THE PLANE! THE PLANE!

TATTOO, IS SOMETHING THE MATTER?

MY COUSIN HUGO, HE'S IN THE HOSPITAL.

OH, THAT'S TERRIBLE. WHAT'S WRONG?

HIS GIRLFRIEND. WHEN SHE FOUND OUT HE WAS MARRIED,

SHE THREW HIM OVER.

BUT WHY WOULD HIS GIRLFRIEND THROWING HIM OVER

PUT HIM IN THE HOSPITAL?

BECAUSE SHE THREW HIM OVER A CLIFF.

SMILES, EVERYONE, SMILES!

♪♪

WHO IS SHE, BOSS?

SISTER MARY THERESA.

YOU MEAN SHE'S A NUN?

BUT HOW COME SHE'S DRESSED LIKE THAT?

BECAUSE, FOR THIS WEEKEND, SHE WANTS TO BE JUST MARY HOYT,

THE WOMAN SHE WAS BEFORE SHE ENTERED THE CONVENT

AND BECAME A SISTER ALMOST SEVEN YEARS AGO.

SHE DOES NOT WANT TO BE A NUN ANYMORE?

EVEN SHE IS NOT SURE, TATTOO.

EVER SINCE HER BEST FRIEND, ALSO A NUN, DIED LAST MONTH

AT THE AGE OF 35.

SISTER MARY THERESA'S WONDERING

IF SHE WAS EVER MEANT TO BE A NUN AT ALL.

AND NOW, NEXT WEEK, SHE'S SUPPOSED TO TAKE HER FINAL VOWS,

VOWS THAT WILL LAST A LIFETIME.

BUT, BOSS, HOW CAN WE HELP HER?

BY HELPING HER MAKE HER CHOICE VERY CLEAR.

YOU SEE, SEVERAL YEARS AGO SHE MET A YOUNG MAN,

A YOUNG MAN WHO DOESN'T EVEN REMEMBER HER,

BUT THERE WAS SOMETHING SPECIAL ABOUT HIM,

SOMETHING THAT, IF THERE WERE EVER A MAN SHE COULD LOVE,

BE A WIFE TO, HE COULD BE THAT MAN.

CAN YOU DO THAT, BOSS?

CAN YOU BRING THAT MAN HERE?

HE'S ALREADY ON THE ISLAND, TATTOO.

THEY WILL MEET THIS WEEKEND, AND SISTER MARY THERESA

WILL HAVE TO MAKE HER DECISION...

HIM... OR THE CHURCH.

MR. FELIX BIRDSONG, A CERTIFIED PUBLIC ACCOUNTANT

ALL THE WAY FROM WAUKEGAN, ILLINOIS.

WHAT'S HIS FANTASY, BOSS?

OH, ONE SHARED BY MILLIONS OF RED-BLOODED MEN

THROUGHOUT THE WORLD, TATTOO.

MR. BIRDSONG, AN AVID MOVIE FAN ALL HIS LIFE,

WISHES TO BECOME

CASTING DIRECTOR FOR A MAJOR MOTION PICTURE.

YOU MEAN WITH ALL THESE BEAUTIFUL STARLETS

CHASING AFTER HIM TO GET THE PART?

OH, MUCH MORE THAN THAT, MY FRIEND.

WHAT DO YOU MEAN, BOSS?

WELL, YOU SEE, THE NAME OF THE MOVIE MR. BIRDSONG IS CASTING

IS "THE MOST BEAUTIFUL GIRL IN THE WORLD."

IT WILL BE HIS RESPONSIBILITY TO DECIDE

WHICH OF THE GORGEOUS 20 FINALISTS ALREADY ASSEMBLED HERE

BEST BEFITS THE TITLE.

DO YOU THINK HE NEEDS AN ASSISTANT?

OH, I KNOW HER!

IT'S MISS GARWOOD, THE FAMOUS NEWS LADY ON TV.

THAT'S RIGHT.

IS SHE HERE FOR A BIG AWARD SHOW?

WELL, THAT'S WHAT MISS GARWOOD WOULD LIKE THE WORLD TO BELIEVE.

IN FACT, IT'S ALREADY BEEN ANNOUNCED

SHE'S WON THE MOST PRESTIGIOUS HONOR.

BUT THERE IS SOMETHING ELSE?

THERE MOST CERTAINLY IS, TATTOO.

YOU SEE, MISS GARWOOD WON HER AWARD FOR AN EXPOSE

OF SATANIC CULTS CALLED THE BLACK MASS.

SINCE THAT PROGRAM WAS AIRED A YEAR AGO,

THREE MEN VERY CLOSE TO HER HAVE ALL DIED IN TRAGIC ACCIDENTS,

AND SHE BLAMES HERSELF.

YOU MEAN SHE'S A JINX?

CURSED IS THE WORD THE HIGH PRIEST OF THE CULT

USED AGAINST HER.

BUT, BOSS, IF THIS HAS SOMETHING TO DO

WITH THE SUPERNATURAL, HOW CAN WE HELP HER?

MY DEAR GUESTS, I AM MR. ROARKE, YOUR HOST.

WELCOME TO FANTASY ISLAND!

SISTER? OH, I MEAN MISS HOYT.

I HOPE YOU'RE ENJOYING YOURSELF.

YES, I AM, THANK YOU.

OH, I'M VERY GLAD.

I MUST ADMIT, I NEVER EXPECTED

TO FIND A SHRINE OF SAINT THERESA HERE.

AH, ON FANTASY ISLAND, MANY THINGS ARE UNEXPECTED.

I'M BEGINNING TO BELIEVE THAT.

YOU SEE, IN A WAY IT'S ONLY FITTING THAT SHE'D BE HERE NOW.

OH?

WHEN I WAS A LITTLE GIRL,

I READ THERESA'S AUTOBIOGRAPHY.

I THINK IT WAS THAT, MORE THAN ANYTHING ELSE,

THAT MADE ME WANT TO BE A NUN.

REALLY?

YES. SHE WAS ONLY 16 WHEN SHE ENTERED THE CONVENT,

AND SHE WAS VERY FRAIL,

SO SHE KNEW SHE'D NEVER BE ABLE TO DO THINGS LIKE JOAN OF ARC

OR BUILD CHURCHES. SO, INSTEAD SHE OFFERED HERSELF

TO THE BABY JESUS AS HIS PLAYTHING.

NOT AN EXPENSIVE TOY THAT CHILDREN WOULD BE AFRAID TO PLAY WITH

BUT SOMETHING OF NO VALUE, LIKE A TOY BALL,

SOMETHING TO THROW TO THE GROUND

OR KICK WITH HIS FOOT

OR LEAVE IN A CORNER AND FORGET.

OR PRESS TO HIS HEART.

I'M SORRY. I DIDN'T MEAN TO GO ON.

YOU MUST HAVE COME HERE TO TALK ABOUT MY FANTASY.

THAT IS, IF IT'S REALLY POSSIBLE.

OH, IT'S MORE THAN POSSIBLE.

THE YOUNG MAN YOU WROTE ME ABOUT IS ALREADY IN THE ISLAND.

YOU'LL MEET HIM BEFORE THE WEEKEND IS UP.

THAT'S AMAZING!

WELL, I WASN'T EVEN ABLE TO TELL YOU HIS LAST NAME.

WELL, WHEN YOU TOLD ME HIS FIRST NAME WAS COLIN,

AND HE HAD DONE VETERINARY WORK AT THE CONVENT FARM,

IT WASN'T TOO DIFFICULT TO TRACE HIM.

OH, YOU MUST BE INTERESTED TO KNOW

THAT HE'S BECOME QUITE NOTED IN HIS FIELD.

ZOOS AND ANIMAL PRESERVES FROM ALL OVER THE WORLD

CALL ON HIM AS A CONSULTANT.

THAT'S WONDERFUL.

YES.

DOES HE KNOW ABOUT ME?

OH, NO, NO, NO, NO, NO. IT'S JUST AS YOU ASKED.

HE HAS NO IDEA HE'S INVOLVED IN A FANTASY.

WHAT?

DID I SAY SOMETHING FUNNY?

NO, IT'S NOT YOU.

IT'S JUST WHAT YOU MUST THINK OF ME.

THE PEOPLE WHO TOLD ME ABOUT YOU

SAID YOU'RE A GOOD MAN.

SO, I'D AT LEAST LIKE FOR YOU TO KNOW

WHY I QUESTION MY VOCATION AFTER SO LONG.

THAT'S NOT NECESSARY.

YOU SEE, I WANTED TO BE JUST LIKE THERESA,

JUST TO BE A PLAYTHING FOR THE CHILD JESUS,

SOMETHING HE COULD USE OR LEAVE ALONE.

BUT HE NEVER DID.

NOT IN SEVEN YEARS WAS I ABLE TO ACCOMPLISH FOR HIM.

DON'T YOU SEE, AFTER THAT LONG OF NOT BEING USED,

YOU BEGIN TO WONDER IF GOD REALLY WANTED YOU THERE AT ALL

AND IF MAYBE IT ISN'T TIME TO START A NEW LIFE.

I'M SORRY.

AH, MR. BIRDSONG.

OH, OH! HELLO, MR. ROARKE!

ARE YOU ENJOYING YOURSELF?

OH, I SURE AM. I'VE NEVER SEEN

SO MANY PRETTY GIRLS IN ALL MY LIFE.

UH, WHEN DOES MY FANTASY BEGIN?

BUT YOUR FANTASY HAS ALREADY BEGUN.

ALL THESE LOVELY YOUNG LADIES ARE FINALISTS

FOR THE STARRING ROLE IN THE MOVIE

THAT WERE SELECTED FROM OVER 1,000 CANDIDATES

FROM ALL OVER THE WORLD.

IF YOU NEED AN ASSISTANT, I WILL BE VERY PLEASED TO DO SO.

AH, MR. SID GORDON, YOUR PRODUCER

AND HIS ASSISTANT, MISS JEAN ARDEN.

MAY I INTRODUCE...

YOU DON'T HAVE TO TELL ME

THIS IS MY NEW CASTING DIRECTOR, BARNEY BIRDSONG.

OH, FELIX. THE NAME IS FELIX BIRDSONG.

OF COURSE, IT IS.

UH, I'M SORRY I DIDN'T GET YOUR NAME.

JEAN. JEAN ARDEN.

JEAN'S MY EXEC SECRETARY.

CONSIDER HER ON LOAN TO YOU WHENEVER NEEDED.

OH, THANK YOU, MR. GORDON.

DID YOU KNOW I'VE SEEN EVERY PICTURE YOU EVER PRODUCED?

GOOD BOY.

OH, HERE COMES ONE OF OUR POTENTIAL BACKERS.

UH, MR. FELIX BIRDSONG,

ALLOW ME TO PRESENT MR. HAMMERHEAD HARRIS.

MR. HARRIS WAS WRESTLING CHAMPION OF THE WORLD.

I GOT ME A BUNDLE TO MAYBE INVEST

IN THIS HERE MOVING PICTURE.

UH, MR. BIRDSONG IS THE CASTING DIRECTOR I TOLD YOU ABOUT,

THE NEW BREED OF CASTING DIRECTOR, NOT HOLLYWOOD JADED

BUT FRESH FROM THE HEARTLAND OF AMERICA.

YOU FOLKS WON'T MIND IF I BORROW FELIX FOR A FEW MINUTES?

SOME MORE OF MY FINANCIAL ANGELS I WANT HIM TO MEET.

OH, UH, GENTS, I'D LIKE YOU TO MEET

MY NEW CASTING DIRECTOR.

FELIX, THIS IS SHEIKH HAMEEL HABIB

AND BIG BILLY TIDMAN.

HOW DO YOU DO?

IF YOU PROVE TO BE GOOD AT THIS,

PERHAPS WE CAN DO SOME BUSINESS LATER.

I'M THINKING OF RESTOCKING MY HAREM.

OH. OH, REALLY?

OH, WELL, SURE.

I'LL BE GLAD TO...

LADIES AND GENTS, YOUR ATTENTION, PLEASE.

I'M PROUD TO ANNOUNCE THAT SID GORDON, THAT'S ME,

PULLED OFF WHAT THAT DIOGENES DUDE COULDN'T.

I FOUND ME AN HONEST MAN, AND I NOW WOULD LIKE

TO PRESENT HIM TO YOU, MY NEW CASTING DIRECTOR,

THE MAN WHO'S GOING TO BE CHOOSING

THE MOST BEAUTIFUL GIRL IN THE WORLD,

FELIX BIRDSONG.

IN THE UNITY OF UNHOLY FELLOWSHIP,

WE PRAISE AND HONOR FIRST LUCIFER

AND BEELZEBUB, PRINCE OF EARTH

AND ANGEL OF DESTRUCTION.

WE CALL THY DREADFUL MINIONS

FOR FULFILLMENT OF OUR DESIRES AND DESTRUCTION OF OUR ENEMIES.

LEVIATHAN READS THE REVELATION,

DEMON OF LUST...

HOST OF HELL...

BE STRENGTHENED IN MIND, BODY AND WILL.

THE CELEBRANT OF THIS BLACK MASS OPENLY WORSHIPS SATAN,

WHOM THEY CONSIDER TO BE THE REAL RULER OF THIS WORLD.

LIKE CHILDREN, THEY ASK THE DEVIL TO BLESS

THEIR SELF-INDULGENT WHIM AND TO DESTROY THEIR ENEMY.

WHY THEY WOULD ACCEPT THE POWER AND PROMISES OF ONE

WHO'S ALREADY BEEN KNOWN AS THE PRINCE OF LIARS

IS BEYOND ME, AND WHO, IF ALL THE ANCIENT WRITINGS

ARE TO BE BELIEVED, HAS ALWAYS BEEN MOST MERCILESS

TO THOSE WHO SERVE HIM MOST FAITHFULLY.

THIS IS JANE GARWOOD, LUCIFER'S TEMPLE,

SAN FRANCISCO, CALIFORNIA.

IT'S VERY INTERESTING.

BUT VERY SCARY.

AFTER THE PROGRAM WAS AIRED,

THE HIGH PRIEST WAS ARRESTED

AND LATER CONVICTED OF FRAUD.

ONE NIGHT HE PHONED ME, RANTED LIKE A MANIC,

SAID I'D SLANDERED THEM AND THEIR GOD,

AND THEN I'D PAY FOR IT.

I LAUGHED AT HIM UNTIL...

THIS WAS THE FIRST GENTLEMAN TO SUFFER HARM?

YES. JIM. JIM COWELL.

WE'D JUST GOTTEN ENGAGED TWO WEEKS BEFORE THE PROGRAM.

THE POLICE SAID HE JUMPED FROM HIS HOTEL WINDOW,

THEN THREE MONTHS LATER PAUL KENDALL, MY PRODUCER,

HE WAS KILLED. HIS CAR WENT OFF THE BIG SUR BRIDGE.

WE NEVER EVEN FOUND HIS BODY.

I LOVED HIM, TOO, LIKE MY OWN BROTHER.

WELL, HE DISCOVERED ME A COUPLE OF YEARS AGO

WHEN I WAS JUST AN AMBITIOUS SECRETARY IN THE NEWSROOM.

I SEE.

BURT WYNN.

HE DROWNED FOUR MONTHS AGO WHILE SCUBA DIVING.

I WAS WILLING TO BELIEVE THE FIRST TWO WERE ACCIDENTS,

AND I WAS BEGINNING TO LIKE HIM SERIOUSLY WHEN...

OH, WHAT'S THE USE OF TALKING ABOUT ALL OF THIS?

I'M A JINX. EVERYONE'S BEEN CALLING ME THAT,

AND THAT'S WHAT I AM.

PLEASE, MISS GARWOOD.

I CAN'T ALLOW YOU TO JUDGE YOURSELF SO HARSHLY.

HOW MUCH MORE PROOF DO YOU NEED?

THREE MEN ARE DEAD BECAUSE OF ME.

EVERY ONE I LOVE OR TOUCH GETS KILLED.

THERE ARE MANY THINGS WE CANNOT UNDERSTAND.

IF THERE IS SOME FORCE OF EVIL PLAYING YOU,

THEN TO STOP IT WE MUST THROW IT OUT.

BUT HOW?

WITH THE PROPER BAIT.

THERE IS A MAN HERE ON THE ISLAND WHO,

STARTING THIS AFTERNOON, WILL ACT AS YOUR SUITOR.

YOU SEE? HE'LL TAKE YOU DANCING, RIDING, ON MOONLIGHT STROLLS.

ALL YOU HAVE TO DO IS PRETEND TO FALL IN LOVE WITH HIM.

BUT HE WOULD BE PLACING HIMSELF IN GREAT DANGER.

YOUR FANTASY WAS TO FIND OUT IF YOU ARE A JINX.

I KNOW OF NO OTHER WAY.

WHO IS THIS MAN?

I.

OH, NO, MR. ROARKE. I CAN'T ALLOW YOU TO DO THAT.

ALLOW ME? MISS GARWOOD, THIS IS FANTASY ISLAND,

MY ISLAND, AND HERE I DO WHAT I THINK IS BEST.

IF YOU ARE EVER TO BE RID OF THIS CURSE,

WE MUST DO THIS.

TRUST ME. WE GIVE EVIL ITS GREATEST POWER

THROUGH OUR BELIEF IN IT.

ALL RIGHT.

NOW, I SUGGEST YOU GO TO YOUR BUNGALOW

AND UNPACK. WE'LL STOP AND SEE THE PREPARATIONS

FOR THE AWARD CEREMONIES, AND THEN

I THINK IT MIGHT BE A NICE DAY FOR A RIDE.

THANK YOU. NOT AT ALL.

BOSS, I'M SCARED.

YOU'RE SETTING YOURSELF UP TO GET KILLED!

OH, TATTOO. DON'T TELL ME

YOU BELIEVE IN THE CURSE, TOO.

I'LL TRY NOT TO, BUT WHAT IF SOMETHING HAPPENS TO YOU?

WHAT WILL I DO WITHOUT YOU?

I APPRECIATE THE CONCERN, MY FRIEND.

I'LL DO MY BEST TO AVOID UNDUE DANGER.

SOMEBODY CAN BRIEF ME LATER ON THE ORDER OF EVENTS, OKAY?

I'M GOING HORSEBACK RIDING.

MR. ROARKE SAID HE'D SHOW ME THE ISLAND.

SEE THAT?

NEW BOYFRIEND ALREADY.

ONE MORE DEAD, AND THE TV RATINGS

WILL GO RIGHT THROUGH THE ROOF AGAIN.

NO, NO, NOT THAT WAY, PLEASE.

WHY NOT?

EVERY PLACE HAS ITS

DARK SECRETS, AND FANTASY ISLAND IS NO EXCEPTION.

MANY, MANY YEARS AGO, SOME OF THE ANCIENT TRIBES

PRACTICED WITCHCRAFT, PERHAPS EVEN HUMAN SACRIFICE,

IN THAT CLEARING.

COME. THERE ARE MUCH MORE CHARMING PLACES ON THE ISLAND

TO SHOW YOU.

YOU ARE UNDOUBTEDLY THE MOST COMFORTING MAN

I'VE EVER KNOWN, AND I MIGHT ADD IF YOU LIKE,

HANDSOME, CHARMING...

AND YOU ARE UNDOUBTEDLY, I'M AFRAID, MISS GARWOOD,

A WOMAN VERY GIFTED IN THE USE OF KIND ADJECTIVES.

NO, NO. OH, YES.

OH, LOOK.

OH, HE'S BEAUTIFUL,

AND HE'S SO TAME.

PERHAPS BECAUSE HE KNOWS WHAT YOU SHOULD.

ON FANTASY ISLAND, YOU HAVE NOTHING TO FEAR, MISS GARWOOD.

NOTHING.

THIS WILL BE YOUR OFFICE.

WOW, IT'S, UH...

IT'S KINDA DIFFERENT.

WELL, CASTING DIRECTORS AREN'T SO SUBTLE NOWADAYS.

BESIDES, ANY STARLET KNOWS HOW THE GAME IS PLAYED.

REALLY? MM-HMM.

LISTEN, MAYBE YOU OUGHT TO TELL ME, UH...

YOU KNOW, GIVE ME A FEW POINTERS, HUH?

HONEY, ALL YOU HAVE TO REMEMBER IS THAT YOU'RE THE CASTING DIRECTOR

WITH THE POWER TO MAKE OR BREAK CAREERS.

YEAH, GUESS THAT'S RIGHT.

YOU KNOW, BACK HOME IN WAUKEGAN, I GO TO AT LEAST

FIVE MOVIES EVERY WEEK, SOMETIMES TWICE IN ONE DAY!

I'D GIVE ANYTHING TO BE IN SHOWBIZ.

SAY, TELL ME ABOUT SOME OF THE STARS YOU'VE WORKED WITH.

YOU KNOW, THE REAL INSIDE STUFF?

UH, MR. BIRDSONG, FELIX,

FOR THIS WEEKEND YOU ARE IN SHOWBIZ.

NOW, WHY DON'T YOU GET YOURSELF ORGANIZED,

AND I'LL START FUNNELING IN THE CANDIDATES, OKAY?

HERE, GUYS. COME ON.

COME ON.

OH, MY GOSH!

DON'T BE AFRAID.

SHE WON'T HARM YOU.

SHE'S JUST BEING VERY RUDE.

I MEAN, OBVIOUSLY WHAT SHE WANTED WAS THE POPCORN.

NAUGHTY GIRL.

AREN'T YOU ASHAMED OF YOURSELF?

WELL, AT LEAST EAT IT OVER HERE.

COME ON. I, I... VERY SORRY. COME ON.

YOU STAY HERE NOW. YOU STAY HERE.

GOOD GIRL.

I'M SORRY SHE FRIGHTENED YOU,

BUT SHE JUST SEEMED TO GET AWAY FROM ME.

SHE WOULDN'T HAVE HARMED YOU, THOUGH.

DO YOU OFTEN TAKE WALKS WITH GORILLAS?

ORANGUTAN. GERTRUDE'S AN ORANGUTAN.

THERE'S A BIG DIFFERENCE,

AND HER NAME WASN'T ALWAYS GERTRUDE.

I RENAMED HER AFTER AN OLD GREAT AUNT OF MINE.

I SEE.

AND THE HAT, DID THAT COME FROM YOUR GREAT AUNT, TOO?

OH, NO, NO. I BOUGHT THAT FOR HER.

SEE, I'M A VET. VETERINARIAN?

AND I SORT OF SPECIALIZE IN EXOTIC ANIMALS.

GERTRUDE BELONGED TO A ZOO IN ZURICH.

ONLY AFTER SHE LOST HER BABY, SHE WOULDN'T EAT.

FOR A WHOLE MONTH, SHE WAS JUST PINING AWAY.

THEY WERE AFRAID SHE WAS GOING TO DIE, WHEN THEY SENT FOR ME

TO SEE IF I COULD HELP HER, AND WELL,

SHE'S BEEN WITH ME EVER SINCE.

I BOUGHT HER THE HAT 'CAUSE I THOUGHT

IT WOULD MAKE HER FEEL BETTER WITH US.

NOW SHE'S GOT A WHOLE TRUNK FULL OF THEM.

DO THEY MAKE HER FEEL BETTER?

OH, YEAH. SHE'S BACK TO HER NORMAL WEIGHT,

AND YOU OUGHT TO SEE HER IN FRONT OF A MIRROR.

SHE THINKS SHE'S THE HOTTEST NUMBER SINCE MARILYN MONROE.

HOW ABOUT DINNER TONIGHT?

OH, WELL, UM...

OF COURSE IF YOU'RE HERE WITH SOMEONE ELSE...

NO, I'M ALONE.

WELL, THEN IT'S ONLY FAIR.

I MEAN, GERTRUDE DID EAT YOUR POPCORN,

AND I UNDERSTAND THEY HAVE A WONDERFUL LUAU HERE.

I COULD CALL FOR YOU AT YOUR BUNGALOW.

I DON'T KNOW. UM...

I'LL LEAVE MY FRIEND HOME.

I'LL PICK YOU UP AT 7:30?

OKAY. I'M IN THE HIBISCUS BUNGALOW.

HIBISCUS. OKAY, I'LL SEE YOU THEN.

OKAY.

COME ON, GERTRUDE.

WE'VE GOT TO GET HOME AND GET WASHED UP.

I'M SORRY. I DON'T EVEN KNOW YOUR NAME.

OH, I'M MARY, MARY HOYT.

HI, MARY. I'M COLIN. COLIN McARTHUR. COME ON.

I KNOW.

MISS BOBBI JO CRANDALL.

WHY, YOU LOOK EXACTLY

LIKE I EXPECTED, MR. BIRDWHISTLE.

UH, SONG. BIRDSONG.

OH. OH, I DO APOLOGIZE,

MISPRONOUNCING YOUR NAME LIKE THAT.

I HOPE YOU WON'T HOLD IT AGAINST ME.

NO, NO, NOT AT ALL.

UH, WELL, WON'T YOU HAVE A SEAT, PLEASE?

WHERE?

JUST TAKE MY SEAT. HERE. HERE YOU GO.

OKAY.

OKAY. UH, NAME?

WE ALREADY KNOW THAT.

I'M BOBBI JO.

OH, SURE YOU ARE. RIGHT.

UH, HOMETOWN?

LITTLE ROCK, ARKANSAS,

BORN AND BRED.

UH, TALENTS?

NAME?

OH, NOT THAT.

"I KNOW I WAS RAISED IN THE LAP OF LUXURY.

I KNOW I ATTENDED ALL THE BEST SCHOOLS

AND WAS VOTED DEBUTANTE OF THE YEAR,

BUT THAT WAS ALL IN THE PAST.

I'M SIMPLY NOT QUALIFIED TO REIGN

AS THE MOST BEAUTIFUL GIRL IN THE WORLD, HAROLD."

UH, THAT WILL DO NICELY, YEAH. THANK YOU, THANK YOU, LISA.

PRETTY BAD, HUH?

I WAS NEVER VERY GOOD AT COLD READINGS.

IMPROVISATION IS WHAT I DO BEST.

OH, FINE. WELL, WHY DON'T YOU IMPROVISE SOMETHING THEN?

OKAY. UM...

I'LL IMPROVISE THE SEDUCTION OF A HOLLYWOOD CASTING DIRECTOR.

HUH?

FELIX, DARLING...

YOU ARE THE ONLY MAN IN MY HUMDRUM LIFE,

AND I CAN'T WAIT.

NOW, FELIX.

NOW IS THE TIME, AND THIS IS THE PLACE.

OPERATION NORTH HAMMER IS DESIGNED TO TEST

NATO REACTION TIME TO A SURPRISE ATTACK

ON THE VULNERABLE EUROPEAN NORTH FLANK.

THIS IS HENRY CARLSON

WITH THE NATO FORCES IN WEST BADEN, GERMANY.

OKAY, THEN HENRY ACCEPTS THE COMMENDATION

FOR THE NEWS TEAM, AND THEN THE BIG CASINO,

JANE WINS THE GOLDEN MIKE; AND JANE, WILL YOU PLEASE

KEEP YOUR ACCEPTANCE SPEECH DOWN TO 45 MINUTES?

THAT GOES FOR THE REST OF YOU, TOO.

WOULD A SIMPLE THANK YOU BE ENOUGH?

WONDERFUL.

IT WILL WIN OUR ASTONISHMENT AND OUR UNDYING GRATITUDE.

CAN WE GET OUT OF HERE?

WHY, ISN'T THIS IMPORTANT TO YOU?

NOT AS MUCH AS I THOUGHT IT WOULD BE.

JANE, I NEED YOUR SIGNATURE ON THIS.

JUST TAKE A SECOND?

SORRY. THAT'S ALL RIGHT.

LOOK OUT!

OH, NOW IT'S HAPPENING TO YOU, THE CURSE!

NOTHING IS HAPPENING TO ME, MISS GARWOOD.

IT WAS NOTHING BUT A CLUMSY ACCIDENT, THAT'S ALL.

MR. ROARKE, YOU'RE A VERY LUCKY MAN.

YOU WERE NEARLY NUMBER FOUR.

♪♪

THE TROUBLE IS THAT THE LOWLANDS

AND THE SWAMPY FORESTS OF BORNEO AND SUMATRA,

WHERE THE ORANGUTANS COME FROM, ARE DISAPPEARING.

IF SOMETHING ISN'T DONE,

IN 20 YEARS ORANGS WILL BECOME EXTINCT.

MM, AREN'T YOU THE LUCKY ONE?

I CERTAINLY AM.

ARE YOU, UM, GLAD YOU CAME?

YES, BUT I ALMOST CHANGED MY MIND.

I WAS AFRAID THAT WHEN YOU GOT BACK TO YOUR BUNGALOW,

YOU'D FIGURE OUT THAT I SENT GERTRUDE OVER TO PESTER YOU.

NO, NO. WHY DID YOU DO THAT?

BECAUSE YOU'RE A VERY PRETTY LADY,

AND I THOUGHT IT WOULD BE A GOOD WAY TO MEET YOU.

DOES THAT SURPRISE YOU?

YOU'RE BLUSHING. YOU KNOW, I CAN'T FIGURE YOU OUT.

ALL NIGHT LONG, I'M TRYING TO FIND OUT ABOUT YOU,

AND YOU ALWAYS MANAGE TO TURN THE CONVERSATION AROUND

TO WHERE I'M TALKING ABOUT MY ANIMALS.

HOW AM I GOING TO FIND OUT WHO YOU ARE, MYSTERY LADY?

IS THAT SO IMPORTANT NOW?

ATTENTION, ATTENTION!

PLEASE, CAN I HAVE YOUR ATTENTION?

YOU HAVE BEEN WATCHING A BEAUTIFUL LADY DANCE FOR YOU;

AND NOW COMES THE HIGHLIGHT OF OUR SHOW,

WHEN THEY WILL TEACH YOU THE FANTASY ISLAND DANCE.

TO THE THREE LUCKY MEN WHO RECEIVED THE FLOWER LEIS

IN THE LAST DANCE...

PLEASE, A ROUND OF APPLAUSE.

NO, NO, I CAN'T.

I DON'T THINK SHE'S GOING TO TAKE NO FOR AN ANSWER.

I'LL TEACH YOU. COME ON.

GENTLEMEN, LINE UP, PLEASE, AND DO AS THE GIRLS DO.

MUSIC, PLEASE.

WE COULD, YOU KNOW, HAVE A PICNIC OR SOMETHING?

I'D LIKE THAT VERY MUCH.

YOU KNOW, IT'S FUNNY.

I CAME TO THIS ISLAND TO WORK.

I MEAN, EVERYBODY ELSE COMES HERE FOR FANTASIES...

AND SUDDENLY I WALK RIGHT INTO ONE.

MY OWN.

I'LL SEE YOU TOMORROW.

OKAY.

OH, DEAR GOD, AM I DOING THE RIGHT THING?

AH, GOOD EVENING, TATTOO.

GOOD EVENING, BOSS.

STILL UP?

YES. I DIDN'T FEEL MUCH LIKE SLEEPING.

OH?

BESIDES, I WANT TO MAKE SURE THAT YOU GOT HOME OKAY.

YOUR CONCERN IS DEEPLY APPRECIATED.

THAT'S ENOUGH, MY FRIEND.

A COBRA.

ONE OF THE DEADLIEST SNAKES IN THE WORLD.

BOSS, IT'S THE BLACK MASK SYMBOL.

BOSS, IT WAS MEANT TO KILL YOU!

BOSS, ARE YOU ALL RIGHT?

DO YOU KNOW WHO IT WAS?

WHOEVER IT WAS

SEEMS TO KNOW THE ISLAND AS WELL AS WE DO.

YOU KNOW, IT'S REALLY GOING TO BE TOUGH.

WHAT, CHOOSING THE MOST BEAUTIFUL GIRL IN THE WORLD?

YEAH. YOU KNOW, IF IT WAS BACK IN THE '30S,

I'D PROBABLY PICK MADELEINE CARROLL.

NOW, THERE WAS A REAL BEAUTY.

YOU'RE REALLY TAKING ALL THIS SERIOUSLY, AREN'T YOU?

WELL, OF COURSE. IT'S A BIG RESPONSIBILITY.

WELL, THAT'S HOW THEY ALL START OUT,

EAGER AND NAIVE.

WHAT'S WRONG WITH THAT?

NOTHING, BUT IT NEVER LASTS.

MORNING.

MISS ARDEN, MR. BIRDSONG.

GOOD MORNING, TATTOO.

WHAT'S THIS, CHAMPAGNE FOR BREAKFAST?

OH, WE DIDN'T ORDER ANY CHAMPAGNE.

COMPLIMENTS OF THE THREE GENTLEMEN OVER THERE.

UH-HUH. IT BEGINS WITH CHAMPAGNE

AND ENDS WITH A BROWN PAPER BAG FULL OF MONEY.

ARE YOU IMPLYING THAT I'D SELL OUT?

DON'T BE RIDICULOUS.

WELL, FACT: HAMMERHEAD HARRIS IS SPONSORING MISS LITTLE ROCK,

BIG BILLY TIDWELL IS SPONSORING MISS BROOKLYN,

SHEIKH HABIB OVER THERE

IS SPONSORING MISS CANCAN GIGI.

NOW, DOES THAT TELL YOU ANYTHING?

I WON'T BE BOUGHT.

OH, GOOD MORNING, DOLL.

ALL SET FOR THE BIG EVENT?

NOT QUITE, MR. RAT. YOU'RE USING HIM, AREN'T YOU?

USING WHO?

WHAT ARE YOU TALKING ABOUT?

THAT NICE, SWEET, NAIVE FELIX BIRDSONG.

YOU'VE SET HIM UP AS A PATSY.

I DON'T KNOW WHAT YOU'RE TALKING ABOUT.

SID, I JUST CAME FROM YOUR OFFICE,

WHERE I WENT THROUGH YOUR PERSONAL FILES

AND YOUR PERSONAL SET OF BOOKS.

NOW, YOU'VE OVERSOLD THE PICTURE, SID.

50% TO BIG BILLY TIDWELL, 50% TO THE OIL SHEIKH,

AND AS FAR AS I CAN FIGURE OUT,

ABOUT 120% TO THAT MORON HAMMERHEAD HARRIS;

AND YOU PROMISED EACH AND EVERY ONE OF THEM

THAT THEIR GIRL WOULD BE THE STAR!

ALL RIGHT. HEY, SO THEY'LL GET

A LITTLE SORE WITH BIRDSONG.

SO, WHAT?

SID, THIS IS NO SMALL POTATO DEAL.

FELIX COULD GET HURT OR WORSE!

LISTEN, DOLL. HOW WOULD YOU LIKE A NICE BOOST IN SALARY

AND A NEW TITLE? AS OF RIGHT NOW,

YOU'RE RAISED $100 A WEEK,

AND YOU'RE ASSOCIATE PRODUCER ON THE FILM.

AREN'T I WONDERFUL?

I SHOULD'VE MADE IT $200 A WEEK.

MISS GARWOOD, CAN I TALK TO YOU FOR A SECOND?

OF COURSE, TATTOO. COME ON IN.

HERE.

WHAT'S THIS FOR?

IT'S FOR YOU, IF YOU LEAVE THE ISLAND.

I SOLD EVERYTHING I HAD...

MY CAR, MY HORSE, TO GET THAT.

IF YOU NEED MORE, NOT MUCH MORE, I'LL TRY.

BUT, TATTOO, WHY?

MISS GARWOOD, DO YOU KNOW WHAT A COBRA IS?

IT'S A VERY DEADLY SNAKE.

IT CAN KILL IN SECONDS.

SOMEBODY PUT ONE AND THIS

IN THE DESK OF MY BOSS LAST NIGHT.

OH... OH, NO.

MISS GARWOOD...

BEFORE IT'S TOO LATE, LEAVE.

DON'T LET HIM GET HURT.

YOU LOVE HIM, TOO, DON'T YOU, TATTOO?

YES, I DO.

BEFORE I MET MR. ROARKE,

I WAS NOBODY IN THE WORLD.

PEOPLE USED TO LAUGH AT ME.

NOBODY TOOK ME SERIOUSLY.

AND WHEN I MET HIM, I KNEW THAT HE LOVED ME

MORE THAN ANYONE DID.

HE'S MY FRIEND.

I LOVE HIM.

I WOULD DIE FOR HIM.

TATTOO?

WOULD YOU CARE TO TELL ME WHY YOU'RE HERE?

HE TOLD ME WHAT HAPPENED LAST NIGHT.

OH, I SEE.

I THINK YOU HAD BETTER LEAVE US NOW, MY FRIEND.

BOSS, YOU'RE NOT MAD AT ME, ARE YOU?

DON'T BLAME HIM. HE LOVES YOU SO MUCH,

AND IF ANYTHING HAPPENED TO YOU,

I'D FEEL THE SAME WAY.

NO, TATTOO IS RIGHT.

I'VE GOT TO LEAVE THE ISLAND

BEFORE THIS CURSE KILLS YOU, TOO.

NONSENSE.

THERE WAS NOTHING SUPERNATURAL ABOUT THAT SNAKE.

OR WHOEVER TRIED TO RUN ME DOWN.

YOU HAVE A CHOICE.

YOU CAN RUN AND LET THIS PERSON FOLLOW YOU

AND HARASS YOU, OR YOU CAN TRUST ME.

LET ME TRY TO PUT AN END TO IT HERE.

IT'S NOT MUCH FURTHER.

WE'D BETTER BE A LITTLE CAREFUL FROM HERE ON.

SHE MIGHT BE A LITTLE TESTY AROUND HER CUBS.

IT'S ALL RIGHT, GIRL.

IT'S ALL RIGHT.

OH, SHE'S BEAUTIFUL.

DID MR. ROARKE RAISE HER?

HER AND THREE OTHERS.

SHE'S A WHITE WOLF.

AN OLD INDIAN CHIEF GAVE THEM TO HIM

TO PRESERVE.

ONCE THEY ROAMED THE PLAIN STATES BY THE THOUSANDS

NOW THESE AND A HANDFUL OF OTHERS ARE ALL THAT ARE LEFT.

COME ON. YOU'RE GOING TO BE ALL RIGHT, GIRL.

THIS MAY BE THE LAST TIME YOU SEE ME.

DO YOU MIND IF I SHOW YOUR BROOD TO A FRIEND, HUH?

COME HERE.

OOH. WHAT WAS WRONG WITH HER?

SHE HAD A BAD INFECTION.

THEY THOUGHT SHE WAS GOING TO DIE.

WHAT'S THE MATTER?

NO, IT'S JUST THAT SOMEONE RECENTLY DIED

THAT WAS VERY CLOSE TO ME.

I DON'T KNOW. I WAS THINKING HOW WONDERFUL THAT MUST BE

TO BE ABLE TO GIVE LIFE BACK.

SOMETIMES NOTHING DOES ANY GOOD.

BUT AT LEAST, WITH YOUR ANIMALS,

YOU HAVE THE SKILL TO TRY,

AND WHEN YOU'RE THROUGH, YOU CAN FEEL LIKE

YOU'VE DONE SOMETHING.

THE PERSON WHO DIED MUST HAVE BEEN VERY SPECIAL TO YOU

FOR YOU TO CARE SO MUCH.

I THINK I KNOW HOW YOU FEEL.

SOMEONE VERY CLOSE TO ME DIED RECENTLY ALSO,

A NUN IN NEW MEXICO.

SHE WAS MAYBE THE FINEST PERSON I EVER KNEW IN MY WHOLE LIFE.

FUNNY, I THINK SHE WOULD'VE LIKED YOU.

OH, COLIN. HOLD ME, PLEASE.

YOU KNOW WHAT'S CRAZY?

I DON'T KNOW WHO YOU ARE OR WHERE YOU'RE FROM...

BUT IF I DIDN'T KNOW BETTER,

I'D SAY I'M FALLING IN LOVE WITH YOU.

♪♪

THANK YOU, MISS DALTON.

YOU'RE AN EXCELLENT DANCER.

OH, THANK YOU.

I ALSO DO TAP, BALLET...

I'LL REMEMBER THAT.

I'LL SEE YOU LATER AT THE BIG EVENT.

OH, GOOD. BYE-BYE. THANK YOU.

BYE.

WELL, THERE GOES THE LAST CANDIDATE.

NOW THE REAL WORK BEGINS...

DECIDING ON A WINNER.

JUST THINK, JANE.

IN MY HANDS, I HOLD THE FUTURES OF 20 GIRLS

WHO WANT TO BE STARS LIKE NORMA SHIER,

BETTE DAVIS, GRETA GARBO, HEPBURN, COLBERT...

STOP IT. STOP BEING SUCH AN ETHICAL, GENUINE

24-CARAT PIGEON.

PIGEON? WHAT DO YOU MEAN?

SID GORDON, HE'S USING YOU, FELIX.

HE'S OVERSOLD THE PICTURE, AND HE'S PROMISED THE PART

TO THREE DIFFERENT PEOPLE, AND UNLESS I MISS MY GUESS,

HE'S NOT EVEN GOING TO MAKE THIS PICTURE.

YOU MEAN THE WHOLE THING IS A FAKE, A SHAM?

BUT... HOW COULD MR. GORDON DO SUCH A THING?

I MEAN, HE'S ONE OF THE GREAT PRODUCERS OF OUR TIME!

DID YOU SEE "BLOSSOMS IN THE SNOW"?

ONE OF THE MOST SENSITIVE PICTURES I EVER SAW.

NOW, HE PRODUCED THAT.

OH, FELIX. THAT WAS A LONG TIME AGO.

HE'S MADE A DOZEN FLOPS SINCE THEN,

AND HALF OF THOSE ARE CON JOBS,

WHERE HE SWINDLED PEOPLE OUT OF MONEY.

BUT HE'S ONE OF THE BEST.

I JUST DON'T SEE HOW MR. GORDON COULD DO SUCH A THING.

MAKING MOVIES IS A PUBLIC TRUST.

UH, MISS HOYT, I THOUGHT I MIGHT FIND YOU HERE.

IS EVERYTHING OKAY?

WELL, THERE HAVE BEEN SEVERAL URGENT CABLES FROM THE CONVENT.

IS SOMETHING WRONG?

NO, NO. IT'S JUST THAT MOTHER SUPERIOR HAS SAID SHE MUST KNOW

IN THE NEXT 24 HOURS WHETHER OR NOT

YOU WILL TAKE YOUR FINAL VOWS.

YES, MY LEAVE OF ABSENCE WILL BE OVER TOMORROW.

YES.

I GUESS THERE ARE A LOT OF DECISIONS I HAVE TO MAKE.

COLIN HAS ASKED ME TO MARRY HIM.

I WAS JUST ADMIRING YOUR ANTIQUES.

WHAT CAN I DO FOR YOU, MR. MARSH?

OH, I THINK THE POINT IS, WHAT CAN I DO FOR YOU?

I BEG YOUR PARDON?

I BELIEVE YOU KNOW THAT YOU AND YOUR GIRLFRIEND

ARE THE TALK OF THE ISLAND.

YOU MEAN MISS GARWOOD.

WILL YOU COME OFF IT, ROARKE?

I CAME HERE TO WARN YOU.

THIS CURSE BUSINESS IS NONSENSE.

IT'S HER. SHE'S THE KILLER.

I SEE.

YOU DON'T BELIEVE ME.

BUT WHY YOU DISLIKE HER SO INTENSELY, MR. MARSH?

MR. ROARKE, THIS IS PAUL KENDALL.

HE WAS MY FRIEND. WE CAME UP

IN THE BUSINESS TOGETHER. HE WAS HER PRODUCER.

HE WAS A FINE NEWSMAN UNTIL HE MET HER.

THEN SUDDENLY ALL HE CARED ABOUT WAS HER CAREER.

SO, HE CREATED HER, AND THEN HE DIED.

AND YOU REALLY BELIEVE SHE KILLED THREE MEN

TO FURTHER HER CAREER.

WHEN SHE PICKS UP THAT AWARD THIS EVENING,

SHE'LL BE THE BIGGEST THING ON TELEVISION.

PEOPLE HAVE KILLED FOR LESS THAN THAT.

I SEE.

WELL, FORTUNATELY THERE IS A VERY LARGE FLAW

IN YOUR THEORY, MR. MARSH.

YOU SEE, MISS GARWOOD IS DETERMINED TO RETIRE.

OH, IT'S TRUE. THE PRESS RELEASE WAS DISTRIBUTED AN HOUR AGO.

THE AWARD CEREMONY WILL BE HER LAST APPEARANCE, EVER,

ON TELEVISION.

NOW, IF YOU'LL EXCUSE ME.

OF COURSE, I'LL EXCUSE YOU.

I JUST HOPE YOUR JUDGMENT IS NOT SO CLOUDED

THAT YOU'VE FALLEN IN LOVE WITH HER.

IT'S AN ATTRACTION THAT'S PROVED FATAL

FOR THREE MEN ALREADY.

TATTOO, WHATEVER HAPPENED

TO HONESTY IS THE BEST POLICY,

AND A MAN'S WORD IS HIS BOND?

BEATS ME.

YOU WANT TO KNOW SOMETHING?

I'M NEVER, EVER GOING TO GO TO ANOTHER MOVIE

AS LONG AS I LIVE.

I'M EVEN GOING TO GIVE UP POPCORN.

OH, MR. BIRDSONG.

NO, NO, I MADE UP MY MIND.

YOU SEE, ALL MY LIFE I WANTED TO BE IN SHOWBIZ.

ALL THAT GLAMOUR, EVERYTHING.

I WOULDN'T BE IN IT NOW IF FAYE DUNAWAY

WALKED IN HERE AND GOT DOWN ON HER KNEES AND BEGGED ME.

MR. BIRDSONG, I KNOW HOW YOU FEEL.

BUT HOW WOULD YOU LIKE TO GET EVEN WITH MR. GORDON?

OH, TATTOO, I'D GIVE ANYTHING,

INCLUDING A 1934 COPY OF "PHOTO PLAY" IN MINT CONDITION.

I'VE GOT AN IDEA,

BUT WE'VE GOT TO HURRY.

THE SELECTION FOR THE MOST BEAUTIFUL GIRL IN THE WORLD

STARTS IN A FEW MINUTES. LET'S GO.

CAN WE STOP OFF AND PICK UP MY BEST FRIEND JANE?

OF COURSE. COME ON. LET'S GO.

BUT I DON'T UNDERSTAND. WHERE ARE YOU TAKING ME?

TO MY HOUSE, WHERE YOU WILL REMAIN SAFELY

WHILE ON THIS ISLAND.

BUT I'M IN NO DANGER. YOU ARE.

I DON'T THINK SO, NOT ANYMORE.

YOU SEE, I AM PERSUADED YOUR TELEVISION CAREER,

YOUR IMAGE, IS SOMEHOW THE KEY TO THIS CURSE,

TO EVERYTHING THAT'S HAPPENED,

AND IF I AM RIGHT, I'VE ALREADY SET THE TRAP

WITH YOU AS THE BAIT.

WHOEVER IS BEHIND THIS ALLEGED CURSE

WILL NOW COME TO THIS BUNGALOW,

LOOKING FOR YOU.

HOW DO YOU KNOW THAT?

THE THREE MEN WHO DIED,

EACH WAS AN IMPEDIMENT TO YOUR CAREER, THINK ABOUT IT.

WITH YOUR ANNOUNCEMENT TODAY OF YOUR RETIREMENT,

YOU WILL BE THE ONE FINAL IMPEDIMENT.

PLEASE GET IN.

MY PRIVATE 747, THE FLYING CARPET, IS EN ROUTE HERE.

AFTER MADEMOISELLE GIGI IS NAMED THE WINNER,

I INVITE YOU ALL TO A PARTY AT MY SAHARA DESERT OASIS.

AFTERNOON, MR. GORDON.

EVERYTHING UNDER CONTROL?

SHH, QUIET. IT'S IN THE BAG.

HOW DO YOU FEEL?

SOBER AS A JUDGE.

WHICH YOU'RE ABOUT TO BECOME,

MUCH TO THE SURPRISE OF MR. GORDON.

TATTOO'S GOING TO READ THE ANNOUNCEMENTS.

THANK YOU, THANK YOU.

WELCOME. THIS AFTERNOON, ONE LUCKY GIRL WILL BE CHOSEN

TO STAR IN A PICTURE,

"THE MOST BEAUTIFUL GIRL IN THE WORLD."

THE MAN WHO IS GOING TO CHOOSE THE LUCKY WINNER

IS MR. BIRDSONG.

OKAY, COME ON. GIVE ME YOUR COFFEE.

COME ON.

THANK YOU FOR YOUR GENEROUS WELCOME.

YOU KNOW, CHOOSING THE MOST BEAUTIFUL GIRL IN THE WORLD

HASN'T BEEN EASY.

THEY SAY THAT BEAUTY IS IN THE EYE OF THE BEHOLDER,

AND I BELIEVE THAT.

AND WITH THAT THOUGHT IN MIND,

I HAVE MADE MY FINAL DECISION.

TODAY'S WINNER, THE GIRL WHO IS GOING TO WIN $25,000

FROM MR. SID GORDON AND HIS BACKERS, AND WHO WILL STAR

IN THE FILM, "THE MOST BEAUTIFUL GIRL IN THE WORLD,"

IS...

NUMBER 1 THROUGH NUMBER 20!

I SAY ALL THE GIRLS ARE WINNERS,

AND ALL OF THEM GET THE PRIZE MONEY.

THAT'S 25 GRAND APIECE.

THAT COSTS ME $500,000.

WHAT'S HAPPENED HERE?

I THOUGHT I'D GRAB A BREATH OF FRESH AIR.

WE WISH TO GRAB SOMETHING ALSO.

LET'S GRAB THE INFIDEL BY THE THROAT!

WE'VE GOT UNFINISHED BUSINESS.

HOW'D I DO?

SENSATIONAL. NOT EVEN SID GORDON

CAN SQUIRM HIS WAY OUT OF THIS ONE.

♪♪

I'VE BEEN LOOKING FOR YOU EVERYWHERE.

WE WERE SUPPOSED TO MEET TWO HOURS AGO.

I'M SORRY. I HAD A LOT OF THINKING TO DO.

ABOUT US?

COLIN, LAST NIGHT YOU ASKED ME WHO I AM, WHERE I'M FROM

AND WHY I CAME TO FANTASY ISLAND.

MM-HMM?

I CAME HERE FOR YOU.

FOR ME?

WE'VE NEVER EVEN MET.

YES, WE HAVE. YOU JUST DON'T REMEMBER.

IT WAS MORE THAN FOUR YEARS AGO.

YOU CAME OUT TO THE FARM TO TAKE CARE OF OUR ANIMALS,

AND SISTER MARGARET INTRODUCED YOU TO ALL OF US,

AND YOU TOLD SOME REALLY FUNNY STORIES, AND YOU MADE US LAUGH.

YOU WERE SO GENTLE WITH THE ANIMALS.

YOU WERE A NUN.

YEAH. I STILL AM.

UNTIL TOMORROW. THAT'S WHEN I HAVE TO DECIDE

WHETHER OR NOT TO TAKE MY FINAL VOWS.

AND?

THERE'S NOTHING FOR ME THERE ANYMORE.

CAN YOU BE SO SURE?

MM-HMM.

WHEN I FIRST ENTERED THE CONVENT,

I WANTED TO BE JUST LIKE SAINT THERESA.

THE TOY BALL.

YOU KNOW THE STORY.

OF COURSE, YOU WOULD IF YOU KNEW SISTER MARGARET.

WELL, ANYWAY, IT JUST DIDN'T WORK OUT FOR ME.

THE BABY JESUS NEVER USED ME.

IN ALL THOSE YEARS, I WAS LEFT UNTOUCHED.

EVEN WHEN SISTER MARGARET WAS DYING OF CANCER,

AND SHE WAS ONLY 35.

COULDN'T HE HAVE EVEN HEARD ME THEN?

YOU ARE SISTER MARY THERESA.

YEAH, THAT WAS MY NAME.

I'M SORRY. I...

I DON'T MEAN TO GO ON.

IT'S JUST THAT IT'S IMPORTANT TO ME THAT YOU KNOW WHO I AM,

OR WAS.

AND I'M NOT BITTER. I REALIZE NOW

THAT GOD HAS SOMETHING ELSE IN MIND FOR ME...

MAYBE MARRYING YOU.

DO YOU LOVE ME?

I KNOW I CAN, AND I KNOW YOU'RE A GOOD MAN,

AND I FEEL INSIDE THAT I COULD BE A GOOD WIFE TO YOU.

AND I'LL TRY. I'LL TRY REAL HARD,

JUST LIKE I DID FOR THE TOY BALL.

I FEEL SO FOOLISH, SO ALONE.

DON'T.

I'LL BE AT THE BRIDGE TOMORROW

IF YOU WANT TO SEE ME,

AND IF YOU DON'T, I'LL UNDERSTAND.

ANYTHING YET?

QUIET AS A CEMETERY, MR. ROARKE.

I DON'T LIKE THIS, TATTOO. SOMETHING IS WRONG.

WHAT'S HAPPENING?

NOTHING. THAT'S JUST IT.

IT'S PERFECTLY QUIET.

I WAS CERTAIN THE ANNOUNCEMENT OF MISS GARWOOD'S RETIREMENT

WOULD FORCE HIM TO MAKE A MOVE.

HIM? WHO?

THE ONE RESPONSIBLE FOR THE CURSE.

AND IF I'M NOT MISTAKEN,

SOMEONE WHO'S COME ONTO OUR ISLAND...

UNINVITED.

COME. WE'D BETTER MAKE A PHONE CALL.

I WANT TO MAKE SURE MISS GARWOOD IS SAFE.

YES?

MISS GARWOOD?

OH, IT'S YOU. YOU HAD ME WORRIED.

IS EVERYTHING ALL RIGHT?

YES, PERFECTLY. WHAT ABOUT YOU?

OH, IT'S BEEN ABSOLUTELY QUIET.

AS A MATTER OF FACT, I'M GETTING SO BORED,

THAT I DON'T THINK THAT...

WHAT HAPPENED, BOSS?

I DON'T KNOW.

WHERE ARE WE GOING?

YOU ARE STAYING HERE, MY FRIEND, OUT OF DANGER.

I'M PLAYING A HUNCH, WHICH HAD BETTER BE RIGHT.

IN THE UNITY OF UNHOLY FELLOWSHIP,

WE PRAISE AND HONOR FIRST LUCIFER

AND BEELZEBUB, PRINCE OF EARTH,

ANGEL OF DESTRUCTION.

WE CALL THY DREADFUL MINIONS

THE FULFILLMENT OF OUR DESIRES

AND THE DESTRUCTION OF OUR ENEMIES.

HAIL TO THEE, BLACK PRINCE,

FROM THE GROTTO WHOSE CHARGE WE BEAR.

HAIL TO THEE AND TO THY FATHERS

WITHIN WHO SCREAMED OUR LAST AND SCREAMED IN TERROR

AND IN MERRIMENT, IN FEAR AND IN ECSTASY,

IN LOANING US IN AN ANGER UPON THE WHIM OF THEY WILL.

HAIL PRINCE OF THE ABYSS. IN THEY NAME,

LET US BEHOLD THE FATHER, THAT THE OLD ONE,

WHO REIGNETH UPON THE WORLD OF HORRORS

COME AND SPEAK WITH US,

FOR WE WOULD AGAIN STRENGTHEN THE BOND AND LIVE IT

WITHIN THE DARK ANGELS.

HAIL, FATHER OF THE WORLD OF HORRORS.

HAIL, FATHER OF THE HORNLESS ONES.

HAIL, RAM OF THE SON AND THE DECKLESS ONE

WHO SLEEPETH NOT WHILE THY HORROR AND THEY NAME

AND THEY BOND LIVETH. I AM THAT I AM

THROUGH THE DARK ANGELS THAT I SPEAK,

AND THE HORNLESS ONES, AND I PLEDGE UNTO YOU

THE BONDS OF THE DEMONS THROUGH WHOSE WILL THIS WORLD

HAS COME TO BE.

LET US SPEAK THE BOND OF THE KNIGHT AND DARK ANGELS.

HAIL, FATHER...

MASTER OF THE UNIVERSE!

FROM WHOM WE RECEIVE ALL STRENGTH...

DO YOU SEE?

NOTHING SUPERNATURAL, ONLY A MAN IN A BLACK CLOAK.

HUMAN HANDS HOLDING A SNAKE.

DANGEROUS, DEADLY...

BUT HARDLY SPIRITUAL.

PAUL!

YES. PAUL KENDALL,

THE MAN WHO ARRANGED THE BLACK MASS.

THE ONE MAN WHOSE BODY WAS NEVER FOUND.

TOO LATE.

NO ONE CAN SAVE HIM NOW.

I CAN'T BELIEVE IT.

WHY WOULD PAUL KENDALL WANT TO KILL ME?

BECAUSE HE CREATED YOU.

HE CREATED YOUR TELEVISION IMAGE,

SO ANY THREAT TO THAT IMAGE HAD TO BE DESTROYED.

DON'T YOU SEE? YOUR FIANCES, MYSELF.

HE FEARED BEING CAUGHT, SO HE STAGED HIS OWN DEATH.

BUT IF HE TRIED TO KILL ME,

WOULDN'T HE BE KILLING THAT PRECIOUS IMAGE, TOO?

YOU HAD ALREADY DONE THAT TODAY,

WHEN YOU ANNOUNCED YOUR RETIREMENT.

AT LEAST YOU GUYS ARE STILL WITH ME. HERE.

COLIN!

I THOUGHT I'D BUY GERTRUDE A BAG OF HER OWN TODAY.

HERE, GERTRUDE.

I DIDN'T COME TO MARRY YOU, MARY.

I DON'T THINK I COULD STAND THE COMPETITION.

WHAT DO YOU MEAN?

OH, JUST ABOUT PEOPLE AND EMOTION.

THE WAY THINGS HAPPEN, LIKE PEOPLE WE LOVE DYING,

AND HOW IT TURNS YOUR WHOLE HEAD AROUND AND CONFUSES YOU.

BUT I'M NOT CONFUSED.

SISTER MARGARET WAS A SAINT.

YES, BUT YOU SAID YOU WERE NEVER USED,

THAT IN ALL THE YEARS IN THE CONVENT, YOU DID NO GOOD.

THAT'S RIGHT. IT'S TRUE.

IS IT?

YOU KNOW, WHEN I GOT BACK FROM TANZANIA,

AMONG ALL THE MAIL WAITING FOR ME

WAS A LETTER FROM SISTER MARGARET.

SHE MUST HAVE WRITTEN IT JUST A FEW DAYS BEFORE SHE DIED.

I'D LIKE YOU TO HEAR A PART OF IT.

"THE PAIN GETS WORSE EVERY DAY NOW.

OUTSIDE I CAN HEAR THE CHILDREN PLAYING,

AND I WANT TO CRY TO BE WITH THEM.

I KNOW I'M BEING TESTED NOW.

THE PAIN, THE PAIN, AND EVERY DAY

I THANK GOD FOR SISTER MARY THERESA.

I WOULD'VE GONE MAD BY NOW IF NOT FOR HER,

DENOUNCED MY LIFE, MY VOWS, MY GOD,

BUT SHE'S ALWAYS THERE, LIKE THE ORIGINAL THERESA.

ALWAYS KIND AND SWEET, TAKING CARE OF ME.

THE OTHER SISTERS TELL ME SHE'S HELD THE WHOLE SCHOOL TOGETHER

JUST BY BEING HERSELF,

HER SIMPLE DEVOTION.

NO GREAT CATHEDRALS OR HOSPITALS OR ANYTHING

CAN MATCH THE GREATEST GIFT WHICH SHE GIVES US ALL...

HER LOVE AND GOODNESS."

MAY I PLEASE HAVE MY BALL BACK?

TIME TO THROW IT BACK, SISTER.

THEY NEED TO USE IT.

THANK YOU.

OH, MISS GARWOOD.

I'M SO HAPPY YOU WON THE AWARD.

OH, THANK YOU, TATTOO.

I JUST WANTED TO STOP AND SAY GOODBYE.

I'M GLAD YOU DID.

HAVE YOU DECIDED WHAT YOU WILL DO NOW?

NO, BUT I'M GOING TO TAKE A LEAVE AND THINK ABOUT IT.

I SEE.

I SUPPOSE IT'S SAFE NOW IF ANYONE WANTS TO CARE FOR ME.

CARE FOR YOU?

THE SPANIARDS HAVE A PROVERB.

WELL, ACTUALLY THEY HAVE A PROVERB TO FIT ANY SITUATION,

BUT THIS ONE SAYS THAT YOU CAN WANT A WOMAN FOR HER BODY,

BUT YOU CAN ONLY LOVE HER FOR HER CHARACTER.

I THINK MANY MEN WILL WANT TO LOVE YOU, MISS GARWOOD.

WELL, THANK YOU, GENTLEMEN,

FOR A WONDERFUL EXPERIENCE.

YOU ARE MOST WELCOME, MISS ARDEN.

AND WHAT ABOUT YOU, MR. BIRDSONG?

WAS THE FANTASY WORTH IT?

YOU KNOW, I WAS JUST WONDERING THE SAME THING

UNTIL A FEW MINUTES AGO.

WHAT HAPPENED?

WELL, I CALLED MY BROTHER WHO RUNS THE ACCOUNTING DEPARTMENT

AT MONUMENT PICTURES.

AND?

WELL, HE OFFERED ME A FULL-TIME JOB

WORKING IN THE ACCOUNTING DEPARTMENT.

DON'T YOU SEE, MR. ROARKE?

AS OF TOMORROW MORNING, I REALLY WILL BE IN SHOWBIZ.

OH, CONGRATULATIONS, MR. BIRDSONG.

THANK YOU SO MUCH.

GOODBYE. GOODBYE.

GOODBYE, MISS ARDEN.

WELL, SISTER, I SEE YOU'VE MADE YOUR DECISION.

I HOPE WE WERE OF SOME ASSISTANCE.

OH, YES, MR. ROARKE. MORE THAN YOU'LL EVER KNOW.

I REALIZE NOW THAT I'VE BEEN LIVING

MY REAL FANTASY ALL ALONG. THANK YOU VERY MUCH.

YOU'RE VERY WELCOME, SISTER.

GOODBYE.

GOODBYE.

BYE!

OH, TATTOO, THE MONEY YOU TRIED TO GIVE MISS GARWOOD,

SHE RETURNED IT TO ME.

I DON'T CARE, NOW THAT I SOLD MY HORSE AND MY CAR.

WELL, AS A MATTER OF FACT...

I BOUGHT THEM BACK.

OH, THANK YOU VERY MUCH!

YES, THE GENTLEMAN INSISTED ON $1,200.

$1,200?

YES.

BUT HE ONLY GAVE ME $1,000.

WELL, IT SEEMS HE HAS A RULE. HE BUYS LOW AND SELLS HIGH.

BOSS, I'M SORRY. EVERY TIME I TRY TO DO SOMETHING,

I COST YOU MONEY.

TATTOO, I CONSIDER A DEAR, TRUE FRIENDSHIP SUCH AS OURS

BEYOND ANY PRICE.

THANK YOU, BOSS. THANK YOU VERY MUCH.
