How long has the Grand Fishie seen this
friend of yours?

Ten years.

When he said his cabin was up in the
mountains, he wasn't kidding.

You haven't been in this part of the
country before?

My set didn't go in much. That must be
the turnoff. That's up ahead.

You sure this is it?

Better be.

The only one we've seen for ten miles.

Here, hock your horn.

Yahoo! Hey, Bob Ironside. Good to see
you. Complete with machinery.

Harry, I'm glad to see you. You're as
noisy as ever. Sure, there's nothing to

noisy about. Come on, let's get in here
before this thing freezes over.

Hey, how was the trip?

Beautiful. How do you like the old
homestead, huh? Beautiful.

Good.

Hi. Hi.

Mark, meet Harry Peters.

He's supposed to hold several
engineering degrees, but his greatest

lies in his vocal cords.

Nice to see you, Mark. Hey, maybe while
you're here, we can rig this thing up

with a motor, four -wheel drive, and
automatic transmission.

Take my word, he'll do it. You know it.
By the way, Bob, your bedroom's over

there, mine's over there, and Mark...
Mark's not staying.

He wants to see a friend at Camp McGee.

Oh, reunion time all around, huh? Right.

Put your things away.

Be neat.

Oh,

this is the life, Bob.

Huge amounts of smart free air is just
about three steps of some small game

hunting and a short ride to a trout
stream. Which should be frozen over by

Well, we'll just have to pour a little
of this out and make it thaw out, huh?

And if it doesn't? Well, we'll pour it
inside ourselves and it won't make any

difference, okay?

Let's start with plan B.

You've got it.

You got something in your eye?

Oh, just smoke from the fire, I guess.

Hey, you know, it's just been too long,
Bob.

Hey, why is it?

The people you like the best, you see
the least.

Reunion.

Reunion.

I read about what happened to you.

A tough break, but you managed to get
around all right. You learned to.

All set.

And neat.

Hey, help yourself to a drink before you
go, Mark. I'll be back in a sec. Gotta

make a phone call.

Phone? Well, it ain't one length of
civilization.

Yeah, that's quite a guy.

Yeah.

A little older, a little thinner.

You know, he always gives you the
feeling that the world is his own

oyster. Well, I guess you'll be all
right. I'll take off.

Bye.

Bye.

Mickey?

Mickey, this is Harry.

I saw him when you'd be up here.

But you promised it would be today. You
promised.

Look, it's a long drive up there. I paid
you enough for ten trips.

Yeah, yeah, I know. Well, then get up
here right away.

Look, I got plans for the weekend.

Listen, do you want me to take my
business to somebody else? It's okay

Just say so. Look, wait a minute. Who
said anything about that?

I'm a good customer and I pay cash. You
want to go on doing business, you get up

here. Hey, you're in a little trouble,
aren't you? Yes.

Yes, I am.

Well, look, why don't you say so?

How about right now?

Look, I can't make the drive that fast.

Tomorrow, all right?

Okay. Okay, but you better be here.

I'll meet you in the village. Sure.

And don't you forget.

Don't worry, junkie.

I won't forget.

Great day.

Yeah, I'm in the village.

You didn't eat much of yours.

Not much of an appetite tonight.

Say, you remember Marty's Steak Joint?

There was a man who could cook up a
meal. Oh, boy.

You still go there? No, he sold out to a
chain about five years ago.

The place is still there, but it's not
the same. Well, nothing is after all

time, right?

Including us.

You know about me now. How about filling
me in on your last ten years?

Oh, you know how it is. A bridge here, a
highway there.

Oh, Harry, you were never that modest
before.

From what the papers said, that bridge
here and that highway there spanned one

of the largest rivers in South America.

You know, the contractor nearly lost his
shirt on that one.

The government let the job to him
because he had the low bid.

Only he had the low bid because the
nitwit who did the estimate.

Forgot to add in the approaches to the
bread. You're kidding.

Oh.

I mean, can you see it? A great, big,
beautiful steel span and no way to get

it.

How'd they get out of it? Oh,
renegotiations, apology.

I mean, the government didn't want to
look like a fool either.

So they just swept the whole thing under
the rug.

And... Hey, hey, how about some bread?

Sounds fine.

When was that?

Five, six years ago.

Yeah, yeah, about that.

Then what did you get yourself mixed up
in?

Oh, well, then.

Her name was Felicidad.

About five feet, three inches high.

Hair black as coal, eyes like diamonds.

Almost married her.

Yeah, well, I managed to slip out of the
country before our brothers caught me.

Harry Peters, permanent bachelor. Thank
you.

I thought you said this was smog -free
air.

Well, what kind of allergy I got to be
so off it?

Listen, I got some pills in the medicine
chest. I'll be right back.

How about some more brandy, huh? I'm
still working on this one.

You were telling me about that black
-haired girl with eyes like diamonds.

Yeah, Phyllis, you thought it was quite
a woman.

Where'd you go after you escaped?

Well, let's see.

After the bridge, there was an express
highway through a jungle, four airstrips

in Palmetto Groves, and a dam.

To your continued success.

I'll drink to that.

What are you working on now? Now?

Oh, nothing much.

Relaxing a little, taking it easy. You
make it sound like your last project

you out.

What was it? When did you finish it?

Oh, a while back. Hey, I didn't invite
you up here to talk about what I've

Come on, how about some sloppy
sentimentality over the good old days,

don't have to get that sentimental.

So let's work on the allergy yet.

Harry, that's no allergy.

I'd say it was more like a cold or the
flu.

Probably.

Maybe another log on the fire.

A little chilly.

Look, are you all right?

Oh, sure. Sure, I'm all right.

Just got a little chill or something.

Maybe I need a sweater.

I probably do have a touch of flu.

Is there a doctor in the village? Maybe
he can give you something.

No need to call him now.

I'll take a run down in the morning.

Maybe pick up some antibiotics or
something.

You want a refill on your brandy?

Seems to me there's an old proverb about
an ounce of prevention being worth a

pound of cure.

Especially when that ounce is 90 proof.

Good idea.

What's that doctor's telephone number?
Mind your own business. I don't want to

call him.

I'm sorry, Bob.

You know, I didn't mean that.

I found it.

I'll be okay. You know, a slow nerd.

I'll be okay in the morning.

Don't feel you have to sit up and talk
if you're not well and you want to turn

in. Well, go ahead.

We have all day tomorrow.

Yeah.

Yeah, I think I'd better.

I'd like to.

Thanks.

Now, what about you? I mean, you're
going to need help.

Oh, I can manage.

I'm sorry, Bob. I mean...

Get a good night's sleep.

We're snowed in.

I gotta get out of here. You don't
understand. I gotta get out of here. The

radio says it's been snowing all night.

Even the snow plows haven't started yet.
I gotta get out of here. You don't

understand. What don't I understand?

That you're an addict?

All right, all right, I'm an addict. I'm
hooked. I'm a junkie.

The electricity's liable to go off any
minute. Do you have any kerosene lamps?

Harry, do you have any kerosene lamps?

Lamps, Harry.

Lamps? Yes, we'll need them tonight.

I can't make it till tonight.

You may have to.

I'm cold.

I know you are.

Here. This will help keep you warm until
I can get a fire built in the other

room.

Now, where are the lamps?

Heaven and others think.

I'll be right back.

They'll go away.

Harry, I'll be right back.

Easy, Harry. I'm here.

You don't care.

You'll feel better if you walk.

You ought to be near the fire, too.

I can't move.

Make a try.

I can't. Try.

No! Stop acting like a child.

That's easy for you to say. You're going
to... You're going to torn apart and

say you're not sick. You're just holier
than thou telling me what to do, aren't

you?

Oh, don't. Come on. Get out of here.
Come on. Just get out of here. Leave me

alone. Look, I'm trying to make you feel
better. I'll mind your own business!

Don't leave me alone. Don't.

Now, you listen to me, Harry.

It's going to be rough any way you play
it.

But you can make it a little easier on
yourself.

If you let me help you. You understand?

Yeah, I understand.

All right, now get out of that bed.

In a minute.

Now!

I can't, honestly.

Just give me a minute to pull myself
together.

Wait, please.

Would you make a call for me?

The phone is dead.

Just give me the phone. I'll make the
call. The phone is dead, Harry. You

want to make it. You don't want to have
any, do you? All right.

I'm sorry, Bob. I'm sorry. I just... I
can't help myself.

Oh, come on, all right?

Would you help me, please?

Keep this around you.

Come out by the fire.

Here you are, Harry.

Eat this.

I'm not hungry.

If you don't eat it, it'll be worse.

I can't keep it down.

Now try.

I can't. Try.

I'm sorry I'm not a better cook.

Oh, from a can.

How bad can you make it?

Here, here.

Let me.

That's better.

How long have you been hooked?

About three years.

Heroin?

You wouldn't have... No, no, no, I'm
sorry, never mind. How much? How often?

Twice, sometimes three times a day.

Look, I can't take any more. Here, just
one more.

Just one.

How'd it happen?

What do you mean?

Larry, I can understand kids who don't
know any better.

Who think they can take just one shot
and then walk away. Or losers who just

can't cope, but you're not a kid or a
loser.

How'd it happen?

It was a woman.

I was hooked on her, she was hooked on
it.

It was either playing her way or hit the
road.

Where is she now?

She's dead.

You've been on it ever since.

That's why no more jobs?

I tried to kick it twice.

But whenever the going got tough, you
know, like this now. Maybe this is your

chance to see it through.

It looks like I don't have any choice.

I'm not talking about right now. I'm
talking about after we get out of here.

Yeah, sure, sure. No, no, don't pay sure
and then figure out how to get to your

connection. All right. All right, you
made your point.

I want a ticket you want me to. We
agree.

Good.

We agree.

You make it around pretty good in that
thing, don't you?

Like I said, I managed.

Bob, how does it feel to be, you know...
To be a cripple?

Harry, you should know the answer to
that one.

Yeah.

Okay, I guess I walked into that.

Come on, can we talk about something
else? I just want to get my mind off how

feel. All right, Harry.

What do we talk about?

Tell me how you catch all those crooks
and murderers, you know? I mean, how you

get around that chair of yours.

Of all kinds of help.

I learn more all the time.

But the spine... That's where you were
shot, wasn't it? It's all here.

The spine really never heals completely,
does it?

You must have lots of pains.

Lots of.

Every now and then.

You got something for it, don't you, to
take? I mean,

when it hurts bad.

Hey, Bob.

Come on, give me some.

Give me some, huh?

Just give me something, please.

All I take is aspirin. Come on, don't be
a liar.

Don't you want to help me?

You'd better walk some more. It'll help
ease the cramps.

Why don't you want to help me? I do. Now
start walking.

Just a little bit. That's all I want.

Just to help ease the pains.

Come on. Then maybe I could kick... Oh,
Harry, you know better than that.

You're outside the authority.

You don't have to go through it
yourself. You don't... Oh, Bob, come on,

Please give me something.

A little brandy might help. Think it can
hold it down?

Yeah, yeah, I think so.

Don't want to take too much of this.

Here you are, Harry.

You lied.

I knew it. You had something. You lied.
I knew it. Now put those back. Yeah.

You liar. Why didn't you tell me you had
these? They're on the aspirin, Harry.

Sure they are. You get out of my way
now. I don't want to hurt you, Bob.

You get out of my way. I got to pop
these. Let me go. Let me go.

No. Let me go.

No. No.

No.

Why'd you do it for? You wasted it.

How could you do it? How could you do
it? Why?

What you're wasting ain't...

Leave me alone.

You've got to help me into my chair.

I can't.

I've got to leave.

I can't help you if you don't help me.

I don't want your help.

Leave me alone.

You'll get me into that chair.

You'll hurt me.

It'll get worse before it gets better.

All right. All right, I'll help.

All right, but promise.

Sick. Oh, I'm sick.

I hurt.

So do I.

Oh, Bob, don't be so pleased.

Don't be so... You don't know how I hurt
inside. I know.

You're going to hurt for a while more,
then it'll go away.

It'll never go away.

Just hang on.

Tell yourself every minute of being sick
is a minute closer to being well.

The room's going around.

Oh, Bob.

Bob, I'm scared. I'm not going to make
it. I'm going to die.

You'll make it, Harry.

Just hang on.

Bob.

Oh, Bob.

You're a good guy, Bob.

You really are.

You'll go through this.

You could have locked yourself in your
room.

You know, I'd be away from it, out of
it. We've known each other too long for

that. Yeah.

Yeah, just... Just tell me you forgive
me.

Just tell me that. Sure.

Say it, please.

I forgive you.

I try to sleep.

I... Oh, that's...

They're the dreams, they're bad.

They're bad, they're real bad.

Look, I'll be right here with you. Now
don't talk.

Are you sure the lines are still down?

Well, have you checked them lately?

Lady, I know there's been a storm. I
just drove through it.

Where you been clear?

You mean trying to clear?

Man, we're really stacked up.

Where? Up the road or down?

Down. When are you going to clear up the
road?

Oh, maybe tomorrow.

Why, you got a problem?

No, my boss is spending the weekend with
a guy named Harry Peters, and they're

trapped up there.

Power lines are down, and they think the
power's out, too. Oh, they'll be okay.

They've probably got a fire going,
toasting themselves.

Now that it stops snowing, they'll
probably be able to come down all by

themselves in the morning.

But my boss is in a wheelchair.

Wheelchair?

He sure won't make it down here by
himself.

Is he sick or something?

No, I guess I'm just worried too much.

Ben. Yeah?

Come here.

Ben runs the store.

Ben, this man's worried about Harry
Peters being stuck up in that cabin.

Harry? I wouldn't worry about him. He
was in a couple of days ago. Laid in

enough supplies for two weeks.

Solid handling.

Well, that's a break.

Yeah, as long as they're all right. You
know what I mean. There's no emergency.

I just don't want to risk sending a crew
up there at night.

I don't want to get hurt for no reason.

Tomorrow, I'll be okay.

See you later.

Well, excuse me.

I'm done.

You work here or you're stuck, too?

Stuck.

I almost didn't drive up here.

I was that close to staying in town. I
didn't know when I was well off.

You been here long?

Got in just before the main road closed
down.

You live around here?

San Francisco.

Well, they should have the road clear
soon.

That won't do me any good. I gotta get
up the mountain and pick up my boss.

Well, at least you're getting paid for
your time.

Relax and enjoy it. Your boss is
probably having a ball.

Take it easy, will you? It's coming!

It's coming! Kill it! Get it away! Kill
it! Why don't you kill it? There's

nothing there. I can see it! Look at it!

Get it away!

It's in your mind! Keep it away from me!

You won't keep it away from me.

There's nothing to keep away, Harry.

It's just in your mind.

That's where you have to fight it.

Is it gone?

Yes, it's gone. You're not lying.

No, I'm not lying.

I'm going to stay right here.

What do you think? Can't make it to the
village. You'll freeze to death. I got

to. That's all. I can't take it anymore.
Harry, you'll kill yourself.

There's stuff waiting for me down here.
I'm going to get it. Look, you're a fool

if you think... You said what you had to
say. Now, fuck off!

I'm not going to let you out of that
door. Now, wait a minute.

You don't know what this is really like.

So I'm going to clue you in.

I'll kill you if I have to. Now, get out
of here.

You understand that?

I'll tell you.

going to kill me, Harry.

You're not going to kill yourself.

Taking a plow up the road in a minute.
You want to follow it?

Yeah.

I'll come up. Is the road down open? No,
we have it partly cleared.

It's a big slide farther down. We got a
crew working on it down below. We can do

some work on above.

I'll also give you a hand getting your
thoughts out. Hey, you got it, Neil.

You got the chains on. Put them on last
night.

Yeah. You got the ivory bricked up and
popping.

Right. Right.

Glad to hear it.

Not really, I do.

I guess folks are soon.

My legs feel like sponge rubber.

A week.

Maybe some coffee.

build a fire first.

The bill's burned, Harry.

If you're planning to shoot anything
else, forget it.

I threw away your equipment last night.

Well, you did say coffee.

going to kick it, Harry?

You said you tried before, but it didn't
work.

Why didn't you see it through?

I never... Never got this far first
time.

The second time?

It was there.

I used it. Why?

Can we have some coffee first?

Why didn't you pick it up again? Another
pretty girl telling you pleasant

dreams?

No.

I almost can't remember. Try to
remember.

What's the point?

So you don't pick it up again.

No, no, no.

I've had enough.

Didn't you say that last time?

Yeah.

Why do you need it, Harry? Because I'm
hooked.

My body needs it. You think I like this?
You apparently like it better than

having to fight your way back.

Back to what?

Building bridges?

I was fired from my last job.

You think I can just go back there and
say, hey, here I am, gentlemen.

Here I am.

Hello. Trouble the last few years? I'm
all right now.

Why don't I go back to work?

I think it's going to be tough, but...
Don't lecture me! Harry, either you kick

it or it's downhill all the way.

You're going to... You're going to have
to face that sooner or later.

When you do, I'll be able to help you.

The road open?

No, they're taking the plow up the
mountain.

I'm going to try to get my boss out.

Hey, I could use some help if you're
tired of sitting around here. Sure, how

is it? About two miles up. A guy named
Harry Peters lives up there.

And your boss will stay with him, huh?
Yeah, he and the chief are old friends.

Chief? Yeah, Chief Hindsight.

What, like fire chief?

No, like chief of detectives.

Oh.

Hey, listen, you know on second thought
maybe I better stick around if they get

the road open I can get back to town.
Okay Well,

that's the last log get to the stack
outside and bring in a few more

That you afraid I'll try for the village
again, I don't think you

have the strength to get very far

If I fall down or pass out, I guess I'll
just have to go out and bring you back.

Why?

Why? Why'd you just answer me that? Why?

You know if you were standing between me
and a fix right now, I'd kill you to

get it.

Yeah, I know that.

Why bother about me? You're worth it.

Huh? I think you're worth it.

Your crabs never go away. Harry, I want
to know who your connection is in the

village.

Oh, please don't play cop, please.

You think I can watch what you're going
through? I can't tell you. You want him

loose? I can't tell you.

Here, here, here.

Don't be long now.

I promise you one thing.

First order of business when I get down
is to find him.

First order of business is to find your
connection.

Any news yet?

They said just a little while on it.
I'll make up my bill, will you? My car's

almost clear. Sure.

Comes like waves, you know.

They won't come forever, Harry. They'll
get weaker all the time.

That's what they ought to be.

Everybody here all right?

You didn't think I was going to let you
hibernate all winter.

The road's clear all the way down to the
village. Good.

We'll get the doctor as soon as we get
there.

I want to know something, Harry.

Your connection.

Is it the village doctor?

All we ever got from Doc was aspirins.

I think he rolled them himself.

Just forget it, Bob. It's all over. Just
drop it. How's your stomach? Tied and

nuts. How's yours?

Tied and anger.

You're not going to drop it, are you?

Nope.

Call the doctor. Harry Peters is sick.

Mickey. Mickey, no. Mickey, please.
Listen.

Come on, Mickey, please.

Come on, please.

Grab him, Mark. Hold him outside.

Harry.

Harry. Harry.

Get the sheriff.

You've all seen enough.

It's gonna be alright.

so so
