I'm not interested in what ye've got to say!
'Hello, Dad!
' Hello!
She looks smashing, doesn't she?
'Hi, Grandpa!
' Listen to their accents.
- Hi, Jack!
- That's Tony, boy.
'What's going on over here?
...
Jack and Stephen are cooking burgers!
'How many burgers are you cooking?
Five.
Why five?
'Cos we're cooking one for you, Grandad!
Can you smell that?
'Take a bite!
'
Looks smashing.
They've done you a burger, Jack.
What's the matter, Jack?
Ach, nothing.
That tape caught me off guard there, that's all.
Seeing the size of the grand-weans, and that.
Always the same.
Every time she sends me one of these tapes
I sit doon, all excited, and then it just depresses me.
What does?
Missing them and that, you know.
I should have bloody emigrated with them, when they asked me.
|
Aye.
I sometimes wish I'd done that with my John in Johannesburg... but...ach...ye cannae, can ye?
Suppose they end up moving again?
That's YOU to move again.
And yer just following them roon like a pup.
That's not life.
Naw, it isnae.
Oor life's here.
Aye.
Pish, eh?
Aye, it's pish.
Come on, we'll get a pint.
"Matthew."
No, it doesnae look like a Matthew.
How many did you take?
Three.
Patch...
Fido and Rex.
Fly bastard.
Ye've swiped all the good dug names and left us wi' all the shite.
What can I say?
I'm the landlord.
It's my caird.
"Richard..." Richard the dog?
Chris...
Chris.
I'll take Christopher.
Chris the dug.
Oh, look who it is.
Batman and Robin!
|
Aye.
We'll accept that, if you go Catwoman, ya pussy.
Jack, Victor.
Harry's back.
Aw, no, yer joking?
Name the dug.
I've two left.
We're no wantin' a dug.
It's an electric dug.
A dug wi' a plug?
It runs on batteries.
Naw!
Bloody daft, electric dug.
It's for charity.
How much?
50p a name.
I'll take the last two.
Right, Matthew or Richard?
Matthew.
Matt the dug.
And I'll take Richard.
Dick the dug.
Ye can get done for that.
Isa!
Isa, sweetheart!
Please!
Stay away fae me, Harry.
I've telt ye already.
I know, darling.
The last thing I want is to be hassling ye.
|
But I'm down a hole.
I've got nowhere to go!
Harry, all my life, ye've cheated on me, lied to me, even stole from me.
And I've taken ye back time and time again and for what?
Only for you to leave me.
I'll not be made a laughing stock any more!
So ye'd leave me standin' here?
Homeless?
Like a dug in the street?
Without the price of a pint?
Here.
This isnae a loan, Harry.
It's a gift.
And it's the last gift ye'll ever get from me!
Isa, I don't need to remind you...
my name's on that door.
I'll buy a new name plate, then!
Let's stop playing games, Isa!
I love you!
Well, I don't love YOU!
I've met someone else.
What?
Who?
None of your business!
Now, leave me alone!
Sherry, Bobby.
All right, Isa?
Naw.
Harry's back.
Aye, we know.
|
And that's not all!
I've telt him I've got a fella!
Eh?
Your sherry.
Lager, please, Bobby.
Allow me, sweetheart.
I'm paying for Isa's, Harry.
You're the new fella?
That's right.
Cracking woman.
Bit of a gabshite, but generally lovely.
Er...
Bobby, who's won the dug?
Looks like I have.
Eh?
Nothing.
Scrape it aff.
Attention, everybody!
The winner of the Name-the-dog competition is...
Matthew.
Smashing.
Gies my dug.
Come here, Matthew.
ELECTRONIC YAPPING Is that it?
Ye've got to give it commands.
Train it and that.
Matthew...bite his baws!
What time is it there?
It's half past eight here.
...Aye, I got it.
|
I'm just after watching it.
It was absolutely fantastic.
Jack and Stephen look a right handful.
Aye, oh, aye.
Have you lost weight?
You're not as broad in the arse as ye used to be!
I'm only winding ye up, God's sake!
Aye, I'm fine.
Aye, I've never been rosier.
Victor?
Aye, he's fine and all.
He's got a dug now.
Eh?
No, not a real dug.
No, it's a gold dug.
Eh?
Och, never mind.
It's just a gold...a gold...
Awf, I don't know about that.
When were you thinking?
Oh, well, that's a bit soon.
Can I think aboot it?
Oh, right.
I don't know.
The morra?
...I'll phone you the morra.
Right.
Eh?
Oh, no, that's fine, then.
No, that's fine.
|
I'll speak to you the morra.
All right?
See you then.
Canada...
BUZZ!
Oh-ho.
Here we go.
Morning, Navid.
Morning, Harry.
20 Benson and Hedges.
I hear my Isa's, er...
hooked up with Winston.
How do you mean, hooked up?
Going out...together.
Winston and Isa?
That's a belter, right enough!
Winston hates Isa.
Naw, Harry.
Check your Y-fronts.
Someone's pulling your pisser.
20 Benson and Hedges.
Ye couldnae possibly let me have them on the...?
No, no, no, no, no.
Sorry did I say no there?
I meant to say NO!
C'mon, Navid.
Isa'll gie ye the money back.
Jesus.
Tapping Isa in her absence.
Unbelievable.
|
It's only 20 fags, Navid.
Do you see buttons, a zipper, Velcro, or any other fastening device?
No!
Sling yer hook, ye panhandling bastard.
How long have I to walk aboot with ye?
I'm choking for a pint.
Lager?
At this time of day?
We've only been going oot two minutes and yer nagging already!
I want a divorce!
It's just for a couple of days, Winston...
Hello.
Hello.
...till Harry gets the message.
It's the message everybody else is getting I'm worried about.
Oh, God!
Give us yer arm.
Nae touching.
That is not part of the deal.
Please!
Right.
Harry.
Isa...
Winston.
Harry.
Thanks for walking me to my work...
Pumpkin.
Pumpkin?
Oh, nae problem, pumpkin.
Now, away and get yersel' a pint.
|
A pint?
Oh, that's a rare idea.
It's not many girlfriends that let you go for a pint. ...
Is it, Harry?
No, it is not!
Don't make anything for tonight's tea.
I'll bring in yer favourite.
Ohh, my favourite!
Which is a sausage supper.
I know that!
I know you know that.
Well, then... goodbye, Winston.
Jesus!
Eh...
That was smashing!
Yum-yum!
Wag yer wee tail.
Naw?
Bark!
Nothing.
Are ye hungry?
Listen, are ye hungry?
"Clap your hands and the dug will flip."
Flip!
Flip!
Hey-ho.
Hello, Jack.
How are ye getting on with the wee dug?
Och, not so well.
I think he's depressed.
|
Depressed?
Your plastic dug's depressed?
Look, it says here, if ye dinnae tend to it, it gets depressed.
A boy skated by here five minutes ago and wee Matthew here wandered out in front of him.
He's suicidal!
You can help do it in.
Aye.
Take his wee batteries out.
Euthanasia.
Very funny.
Where have ye been, anyway?
Eh?
Thomsons, the travel agents.
I'm going to visit my Fiona.
I'm going to Canada.
Yer no'!
For a wee holiday?
Aye.
A fortnight.
That's smashin'.
Good for you.
When are ye going?
Next Friday.
Jesus!
That's quick.
I was gonnae say, why don't you go and see your John in Jo'burg?
That'll save you sitting about on yer arse while I'm away.
Eh?
I cannae drop that on them.
Pish!
|
Gie them a phone.
Never you mind about me.
I'll be fine.
Why don't ye come wi' me, then?
Jack, give it a rest!
I'm no' daft.
I'll no' go to rack and ruin in the fortnight yer away!
Fiona's always asking after ye.
They'd be glad to see ye.
Naw, Jack.
Promise me you'll phone your John?
Aye, all right.
Canada, eh?
Must be chuffed.
Aye.
Jack Jarvis Esquire.
Canada bound!
It flipped because I clapped.
It says here!
Rubbish.
I clapped and it did hee-haw.
He's low.
He's no' coming out of himself.
He's no' happy.
You know why that is?
How?
It's cos he's not got a cock.
Shut up!
I'm telling ye.
That's why Action Man's face is always tripping him.
|
Don't listen to him, Matthew.
So?
So what?
Are you phoning your John?
Eh?
Oh...naw.
Come on, get him phoned.
Tell him you want to come out next week.
I know what he'll say.
What? "Naw."
Ye don't know that for sure.
Aye, I dae.
He's always letting me doon.
He's no' like your Fiona.
He'll say naw.
Right, I'll put the kettle on.
Why don't you just phone him and tell him yer wanting a wee holiday?
Hello.
John?
Aye, it's your da.
How's it going, son?
Aye, good, good.
...No, no, nothing, nothing.
I was just gonnae say...
Jack's going to Canada.
...Aye.
And I was thinking...
No, no...
No, I was gonnae come and see youse, you know, rather than sit on my arse for a fortnight while Jack's away.
End of next week.
|
Aye, I know it's soon, aye.
Wee bit last minute, eh?
Well, what aboot the following week, then?
Are ye?
Ach, well.
Not at all.
I thought it might be tight...
Well, when would be best?
To come over?
Right, I'll phone ye.
Naw, naw, I've gotta go.
There's somebody at the door.
Eh?
I know.
No, I know.
Gie my best to the boy, eh?
...Right.
I'll see ye now.
How did that go?
How did that go?
Lousy.
That's how it went, stupid bastard.
How am I a stupid bastard?
I told you he'd say no but you're at me - "Phone him, phone him!"
Happy now?
I've phoned him and he's chased me.
Maybe he's busy, Victor.
Aye, I could hear the wheels turning, trying to think up a reason.
What was the reason?
A convention in Cape Town.
|
Lot of shite.
Well, that's that, then.
Just come with me.
My Fiona says...
Your Fiona.
Your Fiona.
That's right, your Fiona's an angel, eh?
"Come over, Dad, and bring as many of your sad old pals as ye want."
Wait a minute!
No, YOU wait a minute!
I'm not a charity case!
I was doing fine till you brought all this up!
Now, look, Victor...
I know fine how much my boy isnae interested in me.
But YOU railroaded me into being reminded of the fact!
I thought you needed a holiday!
I'll be getting a holiday - from YOU!
Fine!
Good!
DOOR SLAMS ...Oh, Matthew!
# She may be the face I can't forget
# A trace of pleasure or regret
# May be my treasure or the price I have to pay
# She may be the song that summer sings
# May be the chill that autumn brings
# May be a hundred tearful things
# Within the measure of a day
# She may be the beauty or the beast
# May be the famine or the feast
# May turn each day into heaven or hell
|
# She may be... # SONG FADES
Goldie, Bobby.
You obviously didnae get that in here.
That looks edible.
Don't ask.
Is Harry still hangin' aboot?
Aye.
Like a shadow.
He's playing pool the noo.
He's waiting for us to slip up.
How long's that been?
A week noo.
It's not that.
Every night I've tae walk her hame, and sit for an hour to make sure creepy-breeks isn't hanging about.
How's things wi' you and Victor?
Still no' talking?
Naw.
And I'm no' wanting it to drag on cos I'm away in the morning.
Pint of lager, please, Bobby.
I'll get that.
Thanks, Jack.
So, er...away in the morning, eh?
Aye.
It would have been good if you could have came with us.
Aye, well, maybe next time, eh?
Listen, I didnae mean to force ye into phoning your John, you know.
Jack...my son cannae be arsed, and I shouldnae be taking that out on you.
How's wee Matthew?
That arsehole?
!
|
Two hours I lost him for yesterday.
Where did I find him?
In the oven!
Tried to gas himself?
Aye.
Are you no' taking a pint?
Naw.
I've packing to dae.
Och, take a wee pint.
Just to see you off.
Aye, all right.
Am I not to get one?
Naw.
Too many pints affects yer performance!
Right enough, Bobby!
...
C'mon, you!
You're nae use to me all floppy!
Floppy?
!
Where the hell did that come fae?
I'm sorry, Winston!
It was oot before I realised!
Harry was was making me all jumpy.
He must have the message by now.
So I'm off the hook, we can get back to wur ain thing.
It's not been that bad, has it?
I've always got a drink in, and ye enjoy my sandwiches and cakes!
And we've had a good laugh tae!
When?
|
The other night, we were watching the news, and Jackie Bird came on and I said, "Do you think when her and her man are starting to make love, she shouts, 'This just in!
' "
DOORBELL Oh, God!
Who's that?
It might be Harry!
Calm doon.
...C'mon.
It's him, right enough.
What'll we dae?
Just ignore it.
He'll go away!
KEYS RATTLE IN LOCK He's still got his keys!
(Jesus!
)
Isa?
Isa!
Isa, sweetheart!
There's nothing floppy here!
I knew fae the beginning.
Nae offence, Winston, but you're hardly a match.
The lengths I've went to to get the message across.
I know, darlin'.
It's finished.
Can ye no' just accept it?
I'll see myself out.
Goodbye, Isa.
Goodbye, Harry.
How are ye?
Aye, good.
Looking forward to the flight?
|
I'll wait and see who's sitting here first.
You generally get an arsehole on a long-haul flight.
Oh, naw!
The windae seat!
I've got a weak bladder, an' all!
I'll be up and doon like a bloody yo-yo!
New York, eh?
Eh?
Only kidding, son!
Toronto!
Yer not supposed to drink yer ain, but I'm not waiting an hour for that bevvy trolley to come up!
A wee dram?
No, yer all right.
Is there a film?
But I'll no' be paying for headphones.
I said I'll no' pay for headphones!
# Come fly with me!
Float down to Peru!
#
Look at these people, they look like ants!
Oh, they ARE ants!
We've not taken off yet!
14A?
come on.
Victor!
All right, Jack?
You're a fly bastard!
I booked it yesterday.
I'm no' sittin' on my arse for two weeks while you have a guid time!
Oh, not the windae seat!
|
I've got a weak bladder, an all.
I'll be up and doon like a bloody yo-yo!
New York, eh?
Toronto...
Aye, Toronto.
Jeezo.
WOOF!
Oh!
Woof!
Oh!
Happy wee thing, eh?
Aye!
Let's see...
Sorry to keep you waiting.
I-is this Lt. Col. Roy Mustang?
My humble name is Edward Elric...
Humble?
You don't have to be so tense.
R-right!
We'll be boarding the 9:20 train bound for Central.
Roger.
Er, hold on...
There's one before that, isn't there?
- Yes there is, but it sounds like it's already leaving.
- Now departing!
Now departing!
Get on that one.
But why...?
Just hop aboard that one!
|
Al!
We're getting on!
Hurry!
I'm testing their luck.
Man cannot obtain anything without first sacrificing something.
In order to obtain anything, something of equal value is required.
That is alchemy's Law of Equivalent Exchange.
At the time, we believed that to be the true way of the world.
I don't get Lt. Col. Mustang.
I wonder what kind of person he is.
Brother, am I scary?
No, I wouldn't say-
Say, there's someone strange over there!
Strange?
Marin, that's not nice.
Keep quiet.
But he's funny!
For him to wear his armor inside the train, he must really like it, huh?
There's nothing particularly strange about us!
There, you see?
She likes you!
Right?
Pretty cool, huh?
There now, Marin, that's enough already.
Looks like they're tired out from too much romping around.
Yes.
I'm so glad that you've been able to travel like this without any incident, General Hakuro.
They said that the situation to the east was unstable, but then, here we are.
My, my, the higher-ups sure do take it easy.
By the way, where is Maj. Hughes right now?
|
He is communicating with Lt. Col. Mustang about that other matter.
That other matter?
Yes...
Well, I hope so...
So, you see... ever since my wife got pregnant, she's becoming more and more pretty...
How should I put it?
She's like an angel who has waltzed her way down to earth-
Huh?
We got cut off again.
What lousy conditions for communications!
I can't do anything with this!
You're the one we can't do anything with!
I'd better make another round if I'm going to keep myself from worrying.
Hello?
My, my...
So, listen, what am I going to do if the baby is born tomorrow?
Hughes...
I've heard this story about fifty times now...
If you want to talk about this, take it up with your wife directly!
I have!
Just a little while ago!
Then don't ask me!
Pardon me for breaking in.
Major, a piece of advice...
The baby won't be born after just five months!
Huh?
What was that?
I can't hear too well over this phone.
That's suspicious...!
That's enough, Hughes.
|
We just got confirmation that there's no one monitoring communications.
So, how about it?
Have you seen anyone suspicious?
No.
Or so I'd like to tell you.
There have been more passengers getting on and off than anticipated.
If you factor in the private rooms...
What is it?
They're here!
They're here?
They're here!
Someone awfully suspicious!
What!
?
They're wearing armor this huge...!
Armor?
That guy is fine.
Is there another pipsqueak together with him?
Pip - ?
He was right!
He is here!
And he really is little!
Who are you calling so puny that you can only make him out under a magnifying glass!
?
No, I was just...
I'm not the one who said so...
Be quiet!
Everyone, get your hands up!
W-why, you...!
Good day, General Hakuro.
|
Hey, Hughes!
What is it?
Has something happened?
Hey, Hughes!
Hey, inform Bald that we have taken the wireless!
It doesn't look like anyone was using it, either!
Is it them, after all?
There's a call for headquarters from General Hakuro aboard the train heading for Central.
It's an emergency.
Put it through.
It's me.
Lt. Colonel?
Is this Lt. Col. Mustang?
This is Bald, of the Eastern Liberation Front "Blue Squad."
We have taken control of this train.
What are your demands?
Don't play dumb!
We suddenly lost contact with one of our allies today.
Someone who was supposed to have delivered a statement to you.
What are you talking about?
Okay, fine.
Bring our leader in Prison No. 8 to Central Station.
We'll exchange prisoners there.
Very well.
In exchange, don't kill anyone.
If you do-
Are you sure about this?
We do have a statement here, but if the general finds out, he's going to ask who was responsible.
No problem.
As long as the situation gets resolved, right?
|
I've already taken sufficient measures.
What is this man Mustang thinking?
If he does anything funny, then it won't just be you!
Consider all of the passengers dead!
Brother...
Yeah...
Hey, you two...
Why, you...!
Hey, now that you've done that, what do we do?
When their buddies come to get back at us for this...
He's right.
If you hadn't resisted, we probably would have gotten to Central without any trouble.
He's right...
What do we do?
You're asking me?
Are you all right!
?
Yes...
Sorry about that.
Your big brothers will take care of this somehow, okay?
Let's go, Al.
Mm-hmm.
Hey, you guys...!
This is embarrassing.
Who on earth are you?
We're just ordinary alchemists.
Really?
I'm Falman.
Warrant Officer.
A soldier?
|
You don't look at all like one!
There's a reason why I'm dressed like this.
You see, up in the first car...
Then, that's who the criminals are after...?
And they're dragging all the others into it!
Al, I'll go at them from above.
You take them from below, with this man.
Mm-hmm.
W-what?
Hey!
Come quick!
There's something funny going on behind us!
Ah!
You'd better not shoot!
I was about to tell you that you risked ricochets by shooting.
What's going on!
?
Ah!
You'd better not shoot!
Hey, Bald!
Contact from behind us has been cut off!
What's going on!
?
So, you did have something set up, did you?
G-give up, already.
Turn yourselves over, and release the other passengers.
Things just aren't going to go your way this time!
Darling!
We're the only ones giving orders here, General.
Check all of the cars on this train again!
|
And examine the outside of the cars, too!
Hey, are you all right?
I'm surprised you got this far.
I'm Hughes.
Edward Elric, right?
Huh?
Y-yes...!
I heard about you from Lt. Col. Mustang.
From the Lt. Colonel!
?
Yeah.
Now then, you'll work with me.
I've already checked things out below us.
What's the matter?
Who are you-?
There you are, there you are.
Take this!
Are you all right!
?
What!
?
Whoa, that was awesome!
Hey, you!
Don't mess around with the tender!
It's the life of this train!
Yeah, sorry!
Tender, huh?
You can't, Bald!
There's someone outrageous up there!
Bald!
|
Contact with everywhere else has been cut off!
They said something about a big suit of armor!
Don't get excited!
You guys in the criminal group.
Can you hear me?
What's... that?
All right, you guys!
Threaten everyone else, will you!
?
Let the hostages go!
Are you one of Mustang's secret agents!
?
If you interfere, I'll kill the hostages, one by one!
Oh, you're just itching to do it, huh?
Well, then...
A water... pipe...?
Okay, hostages, please take cover!
What!
?
Welcome!
All right, don't move.
You're the ringleader, aren't you?
What's the matter?
Come on out.
Damn...!
Before I kill the general, I'll take care of you!
Hold it!
A fellow automailer, huh?
A brat like you...?
Is the military using even children now?
|
You'll pay for that "brat" line!
And I'm not being used by anyone!
Kid, let me tell you something.
I used to be in the military, long ago.
At the time, I thought I wanted to be better armed.
But the military didn't seem to like that idea.
They were afraid of me becoming any stronger on my own.
Shortly after I had this operation, they got rid of me.
And so... and so...
I wanted to crush the military!
You understand, don't you?
If you've got an arm like that, then you must have wanted it too!
You wanted to be stronger than anyone else!
No, I don't understand!
And don't you lump my arm in... with yours!
Good grief, that was something else.
Don't kill anyone.
That's what I told you.
As it turns out, it looks like you did as you were told.
You're Mustang, are you?
A-awesome!
I held back.
The effect on your body probably isn't as bad as it looks.
I am Roy Mustang.
My rank is Lt. Colonel, and I am the Flame Alchemist.
Remember that.
He's Mustang...
Brother!
Lt. Colonel!
Why, you... you knew about all of this when you had us get on this train, huh!
|
?
It's not as if I had a grasp of everything.
More importantly, though, I have good news.
His generalship heard about your exploits, and he said he would specially allow you to take the State Alchemist Certification Exam.
Specially?
But, we came because you told us to take it...!
There's no way a child could take such an important military test, you know.
Now, aren't you glad that I had you take this train?
Whether you take the test or not is still up to you.
Of course we're going to take it!
We'll take it, all right!
Apparently, those people had us dancing right in the palm of their hand.
But then, there was no way around it.
We still don't have any power.
There he is!
Over here!
Over here!
Marin!
Big brother, thank you!
Thank you!
Fullmetal Alchemist!
Episode 6: "The State Alchemist Certification Examination"
Everyone but me thinks it's impossible for Brother to pass.
But then, on that day, miraculous flowers will bloom.

Have a good day, detective.
KELLY:
|
Hey.
You think it's time to stop acting like strangers when we go in that door?
You call it.
[PHONE rings]
SERGEANT:
Here you go.
We should think about it, figure how to tell people.
You stand there, and I'll give you a big wet one.
MAN:
Officer Licalsi?
LlCALSl:
Yeah.
MAN:
Phone.
Who's calling you on a pay phone?
-l don't know.
-See you later.
This is Officer Licalsi.
MAN'S voice:
Janice?
-Yeah, who's this?
-Richie.
-Richie, huh?
Richie who?
Richie, you'll meet at the old post office in Long lsland City.
I don't know any Richies.
Why would I meet you?
Take it easy.
Be considerate.
Be like me.
|
I call on this phone so your bosses don't hear how you worked for Mr. M.
Our friend Angelo Marino.
Wasn 't that considerate on my part?
Janice?
-What?
-You still there?
-Yeah.
-So we gonna get together?
Yeah, all right.
-Over the bridge.
-Who do I look for?
You show up. I'll find you.
[PHONE clicks]
Ice Follies
KELLY:
Morning.
-Hey, detective.
How's it going?
KELLY:
It's going okay.
-What's going on?
-Nothing much.
How about with you?
Not too much.
Something you want to talk about, James?
My brother's been out of touch a while.
You know, Roberto.
He's in the rehab program.
He checked out two-and-a-half weeks ago.
He was at the apartment.
|
The phone's off the hook and no answer when I go over.
-How long?
-Couple of days.
Could he be visiting someplace?
I guess he could be.
I don't know where he'd go.
-You got a key to the apartment?
-l gave it back to him.
Have the super let you in.
Maybe he left, or the cat knocked the phone off.
Ease your mind.
Yeah.
He don't have any pets, I mean-- l'll tell you the truth, I'm afraid of what I'll find.
-You want me to go with you?
-l'm afraid something happened to him.
Let's not get ahead of ourselves.
Let's go over.
I appreciate that.
[siren wails]
KELLY:
Come on.
-Thanks.
SUPER:
Sure.
Let me go in first.
See what's what.
MARTlNEZ:
All right.
[DOOR OPENS]
I'm sorry, James.
|
Oh, my God.
My brother's dead!
My little brother.
I'm sorry.
Come here.
Come here.
[PHONE rings]
Yes, I got it all.
An evil energy threatening the galaxy, right.
Also threatening you personally with a laser death squad.
Got it.
I'm not impatient.
We're really busy here with crimes on planet Earth.
Okay, thanks for your phone call.
[SlPOWlCZ CLEARS THROAT]
-Nut case.
-Yeah, I gathered.
All part of my job.
Let's talk in the interview room for a minute.
Sure.
-l do something wrong on that call?
-Don't worry about it, no.
It's just many of your wackos feel the world doesn't understand them.
You want to avoid helping them feel that way.
Don't let on that you feel they're missing a few dots on their dominoes.
Wasn't I sympathetic enough?
Do you think I drove him to some heinous act?
What was the guy's problem who just called?
A power configuration of pure evil called the Galactic Gravity Shelf.
They've sent a laser death squad to kill him.
|
So you work with that.
Here, sit down.
The Gravity Shelf.
The laser death team?
Sounds like a dangerous bunch.
Then you make a couple of suggestions, like... .
Our most effective way in dealing with these death squads...
... isputcoffeegroundsineach corner of your dwelling.
The aroma deranges their senses.
Wear a fedora with aluminum foil inside.
It throws off their beaming device.
Show them they can help themselves.
That's smart.
Maybe if he stops going to UFO conventions, he won't see green men.
Detective Sipowicz, thanks for the help.
Don't mention it, Miss Abandando.
-Want one?
-Thanks.
SlPOWlCZ:
Sure.
-Andy.
SlPOWlCZ:
How's it going?
-Martinez lost his brother.
-Drugs?
-Yeah.
-How's the kid?
He's telling his family.
He's worried.
I'm gonna tell the sergeant.
|
-We got a birthday lunch for Medavoy.
-l'll be down.
Look at Roberts circling Abandando's landing area.
You blame him?
-How's it going?
ROBERTS:
Hey, Andy, how you doing?
-Donna.
-Detective Roberts.
-l was at the Rangers game.
-You too?
Don't you hate ties?
Anyways, I got a souvenir.
A puck.
You caught it off a deflection?
No, I picked it up at the souvenir stand.
-Oh.
-l thought maybe you'd want it.
That's so nice of you.
But why don't you keep it?
-No, go on, take it. lt's my pleasure.
-That's really nice of you.
Thanks.
Maybe you'd go to a game with me sometime.
Some girlfriends and me have season tickets, and we kind of go together.
-Oh.
-Thanks anyway, though.
Oh, sure.
Sure.
-And thanks very much for the puck.
|
-No problem.
Enjoy it.
How'd it go, Roberts?
-She's a dyke.
-What was your tip-off?
-She goes to the games with girlfriends?
-Say no more.
DONNA:
Back from court, Detective Medavoy?
-Happy birthday, old folks.
officer:
Happy birthday.
-l'm 40, not 80.
Hey, Andy.
Joe.
-Can you go to Theresa's for lunch?
-l can make it if you can.
-Kelly'll be down in a second.
We'd buy dinner if you didn't live so far.
Well, the wife likes living in Holbrook.
-Lunch at Theresa's, Miss Abandando.
-Okay.
-Wish this guy a happy birthday.
-Happy birthday, detective.
-He says thanks.
ARCHER:
I'll be back in a couple hours.
-lt's the birthday boy.
-John.
-How does 40 feel?
|
-He was saying all his joints ache.
-l'm Richie, how you doing?
-What do you want?
We want you to get paid again, like when you worked for Marino.
You said that, I don't know where you get that.
So you're here because you wanted some fresh air?
I wanted to know what you were talking about.
My employer's in possession of private records that Angelo Marino kept.
You're on his list, Janice.
Friendly cops.
So stop acting like you still got your cherry.
I never took a cent from Angelo Marino. I was protecting my father.
-You're a good daughter.
-Marino's dead.
My father's dead too.
Life goes on.
You got your own career to think about.
You want to cooperate here.
You don't want any bad publicity.
This journal entry, that's Marino's own handwriting.
-Janice, I'm over here.
-Who do you work for?
That's nothing for you to think about.
Every so often, we'll have a request...
... youjustgetuswhat weneed.
-What kind of requests?
-Easy stuff.
Look at this.
Work up this license plate.
We need his home and business address.
|
Plus the 500 that's in it, it's bad to turn that down.
I'll say you took it anyway and go buy lottery tickets.
-Come on, it's running a license plate.
-l know what we are talking about.
-Have this stuff for me tomorrow.
-Yeah?
I'll let you know what I decide.
Tomorrow.
I'll save us two parking spaces.
Hey, look here, Medavoy.
Senior specials: $2.99.
Ho, ho, ho.
What else did you get for your birthday?
I got this from the kids.
And this from the wife.
ARCHER:
How'd you handle hitting 40, Andy?
As far as I remember, I dedicated that year to Seagram's 7.
To tell the truth, it's been a bit of a hurdle.
[BEEPlNG]
MEDAVOY:
It's been kind of a hurdle.
-How's 40 been a hurdle, Medavoy?
KELLY:
Back in a minute.
MEDAVOY:
I don't know.
-lt starts sneaking up on you sort of.
KELLY:
Got a phone?
|
You start looking over your shoulder a little bit, start looking ahead...
... lookingback.
Start asking, what did I accomplish?
I mean, I got no complaints.
I got Marie and the girls.
We got that land in Florida.
Everything goes okay...
... I'llbuildon that in four or five years.
-You're good at carpentry, right?
-Yeah. I'll start building on that.
What is this, a birthday lunch or a wake?
Andy and I got to take off.
Martinez's situation.
-Need help?
-We're all right.
-Hey, happy birthday.
-Thanks, John.
Thanks, Andy.
Keep up those cheerful thoughts, man.
SlPOWlCZ:
What's going on?
-Martinez called.
Said the father's after the dealer who sold the drugs.
And he's got a gun.
SlPOWlCZ:
Great.
KELLY:
Think they made you?
-Yeah.
But he doesn't think I'm into his stuff.
|
KELLY:
What's going on, James?
I told my father at his work about what happened to Roberto.
Said he was going to the funeral home, and I was supposed to tell my mother.
I was with my mother, and Joey Gonzales calls.
-l busted that kid.
-l grew up with him.
He said my father came and beat him up, saying:
"Who sold drugs to Roberto?"
Joey said he didn't, out of respect to our family.
But he named Brick Top over there, and my father asked where to buy a gun.
-This is Brick Top?
-Yeah.
I'm afraid my father will do something bad.
-Doesn't look like he's holding.
-He has kids that hold it.
Let's grab this asshole anyways.
We'll get him off the street.
-The kids with the drugs are booking.
-Let them go.
[KELLY whistles]
KELLY:
Yo, yo.
Hey, hey.
Hey!
Brick Top!
Come here!
Get out of here.
You're going in.
-What's this?
|
-You're going in!
brick TOP:
What for?
SlPOWlCZ:
Mopery, two counts!
MARTlNEZ:
Get out!
-You want some?
Get out!
There's my father.
KELLY:
Get him to the car.
-Mr.
Martinez?
MARTlNEZ:
What are you doing?
We met before.
Sorry about what happened, sir.
-Don't put your hands on me.
-l gotta check for a weapon.
He killed your brother!
KELLY:
Mr. Martinez!
[GUN fires]
[siren wails]
HECTOR:
He murdered my son!
KELLY:
I understand.
HECTOR:
|
Murderer!
officer:
What's going on?
Everything's under control.
Up.
You put "shots fired" over the air?
-l just called it in.
KELLY:
Can't make it go away.
HECTOR:
You murdered my son!
MARTlNEZ:
Stop it, Papi.
-What's his problem?
-Just get out of here.
KELLY:
Can't make it go away, James.
officer:
Watch your head.
KELLY:
We're stuck with it.
Break out your travel brochures and look into a warmer climate.
Now get.
Go on.
[PHONE rings]
How was your birthday lunch?
-l used to play hockey.
-You're kidding?
In high school.
And couples skating, I used to do.
|
-l skate twice a week at the Skyline.
-Really?
Yeah.
I used to know someone who enjoyed ice skating, couples skating.
-Long time ago.
-l'm going tomorrow.
-ls that right?
-Maybe sometime you'd come with me.
[STAMMERS]
-l'm sorry, Donna.
-Don't worry about your stutter.
No, I mean, I got this long commute.
My wife sometimes has dinner ready.
-lt's how we do it.
-Sure.
Maybe some other time.
Happy birthday.
-Was he trying to shoot the dealer?
-l wrote that the gun shot accidentally.
I know what you wrote up.
The father never accepted his son being a drug user.
He hears the kid's dead, he's grieving.
So he goes after the drug dealer.
He's not a habitual violent offender.
-The son's dead.
The dealer's free.
-He wasn't holding.
Are you really doing Martinez a favor if you give his father a walk on this?
HECTOR:
You're sitting here in front of me...
|
... andyourbrother'slyingdead in Bellevue Hospital.
Mr. Gutierez said, tomorrow they'll release his remains.
You're sitting here...
... andthatdrugdealer,whokilled your brother, walks the street free.
He didn't have any drugs on him, and we can't prove he sold to Roberto.
They were bringing him in to keep you out of trouble.
But you got into trouble anyway.
What if they release you now?
What would you do?
-l'd do what needs to be done.
-What?
-Somebody gots to be a man!
-l'm trying to get you to talk sense.
You gotta stop acting crazy.
Crazy?
Crazy to you, because you didn't take care of your brother.
-l did my best.
-He's dead!
-How did you do anything?
Huh?
-Stop it!
-How'd you do anything?
He's dead!
-Stop it.
He's dead!
Your brother's dead!
What happened?
-Don't hit me anymore.
-You were supposed to take care of him.
KELLY:
|
Hey!
Hey!
Hey!
SlPOWlCZ:
Break it up.
KELLY:
James, get off him!
What the hell is going on in here?
-Let's take a walk.
-Let's go.
Come on, let's go.
-You okay, Martinez?
-l don't want him released.
-l don't want him on the street.
-Okay, we'll keep him.
-We'll arraign and release tomorrow.
-Good.
He'll be off the street tonight.
You gonna be okay?
Yeah.
LlCALSl:
So, what do you think?
KELLY:
You know. lt'll get better.
Better?
I got a seafood ravioli coming up I think you're really gonna love.
-You okay?
-Yeah.
Okay. I was thinking about the phone call you got on the pay phone today.
Oh, it was a perp.
|
It was a fence that Lucas and I popped a couple weeks ago.
Mm-hm.
He uses that pay phone because it's the number that he's used to using.
Okay?
End of interrogation?
Yeah.
People use that phone, because they don't want their conversation recorded.
So you can understand my concern.
Yeah, but I told you who it was.
Okay.
And I made too much of it.
You're gonna have to trust me, otherwise this is not gonna work.
And I do trust you.
Come here.
Come here.
Got it?
Hm?
SlPOWlCZ:
Okay, Mr. Martinez, let's go.
I don't want him with us.
We're the cops, Mr. Martinez.
We'll tell you how it's gonna be.
I'm telling you, I don't want you around.
Let me go with you, then we'll go home.
No, you go home and stay there with your mother.
All right.
KELLY:
Let's go, here we go.
We're ready.
Come on, here we go.
|
Come on.
Talk to you later, all right?
People of New York v. Hector Martinez.
Defendant is charged with possession of a concealed weapon.
After discussion with the officers and considering the circumstances...
... we'dconsideran RORand adjournment, contemplating dismissal.
-We would accept.
-The gun was discharged?
It was an officer who caused the gun to fire while disarming the suspect.
JUDGE:
Uh-huh.
COSTAS:
He has no prior record and strong roots in the community.
And his son's a policeman.
This occurred after the defendant learned his younger son was dead.
I'm going to release you without bond.
Stay out of trouble for six months, and this won't be on your record.
Do you hear me, sir?
-All right.
Yes.
-Condolences on your loss.
-Mr.
Martinez, you got a minute?
HECTOR:
What do you want?
KELLY:
Step outside.
COSTAS:
Hi.
-Thanks for the rhythm with this guy.
|
-See what one dinner can buy?
-l thought it'd be two.
I'll check my fees.
You'd be better checking reservations at Dubrovnik's, 8:00 tonight.
Well, you're the detective.
Yeah.
How much more damage you gonna do to your family because Roberto died?
What?
You leave the dealer on the street and arrest me.
We couldn't charge him, and we brought you in for safety.
You want to have your wife visit you for five years on Rikers Island?
Two hours a week for five years seeing you with junkies, pimps and thieves?
She'll know you're there because you threw your family away.
-Some lowlife killed my son.
-Drugs killed your son.
Roberto put that spike in his own arm.
He's gone.
Shooting the dealer won't change that.
Your other son tries to help, and you slap and insult him.
KELLY:
James loves you.
-Don't tell me about my son.
He's a good person.
I don't know your wife...
... butI 'msureshe'sagood person like you.
You did great with your kids.
You've had a horrible loss.
Get past it and fix your family.
We're done running around like schmucks, making sure everything's okay.
-Next dumb thing, you don't get slack.
|
-Can I go now?
Go ahead.
-Did you hear what he said?
-Yeah.
ROBERTS:
Hey, Medavoy.
-Hi.
-Donna.
-Hi.
-You still going skating?
-Yeah.
-Could I go with you?
-Great!
[PHONE rings]
-15 Precinct.
richie:
is Janice Licalsi there?
-Who's this?
-Her cousin Richie.
-l'll give you the right number.
-l don't have another quarter.
All right, wait a second.
It's for you.
Give him the right number.
LlCALSl:
What?
-Are we on this afternoon?
-No. I didn't get to it yet.
-Why not?
I didn't get to it.
|
I don't know if I'll do it.
-You don't?
Don't make a mistake--
-Did you hear what I said?
-l'll let you know what I decide.
-Yeah, and listen to what I say.
If I have to call back, I'll call and put on tape what you did.
Up your ass with that license plate, pal.
Up your ass, sweetheart.
Right up your ass with that shiny cop shield.
-How did you get interested in skating?
-There was a pond near where l lived.
My girlfriends and I thought the ice Capades were the coolest.
Beautiful, perfect people zooming across the ice.
How'd you go from ice Capades to hockey?
I guess that had more to do with the players.
Last guy I skated with checked me into the boards.
-Don't worry.
No body checks.
-You're good.
I think we both make the team.
-You remind me of Peggy Fleming.
-l always wanted to be her.
I bet she'd want to be you.
How's your soda?
Delicious. I got to be careful, though, sweets go right to my hips.
Your parents still live out on Long lsland?
-No, they passed away.
-Sorry.
You know, I used to love skating on that pond.
|
You could go around hours, just listening to the wind, ducks.
-You know, you haven't stammered once.
-That's mostly a nervous condition.
-lt's better once I get comfortable.
-l think you're a good skater.
You're great.
And you're attractive, really attractive.
You know, just delightful.
-Are you gonna be late getting home?
-l am gonna be so late.
You gotta be late all the time, working on cases.
Yeah, then I can be home late.
This was a great night for me.
Me too.
Come on, I'll walk you to your car.
KELLY:
Wait.
LlCALSl:
What's wrong?
It feels like there's something else in bed with us.
That's a weird thing to say.
It's a weird feeling.
What's going on?
I don't know. I feel like I'm being reviewed on how I make love.
Mm-hm.
That's not what's happening.
-Why don't you get out of here?
-What would happen if I stayed?
Oh, don't interrogate me.
What is going on with you?
|
You want me to trust you, I'm trying, but didn't you get another phone call?
It's like you're in jail and making love like you want out.
So, what is going on with you?
Why don't you get out of here, Johnny?
KELLY:
You're involved with these people again, aren't you?
-Trust you, Janice.
-Well, it's my problem.
Okay, your problem.
Trust you, but you can lie anytime?
We could have a life, but you don't have to tell me the truth?
Someone else found out.
I thought it was just between me and Marino, but he kept a book. I'm in it.
Who contacted you?
Some errand boy named Richie.
They want me to run a license plate.
To start you off.
I'm not gonna do this again.
-l wanna see this asshole.
-Who?
-l wanna know what's going on.
-No, then you'd be involved.
-Janice, I am involved.
-l want you to go get your clothes.
-l want you to call him.
-No.
Get your clothes, go away, and let me figure how I'm gonna deal with this.
I'm sorry I didn't tell you.
Now you're telling the truth, but you won't let me help you.
We could have a life?
|
Right?
Don't get in bed with these people again.
I won't.
[sirens wailing ]
-Officer Licalsi.
LlCALSl:
Good morning, inspector.
-Security said you arrived at 6:30.
-l didn't know how to do this.
No?
You want some lemon cheese Danish?
If you don't mind, I'd like to get down to what I came here for.
I'm glad he's dead, Marino and his driver.
They choose their work.
Whatever happens, I can live with.
-Officer Licalsi.
-l knew Marino.
Did you ever meet him?
You communicated with Marino before his death?
Prior to his death, not since.
-That's not the tone you use with me.
-Probably not.
I gave this a lot of thought before I came in here.
I thought a lot about Marino too.
More than he deserves.
Most courts would've given him what he got and jailed him while he appealed.
Licalsi, let's establish some ground rules.
The matter of the death of Marino is closed. lt's a cleared case.
Alfonse Giardella did that murder.
He confessed to it.
|
You may think you have some reason for reopening those doors.
You don't.
Hear me on this, because I'm not saying it again.
I heard you.
I'm trying to understand you.
I'm interested in looking forward, not back.
You're not a fool.
You understand that just fine.
Don't you?
Say I do.
His death to one side, you say Marino reached out to you?
Before he was shot, he said in the future, he'd ask me to do something.
Why would he expect you to cooperate?
My daddy was Dominic Gennaro.
One of the cops that got indicted.
LASTARZA:
Who just died.
Marino was blackmailing me.
He'd rat on my dad unless I did what he wanted.
What'd he ask you to do?
All I did for him was the thing you told me we are not gonna discuss.
Okay.
-Why'd you come here?
-l was approached again.
-By whom?
-l don't know who he works for.
-Tommy Linardi.
-Probably. I don't know.
Look.
I want to get out from under.
|
If that means losing my job, if it means going to jail... .
Who else have you told?
-No one yet.
-Keep it that way.
In the meantime, I need some time to digest all you've said today.
I'll let you know how I decide to proceed.
They want me to run a license plate.
I'll be in touch very soon.
Yes, I remember you.
I'm glad you called back.
My superiors authorized me to release some classified information to you.
This is on a top-secret basis.
They want me to let you know, the Gravity Shelf is in remission.
The laser death team got recalled.
Well, if the death team disobeys orders from Shelf headquarters... .
Aluminum foil.
In the small event that occurs, just crumple two pieces of aluminum foil...
... andstufftheminyour undershorts.
It defeats their sensor rays.
Definitely, this could collapse the empire of the Gravity Shelf.
Yes, these are great days.
Okay, goodbye.
You saved the galaxy.
Roberts, you owe $ 14 for this month's coffee supplies when you can.
So how'd it go last night with Donna?
Good.
We had a good time skating.
-Skating, huh?
-Yeah, over at the Skyline.
Andy, $ 14 for coffee supplies.
|
Detective, have you noted the absence of the wedding ring on Medavoy's hand?
Yeah, but it's not what it looks like.
Plus note he seems to be showing guilty confusion.
It's not what it looks like.
I lost the ring down the sink.
Sure, Medavoy.
Roberts, being experienced, when did you notice the ring missing?
-lt's missing now.
-Andy, it's not how it looks.
It wasn't off yesterday when he was trying to get Miss Abandando...
... whoyousaidwas morelikelytogo out with Martina Navratilova anyways?
We wouldn't be talking sour grapes, would we?
Because Miss Abandando told you to slap your hockey puck up your ass?
I'm only putting in half for coffee.
I'll be gone two weeks.
Screw you, Andy.
-Thanks, Andy.
-No problem.
We just went skating.
Sounds like we're still in misdemeanor territory, Medavoy.
It was the craziest thing with the wedding ring. I never take it off.
This morning, I wanted to see if I could, and off it flies down the sink.
-Did you call the plumber?
-He's coming.
-There's no problem, then?
-Yeah.
Yeah.
-Hi.
-Hi.
I hope that wasn't what it sounded like it was.
|
What do you mean?
I mean, it sounded like it was about you and me.
Donna.
We went ice skating last night.
We had a lovely time.
Yeah.
And if some idiot wants to tease me, that's his problem.
I don't want to cause you any problems at work or at home.
You're not causing me any problems.
And we didn't do anything wrong.
Just the opposite.
-l had a really great time.
-Me too.
You're one hell of a skater.
Thanks.
You too.
KELLY:
You seen Licalsi?
SERGEANT:
In there.
You disconnected your phone?
I called you all last night.
What's going on?
-l turned myself in.
-You what?
I went to Lastarza.
The asshole who gave Andy's shooter the walk?
You're going to trust him?
I have to get straight.
He'll eat you up, spit you out and put you in jail.
|
SERGEANT:
They're looking for you.
-We're done here.
LlCALSl:
We should talk more about it.
-We're gonna talk about it.
You looking for me?
We know about Martinez staking out Brick Top?
-No.
-Sector car says he is.
In case his father shows up.
Maybe he should leave.
-Who?
-Brick Top.
If Brick Top's holding, bust him. lf the father commits a crime, bring him in.
Martinez is supposed to be on leave.
He's trying to hold his family together.
You want me to get him?
No.
Tell the sector car he's on assignment.
Okay.
brick TOP:
That's the way it goes down.
-Hey, where you been?
-All over.
All over?
You're gone all yesterday.
You're gone all night.
I'm calling Mami, she's worried.
She lost her son too.
|
Instead of being home with her, I'm worried about you.
-l know that.
-You know that.
What am I supposed to do, huh?
Go home with Mami?
Pick up Roberto's body at Bellevue?
Should I wait till that guy comes back and kill him?
Am I a man then?
When you were born, we had nothing.
No money, no good place to live.
I was always afraid I couldn't protect you.
That's why I was so hard on you.
I wanted you to be able to stick up for yourself.
Roberto was eight years later.
I had some money, a decent apartment.
Maybe his life was too easy.
I mean, maybe I was too soft.
You loved him.
I love you.
Look, I apologize for hitting on you.
-l should have took care of things.
-No, no, no, no.
-l messed up.
You messed up nothing.
-l'm sorry.
James, James, James... .
James, I love you.
I've always loved you.
Come on, let's go home.
You okay?
|
I'm doing great. I don't understand why you opened up to this guy.
Hey, Johnny.
Lastarza wouldn't let me talk about killing Marino.
You said you turned yourself in.
He wouldn't let me tell about Marino and his driver. lt's a cleared case.
He got Giardella to say he did it.
A dozen of his cases crumble if it comes out Giardella lied.
But they have you.
Because you never reported Marino.
This is a cancer.
It was spreading to you.
-Lastarza will make you go undercover.
-You'd have killed that guy.
-That's what he'll do.
-And I'm going to be okay.
[THUNDER ROLLS]
See-- l don't know what to do with this.
I don't know how to help you.
I'm gonna be all right.
-l don't know how to help you.
-Oh, Johnny.
I love you.
Come here.
Come here.

Previously on Everwood:
Amy what is it?
Colin's coming home.
|
- So he's coming home.
- A little too soon if you ask me.
I don't remember the accident.
I don't even remember you.
- He can't even remember my name.
- My dad said it just takes a while.
I mean he'll remember eventually.
You just gotta stick it out.
You don't have to fake it anymore.
I know you don't remember me.
- I'm Amy.
- I'm Colin.
All right.
Every storyteller knows that at the heart of any great tale is the hero who inspired it.
Legends whose names are known, whose lives we remember whose stories we pass on.
Hand?
- Alexander the Great.
- Okay I'm in.
Ernest Hemingway.
I fold.
Marilyn Monroe.
I got nothing.
The older the tale, the more romantic embellishments we tale-spinners add.
It helps create the illusion of an individual who is larger than life.
Dr. Brown was a legend in his own right by the time he came to Everwood but he wasn't the only one.
Ladies and gentlemen a full house.
- She got you again Dad.
- Damn.
I thought for sure you were bluffing this time.
Wait till I tell Uta.
|
She'll be thrilled!
- You studied acting under Uta Hagen?
- Not acting darling.
Poker.
Tell him about the time you met Jack Lemmon in the john.
She was in the men's room.
It was one of those French-y restaurants.
I forget the name.
Uno Deux-no...
No Edna it wasn't.
It was a Mexican restaurant.
I accidentally walked into the men's room and who's standing there finishing his business but Mr. Jack Lemmon himself?
Now of course I had met him several times in passing.
She'd just seen him in Long Day's Journey couple weeks before.
Anyway I'm standing there I am so embarrassed.
- Mr. Lemmon zipping up.
- So what did you say?
Well what else could I say except:
"Well nobody's perfect"?
- I don't get it.
- It's a famous last line in an old movie.
We'll rent it.
You'd love it.
Could I have more water?
I've got this tickle in my throat.
Sure I'll get you a fresh glass.
- You really have a beautiful home doctor.
- Thank you.
- So what brought you to Everwood?
- My career was at a standstill in New York when a friend asked me to direct a stock production at the opera house.
|
- I was gonna stay the summer.
- How long ago was that?
About 12 years ago.
And now I mostly teach classes and I'll direct a play now and again in Denver.
But every winter I direct a musical here in Everwood and Edna's my stage manager.
How about coming and auditioning?
We're doing The King and I.
I'm sorry but I haven't done a musical since high school.
Even then I wasn't good.
- I had the worst time memorizing lines.
- Excuse me.
Stop by my office tomorrow so I can check that out.
There's no need.
It's probably just a silly flu.
Probably but I could take a look.
All right.
I'll make my way to your fabulous train station if you'll audition with me.
I don't know about balloon pants but I'll think about it.
- Anyone for another hand?
- Not this one.
Time to hit the sack kiddo.
- It was nice meeting you Evelyn.
- Oh and you too dear.
Are you gonna try out for my musical?
Well you have such expressive eyes.
You'd be a natural.
I have expressive eyes?
You've gotta be kidding.
Nicole Kidman would kill for those peepers.
Now what about singing?
|
Do you like to sing?
She has a beautiful voice.
Takes after her mother that way.
Okay it's agreed.
Auditions this week and don't you forget.
I won't.
Thanks Evelyn.
And just like that a star is born.
You have to buy my sheet music first thing tomorrow.
And the star's assistant.
Hey.
You ready for your first day of school?
Sure.
What's that?
Your Miners jacket.
You gave it to me last year.
I thought you'd wanna wear it.
Yeah.
Sure.
Clear the way people.
Clear the way.
My brother has returned.
You've got homeroom and then first period is with Mr. Bedford.
He's a little bit out of it so he may not even notice you.
We both have Mrs. Chapman for journalism.
She's not nice at all.
Unless she likes you of course.
Then you're golden.
- Does she like me?
- Everybody likes you Colin.
|
You wouldn't happen to remember where homeroom is would you?
- No clue.
- That's okay I'll show you.
It's weird seeing them together again.
Like nothing ever happened.
I wouldn't know.
I know you're feeling destroyed right now but I'm here for you buddy.
Why would I be feeling destroyed?
You've been holding Colin's place in line.
Now he's back you've got nowhere to stand.
You wasted time on Amy for nothing.
- It wasn't for nothing.
- Oh that's true.
It was like a practice crush.
Now you can focus on liking someone a little more your speed.
- Shut up Wendell.
Theophilus thistle the successful thistle sifter sifting a sieve full of unsifted thistles.
Good luck Dan.
Knock them dead Neil.
Break a leg Alice.
Thanks Dr. Abbott.
You too.
What are you doing here so early?
You're not slated till 4.
Absolutely not.
I signed up for a 3:00 audition Mother.
I wrote down 4.
Oh well.
Tough tamales.
Beautiful isn't it?
|
That's one of the oldest theaters in Colorado Delia.
It looks like a picture.
- You think they have regular toilets?
- Why wouldn't they have regular toilets?
I don't know.
Maybe they didn't have them in the olden days.
If this is the result of homeschooling I'd reconsider your options.
I take it you're auditioning doctor.
Well the audition's merely a formality but yes.
Yes I am.
You don't seem scared at all.
If you or your father perused the one-sheets outside of the opera house here you'd notice there hasn't been an Everwood winter musical in six years in which I have not played the lead.
I bet you made a great Gypsy.
Fear not doctor.
I'm sure Evelyn will find a place for you.
Perhaps in the chorus.
You're absolutely right because there's room in my musical for everyone.
Evelyn wonderful seeing you.
Harold.
Wow are my eyes fooling me or have you lost weight since last year?
- I've increased the cardio.
- I can tell.
Oh Evelyn!
Oh Evelyn.
Brenda.
You look more radiant every time I see you.
Do you have a sec?
I would love for you to look over my music selection.
- Me too.
- I'd love to help you all.
|
I just need a few moments to settle in okay?
Excuse me.
- Evelyn?
- Yeah.
Listen Evelyn we need to talk.
If you don't have a song prepared you can sing "Happy Birthday."
- You missed your follow-up appointment.
- Yes I did.
I'm sorry.
It must have just slipped my mind while I was readying for the auditions.
- Perhaps we can meet later.
- We should.
Very well.
I know you.
I don't think so.
I'm new here.
You're Ephram Brown the kid from New York.
- Yeah that's me.
- I thought so.
You know I know all about you.
You shouldn't waste your Google time on me.
I'm not that interesting.
Bright told me about you.
He's running on empty as far as brain cells are concerned.
- Your dad saved my life.
- Excuse me?
Well I met him a few times in rehab.
He's the one that did the operation right?
- That's what Bright told you?
- What everyone told me.
|
Said he's some kind of a genius.
He likes to think so.
Well you're cool with me.
It's nice to meet you Ephram.
Sure.
Nice meeting you too.
Honestly doctor you have done a remarkable job here.
Where were you when I was building the set of Brigadoon?
We could have used you.
- Why don't you sit down Evelyn.
- Oh thanks I'm fine.
Is this your son?
Wow.
Why didn't he audition for us?
Ephram saves his theatrical side for our arguments.
That's too bad.
He's a handsome guy a lot like his dad.
So is your beautiful daughter.
By the way your auditions were topnotch.
Evelyn I got the results of some of our blood work and I'm sorry to tell you...
I think you'll be very happy with the role I've chosen for you.
Really befits your stage presence.
- What I'm trying to tell you is...
- That I have leukemia?
- You knew?
- It's not an impressive guess.
I've battled that dragon before.
- I didn't know that.
- Nobody does.
At least not in Everwood.
|
Twelve years ago I was living in New York.
My career was on its way up.
I had been cast as a lead opposite Julie Harris in a production at Lincoln Center.
And I was diagnosed with acute myeloid leukemia.
Well needless to say I didn't go up in that play.
Instead I moved here with my cousin to finish out the rest of my days in peace.
And then it started to happen.
I started to get really well and before I knew it I was in full remission.
That's when my cousin suggested that I join the living and direct the winter musical.
You see doctor I came here to die.
And instead I ended up living the best years of my life.
Okay.
So here's what we're gonna do now.
We need to get you to an oncologist right away.
They'll perform a bone-marrow aspiration confirm it's still myeloid start you on chemo.
In the meantime I'll check with my friends at the Mayo Clinic.
- You know there's a trial...
- Does Edna know?
No.
I haven't told her.
I thought you'd wanna do that.
You mustn't tell anyone.
Promise me.
Of course not.
Well I should probably go make some phone calls.
You're gonna be at rehearsal tomorrow right?
You bet.
You're gonna be great you know.
- Morning Edna.
- Mighty cold day in hell sarge.
|
It's chilly out sure but I've seen worse.
- I remember one winter in Calgary...
- Evelyn flew the coop.
What do you mean?
Went back to New York.
Something about helping her sister move to spend more time with her nephew.
All I know is she left us high and dry and it's not like her to do that.
- When did you get this?
- I don't know when she left it.
Found it on my doorstep this morning.
Why?
Do you know anything about this?
- Did she say something to you?
- Not a thing.
But I'm sure she'll be back.
Yeah but she doesn't say when.
And she wants me to direct the play.
Obviously the woman has lost her mind.
I don't know.
I think that's a great idea.
Are you self-medicating again?
I can't direct a musical.
- Why not?
- Because.
If some person wearing all black asks me what's their motivation I'm liable to smack him.
- Come on Edna you'd be terrific.
Directing's all about bossing people around yelling at them making them do things your way.
Nobody does that better than you.
Nice try but your sweet talk won't work with me.
Besides I boss people around without the fancy title.
|
Well that's my point.
You take control of a situation.
You're a born leader.
That's what Evelyn sees in you.
That's why she knows you can do it.
I did pick up a few things from my rumble in the jungle.
Maybe they'd apply.
As long as you don't ask the cast to make necklaces out of ears go with what you got.
- You'll be there to help me seeing as how she's cast you as the King of Siam.
The king of what?
She left a script with a note.
Congrats.
Do you think we should shave your head or just get you a bald cap?
Oh no.
There's gotta be some mistake.
The first read-through is this afternoon.
I expect you'll be prompt.
I wonder what the lunch lady eats for lunch.
Does she eat this stuff or brown-bag it?
If she brown-bags it isn't she the one who did the cooking so wouldn't it be as bad?
- Your thoughts exhaust me.
- Imagine what they do to me.
Ephram.
I saved you a seat.
It's okay.
I'm just gonna...
- What?
- Sidebar.
Dude what is wrong with you?
The popular table is beckoning.
|
- So?
- So you can't say no.
That'd be like saying no to free comics or to making out with Gwyneth Paltrow.
- Such things are simply not done.
- Okay.
- All right.
- Bring me back a souvenir.
- You all know Ephram right?
- Sure we do.
- How's it going dude?
- It's going good.
- How's it going with you?
- Good.
Thanks for asking.
Amy will you scoot over?
You're like suffocating me here.
- Hey Ephram.
- Hey.
Oh right.
You guys obviously know each other.
No.
No not really.
I mean...
- Not so much.
- You're both sophomores.
I mean you must have some classes together.
I rarely attend class.
But he does go on field trips.
I need a soda.
Want something from the vending machines?
|
I'm good thanks.
Oh wait up.
Ephram do you want anything?
No thanks.
I'm good.
I can't believe all the scenes we have together.
I bet there's gonna be some private rehearsals.
Looks like I'll finally be getting to know you.
Oh boy.
I can't believe you play Anna's son.
It's not fair.
- It's fair.
I have expressive eyes.
- But I'm a real boy.
You just act like one.
- Deal with it Arnie.
- Here you go Alice.
Evelyn!
- Harold hello.
Good to see you.
- Where is Evelyn?
I demand to see her.
There has been a mistake.
The script I received has "Chorus/King's understudy" written on the front.
- That's not a mistake Harold.
No that's impossible.
Who else would be the...?
Remember Harold there are no small parts only small actors.
Whatever idiot coined that phrase was not an understudy in a community theater production.
I demand to see Evelyn about this.
|
Sorry folks Evelyn won't be here today.
What do you mean?
She's the director.
That is not entirely the case.
Well then who's our director?
- You're looking at her cupcake.
- You Mother?
She had a family emergency and requested I serve in her post until she returns.
So listen up people and listen good.
Now you all know my husband Irv.
He will be operating as my stage manager.
If he sees anyone bringing food or beverage into this establishment he has my full permission to kick some thespian butt.
This includes children.
All right then.
Let's everybody turn to Page 1.
Prepare to commence with the read-through.
Pick you up same time tomorrow. 7:30?
You don't have to keep driving me to school Bright.
We always came together.
If it's not out of your way that's cool. 7:30's fine.
You'll see.
It's gonna start coming back to you.
We just gotta get into the groove stick with our old routine the way it used to be.
- How do you mean?
- I mean with like lunch and everything we have a set table.
It's been the same six people since eighth grade.
If we keep it the same way you'll have a better shot at jarring up those memories.
- You mean Ephram.
- Yeah.
Man he's not like us Colin.
|
Trust me.
I know him.
And I know you.
It's like ketchup and peanut butter.
Really bad.
Look whatever you got against this kid you're just gonna have to let it go.
I mean as far as I'm concerned he's one of us now.
So just work it out okay?
Sure.
Whatever you say.
For future reference just ring the doorbell.
It's less a chance of breaking my window.
- I need to talk to you.
- And apparently it's quite urgent.
What exactly is going on between you and Colin?
I mean why are you being all buddy-buddy with him?
First of all I'm not being buddy-buddy with anyone.
- All right?
He approached me.
- He did?
Why?
- I mean why?
- I don't know.
Maybe he thinks I'm pretty.
I'm serious.
You must have done something to get his attention and I don't think it's a good idea.
I mean not just for me for everyone.
It's nice you're thinking about everybody for a change.
Instead of just yourself.
- Excuse me?
|
- Look anyway what's the big deal?
No big deal.
It's just uncomfortable.
Why?
Whatever.
Look I have no interest in being your boyfriend's buddy.
- You don't have anything to worry about.
- So you won't say anything about...?
No.
I won't.
Thank you.
- That's all I needed to hear.
- Unless of course you know he asks me directly.
Asks you what?
What would he ask you?
I don't know.
But I'm not gonna lie.
I mean you did kiss me.
- You kissed me first.
- Don't worry.
I'm sure it won't come up.
- Are you trying to upset me Ephram?
- Just being honest.
Honestly maybe you and Colin shouldn't be friends.
I mean it's not like you have anything in common anyways.
No.
No.
Wait...
You're right.
Why would the most perfect guy in the world have anything in common with me?
|
- That's not what I meant.
That's what you meant.
You just didn't mean to say it.
This is hard for me too.
Okay?
I wanna be friends with you the way we were.
I really do.
But...
Now that Colin's back in school I mean...
You said it yourself.
He needs me.
And I...
Well I'm just trying to figure out how to balance all of this Ephram.
And I will.
It's just so complicated.
I think you should get going.
Wouldn't want you to get in any more trouble tonight because of me.
Okay.
Splendid Your Majesty.
How many children have you?
Don't tell me.
Wait a minute.
I know this one.
I know it.
- Sixty-seven.
- I have 67 children.
- How long will I have to have this cast on?
- Could you focus?
- Did I say the line right or not?
- No.
|
Not really.
The line was "I have only 67 altogether."
- You're not looking at the script.
- I know it already.
We've done this a hundred times doc.
Well I was close.
You don't have to get so nitpicky about it.
- But you said earlier...
- Forget what I said okay?
Let's assume that if I'm in the ballpark it's good enough all right?
Okay.
- Now let's skip ahead to the next part.
- Okay.
A missionary taught you English?
Yes sir.
Missionary.
That's your cue.
- I have a line there?
- Oh you do.
Let me see that.
You've been rehearsing for weeks.
You should know your lines.
You wanna wear this cast forever?
- I need more plaster.
- Storage.
How's it going on those lines sarge?
Oh great.
Just really really great.
I have altogether 42 children?
- Ready for lunch honey?
|
- Lunch?
Who has time for lunch?
I've got blocking to finish.
I've got Lady Thiang exiting downstage left just as Tuptim enters.
It's a collision course waiting to happen.
Maybe you should take a break.
You seem stressed-out.
Why would I be stressed?
The play goes up in three days I have seven dances to choreograph I've got a lead who can't remember his lines and I've got a stage manager who apparently thinks he's on vacation.
Yo E what's up?
- "E"?
I'm E now?
- Hi Ephram.
- Hello.
- Why does everybody know my name?
In case you haven't noticed you're the new "it" boy.
- Why?
I didn't do anything.
- You've been Colin-approved.
When the most popular guy in school takes you under his wing you're in the club.
He just likes me because of my dad.
Who cares why he likes you?
Nepotism is a beautiful thing E. Embrace it.
- Don't ever call me E again.
- Hey E.
I already have a plan.
You are part of the plan.
What is good in Western culture...
I could drive a train through those gaps Brown.
Speed it up.
|
What is good in Western culture...
I already have a plan.
Already I have bring printing press here for printing.
- What he said.
- Yes I know Your Majesty but there's the...
- Cut.
Just cut.
- lf I could just stay on-book a little longer...
- Where the hell is my stage manager?
How long does it take for a latte run?
- Perhaps he fled the country.
- Wise man.
From the top.
Faster.
- You are school teacher?
- Yes Majesty.
When do I start my work?
- I will tell you when I wish you to start.
- Okay but there...
This is ridiculous.
They don't talk this fast on West Wing.
That does it.
Drop and give me 20.
- Oh not again.
- Hit the deck Baxworth.
- I miss Evelyn.
- You say something Alice?
- Sir no sir!
- For heaven's sake Mother.
This is a theater not a battlefield.
|
And there are ways to address an actor during the rehearsal process.
Even a God-awful actor like Dr. Brown deserves encouragement.
Directing requires precision and creativity inspiration and heart.
Evelyn Rauser possesses all of those qualities.
- And she's nice to us.
- And she doesn't make us do pushups.
I got an idea.
Cue cards!
Mother we're fed up.
This is not boot camp.
We do not wanna be treated like we're...
All right everybody listen up.
Either we do this my way or not at all.
Anybody who doesn't like it can leave right now.
I'm out of here.
Good luck Mother.
Listen Edna...
Forget it doc.
Leave me alone.
Let's get a game going.
Bright and Ted you're captains.
- Ted you're first.
- Dana.
Ephram Brown.
Ephram!
Dude I picked you.
- Why?
- Move it Ephram.
Come on.
Todd.
|
- What are you doing?
- Picking my team.
- Alex.
- But you hate me.
- No I don't.
I like you.
- Kurt.
- Since when?
- I've always been fond of you.
I'm just...
I'm shy you know?
Al.
- Name one thing you like about me.
- Just one?
How about a thousand?
You're...
You're sensitive extremely clean...
Look Bright I know you hate me and I'm fine with it.
It means the planets are aligned.
So let's not mess with the universe okay?
You wanna pick the next guy?
- Speak up.
- Louder!
That's not whistling that's blowing.
Yeah.
I don't think so.
Dr. Brown.
I wasn't expecting to see you again until Friday.
Come in.
Would you like some tea doctor?
|
I'm having some.
No.
No thanks.
I was just checking in.
Wanted to see how everything worked out with the Mayo Clinic.
Well I'm going to Minnesota next Monday.
- I appreciate all your string-pulling.
- I'm happy to help.
I feel as though I haven't done enough these past few weeks.
What more could you do?
So what are you really here for?
You still having trouble with your lines?
I think you should tell them Evelyn.
These people care about you.
- lf they knew what you're going through...
- Then what?
What they'd all come trotting by with their tins of baked goods?
No thank you.
I prefer my solitude.
There's a certain dignity to it.
- Don't you agree?
- No I don't.
There's no reason why you should have to go through this alone especially when it's so unnecessary.
I have seen people in your position who had no friends or family who were forced to go through the pain and the loneliness of sickness.
But you are choosing it.
And I don't understand that.
It's okay to let them see that you're human.
Excuse me?
Look I know what it's like.
People think of you as this god and worship you to the point where they turn you into something that you can't ever really be.
|
That you shouldn't have to be.
You don't have to be perfect Evelyn.
You can be sick.
They'll still love you.
In fact they'll probably love you even more for it.
I appreciate the sentiment but these people need me to be their hero and I love playing the role.
I'm sorry you didn't enjoy the adoration of the masses but I do.
Where's the harm?
In the end everybody gets what they want.
What if you don't get better?
Then what?
Then everybody will get what they've always had an idea of me.
Well Edna is your friend and she's working her ass off right now trying to be you when she has no idea that it's all smoke and mirrors.
Is that fair?
There are lots of things in life that aren't fair darling.
And you of all people should know that.
Hey Ephram you want a ride?
No I'm okay.
I'm gonna ride my bike.
We can put it in back man.
Just hop in.
No.
I mean I'm fine.
Really.
Maybe he wants to ride his bike Colin.
Well why would he wanna do that?
Come on we can make room.
Amy can sit in my lap I...
Yeah I don't need a ride.
Okay?
|
I don't need to be sitting at your tables or playing on your teams.
Dude what is your problem?
You're my problem dude.
Look my dad helped you.
If you wanna thank him be my guest.
I had nothing to do with it.
Leave me alone.
Believe it or not I have no interest in being your charity case.
It's not like that man.
Yeah it is.
Trust me.
You and I we have nothing in common.
If you want go back to the way it was.
You all ignore me and I will be more than happy to do the same.
Okay?
All of you.
I tried to tell you man.
He's a wack job.
Amy get in the truck.
- I don't suppose you serve margaritas.
- Evelyn?
I'll have what she's having please.
I thought you were in New York.
- Your note said you had gone...
- About the note...
It's full of bull.
I'm a fantastic liar.
Well the joke's on you because it turns out I'm a lousy director.
I single-handedly ruined your musical.
I'm sure it's safe to assume that you did not single-handedly ruin anything.
|
In fact I'm certain that you had help in the destruction of Siam.
The truth is I tried.
I just couldn't do it.
I'm not you Evelyn.
No.
No you most certainly are not.
You're better.
You're real Edna.
Real people make mistakes.
They fall down on the world and they pick themselves up bloodied knees and all.
I just wanted it to be perfect you know?
I didn't pick you to direct my play because I thought you were gonna be perfect.
In fact I chose you because I knew you wouldn't be and that you wouldn't let it stop you.
I heard that I made a teeny-weeny casting faux pas.
Oh boy.
- So you wouldn't mind if I...?
- Darling the play is yours.
Do with it what you wish.
You probably shouldn't drink that.
Well nobody's perfect.
Well looks normal to me sweetheart.
What exactly is it that's bothering you?
Is it a sore throat?
Tummy ache?
Let's see.
I've been having hot flashes insomnia and "osteorosis."
That does sound serious.
I thought so too.
And it might even be contagious.
I probably shouldn't be around people for a while.
|
Well menopause isn't normally contagious honey.
But then again it's also rare for it to occur in 9-year-old girls.
There's a first time for everything.
Well I guess we'll have to get you to a hospital.
Take some blood tests run a few CAT scans.
Blood tests?
Like with needles?
- Oh yeah.
Big ones.
- Dad maybe I don't have menopause.
Oh really?
Something else then?
Maybe I just don't wanna do the play anymore.
Why sweetheart?
Because what if I stink?
Then all those people will boo at me.
If they boo at anybody it'll be the guy who can't remember his lines.
Trust me you're not gonna stink.
Well maybe I won't stink as bad as you but even still I could forget everything even how to sing.
Do you remember when Uncle Brian was here and I had to do brain surgery again and I hadn't done it in a long time?
- I was scared.
- You were?
I was terrified.
I thought I was gonna forget how to do everything.
I woke up that morning and I thought "There's no way.
I can't do this."
- You seemed okay to me.
- Well that's what I wanted you to think.
But I was faking.
I pretended that I was okay when deep down I was really afraid.
|
Next thing I knew I was in the hospital room doing brain surgery.
And you know what?
I got so good at pretending to be fine that I actually was.
It's called "fake it till you make it."
- Like my song says.
- What song?
- In the play.
- Oh yeah.
Fake it till you make it.
I can do that.
I know you can.
- Your mom would be so proud of you.
- Really?
Really.
- Good night sweetheart.
- Good night Dad.
You really think I'm gonna stink?
- Can I talk to you for a second?
- I thought we already finished this.
Not exactly.
I lied to you Ephram.
I acted like the reason I was gonna be your friend was because of your dad but it's not.
It's something else.
All right.
Let's hear it.
I don't know you.
But more importantly is you don't know me.
You're the only person in this school who doesn't expect me to remember them or expect me to be this guy that I don't even know who he was.
And I'm trying to please all these people but it's wearing me out man.
I can understand that.
|
But it's different with you because you don't have any expectations.
And I don't have to feel guilty for not knowing you.
See in a way I mean you know we're both new.
And you look about as out of place as I feel which is probably why I approached you.
But what I don't get is why you don't like me.
Who said I didn't like you?
Well it's obvious you don't like hanging around me.
Is there a reason?
No.
No reason.
We're cool.
Cool.
So let's talk about this "E" thing.
Who came up with that?
Probably Bright.
Right.
Hello everyone.
Okay then.
- You look nice today Baxworth.
- I do?
Yeah.
Radiant.
- Thank you Edna.
- And Alice...
Sir yes sir.
You make a fine Tuptim.
I like what you've done with the part.
I should have told you that before.
I'm sorry if I haven't been very...
Nice?
|
Encouraging.
Private!
I don't think I have to tell you what great work you're doing.
You really had me convinced you're a boy on that stage and it freaks me out.
- Thanks Edna.
- And Dr. Brown?
- Yes?
- You're fired.
- I'm what?
- Executive decision.
Had to be made.
I'd appreciate it if you'd turn in your walking papers and exit without too much of a fuss.
But I was making so much progress.
How many children does Your Majesty have?
Thirty-seven?
- Junior!
- Six!
How do you feel about playing the King of Siam?
- Who's offering?
- I am.
Gee Mother I don't know.
Spielberg's heard of my work as the understudy.
- We're in talks.
- Come on Junior!
The play needs you.
Well I suppose the show must go on.
Wouldn't want to let down Everwood's theater-going community.
All right people.
Swallow that last bite of crumb cake.
We've got a dress rehearsal to get on.
|
Delia was never in Romeo and Juliet.
She was not the girl in Sleepless in Seattle.
- She wasn't even born when it came out.
- lf you're gonna dream dream big.
Dr. Brown?
- Hey Colin.
How you feeling?
- Pretty good.
Look I know my parents probably sent you enough gift baskets to last a lifetime but I guess I just wanted to come by and thank you myself.
You just keep doing what you're doing.
That's all the thanks I need.
Ephram do you wanna come sit with us?
We saved a few extra seats.
No.
No thanks.
I'm just gonna chill here with my dad.
- Okay.
- Catch you later.
- You two friends now?
- Kind of.
- Turns out we have some stuff in common.
- You mean Amy?
- Surprisingly it has nothing to do with Amy.
- So why don't you sit with him?
Because of Amy.
So who's this Evelyn Rauser?
- Why do you ask?
- Well I don't know.
- The play's dedicated to her.
Is she famous?
|
- She's something of a legend around here.
- She the reason you got fired?
- I did not get fired.
I chose to step down from the role.
Artistic differences.
Dad?
It's nice to know you're not awesome at everything.
All right troops fall in!
She means form a line morons.
I'll make this brief as we've got civilians out there waiting to be entertained.
You've all worked hard.
You've worked long.
You've struggled against formidable odds to get where you are tonight.
I'd be proud to lead you into battle anytime anyplace.
That's all.
Go get them soldiers.
And good luck.
I thought it was bad luck to say "good luck."
It is but let's not tell her that.
Places everybody!
Evelyn Rauser had an expression for the few seconds before the curtain went up.
She called it "the holy time."
But you don't have to be an actor to know what the holy time feels like.
It's that breath you take just seconds before you become the person you're meant to become.
For some people, it feels like forever.
And for some, it's a moment over far too fast.
[ENGLISH]
I wonder if the Philosopher's Stone would be in a desolate town like this.
It almost seems like a lie that up until just recently, this town was prosperous from gold.
|
Which is why they would be that much more likely to research the Philosopher's Stone.
What do you mean?
Since they stopped being able to get gold out of the mines, they'd want to transmute it with the Philosopher's Stone that much more.
This used to be a gold producing area, and all, so if they created just a little, no one would find them out, right?
It's terrible the way grown-ups think.
Elisa!
Hey, everyone, give me a hand here!
It's no use!
It won't budge!
Papa...
It's all right.
We're going to help you out of there no matter what!
What's the matter?
My daughter is pinned!
Just be patient for a bit, okay?
Man cannot obtain anything without first sacrificing something.
In order to obtain anything, something of equal value is required.
That is alchemy's Law of Equivalent Exchange.
At the time, we believed that to be the true way of the world.
Wow, to think that an alchemist would come along!
You really came through for us!
Thanks to his armored father, too!
No, no, we're brothers, actually.
This is my younger brother.
Younger brother?
Even though he's bigger than you, Big Brother?
Anyhow, we're glad that you weren't hurt, Elisa.
Elisa!
Is Elisa all right!
?
|
Uncle Belsio!
Papa...?
Look, you...
How dare you come into my house!
After making Elisa help you out like that!
Listen to me, Elisa.
No matter what anyone tells you, you can't help Belsio out in his work any more!
No!
It wasn't Uncle Belsio's fault!
I asked him to let me help out!
I-I'm sorry, Elisa!
Here, drink this.
I'm sorry.
Uncle Belsio told me that your lemon pies were the best, Papa.
And that it was a shame that there were so few farms left in town.
Hey now, once the Philosopher's Stone is finished, the town will become prosperous!
Then, we'll be able to buy our fruit!
Philosopher's Stone!
?
Right, right!
You two came to assist Mugwar in his research, right?
To create a Philosopher's Stone?
Alchemist, please create the Philosopher's Stone as soon as you can!
We want to get back our town of gold, Xenotime, no matter what!
We're depending on you, Master Alchemist!
It looks like there's a lot to this.
B-but in any case, I guess we'll go see this Mugwar person.
By the way, if you would please tell us your names...?
Our names?
I'm Edward.
|
Edward Elric.
H-his brother, Alphonse.
Alphonse Elric.
The Elric Brothers?
The State Alchemist ones?
Yeah!
What did you do that for!
?
You hush!
The real Elric Brothers are already up there!
Come back when you've decided to be honest about your real names!
Who is it that's been using my name, here?
Brother, are you really planning to sneak in?
Course I am!
I'm going to catch that impostor, and have him tell me about the Philosopher's Stone while I'm at it.
Brother?
Was that...?
A transmutative reaction.
Look at this.
This is all material on the Philosopher's Stone.
So, this is where they're making the Philosopher's Stone, all right.
No doubt about it.
This place is off limits to unauthorized persons.
By any chance, are you guys...?
There you are, you imposters!
Which would mean that you're the real Edward, huh?
No!
No!
I'm Edward!
Me!
|
You're the older brother?
Got any problem with that!
?
Don't get so excited.
The security guys will realize you're here.
What do you know, the younger brother wears armor, huh?
You sure don't look like you're fourteen.
You know about us?
What, you want to go at it?
If you guys will go home quietly, I don't plan on fighting.
Just let us stay here for a little while longer.
Is that any attitude to be asking somebody for something with?
Sit.
Stop looking down on me!
That would bother you, huh?
Being only that tall, when you're fifteen?
Automail, huh?
The real one has his troubles too, it seems.
By saying that, you sound as if you haven't just been living in idleness yourself!
I'd like to have a look at the skill of a State Alchemist.
You're gonna be sorry you did!
Not bad.
No transmutation circle, huh?
Huh, the imposter doesn't use a transmutation circle either!
?
Why, you!
Have you got a Philosopher's Stone!
?
What was that noise just now!
?
|
This way!
Damn!
I ache all over.
That imposter sure was strong, huh?
It was just the Stone's power, after all.
So, I wonder if they've completed a Philosopher's Stone yet.
We're going to make sure we find out.
I wonder what those brothers' names are.
The two of them must have real names, after all.
I wonder if the older brother is older than you, Brother.
Don't go judging us just on our size!
Brother, let's give this up, already.
If those two tell what's really going on, what will we do?
Don't worry.
Nobody is going to believe what they say.
Let's hurry and complete the Philosopher's Stone, and leave town.
I hope it goes that smoothly.
I won't let Mugwar get the credit for the research that Dad spent his whole life on.
But...
Don't worry.
If it comes to that, I'll make sure that no matter what, at least you get away.
Brother, you don't understand.
That won't... make me happy...
Are you sure you should be just standing there like that?
You're here, are you?
It seems some outsiders have appeared.
Y-yes, but not to worry.
The Elric Brothers have been chased away.
I'm not so sure.
Those boys could prove to be extraordinarily crafty.
|
But then, having come to this point it's only a matter of time before the military comes to learn of the research.
I think that maybe it's about time you pulled out, Mugwar.
Please don't say that!
Give me just a little more time, please!
I promise you, I will complete the Philosopher's Stone!
Hurry.
Use any means that you have to.
It's starting to swell up pretty good.
It feels so good that you're so cold.
I'm happy to be of use to you, Brother, even in this body.
You were at the store this evening.
If you have no place to stay, then come to my place.
Thanks for helping us out.
I couldn't let you children sleep outside.
You're not going to ask us our names?
You're the Elric Brothers, right?
Then, you believe us?
No.
I just think that everyone has their own reasons.
And I'm not the one who bears the responsibility for them.
That's up to you.
You don't appear to have any interest in the Philosopher's Stone, huh?
The folks in this town are still unable to forget the wealth that gold has brought them.
And Mugwar has them wrapped around his finger.
Good morning, Uncle Belsio!
If you keep coming to my place, you're going to get yelled at again by your pop.
No problem, no problem!
Papa is all wrapped up in talk about the gold mine.
He won't notice.
Good morning.
|
Big Brothers, you're here...!
Wow, that looks like it hurts!
That's what you get for telling lies, huh?
I'm telling you, we're not the ones who are lying.
And yet I'm the one who gets clocked!
You don't mean, you're the ones who snuck into Mugwar's mansion yesterday, Big Brothers?
Of course it was us!
We can't let those imposters get away with this, you know!
And besides, using a Philosopher's Stone to make gold is no small matter.
Brother...
I'm going to go see what's happening in town.
Brother!
- Yes?
- Hey, big guy!
Would you go to the drugstore for me?
I'd like for you to get Elisa's medicine, and your brother needs a compress too, right?
Say, it's that armor.
He's that impostor!
Oh, dear!
I wish he would hurry up and leave.
I'll bet it was those boys that broke in to rob Mugwar's mansion last night.
Hey, you!
What have you come here for!
?
I-I need to get some medicine...
We don't have any medicine that treats liars!
Go on!
Go on!
I give up.
I can't buy any medicine like this.
