1
00:00:12,110 --> 00:00:16,650
I bet we've been together for a million
years.

2
00:00:17,070 --> 00:00:21,870
And I bet we'll be together for a
million more.

3
00:00:23,270 --> 00:00:27,530
Oh, it's like I started breathing on the
night we kissed.

4
00:00:28,410 --> 00:00:33,110
And I can't remember what I ever did
before.

5
00:00:33,850 --> 00:00:36,050
What would we do, baby?

6
00:00:40,270 --> 00:00:43,930
What would we do, baby, without us?

7
00:00:45,630 --> 00:00:50,110
And there ain't no nothing we can't love
each other through.

8
00:00:51,050 --> 00:00:55,710
What would we do, baby, without us?

9
00:00:56,670 --> 00:00:57,870
Sha -la -la -la.

10
00:01:04,010 --> 00:01:05,090
What's heaven like?

11
00:01:05,930 --> 00:01:08,330
No matter what you eat, you can't gain
weight.

12
00:01:11,390 --> 00:01:14,270
Answer the question, Alex. Is it hard to
be you? You know the answer.

13
00:01:15,590 --> 00:01:16,590
Of course it's hard.

14
00:01:17,210 --> 00:01:21,050
They have these great stores there,
Alex. They open at 9 in the morning and

15
00:01:21,050 --> 00:01:22,050
open until infinity.

16
00:01:26,390 --> 00:01:27,390
And Alex?

17
00:01:28,110 --> 00:01:29,630
Alex one size fits all.

18
00:01:32,110 --> 00:01:33,490
Why is it so hard to be you?

19
00:01:34,230 --> 00:01:35,230
You know.

20
00:01:35,650 --> 00:01:36,650
Say it.

21
00:01:37,770 --> 00:01:38,770
Because.

22
00:01:39,070 --> 00:01:40,070
Yeah, because?

23
00:01:43,920 --> 00:01:44,920
Because I'm better.

24
00:01:45,440 --> 00:01:46,820
And smarter.

25
00:01:49,120 --> 00:01:50,920
I'll bet Alex knows the answer.

26
00:01:52,320 --> 00:01:54,120
Don't do that to me, Mrs. Leahy.

27
00:01:55,080 --> 00:01:57,700
It's all so simple, Alex, and it's all
so pretty.

28
00:01:57,940 --> 00:01:59,460
Why do you worry so much?

29
00:01:59,840 --> 00:02:04,720
Alex, tell the class what Christopher
Columbus was really trying to do when he

30
00:02:04,720 --> 00:02:05,720
discovered America.

31
00:02:07,080 --> 00:02:09,900
Why do you set me apart from the other
kids like that?

32
00:02:11,520 --> 00:02:12,760
It makes me so uncomfortable.

33
00:02:15,560 --> 00:02:16,760
They're all looking at me.

34
00:02:18,180 --> 00:02:19,180
They're all jealous.

35
00:02:20,180 --> 00:02:22,840
They don't want to play with me at
recess.

36
00:02:23,680 --> 00:02:26,940
It's the price you have to pay, Alex,
because you're special.

37
00:02:29,900 --> 00:02:31,580
But I'm just a little boy.

38
00:02:32,220 --> 00:02:33,900
Class, pay attention to Alex.

39
00:02:34,300 --> 00:02:40,060
God, I hate it when she did that. She'd
call on me in that old maid teacher's

40
00:02:40,060 --> 00:02:42,860
voice. Alex, no. Alex, no. Alex, no.

41
00:02:43,920 --> 00:02:45,460
I was seven years old.

42
00:02:46,600 --> 00:02:49,380
You don't put that kind of pressure on a
kid that age.

43
00:02:51,320 --> 00:02:56,040
I knew I had to be ready because she was
counting on me, pushing me.

44
00:02:57,280 --> 00:02:59,140
Alex, please tell the class.

45
00:03:00,840 --> 00:03:04,280
Columbus was really trying to find a
fast, direct route to the Indies, Mrs.

46
00:03:04,320 --> 00:03:07,700
Leahy. He was looking for spices, but he
found a new world.

47
00:03:08,060 --> 00:03:09,300
It was just an accident.

48
00:03:09,700 --> 00:03:10,820
It was an accident!

49
00:03:13,520 --> 00:03:14,860
He should not have been in that car
alone.

50
00:03:15,320 --> 00:03:17,140
I should have been with him.

51
00:03:19,280 --> 00:03:22,200
Maybe you would have gone more slowly.

52
00:03:23,160 --> 00:03:24,540
Maybe I would have seen the other car.

53
00:03:26,100 --> 00:03:27,100
It was an accident.

54
00:03:28,400 --> 00:03:30,080
There aren't any accidents, Alex.

55
00:03:30,480 --> 00:03:33,720
Everything happens the way it's supposed
to happen. We've all been here before.

56
00:03:35,760 --> 00:03:37,300
Mallory's really getting on my nerves,
Dad.

57
00:03:39,860 --> 00:03:42,000
I mean, why did you have to have another
kid?

58
00:03:42,600 --> 00:03:44,360
We were doing so well, just the three of
us.

59
00:03:46,240 --> 00:03:48,500
Well, when you get older, you'll
appreciate her more.

60
00:03:49,860 --> 00:03:50,860
Doubt it.

61
00:03:51,860 --> 00:03:53,020
Come on, you want to have a little
catch?

62
00:03:53,300 --> 00:03:55,940
Oh, no, I don't... Dad, I'm not very
good at it.

63
00:03:56,200 --> 00:03:58,080
Well, you can't expect to learn it all
in one day.

64
00:03:59,240 --> 00:04:00,860
I learned algebra all in one day.

65
00:04:02,540 --> 00:04:03,540
Well, I know.

66
00:04:03,800 --> 00:04:06,560
But now you're starting school, you have
to learn how to play catch.

67
00:04:12,810 --> 00:04:13,990
Okay. Okay, good.

68
00:04:15,050 --> 00:04:18,490
Look, I can get some tickets to the
Indians game on Saturday if you want to

69
00:04:18,709 --> 00:04:19,609
Ah, the Indians?

70
00:04:19,610 --> 00:04:20,930
I don't like the Indians that much.

71
00:04:21,310 --> 00:04:23,570
How can you not like the Indians?
They're in first place.

72
00:04:24,170 --> 00:04:25,170
Not financially.

73
00:04:27,070 --> 00:04:29,870
In terms of cash flow, the Orioles are
the team to beat this year.

74
00:04:31,330 --> 00:04:33,470
The Orioles are 15 games out.

75
00:04:34,810 --> 00:04:36,270
What does that have to do with anything?

76
00:04:37,530 --> 00:04:39,550
Their TV revenues are up 15%.

77
00:04:40,430 --> 00:04:42,930
Ticket prices up 7%. These guys are
doing great.

78
00:04:43,410 --> 00:04:46,410
They keep this up, they can buy the
Indians.

79
00:04:50,690 --> 00:04:53,770
It's a whole new perspective on our
national pastime.

80
00:04:55,470 --> 00:04:59,270
Oh, come on, let's have a little catch.
Remember how I showed you? Now just put

81
00:04:59,270 --> 00:05:00,089
your hands together.

82
00:05:00,090 --> 00:05:01,090
Make a cup.

83
00:05:01,930 --> 00:05:02,930
Yeah, good boy.

84
00:05:04,110 --> 00:05:07,290
Oops, I'm sorry, Dad. Oh, no, no, it's
okay.

85
00:05:08,220 --> 00:05:09,700
You're trying. That's all that counts.

86
00:05:13,360 --> 00:05:16,300
He was... He was always supportive like
that.

87
00:05:18,100 --> 00:05:19,100
Just do it.

88
00:05:19,400 --> 00:05:21,960
Just try. Just have fun.

89
00:05:22,260 --> 00:05:23,340
That's all that matters.

90
00:05:23,680 --> 00:05:25,340
You have trouble with that attitude?

91
00:05:26,540 --> 00:05:27,540
I don't know.

92
00:05:28,240 --> 00:05:30,680
It's a little naive, isn't it?

93
00:05:31,460 --> 00:05:32,460
I don't know.

94
00:05:34,190 --> 00:05:37,710
There are winners and there are losers
in life, and there's no getting around

95
00:05:37,710 --> 00:05:38,710
that.

96
00:05:38,910 --> 00:05:42,550
So, you think your father's a weak man,
then?

97
00:05:47,350 --> 00:05:49,390
No. But you just said... Let me finish.

98
00:05:49,930 --> 00:05:50,930
Sorry.

99
00:05:54,790 --> 00:05:56,190
I used to think that way.

100
00:05:57,770 --> 00:05:59,430
I'm embarrassed by it now.

101
00:06:02,760 --> 00:06:06,440
That I could be so blind to his
strength.

102
00:06:07,660 --> 00:06:09,320
He has great love, my father.

103
00:06:09,660 --> 00:06:12,660
Not just for his family, but for life.

104
00:06:13,760 --> 00:06:18,360
He doesn't have to make you wrong for
him to be right. He doesn't have to make

105
00:06:18,360 --> 00:06:20,720
you a loser to be a winner himself.

106
00:06:23,120 --> 00:06:24,860
I wish I was more like my father.

107
00:06:25,960 --> 00:06:27,700
Oh, Dad, another sister.

108
00:06:27,940 --> 00:06:29,580
How could you do this to me?

109
00:06:32,780 --> 00:06:36,200
Alex, some of these things are not
controllable, you know?

110
00:06:36,420 --> 00:06:38,820
I know, but you should have consulted
with me first.

111
00:06:40,000 --> 00:06:43,900
Alex, she's a beautiful little girl, and
we love her.

112
00:06:44,500 --> 00:06:45,500
You will, too.

113
00:06:46,080 --> 00:06:47,080
All right.

114
00:06:47,660 --> 00:06:48,740
What's this one's name?

115
00:06:50,380 --> 00:06:51,380
Jennifer.

116
00:06:55,380 --> 00:06:56,380
You got a minute?

117
00:06:56,680 --> 00:06:57,680
Sure.

118
00:06:58,660 --> 00:06:59,660
What are you reading?

119
00:07:00,989 --> 00:07:04,810
Kierkegaard, internal development of man
and dynamic representational

120
00:07:04,810 --> 00:07:05,810
expression.

121
00:07:08,050 --> 00:07:09,650
Yeah, well, that's okay for fun.

122
00:07:12,630 --> 00:07:15,050
But later, try to get into something a
little more serious, okay?

123
00:07:15,330 --> 00:07:16,330
I promise.

124
00:07:17,990 --> 00:07:19,290
Do you ever think about it, Jen?

125
00:07:20,990 --> 00:07:23,670
Life, death, infinity?

126
00:07:24,210 --> 00:07:25,650
Well, sometimes I do.

127
00:07:26,600 --> 00:07:29,940
But sometimes I just want tickets to a
Van Halen concert.

128
00:07:32,940 --> 00:07:34,220
Interesting kid, Jen.

129
00:07:37,340 --> 00:07:42,100
It's the only teenager I know who can
combine Soren Kierkegaard and Eddie Van

130
00:07:42,100 --> 00:07:43,460
Halen in her life.

131
00:07:46,400 --> 00:07:48,080
It's funny to be back here in her room.

132
00:07:49,260 --> 00:07:51,720
There's a certain perfumey smell.

133
00:07:53,080 --> 00:07:54,480
It was her birthday.

134
00:07:54,720 --> 00:07:55,720
She was two.

135
00:07:56,720 --> 00:07:59,680
And I didn't know what to get her, so I
got her perfume.

136
00:08:00,700 --> 00:08:02,660
Because I figured, you know, girls like
that.

137
00:08:03,240 --> 00:08:04,380
And it was on sale.

138
00:08:07,700 --> 00:08:13,860
And she spilled it all over her crib. So
now whenever I smell very, very cheap

139
00:08:13,860 --> 00:08:17,300
perfume, I think of Jan.

140
00:08:20,520 --> 00:08:22,080
It's a strange thing about memories.

141
00:08:24,390 --> 00:08:27,570
Sometimes they can be more real than
what we think of as reality.

142
00:08:30,350 --> 00:08:34,010
The smell of wet wool mittens on a
radiator.

143
00:08:35,049 --> 00:08:38,309
That is the smell of Mrs. Leahy's class
in winter forever.

144
00:08:42,090 --> 00:08:43,750
Hey, those are my mittens.

145
00:08:44,530 --> 00:08:46,450
Are you sure? They look a little bit
like mine.

146
00:08:48,970 --> 00:08:51,250
Your mittens have dollar signs crocheted
in the palm?

147
00:08:53,080 --> 00:08:54,280
Sorry, I didn't notice that.

148
00:08:56,200 --> 00:08:58,760
Hey, you're the new kid, right? Yeah,
I'm Greg McCormick.

149
00:08:59,440 --> 00:09:02,600
Hello, my name is Eric. I know who you
are. You're Alex Keaton, the kid who

150
00:09:02,600 --> 00:09:03,600
knows everything.

151
00:09:04,800 --> 00:09:06,860
Who told you that? Didn't Mr. Leahy say
that?

152
00:09:07,520 --> 00:09:08,960
No, the other kids were saying it.

153
00:09:09,320 --> 00:09:12,440
They say it's great here. All you have
to do is just keep quiet. Sooner or

154
00:09:12,440 --> 00:09:13,980
later, Keaton rattles off the answer.

155
00:09:16,460 --> 00:09:17,900
How come you know so much?

156
00:09:18,900 --> 00:09:20,080
I take some night classes.

157
00:09:22,579 --> 00:09:23,579
Ohio State.

158
00:09:26,680 --> 00:09:29,080
Well, I'll see you around. I'm going to
go out and play for recess.

159
00:09:29,520 --> 00:09:30,860
I'm sorry about the mittens.

160
00:09:32,900 --> 00:09:34,140
Hey, do you want to come out and play?

161
00:09:35,480 --> 00:09:36,480
Me?

162
00:09:36,960 --> 00:09:38,920
Yeah, you. You know how to play, don't
you?

163
00:09:39,600 --> 00:09:43,000
Well, I normally stay inside at recess
and help Mr. Leahy prepare tomorrow's

164
00:09:43,000 --> 00:09:44,000
assignments.

165
00:09:44,460 --> 00:09:47,840
Come on, there's a snowball fight going
on. You know how to make a good

166
00:09:47,840 --> 00:09:48,840
snowball?

167
00:09:49,080 --> 00:09:51,300
No. See, you don't know everything.

168
00:09:51,790 --> 00:09:52,790
Let's go.

169
00:09:53,790 --> 00:09:55,570
Don't know everything. Don't know
anything.

170
00:09:56,670 --> 00:10:02,050
Whatever it is that I base my life upon
is falling out from underneath me.

171
00:10:02,370 --> 00:10:03,930
Do you believe in God, Alex?

172
00:10:04,990 --> 00:10:06,430
I don't want to talk to my dad, okay?

173
00:10:06,770 --> 00:10:07,770
I'm sorry.

174
00:10:08,150 --> 00:10:09,150
Go on.

175
00:10:10,310 --> 00:10:11,530
You know what's bothering me?

176
00:10:12,630 --> 00:10:17,690
I mean, really, really bothering me?
Something that I'm having a very

177
00:10:17,690 --> 00:10:18,690
time getting past.

178
00:10:18,730 --> 00:10:19,249
What's that?

179
00:10:19,250 --> 00:10:20,350
I'm paying... you for this

180
00:10:20,350 --> 00:10:28,610
i'm

181
00:10:28,610 --> 00:10:34,370
paying you to sit there and listen to me
i'm paying a guy from grant college

182
00:10:34,370 --> 00:10:39,850
to sit and listen to my life story and
give me advice grant college the school

183
00:10:39,850 --> 00:10:45,710
that gives a course in opening umbrellas
i got an a in that

184
00:10:49,130 --> 00:10:52,770
All right, look, this is pointless. I'm
not getting any answers. I'm not getting

185
00:10:52,770 --> 00:10:53,770
any advice.

186
00:10:54,150 --> 00:10:57,330
I'm just sitting here doing all the
talking, and you're just pulling it out

187
00:10:57,330 --> 00:10:58,870
me. How do you feel about that?

188
00:10:59,290 --> 00:11:00,690
How do you feel about that?

189
00:11:01,350 --> 00:11:02,410
I asked you first.

190
00:11:06,310 --> 00:11:07,570
You're really getting on my nerves.

191
00:11:09,910 --> 00:11:11,330
What is it you want, Alex?

192
00:11:11,750 --> 00:11:13,150
What is it you're looking for?

193
00:11:13,790 --> 00:11:17,930
I just want to feel the way I felt when
I was a little boy.

194
00:11:20,120 --> 00:11:24,580
That feeling of security, that feeling
of safety.

195
00:11:27,140 --> 00:11:32,720
Coming home to my house on a cold, rainy
night, I see the light on in the

196
00:11:32,720 --> 00:11:36,880
kitchen window, and I knew there was no
place else I wanted to be.

197
00:11:38,720 --> 00:11:44,520
The colder I got and the wetter I got,
the more I enjoyed it, because I knew in

198
00:11:44,520 --> 00:11:47,540
two minutes I was going to be in that
kitchen.

199
00:11:49,329 --> 00:11:50,329
Safe and warm.

200
00:11:52,410 --> 00:11:55,090
You know Hemingway's story, A Clean,
Well -Lighted Place?

201
00:11:56,590 --> 00:11:58,710
I can't say I'm familiar with that, no.

202
00:12:00,370 --> 00:12:02,090
That's right, I forgot you went to Grant
College.

203
00:12:03,250 --> 00:12:05,950
All right, okay, let me put it in terms
that you can understand, okay?

204
00:12:07,470 --> 00:12:14,070
You remember when Batman wanted to get
away from it all? Did he go down to the

205
00:12:14,070 --> 00:12:15,070
Batcave?

206
00:12:19,340 --> 00:12:20,400
Uh -huh, yeah.

207
00:12:25,880 --> 00:12:29,840
That was the feeling, walking into that
kitchen. I mean, walking in there was

208
00:12:29,840 --> 00:12:31,180
like walking into a hug.

209
00:12:33,480 --> 00:12:34,680
I'll tell you a little secret.

210
00:12:36,700 --> 00:12:43,280
Sometimes I'd fake a little cough, a
little sneeze, a little

211
00:12:43,280 --> 00:12:46,660
sniffle, just to get a little extra
attention.

212
00:12:49,240 --> 00:12:50,240
Hey, who did it hurt?

213
00:12:51,120 --> 00:12:51,719
That's you.

214
00:12:51,720 --> 00:12:52,399
That's you.

215
00:12:52,400 --> 00:12:53,400
You all right, honey?

216
00:12:55,520 --> 00:12:57,780
Oh, I'm fine, Bobby. I just got a little
cold.

217
00:13:05,440 --> 00:13:09,560
You come on in here. I got your blanket
ready for you. Oh, Bobby, stop. Don't go

218
00:13:09,560 --> 00:13:10,560
to all this trouble.

219
00:13:12,480 --> 00:13:13,480
It's no trouble.

220
00:13:13,500 --> 00:13:14,500
You just sit here.

221
00:13:14,580 --> 00:13:15,980
I'm going to make you some hot
chocolate.

222
00:13:26,190 --> 00:13:27,109
hot chocolate.

223
00:13:27,110 --> 00:13:29,730
One more sneeze, I get whipped cream.

224
00:13:31,530 --> 00:13:31,949
Alex,

225
00:13:31,950 --> 00:13:38,810
are you

226
00:13:38,810 --> 00:13:40,430
just faking being sick again?

227
00:13:41,530 --> 00:13:44,710
You're just jealous, Mal, because you
can't pull it off.

228
00:13:45,470 --> 00:13:47,270
See, I know how to do these things
collectively.

229
00:13:48,570 --> 00:13:50,950
A little cough, a little sniffle.

230
00:13:51,690 --> 00:13:53,150
You come in and say, I've got malaria.

231
00:13:54,350 --> 00:13:55,590
Can I have some hot chocolate?

232
00:13:58,990 --> 00:14:00,890
Thank you, Bobby. I'm feeling much
better now.

233
00:14:02,770 --> 00:14:03,850
Would you like some cookies?

234
00:14:04,590 --> 00:14:06,310
Oh, Bobby, stop it, okay?

235
00:14:07,370 --> 00:14:08,450
You're spoiling me.

236
00:14:09,250 --> 00:14:10,250
What kind?

237
00:14:12,710 --> 00:14:14,910
I'm your mommy. I can spoil you if I
like.

238
00:14:15,290 --> 00:14:16,290
Chocolate chip?

239
00:14:16,470 --> 00:14:17,470
Butterscotch.

240
00:14:21,650 --> 00:14:23,430
Did you have a good day at kindergarten
today?

241
00:14:24,930 --> 00:14:25,930
I was okay.

242
00:14:26,150 --> 00:14:27,150
We made pictures.

243
00:14:32,460 --> 00:14:33,460
This is beautiful.

244
00:14:33,640 --> 00:14:36,060
This is the nicest picture you've ever
given me.

245
00:14:36,780 --> 00:14:37,780
Thank you, Mommy.

246
00:14:38,140 --> 00:14:39,860
I was thinking about you when I bought
it.

247
00:14:47,100 --> 00:14:48,680
You bought it?

248
00:14:49,840 --> 00:14:50,840
Uh -huh.

249
00:14:50,900 --> 00:14:51,900
Roger Zimmerman.

250
00:14:52,200 --> 00:14:53,960
He's the most talented artist in our
class.

251
00:14:55,020 --> 00:14:56,180
Nothing's too good for my mommy.

252
00:14:59,140 --> 00:15:01,380
Oh, Mommy, Bobby, Bobby, can we sing
this song?

253
00:15:04,820 --> 00:15:11,820
Where is Thumpkin? Where is Thumpkin?
Here I am.

254
00:15:12,160 --> 00:15:13,960
Here I am.

255
00:15:14,280 --> 00:15:16,380
How are you this morning?

256
00:15:16,860 --> 00:15:20,400
Very well, I thank you. Run and hide.

257
00:15:20,720 --> 00:15:22,540
Run and hide.

258
00:15:23,140 --> 00:15:25,520
Where is Thumpkin?

259
00:15:25,740 --> 00:15:29,880
That was the sweetest taste of hot
chocolate I ever had in my life.

260
00:15:31,800 --> 00:15:34,740
I'm never going to feel that safe again.

261
00:15:36,160 --> 00:15:37,160
Not protected.

262
00:15:39,160 --> 00:15:40,260
Hey, Alex.

263
00:15:43,160 --> 00:15:44,160
Hi, Nick.

264
00:15:45,320 --> 00:15:46,320
What are you doing here?

265
00:15:47,080 --> 00:15:48,360
What do you mean, what am I doing here?

266
00:15:48,740 --> 00:15:50,240
These are all the people in your life,
right?

267
00:15:50,760 --> 00:15:51,760
I'm in your life.

268
00:15:53,140 --> 00:15:54,700
Nick, I'm paying this guy by the hour.

269
00:15:57,240 --> 00:16:00,240
Okay? I don't want to use up any of my
time talking to you.

270
00:16:02,670 --> 00:16:04,370
You think you got nothing to learn from
me, Alex?

271
00:16:04,630 --> 00:16:06,690
Huh? You don't think I ain't got nothing
to teach you?

272
00:16:07,510 --> 00:16:08,429
No, Nick.

273
00:16:08,430 --> 00:16:10,750
I don't think you ain't got nothing to
teach me.

274
00:16:11,910 --> 00:16:13,950
Alex! What kind of grammar is that?

275
00:16:15,150 --> 00:16:16,150
Sorry, Mrs. Leahy.

276
00:16:17,650 --> 00:16:18,930
You're trying to make a point here.

277
00:16:22,890 --> 00:16:25,790
Come on, go away, will you, okay? You're
getting me into trouble. Hey, hey, hey.

278
00:16:25,850 --> 00:16:28,510
You are just afraid of this side of me
and you.

279
00:16:29,350 --> 00:16:31,290
There is no side of you and me, Nick.

280
00:16:31,530 --> 00:16:32,530
Sure there is.

281
00:16:33,310 --> 00:16:35,830
Born to be wild.

282
00:16:40,010 --> 00:16:42,610
Born to be wild.

283
00:16:48,250 --> 00:16:49,350
Alex, can you come in?

284
00:16:51,410 --> 00:16:52,470
Just studying, Mom.

285
00:16:55,970 --> 00:17:00,030
Fabulous report card, Alex. Oh, thanks,
Dad. Listen to what your teacher wrote

286
00:17:00,030 --> 00:17:01,030
in your paper.

287
00:17:01,200 --> 00:17:04,040
Alex knows more about economics than
most people in America.

288
00:17:04,859 --> 00:17:08,440
I'm assuming this paper deserves an A. I
don't fully understand it.

289
00:17:12,520 --> 00:17:13,760
We're very proud of you, son.

290
00:17:13,960 --> 00:17:14,960
Very proud.

291
00:17:17,160 --> 00:17:19,839
I didn't know you liked rock music,
Alex.

292
00:17:20,839 --> 00:17:22,760
I don't like rock music, Melanie.

293
00:17:23,339 --> 00:17:25,760
I heard you playing rock music last
night.

294
00:17:26,900 --> 00:17:29,480
Deppenwolf and Jim Morrison and the
Doors.

295
00:17:30,000 --> 00:17:31,980
Greg likes Jim Morrison in the doors,
not me.

296
00:18:05,680 --> 00:18:07,960
Okay, don't forget to bring my homework,
okay? Don't I always?

297
00:18:09,080 --> 00:18:13,320
Hey, hey, hey, my dad said he might get
tickets for us to the Indians game on

298
00:18:13,320 --> 00:18:16,660
Sunday. Your dad is the greatest. Can he
get a ticket for my brother, too?

299
00:18:17,020 --> 00:18:18,140
Wait, don't go.

300
00:18:18,760 --> 00:18:19,760
Huh?

301
00:18:20,640 --> 00:18:21,339
Don't go.

302
00:18:21,340 --> 00:18:24,320
Okay, don't walk out that door. Don't
go. I gotta go. My mom made supper.

303
00:18:24,580 --> 00:18:27,900
No, no, don't leave, okay? Don't leave.
Just stay here in this room with me

304
00:18:27,900 --> 00:18:29,900
forever. Alex, this is so sudden.

305
00:18:35,820 --> 00:18:36,820
Just listen to me, okay?

306
00:18:37,220 --> 00:18:38,920
Okay? Because I can't bear to see you
go.

307
00:18:39,460 --> 00:18:42,820
Alex, two 14 -year -old guys should be
able to say goodbye without crying.

308
00:18:43,040 --> 00:18:44,040
No, you're not 14.

309
00:18:44,420 --> 00:18:45,420
I'm not.

310
00:18:46,160 --> 00:18:47,340
No, well, you are now.

311
00:18:47,660 --> 00:18:48,660
You are now.

312
00:18:49,000 --> 00:18:53,360
But in a blink, you're going to be 21
like me.

313
00:18:54,060 --> 00:18:55,060
You're 21.

314
00:18:55,580 --> 00:18:58,600
And you're going to walk out the front
door to this house, and you're going to

315
00:18:58,600 --> 00:19:00,140
get killed in a car accident.

316
00:19:00,940 --> 00:19:02,860
Alex, a simple have a nice day will do.

317
00:19:03,920 --> 00:19:04,920
Don't go.

318
00:19:05,600 --> 00:19:06,600
Don't go.

319
00:19:09,040 --> 00:19:10,080
It's not fair.

320
00:19:11,000 --> 00:19:12,160
It's not fair.

321
00:19:14,640 --> 00:19:16,080
Craig should not be dead.

322
00:19:17,420 --> 00:19:18,880
He never hurt anybody.

323
00:19:20,880 --> 00:19:21,880
Why?

324
00:19:22,480 --> 00:19:23,480
Why?

325
00:19:24,260 --> 00:19:25,960
Don't worry about it, Alex.

326
00:19:26,320 --> 00:19:28,720
Hey. I'm just a kid.

327
00:19:29,540 --> 00:19:30,580
You're special.

328
00:19:32,420 --> 00:19:33,500
Keep trying.

329
00:19:34,090 --> 00:19:34,949
Play fair.

330
00:19:34,950 --> 00:19:35,970
We're proud of you, honey.

331
00:19:36,310 --> 00:19:37,730
Lie down. Take a nap.

332
00:19:45,550 --> 00:19:48,030
Why are you crying, Alex? Are you going
to owie?

333
00:19:48,830 --> 00:19:51,090
Yeah. Yeah, sort of.

334
00:19:51,450 --> 00:19:53,410
Want me to kiss it to make it better?

335
00:19:54,770 --> 00:19:55,770
I sure do.

336
00:20:06,350 --> 00:20:10,010
Pretty soon, okay? Pretty soon. I just
have a few loose ends to tie up.

337
00:20:10,290 --> 00:20:12,370
I'm going to go home and get some more
chocolate.

338
00:20:15,450 --> 00:20:17,570
That's me.

339
00:20:25,450 --> 00:20:26,570
17 years ago.

340
00:20:27,930 --> 00:20:33,870
It just makes me think how much I've
been through in my life already and

341
00:20:33,870 --> 00:20:35,530
what it's all meant.

342
00:20:43,240 --> 00:20:45,240
I don't mean I don't want to die young.

343
00:20:47,020 --> 00:20:48,360
I don't want to die middle -aged.

344
00:20:49,520 --> 00:20:50,560
I don't want to die old.

345
00:20:51,720 --> 00:20:52,720
I don't want to die.

346
00:20:54,500 --> 00:20:56,920
Ever. Do you believe in God, Alex?

347
00:21:00,720 --> 00:21:02,380
That's what this all comes down to,
right?

348
00:21:03,460 --> 00:21:04,460
Doesn't it?

349
00:21:06,160 --> 00:21:07,540
That's what I'm trying to figure out
here.

350
00:21:11,160 --> 00:21:18,090
Because... Because if there is a God,
then somehow this all

351
00:21:18,090 --> 00:21:19,650
makes sense. I mean, there's got to be a
reason.

352
00:21:21,630 --> 00:21:27,990
Some master plan in which Greg's dying
and my living makes sense. What do you

353
00:21:27,990 --> 00:21:28,990
think?

354
00:21:31,770 --> 00:21:33,790
The analytical side of me says no.

355
00:21:37,330 --> 00:21:40,270
On a straight cost efficiency basis.

356
00:21:41,830 --> 00:21:48,290
can't prove it there's no annual report
there's no pictures of the board of

357
00:21:48,290 --> 00:21:50,710
directors i mean recent ones

358
00:21:50,710 --> 00:21:57,610
and and

359
00:21:57,610 --> 00:22:00,370
and there's a lot of things that just
cannot be accounted for

360
00:22:00,370 --> 00:22:07,090
but then there are these miraculous

361
00:22:07,090 --> 00:22:08,090
things

362
00:22:10,320 --> 00:22:17,300
phenomena of nature like uh like
mountains and oceans and

363
00:22:17,300 --> 00:22:23,980
skippy getting dressed by himself and
and and you gotta think that somebody's

364
00:22:23,980 --> 00:22:29,900
helping out with that the answer is yes

365
00:22:29,900 --> 00:22:34,880
i do believe in god

366
00:22:37,960 --> 00:22:40,520
Not a mean, not a mean, angry God.

367
00:22:41,020 --> 00:22:42,760
Like the God you see on TV.

368
00:22:43,040 --> 00:22:46,880
You know, the preachers and always
asking you to send them money.

369
00:22:49,420 --> 00:22:54,340
And not a groovy God.

370
00:22:55,300 --> 00:22:56,600
Like Mallory's God.

371
00:22:58,440 --> 00:23:00,520
Matching sweatpants and headband.

372
00:23:03,340 --> 00:23:07,550
And not a God like Brother Timothy's God
either. Because I just... I can't

373
00:23:07,550 --> 00:23:10,010
believe that God meant me to stay away
from girls.

374
00:23:12,370 --> 00:23:14,270
If he did, he wouldn't have made me so
cute.

375
00:23:19,890 --> 00:23:25,370
I think God is gentle.

376
00:23:26,830 --> 00:23:28,890
And forgiving.

377
00:23:32,090 --> 00:23:34,870
And not one special form, you know?

378
00:23:37,100 --> 00:23:38,160
One day he's a dolphin.

379
00:23:40,540 --> 00:23:44,380
Next day, he's trading shares on Wall
Street.

380
00:23:47,880 --> 00:23:51,680
It'd be funny if one day he got mixed up
and went to Wall Street as a dolphin.

381
00:23:54,520 --> 00:23:58,700
You surprised me, Alex. I didn't think
you really would believe a bottom -line

382
00:23:58,700 --> 00:23:59,700
guy like yourself.

383
00:24:00,960 --> 00:24:03,740
Yeah, well, well, part of me is a little
nervous about it.

384
00:24:04,940 --> 00:24:07,280
I mean, I like to know what I know.

385
00:24:09,120 --> 00:24:10,120
See it.

386
00:24:11,100 --> 00:24:17,180
Be able to prove it on a test. To know
it, to learn it, and be done. And I just

387
00:24:17,180 --> 00:24:20,920
got a feeling they'd keep getting tested
on this one.

388
00:24:21,840 --> 00:24:22,880
So what do you do now?

389
00:24:28,880 --> 00:24:29,880
Craig's dead.

390
00:24:31,740 --> 00:24:32,740
And I'm alive.

391
00:24:34,700 --> 00:24:36,060
And I can't change that.

392
00:24:40,940 --> 00:24:42,540
But I can keep his memory alive.

393
00:24:45,940 --> 00:24:52,140
I can take his sense of humor and his

394
00:24:52,140 --> 00:24:59,000
energy and his warmth and I can make it
my own.

395
00:25:02,760 --> 00:25:07,720
I can be the best Alex Keaton that I can
be. And I can use the gifts that I've

396
00:25:07,720 --> 00:25:08,720
been given.

397
00:25:09,480 --> 00:25:15,320
And I can take time to appreciate the
beauty in this life.

398
00:25:21,280 --> 00:25:24,380
And I can... I can be gentle.

399
00:25:26,460 --> 00:25:27,700
And I can be...

400
00:25:34,220 --> 00:25:35,220
a lot of money.

401
00:25:37,080 --> 00:25:40,120
Because, well, I'm sure God wants me to.

402
00:25:40,620 --> 00:25:42,720
Because if he didn't, he wouldn't have
made me so smart.

403
00:25:47,140 --> 00:25:49,220
I want to talk a little bit more.

404
00:25:49,560 --> 00:25:52,460
Do we still have time? Yeah, sure. Sit
down. All right.

405
00:25:53,120 --> 00:25:56,680
Okay. I got so much in my head now, I
don't know where to start.

406
00:25:57,340 --> 00:25:58,340
Start from the beginning.

407
00:25:59,880 --> 00:26:03,100
My name is Alex Keaton.

408
00:26:40,170 --> 00:26:41,210
Sit, Ubu, sit.

409
00:26:41,650 --> 00:26:42,650
Good dog.
