Okay, Mr. Stevens, how are we feeling today?

Mike, this is awkward enough without you doing the big doctor voice.

Thank you. There's nothing to worry about. Just routine physical.

This is from a man I've known since I was five years old. This is from a man I

once saw get his head stuck in a banister.

Now, Ed, tell me, has anything been bothering you lately?

No, not really.

Actually, there was one thing.

Tell Dr.

Burton. Well, the other morning I was getting dressed and I reached down to

up a sock and I heard a noise.

A noise? What kind of noise?

A crackle. A crackle?

I'd say you got two weeks to live, maybe three if you cut back on the salt.

Yeah, I know it's probably nothing, but I've never heard a noise like that come

off my body before. It's kind of depressing.

You're just getting older, Ed. It's nothing to worry about. Now hop off the

table. When is getting older nothing to worry about?

Turn your head and cough.

Excuse me?

Turn your head and cough.

I don't think so.

Yeah, okay.

Watching.

Bosco, can we rap?

Sure, Phil. Let's rap.

I need a taste.

What's that mean? You know, action.

Juice. You say something, then I say something, and yet I never move any

to any understanding of what the heck it is you're talking about. Big Rudy was

right, okay? I should not be working on a fixed salary anymore, man. I need a

percentage. Percentage of what?

The lanes, the law practice, shoe rental, concessions, everything, man.

whole condito.

Well, it's just not possible. And also, I'm guessing condito isn't a word in any

actual language, is it?

All right, you know what?

You leave me no alternative. I hereby resign my position as a manager of

Bowl. What?

Goodbye, Ed Stevens.

We part as friends.

So you're not quitting.

Hi, are you Ed Stevens?

Yeah. William Johnson. I'm a chemical engineer at a small industrial ceramics

company in Murfreesboro. Do you like bacon?

I love it. Why?

Is there a place we could speak that's more private?

Step into my office, please. Sorry.

No, Mark, you can't do your winter report on Johnny Tremaine. Why not?

Because it was written for ten -year -olds.

No, it wasn't. It won the Newbery Award.

which is, in fact, an award for children's literature.

All right, everybody, winter projects start tomorrow. I've divided you all

groups of four, and each group will be assigned a truly great work of American

fiction, other than Johnny Tremaine. So check the board on your way out, and

have a good day.

Miss Bessie.

Yes, Warren.

Thank you.

Thank you for putting me with Jessica Martel.

What God am I pleased to deserve such a favor?

Thank you, Miss Bessie.

Are you with Jessica?

I wasn't aware of that. I just sort of assigned those groups at random.

This is no accident of fate, Miss Bessie. You put me with Jessica because

an awesome lady.

Yes, you are. You know, if you think about it...

Unless your lady would resent me for turning my affections to someone younger

and pretty.

Okay, Warren.

That's enough.

Sorry.

These are a sampling of all the commercial brands of bacon available

Please, try one.

Okay.

It's fine. Try another.

Tastes like bacon.

Right.

Now, if you would, try this.

Oh, my God.

This is the most fantastic piece of bacon I've ever tasted in my life. I

invented it. This is fantastic bacon.

I was hoping you could help me get a patent.

What'd you do, invent a new pig?

It's a combination cyclotron and microwave device that's able to vibrate

agitate a molecule inside of a slice of bacon, thus causing the surrounding

molecules to become agitated as well. Although I can't yet explain why, the

result of all this agitation is an increased bacony flavor.

How much does this whole process cost?

At present, $2 ,300 a slice.

Wow. That's some pricey breakfast meat.

Uh, yes, but later today, I'm conducting a new test that I believe might lead

the way to a more commercially viable device.

All right, stop with the bowling and the lawyering. We've come to take you to

lunch.

William Johnson, meet Molly Hudson and Carol Bessie.

Hi. Hello. I'm Carol.

Um, if we're interrupting anything, we could just meet you over at the pie

No, it's okay. Look, Mr. Johnson, the first thing I have to do is run a search

to see if anything similar has been patented, but I'll call you with the

results. Okay, thank you. You're welcome. Very much. Uh, perhaps before

and... Like to try some bacon?

Yes, of course.

Holy crap.

Hey, you know what, Eddie?

That new client of yours? He's kind of cute.

Really? I thought he was kind of dull.

No. No, he's cute in a sort of absent -minded professor way.

Absent -minded professor, man. I love that.

Did that help with the flubber?

Oh, look who it is. Molly's favorite calculus teacher, Jeff Alexander.

You!

What are you doing? I'm just waiting. Stop.

Just let him get his coffee and leave.

This is ridiculous. You like him, right? Right. Well, then go over there and

talk to him.

Better yet, ask him out. No. Ask him out. No.

No, I stopped asking guys out a long time ago. Why?

Oh, one simple reason.

They say no.

Oh, Molly.

Molly, it's ridiculous.

Hear that?

Hear what?

Crackle.

I crackled. Listen.

I crackled. I never used to crackle. All of a sudden, I crackled.

I crackled. I can't get an old.

Jessica Martel, prepare to be impressed.

111, a massive man leads lives of quiet desperation.

That'll do.

I got a delivery for Mr. Stanley Glick. I'm sorry, there's no one here. I'm

Stanley Glick. Where do I find? Right here.

Thank you, good sir.

Stanley Glick?

Yes, I use that name on my mail orders, keeping up all the junk mail and

telemarketing lists.

So that's why people keep calling and asking for Stanley Glick. Yeah, see, it

works like a charm.

What did you get?

Is it one of those Girls Gone Wild videos?

I went wild once on a trip to Scranton, Pennsylvania, but no one was there to

capture it on videotape.

Shirley, I hold in my hand the holy grail of business success.

Here on these tapes is everything you need to know about how to make friends,

influence people, and in my case, get a nice fat raise.

Bill, I thought you quit.

I don't recall anything of the sort.

Surely.

Hello, I'd like the number to the U .S. Patent Office, please.

Oh, excuse me, I have another call.

Hello? Hey, Ed, it's Mike.

Hey, Mike, what's up?

Oh, hey, you know that guy you were talking about at lunch, Willie Johnson?

Yeah. Well, he's in the hospital. They just called Dr. Jerome for his records.

Why? What happened?

Well, he's unconscious.

There was some kind of accident at the lab.

Okay, look, I'm on my way over.

How you doing there, Mr. Johnson? Can you hear me?

Mr. Johnson? There you go. That's it, Mr. Johnson.

Ah.

Where am I?

You're in the hospital.

What happened?

Well, a custodian found you in the floor of your lab. There seems to have been

some kind of explosion.

Explosion?

Hey. Hey, Mike.

Hey, Mr. Johnson.

You okay?

I don't know. I might... You've got some minor cuts and bruises, and we'll need

to take some more tests, but as far as we can see, you're just fine.

I remember it.

You're in a big bang. That's the last thing I remember.

Yeah, well, you're a very lucky man, Mr. Johnson. According to paramedics, when

your machine exploded, it managed to lodge several big pieces of metal in the

wall just above your head.

They've been a few inches lower.

I thought I would have been killed.

Well, I guess the first thing we should do is read it.

Mark, are you telling me you've never read Walden?

No. Me neither.

What? Have you?

I've done more than read it.

I've devoured it, as one devours a rare steak.

I've sunk my teeth into it and let the blood drip down my chin.

The mass of men lead lives of quiet desperation, what is called resignation.

is confirmed desperation.

Oh, my God.

You'll find that on page 111, if I'm not mistaken.

Wow, it's right here.

Yeah. You must, like, have some kind of photographic memory or something.

No, no, no, Donna. You don't memorize great literature with your head.

You simply give it a good home in your heart.

Glad to see you.

Excuse me, Ed.

Yeah, Phil.

Ed, I just wanted to let you know, Ed, that Lane 10 is in need of repairs.

You see, Ed, some of the customers have brought it to my attention that the lane

maybe isn't as waxed as it ought to be. Phil?

Yes, Ed?

What you doing?

Nothing, Ed. I just think it's important, Ed, to let the person with

are speaking know that you're really listening to him.

Ed?

This is a whole new brand of weirdness.

Excuse me.

Stuckyball, this is Ed Steven.

What?

All right, you know what? Hang on, I'll be right down.

Phil, call Mike Burton. Tell him to meet me at the corner of Main and Walnut.

Tell him it's an emergency.

Ed? Yeah? You got it, Ed.

Mr. Johnson.

Okay. Hey, Eddie, how you doing? You know this guy?

Yeah, I'm his lawyer. Well, he's going to need one. I found him scaling the

building. Why are you scaling the building?

Because I've never done it before.

Mr. Johnson, are you okay? Are you feeling all right? I feel great. I've

felt better.

Yeah, I made a decision. I'm done wasting my life. I'm living.

How'd you get up there?

Oh, I just jumped up and grabbed the flagpole and pulled myself up.

You grabbed that flagpole? Yeah, that one there. That flagpole there?

That's the one. Hey, Mr. Johnson.

How'd you get out of the hospital?

Oh, uh, I walked out. All right. You're under arrest for disturbing the peace

and reckless endangerment. I'm under arrest. Let's go. Hey, listen, I'll meet

you downtown. Don't worry about this. I'll take care of it. No, I'm not

It never felt better. For a couple minutes there, I was the human fly.

How you doing? I'm getting arrested.

Mike, is he okay?

He seems like a totally different guy.

Yeah, I know. Physically, he's fine.

I think he suffered from some kind of post -traumatic stress disorder.

Really?

It's pretty common among people who've had near -death experiences.

We should get him to a psychiatrist.

Yeah.

What?

What are you looking at?

Hey,

what are you doing?

He's mid -40s. I'm 32.

How come he can grab the flagpole and I can't?

You're one embarrassing human being.

Could you guys read any of this last night?

I read a little.

It was kind of interesting.

I thought it was incredible.

I am so not into this.

I mean, all this Thoreau guy does is, like, talk about stuff.

I mean, at least Johnny Tremaine messed up his hand.

Yeah, but I gotta say, I actually read the first three chapters last night. I

mean, I reread the first three chapters last night, and whoa.

Whoa?

I mean, this guy just picked up and moved into the woods.

Just one day, I'm going to the woods.

And he spent, like, two years in there or something.

Well, that's great, Cheswick, but I need at least a C - on this project to pass

English, so... Right, but forget about grades for a second. I mean, this book

is, like, giving you the answer to life and stuff.

He's telling us that the key is to simplify life.

You know?

Don't go work in some crummy job so you can buy stuff.

You just have to keep working more and more so you can buy more stuff. Just

up the stuff.

No more stuff.

You just have to appreciate the simple things, like nature.

I love what he writes in the inscription. He says, I do not propose

ode to dejection, but to brag as lustily as Chanticleer in the morning, standing

on his roost, if only to wake the neighbors up.

Exactly. That's it.

He's got the answer, and he's trying to tell everybody, get out of the rat race.

Simplify.

This is just a big wake -up call.

And whatever.

I only read the first three chapters, so the rest might suck.

Your Honor.

Mr. Johnson here is a law -abiding citizen. In all his 47 years as a

Stockieville, he has never once gotten in any kind of trouble. Your Honor, if I

might. The United States of America is a country forged in the fires of

revolution.

Our very founding fathers gave their lives for the freedom that we enjoy

But freedom comes with responsibility.

On top of the shoulders of responsibility sits...

The dour face of justice.

Mr. Johnson.

Yes, Your Honor, justice is blind.

But I beseech you, do not confuse her blindness for indiscretion. Hey, Mr.

Johnson.

Excuse me a moment.

What are you doing?

Well, I've never been in trial before. I just want to make the most of it.

Your Honor, Mr. Johnson has recently had a near -death experience. He's not been

thinking clearly.

So I see.

All right, I'll dismiss the charges.

But, Mr. Johnson, I don't want to see you here again.

Thank you, Your Honor.

Well, so much for that.

Well done, Ed.

Mr. Johnson, I would like you to go see Dr. Louise Meyer. She's a psychiatrist.

I think she could help you.

Me? You're the one that needs a psychiatrist.

How's that? Oh, yes, you. All of you. The judge, the bailiff, that lady, that

guy over there, everybody outside.

You're all wasting your lives doing nothing while I'm living.

That may be, but I'm worried about... No, no, no, Ed, don't worry. I want you

enjoy yourself.

I want you to have some fun.

Yeah, why don't you let me buy you a drink at the Smiling Goat place? You

that's really not necessary. I insist.

And, uh, Ed, bring the girls.

Olé, olé, olé! Here we go, everybody!

Palo Senor Willie!

Woo -hoo!

Boy, oh boy, do I hate dancing.

Why sit when you can stunga?

Look at this guy.

He's got a whole new philosophy for his life, but what's the point?

Come on now, bounce like you mean it.

And he's ruining the elaborate illusion I've created for Nancy on the most

exciting human being on the planet.

It doesn't matter how many billions you scale.

How many times you conquer doesn't change one essential fact. Life is

One depressing date.

Yeah.

Ed, you crackled. You couldn't reach your flagpole. Big deal.

Yeah, big deal.

You know, you don't have to take it lying down. There's things you can do.

I, for one, am a firm believer in the use it or lose it philosophy.

Use it or lose it.

Yeah, you're going to age. That's a good one. But the more active you are, the

more you can delay it.

And let's face it, your lifestyle's changed. You're not as active as you

when you were 18.

I guess I'm not.

Come on, honey, let's dance.

Okay, honey.

Where did you find him? He is great.

Not great. He's suffering from post -traumatic stress disorder.

Oh, somebody's jealous.

I'm not jealous.

Listen, why just sit there when you can rumba?

Oh, yeah. Come on, old man.

Come on, old man.

I am a strong and powerful man.

I am a king surveying his kingdom.

I am a victorious general sucking on the spoils of war.

Shoot me what's going on here.

I am the sun and the moon and the planets.

Still got some self -imprisonment tapes. He thinks they'll help him get away.

It's all right.

Because I am going to succeed like a champ!

Can I get a pair of nine and a halves?

Yeah, sure.

Okay, then.

All right, I'm here. What is it?

What's that? That's my journal.

You brought me down here to look at your diary? My journal.

Ed Lewis and Clark had a journal. You, my friend, have a diary.

Mike, see, I've been overthinking this whole thing, you know? It is way too

early to think about getting old.

Well, good. That's what I've been trying to tell you. Yeah, because I'm going

through my journal, right, from when I'm 18. I found this same week, but back

then. You know what?

I can still do all this stuff.

Oh, no, you can't. That's not the point I was trying to make. Yes, I can. And

furthermore, I'm going to prove it. All this stuff that I did that week when I

was 18, I'm going to do this week. Use it or lose it, right?

You know, now that I'm your doctor, it's my obligation to tell you that,

medically speaking, you have a brain the size of a marble.

Oh, yeah, and it's going to be great.

Like, all of a sudden, just like that, I'm 18 again.

Was that hello?

I just thought I'd spice it up a little bit. I mean, why just say hello when you

can say hello?

Miles, you been hitting the rum cake again?

I have got some good news. What's that?

Guess who asked me out to dinner tonight?

Oh, Jeff Alexander. I knew it. No, Willie Johnson.

Really? Yeah, he called me up last night and asked me out to dinner just like

that. So just the two of you? Yeah, just me and him as in a date.

I have a date with Willie Johnson.

That's great. It's great, Miles. Really, that's fantastic.

Wow. I mean, what a guy, right?

Yeah, yeah, he's smart, funny, a great dancer. Oh, that he can.

Hey, Miss Bessie. Hi, Warren. I've been looking all over for you.

I've got to show you something.

What's that?

Uh,

okay, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait.

Okay, listen to this. I went to the woods because I wished to live

to front only the essential facts of life, and see if I could not learn what

had to teach, and not, when I came to die, discover that I had not lived.

Got cool and white.

Yeah, Henry David Thoreau was definitely cool.

I'd say he was bitchin'. Yeah, he tells you how to make genuine hoe cakes from

Indian meal and salt.

Goodbye, Warren.

Okay, I'm gonna go.

Why on earth is it so important to you to eat two pies?

Ed found his journal from when he was 18. He's trying to prove that he can

do all the things now that he did back in that same week in 1987.

Oh, so on this?

Glorious day he ate two pies. That's right, my friend. On this day, I became

member of the two -pie club.

Where am I?

Let's see.

Let's see. Where am I? Let's see.

Let's see.

Where am I? You're right there, Ed.

There I am. You know you're right there?

That's me there. Now let's find you, Mike. Let's see.

You both know I'm not up there, Ed. Why is that, Mike?

I need two pies. I'm sorry. I can't hear you.

Couldn't eat two pies. Couldn't eat.

Two pies.

That guy could eat two pies.

Really? Oh, yeah. I mean, you know what it's all about, don't you? Sunrises.

Sunrises. Oh, yes. Every time the big yellow ball comes up and the planetary

light switches on, it's an opportunity.

An opportunity to do what?

To do what?

Everything. To do everything. It's all out there.

Wow, you're making me feel guilty for hitting my snooze button over and over

every morning.

Are you ready to order?

Oh, sure. Hey, you know what? Let's hear some specials. Do you have any

specials? Yes, we have several main course specials this evening. We have a

-fried catfish in garlic butter, a homemade risotto bolognese with capers

olives, 18 -ounce prime rib of beef, which is served with new potatoes and a

medley of grilled vegetables. We also have fresh Alaskan king crab and an

hair pasta with rock shrimp in a pesto sauce.

Great.

I'm sorry, which did you like?

Bring them all.

Why try one thing when you can have everything?

See, are you up for that?

Sure, bring it all.

All right.

Here you go.

You don't want to go home?

Stay over at our place. I'm all right.

Oh, my God.

Hello?

Phil, what's with the getup?

It's called role modeling.

There's no faster way to get to the top than by dressing like the boss.

I haven't got his ridiculous haircut.

Okay.

I give up.

Uncle, okay? You can have 5 % of the shoe return.

You're tickling my chain.

I'm not tickling anything. Just tell me you'll go back to being normal, or

whatever it was you were before.

Oh, Ed, it is such a rarity that in this doggy -dog world of ours, there is

actually a man who is willing to share the wealth.

It's, um, dog eat dog world, actually.

Not doggy dog.

No, it's doggy dog world. You know, like we're all dogs.

I had a really great time tonight.

Yeah, me too.

Hey, Molly.

I know everyone thinks I've gone crazy, but I haven't.

I mean, everybody out there wants to sip at life. I want to gulp it and guzzle

it.

I got a wake -up call.

What would be crazy is to not answer it, you know?

I don't think you're crazy.

Can I have your question?

Sure.

Why me?

Why not Carol?

Because you're more fearless.

Good night.

Good night.

Ed.

What?

What's the matter with you?

Too much pie?

No way to live?

Simplify, simplify.

Instead of three meals a day, if it be necessary, eat but one.

Instead of a hundred dishes, five.

And reduce other things in proportion.

Walden. And there comes a time in every man's life where he's got to make some

decisions.

Decisions about what?

Decisions about how he's going to live his life, about how he's going to

his affairs.

I'm going to live my life by not eating any more pie.

I'm thinking of spending some time in the woods.

Like Thoreau?

Yeah, that's right.

He went into the woods to live deliberately. I want to start living

deliberately. Okay.

How do you propose to do that?

I'm going to go to the top of Mount Precipice and spend a weekend in the

See what it's like to simplify my life.

Oh, Mount Precipice, huh?

I forgot about that.

Precipice. You know, when I was in high school, I used to get up before dawn and

run to the top of Mount Precipice with a full backpack on my back.

I used to be able to do it in one hour, eight minutes, 42 seconds. That's not a

bad time, huh?

Time.

Time is but the stream I go a -fishing in.

I'd run up there, you know, I'd sit back on Conrad Rock, look out, watch the

sunrise, and do exactly what you're doing now, trying to make decisions on

to live my life.

Now I wonder why I bother.

Okay, you're bringing me down.

Sorry, Warren. What can I do for you?

Well, Mount Precipice is a public park, right? And I closed it after sundown, so

I was just wondering if you knew if I could get into any, like, legal trouble,

if I stay there overnight, or would they be cool?

Well, Warren, as your lawyer, I can't encourage you to break the law, but

between you and me, if you get caught, you only get a slap on the wrist.

Ed. Shirley.

There is a gentleman bowling naked on Line 6.

I don't see that every day.

Eddie! Have a ball naked?

Can't say I have.

Oh, why in the world not?

All right!

Please, call me Willie.

Okay. Willie, let me cut through the legalese as best I can here. You can't

naked. Why not?

I brought you something.

Wrote it in three days.

Printed it up on the computer there and made the cover myself.

Do everything.

Willie Johnson's Guide to Life.

Well, I figured it was time to spread the word.

This book embodies my basic two -word philosophy on life. Do everything.

Mr. Johnson, Willie, do you understand that if you get arrested again for

disturbing the peace, you could very well end up going to jail?

Disturbing the peace?

What's wrong with disturbing the peace? The peace needs to be disturbed.

Well, we all get one dance and then we're asked to leave the party. Why

the ultimate goal be to not make waves? I want to make waves, Ed. I want to make

big, giant, sloppy splashes.

I want to stand up and tell the world that while he was here, Willie Johnson

everything.

I read some more water last night.

It really is pretty cool.

It's great to hear you say that because I got something I want to tell you.

What?

I'm going to take to the woods and I want you to come with me.

What do you mean?

I mean a life of simplicity.

We must take to the woods, Jessica, and live deliberately.

Okay. But like when you keep saying take to the woods, what do you mean exactly?

Check it out.

Let's go to the top of Mount Precipice, spend the weekend there.

And just you and me, just away from the industrial world with all its machines

and madness.

And we'll live simply in nature.

I urge you, Jessica, we've got to do this. Let's take to the woods.

Gee, Warren, that sounds pretty cool, but I don't think my parents would go

that.

Well, why don't you tell them that it's her report on Walden?

Okay, well, let me think about it.

Okay.

Okay. Do you really think that Jessica Martel is what Henry David had in mind

when he said simplify?

Ed?

Ed?

Ed?

Are you okay? What happened?

Hey. Hi.

Yeah.

Yeah, I kind of passed out, I guess. Okay, oh, my God. Let's call Mike. We'll

just call him right now. All right, I'm okay. I'm okay.

I'm fine.

What are you doing?

I was trying to pull 50 games.

That's fine.

What did you say?

I... I tried to... pull 50 games without sleeping.

Why?

See,

you remember the charity bowl -a -thon our senior year? You were there, right?

Yeah, the one for the Norwegian kid who hurt himself in the fishing accident,

right? Yeah. Well, I thought I'd... I'm

starting to worry about you.

I'm fine.

You know, most people go through a midlife crisis.

You're going through a...

A one -third life crisis.

I'm not 18 anymore.

Hey, Teach.

I got you one of each.

Thanks. What are you doing here?

Well, I just wanted to come by and let you know what an unbelievably great time

I had the other night. No, me too.

Best day I have had in... ever.

Actually. Oh, yeah.

I also wanted to let you know that I was leaving town.

What? Well, there's just so much for me to do out there, and I wasted a lot of

time, so now I just got to go and start doing and seeing.

Wow, I kind of thought when I saw you that you were going to ask me out again.

Oh, I'd like to ask you out again.

I'll be back, you know, at some point.

In the meantime...

I got to get out there and start doing everything.

Right. Well, under that general umbrella of doing everything is dropping me a

postcard every once in a while. No, you can count on that.

I don't suppose kissing you goodbye in front of all these students is probably

a... Probably not. Of course not.

Well, then, until next time.

Bye. Bye. Billy Johnson?

That's me. You're under arrest.

for public display of nudity, disorderly conduct, and disturbing the peace.

You got me again. Uh, wait a second.

No, no, no. It's okay.

Turns out disturbing the peace is what I do best. Gentlemen?

I'll call Ann for you.

All righty.

Which way, fellas?

Mr.

Stevens, do you have anything to say on behalf of your client before I render my

decision? Yes, I do.

Your Honor, life doesn't last forever.

We get old, we die. So why bother trying to figure out how to live? Why not just

give up?

But Willie Johnson here came face to face with death.

When he got his life back after being hanged by a threat, he decided giving up

was for the birds. He decided he was going to begin by living deliberately.

Now, for him, this meant maximizing every moment of his life by doing

everything. Doing everything. Now, is his system right? Is it wrong? I don't

know. Does his system need a little refinement so we all don't end up

him bowl naked?

Probably. But we shouldn't punish him while he works out the kinks.

We should throw him a parade for having decided how to live.

Your Honor, Willie Johnson is planning to leave Stuckyville tomorrow.

Let him go.

He hasn't really hurt anyone.

Thank you.

Mr. Johnson, I sympathize with your near -death experience.

I once had a little incident with my pool heater.

Still, I can't let these incidents go completely unpunished.

I find you guilty of disturbing the peace.

And I think one night in jail just might do you some good. Your Honor, please.

No, no. Ed, this is okay. I've never spent a night in jail. Sounds like it

be really exciting.

Willie, you're incredible.

Thanks for everything.

Good luck.

Enjoy your shoes, sir.

That's another 3 .75 cents for one Mr. Phillips.

Hey,

10 bucks, Mac. You're not in the mood.

Oh, come on. This is a good one. I've been thinking about this one. It's

conceptual. It's conceptual? Yeah. All right, what is it?

10 bucks.

You give me 10 bucks.

Ten bucks or if you give me 20 bucks?

Give.

You know, I barely knew him, and yet somehow I'm already missing him.

Aw. Oh, Molls. He'll probably be back soon. I mean, it can't take that long to

do everything, can it?

Yeah. Hey, Molly, Molly, Molly. Look over there.

Isn't that the guy you had a crush on? How did you know about that? I picked

things up, sister.

Molls. Miles, you've got to go over there and ask him out right now. Come

Sure. Why not?

Hi, Jeff.

Hi, Molly. How you been?

I'm good.

I'm a little bit behind on my book club readings, but I'll tell the others.

Listen, I was wondering if you want to have a drink sometime or grab some

dinner? Sure, that'd be great.

Great.

Okay,

here.

Here's my number.

Call me, whenever.

I'll do that.

Great.

I've not been to the sunset before. I'm sure there's a sunset out there

somewhere, sir.

Have fun doing everything.

We'll see you, Miss Molly.

Mr. Johnson.

Ed, my good man.

Warren.

Hey, what was your time? Did you make it?

No.

37 minutes too slow.

That sucks.

I didn't make it.

It's okay.

How you doing?

I went to the woods to live deliberately.

And?

I learned this, at least, by my experiment.

And if one advances confidently in the direction of his dreams and endeavors to

live the life which he has imagined, he will meet with a success unexpected in

common hours.

If you build castles in the air, your work need not be lost.

That is where they should be.

Not where the foundation's under them.

And you know that, too. I took high school English.

You want a lifesaver?

Warren, breakfast is ready.

All right.

Trust me, Ed.

Simplify.

Simplify.

Hey, you want to join us for breakfast?

No. No thanks.

All right.
