"Hey, you got a room?" "Hey, man!" "You got a room?" "You asshole!" "I'm going down to Mardi Gras I'm gonna get me a Mardi Gras queen" "Oh, man." "Wow, Mardi Gras." "That's gonna be the weirdest, you know?" "You know what we ought to do first thing?" "Go and get us a groovy dinner." "Yeah, break out some of that cash, man." "Out here in the wilderness, fighting Indians and cowboys on every side." "What's the matter?" "You zonked?" "Really zonked, eh?" "No, I'm just kind of tired." "You're pulling inside." "You're getting a little distance tonight." "You're getting a little distance, man." "Yeah." "Well, I'm just getting my thing together." "Yeah, right." "Come on, it's checkout time." "Hey, Billy." "Man, don't do that." "Howdy!" "What can I do for you?" "I'd like to fix my flat, if you don't mind." "No, I don't mind." "In the barn there, you'll find any tools you'll need." "Whoa, baby!" "Whoa, honey." "Turn that thing off." "You're making my horse skittish." "Sure is a good-looking machine." "Yeah." "There you go." "You fellas can sit down here." "Would you mind taking off your hat?" "We thank thee, Lord, for these thy gifts received from thy bounty." "In the name of thy only begotten son Jesus Christ, our Lord." "Amen." "Where you fellas from?" "L.A." "Los Angeles." "Los Angeles. ls that a fact?" "When I was a young man I was headed for California, but...." "Well, you know how it is." "You sure got a nice spread here." "Yeah, I sure got a lot of them." "My wife is Catholic, you know?" "Can we have some more coffee?" "No, I mean it." "You've got a nice place." "It's not every man that can live off the land, you know?" "Can do your own thing in your own time." "You should be proud." "Hey, man, what are you doing?" "Come here. I gotta talk to you, man." "Everything we ever dreamed of is in that gas tank." "You got a stranger pouring gasoline on it." "All he's gotta do is look into it and he can see" "He won't know what it is, man." "Don't worry, Billy." "Everything's all right." "All right, man." "I don't know." "I do." "Everything's fine, Billy." "That's all taken care of." "I like that." "How much further do we gotta go?" "l don't know." "Not much further." "That's what you said this morning." "I sometimes say it all day." "Really?" "You say it all day?" "We don't have much longer." "We'll be there soon." "We gotta get to Mardi Gras, man." "We're going to Mardi Gras." "Your little heart is set on that, huh?" "We got a week." "That's a week away, man." "It's a long way to Mardi Gras, baby." "It won't take us a week to get to New Orleans." "I think I'm gonna crash." "I think you have crashed, man." "I keep seeing things jumping all over the place." "Really?" "Yeah, look." "What is it?" "lt's a moth." "A what?" "Moth." "Bug." "This is a weird place, man." "That smoke's getting to me." "But I notice you're not moving." "Where are you from, man?" "Can I have a light?" "Where are you from, man?" "Hard to say." "Hard to say?" "Where are you from, man?" "It's hard to say because it's a very long word, you know?" "I just wanna know where you're from." "The city." "From a city?" "Doesn't make any difference what city." "They're all alike." "That's why I'm out here now." "That's why you're out here now?" "Why?" "Yeah." "Because I'm a long way from the city and that's where I wanna be right now." "They know you in this place?" "This place we're coming to?" "The place where we're at now?" "This place." "You're right on top of them." "l'm right on top of them?" "Yeah." "The people this place belongs to are buried right under you." "You could be a trifle polite." ""A trifle polite"?" "A small thing to ask." "You ever wanna be somebody else?" "I'd like to try Porky Pig." "I never wanted to be anybody else." "You can't hit me." "I'm invisible!" "I'm invisible!" "Hey, Sarah." "How's it going?" "Rudolph, what are you eating?" "Thanks for the stuff you brought." "How's it going?" "We can't take any more strangers." "Just too many people dropping in." "Oh, I'm not talking about you and your friends, you know that." "Last week, Susan dropped in with 12 people from Easter City." "She wanted to take 1 0 pounds of rice with her." "Naturally, we had to say no." "So she gets uptight, breaks out some hash and won't give us any." "They went outside to start their bus and couldn't get it started." "I bet you haven't had anybody around like me to rap to." "You know I love you and I want you to rap." "Oh, God, I want you to rap." "Cut that out." "I guess nobody else here is interested but I'd sure like to meet your friend." "I bet you'd like to do more than that." "I think he's beautiful." "He's beautiful." "What is that weird thing up there on the hill?" "It looks like a stage." "You got a light opera company?" "That's the mime troupe stage." "They've gone down to the hot springs to bathe." "Mime troupe?" "Hey, Lisa?" "What does this mean?" ""Starting brings misfortune." "Perseverance brings danger." "Not every demand for change in the existing order should be heeded." "On the other hand, repeated and well-founded complaints should not fail to a hearing."" "Well, when one" "Hear ye, hear ye, hear ye!" "We've come to play for our dinner or should I say, stay for our dinner." "Or even slay for our dinner." "Men at war." "How ghastly, ghastly!" "We've come to drink your wine taste your food and take pleasure in your women." "The water in that river is about 80 degrees." "You put your hand in a foot away, it's below freezing." "Oh, come on." "I've gotta get dinner on." "Who said "out" to me?" "I picked-- Unhand me!" "I played communes" "Out!" "Out!" "Out!" "Out!" "Evil eye on this place." "A double whammy for you all." "Come, my dear." "We won't play here." "Get out." "I like you." "These people got here late in the summer." "Too late to plant." "But the weather was beautiful and it was easy living." "And then came that winter." "There were 40 or 50 living in a one-room place." "Nothing to eat, out by the side of the road looking for dead horses." "Anything they could get ahold of." "There's 1 8 or 20 left." "And they're city kids." "Look at them." "But they're getting this crop in." "They'll stay here till it's harvested." "That's the whole thing." "You get much rain here, man?" "I guess we'll have to dance for that." "Look at this, man." "A seashell." "Dig." "There's nothing but sand." "They ain't gonna make it." "They're gonna make it." "Dig, man." "They're gonna make it." "We have planted our seeds." "We ask that our efforts be worthy to produce simple food for our simple taste." "We ask that our efforts be rewarded." "We thank you for the food we eat from other hands that we may share it with our fellow man and be even more generous when it is from our own." "Thank you for a place to make a stand." "Amen." "Amen." "Amen." "Let's eat." "Hark ye gentles!" "Hark ye all." "Time has come for curtain call." "Are you an Aquarius?" "Pisces?" "I guessed right." "Do you like our place here?" "Yeah." "Who sent you?" "I gotta get out of here, man." "We got things we wanna do, man." "I gotta get out of here, man." "Hey, could you take me and my friend over across the canyon?" "Yeah, anything." "It won't be out of your way, honest." "It's all right." "We're not no travelling bureau." "Why don't they get their own ride?" "Hey, hey, hey." "We're eating their food." "All right, man." "Get them together though, man." "Right." "Neil, come on." "More water!" "More water!" "When you get to the right place, with the right people quarter this." "You know, this could be the right place." "Your time's running out." "Hey, man." "Hey!" "If we're going, we're going." "Let's go!" "Yeah. I'm" "I'm hip about time." "But I just gotta go." "Parading without a permit?" "You gotta be kidding." "Do you know who this is?" "This is Captain America. I'm Billy." "We're headliners, baby." "We played every fair in this part of the country." "I mean, for top dollar too!" "Weirdo hicks, man." "A bunch of weirdo hicks." "Parading without a permit, man!" "Oh, no." "What did I do now?" "Oh, what am I gonna do now?" "Oh, my head." "All right, George." "What're you gonna do now?" "You promised these people, now." "You promised these people and you promised these people...." "Hey!" "Hey, man, would you mind?" "You just woke my friend up." "Yeah, well I'm real sorry." "I didn't realise I...." "I didn't realise." "My head." "If you don't shut your mouth, you ain't gonna have a head!" "I see you're up, Mr. Hansen." "You'll feel a lot better after this." "Thank you, Bob." "I guess I" " I guess I really tied one on last night." "Must've had a hell of a good time." "I wish I could remember it." "Could you get me a cigarette?" "You animals ain't smart enough to play with fire." "That's all right." "They're good boys." "You can give them a cigarette." "Thanks, mister." "Got a match?" "Yeah." "Thank you, Bob." "I'm sorry about the misunderstanding." "There was no misunderstanding." "We're all in the same cage here." "You must be some important dude." "That treatment" ""Dude"?" "What does he mean, "dude"?" "Dude ranch?" ""Dude"?" "No, no." ""Dude" means a nice guy, you know?" ""Dude" means a regular person." "You don't look like you're from this part of the country." "You're lucky l'm here to see you don't get into anything." "Anything?" "Well they got this here scissor-happy, beautify-America thing here." "Trying to make everybody look like Yul Brynner." "They used rusty razor blades on the last two longhairs they brought in." "I wasn't here to protect them." "See I'm a lawyer." "Done a lot of work for the ACLU." "George Hansen." "You think you can help us get out of here with no sweat?" "I imagine that I can if you haven't killed anybody." "At least nobody white." "See there?" "$25." "Not too bad for no razor blades." "You know what I mean?" "Very groovy." "Thank you." "Very groovy." "See?" "I'll bet nobody ever said that to you." "By the way, thanks for the aspirin before." "I'm getting to...." "I'm getting to think you're a regular "regular" here." "I'm not gonna tell your dad." "You just gotta be more careful." "That'd be good if the powers that be wouldn't hear about this." "The old man's not feeling good." "Know what I mean?" "Well, now, George, we won't tell your dad about that." "lsn't that right?" "That's right." "What do you say we look at these super machines we been hearing about?" "Let's get it on." "Thanks a lot, Bob." "See you later." "I'll take care of it." "Don't worry about it." "All right, Carl." "Thanks a million." "Say hello to the missus." "Yes, sir." "All right." "Here's to the first of the day, fellas." "To old D.H. Lawrence." "Indians!" "Thank you." "You know I must've started off to Mardi Gras six or seven times." "Never got further than the state line." "The governor of Louisiana gave me this." ""Madame Tinkertoy's House of Blue Lights." "Bourbon and Toulouse, New Orleans, Louisiana."" "Now this is supposed to be the finest whorehouse in the South." "These ain't no pork chops." "These are U.S. prime." "Out of sight, man." "Oh, I'd like to get over there." "How long did you boys say it would take you to get down there?" "Two or three days." "Two or three days?" "Is that right?" "Boy, I sure wish I was going with you." "Yeah?" "You got a helmet?" "Oh, I've got a helmet." "I got a beauty." "Well, old buddy, I never thought I'd ever see you again." "You know, I threw this thing away one week ago." "My mother, of all people, retrieved it." "I can't understand that." "She didn't want me to play football." "Always afraid I'd get hurt." "And here, 1 2 years later, I find it on my pillow with a note pinned next to it saying, "Save this for your son."" "Fire." "Do this instead." "No, thanks. I got some store-bought here of my own." "No, man." "This is grass." "You mean marijuana?" "Yeah." "Lord have mercy, is that what that is?" "Let me see that." "Marijuana." "Go ahead." "Light it up." "Oh, no, no, no I couldn't do that." "I've got enough problems with the booze and all." "I can't afford to get hooked." "You won't get hooked." "Well, I know." "But it leads to harder stuff." "You say it's all right?" "Well, all right, then." "How do I do it?" "Here." "Well, that's got a real nice taste to it." "Though I don't suppose it'll do me much good." "I'm so used to the booze." "You've gotta hold it in your lungs longer." "What was that, man?" "What the hell was that?" "I don't know, man." "I was watching this object like the satellite we saw." "And it went right across the sky." "And then...." "I mean, it just suddenly...." "It just changed direction and went whizzing off. lt flashed and" "You're stoned out of your mind." "Oh, yeah." "I'm stoned, man." "But, like, I saw a satellite." "And it was going across the sky, and it flashed three times at me and zigzagged and whizzed off." "And I saw it." "That was a UFO beaming back at you." "Me and Eric Heisman was down in Mexico two weeks ago." "We seen 40 of them flying in formation." "They've got bases all over the world now." "They've been coming here ever since 1 946 when scientists started bouncing radar beams off the moon." "And they've been living and working among us ever since." "The government knows all about them." "What are you talking, man?" "You just seen one of them, didn't you?" "I saw something, but I didn't see it working here." "Well, they are people, just like us from within our own solar system." "Except that their society is more highly evolved." "They don't have no wars." "They got no monetary system." "They don't have any leaders, because each man is a leader." "I mean, each man-- Because of their technology they're able to feed, clothe, house and transport themselves equally and with no effort." "You know something?" "You wanna know what I think?" "I think this is a crackpot idea." "That's what I think." "How about that?" "Think it's a crackpot idea." "If they're so smart, why don't they reveal themselves and get it over with?" "Why don't they reveal themselves is because if they did it'd cause a general panic." "Now, we still have leaders upon whom we rely to release this information." "These leaders have decided to repress this information because of the tremendous shock that it would cause to our antiquated systems." "Now, the result of this has been that the Venusians have contacted people at all walks of life all walks of life...." "Yeah." "It would be a devastating blow to our antiquated systems." "Now Venusians are meeting with people in all walks of life in an advisory capacity." "For once, man will have a godlike control over his own destiny." "He'll have a chance to transcend and to evolve with some equality for all." "How's your joint, George?" "Oh, my, I believe it went out." "I got to talking so much, I clean forgot about...." "It went out." "Save it and we'll do it tomorrow morning first thing." "It gives you a whole new way of looking at the day." "Well, I sure could use that." "Yes, I sure could use a little of that." "What the hell is this?" "Troublemakers?" "You name it, I'll throw rocks at it, sheriff." "Y'all, check what just walked in." "I like the one in the red shirt with suspenders." "White shirt for me." "I like something with black pants on." "We are in an establishment now, aren't we?" "What did you say?" "l said:" "What?" "l said:" "I can't believe." "What are they doing here?" "Look at the teeth around his neck." "Did they drive motorcycles?" "They know we're talking about them." "Hot damn!" "I'll tell you." "I'll order kidneys, because I left mine out on the road somewhere." "l like his hair all down his head." "And I like his eyes." "You know that girl over there in the corner?" "Don't look too close because the sheriff's right over there." "You know what I mean?" "Check that joker with long hair." "l checked him." "We might have to bring him to the Hilton before it's over." "l think she's cute." "lsn't she though?" "We'll put him in a woman's cell." "We ought to put them in a cage and charge admission to see them." "Those are what are known as country witticisms." "I can't believe they're here." "Let's ask them to take us for a ride." "Don't be foolish." "They'll think you-- He'll laugh in your face." "Yeah, that'd be good." "l doubt it." "l'm gonna ask them." "Be my guest." "Not when I'm around." "I don't think you're gonna." "Go ahead." "Okay." "Go ahead." "I thought at first that bunch over there their mothers were frightened by gorillas but now I think they were caught." "I think one's Alley Oop from the beads on him." "One of them darn sure is not Oola." "Look like a bunch of refugees from a gorilla love-in." "A gorilla couldn't love that." "Nor could a mother." "I wish you could mate him up with one of those black wenches." "Oh, now, I don't know about that." "And that's about as low as they come, I'll tell you." "He's a biggie." "And they're green." "No, they're not green, they're white." "White?" "You're colour-blind." "I just gotta say that." "Sure like to get some food." "I thought jails were built for humanity, and that won't quite qualify." "Wonder where they got those wigs." "They probably grew them." "Nothing else would grow on them." "You know I'm not real hungry at the moment." "You know what I mean?" "I saw two of them one time just kissing away." "Two males." "Think of it." "What should we do with them?" "I don't know, but I don't think they'll make the parish line." "Let's split." "Split?" "Yeah." "Yes, sir." "It certainly has been nice." "They got fancy bikes." "That's some Yankee queers." "Check the flag on that bike." "It sure is." "I still say they're not gonna make the parish line." "Hey, can l have a ride?" "You want a ride?" "You got a note from your moms?" "Oh, our old ladies won't mind." "Please let us have a ride." "I don't mind giving you a ride." "The man is at the window The man is at the window" "The man is at the window" "I'd love to take you girls for a ride." "You know this used to be a hell of a good country." "I can't understand what's gone wrong with it." "Everybody got chicken, that's what." "We can't even get into a second-rate hotel." "I mean, a second-rate motel, you dig?" "They think we'd cut their throat." "They're scared." "They're not scared of you." "They're scared of what you represent to them." "Hey, man." "All we represent to them is somebody who needs a haircut." "Oh, no." "What you represent to them is freedom." "Freedom's what it's all about." "Oh yeah, that's right." "That's what it's all about." "But talking about it and being it that's two different things." "It's real hard to be free when you are bought and sold in the marketplace." "Don't tell anybody that they're not free, because they'll get busy killing and maiming to prove to you that they are." "They're gonna talk to you and talk to you about individual freedom." "But they see a free individual, it's gonna scare them." "Well, it don't make them running scared." "No." "It makes them dangerous." "Swamp." "All right, man." "Swamp." "Swamp." "Swamp." "Swamp." "Swamp." "Do you ever...." "You ever talk to bullfrogs in the middle of the night?" "Not generally." "You don't?" "No, man." "You know what I used to do?" "What did you used to do?" "One thing I didn't used to do is talk to bullfrogs in the middle of the night, foolish." "You're out of your mind!" "That's right." "Hey, man." "Hey, man." "Oh, man." "Hey, man." "You okay?" "Oh, no." "Oh, God." "What are we gonna do with his stuff, man?" "Get it to his folks somehow." "There's not much here, man." "There's some money, and there's his driver's licence." "Here's his card, man." "He ain't gonna be using that." "We'll go there for just one drink, man." "No, man, now really." "He would've wanted us to, man." ""If God did not exist, it would be necessary to invent him."" "That's a humdinger." "I'm getting a little smashed, man." "A little smashed." "Wow, it's hot in here, man." "Chicks, man." "Look at those chicks, man." "Come on, man." "Hey." "There's some of the ladies." "lt's okay." "Goodbye, girls." "Later." "Howdy!" "Howdy!" "Hello." "My name is Billy." "And this here is Captain America." "Excuse me one minute, ladies." "Do you mind if I take the tall one?" "No, that's all right." "Oh, thank you." "Come here." "Come on, you little Hereford." "Get yourself over here." "You old thing, you." "I'm really from New York." "This is all just a weird act." "You're a freak, aren't you?" "My name is Mary." "You want a drink, Mary?" "No, thanks." "What's--?" "What's this?" "ls this really your hair?" "What is this?" "Is this really your hair?" "Are you kidding me?" "What are these things?" "What are these things, huh?" "I'm kind of a freak myself." "I never really thought of myself as a freak." "But I'd love to freak." "What's happening outside?" "What?" "You know, in the street." "Mardi Gras." "Well, you know, it's crowded and all that." "Yeah." "Hey, you want a drink?" "Here's to you." "Thank you." "What's the matter?" "Don't you like me?" "What?" "You paid for me, right?" "That was for my friend." "I don't...." "I'll buy you a drink." "I don't drink." "I've got an idea." "Let's go outside." "Yup." "We'll all go to Mardi Gras." "Okay." "Okay?" "Hey." "What's that?" "What's that?" "Never mind." "Just shut up and take it." "Yeah, right." "What do you do with it?" "Give it to me." "Just shut up and take it." "Put it on your tongue." "I believe in God Father Almighty creator of heaven and earth." "Going up for the last time, the last time, the last time." "was crucified, died and was buried." "He descended into hell." "The third day, he rose from the dead." "He ascended into heaven and sits at the right hand of God creator of heaven and earth." "I believe in God, Father Almighty, creator of heaven and earth."

"He descended into hell." "The third day, he rose from the dead." "He ascended into heaven and sits at the right hand of God." "He shall come to judge the living and the dead." "I believe in the Holy Ghost, the holy Catholic Church the resurrection of the body, and life everlasting." "Amen." "Glory be to the father and the son...." "How could you make me hate you so much?" "As it was in the beginning, it is now" "I hate you so much." "l want you to be beautiful." "l always wanted to be pretty." "Listen to me." "I want you to be beautiful." "No!" "You know me." "I know you." "Baby." "Okay." "Okay." "Come back!" "I know you." "full of grace, the Lord is with thee." "Blessed are thou amongst women and blessed is the fruit of thy womb, Jesus." "Make me loveable." "Holy Mary, mother of God, pray for us sinners, now and at the hour" "I know it. I know you. I know you." "I know you." "Look at them." "We're all aglow." "Look at us." "We're all aglow!" "Look." "Glow, glow, glow!" "Where's your John?" "I don't know why I like you." "l don't even know if I like you." "l know I like you." "I know I like you." "Don't you dare!" "Don't you dare!" "I can feel the outside." "I can feel the outside but I can't" "I can't feel the inside." "Okay?" "Don't stop!" "Don't stop!" "I'm dying!" "I'm gonna die!" "I'm gonna die!" "I'm dead." "I'm dead." "Do you understand?" "Mary loved...." "Oh, dear God, please let it be!" "Please help me conceive a child!" "I'm right out here." "I'm right out here." "I'm right out here." "I'm right here, out of my head." "I'm conceiving!" "Please, God, let me out of here!" "I wanna get out of here." "Do you know what I mean?" "You wanted me ugly, didn't you?" "I know you, John." "I hate you so much." "You never knew about me." "Why did you leave like that?" "Everybody else, but not you." "And not me." "I loved you." "Oh, God, how I loved you." "And you're such a cruel mother and I hate you so much." "We've done it." "We've done it." "We're rich, Wyatt." "Yeah, man." "Yeah." "We did it, man!" "We did it." "We're rich, man."
