"I've never done it myself, but from what I gather... it's the greatest satisfaction a working man can have." "So I guess the bank's gonna be your next step, huh?" " The bank?" " Yeah, take out a loan, get yourself started." "Nothing to worry about." "With your talent and reputation, it's gonna be a snap." "Yeah." "[ Man] No credit." "No record of jobs you've held." "No savings." "No personal investments." "No Social Security number." "You may as well not even exist." "There is no collateral." "No, we already have a second on the house." "But don't the testimonials make a difference?" "Did you see here?" "The mayor's wife can't wait to become a client." "We simply can't do it." "Now, get yourself a Social Security card, establish credit... and buy yourself a car." "You have a decided advantage." "You can get one of those handicapped placards." "No problem." "Park anywhere you like." "I can't believe it." "It'sjust an outrage." "But don't you worry." "This isn't the end of it." "We'll get your money somehow." "[Kim] But that's breaking and entering." "My parents have insurance up the rear." "What'll it cost them?" "A little hassle?" " A week, and my dad will have a new and better everything." " We can't." " Look, there's a guy who'll give us cash for this stuff. -jim, I don't want to." "You don't want us to have our own van like Denny's where we can be by ourselves?" " With a mattress in the back?" " Why can't you just do it?" "My father keeps the damn room locked." "We need Edward to get us in." "Can't you take the key, like, when he's sleeping or something?" "The only thing he hangs onto tighter is his dick." "Come on, Kim." "Razor blades will do anything for you." " What do you mean?" "That's not true." " No?" "Why don't you ask him?" " That's not fair." " What's fair got to do with it?" "There isn't any other way." "There's gotta be." "Look, I've wracked my brain." "Don't you want us to have our own van?" "Yeah." "[ Kim] lim, the lights are on." "No." "Those go on automatically." "They're gone for the weekend." "I told you." " That's right." "In case of burglars." " You turned off the alarm?" "What do you think?" "Come on." "Let's go." "I hate this." "I can't believe this is happening." " Are you sure he doesn't know this isjim's house?" " He's never been here." " This person stole from you?" " Shh!" "Keep your voice down." "I told you, he stole." "Come on." "Let's go." "Tell his parents, and they'll make him give it back." "Shh." "I already tried, but the guy's parents are like he is." "You told Kim you'd do this." "Come on." "Let's go." "Come on." "Come on!" "Come on." "Okay." "Come on." "Come on." "Come on." "Come on." "Come on!" "Come on!" "Oh, my God." "Come on." "[Alarm Blaring]" "The bastard had it wired separately." "Come on!" " No,jim!" "We can't just leave him here!" " Come on!" "[Alarm Continues]" "Come on!" "Come on!" "Keep moving!" " Come on." " I can't do this!" " Come on, Kim." " Stop!" "Put me down!" "[ Scissors Sliding Over Doorknob]" "[Tires Screeching]" "[Alarm Continues]" "[ Sirens Wailing]" "We know you're in there." "We're in the process of deactivating the system so that you can come out." "[Alarm Stops]" " Denny, turn around!" " No way." "Jim, it's your house." "They can't arrest you for setting off the alarm." " We'll just" " We'll tell 'em we freaked and ran!" " We're not going back there." " We have to go back!" " No, because my father would prosecute!" " His own son?" " Especially his own son!" "If Edward tells, I'll kill him!" " Denny, turn around!" " No!" " Turn around!" "You have to!" " No!" "We want your hands high in the air where we can see them." "Your hands up!" "He's got something in his hands- looks like knives." "Drop your weapons!" "I repeat- drop your weapons!" "I'm gonna ask you one more time." "This is your last warning." "Drop your weapons." "If you fail to do so, we'll have to open fire." "Don't make us do that, buddy!" "Drop your weapons!" "Drop them now!" "Looks like we got a psycho." "Prepare to fire!" " No, no, no!" " Get back!" "Those are his hands!" "Those aren't weapons!" "Those are his hands!" "Please, we know him." "All right." "Cuff him." " But we can see him now?" " You can see him now." " We're gonna have to hold him overnight for observation." " He has to stay all night?" " You can pick him up in the morning." " Oh, dear." "Oh, Edward." "Hello, Edward." "Oh, Edward, dear." "I blame myself." "[ Bill] What in God's name was going through your mind, son?" "[ Peg] Why didn't I set a better example?" "You saw how I envied ]im's parents their money." "What were you gonna do with that stuff once you had it?" "I blithely say, "Oh, we'll get money for the salon somehow."" "But I never meant stealing." "Dear, stealing's not the way to get it." "Stealing's not the way to get anything." "[ Bill] Except trouble, and you're in a serious heap of that." "Oh, Edward, why ever did you do this?" " Damn those TV programs." " Damn them all to hell." "Or did somebody put you up to this?" "Will he be okay, Doc?" "The years spent in isolation have not equipped him... with the tools necessary to judge right from wrong." "He's had no context." "He's been completely without guidance." "Furthermore, his work- the garden sculptures, hairstyles and so forth- indicate that he's a highly imaginative, uh, character." "It seems clear that his awareness of what we call "reality"... is radically underdeveloped." "But will he be a/lr/ghz' out there?" "Oh, yeah, he'll be fine." "Listen, it could keep me up all night worrying about you." "You watch yourself, you hear?" "[ Snipping]" "I just happened to be up, so I heard all this noise and I ran out." "All along, I felt in my gut there was something wrong with him." "It could have been my house." " It could have been any of our houses, but- - / warned you, d/dn?" "I?" "I saw the sign of Satan on him." "You didn't heed my warning, but now you will... because now you can see it too." "Edward,just stay right here." " What do you have to say in your defense?" " Nothing." " He doesn't want to talk right now." " You have to say something." " What?" " No, h-he can't talk right now." " He can't talk." " No comments?" "No remarks?" "So, were you set up?" "What was going through your mind?" " We have to get in the house!" " What do you have to say for yourself?" " He'll talk to you later." " One commentjust one comment." "Oh, for goodness sakes, Lois." "I'm gonna see you at our Christmas party before I get you here for your haircut." "Of course we're gonna have it this year." "We have it every yea r." " Why wouldn't we have it this year?" " [Lois Talking, indistinct]" "Well, you may think that, but you're wrong." "You're here." "They didn't hurt you, did they?" "Were you scared?" "I tried to makejim go back... but you can't makejim do anything." "Thank you for not telling them that we" "You're welcome." "It must have been awful when they told you whose house it was." "I knew it wasjim's house." "You did?" "Yes." "Well, then why'd you do it?" "Because you asked me to." "_ [Jim] Klmba!" "Kimmy!" "[ Whistling] Hey!" " Don't!" " What's the matter with you?" "When are you gonna stop?" "I did what I could." "My old man thinks he's retarded." "Otherwise he'd still be in jail." "What more do you want from me?" " You could tell the truth." " So could you!" "You were there too." " It wasn't my idea." "You know I didn't want to do it." " But you did do it." " [ Sighs]" " I don't get why you give such a shit anyway." "[ Glass Shattering]" "[ Bill] We're gonna try and help you find a way to replace the drapes and the towels... but our confidence in you, Edward, is not gonna be so easy to replace." "[ Kim] Dad." "Okay." "A little ethics." "You're walking down the street, find a suitcase full of money." "There's nobody around." "No human person is in evidence." "What do you do?" ""A": you keep the money." ""B": you use it to buy gifts for your friends and your loved ones." ""C": you give it to the poor." ""D": you turn it in to the police." " Dad, this is really stupid." " Kim!" " I'd keep the money." " Simmer down." "Edward?" "Hey, how 'bout after dinner we go down to the bowling alley?" "That would be fun." " You're not seeingjim tonight?" " No." "You know, we had the coolest show-and-tell today." "This kid brought in a box of baby possums- 10, maybe 12- totally naked, no hair at all." "Honey, this is fascinating, but I don't think your father's finished yet." "Thank you, dear." "Edward, we're waiting." "Give it to my loved ones?" "Oh, Edward, it does seem that that's what you should do... but it's not." "You dope!" "Everybody knows you're supposed to give it to the police." "Good thinking, Kevin." "Well, think about it, you guys." "I mean, that's the nicer thing to do." "That's what I would do." "We're not trying to confuse him." "We're trying to make things a bit easier for him." "So let's cut the comedy for a little while." "I am being serious, Dad." "it's a much nicer thing to do." "Well, we're not talking nice." "We're talking right and wrong." " Shut up!" " Oh, goodness sake." "No wonder poor Edward can't learn right from wrong... living in this family!" "Well, did you hear what he did to Peg's curtains?" "It's unbelievable that they're having their Christmas party anyway." " Are you going?" " I don't think so." "He practically raped Joyce, you know, threatening her with those knives of his." "It's a miracle she escaped." "Oh, I don't have anything against Bill and Peg, but" "I know, I know." "And they've got that teenaged daughter in the house." "Oh, those poor things." "After what happened to me." "Can you imagine?" "What did you say to Peg about the Christmas party?" " I said I hoped we could make it." " I lied too." "Edward?" "You want to give me that new haircut?" " Again?" " Yeah." "Sure." "It makes me proud to have you as my own personal hairdresser." " H/j honey" " Oh, hi." " Kevin, you wanna play "Scissors, paper, stone"?" " No." " Why?" " it's boring." "I'm tired of always winning." " Other people's feelings" " A few manners!" " I'll be outside." "Just never you mind, dear." "Just" " You cut away." "Cut away." "♪♪ [singing]" "[Stapling]" "♪♪ [ Singing Continues]" "♪♪ [ Humming]" "It needs something... else." "What do you think, honey?" " More bells?" " More bells." "Okay." "Mom, do you really think we should be having this party?" "Of course I think we should be having this party." "Of course I do."

" Stay away from her, okay?" "I mean it." "You can't touch anything without destroying it." "Who the hell do you think you are, hanging around?"
