ahead.

They let us on the
train in those days.

We didn't have to put him
in the baggage car.

And every time the
conductor was coming around,

he knew it.

And he would crawl down
in the corner of the bag.

Did you ever have a dog?

You asked me that twice.

What did you say?
Yes.

What did I say?

You said it's wonderful.

Well, it is.

Mr. Miller, welcome.
I'm Helen,

- one of Mr. Diamond's assistants.
- Oh, hi.

- Would you come with me, please?
- Sure.

- Bye-bye.
- Bye-bye.

Looks familiar, doesn't it?

I was just thinking that.

Well, that's how
it was designed,

so it can be as stress-free
for you folks as possible.

By the way, if there's anything we
can do to make it more like Earth,

we have suggestion boxes
on almost every corner.

We'd like to hear from you.

You know, if you really want to make
this whole place seem more like Earth,

you should start building
some of those mini malls.

You know, it's funny
you should say that.

Six of them opened up
just outside of town.

I hear they're lovely.

Personally, I don't think
I would use them

because I don't like yogurt
and I love doing my own nails.

Mr. Diamond will be with
you in just a moment.

Thank you.

Huh!

Daniel, Bob Diamond.

Hi.
Come on in.

(BOOKS THUD)

How are you?

Sit down, my friend.

What are you looking at?
What's wrong?

You… You look good
in that tupa.

Some people don't, but you do.

It's flattering to you.

Thanks.

So, is this what you
thought it would be?

Thought what would be?
Where am I? Is this heaven?

No, it isn't heaven.

Is it hell?

No, it isn't hell either.

Actually, there is no hell.

Although I hear Los Angeles
is getting pretty close.

(LAUGHS)

Well, Daniel,

let me tell you what's going on.

When you're born
into this universe,

you're in it for a long,
long time.

You have many
different lifetimes,

and after each lifetime,

there's an examining
period, which you're in now.

You see, every second of every
lifetime is always recorded,

and as each one ends,
we sort of look at it…

Look at a few of the
days, examine it.

And then if everybody
agrees, you move forward.

What do you mean, move forward?

I mean move forward.
Continue onward.

The point of this whole thing
is to keep getting smarter,

to keep growing,

to use as much of
your brain as possible.

For example, I use
48% of my brain.

Do you know how much you use?

47?

3.

I'm sorry?

3.

I use 3% of my brain?

Yes. Don't worry
about it.

Everybody on Earth
uses 3% of their brain.

3 to 5%.
That's why they're there.

Three? 3%? 3%?

You mean nobody on Earth
uses more than that?

When you use more than
5% of your brain,

you don't want to be on
Earth, believe me.

Well, not that your take-out
places are lovely,

but there are more exciting
destinations for smarter people.

Now, being from Earth as you are

and using as little of
your brain as you do,

your life has pretty much been
devoted to dealing with fear.

It has?

Well, everybody on
Earth deals with fear.

That's what Little Brains do.

What are "Little Brains"?

That's what we call you folks
behind your back.

(SNICKERING)

Forgive me.

Who are you?

Well, I'm just like you.

I was on Earth a long time ago.

But I advanced, I moved forward.
I got over my fears.

And I got smarter.

Did you have friends
whose stomachs hurt?

Every one of them.
It's fear.

Fear is like a giant fog.

It sits on your brain
and blocks everything…

Real feelings,
true happiness, real joy.

They can't get through that fog.

But you lift it,

and, buddy, you're in for
the ride of your life.

God, my 3% is swimming.

What are you reading?

You wouldn't understand this.

Just numbers.

You read numbers?
Yes, sir.

So I'm on trial
for being afraid?

First of all, I don't like
to call it a "trial."

Second of all, yes.

Well, what if I'm guilty,
what happens to me?

Don't think
"innocent" or "guilty."

Worse comes to worse, you'll go back
to Earth and you'll try it again.

Well, what do you do? You just keep
going back until you get it right?

Well, you don't keep going back.

Eventually, they'll
throw you away.

Have I been to Earth before?
Oh, yeah.

How many times?
Approaching 20.

Is that a lot?

I was there six.

Oh, my God!

So I'm the dunce
of the universe.

Don't be silly.

We've had people who've
been there 100 times.

I wouldn't want to hang
out with any of them,

but we've seen them.

If you're defending me,
is there a prosecutor?

Damn good one.
Lena Foster.

We call her
"The Dragon Lady."

That's our prosecutor?
Mmm-hmm.

Who does she work for?

The universe.

You see, the Universe is like a big
machine, and you and I are parts.

Now they don't want a part to
get through unless it's ready.

A bad part gets through

and the whole
machine breaks down.

So that's what we're here for,

to make sure you're ready.

So what do they want
to look at exactly?

I can't tell you that exactly.

But I can tell you it's
nine days from your life.

Nine days?

So my trial goes
on for nine days?

No. All the trials
go on for four days.

Over that time, we're
looking at nine days,

or episodes from your life.

Which days? Tell me that.

I'm not allowed.

Is that a normal number?

High? Low? Is that
a good number? Normal?

You're very concerned
about normal, aren't you?

Kind of cute.

I'd prefer seven,
but nine's fine.

Some people have 12.

Say, you're hungry?
Starving.

I had one bite,
then I got on the tram.

Well, Mr. All-You-Can-Eat,
let's stuff. Come on.

DANIEL: Mmm! Mm!

We have about
400,000 residents here.

We service half
of the United States' dead.

That's about 2,500 people a day.

Good.

Do children come here?

Children don't have
to defend themselves.

When a child is taken,
they automatically move forward.

Isn't that nice?

Mmm, what about teenagers?

Too much trouble.
They go elsewhere.

We tried for a while,
but they damaged the tupas.

Too rowdy.

What about your chicken?
How do you like?

Oh, delicious.
Yeah.

Mmm.
What are you eating?

Oh, you wouldn't
like this. (CHUCKLES)

What is it?
What does it taste like?

You're curious, aren't you?

Good! I like
that about you.

You want to try?
Yeah.

It looks so weird.

(SPITS)

(LAUGHS)

Oh, my God.

A little like horse shit, huh?

(GAGS)

As you get smarter,
you manipulate your senses.

This tastes much different to
me, than it does to you.

Ooh! (GAGS)

This is what smart people eat?

So talk to me, Daniel.

Tell me about your life.

You feel you had any problems?

Well, sure I had some problems.

Everybody has
problems, don't they?

Everybody on earth.
Yeah. (CHUCKLES)

Did you give a lot to charity?

What do you mean a lot?

A lot of money.
Did you donate things?

This isn't a good or bad thing.

It's just merely my curiosity.

Well, I mean, I'm sure
I could have given more.

I gave a lot to people
on the street,

but you never get a receipt.

How much do you have to give?

What's the total?

Don't worry about it.

Relax!

But there was one person you were
really cheap with over and over again.

I wish you'd been
more generous with him.

Who?

You.

Well, I got to go.
I'm late.

Where do you go now?

You wouldn't understand.

I don't mean that as an insult.

I mean it literally.

Get out tonight.
Have some fun.

Say, you know
what you might try?

Get over the
past lives pavilion.

What is that?

It's where you see the
people you've been before.

What?
Yeah.

You see yourself in other lives?
Yeah.

Most people love it.
But some it makes nauseous.

(LAUGHS)

Don't worry about it.

All right. Take care.

Listen, you like that chicken?

You want to take it with you?

They love putting things
in bags around here.

If you need to talk
to me at any time,

just call me up.

I never sleep.
Never?

Well, I had another question.
See ya'.

Okay, I'll call you later.

MAN: Already checked in.

You have nothing
to worry about tonight.

(SCOFFS)

Everything will be explained
to you in the morning.

Have a good rest.

If you have any questions,
I'm here to help.

Thank you.

(ELEVATOR BELL DINGS)

If I told you
how old this man was,

you wouldn't believe me.

Should I tell them?
Huh? Should I?

We're talking light-years.

Light-years.

He looks good, though.

No prostate, but he looks fine.

(MAN LAUGHS)

Come on. You're looking
at me like stunned sheep.

Come on, folks.

What is this, a white sale?

Come on!

Well, folks,
I'm going to tell you a story.

About a year ago,

this little brain comes in here.

I'm talking, and
this is documented,

half a percent of
his brain, at the most.

He orders a piece of pie.

He forgets what it is.

(INAUDIBLE)

Well, I know what it is.
I'm looking and it's a piece of pie.

I say, "What the
hell are you doing?"

He says, "I'm waiting
to make a call."

I say, "Does that
look like a phone?"

He says, "It is a phone."

(CHUCKLES)

Well, the joke was on me.

He picked up the pie,
called his mother.

Folks, come on, please,
stay with me here.

You're on trial, not me, okay?

Hi. What's your name?

Arthur.

Hi, Arthur,
and where were you from?

Denver.

Lovely city, Denver, Arthur.

Did you ski?
No.

No.

How'd you die?

I was in a coma.

I'm sorry.
How long were you in the coma?

I really don't know.

Let's play a game, Art.

Elvis. Living or dead?

Living.

Long coma, Art.

Long coma.

Have a nice day.

Hi. How are you?
What's your name?

Ernie.

Hi, Ernie, you having a good
time here in judgment city?

Oh, it's fun.
Food's good.

Yeah, it is, isn't it?

Have you been on the stables?
A little exercise?

You like to horseback ride?

Not very much.

Good.

There's a nice-looking
young man over there.

Hi. How'd you die?

On stage, like you.

(ALL LAUGHING)

Pretty funny. Maybe you
should come up here, huh?

No, thank you.

Of course, he doesn't
want to come up here.

You know why? 'Cause
this is very hard work.

But I love to do it,
and I love you little brains.

As a matter of fact, have you heard
any new little brain jokes lately?

Hi.
Hi.

I know you, right?

I hope so.
Who are you?

I'm Julia.
Hi. I'm Daniel.

Hi.
You know me?

Well, I thought I did.

You weren't in the bus,
were you?

What bus?
I hit a bus.

Oh, no, I don't think so.

Oh, good. Sit down.

I'm sorry, I just…

You really look
so familiar to me.

Really?
Yeah.

Maybe because I'm the only
man in here under a 100.

(LAUGHS)

Yeah, that could be it.

(CLEARS THROAT)

MAN ON PA:
Check the time.

You know, I want to
tell you a true story.

This really happened.

About three months ago,

these six dead people come in…

Obviously humor has nothing
to do with brain size.

Obviously.

Do you want to take
a walk or something,

or do you want to
stay, see the show?

Well, I have to.
That's my dad.

I'm kidding.
Oh…

That would be so sad for me.
That would be awful.

So, the moral of
the story is, folks,

if you got to fart, go outside.

Let's go. Please.
Let's just go.

Folks, please.
Please, folks.

You don't wanna miss the song.

We'll get the record.

Please.

Okay.

Right now, Ed and I would
like to do a beautiful song.

I know it's one
of your favorites.

We'd like to do it a little different.

You call him a lawyer?

What do you call yours?

Sam.

You call him by his first name?

Yeah.
Never occurred

I bet you called everybody by
their first name, didn't you?

Like, what was your
butcher's name?

Pete.

What about your mailman?

Jesse. What was
your mailman's name?

I have no idea.

He was coming to my
house for over a decade,

and I couldn't tell you.

Didn't you get him a Christmas
presents or anything? Yes. Liquor.

But I just put it in the box.
Uh-huh.

I don't suppose
you had a butcher?

Steve. Steve Rubin.

Seriously?
Yeah.

Steve?
But he wasn't

He was just a good buddy
who had the equipment

and liked to cut meat.

What? You'd bring him
a steak, he'd cut it.

Chat for a while and go home.

So, how many days
are you looking at?

Four.
That's all?

I guess that means you'll go on.

Oh…

I hope so.
Sam thinks so.

Sam does?
Yeah.

I hope you and Sam
are very happy.

I'll write you from hell.

I like this.

Were you married?
Yes.

Children?
No.

What about you?

Well, I had a little girl,
and I adopted a little boy.

How old were they?

Stephanie was seven,
and Adam was nine.

I bet they miss you, huh?

I'm sure they do.

I miss them,
but I feel okay about it.

Don't you?

Well, I didn't really
know them that well.

No, I mean…

- It does… It feels ok. Doesn't it?
- Yeah.

They say they make it that way

so we can get down to work,

so we can look at our lives
without any distractions.

I know, my lawyer Bob
told me the same thing.

Yeah?

But wouldn't you
call this a distraction?

Yes.

But isn't eating all
you want a distraction?

Oh, isn't that the best?

Isn't that the best?

I had a dream six months ago

that I would go to a place where
I could eat as much as I wanted.

And now I'm here!

You think you were
dreaming about this place?

No, no. I think I was
dreaming about sizzler.

There was one
a block from my house.

(SIGHS)

What about your husband?

Did you have a good marriage?

Parts of it were okay.

How about your wife?

I got married too young.
That's all I can say.

How old were you?

71.

What did she look like?

Very pretty.
Too pretty.

What do you mean?

Well, I have this theory that
you should be with another person

who's good-looking
enough to turn you on.

Any excess brings problems.

She was much
prettier than I needed.

I never heard
that theory before.

So, do you like your lawyer?
Are you happy with him?

Oh, he's brilliant.

You know how big his brain is?

I just came from a world
filled with penis envy.

Now I'm in a world
with brain envy.

No. How big
is his brain?

Hmm.

What is this?

It's my hotel.

This is your hotel?

Yeah.

Where are you staying?

Obviously, the place for
people who weren't generous

and didn't adopt anybody.

I'm at the continental.

Come over.
We'll paint it.

Listen.

Tomorrow after the trials,
you want to have dinner?

Oh, I can't tomorrow.

You can't?
No. I'm sorry.

Well, you can't
have plans already.

What am I supposed to do?
Call you in two weeks?

No. Sam is just having
a small dinner party.

He said that there are gonna be some
very, very smart people there.

He asked me if I wanted to go.

Sam again.

I hope you're not
dating your defender.

I just know in
my heart it's wrong.

- Well, I'll call you after the dinner.
- Okay.

We could talk on the phone.
Good.

It will give me time to
have sex with my prosecutor.

Good luck tomorrow.

Thanks.

Good night.
Good night.

Good night.

(PA DINGING)

WOMAN ON PA:
Champagne and caviar

are now being served
in the blue room.

Daniel, right here.

How you feeling, buddy?

Feeling pretty good.

You doing all right?
I'm doing okay.

Let's go.

Nervous?

No. Should I be?

I wouldn't be.

What did you do last night?

I met this amazing woman.

You met a girl?
You're kidding me.

What are you laughing at?

It just sounds funny.

Two days after the car accident,

you're in love.
Go figure.

Like I believe it.
I've done this a million times,

and every time
it feels like new.

Here we are.

Ready?

Hello, Robert.

Well, well, well.
If it isn't my old friend.

I heard we lost last
Thursday, didn't we?

Leave it to you
to greet me with that.

Turnabout's fair play, I think.

I'm going to get you.

I promise.

Good morning.

Good morning.
Don't make

Are you two feuding?

It isn't a feud.

Feuding suggests at one
time you liked each other.

We never did.

There should be a mistrial here.

This isn't a mistrial.

This isn't a trial.
Then it's a "mis"

You two are already fighting.

Morning.

Good morning.
Good morning.

Morning.
Morning.

Mr. Miller,
I'm sure your defender

has explained all
of the basics to you,

but let me just say,

even though this feels
like a trial, it really isn't.

It's just a process
that helps us decide.

As imperfect as it may be,

we think it works quite well.

What you're going to see
in the screen Mr. Miller,

will look and feel
so real to you,

you might be a little
uneasy at first.

But just relax.

After a while, I think it will
become pleasurable to you.

They tell me it feels
something like 3-D.

Any questions,
Mr. Miller?

Miss Foster, you may begin.

Thank you, Your Honors.

Over the course of
the following four days,

I will attempt to show
that Daniel Miller,

while he's a quality
human being,

is still held back by the fears

that have plagued him
lifetime after lifetime.

I believe that I can show,
without a shadow of a doubt,

that he must once again
be returned to earth

to work on this problem.

May we begin in
childhood, please?

Could we go to 11-4-19?

JUDGE: By the way,
Mr. Miller,

this signifies you're 11 years,
4 months, and 19 days old.

Is that clear?

I think so.

What are the words
If I said 9-2-17,

you would be 9 years,
2 months, and 17 days old.

I understand.

DIAMOND: Psst.

(BEEPING)

Wow!

Realistic, isn't it,
Mr. Miller?

(SCATTERED CHATTER)

Hey, Miller, look what I found.

Come on.
Give me that.

Make me.

(INDISTINCT SHOUTING)

You know why you're
not gonna make me?

'Cause I'll beat
the shit out of you.

You couldn't beat
the shit out of me.

Oh, yeah?

(GROANS)
Hit him, Daniel!

(ALL CLAMORING)

Come on, chicken.

Poor chicken.

Hit me right here.
Come on, chicken.

BOY: Hit him, Daniel!

ALL: Hit him! Hit him!

Why don't you
stick up for yourself?

Low life chicken.

ALL: Chicken! Chicken!

Oh…

Well, that's too bad.

Listen, why don't you come
over to my house later

and I'll help you
glue it back together.

(ALL LAUGHING)

(BELL RINGS)

(BEEPS)

Mr. Miller, would you tell
us what you were feeling

as you watched that episode?

It felt strange to watch myself.

Is that what you mean?

No, I mean emotionally.

What kind of feelings
did this bring up?

Um…

Frustration?

It's not a test.

There's no right answer.

Is that what you felt?
Frustration?

I guess.

Do you know why you were afraid?

I object.

How did we introduce the word
"afraid" all of a sudden?

From frustration to afraid?

This is already
pronouncing him guilty.

Couldn't we use
another word, please?

What word would you use?

What word would I use?

How about "restraint"?

I think the little boy
was quite dignified.

Restraint?

Yes, ma'am.

May I show you what I mean?

Be my guest.

Your Honors, may we
go to 1-8-17, please?

(BEEPING)

- What are you accusing me of?
- Nothing.

- What are you accusing me of?
- Nothing!

Why don't you say it to my face?

What are you talking about?

Why don't you ever
think about my problems?

Just lower your voice.
Lower my voice?

You said you wouldn't
yell in front of the baby.

Baby. It's always the baby.
(BABBLES)

What about me?

I live here, too!
This is my house, too!

- I work very hard to pay for this house!
- I know you do.

No, you don't.

The minute I earn it,
you go out and spend it!

What do you mean?
You think I spend too much money?

Yes!
All I do is scrimp!

Look, if you don't like it,

why don't you get on you high
horse and get out of here!

George, stop it!
No!

This happens every
time you drink!

Every time!
It's lecture time!

It's lecture time!

Why don't you just sit down
and join the lecture!

Please…
Don't touch me.

George!

(CRYING)

(BEEPS)

DIAMOND: In that one brief,
extraordinary moment

when that baby and his
father's eyes linked,

this child learned
the meaning of restraint.

He wasn't afraid.

He was mature.

He was non-violent.

Dignified, I call it.

Now, my colleague may
believe in hitting first

and asking questions later.

But, we're not all that way.

I resent that.

Let's ask Mr. Miller.

Mr. Miller,
in the schoolyard,

did you want to
hit that child back?

Well, I wanted to hit him
back, but I felt restraint.

You felt restraint.
I see.

And do you think that restraint

is the best course of
action every single time

in every case?

No.

Wouldn't this have been a
case to not restrain yourself?

I believe, if you'd have
stuck up for yourself,

this event would
not have haunted you

throughout your entire lifetime.

You never got this
out of your mind.

You always thought about
it, didn't you?

Hold on a second!

People think about
lots of things

throughout their
entire lifetime.

You're going to isolate
this one incident?

Aren't we here to
isolate incidents?

Or maybe I don't
understand the job.

Your Honors,
to save valuable time,

I submit 11-4-19 as shown,

without further comment.

JUDGE:
Mr. Diamond?

I'm fully satisfied.

I love watching this kid.

Mr. Miller, is there anything
you would like to say?

I feel very good
about the restraint idea.

Thank you,
Mr. Miller.

JUDGE: Mr. Diamond,
you're up.

Your Honors, while
we're still in childhood,

I'd like to show something

which I feel is
absolutely extraordinary.

Could we go to 10-9-15, please?

(BEEPING)

I'm on probation for
stealing those books.

Now they're gonna
think I stole this.

I'm gonna be expelled.

You won't be expelled.

Of course I will.
I'm already on probation.

I'm in big trouble.

(SHUSHING)

Good afternoon, class.

ALL: Good afternoon,
Mr. Wadworth.

Continue working on the assignment
you started last Tuesday.

Here, take these.

Really?

I'll say I lost mine.

But you'll get in trouble.

Just do it.

Daniel, where are your supplies?

I left them at home.

You left them?

I lost them.

What did you do?
Lose them or leave them?

Well, both,
I left them and I lost them.

Where are your supplies, Daniel?

What's going on?
Do you know how much these things cost?

Class, tell Daniel
how much the paints cost.

ALL: $10.

And the brushes?

ALL: $3.

What's the total?

ALL: $13.

If you don't have any paint,
you can't be an artist, Daniel.

If just like you can't be a swimmer
unless you get into the water.

You've got to have paint,
you understand that?

Yeah.
This is careless behavior.

I'll have to call your
father after school today.

We're gonna have to figure out
a way for you to pay for this.

Yeah.

(BEEPS)

You got in quite a bit of trouble for
that, didn't you, Dan?

Yes.

But you felt your friend would
have been punished worse.

Yes.

Your Honors, at 10 years old,

he showed the kind of courage
that most adults never find.

I let the life
stand for itself here.

Could we go to 10-9-15?
It's the evening of that same day.

Thanks.

(BEEPING)

How are you gonna get the
money to pay for this?

I don't know.

I'm very, very
disappointed in you.

I'm sorry.

Now, we're gonna have
to punish you severely.

You don't have to punish me.

Yes, we do.

First of all,
no television for a month!

I didn't do it!

Steve did it!

It was Steve's fault.

What are you saying to me?

Steve lost the paints.

He probably stole them,
just like he stole the books.

I didn't do it.
You've got to believe me.

Steve.

Yeah.

Hey, punish him.

(BEEPS)

What happened to
your friend Steve?

Do you remember,
Mr. Miller?

What do you mean?

He was expelled from
school two days later.

Isn't that what happened to him?

I thought he left on his own.

What's the point, please?

I'm looking at the results

of what you call
a courageous action.

Mr. Miller might have acted
bravely in the classroom,

but we just watched him crumble
a few hours later, and why?

At the threat of no television?

I was 10-years-old.

Television is everything
to a 10-year-old.

It's like heroin.

You can't just pull it away.

And I never wanted
to watch television.

My parents made me
'cause they could go out.

And I got hooked.

You Honors, Miss Foster and
I have had this argument

for a long time.

I think the act itself
is what's important.

But she wants to
keep enlarging it

until everything
loses its meaning.

If I fixed a flat
tire on your car,

and two years later
I lose your garden hose,

according to you I'm not going
to get any credit for the flat.

I'm just the dumb
guy who lost the hose.

And let me suggest this…

Did we ever think

that this young boy had
a bond with his father?

I don't think it had anything
to do with the friend.

I just think Daniel
couldn't lie to his dad.

That's all.

You're nodding,
Mr. Miller.

Does that mean you
agree with Mr. Diamond?

Oh, yes.

I had a bond with my father.

I pretty much never lied to him.

You never lied to your father?

Would you like me to show
you at least 500 examples?

I said "pretty much" never lied.

I didn't say I never ever lied.

You have to lie sometimes…

In an emergency.

But it doesn't mean that
the bond is affected.

If you've got the bond,
the bond's always there.

And if you have
to lie occasionally,

you not gonna interfere
with the bond.

You know…

The bond can wait
for a little lie.

And in the end
it's there for you.

You know, sometimes
in the middle of a lie,

I found that the bond
would kick in,

maybe squeeze
a little truth out.

Psst.

Wrap it up.

I'm through.

Very good day.
I'm very pleased.

She's tough, isn't she?

If I told you how
tough, my friend

you wouldn't sleep, believe me.

Well, I'm off.
Call me if you need me.

What are you doing this evening?

Going out with that gal?
I can't. She's busy.

Busy? Hah!

Well, I'll be damned.

How are you?
All right.

(SPEAKING JAPANESE)

Hi.

How are you?
(SPEAKS JAPANESE)

Thank you.

(SPEAKING JAPANESE)

Uh, some sake.
Sake.

One sake!

ALL: (SHOUTING) Sake!

How are you tonight?
Fine.

Thank you.

What's good here?
Everything we have.

Everything.

What's this?
Looks like a worm.

That's our resident food.

What does it taste like?

You'll, uh, throw up.

Okay. Let me
have the tuna.

Tuna, sure.
Okay. Tuna!

Very good tuna!

Oh, very fast.
Very fast.

So I've been told.

Mmm. Delicious.

Do you like it?
Very good.

Thank you very much.
Very good.

So how many days
are you looking at?

Hmm?

How many days you looking at?

Nine.
Nine?

Mmm-hmm.
Nine days?

Oh, my God.
Nine days!

ALL: Nine days!

(ALL SHOUTING)

You better have more sake.

You got nine days?
Yeah.

I got 15.

My name's Frank.
Daniel.

15 days?
Mmm-hmm.

Is that a lot?
I don't know.

How'd you die, Dan?
May I call you Dan?

Yeah. I got hit by a bus. Ooh.

What about yourself?

Got shot in the head.

Really? Murder?

No.
Hunting accident.

Some putz with bad eyesight
thought I was an animal.

(LAUGHING)

How did you make your living, Dan?
Advertising.

What about yourself?

I made money in adult books.
Selling them?

No, reading them.
Yes, of course, selling them.

(CHUCKLING)

Were you from I.A.?

You know those nightclubs
up by the airport?

Those strip clubs?

I coined the phrase
"all nude."

What do you mean?
That was mine.

I bought two of the clubs
that were going under.

They were only using
the word "nude."

I put up
"totally all nude."

Mmm-hmm.

Doubled business in a month.

I got to take a piss.
You want to go?

No.

CHEFS: (SHOUTING)
Thank you very much!

I'm not leaving.
I'm just going to take a piss.

CHEFS: (SHOUTING)
Take a piss!

(PHONE RINGING)

Hello?
MAN: Mr. Miller?

Yes?

I have a message for you, sir.

You do?
Yes.

Here it comes.

JULIA: Hi! Where are you?

Okay.

I'm going to sleep.

Listen, tomorrow
when you're through,

meet me by the front
entrance, the main entrance.

I'll be there.

I miss you. Isn't that funny?
(CHUCKLES)

Good night.
(LINE CLICKS)

(AUDIENCE LAUGHING ON TV)

DIAMOND: This is wild.

Now, let me get this straight.

You actually had sex
with Benjamin Franklin?

Twice.
(AUDIENCE LAUGHING)

How was he?

He was fat, Bob.

AUDIENCE: Ooh!

(AUDIENCE APPLAUDING)

I couldn't believe it
when they told me.

(CHUCKLES)
It's wonderful.

I forgot all about it.

He was willing to
sleep underwater.

(LAUGHS)
Marvelous.

Good morning.
Oh, good morning.

Morning.
I'm Dick Stanley.

I'm going to defend you today.
You're what?

I'm going to defend you today.

Now, Mr. Diamond
couldn't make it.

I'm filling in for him.

He couldn't make it?
(CHUCKLES)

Come on, you're playing with me.

Mr. Diamond will be
back tomorrow.

How can you defend me?
You don't know anything about me.

Mr. Miller I use
51% of my brain.

I know everything about you.

51%? That's clocked?

Clocked.
Impressive.

Oh, I would lose.
I can't start all over with you.

(STUTTERS)
I have lots…

No, I operate a little
differently from Mr. Diamond,

but without tooting my own horn,

I'm quite good at this.

I'm familiar with
every day of your life

and I want you
to have confidence.

I'm going to lose.

Good morning.
Good morning.

JUDGE: Good morning,
everybody.

Thank you so much.

That was so nice.

Oh, it was nothing.

JUDGE: Good morning,
Mr. Miller.

Good morning.

Your Honor,
my defender is not here this morning.

And I feel that
under the circumstances,

this puts me at a disadvantage.

It's quite common.
Mr. Stanley will do fine.

Let's begin.

(SIGHS)
Your Honors,

today I would like to
begin with an episode

in the 24th year of life.

Mr. Miller had been,
uh, out of school

and working for several years.

And he had put aside $10,000
specifically to invest.

Do you remember,
Mr. Miller?

One of Mr. Miller's
good friends from school

was the son of an executive
of the Casio corporation,

which at that time
was a very small company

and not doing particularly well.

Mr. Miller had a dinner with his
friend, Your Honors

at which he was
given information

which comes along maybe once every
five, six lifetimes.

May we go to 24-2-16, please?

(WHIRRING)

(BEEPING)

They're gearing up now.

They should start production
in about three months.

Buy as much stock as you can.

(SPEAKS INDISTINCTLY)
Wait, wait, wait, wait.

Switzerland keeps
the time, Charles,

not Japan.

That's gonna change.
I don't think so.

Wait, why can't Japan
keep the time?

'Cause you need a society that's
into precision to keep time.

And with all due respect,
Japan makes a hell of a radio,

but they don't know beans
about precision.

Now, you come here,

and you tell me the Germans are
going to start making watches,

you've got my money.

(CHUCKLES)
What's the stock

Six.
Okay, here's

When word hits the street,

you're at three.

(CHUCKLES)
You watch.

Remember who said it.

(LAUGHING)

(BEEP)
(WHIRRING)

LENA: Your Honors, for the
record, the Casio corporation

is one of the largest manufacturers
of timepieces in the universe.

I know who they are.

And for the record, Your Honors,

his original investment
of $10,000

would be worth
37.2 million today.

Wow!

Mmm-hmm. I have nothing
further to say at this time.

Mr. Stanley.
I'm fine.

You're what?
He's not going to

You're not gonna
say anything at all now?

You speak.

I'd like to hear
what you have to say.

Jeez, you are good.

Listen, (STUTTERS) I'm not
as smart as everyone here,

but does this make me defective

because I didn't
make money on this?

I can't believe that the whole
point of the universe is…

Is to make money.
(STUTTERS) I just can't believe that.

LENA: This has nothing to do
with making money.

We're looking at
a judgment you made.

And nobody dragged you
from your home and said,

"You have to
invest $10,000."

You chose to do that.

You sought the investment.

We're just looking
at that choice.

What did you finally invest
in, Mr. Miller?

Do you remember?

(SOFTLY)
I think it was cattle.

Hmm?
(NORMAL) Cattle.

What happened to the cattle?

I never got a straight answer.

All I know is,
their teeth fell out.

I rest.

Mr. Stanley,
you're up.

No counter at this
time, Your Honor.

Wait a second.

You're not going to
show something in my favor?

Not at this juncture. No.

I think we'd do better
to move on.

(SCOFFS)
LENA: Shall we move on,

Sure, let's move on.

Your Honors,
I would like to go to 29-4-5.

This is the evening before Mr. Miller
took the job in advertising

he was to hold
until his passing.

He asked his wife to help
him by playing a little game.

Do you remember,
Mr. Miller.

You asked her to act the boss

so you could sharpen your tools

in order to get what he wanted.

(WHIRRING)

(BEEPING)

Do this for me.
It helps.

Not now. I'm eating.
Come on, do it!

What do you want me to do?
Be him.

This is silly.
It's not silly.

Offer me $55,000, no more.

How much do you want?

How much are you offering me?

$55,000.

I can't work here for a penny under 65.
I'm sorry.

Well, I can't pay you 65.

Then I can't work here.

$58,000.
65.

59.
65.

60.
65.

61.

Let me make it plain.

I cannot take the job
for under 65,

under no conditions.

Your Honors,
I would like to go directly

to the next afternoon and
show you the real encounter.

Daniel, I'm prepared
to offer $49,000.

I'll take it.

I'm going to get you
a parking place. Okay.

(BEEPS)
(WHIRRING)

Why did you cave in so fast?
I'm just curious.

Why did you accept so much
less money than you wanted?

And do it so quickly.

Here we go again with money.

Obviously, this is
all about money.

Look, I'm guilty.
I didn't make enough money. Okay?

Call me a hippie.
Send me to hell. I give up.

You keep thinking
it's about money.

But it's about fear.

Why didn't you
stand up to your boss

the way you did to your wife?

What happened in your mind?

Well, first of all,
it wasn't my wife.

It was a man with a suit.
And the suit had a odor.

And the odor said $49,000.

I like that very much.

So your nostrils told
you you were worth less?

Is that what you're saying?

The process that
a person goes through

when they're accepting
a salary is a complicated one.

You don't know all my reasons.

Anyway, we lived fine
on that money.

That money was fine.

If you wanna make it about
money, you may do so

but we're looking at fear.

What was I afraid of?

You tell me.

49 grand is a lot of money!

I have nothing more
to say at this time.

Mr. Stanley.
I'm fine.

I can't believe it.

And you didn't want to
toot your own horn.

Would you like to show
something, Mr. Miller?

I got a raise six months later.

Well, if you'd like to show
that, let us know.

Miss Foster?

Oh, Your Honors,
at this time I'd like to present

a compilation of
general misjudgments,

half of them fear-based,
half of them just stupid.

I've assembled 164 misjudgments

over a 12-year period.

(SIGHS)
(WHIRRING)

(BEEPING)

Wait! Ooh! ooh!

(HORN HONKING)

(SCREAMING)
(TIRES SCREECHING)

(HUMMING)

(GARGLING)

(EXHALES)

Congratulations.
Thanks.

(ENGINE REVVING)

(BOTH LAUGHING)

Whoa!

(CRASHING)
(CHUCKLES)

(CAT MEWS)

(INDISTINCT CONVERSATIONS)

Daniel! Hi!

All right.

Well, I can't tell you
how wonderful this is. Oh.

I'm looking forward to tomorrow.

Good night, Julia.
Good night.

Hi. I missed you.
(CHUCKLES)

Meet Sam.
Oh, hi.

Hello, Daniel.
Julia has told me a lot about you.

Really? She doesn't know
that much about me.

She could have fooled me.

Listen, I heard you had
Dick Stanley in today.

How did you know that?
Sam uses 54% of his brain.

Dick Stanley's a good man.
Quiet, but excellent.

Very quiet.

Julia…
See you tomorrow.

Yeah. Thank you.

Bye-bye.

So we know what we have to do.

We have to go to the
past lives pavilion.

Everybody talks about it.
I don't know.

Don't you want to see
who you were?

I heard some people don't like it.
Oh, you'll love it.

Plus, they have the greatest
hot dogs there. What?

Seriously,
the best hot dogs in Judgment City

are supposed to be over
by the hall records.

You really love this eating
thing, don't you?

To be able to eat
as much as you want

and never gain an ounce
and feel great? Please.

(GASPS)
Oh, wow!

Look at this!

Oh, ho!

(GASPS) Come on.
Let's get in line.

(INDISTINCT CONVERSATIONS)

This reminds me of Disneyland.

I hope we're tall enough.

(LAUGHS)

When you were on earth,

didn't you ever feel like

you might have been
other people?

Did you ever see yourself
in another life?

Never. You did?
(GASPS)

I think I did.

I think I might have been
a heavyset man at one time.

Really?
I doubt that.

You never saw yourself
as anything?

Well, one time in college
I got really stoned

and I stared into this
mirror for two hours

until I finally saw someone
who looked Chinese.

But I think it was just me squinting.
(CHUCKLES)

(CHUCKLES)

WOMAN: Please take the first
available booth on the left.

The show will begin
in 30 seconds.

(TRUMPET FANFARE)

Welcome to
the past lives pavilion.

WOMAN: Oh, my God!

In a moment you will be asked
to place your right hand

on the plate next to you.

An image of yourself in a
former life will soon appear.

When you have seen enough,

simply remove your hand
from the plate.

Since we want to be fair
and accommodate everyone,

you will be limited
to five past lives only.

Thank you.

(DINGS)

Please place your hand
on the plate now.

(HUMMING)

What the hell is this?

WOMAN: Elizabeth!
Time for supper, darling.

Be there in a moment, Mumsy.

What the hell is going on here?

(GROANING)

(YELLING)

(SCREAMING)

(GROWLING)

(SHOUTS)

(LION GROWLS)

(YELLING)

(LION ROARS)

Come on, men!
To the castle!

Oh! (LAUGHING)

(NEIGHING)

It's incredible!

Who are you?

I'm Prince Valiant!

Really?
Yeah.

JULIA: Who are you?

Dinner.

I was a prince, I was a
whaler, I was a tailor.

God! It was the most incredible
thing I've ever seen.

You were a native?

Yeah, and a dressmaker,
that's all I saw.

That's what, it's so weird,
you were a dressmaker, I was a tailor.

Isn't that interesting?
You want some?

No.

You're gonna eat the stick, too?

I can't get you out of my mind.

Tell me about it.

You know, these screenings are so
tough, and yet, when I see you,

I instantly feel okay.

That's great, right?

I don't think it has
anything to do with me.

That's what worries me.

I think you're doing it.

What? What am I doing?

I'm not sure.

But I always read that you had
to be okay with yourself first,

before you could be okay
with another person.

And I feel okay with you,

but I don't know how okay
I was with myself,

before I met you.

So maybe you're making me okay.

You're not that okay.

Okay.

All right.
What's the score?

(SIGHS) You're losing.

No.
We're tied.

Okay. Beauty.

(EXHALES) Thank you.
(GRUNTS)

You know what?
You never told me how you died.

How did you die?

I don't want to talk about it.

Why?

It's embarrassing.
Embarrassing?

What could be embarrassing?
I was hit by a bus.

(JULIA LAUGHS)

I tripped.
No.

Yes.
Seriously? You tripped?

(CHUCKLES) Yes.
On what?

We went to visit some friends
for the weekend.

Everybody wanted
to go into town,

but I wanted to stay
at the house and go swimming.

So I went outside,

tripped over the chaise lounge,

hit my head on the cement,
rolled into the pool.

What did the East German
judge give you?

(LAUGHS)

So, seriously,
did you feel anything?

Were you unconscious?
Were you scared?

I was pissed.

You died pissed.

I'm still pissed.
I was a good swimmer.

Well, swimming's only
part of the sport.

You got to negotiate
the patio furniture.

You know, in the Olympics,
they're taking that part very seriously.

The Romanians
are excellent at it.

If you make fun of me,
I'm gonna get you.

You've already got me.

JULIA: What time
do you start?

DANIEL: Early
in the morning.

I don't have to
start till 3:00,

so you want to have
dinner tomorrow night?

Actually, I thought
I'd start dating others now.

I have my eye on
this 91-year-old.

(CHUCKLING)

Well, I'll be at the
main entrance at 5:00.

I'll be there.

If you get there early,
just come to my screening room.

You can take a look
at some of my life.

I'd like that.

Okay.

So…

Good night.

Good night.

So, good night.

Yeah, good night.

Good night.

You'll sleep great.

I have three boxes of
candy waiting for me.

Oh, did they give you
those chocolate swans?

Swans?

They're cream-filled.
They're really delicious.

Swans.

No.

I think I'm just
getting breath mints.

Oh…

Okay.

Good night.

Sleep well.
Same to you.

Howard.

Oh, good morning.
Morning.

After you.

Thank you.

Now I have no attorney.

Hmm.

Gee, that's a very,
very nice outfit.

Thank you.

Do you like it here?

(SIGHS) Mr. Miller,
I'll make you a promise.

When we're all through,
if you still want to know about me,

I'll be more than
happy to tell you.

But right now,
let's concentrate on you, all right?

Good morning!

Well, well.
Look who's here.

Good morning.
I missed you.

How are you, buddy?

What do you care?

Oh, stop it.

You think I let
you down, don't you?

Where were you?
I'm just curious.

I'd tell you,
but you wouldn't understand.

Don't treat me
like a moron. Try me.

I was trapped near the
inner circle of thought.

I don't understand.
I told you.

Good morning.

Morning.
Morning.

Hi. How are you?

Good morning, everybody.

Let's begin.
Miss Foster, you're up.

Thank you, Your Honors.

This morning,

I would like to begin
in the 34th year of life.

Mr. Miller had accepted
a speaking engagement

to represent all of the West
Coast advertising agencies

in a very important speech
to the Ford Motor Company.

A situation where
if he did well,

it could have worked
wonders for his career.

Let's not make this
the end of the world, okay?

May we go to 34-7-7, please?

(BEEPING)

It's packed like sardines.
Are you ready?

What? I can't do it.
There's too many people.

I just looked. There's too many people.
I can't go out there.

You've got to.
I can't go out there.

Something has happened to me.

This is way,
way too many people.

I'm having horrible
stage fright.

I can't go out there.

Hey, you got to go out there.

A lot of people are counting on you.
Come on.

I can't do it.
I'm gonna make a fool of myself.

No, you're not.

I can't do it.
I can't do it.

Yes, you can.
My heart is racing.

I am having some sort
of an anxiety attack.

Come on.
You know this stuff.

You look great.
Let's go.

Peter, I can't think straight.

Now listen to me,
that's too many people.

I don't want to go out there.

You have to cancel this.

(KNOCKING ON DOOR)

Let's go quickly, you're on.

Um, he's having
a little bit of trouble.

Just give us
a second, all right?

Let's go. You've got
a full house. It's packed.

Let's go!

Please don't make me do this.

You'll be fine.

ANNOUNCER: Good afternoon,
ladies and gentlemen.

Would you please welcome
our speaker for today?

From Foote, Cone & Belding,
Mr. Daniel Miller.

(APPLAUSE)

I'll be right here
if you need me.

Ladies and gentlemen,
may I have your attention, please?

Nothing serious, but we have
a gas leak under this room.

Ladies and gentlemen,
we'd like you all to file out,

very orderly.

This is only for precaution.

(CROWD MURMURING)

(BEEP)

Your Honors,

I would have shown this day

to illustrate just
how brave Mr. Miller is.

With all the paying and panic and
confusion going on in his mind,

he still walked out
to that microphone.

He never said anything!

There was a gas leak!

Yes, but he never went back
and accomplished it.

He never got up in front of a
large group of people again.

Ha! Maybe he
didn't want to.

Mr. Miller accepted
that speaking engagement

with a great deal of excitement.

He wanted to be there.

If he had accomplished
that moment,

I believe that the rest
of his life would have gone

in a much better direction.
I'm positive of it.

LAWYER: You're positive of it?
This woman is wonderful!

The rest of his life
would have gone

in a much better direction?

Just incredible.

(SIGHS)

Your Honors, I'd like
to get off this scene

and move on to something that I
think we'll have a ball watching.

This is damn exciting stuff.

Daniel, where did
this scene take place?

I don't know what
you're going to show.

Oh, I'm sorry.
We're going on 31-1-9.

The snowmobile.

Oh.

Big bear.

Big bear.

Watch this, Your Honors.

Just dynamite.

(BEEPING)

(HUMMING LOUDLY)

♪ Where the buffalo roam ♪

(CHUCKLES)

Oh…

♪ And the skies ♪
♪ are all cloudy ♪

♪ All ♪

Whoo! Oh, my God!

Ahhh!

Yeow!

Oh!

(GROANING)

(SCREAMING)

Ow!

Oh! Oh!

How far did you have
to go for help?

About three miles.

You broke that leg
in two places?

DANIEL: Yes, I did.

I'm proud of you.

(WOLF HOWLS)

(WOLVES HOWLING)

(BEEP)

With no help, by himself,

with his badly broken leg,
as I've ever seen,

this man crawled
three miles to get help.

You can't be serious.
I'm sorry?

What did we just watch?
That is self-preservation.

He didn't risk his life.

He saved his life.

Oh, I see, you're not a hero
if you save your own life?

A hero?
No, you're not. No.

No one here
is accusing Mr. Miller

of not having
a survival instinct.

We're here to see if he can
overcome fear, not pain.

You don't see the fear
in this situation?

What was he afraid of?

Well, how about death,
for starters?

I hope you realize, Miss Foster,

it would be very hard

to be a brilliant public speaker

if you're lying dead
in the snow.

Mr. Miller, for the record,

you never rode a snowmobile
again, did you?

Wait a second.
Not because I was afraid,

because I hated it!

You have to believe me on this.

This has nothing to do
with fear. This is hate.

This is a rotten contraption,
Your Honors.

First of all, it heats up
like a toaster oven.

I burned the hair off my thigh

from my knee to my crotch.

Singed it right off.

Secondly, I don't know
if it was the leather-seat,

or if it was lined with fur.

But years of rotting and
drying out and getting wet…

Mine smelled like
an old sheepdog.

Thirdly, it's very, very noisy.

They don't tell you about that.

You don't find out
until about the second hour,

when you can't hear anyone.

You get off and have a snack,

and your friends
are in a silent movie.

And fourth, uh…

Pardon the expression,
but your balls vibrate

for three weeks afterwards.

I'm very proud of you.

Very, very good day.
Very emotional day.

What are you gonna do tonight?

I'm gonna see this woman.

Julia?

How did you know her name?

Still don't get
the big brain bit, do you?

I'll see you tomorrow.
Feel good,

you did very well.
See you.

(SIRENS WAILING)

Watch.
Here it comes again.

GIRL: Mommy!

Look at her go.

(HORNS HONKING)

(DOG BARKING)

Going back for the cat
is wonderful.

What kind of cat was it, Julia?

Persian.

Oh. I love Persian.

(BEEP)

I'm sorry for the delay.
I just had to see that again.

Oh, that's all right.
It's spectacular.

I think that's all for today.

We'll meet
one more time tomorrow,

mostly for enjoyment's sake.

Let's make it around 1 o'clock.

Hi!

Great job.

Great.

Daniel, nice to see
you again. How are you?

I'm fine.

Good. You have a good time tonight.
Thanks.

I will see you tomorrow at 1:00?
Okay.

Bye-bye.

Listen, Sam told me about this
amazing Italian restaurant.

What do you say?

Very exciting stuff
up there, really.

It was like watching
a Mutual of Omaha commercial.

You're just jealous.

You'll never know how much.

(♫ CLASSICAL MUSIC PLAYING)

Oh, my God!

Those portions are gigantic.

Mmm. I'm so hungry.

The residents love this place.
This is supposed to be

the best resident food
in the area.

Really? Good clumps, huh?
Mmm-hmm.

Enjoy your meal.
Thank you.

So what was your favorite
food in the whole world.

Turkey with stuffing. Yeah.

Really? I couldn't eat turkey.
Why not?

Well, when I was a kid I had one as a
pet, and I named it.

(CHUCKLES)

And you can't eat
something you've named.

I wish someone had
told me that years ago.

I would have named ice cream.

Do you eat meat?

Sometimes. Not often.
How about you?

I like fish.

Yeah, me, too.
What kind?

Well, salmon,
and I like the kind

that live near the nuclear
reactors, in the rocks.

I forget their name.

(GIGGLES) Glow fish?

That's right. They'd light up
your house when you cook them.

How are you? How was
your screening today?

Very, very good, thank you.

Some fine wine for yourselves?

Yes, please.
What's your name?

Eduardo.
How are you, sir?

I'm fine.

You're going to eat a lot
with us tonight?

Yes. What do you recommend,
Eduardo?

You like pasta?
Very much.

I'm gonna bring you three pounds of
it, the best you ever tasted.

You're gonna love it.

What about you, my friend?
You like shrimp?

Um, yeah.

We can make them so fresh,

they crawl up
onto the plate themselves.

Aren't they high in cholesterol?

I don't know what
you're talking about,

but they're high in everything.

Don't worry about it.

I'll be right back.

(LAUGHS)

Cheers.

You have a Jacuzzi in your room?

No.

You do?

No. Not in my room.

No. It's in the bathroom.

And it might not
even be a Jacuzzi.

Actually, I think it's
just holes in the tub.

That's very sweet.
You don't have to protect my feelings.

I can take it.
If you have a Jacuzzi,

I'm happy for you.
(GIGGLES)

Okay. I do.

I use it every night.
It's just wonderful.

I'm happy for you.

I love it.
A lot of bubbles?

(GIGGLES)

Ah, here we are.

Oh, you're going to love this!

Ooh!

And you are going to love this!

Oh!

There's 30 shrimps in there

and there's 30 more
where that came from!

Wow! This looks delicious.

You like broccoli?

Yes.

You like it
with a lot of cheese?

Yes.

(LAUGHS)
That's my girl!

What about you, eh?

DANIEL: Um,
maybe just a touch.

You got it.

DANIEL: That's fine.

How many days you looking at?

Nine.

Ooh.

Do you like pie?

I love pie.

I like you.

I wanna bring you nine pies
to take with you.

A pie for every day, eh?

I don't want to take any pies.

Hey, hey. It's my pleasure.
Don't worry about it.

They'll keep.
Don't do it.

(SCOFFS)

Dig in, eh?

All right. But don't bring me anything.
This is fine.

Mmm. Great.

Good?
Mm-hmm.

Oh, my God!

(GULPS)

Oh, my God.

It's unbelievable.

(WHISPERING)
My prosecutor just sat down.

Look.
Don't look!

I can't eat here.
What are you talking about?

You're just eating dinner.

No, I'm not. I'm having 30 shrimps.
I'm a pig.

Everybody eats like this here.

Yes, but everyone
isn't having her watching.

She'll have a tiny
resident portion

and I'm eating a fishing boat.

(LAUGHS)

How are you?

Please. Let's leave.

No. You're being silly.

You're just eating.

Okay. You're right.

That's right.

(SLURPING)

Where's that going to end?

(LAUGHS) Funny.

We're having fun.
Well, that's the important thing.

(LAUGHS)
See what's happening now?

This woman's looking at that.

What?
This is causing

Don't look!
Don't look!

Back, back! Back!

(GIGGLES)

(SLURPING)

Mmm.

Okay.
Suck that up.

(LAUGHING)

(CONTINUES LAUGHING)

It's long!

Bite down now, please.

Please bite.

Bite. Bite.

We're through.

This makes me very nervous.

I'm going to go
to the ladies' room.

I pray to God, when I get back,

you've changed.

Hi.

You're Daniel's
prosecutor, right?

Yes.

I just want you to know
I think he's wonderful.

Hi.
JULIA: Hi.

What's your name?

Julia.

Very pretty name.

Martin…

What? What did I say?
Nice to meet you both.

So you don't forget,
I bring these to you.

Now you got nine pies in here.

You think that's gonna be
enough or you want more?

I didn't want these.

Hey, you told me
to make these pies.

No, sir. I did not.

You said that.
No.

Yes, you did.

I have no place
to put these boxes.

Please, you're embarrassing me!

You shy.

I'm going to bring you
some steaks.

No steaks!
No steaks!

(MOANS)

What's going to happen to you?

Did Sam tell you anything?

He said I wouldn't come back
to the hotel after tomorrow.

That's all I know.

I have to tell you something.

I know you think
I've got it all together.

You do!

Not quite.

One of the things I do
know how to do really well

is make things work, you know.

I can take a situation
and just make it okay.

I've always been
able to do that.

But it's work.

And this…

This isn't.

I don't know what this is,

but it's…

Well, it's…

Effortless. (CHUCKLES)
Effortless.

I know. I know.

And I've never, ever,
ever had that before.

Tell me about it!

I didn't think it was ever
going to happen to me.

So, great…

Where do we find it?
In the pit stop.

Yeah.
Thanks, God.

Well, better this
than nothing, I guess.

I guess.

Want to spend the night with me?

More than anything
else in the world.

Oh, good. Come on. Let's go.

Wait.

I don't think I can.

I don't think I should.

Why?

Because…

This is already better

than any sex I've ever had…

Ever.

And, I don't want to
screw it up…

Literally.

How do you know
what's going to happen?

I don't. I don't.

Let's say it's the
most amazing thing

that ever was.

Then what am I gonna do?

By the looks of things,

we're not going
to the same place,

so I'll just have to miss it
forever and ever and ever?

What if it's not so good?

Then I won't be able
to fantasize about it.

I love you.

Oh, Julia.

Oh…

If I had a fire scene
like you had today,

I would feel differently.
I'm sure.

I'd stay here.
I'd never leave.

But I've been defending myself
so hard these last few days,

and I just don't want to
be judged anymore.

I have this wonderful
feeling inside of me,

but I'm af…

I'm just tired of being judged.

It's okay.

I'm going to miss you.

I'm going to miss you so much.

I love you, Daniel.

Oh, Julia.

I'll miss you.

Oh, Julia.

Oh…

Okay. I should go.

Okay.

Okay.

WOMAN: Yes, Mr. Miller?

Can you get me the Majestic
Hotel, please?

Hold on, sir.

MAN: Majestic Hotel.

Yes. Julia…

My God.
I don't know her last name.

Excuse me, sir?

I've fallen in love with
a woman in your hotel,

and I don't know her last name.

Let's see. What's
her first name?

Julia.

We have two Julias.

Both have do not disturbs on.

Can you ring through, please?
It's very important.

No, sir. I'm not allowed
to do that.

But it's very important.

I'm sorry, sir.

Can I leave a message, then?

I guess for both of them.

Go ahead, sir.

Tell them both that I love
them more than life itself

and I've never met
anybody like them

and I'll miss them
forever and ever.

Is that all, sir?

Yeah. That's all.

Thank you.

(PHONE CLICKS)

DIAMOND: Has Mr. Miller overcome his
fears, Your Honors?

I believe that
my final summation scene

will prove to you that he has.

Mr. Miller,
your middle 30s

were not particularly
good for you, were they?

No.

A bad divorce left you with
virtually nothing financially.

You had about $9,000
to your name, correct?

Yes, sir.

Months before your divorce,

you and your wife had
purchased tickets to Hong Kong.

You were going to go together,

but after the separation,
she cashed hers in.

What did you do with yours?

I used it.

He used it.

With only $9,000 to his name,

with his life in a rut,

Mr. Miller didn't do
the safe thing.

He could've
cashed in that ticket.

But Mr. Miller said, "The hell with it.
I'm going to Hong Kong."

Now that alone in my
books takes a lot of guts,

but, Your Honors,
it just begins there.

Let us go to 36-9-16.

This is Los Angeles
International Airport.

You're in seat 41B.

B?
Mmm-hmm.

Between A and C?

Yes, it is.

I'm sitting between people
all the way to Asia?

Yes, you are.

Is coach completely full?

Oh, yes.

Is there any space left
in first class?

We have one seat left.

What is the price difference?

Round trip?

It's an additional $3,194.

I'll take it.

Your Honors, this man just
spent ⅓ of his life savings

to be a little more comfortable.

What does that say to you?

As stressed out as he was,
as crazy as his life was at that moment,

somewhere inside of him,
that little boy cried out,

"I need this. Don't worry about the money.
We'll get it back.

"Be nice to me!"

And he was.

Your Honors,
I feel Mr. Miller is sufficiently past

the fears that would keep him

from becoming a remarkable
citizen of the universe.

I wholeheartedly recommend
full onward movement.

I rest.

JUDGE: Miss Foster,
you're up.

Your Honors,

at this point, I would like to
show my final summation scene.

Proceed.

My scene takes place
not there, but here.

What?

What're we doing?
We're showing something from here?

Yes, we are.

I was told we're not
doing that anymore.

No one told you that,
Mr. Diamond.

What are we seeing?

Something from last night.

Mr. Miller,
please watch this,

and tell me what
you were feeling.

Last night?

(BEEPING)

JULIA: Want to spend
the night with me?

DANIEL: More than anything
else in the world.

JULIA: Good.
Come on. Let's go.

DANIEL: I don't think I can.
I don't think I should.

JULIA: Why?

If I had a fire scene
like you had today,

I would feel differently.
I'm sure.

I'd stay here.
I'd never leave.

But I've been defending myself
so hard these last few days.

And I just don't
wanna be judged anymore.

I have this wonderful
feeling inside of me,

but I'm af…

I'm just tired of being judged.

You genuinely feel for this
woman, don't you, Mr. Miller?

Yes.

Why didn't you stay
with her last night?

I was afraid.

A little louder.

I was afraid.

I rest.

Well, this is a new one on me.

Have sex with somebody
and move right on.

Is that the way
it works, Miss Foster?

I don't think you're
being very understanding

about the world Mr. Miller
just came from.

It's filled with problems
you no longer have.

Deadly diseases, confusing
identities, changing attitudes.

How do you know Mr. Miller he wasn't
worried about getting a disease?

Were you worried about getting a
disease, Mr. Miller?

I didn't think
she had a disease.

You didn't think.
But you didn't know.

We're getting off the point.

We've never been near the point!

You're getting him both ways.

When he's courageous
and follows it up

with something you don't
like, you show the follow-up.

When there aren't
any follow-ups,

you blame him
for not having any.

This is an example
of something he wanted to do

and he didn't because
he was afraid.

And this was just last night.

DIAMOND: May I tell you what
I think we just watched here?

I think we just watched a man
who was caring

of another
human being's feelings.

He didn't know what this
experience would do to her,

so he was careful.

You blame him for this.
I praise him for it.

You call it fear.
I call it thoughtfulness.

To be caring about
someone else's feelings.

I'm sorry, but I hope we
all can have that quality.

Thank you.

Mr. Miller, your final
summation, please.

(SIGHS)

Well, I think it was
thoughtfulness.

And I would like to say
something about this disease.

Your Honors, I didn't think

that Julia had a disease,

but you must understand
that right now on earth,

they're filling our heads with
all these terrible things.

They keep telling you
over and over

that you're not just sleeping
with one person.

You're sleeping with everyone
they've ever slept with.

Now that I've been
to the past lives pavilion,

that could be
20,000 to 30,000 people.

(CHUCKLES)

As far as the rest
of my life is concerned,

I truly believe
I turned the corner.

I know I had a few fears left,

but I was taken very young.

I feel I could have
conquered them.

So if you see fit to let me
move forward,

I promise you
I will do the best I can.

I'll work very hard,
I'll do whatever is required of me.

I'll do the best I can.
Honestly. I will.

I'll do the best I can.

Is that all,
Mr. Miller?

Yeah.

But please just know that I'll…

Do the best you can?

Hmm.

Good.

That's all, everybody.
Thank you.

It was nice to
meet you. Good luck.

Well, that's it.
Let's go back to my office and wait.

We'll know in 30 minutes.

Judgment's in.

It's early.

Is that good?

Not good or bad.

They don't waste any time.

They must need the hotel space.

So what do you think
of our fair city?

We do a pretty good job here.

How was that Italian restaurant?

What does it say?

You're going back.

Can I say something?

Just because
they're sending you back,

doesn't mean that they're right.

They can make a mistake.

You shouldn't let others
get to you like this.

Just follow what's in here.

Come on. I'll take you
to the station.

MAN: (OVER PA) Trams 7 and
8 to onward destinations.

This is something.
I never get over it.

The organization is amazing.

All these different
trams going to

all these different places.

WOMAN: (OVER PA) All
tunnels now operational.

These are yours,

your boarding card, your various I.D.
pieces,

all the things
you're going to need.

You're not going to
remember any of this.

So don't worry.

You won't kick yourself forever.

Take the opportunities
when they come. Okay?

WOMAN: Passengers going
back to earth,

please board trams on your left.

Passengers moving onward,
board trams on your right.

Well, this is it.

Good luck, kid.

I've got a lot of faith in you.

FEMALE ATTENDANT:
I can take that here, sir.

There you go. You keep those,
and follow the yellow line.

WOMAN:
All trams now operational.

MALE ATTENDANT:
I'll take those, sir.

MAN: Trams 7 and 8
to onward destinations,

final boarding, please.

Right here, sir.

WOMAN: All personnel,
please prepare for departure.

JULIA: Daniel!

What the hell are you doing?

Sit down right now.
You're gonna hurt yourself.

(SECOND ALARM SOUNDS)

Aah!

(HORN HONKS)

Julia!

Julia!

Julia!

Daniel!

(ELECTRICITY CRACKLES)
(SCREAMS)

Aah! Daniel!

I love you!
Oh, my God.

I tried to call,
but I didn't know your last name.

I won't let you go!
I won't let you go!

Help! Help!

Whoa!

Aah! Hold on!

Hold on. Just please hold on.
Hold on.

I love you.

I love you.

Open this up!

Damn it!
Open it up!

JULIA: Please,
open the door!

Julia!
Wait for me!

Wait for me!

Brave enough for you?

JULIA: Please! Open
the door, please!

DANIEL: Julia!

(INAUDIBLE)

Julia!

Let him go.
