there just reading those manuals and

punching in those programs she never

sees anybody she's hardly been out of

the house since the funeral just her way

of working through her grief must be the

hardest thing in the world who lose a

twin I think we just have to try to be

patient and help her through this honey

[Applause]

hi I have a package for Susan Anderson

well I'm her mother good would you sign

please I don't know thank you my mom had

a real breakthrough this morning

I got into a humungous databank I think

I'm really getting somewhere

this package arrived for you do you know

anything about it no just put on the bed

don't you want to know what it is I'm in

the middle second you mind if I open it

if you want you know that riding camp

that you wanted to go to and I said you

couldn't because Kevin was so sick

well I don't see why you couldn't go now

you know you're sitting around all

summer I've signed you up for the next

two weeks session isn't it great now

it's the voice synthesiser

I can't believe it what is it the voice

synthesizer uh it's kind of a talk box

he knew I was ready for it who knew what

are you talking about

Mookie he's in the net working on the

computer he ordered it for me

you can't be serious but who could have

ordered it did you of course not I don't

know she she could have done it herself

you know Harold that's a terrible thing

to say well couldn't she Ruth

we've got to put an end to this I worked

out a deal today with dave meltzer for

the computer so let's just go up there

unplug the thing and take it out of

there just like that just like that

we've got to make a clean break now

believe me we won't have a problem

what's going on Susan we've decided now

what are you doing there

did you hear Mookie yes of course we do

no I didn't hear anybody what I heard

was a computer controlled electronic

voice no matter how fancy a computer is

Susan it's still only a machine

it was mookie calling me he's out there

in the network and he needs me to get

through to him that's why he left me his

notes mom tell him

let's talk sense Susan Kevin is not

inside a computer and he's not on any

network you don't understand Kevin's my

twin brother I know he's in there Susan

you've got a choice you either stop this

nonsense right now or I'm gonna have

this computer disconnected and taken

away

sweetheart don't let him do it I can't

leave Mookie stranded honey are you sure

that's it Mookie I'm done

come on talk to me oh darling you look

exhausted why don't you stop for a while

mom something's terrible's happened I

just finished the program and a did you

sell the computer to a mr. Meltzer I

told you

Mookie you found the check in the

computer network come on Suzy did you

sell it as a matter of fact I did told

you I would I warned you Susan what is

he gonna take it away sometime this

afternoon I think Oh dad what am I gonna

do look I'll prove to you the monkeys in

here if I prove it to you will you

change your mind okay okay I will on one

condition

then you change yours if you fail okay

okay punch you a question any question

at all he will answer you

you go first oh no

you're the believer you try what do I do

just type out any question look on a

typewriter you'll see Kevin you there

you won't answer you why he answers me

try again

you

you really

maybe he's mad at you for selling the

computer and he won't answer you he

answers me we made a deal Susan I know

but I can prove it dad I swear I just

need a little more time okay

Harold we've waited this long of days

won't make any difference I'm sorry what

I'll see what I can do Susan where are

you when I need you

who's not ready

dad whose roof what if she's telling the

truth what if she has reached Kevin

I heard him it was real you heard

something sure

a gimmick a pre-programmed electronic

voice synthesizer every kid on the block

can do this trick it's no big deal

what about dave meltzer how do you

explain that she doesn't even know him

simple she broke into some databank and

came across to check my chance no I

don't think it's that simple

Ruth come on there's no magic in

computers but there is for me okay I'll

tell you what I'll give her one more

chance

good news you changed your mind no not

that here I pick I'm fine now you've

done a good job it's time to let Dad

unplug the computer and sell it to mr.

Meltzer Mookie Mookie didn't write this

you did how could you think I could

believe this how could you expect me to

believe that because that is real and

this isn't prove it my dad tried to

trick me

Harold you said you'd give her another

chance I've had enough of this we'll

settle this once and for all now you

tell Kevin that I'm going to unplug his

computer he has something to say now's
