"I'll bring you the alien, the creature, the being, right on your table." "You really are my father." "Yes." "Do you think we'll ever find my mum?" "We'll find her." "The whole town's changed but faces all looks the same." "Yeah, not much of a life, is it?" "What we're doing?" "It'll do." "We'd better get you registered." "What do you mean "we", pale face?" "It's OK, I can handle it." "Are you sure?" "Yeah!" "It's routine _____!" "Gee, I don't know where my transcripts went." "We've been moving around so much, I had a tutor last semester," "I guess she took them with her when she went to Argentina." "Old cert record?" "Must be with the transcript, well, unless they were lost in the fire." "You'd better go." "Good luck in your job interview." "Good luck in school, I'll see you tonight." "I don't care if he's got a brownie Instamatic and he can't find the little button, a newspaper without pictures is going to look pretty funny!" "Off!" "Why don't you call one of your yuppie buddies on the New York Times?" "Maybe they'll send a photographer out to cover the City Council meeting for you." "I got a better idea!" "Why don't you write another 10 inches to cover the blank space?" "What?" "Do you think that the public is really interested in what the Council have for lunch?" "Excuse me?" "They said to talk to you about a job as a photographer?" "Yeah!" "Right!" "What's your name?" "Paul Forrester!" "Connell, you're a jerk." "Get out of here!" "Both of you!" "Hey!" "I don't know this guy!" "Are you the same Paul Forrester that took this?" "Yes!" "Paul Forrester happens to be one of the best photo journalists alive." "What would you be doing hanging around San León?" "What would anybody be doing in San León?" "Are you really Paul Forrester?" "Pictures don't lie." "Ahm, if the cops are after you, I don't wanna know." "OK?" "Now, let's talk about money." "That's a good idea." "Ahm, it's not going to be what you're used to, I'm afraid." "We run a pretty tight ship." "I'll vouch for that!" "Forrester?" "Meet Joe Connell." "He'll probably ask you to pay for your own film," "Enough, Connell!" "500 a week is as high as I can go." "OK, who buys the film?" "Don't pay any attention to Connell." "Now, how soon can you start?" "How about tomorrow?" "How about today?" "There's a City Council meeting in 30 minutes." "Look," "Here's a 100 dollars cash advance, go buy yourself some film." "Connell?" "Forrester is going with you on this." "Come on!" "Get the led out!" "The led is out!" "Touch them!" "Double!" "Let those hams cry!" "What's the matter, Hardy?" "Are you saving your energy for lunch?" "Come on!" "Touch them!" "Grab them!" "Let those hams cry!" "There you go!" "Touch them!" "Grab them!" "Let those hams cry!" "Good!" "Real good!" "Alright!" "Take a look at how it's done!" "OK!" "Everybody up!" "Alright!" "Two laps, to the shower, let's go!" "That's pretty impressive!" "Did you ever compete?" "No." "Why'd you stop running?" "Did you know you gave our number one man on a cross-county team all he could want?" "Why don't you come out with the track team, start practice tomorrow?" "I don't think so." "Get you out of gym class." "Actually, I don't want to get involved with any stuff like that." "Here you are, Forrester." "Right in there...." "Well, what about you?" "I could not stand one more feast of words." "Who's gonna write the story?" "In the unlikely event that anything happens in there worth writing about," "I'll borrow somebody else's notes, in the meantime, I'll be right across the street, in a little tavern called Julie Anne's." "You pick me up when you're through." "A picture's worth 1000 words, right?" "Click!" "Click!" "(Ladies and Gentlemen, the meeting is called to order...)" "Hi!" "Hi!" "I saw you in "P" class this morning." "You could've beaten Eric Baker if you wanted to." "Maybe, he's pretty fast." "He's not as hard as he thinks he is." "Did you join the team?" "I'm not much for teams." "My name's Kelly Jordan." "Scott Hayden." "Well, I gotta go to Math class." "Oh!" "See you around." "Yeah, sure!" "How's your day been so far?" "I'm still here!" "I think you're about to wish you weren't." "Your genius forgot to read the instructions that came with this camera." "He didn't focus it!" "Forrester?" "What's this supposed to be?" "I think they said his name was Buckwalter," "I can't see much here but" "I can see that that's not Buckwalter!" "Here!" "My God!" "He's asleep!" "That's Buckwalter!" "No!" "No, you mean that was Buckwalter!" "I can't wait to see him dance his way out of this one!" "Great shot, Paul!" "Great shot!" "Listen, what's your credit?" "Just "Photo by Paul Forrester"?" "Ah, no," "I don't want any credit." "OK, never mind." "Remember I said I didn't wanna know." "Let's suggest this for page one, and run the credit!" "How often do we get Paul Forrester, anyway?" "Yes, Sir!" "That is if Connell ever finishes his story!" "I'm working on it!" "This must bring back a lot of memories for you." "Yes!" "Chairs," "Tables..." "This..." "Who could forget?" "I'm Mrs Madison, I'm Scott's Homeroom Advisor." "I've been meeting with the parents to get some idea of the student's home life." "What do you wanna know about Scott's home life?" "Well," "I sense that something's bothering Scott, his work is alright but he's," "I don't know, he's uninvolved." "What I mean is like he's here and yet he isn't here." "Is he that way at home?" "No!" "When he's home, he's there!" "Hmm, well that certainly isn't the case, here." "It's as if he's afraid to participate." "Do you have any idea why?" "I suppose it's because we're traveling all the time." "New schools, teachers, and friends." "You know, my being a photographer and all." "Yes, and from what I hear, quite a brilliant photographer too!" "What was your Alma Mater?" "Alma Mater?" "I graduated from Radcliffe, 72" "Radcliffe?" "Ha, ha, ha, yes!" "Me too!" "Ah, "Cliffy"?" "I don't believe it!" "Of course when I went there, it was a Girls' College." "That was before they fought the sexual revolution." "I guess the whole thing was over with by the time I got there." "Who won?" "So what else did she say?" "That's all." "You spent the whole time talking about the sexual revolution?" "You're supposed to be talking about me, though." "We did talk about you!" "She likes you." "She thinks you're smart." "I didn't think she even noticed me!" "She also said there was a Homecoming Dance soon." "She asked me if I'd be a chaperone." "What's a chaperone?" "I was hoping you'd know." "Well, you don't have to worry about me, I'm not going." "Why not?" "You know why not, we have to keep a low profile." "Maybe this would be good for you to do." "Hey, you're the one that's always telling me how careful we have to be and I think you're right." "I mean, I just don't wanna get involved." "Period." "Hello?" "Hi!" "The what?" "Yeah!" "Sure!" "When?" "OK, see you!" "Who was that?" "It was Kelly Jordan." "A kid from school needs some history notes." "You never mentioned him." "Her!" "It's a girl." "What about you?" "You haven't told me anything!" "What do you want to know?" "I don't know." "Where do you come from?" "Different places, my Dad travels a lot." "What does he do?" "He's a photographer." "And you and your mother like go with him everywhere?" "Not exactly, erm..." "See, I don't have a mother." "I do, but she's not with us right now." "Are they divorced?" "Separated." "A friend of mine's parents did that too, got separated, they ended up getting a divorce." "I don't think my parents will get a divorce." "I hope not." "I think I'd freak if my parents ever did that." "They're a little weird but at least they're predictable." "What's your Dad like?" "Well, he's pretty weird, but he's OK." "Do you like traveling around?" "Yeah!" "It's great." "I mean, I..." "Seattle one day, Phoenix the next" "We just kind of bump around all the major hotspots." "It's great." "Do you wanna get going?" "Yeah, OK!" "So what about friends?" "Friends?" "Yeah, if you don't know how long you're gonna be in one place, how can you make friends?" "I do OK." "Well, it's getting kind of late." "You know?" "My Dad is picking me up in front of the library, in ten minutes." "Why the library?" "He thinks I'm studying." "He wouldn't let me hang around here on school night, would they?" "I had a good time, Scott." "Me too!" "You wanna go out sometime?" "With you?" "Yeah, with me." "Ah, I don't know." "It was just an idea." "I forgot the history notes." "How about Friday night?" "It's a date." "Welcome to the team." "A couple of things:" "You are on my team, you live by my rules." "OK?" "That means you work hard, you stay clean." "We got a tough season coming up this year and I expect you to stick to it and committed, like everybody else." "Alright?" "You told me all that, coach." "Yeah, I know I did," "But I've learnt over the years that it doesn't hurt to say some things more than once." "OK?" "Now get on that bench." "just stretch your skinny frame." "Yes, Sir!" "Are you ready?" "Mr Wright said to get going." "Mr Wright?" "Ha!" "You're cute!" "What the hell did I do with that pen?" "We're supposed to go to the City dump." "Yeah." "I've already heard about his plum." "It's just one big story after another around here." "Son of a gun!" "I thought I paid that!" "What's this?" "Ah?" "Chicago Pressman's Award, 1964." "I used to wear it when I was a reporter." "What are you now?" "Come on, let's hit the dump first." "Coach says you're gonna run with varsity against Pendleton." "Yeah, he told me." "You run good." "So do you." "Got two things to say to you." "Yeah?" "Yeah!" "I'm gonna whip your butt." "I'm glad we're on the same team," "As a matter of fact, I happen to know know what computer time costs," "Now all I'm asking f..." "Well it's still a priority with me!" "How the hell..." "What?" "I know, I'm sorry, I shouldn't raise my voice, please just print it out the first chance you get, this is really, very important." "Yes." "Yes, yes, I will, thank you." "Yes, I'll be waiting for your call." "Alright, bye." "Thank you George, one for my colleague, please put it on my tab." "Same way?" "I'll have a glass of water." "On the rocks." "And you call yourself a news photographer?" "How do you expect anyone to take you seriously if you don't drink?" "A picture's worth 1000 words, right?" "Yes." "Don't take any pictures of me." "Besides," "After what we saw at that landfill today," "I think you should follow my example and stay far away from water." "Does that go for ice too?" "George?" "George?" "Let me have another, hold the ice." "So, erm..." "Did you enjoy your day waiting for garbage and toxic waste?" "That's my job!" "That's what they pay me for." "Your job?" "Do you really think they care about you?" "They're trying to sell this rag and as soon as they do," "Believe me, you'll be out in the street with the rest of us." "I don't like to stay in one place too long anyway." "There's too much to see!" "You are a real Cub Scout, aren't you?" "Talent, integrity," "I bet you help little old ladies across the street." "But what are you doing here?" "Taking pictures." "No, you can do that in New York or LA," "You don't work in San León unless you can't work anywhere else." "You messed up somewhere, didn't you?" "Is that why you're here?" "It's getting late." "If you don't like what you're doing why don't you do something else?" "Cos I don't know anything else." "I don't change what I do, I just change why I do it." "I thought you weren't gonna come." "I was just sort of watching from over there." "Why?" "I wanted to make sure you'd be here." "Well, I got the tickets." "So did I!" "I'd like my money back, please." "Thank you!" "What's wrong?" "I got an itch on my back." "Where?" "In here?" "Thanks!" "Well, Cub Scout, shall we scour the city for a scoop?" "I gotta get home to my son." "How touching!" "Cute!" "I think maybe you shouldn't be driving?" "The only time I'm too drunk to drive is when I'm passed out." "And that won't be for another 20 minutes." "See you later." "See you!" "What the...?" "The transmission!" "The transmission is shot!" "I should have left this thing at the dump!" "Do you mind if I give it a try?" "Be my guest!" "Cub Scout!" "Check this out." "Just came in with a wire from the coast." "It's out of focus!" "Yeah?" "Look again." "Ha, ha, ha!" "That's a terrific shot." "Look who took it." "I wonder why Paul Forrester's working out there." "What's the difference?" "He's either hiding from a bookie or a cookie." "We can run this in the "Pictures worth 1000 bucks" department." "Perfect." "The bus should be coming any minute." "I had a good time." "Me too." "Homecoming Dance is next week." "Yeah, I'm not going." "Of course you are!" "I am?" "How else am I supposed to get to go?" "You want me to take you to the Homecoming Dance?" "Thank you!" "I'd love to." "Oh!" "Young love!" "How would you like to start your life all over right there?" "Hi!" "You're kind of late, aren't you?" "Oh, I was just practicing my reading." "Upside down?" "Well, if you practice, erm long enough, you can read it away." "How was the movie?" "Terrific!" "You really like her, don't you?" "She's OK." "I saw you kissing at the bus stop." "You were spying on me?" "No!" "No!" "I was driving by and I happened to see you." "Scott, it's a father's job to talk to his son about things like these." "We learn all about that in biology." "No, I'm not talking about biology." "I'm talking about feelings." "When I left, your mother would hurt." " This is different." " Are you sure?" "Look I gotta get up tomorrow morning early." "Scott!" "Will you have the same pain when we have to leave?" "No!" "Don't worry about it, OK?" "I got it under control." "So how was the snack, girls?" "Oh, you mean you didn't stop for milk and cookies, so my   my stopwatch is on the freeze." "But I got a solution." "I'm gonna give you a one minute head start." "I'm fresh as a daisy and I'm gonna be running hard, and if I beat any of you, back to the starting line at the school yard" "Don't let it happen." "You'd better get going!" "You got 57 more seconds." "No, no, no, come on, this way!" "Hey what's going on?" " Follow us, Scott!" " Through here!" "We beat him every time." "Wow!" "Hey!" "Hahahaha!" "What stopped you, man?" "OK, guys, here it is." "Some time between 5 and 6 AM this morning," "Matthew Wheeler, aged 63, a blind news vendor was beaten and robbed." "He leaves no known survivors and an autopsy is pending to determine the exact cause of death." "We have no leads at this time." "You'll be apprised of the details of the investigation as they develop." "Thank you." "Get some coverage of that newsstand around the corner and also some of the cops too." "Forrester!" "Satellite photos?" "Sir?" "You're supposed to be checking the latest satellite photos." "They're finished." "And?" "Nothing." "Now I'm checking something else." "A newspaper?" "I get a lot of ideas from this newspaper." "For instance," "Last week they had a story about a farmer in Indiana, who heard a funny noise outside, and when he looks outside, he sees a pulsing light, sort of hovering above his hen house, and guess what?" "No!" "I want you to run down to the data section to see if my print-outs are ready." "And Wiley?" "Get me some coffee on your way back." "Hey!" "Alright, Paul!" "That picture you took at the City Council meeting got picked out by the AP, congratulations." "Way to go!" "AP, what do you know?" "They'll probably run it all over the country." "Great." "Care about the glory?" "Cub Scout?" "Just wanna take good pictures?" "I don't get it." "You say you've been around but it's like you're seeing everything for the first time." "That's what I do." "Sorry, it just doesn't add up." "From Time and Newsweek covers to here, that's a long slide." "You just don't look like you've been through it." "You still care." "And you don't?" "Believe me!" "There's nothing new for me under the Sun," "I've seen it all, too many times." "Maybe you haven't." "Hey, rag tux, dude!" "Alright!" "You must be Scott's father." "We're Kelly's parents." " Scott's date?" " Oh!" "Rag tux, dude!" "Narrowly..." "Totally." "Nice to meet you!" "Oh, oh!" "Is that you father?" "Ah!" "Yeah, that's him!" "He's cute!" "Hot tux, too." "Let's go say hi." "No, later, OK?" " Hi!" " Oh, hi!" "I just met Kelly's parents." "Narrowly and totally!" "Do you wanna dance?" "No!" "Oh, right!" "You unreconstructed type think the man should do the asking, huh?" "No!" "It's not that!" "It's just that I don't know how." "To this stuff?" "Who does?" "Come on!" "Wow!" "Ho!" "I'm so glad you came this evening." "I've been wanting to talk to you." "about the remarkable change in Scott." "Of course, I've seen it before." "You know, once a youngster becomes accepted." "they're like flowers blooming." "You're son is at home here now." "He belongs." "We have to talk." "OK, I'm sorry I'm so late, it's just the best party I've ever been to in my life." "It's not about that." "A picture that I took got picked up by a national wire service." "So?" "It had my name on it." "Fox might see it." "Wait." "I know how you feel." "No, you don't." "Maybe Fox won't see it." "What if he does?" "Well, then let him!" "For the first time in my life," "I have friends," "I have a place I care about." "You can run if you want to, but I'm staying." "You can't stay, Scott, you know that." "This is all your fault," "If I had a normal father, like every other kid." "You are what you are." "There's nothing you can do about it." "You should have thought about that before you came back." "I came back because of the feelings that I had for your mother." "Now I have those feelings for you, it's the bond, that keeps us together." "Now you're forming new attachments..." "That's the point!" "The point is," "You're thinking with your heart, not your brain." "There's a real danger out there, you're not seeing it." "I just don't wanna spend the rest of my life running." "If we don't run, you won't have a life." "Heading for the office?" "Hop in!" "Thanks but I'd rather walk." "How did you know where I live?" "I used to be a reporter, remember?" "Listen, I've been thinking about what you said, and maybe I haven't seen it all." "Sometimes the most amazing things are right in front of us." "and you don't even notice..." "We can be a hell of a team, you and me." "I mean, we could make Woodward and Bernstein look like Micky Mouse and Donald Duck!" "Who?" "Yeah!" "Cute!" "Cute!" "Look, just think about it," "OK?" "Enjoy your walk." "You nervous?" "I've never done this before." "I just know you're gonna win." "And I know you're gonna break the tape first and when you do I'll come down running from the stand, just like in Rocky." "Well, suppose I come in ninth." "Then I'll still come running down." "How are you feeling?" "Great!" "Hey, let's try to stay close to each other at the beginning, then we can kill off their pace, and set each other up for the finishing kick." " Whatever takes the team to win." " You got it!" "(OK, off the track, everyone!" ")" "(We're at the start of the cross-country)" "(Come on, everybody get off!" "We gotta get going!" ")" "I thought you had to go to work." "I got off early." "I've been thinking, maybe he won't see the picture." "I'm glad you're here." "(Cross-country runners to the starting line!" ")" "(The race is about to begin!" ")" "Break a leg." "I'll ask for something different but thanks." "(Come on, guys!" ")" "Good luck!" "Don't choke on my dust." "(Take your mark!" ")" "(Set!" ")" "(The runners are leaving the track)" "Where are you going?" "Hey!" "You can't quit!" "Come on!" "We gotta get out of here!" "What's wrong?" "Fox is on town!" "(The runners have one left round the track to go)" "What happened to this guy Hayden?" "Hey!" "Forrester!" "Forrester!" "Paul!" "What's going on?" "Come on, Cub Scout!" "You can't run out on me!" "Not now!" "We can help each other!" "I'm not your Cub Scout." "I can't help you across the street, but you can do it yourself." "My God!" "Who are you?" "Answer the question!" "I'm something new under the Sun." "(And Eric Baker from Union is the winner of the race!" ")" "What happened?" "I don't know!" "I guess he shone on." "First time I run with him, and he quit!" "He didn't quit!" "I don't what happened, why or anything, but I know Scott Hayden didn't quit!" "I don't want you or anybody else to say that again!" "Come on, Scott, let's go." "I'm coming." "I'm sorry." "It's OK." "Come on, let's go." "Hmm." "I'm sorry." "Oh, forget it." "I can't!" "Everything we had to leave behind... school." "A girlfriend." "Friends." "A girlfriend." "A nice place you loved." "A girlfriend." "A girlfriend." "I'm sorry because it means so much to you." "I'd like you to have these things growing up, and to be able to give them to you but I can't." " When we find Jenny..." " Things will be great!" "That's why we'll keep looking, right?" "Right!" "We still got each other, right?" "Right." "It's too bad, though." "What?" "That you couldn't finish the race." "You were running pretty fast." "Who knows?" "You might have won." "Are you kidding?" "Those guys were crawling!" "They were backing up!" "No contest!" "No, you weren't running that fast!" "I suppose you could do better." "Ha, ha, ha..." "Are you telling me that you're a runner?" "Are you kidding?" "You see that tree down there?" "Race you, go!"
