Original subtitles

I met you and looked into your eyes I felt I knew you

but didn't know why I sensed a certain kind

How long had it been?

Two weeks?

Maybe longer.

It didn't matter.

All I knew was Susan had made me happier than I'd ever been.

And now she was dying.

I could remember every minute with her, every second.

Most of all, I remembered the first time I saw her.

That day when I broke up with Lila.

You too.

You know, we're a lot alike.

Two peas in a pod.

You think so?

Sure.

We both like good steak, fast cars, and we both love fucking.

And fucking around.

What's that supposed to mean?

Nothing. Just forget it.

I won't just forget it. What are you talking about, fucking around?

Are you accusing me? I said just forget it, okay?

I won't forget it. Where the hell do you get off accusing me? I don't fuck

around and you know it.

Lila, it doesn't matter.

When we started out, we agreed no strings.

So let's just forget the whole thing.

I won't forget shit. Where the hell do you get off hinting that I'm some sort

a tramp that just runs around?

Look, if you want to know the truth, I called your place last night. Some guy

answered. You got the wrong number, asshole.

Three times. Oh.

Are you calling me a liar now?

Lila, just go home, will you?

I'll go when I want to go.

You'll go now, goddammit. Now get the hell out of here.

You macho asshole. You think you can just fuck anybody you want. But let me

spend a little bit of time with an old friend and... This isn't the first time

and you know it.

But it doesn't matter, all right?

We agreed that we could go out with anybody that we wanted to.

What's your fucking problem? You!

You're my fucking problem. You're lying. Your excuses, your lame -ass stories.

I'm sick and tired of it. I don't want to put up with it anymore.

Do you understand that?

Oh, I understand perfectly.

You don't want to fuck me anymore.

Don't twist my words around, Lila.

I just said I didn't want any more of your goddamn lying.

Oh, well, don't worry. You don't have to fuck me because you can just go fuck

yourself.

That's all, folks.

Very funny.

How's the bod, Hank?

It's about as shitty as your love life, pal.

You have another fight?

Yeah.

The last one.

I'm getting pretty tired of it.

Lila's out of her fucking head.

You know, you'll have an accident like me.

Then you won't have to have any sex.

No more problems.

Hi, Hank.

Hi, Susan.

Who's that?

That is Susan Banks.

Just moved in here.

Pretty nice, huh?

Yeah, you could say that.

Say, Hank, you don't happen to know where she's going, do you?

What's it worth to you?

Oh, come on.

How about a beer?

How about lunch?

All right, you got it.

Where's she going?

Rumor has it that she jogs every day about this time of...

Above the Golden Gate Bridge and Port Baker Road up there.

Want some company?

Sir, you're talking about parking.

Uh -huh.

I see this.

I know.

Hermione, will you stop here for a minute?

No, go ahead.

Do you jog up here often?

Uh, actually, no.

Do you jog often?

Uh, not until lately.

How lately?

This morning.

What do you do?

Oh, about a mile and a half a day.

No, no, I mean work.

Say, Oatman, sporting goods.

You? I design things.

I have books, posters, magazines.

Oh, nice.

Say, Oatman, how about breakfast or lunch?

A nice juicy steak?

Aw, that's really sweet of you, but I'm a vegetarian.

Okay, whatever.

How about it?

Yeah, we could have a drink up at my place.

Hey, sounds great.

Drink, your place?

Okay, great.

Race to the top of the hill.

You know, when you said a drink, I didn't figure on herb tea.

Just try it. I think you'll like it.

Good.

Oh, this one isn't looking too good.

Yeah, I know. Poor thing.

I don't know what's wrong with it.

Did you ever live in Cincinnati?

No. Why?

I don't know. You just seem...

So familiar, you know, like I've met you before.

I mean, even your place.

I know I've never been here before, but... It's kind of like deja vu, you

Like, you feel like you've been here before.

Yeah, right.

It's weird.

Nice.

But weird.

I mean, even you.

I mean, I hardly even know you.

But I, uh... I don't know, I just feel comfortable around you.

Oh boy, does that sound like a corny come on?

I don't know.

Sometimes corny can be nice.

Huh.

Susan.

I know.

I think I'm falling.

No, no.

Don't say that.

Not yet.

Okay. I won't say it. I'll show it.

Will you call me?

Sure.

I almost forgot my keys.

Jesus Christ.

What did you do, switch plants?

How could I have? I was with you, remember?

Susan was beautiful, tender, sexy, intelligent, and a great lover.

But after four months of Lila, I didn't want to settle down again.

Susan was the right woman at the wrong time.

So I stayed away from her the rest of the weekend, and I didn't call her all

week.

That was hard to do, and I felt shitty doing it.

But the thing with the plant really freaked me out.

Working class hero.

How you doing, Hank?

All right.

Working hard?

Yeah. How's the bod?

Fucking neck's worse than ever, man. I can't move it at all.

Want a beer?

Sure.

Hold on that rope.

That's how I keep them cold.

There you go, buddy.

All right, here's to you.

You know something, pal?

Yeah, what?

You're an asshole.

You're a real asshole.

What do you mean?

Shit you've been avoiding, Susan.

Look, you don't know what I've been going through, all right? Oh, fuck that.

Man, she's been walking around here like a wounded puppy.

Yeah, well, I've been busy, you know.

Who are you talking to? I live here.

I'm your friend. I'm your neighbor.

And she's the best thing that ever came into your life.

Maybe.

Yeah, but you know, we're so different.

I like a beer and basketball.

She likes to meditate.

I like a nice juicy steak. She's a fucking vegetarian.

So what?

Opposites attract.

And you owe me lunch, schmucko.

Hi.

Well, hi, stranger.

Hey, listen, Susan.

Stop my not calling you. I'm really sorry.

Yeah.

I know you've been avoiding me.

I talked to Hank, too.

Yeah, well, it's just that I... I didn't know if I was really ready to get...

Involved? Yeah.

Yeah, I understand.

Hey. Uh -huh?

How about lunch? My treat.

No strings attached.

What?

Yogurt and bean sprouts?

No, a nice, big, juicy steak, if that's what you want.

Sounds good.

Hey, by the way, how's that plant?

Oh, God, it's so healthy it almost sings.

You know, I think it likes you.

I ought to give it to you.

That's really pretty weird, that plant being healthy so fast like that.

That's more than weird. That's fucking strange.

Yeah, don't worry about it.

What happens, happens.

You ever have any cramps?

Huh? Yeah.

You've had cramps? Yeah.

But after they're all taken apart, just the legs.

Let's take a look at Alcatraz.

Can you see anything? I don't know. What's wrong with it? Not really. Okay,

a look.

That was pretty good.

Want to buy a newspaper?

Read Chinese?

It's been a long time.

I'm really sorry about not calling you.

I was just fooling myself into thinking I was busy.

Actually I was afraid of a commitment.

I know.

This is going to sound funny.

And every time I make that deal, I get this really kind of funny feeling.

Yeah.

It's kind of nice, though. I really like it.

It's different.

It's beautiful.

It feels so good.

Oh, God, be careful.

Don't stop, though. Do it real easy. It's amazing.

Every single fucking bone in my body hurts.

And I'm still horny.

Oh, don't stop.

Oh, God, I wish I could fuck you.

Easy.

Oh, I think if I come, my head's going to fall off.

Really. Really.

Don't move my body. Just my dick.

Yes.

Yes, more.

Oh. Oh.

What's wrong?

My neck doesn't hurt anymore.

Jesus.

Look at this.

I just felt a warm feeling and all of a sudden the pain went

away.

Sure is.

Come on in. Oh,

God.

Hey, numbnuts.

What the hell are you doing?

What, do you want to be put in traction?

Where the hell's your neck raise?

You know me, buddy. Look.

I don't know what happened, but last night I had this warm feeling come up my

shoulders and in my neck.

Well, there's no pain.

Warm feeling?

Yeah.

I don't know.

It went all over my neck, and I don't even need a brace anymore.

Don't tell my insurance man, okay?

No, no, of course not.

Hey,

listen, Hank.

About what time did this happen, this warm feeling?

About midnight.

Yeah, midnight.

This

is

fucking weird.

I mean, first this plant.

Then Hank's neck.

What the hell is happening?

Dad, why don't you just calm down? Oh, come on. Give me a break. I mean, look

this thing.

Listen.

Last night when we were making love, I happened to think about Hank just for a

second. Because if it wasn't for him, I probably would have stayed away from

you.

So?

So, just at that time, I happened to look at the clock also.

It was 12 o 'clock.

The same goddamn time that Hank's neck suddenly got better.

You know, I think I can help you with this.

Here.

I want you to shuffle the cards and cut three times to the left with your left

hand. Oh, come on. Fortune telling?

No, it's the tarot.

You just ask your... Think of it as just asking your subconscious mind.

Your inner mind already holds the answers.

The tarot just helps bring it out.

Okay.

The chariot.

A man of action, impulsive, a man who travels.

Yeah, I'm on the road a lot.

Okay.

Queen of Cups, the dark -haired woman, contemplative, passive, an artist.

That's the Wheel of Fortune.

It's karmic ties, destiny.

Chance meetings, it means something more.

Oh, that one's easily recognized.

The two of cups.

It means healing power.

Tremendous force for good. For helping others.

Uh -huh. So fate threw us together so we could fucking heal people, is that it?

Remember what you said the first time?

You know, like we'd met before?

Bullshit. Oh, you cynical son of a bitch. I love you.

Okay, Swami.

So what else do the cards say?

Ted, go home.

What? I just got here.

No, I'm serious. I don't know why.

I just, I really would like for you to go home now. What the fuck? What's the

matter? Okay, okay.

Oh, boy.

That was quick.

What happened?

I don't know.

She just started looking at some tarot cards and kicked me out.

You okay?

Yeah, sure, I'm fine.

Isn't that your phone ringing?

Yeah, sure is. Thanks.

Yeah, Tom Palmer. That's my brother. Why?

What?

Oh, God, no.

Yeah, I'm on my way.

I gotta go to the hospital.

Would you come with me?

You're welcome.

What's wrong?

My kid brother Tommy has been shot.

Oh, my God.

Oh,

he must be the patient's brother.

Yeah.

Give it to me straight, huh?

Well, he took two bullets in the chest. We repaired the lung damage.

It's the one in the heart that's giving us a little trouble right now.

He was at a liquor store and tried to disarm the robber, and the robber shot

a couple times.

He's a brave man, Mr. Paul.

Can I see him? Yeah. Go ahead, but be quiet.

Hey, guy.

What's the big idea, playing hero?

Should've seen me.

Just like you, Teddy.

I'm sorry, but I believe you're gonna have to leave now.

Take it easy, pal.

It's all my fault.

He always looked up to me.

Wanted to be a big hero like his brother.

Big fucking macho hero.

Little twerp.

Oh, God damn it.

It's okay, baby.

You can cry if you need to.

I'm here and I love you so much.

I want you to come with me.

Don't worry, baby.

Everything's gonna be alright.

Yeah.

Just relax.

Okay.

Oh, don't worry, baby.

Tommy's going to be just fine.

Oh, I love you so much.

I love you, too.

It was so good.

Time of death, 9 .46.

Yes, Doctor, 9 .46.

What the hell?

I love you too.

Oh, God.

Thank you.

Thank you.

Tommy's heart stopped.

He was dead.

But he's going to be all right now.

He's going to be all right.

Susan, I love you.

It's the only explanation.

It's more than a coincidence.

So you think that when Susan and I make love, that we generate some sort of

healing power?

It seems so. It's like magnetic poles, opposites attracting each other,

some kind of psychic energy.

Yeah, the yin and yang, positive and negative.

Many people seem to have the power to heal, but when you two have sex...

It seems to be magnified ten to a hundred times.

I'd like to do some experiments with you. Are you all willing?

Yeah. What do we have to do?

Well, first of all, let's not tell anybody about this. There's enough

the hospital that think I'm crazy.

And let's meet there tomorrow at 9 a .m.

Okay. Fine.

Great. All right. I'll see you then. Okay. Thanks, Ben. Thank you.

Good day.

Speak of the devil.

How you been, pretty one?

I got your clothes from Japan.

Thanks, but no.

I thought you had something wrong with your neck.

Well, I did have something wrong with my neck, but Ted and Susan took care of

it. See, when they get together, they generally... Susan?

Who's that?

New girlfriend?

Yeah, she lives right over there.

Hank's a hunk, but he's lousy in introductions.

I'm Mei Ling.

Tyler Reynolds.

Ted around?

No, he's in Los Angeles for a few days.

Listen, the two of you aren't going out anymore, are you?

No.

You want to fool around?

That would be fun.

Yes. Yes, it could.

What do we have here?

Well, beauty, isn't she?

Yes, she certainly is. How did she get so lucky?

I don't know. I think it's skill, not luck.

I think it's luck.

I've now been here 32 seconds, and I don't see anybody with their clothes

I want to do something about that, won't we?

I want to see these gorgeous chickens.

Oh, nice.

Aren't they?

Mm -hmm.

Do you like them soft? Oh, yeah.

Fuck them.

I know.

Oh. I know.

Oh. They feel good?

Yes. Oh.

She's making me nipple fire.

God,

she's hot.

Great. She's not the only one who does.

This is all great, but don't put some cock out there.

Well, who has a cock?

Do you have a cock?

Do you?

What?

What does it look like?

Let me find out.

What?

Good on time.

Good. That's good.

You see how she does that?

See how she does that?

See how she walks her tongue over my... Now you try.

Now you try.

What would you like to see now?

I want the two of you to put on a show for me, okay?

Touch each other. Kiss each other. I like that.

What do you think? Do you think he deserves it? Sure, I know.

to take me back, huh?

So we're at nine.

I love your big hard cock in my pussy. That's it. Fuck me hard.

Oh, shove it in.

I can't wait for you to come home.

Well, I'll fix that.

I wrapped the L .A. sale this afternoon.

Just one more meeting and I'll be back.

Should be about 6 .30. Pick me up?

Oh, of course I will.

I can't wait to play doctor again.

Yeah, I know what you mean.

I'm getting a real bang out of healing people.

Hey, look, just take cold showers and run around the block a few times till I

get back, okay?

Doctor's orders.

Okay, darling. You too.

Okay, I'll see you then.

Hey, Susan?

Yeah?

I love you.

Oh, I love you too.

See you later on.

Bye.

Bye -bye.

Hey, where are you going? The party's just started.

I'm going out.

She a fucking bitch.

Cold woman.

Fucking scary.

But I still got you.

Want to go to the pool?

Sure. Yeah? Let's go. Go to the pool and play. Yeah.

I'm sure Ted has told you about me.

Well, actually, no.

Won't you come in?

Do you want a cup of tea or something?

Actually, no.

I'd like Ted back.

But I suppose that's out of the question.

Yeah, I would say it's out of the question. He just proposed to me

and I accepted.

We're going to be married.

Oh.

Congratulations. You're pretty.

Does like them pretty.

Ted and I were lovers, you know.

I just, uh, dropped by to make sure that there were no hard feelings.

Well, I'm sure there aren't.

Maybe we could all three get together for drinks.

Sometime.

Well, we'll have to talk about that. But not tonight.

I've got to go pick Ted up at the airport.

I don't think so.

I really don't think so.

Oh, my God.

I really don't think you're going anywhere.

What's the matter, scared bitch?

I can't have him.

If I can't have him, nobody can!

Here, have some coffee.

Settle your nerves.

No, thanks.

Oh, boy.

Miss Reynolds just passed away on the operating team.

Oh, God.

And Susan, well, the bullet just missed her heart.

She's in a coma right now and it doesn't look good.

Can't die now.

Not now.

Come on, man.

You gotta face it.

We all gotta go sometime.

No!

I won't let her die.

Mr. Palmer, I can't leave the patient right now. She's critical and... Get

You'll kill her.

What's the difference? You said she'd die anyway.

For God's sake, Ted, leave her alone.

Leave her be.

Susan. Susan, please listen to me.

I love you.

I can't live without you.

Susan, you've got to hear me.

You've got to hear me.

You have to live.

Ted, leave her alone.

Doc! Give it up.

You're not going to get in there. Her heart can't take the strain.

Nurse, get the orderly.

Susan, I've got to try something.

I've got to make love to you.

I want you to try to remember how it felt.

Christ, they're hard to stop.

Let me in. Crash cart to 324.

Come on, Doc.

Look, it stopped.

Let me in.

Ted Palmer.

Yes?

Where am I?

Your soul is between worlds, where time and space merge into eternity.

Why?

Why am I here?

You must make a decision.

I've already done that, dammit.

Susan has to live.

Are you willing to give up your life?

For the woman you love?

Yes, I'll do anything. Take me instead.

But please, please let Susan live.

You have made your decision.

Now you must abide by our decision.

Wait. What is your decision?

Wait. I have to know.

Wait.

Wait.

Yeah, I'm fine.

Would you mind? Yeah, we have some private business to attend to.

You know what? What?

I love you so much.

I love you, too.

Oh, yeah?

Prove it, Buster.

You bet.

I think the third in kind
