All language subtitles for Edison.and.Leo.2008

When you think of the lives of the great
inventors, it is usually stories about

the pursuit of excellence, noble
endeavors, and striving to find things

will benefit all of mankind.

This is not one of those stories.

This is the story of an inventor by the
name of George T. Edison.

Edison invented many things.

But what he considered to be his
greatest invention of all was not what

think.

It wasn't the light bulb.

Oh, sure, he was also working on a light
bulb. All of the great inventors were

racing to find the one filament that
would burn the longest.

And so Edison, working away in his
fortified compound called Pickerton

would stop at nothing to get his light
bulb patented first.

If that meant stealing materials from
around the globe, so be it. Edison

consider it stealing.

He called it... collecting.

Actually, come to think of it, this
isn't about Edison.

Not really.

This is about his greatest invention of
all.

Hurry yourself, woman.

By the way, that's me.

But I don't factor into the story yet.

So back to Edison.

For now.

who starts a fight on company time is
damn well gonna finish it!

Bachelor!

Bachelor!

Power! It's not warmed up yet!

Bachelor, the light's going out. How
long has it lasted?

Thirty -eight hours.

Terrible. Coconut hair is no good as a
filament.

We're going back to bamboos.

You have any scissors on you?

That's something we haven't tried.

Good manly fiber from God's noblest
creation.

Let's carbonize these hairs, put them in
a light bulb, and see what happens.

Make a note, bachelor.

Let's hire some farm boys who can fight.

Men of science is what I want. We're
forgetting the men part.

Our guests have arrived, love.

Come to dinner, Papa. I'll protect you
from that lady who hides behind the

That's not a mask, Leo. It's a veil.

They're going to help me with my light
bulb conundrum. I'm not invited because

puked last time.

Not to worry, Leo.

You'll make your mark someday.

Oh, you card.

My compliments on the wonderful meal,
Mrs. Edison.

Why, thank you. It's nice to have you.

Now look here, Gokul.

I expect you to ransack every jungle
until you find a match for this bamboo

specimen for my light bulbs.

Hmm. And you have no idea where it came
from?

Hmm. Oh, uh, somewhere in the Orient.

The damned explorer was half mad when he
returned.

Oh, my.

Is anyone interested in hearing my
recording?

Oh, yes, dear.

Your husband tells me he invented the
phonograph just so he could hear you

any time of the day or night.

A few turns of the crank.

Voila.

Now the whole world can share my thrill.

Excuse me.

What is he doing?

The vibrations go through his jawbone.

When he was 12 years old, he was running
to catch a moving train.

Conductor grabbed him by the ears to
lift him up, and something snapped.

He hears with his teeth.

Look at our piano and his bite mark.

Sometimes I think he only hears what he
wants to.

Let's feed it up a little.

Maybe that's a dry little white bird.

No problem.

Straight out of the jungle.

Don't think that works.

Gentle one.

Animal.

Hello?

Yes?

Can you hear Mama singing up there?

George, the boys want to say goodnight
to you. In Morse code.

Okay. Mr. Dash, you and Mr. Dot send
your message.

Mm -hmm.

Good night.

Very nice.

I love you.

Mm -hmm.

Leo. Mm -hmm.

Lottie, they want you to tuck them in.

Ah,

a man after my own heart.

Come.

I'll show you my prized collection of
artifacts.

Leo, give it to me. But it's mine.

Dad makes all the good stuff for you.
Does not.

So, make room for Leo. You've got your
own bedroom.

How come Leo gets a story? You're old
enough to read your own.

Are you sorry for what you did to that
poor squirrel?

Leo did it, did not.

If there's one thing I can't abide, it's
a lie.

Besides, you went and hung him in the
pantry.

Pickle did that.

That dog is your best friend. You
shouldn't blame it for your bad

Stolen, collected, what's the
difference?

These are Indian scalps, are they not?

Yes, indeed.

These are from the men of the Basana
tribe. The women, healers and warriors,

unmatched. Took matters into their own
hands.

By matters, one can assume that you mean
the heads of men.

Savages!

Discontent is the first necessity of
progress.

Mama, tell me how you and Papa got
married.

Well, you know the story by heart.

Why don't you tell me?

Once upon a time, there was a very rich
man with hair in his ears who met a lady

who couldn't sing.

The end.

That's not how it goes.

I tell your father you have it in you to
be a good boy.

Do I get a hug?

Faraday, where are your manners?
Manners?

Mama?

Papa took my hand and started pressing
down his finger in my palm.

Will you marry me?

And then I... tapped out my answer.

It was yes!

What's this jeweled knife?

Ah, that's a rare item.

They call it a viper knife.

It's still tipped with the maraba poison
used to find out whether a wife is

guilty of cheating on her husband.

What about cheating husbands?

Maybe they figure the husband is always
guilty.

But sometimes wives are innocent.

If she's been faithful, she could be cut
with a viper knife and the poison

wouldn't enter her.

They make a tiny cut under the lower
lip, then sit her down and wait.

Wait? For what?

For the poison to find the falseness in
her.

And swell the lip till it becomes a
monstrous venom sack.

And when it pops open, she's dead in 30
minutes.

Oh, my.

Do any survive this ordeal?

Huh?

Who cares?

We'd best to bed.

We've traveled a long distance today.

Until the morning, Mr. Edison.

Until the morning.

for a little while.

Does Papa ever go to bed?

His work is never done.

I'm afraid I'm gonna dream of monsters
again.

Aw, there are no monsters anywhere near
Pickerton Park.

And even if there were, we're completely
safe inside our electric fence.

Nothing bad could ever get through.

Good night, Leo.

Monsters, is it?

Let me tell you about the greatest
monster fighter of all, your

Captain Samuel Boom Edison, a .k .a.

me!

Did you really kill a monster?

feet in length.

He weighed almost 50 pounds.

He was so scary.

Monster.

Poison find the falseness

Summatory

Must

We've been under hunt for dead.

Our village burned to the ground after
the thieves made off with the viper

knife. He did that.

Ladder!

Or will the scientist who stole the
ancient artifacts deface his own loyal

We tracked the knife to Calcutta, and
then the trail went cold.

Until Edison bragged about it to a
bamboo dealer.

And so you kill his wife in return?

I've done nothing. Give her a sleeping
pill and a little cut.

With my penknife.

His wife will live because he is a man
of science.

But will he, Ernie?

Arrangement was, I pose as your wife,
and you fill my pockets with gold.

Yes.

New arrangement, honey.

You too, Zella.

Bachelor, wake up.

This minute.

All right, all right. I'm up.

There's no time to lose.

We've got to drive like the Furies.

The track is clear.

All the way to Gimli.

Great.

How did this lip business happen, Seth?

Accident. Why not take her to the
hospital?

For what?

Miserable patchwork surgery that'll
leave hideous scars? No, thank you.

The Thana way is better.

Murder.

But they're so primitive. Whatever herbs
and spells they use, these women get

results.

Miracles, bachelor.

Asana put our doctors to shame.

Why not let Lottis back?

It's her life you've made.

Oh, no.

We'll keep her sedated as long as
possible.

She's not going to see herself this way.

I'll spare her that.

Never again will we be at the mercy of
men.

Discontent is the first necessity of
progress, after all.

I don't know what that means.

It means this time, I'm sure I know
where we belong.

With the persona.

Good gracious.

Drink.

We join our water with your wife's spit
and pus.

The Book of Light says no cure unless we
are all in one mouth.

There's a lot of spit in here that's not
hers.

Are you sure your book of life is
correct?

It contains all the wisdom of our
people.

It can't.

How did this court come into it?

I'm no death monger. In reverence to the
holiest of mothers, you must empty the

cup as you kneel before her.

Mr.

Edison.

Your wife is in there.

Complete the healing and she will never
know.

It's a miracle.

Good, isn't it?

Wait.

She is not quite with us.

You must not take hold of her until she
is out of the spirit world.

How do we make her whole again?

You must paint her skin with this sweet
oil and watch as it causes her body and

spirit to knit together.

With pleasure.

Let me bring her back to life.

Soft but smooth. See how she glows.

Oh, you missed a spot.

My wife is a modest woman.

Grant us a moment alone so I might
undress her in private.

Her life hangs in the balance.

You too, bachelor.

Prepare the train.

You must coat her entire body or she
will not leave the spirit world.

I don't see any other stallions in the
corral around here. Oh, they cut it off

years ago. Never crossed.

Let's go.

Party! Party!

Fire!

Fire!

Bachelor!

Start the engine!

Have you no patience? Now she will never
return.

Edison has stolen the Book of Light.

My sister's after him.

Get us out of here now.

It's the Magnafield Enhancer.

It's not warmed up yet.

I'll reroute the auxiliary dynamo in
parallel.

Bachelor! Hang on!

Fear not, sister.

This track leads straight to the net.

Is this book the root of our situation?

Not situation.

Solution. Look here.

An electric shock to the brain can get
it back in working order.

Makes sense, doesn't it? Your circuits
are jammed, then whoosh. What?

A clean blast of power and light.

Hasn't she suffered enough?

Yes. My point exactly.

It's the Book of Light.

The Book of what?

Return what is ours.

There's nothing here that belongs to
you, so take your manes, ye brigade of

mules and skedaddle.

Oh, no!

Just another moment, Mrs. Edison.

You will get you wired up nice and good.

The purest character is great from the
heaven.

Death Buster!

Do you understand that if you join us as
a sister, our friends become your

friends, and our enemies become your
enemies as well?

I do.

Welcome, new sister.

Now rest your health.

Tell us you've reclaimed our sacred
text.

Edison's compound is surrounded by
electricity beyond anything told of in

Book of Light.

A simple attack will do nothing but burn
more warriors like Cedar Shakes in the

fire. Then we mount more than a simple
attack.

Reveal!

Dead. I don't know whether he's dead or
alive.

Then what of Lara?

Gone.

Is there a heartbeat?

I'm too deaf to hear.

All I hear is static.

Look!

It's Morse Code!

My boy is alive!

He says, I want Mama!

The Book of Light was right.

Let's increase the flow of electricity.

If it hasn't killed him, it'll make him
stronger.

Tell me what happened to Mama?

Well, are you ready for the truth?

Ow, these things are heavy.

Shh, just watch.

Two persona came for dinner, a man and a
woman.

The man fell in love with your mother,
but his feelings were not returned

because your mother loved your father
so.

The woman was jealous of her beauty.

They both decided to destroy her mind.

She never stood a chance.

They put an electric curse on you and
cast a spell on her that sent her to the

roof. That's where she died.

And these are the glasses I made, so
you'll never forget her.

Happy birthday, Leo!

Thanks. Hey!

Where did you bring me, Grandpa?

I think you got a pretty good idea.

Leo, these are exchange students from
Winnipeg.

I thought there'd be some boys I know.

As soon as you meet these children,
they'll be your friends.

Now, this is Renee.

Hello.

Renee?

Here's your gift for Leo, if I'm not
mistaken.

It's a real telescope that makes bird
sounds when you look through it. How do

you know?

Did you pick out their presents?

Renee was so pleased that he let me in
on the secret.

Now I've spoiled it.

Can I open Grandpa's present now?

We're going off to war someday.

Where's my sword?

Hush up, Faraday.

Those hot -ass she -devils are at it
again, mounting an attack by the west

It's Leo's birthday.

This won't do.

Father, you hold guard here.

I'm coming too.

Oh, no, you're not.

You'll just get underfoot.

about trying this blindfold on, and then
I'll spin you around, and you try to

find me.

Follow my voice.

Am I getting warmer?

Watch me, Grandpa.

Oh, I'm watching, sonny boy.

Am I getting warmer?

Am I... Am I getting warmer?

Your daddy thinks he's so clever. I told
him you wouldn't be fooled.

Now what's your name again, little girl?

It's an Addison!

Leonardo!

God, thanks. Stop it.

But this is one party I really like. Am
I getting warmer?

Do you have any idea how much time and
expense went into those children?

Why do you always trick me?

Why can't I have any friends for real?

She loved Amelia.

And I built this so that every time we
come and listen to her ordeal, she is

right in the room with us.

She's just another electric contraption.

Why did she hit you with the hammer?

Huh? On the roof. Why did she hit you?

You watched the synagogues. The personas
ruined her mind and placed a curse on

you. Then I hate every persona who ever
lived.

Their fault I wasn't made right.

You are made right.

The electricity you've got inside of you
is God's power.

I can't even hold my friend's hand.

Napoleon said, Some men are meteors that
burn so the earth may be lighted.

You are my greatest invention, Leo.

And one day you'll touch people with
awe.

Not again.

For ten long years, Leo didn't have any
friends.

One touch, and he'd fry them.

And it stayed that way until my mom
moved us to

Pickerton Park to take a job as a
seamstress.

This is when I come back into the story.

Shouldn't you be heading back to
classes?

Uh, I'm the, uh... I'm the gardener.

No, you're not.

I know about you.

They say, be sure to keep the garden
gate locked. There's this electrified

man lurking about, always trying to get
in.

Did you leave it open?

Is that you?

I'm sorry, I... I can't make it stop.

You really are an electric boy?

I thought they were making that part up.
I'm not a machine.

That's what you're thinking.

I'm human.

Well, obviously.

You're George Edison's son.

I'd like to capture you in the
kinetoscope.

Are you flirting with me?

Just imagine that the only thing on the
screen is your face.

And it's 15 feet high. Your face is the
whole world.

Ow! Oh, no.

What have we done?

What I do best?

I mess things up.

That's too bad.

Tell me, where does your electricity
come from?

Come again?

I'm half -deaf, you know.

How do you turn off your electricity?

That's between me, the devil, and the
bedpost.

Hey, I've made my first friend.

Leo, this is my mother.

Leo's father built this moving picture
machine and he's going to... Leo?

Leo Edison?

You truly are electric.

We have to go.

See you later, Leo.

What the devil?

What, oh, Leo.

Bye, Leo.

Father, do you believe in love at first
sight?

Leo, as a young man with hormones at
high tide, you probably find her quite

entrancing spectacle.

The problem is, if you touched her, you
might kill her.

You need a circuit breaker, Leo.

It's as much to protect yourself as
someone you may fall in love with.

Now, suppose your brain had the ability
to do this kind of X -ray at will.

Huh?

Stripping off all the enticing lures and
veils and every last layer of lipstick.

It's horrible.

And you're about to think so, too.

Not a peep out of it.

I can implant this in your system.

It'll be another step towards perfecting
my greatest invention.

I am not an invention.

Implant those, you shut down a young
man's desires.

A real man would never do it.

Yes.

Let's be reminded again that you're a
real man because you signed up for war

were too afraid to leave Pickerton Park.

Well, someone needs to keep defending
this place from the Pasaana. They

attacked for at least a year.

I could be a scientist if you'd let me.
You remember my combination bird trap

cat feeder scheme?

Who would buy that?

If you can't find buyers for your
invention, it's a dumb invention.

When do I get a respectable job?

When you prove you're competent. What
voltage is used on streetcars?

How many fuses in the fuse box here?

But that's a trick question.

How am I supposed to know about the fuse
box here if you never show me?

What about Faraday's plan to heat houses
with the sun? You can't patent the sun.

I don't need help fighting my battle.

And while we're at it, what has Leo done
lately? He can't even stand out in the

rain.

You're out of line, soldier boy.

Emily, these squabbles are small
potatoes. Years ago when I escaped from

Chukotomi. Exactly, father.

If you can stand up to me in a fight,
war hero, I'll keep you in the will.

make me do this.

Do what?

Hurt me?

Well, we'll want a record of that. Leo!

Get the camera rolling.

Make sure I'm in focus.

This is something people will pay to
see.

Come on.

And give it some chance.

So, what'll it be, Leo?

Are you up for the circuitry implant?

That's not fair.

Fair? My lady's fair.

Fight like a man. Joe, isn't there a
better way than those confounded

How about a retreat?

We'll cleanse our minds to conjure
another solution.

What about the persona?

The persona gave up. Yet another reason
for a retreat.

To celebrate.

But... None of us have left Pickerton
Park since the night... Since the night

Mother died!

Go ahead, then.

Throw me out.

I'm not throwing you out.

You're my son.

I just want you to find something you're
good at and stick with it.

No.

If you want to make friends here, stick
to the serving class.

You have no business spending time with
Edison.

Leo's only half Edison.

The rest of him is electric.

Why are you smoking out that rug?

We'll just have to beat it again. There
are 20 different kinds of fools, and

when you're not being a fool, you're
just being insolent.

You think I don't know you're sending
smoke signals?

I'm just letting our sisters know we
miss them.

She's in Pickerton Park as planned, but
is having no luck getting the

information from Edison.

She's trying for the sun next.

The weak one.

Hey!

I thought he said to fight like a man.

And what of it, Seamstress?

You're out of line.

Come visit me at my cottage tomorrow.

And lose the mutt.

Careful!

You're not much of a hand holder.

It would hurt you.

Did your father make you this way?

It was a curse.

A curse on both me and my mother.

Is she electric too?

Can she zap a tick or fry a pond of
fish?

I've never shown this to anyone.

Oh, Leo.

I had no idea.

Father thought this would help keep Mama
alive for me.

Now, all my memories are of her.

The metal one.

When I was younger, my brother told me
that our new mother would come clanking

down the stairs at night to my room and
eat me.

He said she'd come after me first
because I was her favorite.

That's awful.

Who put the curse on her?

Pathanas. They destroyed her mind.

Pathanas?

You must have that wrong.

I grew up with them.

Are you one of them?

If you are, you're my sworn enemy.

Do you believe that?

Pathanas killed my mother and did this
to me.

That's a fact.

And when the boat reaches Zanzibar,
we'll be treated like God's pickle.

Far away from the likes of Pickerton
Park.

Why didn't you come to visit me?

Huh?

Skulking again soon, Tris?

Not skulking.

Scheming.

Scheming about what?

A way to make you the master of all you
see.

I already schemed that.

I plan to bring it down from within.

Strike at the heart.

I have friends who can help you once
they gain entrance.

So tell me, what powers the fence?

Simple.

Electricity. And what unpowers the
fence?

Simple again.

The fuse box.

Where? Pray tell, does one find this
fuse box?

Um, uh... You don't know, do you?

Well, I don't know yet!

Ow! Your mother would want you to avenge
her death.

Find the fuse box.

And we'll do it together.

Your father should be paid back for this
nightmare, telling you such lies about

the Pasaana for so long.

Who says the Pasaana would tell me the
truth?

Who says Father's version isn't the
truth?

Trust me.

It'll take six months for us to reach
Gimli on this.

See? That's why Father never lets me
outside of Pickerton Park. I just mess

things up.

Oh, woe is me. I'm an electric boy who
messes things up.

Put your hand on it again. Only this
time, don't let go.

Try just three fingers.

It's working!

Let it lie like the wind.

Warm! Fingers!

We come in peace, sisters.

He just wants the truth.

Bring the son of Edison.

Your father used the stolen teachings of
the Book of Light to give you this

power.

He said you did this to me.

And besides, you gave him the Book of
Light.

Why would we give up our sacred book?

Because of what you did to my mother.

We will not be held responsible for the
actions of your father.

The truth is yours, if you want it.

What happened to my mother?

What happened to me?

Drink of our tears of pain.

From this you will learn the painful
truth.

Rubble! Who's the girl?

Zella Shane, the seamstress's daughter.
What did you think of the story? The

lightning looked fake.

I hope it had some impact on you.

Indeed it did.

I'm in love with her.

What? Love at first sight.

What are you talking about?

No one's made me feel this way since
your mother died.

But you didn't even... You don't even
know her. You're annoyed with me.

You have feelings for her.

You can't really love her.

Not... That way, you'd kill her.

The trip to the Mineral Springs will put
a damper on your fire for this girl.

I'll get Bachelor to book it for
tonight. Tonight?

In the meantime, I'd love to meet this
beauty in person.

Call your friends.

My plan has changed.

Have you figured out a way to disarm the
fence yet?

Uh, no.

You must.

Your mending job is requested.

Huh?

Did you see the movie? It was a
resounding failure.

You must get the secret of the electric
fence.

The success of our plan depends on it.
No need.

My father and the men will be at the
False Creek Mineral Springs. His head

be well steamed and ready for the
lopping off.

Of this you're sure?

Positive.

Mother?

Give me back my life.

Are you okay?

Father warned me I wouldn't be able
to... Sure you will.

Your father was wrong about the curse.

And he's wrong about you.

He wants to meet you.

Then introduce us, and we'll sort this
whole thing out.

But... You want to meet him?

Yes. Fine.

Follow me.

Hmm.

Zella, my father.

Father, Zella.

George Edison.

Hello. Hello.

You... Played my wife beautifully.

Leo,

where are you going?

Boys will be boys.

Have a look -see.

I wish there were 36 hours in the day.
Then I might really accomplish

What's left to do?

This.

Well, come on, then.

Tell me the truth.

I'm, uh... Bedazzled?

Mildly impressed.

Come, dance with me.

Mr.

Edison, I'm not a very good dancer.

Oh, I can teach you.

I'm leaving, Pickle.

Father created this place, and it runs
by his rules. There's nothing here for

anymore.

Hmm.

Ready to go, then.

Have you seen your father?

He's busy.

No change of plans with the trip to the
Mineral Springs, I hope. No change on my

part.

Well, he knows where we're going.

We're all used to him being late.

Oh, God.

Where's Father?

I'm going to be blamed for this.

How could I have known he would change
his mind?

We still have time to fix this.

It's his head or yours, Faraday.

Find the fuse box.

Disable the fence.

Faraday. Huh?

I forgot something.

I'll meet you at the spring.

Where did you learn to be so stubborn?

I could ask the same.

Everything I do is one percent
inspiration.

Why did you lie to Leo about the persona
curse?

Come again?

I'm half -dead, you know. It's just a
matter of time before he stops hiding

behind movies and confronts you
directly.

He knows the truth.

The truth is between me, the devil, and
the bedpost.

And you should know, I love him.

Come again?

I love Leo.

Makes sense.

He is my greatest invention.

You!

Are you the reason my father hasn't left
with the men?

It's not what you think.

Well, what do I care? The Pathana are on
their way.

What?

The day of atonement has arrived.

Or something like that.

Blueberry pie.

I don't have to talk to the cook about
this.

He can't.

Now what's the matter?

I can't seem straight.

Bed's the place for me.

Good day, my boy.

The fuse box, father. Where is it?

Gotta pass the test.

Where is the fuse box? I'm fake. No
power.

We could be courageous.

Attention,

soldier. The fuse box.

Where is it?

What are you doing back?

I've forgotten the Orfeo.

What are you doing?

Have you seen the fuse box in here?

Father always challenged me to find one
thing I'm good at, and I have.

Revenge. Revenge?

The devil's reign is over, Leo. I've
sent word to my legion. You're what?

How's this for a headline?

Famed inventor beheaded by personas.

They're attacking the mineral springs at
Foss Creek first.

What? They'll be here shortly to finish
off Father once I find the fuse box.

What about Bachelor and his men?

Stop the massacre.

Impossible.

All the lines to the sanatorium had been
cut.

We thought of everything, Tony and I.
She's my girlfriend.

Bachelor.

Just what... But in my life, things will
go my way.

Your persona godmothers will be here
shortly. Brush your hair.

You should look presentable when they
swatter the Edison.

Slaughter? Why do you think we're here,
girl?

To rescue the Book of Light and take our
revenge.

You stole my mother from me.

You stole the Book of Light from them.

You brought the Pasaana against us all.
No more!

No more.

Fuck!

Am I getting warmer?

Good dog, Pickle.

Forget the fuse box, father!

I'll strike at the heart!

It's just so embarrassing.

The power.

Where's Leo? We have to leave. Now.

He can't.

I'll paint you in persona spirit.

No.

What's wrong?

Your mouth.

Who did this?

My mouth?

There's nothing wrong with my mouth.

The demons have taken hold of my senses.

Grandpa, where's father?

Hickory -toiling. All I know is this
smells like pizanna.

Yep. I wish I'd listened better when my
father taught me about the Indian

science and nature. Listen for snapping
twigs. I remember that much.

It just occurred to me that I'm a yellow
belly.

Through and through.

How about you?

I'm an engineer.

Water and bits is all new to me.

Is that a paralyzer dart?

Are you flirting with me?

How many generals miss glory because of
one simple mistake?

Terrible in the Alps?

They should have seen those elephants
coming.

What the hell did they think they were
looking at?

Oh,

the Alps!

light bulbs.

I have no fight with you. What?

I have no fight with you.

My father...

What devilry is this, Faraday?

Devilry, revelry.

The Pasaana are here to make short
business with the old man.

The Pasaana aren't the only ones on the
warpath.

Leo?

An imposter had listened to that lying
scout and got too big for his britches?

You didn't burn me I controlled it

Leo?

Your wish has been granted.

You have your life back.

You gave me that.

You gave me the strength to find the
truth.

Shut up and kiss me.

Grandpa?

Huh? Leo, my boy.

Give me a hand.

Not exactly what I had in mind. You
killed my mother.

And you destroyed me.

I brought you back.

You're my greatest invention.

I am not an invention.

I'm your son.

Come on.

You can do better than that.

Is it really what you want?

You know how much you've hurt me.

How much you've hurt us all.

That damn book of light.

When it comes to people, you can't
invent a solution to every problem.

Puppycock!

Puppycock is it!

I didn't think you had it in

you.

What are you doing? I'm claiming it as a
trophy and putting it on display at the

Pasana Village.

Picotin Park is mine!

Leo?

When I was five, I threw up at a dinner
table with all these important guests

over.

He jumped up and he cleaned the mess
away with his napkin.

He smiled at me like we were the only
ones in the world that mattered.

Oh, Leo.

You ruined my dinner party, you little
puker.

But it can't be.

Who are you?

Who do you think?

George T.

Edison. Big as life.

Huh?

Killed you!

He, that is, George No. 1, left very
little to chance.

Every night after saying his prayers, he
hooked up his brain to my storage

battery and saved everything that had
entered his mind that day.

He wanted his replacement, when death
came knocking, to be nearly up to the

minute. And so I am.

What do you intend to do?

To take up where I... he.

Left on.

Pickerton Park isn't brilliant.

Really?

I miss that part.

I'll just have to rebuild.

It'll be bigger and better than ever.

So long. So long. I'm going to Squamish.

What on earth for?

It's a mud pit.

It's time I left home.

I should have taken out a patent on you.

My greatest invention is heading west.

Your greatest invention is yet to be

realized.

You're right!

Don't forget to close the gate when you
leave.

There they are.

Take care of them.

And such was the story of Edison's
greatest invention.

I'm not an invention, Zella. The
invention I'm talking about was George

continued to run Pickerton Park till
this day.

As for George I, he's still with my
mother.

And when the boat reaches Zanzibar,
we'll be treated like gods, Pickle.
