"I'll bring the stuff over tomorrow." "Where were you?" "I was at Bushwhacker's." "What are you wearing?" "Oh, that's my skirt." "For what?" "I bought you a hamburger." "Why were you at Bushwhacker's?" "Dancing." "With who?" "Fred." "Who's Fred?" "He's really nice." "I'm gonna bring him home, and you can meet" "Where'd you get those boots?" "These are nothing." "Everybody wears them when they dance." "How much money did you spend on them?" "I didn't buy them." "Fred bought them for me." "He wanted to make me feel part of his group, and so he bought the boots that I tried on." "He just wanted me to feel good about myself." "If he really wants you to feel good, Mom, tell him to use the money that he spent buying you that hamburger and those boots on your feet and help pay for the $400 electric bill, because I'm out of money." "[door slams]" "$17, please." "Thank you." "I've worked here for seven years, Max." "I'm just asking this one favor." "Look, you can take the full amount out of my next check." "Because I don't have any heat in my house." "Yeah." "Okay." "Yeah, yeah." "I understand." "Damn, it's cold." "Is Andy Hardy your son?" "Well, I have heard something to that effect." "(woman) Grandma always writes about him." "(Frances) Isn't this neighborhood just so beautiful?" "Look." "Look." "It would be fun to have a family like that." "Your family's not like that?" "No." "Holy shit." "What?" "That's Frank Jones." "Do you like him?" "Everybody around here likes him." "Do you like him?" "I don't know." "Then why "holy shit"?" "Because my brother-in-law, at the beginning of the season, stood for 50 hours with one hand on a pickup truck that that guy used to own." "It was some contest to get people excited about the idea of a new coach." "Did he win?" "It was between him, a mom, and someone else." "And when he thought no one was looking, he tried to knock the mom's hand off the truck, got caught, and they disqualified him." "It was on the news." "Yeah, he talks about it all the time." "He says that if he would have won that truck, he could have sold it for five times what it's worth because of what Frank Jones has done for football." "I hate football." "I hate that I don't love it." "I don't want to watch or talk about anyone else's life anymore." "I just want to live ours." "Hold this bag." "(Jason) I don't get what we're doing." "We're gonna pay your electric bill." "Okay, push when I tell you to, all right?" "Okay, now." "[coins jangle]" "Voilà." "You can empty the whole machine like that." "That's stealing." "It's surviving." "It's better than sitting in a cold house, isn't it?" "Push it." "That's how you make money?" "This and other things." "Like what?" "Push it." "[coins jangle]" "Didn't you make money from singing?" "[sighs]" "Look, I was married two years ago for one year, and my therapist says that I married a homosexual because my father was one." "I never believed it, and he's not alive anymore for me to ask." "When you're famous, people try to take everything from you." "And my husband took it all." "Can't you start singing again?" "Who I was then and who I am now are two totally different people." "I'll never sing again." "Maybe it was the Nembutal or the Seconal or the electroshock therapy." "I don't know." "(man) Hey!" "Shit, let's go." "[laughter]" "(Jason) When my neighbor died, he asked his family to be cremated." "And his last wish was to have his ashes poured into the concrete of the new stadium." "When I die, I want to be cremated, and I want my ashes to be scattered in the ocean far away from the fans." "He couldn't do that." "He couldn't do what?" "To blow him back like that, he should have a rifle." "It only takes a ten-pound weight dropped from about an inch to equal the impact of the gun he's holding." "My dad's a- my dad was a cop." "Is that how he died?" "In the line of duty?" "No." "He killed himself." "That's how I almost died." "I caught my husband in bed with another man, and- and, um, I couldn't" "I couldn't take it." "I scare you." "No." "Yes, and I'm not gonna tell you any more, because the less you know about me, the less you're gonna hate me in the end." "In the end of what?" "When I said that you knew me, you just didn't know you knew me." "It wasn't because I'm a famous singer." "It's because we're soul mates." "Don't." "Do." "No." "Yes." "Please." "(Frances) Please." "[distant train whistle]" "(Jason) I've lived in the same house for 25 years, and every Christmas, the only thing I've ever wanted was to be somewhere else until now." "Oh-ho." "(Dana) Awesome."

"All right, dude, cough it up." "What, the money?" "Yeah, what do you think I'm talking about?" "You don't get the money." "Fuck that!" "Sorry." "You traded the purse." "You don't get the money with it." "When I traded it, you got the money." "Because you didn't find it." "Because he's retarded." "You know what?" "You better watch who you're calling retarded, especially you, Terri." "(Dana) You're not getting the money, Darryl, again." "It's Jason's." "All right, Fred, it's your turn."

"But, dude, I'm not gonna take it easy on you." "I'm serious." "All right." "Hell, yeah." "Shit, I'll make that trade." "You better not cry about it." "I'll go for the big box." "Tampons, man." "What the hell am I gonna do with tampons?" "God damn it, I didn't get one good thing, and the only thing I liked I traded to Jason." "Oh, I'll take them." "I need them anyway."

"And after that, pills were the only thing in my diet." "Jason, before you, I felt closer to the end than I did to the beginning." "Now I don't." "You say they need you to stay." "But I need you to go with me." "[distant train whistle]" "Come on." "Get up." "I got to go." "Get up." "I'm gonna sing again." "You made me want to sing." "[engine revs]" "Hey, Gus." "What are you doing?" "It's time for the movie." ""Popcorn, 7:30." "Movie, 8:00."" "Right." "Um, I'm really glad you remembered, 'cause I was running pretty late." "[reels clicking softly]" "(woman) They were massacred?" "(man) Yes, ma'am." "Your whole family?" "My mother and father and kid brother were scalped and mutilated." "My two sisters, 12 and 14, they weren't killed right away." "They were captured." "They didn't last long." "The Indian women got jealous and stoned them to death." "Maybe my folks wouldn't have approved of me becoming an Indian planter." "I never had the chance to ask them." "(man) I suppose you wonder why I sent for you." "I was educated as a soldier, so I know a fighter knows best the meaning of peace." "[engine revving] [tires screeching]" "[loud rattling]" "[man speaking indistinctly]" "(Jones) This is a big-game atmosphere:" "a lot of noise, a very talented team we're playing." "I've looked at all their films, gettin' to know a lot about them, very athletic team, excellent speed, both sides of the ball." "A lot of great athletes on that team." "And they, uh, they've got a good kicking game, so it should be- it should be an excellent game." "[man over radio]" "And what will the team do tonight for New Year's?" "[Jones over radio] The guys will enjoy themselves, but we will have a very calm New Year's Eve, get to bed early, you know." "I hope they lose." "Hey, I know where this party is tonight." "The thing about this party is that Tina and I weren't invited." "And the thing I'm gonna love most about not being invited is that we're going anyway." "You can come if you want." "No, that's all right." "All right." "But you let me know if you change your mind, 'cause it's gonna be sick." "Hey, Andrew." "Hmm?" "I'm leaving." "Yeah, me too, in a half hour." "No, I mean I'm leaving for good." "When?" "Soon." "What about Gus?" "I got to tell him." "[reels clicking softly]" "I'm sorry." "But I don't want to be an emperor." "That's not my business." "I don't want to rule or conquer anyone." "I should like to help everyone, if possible." "Jew, Gentile, black man, white:" "we all want to help one another." "Human beings are like that." "We want to live by each other's happiness, not by each other's misery." "We don't want to hate and despise one another." "In this world there's room for everyone, and the good Earth is rich and can provide for everyone." "The way of life can be free and beautiful." "But we have lost the way." "Greed has poisoned men's souls, has barricaded the world with hate." "It has goose-stepped us into misery and bloodshed." "We have developed speed, but we have shut ourselves in." "Machinery that gives abundance has left us in want." "Our knowledge has made us cynical, our cleverness, hard and unkind." "We think too much and feel too little." "More than machinery, we need humanity." "More than cleverness, we need kindness and gentleness." "Without these qualities, life will be violent, and all will be lost." "[door slams]" "[reels clacking]" "Gus?" "Hey, Gus, wake up." "[sobbing]" "[engine revs]" "Are you sure you don't want us to take you home?" "[air horns sounding]" "[people cheering]" "[over phone] Hey, this is Andrew." "I'm not near my phone right now" "[Darryl over phone]" "You've reached Darryl, Dana, and Tommy, Jr." "You know what to do." "Hey, there." "How's it going?" "Fine." "What are you doing?" "You going to a party?" "Where's the party?" "What's going on?" "It's New Year's Eve." "No, I'm just trying to get home." "Are you sure you're all right?" "I could- I could give you a ride." "Do you want a ride?" "Is that what you're doing?" "You're trying to call somebody for a ride?" "Who are you calling?" "I don't know." "Let me give you a ride." "Come on." "It's better than calling people who aren't home." "How about a little music?" "[phone rings]" "Hey." "What's that?" "You're kidding me." "You're kidding me." "That's just great." "Holy cow." "I'm just about to" "I know, I know." "Calm down." "Okay, okay, okay." "I'll meet you there." "We had to pay someone $300 to take a double shift so we could have the night free together." "Do you mind if we stop by my apartment real fast?" "You see, it worked out for us, so we're gonna meet there." "And then we can give you a ride home." "10 minutes tops, I promise." "Yeah, okay." "That's fine." "(Judy Garland) # The kiss that's waiting for you #" "(Robbie) Are you sure you don't want to take off your coat?" "No, I'm fine." "He should be here any minute." "You know, this is still considered by many to be the greatest night ever in the history of show business." "It was the number one album in 1960, won five- five Grammys." "It was ranked number nine for the entire '60s, which is pretty unbelievable, considering the decade was ruled by rock and roll." "As of 1990, It still ranked the 29th best selling album of all time." "And it's never been out of print." "What is it?" "Judy Garland live at Carnegie Hall." "Oh, Judy." "Judy, Judy, Judy." "She was- she was dark." "Eight years old, her mother had her singing in shows with her sisters." "Gave her amphetamines in the morning to pick her up, downers in the evening to put her to bed." "Her father was a homosexual, would move the family around constantly, because he'd hit on all the teenage boys and get them run out of town." "Flash-forward to her second marriage to Vincent Minnelli, director of that movie." "She comes home one day to find him in bed with another man, runs into the bathroom and tries to commit suicide." "[sighs]" "Every little thing would set her off." "The drugs probably didn't help." "The electroshock therapy probably didn't either." "She would fall in love with men, telling them that they were her soul mates only to have affairs with her costars and cheat on every man she ever told she loved." "But there's something about her that's just- it's just magic." "(Judy Garland) # And hold me close in your arms # # all through the night #" "# I know tomorrow morning # # you will say good-bye and amen #" "[man #1 over TV] We have a tied football game:" "NSU 17, Tennessee 17." "And there are about 80,000 eyes down on the sideline looking at Frank Jones for the key play to come up here, and I think this is really where he's gonna deliver." "[man #2 over TV] He stands in the pocket, steps up, fires down field." "Caught, Sean McNabb, at the 50." "And now R.J. Ventimigila can be the hero for NSU." "(man #1) This is a 48-yard field goal attempt." "(man #2) Okay, we're set to go." "The snap, ball down, kick up." "Kick is on the way, and it is-it is-oh!" "[all cheering]" "[man over TV] And the game is over, and NSU are the Fiesta Bowl champions." "(man #1) Wow, NSU, you have the best college football team in the world right now." "(man #2) And you also have the best college football coach." "I got to tell you, Frank Jones came through with a perfect season as he makes his way through the crowd with all the congratulations." "(man #1) Ladles and gentlemen, you're looking at the guy, the man of the hour." "Frank Jones and his NSU team are now the college football champions of the world." "(man #2) Look at the fans." "They're going crazy." "They've been waiting for this for a long time." "(man #1) Yes, five long years in the making, and this man delivered tonight with a perfect season." "(man #2) He certainly did." "(man #1) The signs- there they are." "Wow." "(man #2) You got to be excited for Frank." "Definitely the man of the moment." "What can you say?" "It's been a great year, hasn't it?" "(man #1) There's his son, his wife, and there's his daughter." "(man #2) And that's his home team, and they're proud." "(man #1) The fans, the family, they've all just certainly played an integral part of Frank's career here and definitely for this entire season." "(man #2) What a season." "Little did we know..." ""Jason, the brain has enough oxygen" ""to support full awareness for 10 to 15 seconds" ""after the heart is destroyed." ""Go for the head." "A lifetime full of pain, who needs 10 to 15 seconds more?"" "[man over TV] Now we have more reaction coming in," "John, from the capital city." "Let's go to Brian Blanford in Lincoln." "He's at 14th and O Street in downtown Lincoln." "Brian?" "Now, this is the scene here at 14th and O Streets, a few blocks away from where fans broke into University Stadium and tried, unsuccessfully, to tear down the goal posts." "However, they were able to do about $2,000 damage to the gates, and some of the artificial turf was burned." "(Jason) They call the hole left by the passage of a bullet through the body a permanent cavity." "A permanent cavity is what cops strive for when shooting someone dangerous." "They say the best bullet for the job when trying to incapacitate someone dangerous is the one that's bigger, the one with the most velocity, the one that creates the largest permanent cavity, the one that kills faster." "What I think what would be worse is being hit by a smaller caliber bullet over... and over... and over... [crowd cheering]" "A lifetime full of pain." "Who needs 10 to 15 seconds more?" "[gunshot]" "I hope everyone's here." "(Jason) But it's not pain." "It's laughing with your friend at a time when you shouldn't." "It's the sweat in your palms wanting to know someone you see and the pit in your stomach when they actually see you." "It's being touched by hands that aren't your own." "It's the thrill of an escape that almost wasn't." "It's the embarrassment you feel naked for the first time." "It's helping a friend find something they lost." "It's a smile, a joke, a song." "It's what someone does that they like doing." "It's what someone does that they like remembering." "It's the thinking of things you may never do... [gunshot]" "and the doing of things you may never have thought." "It's the road ahead and the road behind." "It's the first step and the last and every one in between, because they all make up the good life."
