" Then we came back here... spencer hates blues." "What do you mean?" "We had..." "The guy you're describing sounds like a totally different person." "To be honest, you don't look like the kind of woman that would be married to a man with a tattoo." "A what?" "hello." "hello, is spencer there?" "no, spencer's not here." "Who is this?" "It's Debbie." "Let me have it." "Who's Debbie?" "Debbie?" " t es?" " What do you want?" "Tell spencer I'm sorry about last night and I shouldn't have kicked him out."

" You should've seen it." "I was reaching out there and grabbed it." "It was the catch of the day." " You told me to call home." " You could have waited, put them on hold." " lt was a great catch!" " Elizabeth wasn't there." "she wasn't there?" "she didn't see it either." "Elizabeth is your wife?" "she called for you yesterday." "she called yesterday?" " Did she say anything?" " she apologised for kicking him out." "for kicking him out last night?" "I was with him." "That can't be right." " What's she talking about?" " This isn't getting easier." "my God!" "Look, it's spencer." " That's not spencer." " Of course it's spencer." "What's he doing on television?" "That's not spencer." "That's spencer." "That?" "That's not spencer." " Where did he get that shirt?" " What?" "my Elizabeth called yesterday?" "What did she say?" " They must have seen me on Tv." " What did she say?" "I gotta go. lt was fun being you."

" What?" " shit!" "What are you following me for?" "If we get busted, you'll get in trouble." "Leave!" "I can't get arrested running with an escaped con, can I?" "maybe." "he's not down there." "he's probably up the ramp." "Did Elizabeth say to tell me anything?" " Where did she call from?" " l didn't talk to her." " You didn't talk to her?" " Don't pitch to him, walk him!" "he got a hit." "The Angels are going to score." " Who talked to her?" " Jewel talked to her." "Walter's Jewel?" "she's one hot lady." "Last night we did it." "come on." "You mean I slept with Walter's daughter?" "how was I?" "You were great!" "I knew I could be great in bed." "That's him!" " Let's get out of here." " Guys, stop!" "come back, damn it!" "You got a credit card?" "Give it to me." "sweet." "Damn it." "shit!" "I can't..." "I can't believe it." "I can escape out of jail, but I can't escape out of a damn ballpark." "I guess I'll just go back to jail, that's all." "I'll just go back."

"I always got A's in gym, but this could be ridiculous." " This is a mistake!" " Yes, it is!" "Yeah!" "That was different, spencer." " Are you all right?" " That was batman." "We can still hear the game on the radio." "Let's get in the car." "And it's strike three and the Cubs have won it!" "The 1990 World Champions are the Chicago Cubs." " They did it!" " They won!"

"Jewel, too. she took me seriously." "I like her." "she was nice." "Yeah, I dug her." "I just wonder if she'll like me as Jimmy Dworski." "If the cubs can win the World series, anything's possible, right?" "All right. now I got to think how to break back into prison." "Why would you want to do that?" "I got to. I escaped, now I got to break back in so I can be released." "I found it. lt was in my filofax." "They should be in their car by now." "Let me ask you something." "how will you get back in prison with the photographers and reporters there?" "I can't believe I never thought of that." "Why didn't I think of that?" "hello?" "All right." "Jewel and I want to know what the hell is going on." "Where are you?" " l'm at Walter's." " Where?" "Answer me." "What is going on?" "I lost my filofax." "You what?" "And I quit my job." " Are you serious?" " What?" "Elizabeth, I miss you so much." "I have so many things to tell you." "The most important thing is... I love you." "I love you, too." "Will you ask my spencer if we're still on for tomorrow?" "Jewel wants to know if she and the spencer who caught the ball are still on for tomorrow." "Are you and Jewel on for tomorrow?" "I don't know." "how am I going to break back into prison?" "Wait a minute." "Oh, my God." "Yes!" "Yes, they are on for tomorrow." " Yes, you're on." " We are?" "Great!" "how about we go to hawaii?" "We leave tonight." "We will." "Why, for the first time, do I really believe you?" "because like my pal here says, I got a lot of free time." "my calendar is blank."

" l understand." "no, I mean I brought someone with me." "Jimmy Dworski's mother." "mrs." "Dworski, captain Toolman." "I hope you can help me." "I'm so worried about my poor Jimmy." "What are you going to do?" "We'll send for somebody." "Where in the hell is Jimmy at?" "can't keep this up all night." "gentlemen, listen up." "This is the warden." "We have a professional mediator who'd like to talk to you." "mediator?" " he's with jimmy's mother." " Jimmy's mother?" "bad news." "All right, father. she's all yours." "hello, prisoners." "It's Father Barnes." "I'm here with jimmy's mother." "Mrs. dworski." "This must end." "We want to come in and talk to you." "no way." "We're not letting anyone in." "Especially a mother." "If you let us in, the warden will promise complete forgiveness." " no punishment." " What?" " better food." " better food." "better what?"
