We're a auction service out of merrill, Wisconsin

gleason state bank as a secured party

here under Roy Anderson property.

Harvey woodward, of course, representing

the home office out of merrill be working here with me today

You bid to either one of us.

We'll roll along as fast as we can.

All things are being sold here today without reservations

for the last bid regardless of price

ordered by the courts and the secured party;

that includes all machinery, cattle, and the real estate.

No salel

go away!

No.

Hi, mom.

No, I'm still at school.

Oh, I know, but it takes a long time

to say goodbye to your friends.

Listen, mom, I'll be in sometime this week.

Another foreclosure, oh, god.

Poor dad.

I know he has to represent the bank, mom.

But he hates doing it.

He's lived with these people most of his life.

Maybe I'll stop by the bank when I get in

and get a ride home from him.

Well, I've gotta go.

Give dad my love and tell him to hang in there.

Love you too, mom, goodbye.

Hi. - Hi, Jill.

How are you?

Fine, thank you.

No, I haven't.

Well, how about my mom?

No, she hasn't been in.

Do you know where they might be at all?

He may be at a meeting.

I don't know.

Okay, well, thanks anyway.

Have a good day. - Sure, bye.

Think we'll be in business much longer?

Another foreclosure auction

got underway today in Wade county.

Tempers flared when local farmers,

outraged by the loss of their farms,

gathered to protest and shout down the auctioneer.

Six months ago our cameras were in Winchester

to record the first in what has become a series

of forced farm sales.

First was the Dickinson farm.

Shortly after the Brent family was dispossessed,

and today it was the turn of the Anderson's.

Local feelings reached a fever pitch

as several more farmers faced the prospect

of loosing their homesteads in the coming months.

What turned into an ugly incident was brought

under control by Wade county deputy bill robowsky.

Mr. Robinson, who represented the Wade county bank,

was present to oversee the foreclosure

and had to be escorted from the scene

by sheriff's deputies to avoid the angry mob.

And he has muscles in all the right places.

And I suppose he's captain of the football team?

How'd you guess?

Let's face it, Jill,

you always did have the best.

What is with everybody?

The Robinson family isn't exactly

popular around here right now.

My father's just doing his job, Sarah.

Anyway, if you need a lift, let's go.

Thanks for the ride, Sarah, bye.

Mom.

Dad.

Mom!

Who in the hell are you?

And what are you doing in this house?

I've just come to welcome you home, Jill.

Merv.

Marvelous mervo at your service.

Oh, goddamn you scared the shit out of me.

What the hell is going on around here?

And who did that?

I've brought you some flowers, Jill.

Where are my parents?

I picked these especially for you.

Merv, I want some answers.

Don't you want them?

Mervon, what the hell you doin' bothering Jill.

Is this some kind of practical joke?

Have you seen my parents?

Yeah, I saw your father yesterday.

He even spoke to me for once.

Three words, "go to hell."

Gary, this is serious.

He hasn't been at the bank at all,

and where is my mom?

They knew I was coming home this week.

Look, Jill, all I can tell ya is

things have been kind of rough around here since ya left.

Everybody's pissed off at the bank,

and your dad's been taken a lot of flack for it.

But everything is going to be alright, Jill.

J we're really glad to see you

j we're really glad you're here

j because you see to Gary and me

j you really are a dear, tada

my crazy brother he's gettin' worse every day.

He hardly takes the makeup off anymore.

I'm gonna go take him home you gonna be alright?

Uh, yeah, I'll be fine.

Well, I'll come by later just to make sure.

Jill.

Fuck you, bitch.

Oh, my god.

Holy shit.

Jesus Christ, Jake, you wackadoo

you shot her in the head.

Leave me alone. - Ooh.

Sorry, it's only paint.

What are you doin' out here anyway?

Well, I was trying to get into town.

You were gonna walk into town.

Yes, I was gonna walk into town.

Come on, let me give ya a lift.

So, how about I make it up to ya on a date?

Sorry, but I'm engaged.

How about some meaningless sex?

Sheriff Buckley, I don't like people

throwing bricks through our window.

Whoa, whoa, Jill, take it easy.

You got a temper worse than your father's.

From the beginning a little slower please.

Okay.

Where is my father?

Where is my mother?

Well, they're not under here.

How the heck do I know?

I mean, the less I see of your father the better I like it.

Listen, I can't find my parents anywhere.

Someone made a mess of our house.

They hung a dummy with an arrow sticking through it

in the middle of our living room.

I have been getting threatening phone calls,

and to top it all off,

someone threw a brick through our window.

A brick through your window.

Yes, a brick.

Okay, you got my convinced.

Then what are you gonna do about it?

Now?

You want me to give up my softball game

now to go out to your house?

That certainly would be appreciated.

Wonderful.

Marvelous.

I think, I love it.

Jesus Christ.

Well, how are you Mrs. Robinson?

Are you hungry?

Are you comfortable?

Do you want to eat?

Well, it looks normal to me, Jill.

Somebody's playing tricks.

I just hope it wasn't you, young lady.

This is where that thing was hanging.

Is that right?

And over there that window was broken,

and the brick was laying right there.

Why do I get the feeling that you don't believe me?

Maybe you'd believe Gary Dickinson.

He saw it too.

In fact, why don't I give him a call right now.

That's not necessary, Jill.

If this happens again, call me.

On second thought with my bubba gumps goin',

I can make the last inning.

Jill, don't call me.

I'll call you.

J rock of ages cleft for me

j let me hide myself in thee

j let the water

j and the blood

j from thy wounded side which flood

j thee of sin the double cure

j save from wrath and make me pure

Oh, my parents.

My parents.

My parents.

Jill.

Jill.

Are you up there?

Oh, Gary.

Somebody is trying to frighten me,

and I don't know why.

Don't worry, Jill.

I won't let anybody happen to you.

Look, I even cleaned the place up for ya.

You did that?

Oh, my god, you should've seen me

trying to explain this to sheriff Buckley.

He thinks I've gone crazy.

Seriously, Gary, something really is wrong around here.

You know how they are they'll get over it.

Who'll get over what?

The farmers.

Look, Jill, I don't think they're trying to hurt you.

It's just that after my folks lost the farm

and the Peters and now the Anderson's and the rest,

they're just plain old mad.

Your folks probably just got out of town

for a couple of days till tempers cooled down.

Oh, I hope you're right.

I know I am.

Say what about a walk?

Now you've gotta be kidding.

Why, you got somethin' better to do?

Come on it'll take your mind off it.

Okay, okay, all right.

You talked me into it.

Why are they dead?

Why are they dead?

Is there anything wrong, my son?

I don't think so, pastor.

If you want to share a burden with someone,

you always know where to find me.

May the good lord guide you.

Wow, it's still there.

Just the way we left it.

Yeah.

Hey, do you wanna go up?

Oh, Gary we're not kids anymore.

Oh, come on it'll be fun.

Well, okay, but you have to go first.

All right.

Okay, I'm going too.

Don't step on my hands.

Why do you think I'm gonna step on your hands for?

Come on I'll help you up.

God, never forgotten this place.

Whose idea was it to build it anyway?

It was my idea.

Oh, yeah!

Yeah.

Well, who found the tree?

Well, who climbed the tree first?

Well, who got the lumber?

Who got the nails?

Well, who got the hammer?

Who forget to put a roof on it?

God, I was crazy about you then.

Do you remember when your dad caught us?

Vividly.

I thought I was gonna die of embarrassment.

I thought he was gonna kill me.

Let's not talk about that, Gary.

I was really sorry to hear about

what happened to your parents.

I mean, who would do such a terrible thing?

Yeah, that's somethin' else I'll never forget.

I was over in ludlow when I got the call.

Got over here as fast as I could.

Sheriff Buckley told me they were

hanging there for three days.

I couldn't stand it.

I had to take down that barn.

That's awful.

My mom said they still don't know who did it.

I find that hard to believe.

There's a real difference since then.

Merv took it really hard.

Gotta watch him all the time.

Yeah, I've noticed.

He's gotten stranger.

Well, no matter what else happens we'll be alright, I guess.

The land's gone, most of the livestock,

but I still have the house so I guess that makes me lucky.

And you're back.

I'm back all right

but not for long.

But I heard you weren't going back to school.

Oh, I'm not.

Well, you see

I met someone, Gary,

and we got engaged.

I was afraid you were gonna say that.

Matter of fact, I knew that once you left Winchester

that would probably happen.

I'm sorry.

Well, I've got some chores to do,

and I gotta check in on merv.

Will I see you later?

Sure.

Sure, I'll see you.

I just thought maybe my mom and dad would be with you.

Yes, I have tried everybody now.

Well, I told her I'd be here before the end of this week.

Okay, I'll try not to.

I'm here.

Thank god you are, merv.

Oh, you're happy to see me.

People are always happy to see me.

Marvelous mervo at your service.

I was just making some coffee.

Would you like some?

Allow me.

Why don't you make yourself at home, Jill.

I'll make us both some.

Well, all right.

Thanks.

Here you are.

Thank you. - Enjoy it.

Enjoy it.

I'm a tree.

Birdies lie in my branches.

Merv, no!

Oh, yes.

It's fine.

I can make others happy,

but what about me?

Can't I make myself happy too.

Buckley.

This is Jill Robinson.

Can you come over here right now?

There's someone sitting on the swing outside.

I'm all alone here.

What's this, Jill, another little fantasy?

Just get over here, sheriff,

or you're liable to have another

unsolved crime on your hands.

Okay, okay.

Just stay inside.

Don't answer the door to anyone

until I get there, understand?

There goes the damn poker game.

Jill, it's me it's Scott.

I've been tryin' to call you.

Scott, where are you?

Well, I'm at school what's wrong?

I don't know.

Tell me what's wrong?

My folks are gone.

Nobody has seen them since the auction.

Somebody threw a brick through our window,

and now there's somebody outside.

What are ya talkin' about?

Scott, I'm frightened.

Call the police.

I alright did.

Please, Scott, talk to me.

The sound of your voice is so good.

You are doing fine, sweetheart.

Jill.

Are you there.

Oh, my god, the squeaking has stopped.

Take it easy.

Scott, I'm frightened.

Jill, talk to me.

Hey, Jill, are you there.

There's somebody on the porch.

Scott.

Open up.

It's sheriff Buckley.

It's okay.

It's the sheriff.

I've gotta go.

I love you.

I love you too.

Here he is.

Here is your prowler.

Mervon.

I didn't want anyone to hurt you.

What do you want me to do with him?

Just take him home.

Scott.

You fool.

You scared me half to death almost.

I'm so pleased to see you.

What would you do if you weren't?

Spread tuna fish all over me

and throw me out the window to a starving cat.

Just trying to surprise you.

Well, you certainly did that.

Looks like I'm gonna have to change my game plan.

Oh, yeah.

Yeah.

Since you don't like surprises,

I'm gonna have to make sure you know

everything I'm gonna do.

Uh, what are you gonna do?

I'll start with a little smooching.

Oh, really.

Yeah, forget, Ted.

What's with the lights?

Are you afraid of the dark?

Well, I don't know.

I just must have been really tired last night.

Well, I've got something that'll wake you up.

Ooh, you are so disgusting.

What a disappointment.

First.

First, what?

I'm gonna nimble on your ears.

Really. - Yeah.

And then you know what I'm gonna do.

Let me put it to you this way.

It's not that I want me innocence back.

Just the experience of losing it again be kind of nice.

Well, first, you're gonna have to catch me.

You know what I'm gonna do?

Undress you.

Scott, I have to answer it.

It might be my folks.

Hello.

Oh, it's you Sarah.

No, I just thought it might be my folks that's all.

Of course, I wanna see you.

Sure.

Good, bye, bye.

Hey, I can't find the beer.

Where does the old man hide it?

Oh, my folks don't drink.

I think there's some juice out there though.

Juice.

After a workout I always have a beer.

Well, you just better drive off to town

and get some then, mr captain.

That might not be a bad idea.

While I'm there, I'll talk to that sheriff friend of yours

and straighten out some of the trouble around here.

Go for it.

If you can't do it,

nobody can.

Alright, well, see you later.

Alright, bye, bye.

Hey.

Wait a minute.

Come here.

Oh, I thought you were Sarah.

Only on the weekends.

I saw a car in your driveway I didn't recognize,

so I thought I'd better come over

and check and see if you were all right.

Well, that was Scott's.

He sort of turned up unexpectedly today.

In fact, he just went into town

to give sheriff Buckley some grief.

I'd like you to meet him.

You know, give me your opinion and all that.

Wait a minute.

Character assessment will cost you

exactly one cup of coffee and a sisterly kiss.

I think I can handle that.

And one thing led to another

and another to another, I mean, you know.

I don't know if my dad didn't interrupt us,

I wonder if you'd have been you and me

instead of Scott and me.

Oh, I wonder if that's Sarah,

or maybe it's Scott?

I seem to be real good at losing people lately.

Shit!

Would you tell your loopy brother

that spying on people isn't very nice.

I swear next time I'm gonna have the sheriff lock him up.

Gary, Gary.

What's the matter?

What have I done?

Now you're gonna just apologize to Jill

for scaring her like that, go on!

I'm tired of everyone telling me what to do.

I may choose to wear the custom of a clown.

I may get confused sometimes since my accident.

But inside I still fly like I used to

high into trees looking down on the tiny ants below,

hearing the applause and feeling them willingly.

Home, now, merv.

Shut up.

I don't hate you for what her father did to our parents.

Slaughtering all my friends like that.

For heaven's sakes, Gary, what is he babbling about.

He's talking about the animals, Jill.

You know, how he used to sit around for hours

just talking to them?

And what does he mean,

"what my father did to his parents?"

I don't understand!

It must be Sarah.

Home, merv now.

I didn't mean any harm.

You always do this to me.

Are we having a costume party?

I'd have worn my gorilla suit.

J goodnight ladies

j goodnight ladies

j goodnight ladies

j it's time for us to go

here we go again. - Goodnight.

Are the most important muscles in this picture?

Well, all except one.

So, when do I get to meet the incredible hulk in person?

You tell me.

He and spike must have hit it off real well,

and they're out together playing golf.

Or softball or tennis.

Or poker.

Or maybe spike couldn't stand his good looks,

and threw him in the slammer.

Yeah, lot of good you are.

If that's the right time,

I should be history already.

All those smiling faces waiting for me at the cafe.

If I see anyone in town who looks like Robert redford,

I'll tell him he was due back here two hours ago.

Oh, yeah.

Course, he might prefer to stay with me.

What, get out of here.

Hello.

What are you doing?

Please!

What are you doing to me?

Oh, my god, no!

No!

No!

Oh, no!

No, please stop.

Please.

No, no, no!

Hail, Mary, full of grace the lord is with thee.

Blessed art thou amongst women.

Blessed is the fruit of thy womb, Jesus.

Holy Mary, mother of god

pray for sinners bound up.

Scott!

Scott, is that you?

Jill, have you seen merv?

No, why don't you come in.

It's cold.

He took off as soon as we got home.

But when I checked his cabin, his disappeared.

I've never seen him this upset.

I'm afraid he's gonna do something silly.

That's funny Scott hasn't come back yet either.

I keep thinking I am gonna wake up soon

and find myself back in my bed at school

just waiting to come home.

I'm gonna give Sarah a call.

Maybe she saw him around.

She knows him.

She saw a photograph.

You didn't show me one.

Oh, Gary.

What's good enough for Sarah is good enough for me.

J the Bible my mother left for me

j I treasure it always will be

j though it thread bear and worn

j since the day I was born

j it'd been such a comfort to me

well, that's it.

I have called everybody now.

Either Scott didn't make it into town at all,

or he simply just vanished off the face of the earth.

Why don't you try Sarah again

and see if she got to work yet.

Yeah, she should've been there almost an hour ago.

It's strange she hasn't been at home either.

Gary, I just don't understand all this.

Well, there is one very plausible explanation.

Sarah met Scott.

Sarah and Scott developed an instant rapport.

Sarah and Scott went off to Vegas to get married.

Mystery solved.

Not funny.

Sorry.

Well, this isn't helping me to find merv.

I better check the house and see if he's there.

You know, Jill, you are welcome to come

and stay at my house, if you want.

You can sleep in the spare room.

There's clean sheets on the bed and everything.

Oh, I can't leave the house right now.

Scott's gotta be somewhere out there.

I mean, he might call for help or something.

It's really nice of you though, Gary.

But under the circumstances, I just better not.

Well, you're the boss.

You know, I think, I'm beginning to develop

a sixth sense for trouble involving you.

If you need any help just whistle.

Yeah.

Oh, mother dear, where are you?

Jill.

Here we go.

Here we go.

Who's your lover boy now?

Who's your lover boy now?

Who's the lover boy now?

No!

Jill!

Jill!

Oh, my god my poor Jill.

Jill, come on.

Come on, just stay over.

It's alright, Jill.

It's all right.

It's all right.

I love you, Jill.

It's alright, Jill.

I love you, Jill, settle down.

Come here.

It's alright, Jill.

I'm here, Jill.

Shh, shh, shh.

Scott.

Scott.

Gary, you're crazy!

You're crazy get away from me!

No, Jill, I look after you now.

Gary, don't make me hate you.

I love you like a brother.

No, matter what I do I'll get the bastard

who did this to you. - Scott, please.

Scott where are you. - I love you, Jill,

and I always have.

Leave me alone!

I understand.

I know how much you love me.

But I belong to someone else now.

I'm sorry.

Next to him and my folks you're the one

that I care most about in the world.

I know, Jill, I love you too.

Please, Gary, just leave me.

I've gotta work all this out.

I won't be far away.

Now what to say?

What'll he say?

Will he react?

Oh, no, no, no.

I gotta go.

I gotta do it.

I gotta take it easy.

Mervon.

Don't be afraid.

I won't hurt you.

I just want you to come with me.

I want to show you something that's all.

I really don't have time right now, merv.

Later perhaps.

Where's Gary?

Please come it won't take long.

Gary, doesn't know, you see.

Don't come any closer, merv.

What is wrong with you?

Don't you understand I have to do this.

You have to know.

There are things you must see.

Got to know.

Dear Gary,

by the time you get this,

your father and I will be gone.

We knew the farm was failing,

and it wouldn't be saved.

The bank will take it from us.

There's nothing more to live for.

Your father wants to end it all,

and I cannot live without him.

We love you.

We are very sorry it had to end this way.

Mom and dad.

What.

They weren't really murdered at all.

They hanged themselves out of despair.

Gary was very clever.

He had to protect us.

He removed the barrel that papa stood on,

and made it look like murder.

That way people would feel sorry for us.

He told me that if I ever told anyone,

they'd put me in a home.

Mervon, are you in there?

Mervon!

Shh, shh, shh.

Be quiet.

Now he's coming back.

I didn't say anything.

Gary, honest engine, I didn't.

She was in here snooping around.

Gary, I promise I didn't tell anything.

Promise I didn't tell anything.

It's alright, merv.

No one's gonna hurt ya.

Just let go of Jill.

I've gotta try and get the

Stop, mervon.

You gotta stop.

Oh, my god.

What have I done?

Gary, I didn't mean to kill him.

It's alright, Jill.

It's all so perfect.

It's so perfect.

Here we are, you and me

just like it was meant to be.

Just like old times the two of us alone needing each other.

I love you,

and you love me.

What are you saying?

You still don't understand.

There is no Scott.

There are no parents anymore.

There's only you and me and no one else.

We'll get married.

We'll have a family and a dog.

I'm sorry, Jill.

Maybe you don't like dogs.

Okay.

Okay, Gary.

But we've gotta do it real soon, all right.

Why don't I go home,

and I'll pack my bags

and I'll meet you in town somewhere.

I'll meet you at the station in front,

and we can elope.

And my parents don't even have to know about it.

God.

Stop.

What have you done to them?

Oh, my god.

Jill.

Sarah!

Oh, my god!

I'm sorry, Jill.

I really haven't enjoyed doing this.

I want you to understand that.

Scott.

Scott.

Sarah.

Sarah.

No.

But now I've got to finish what I've started.

No!

You must see when you went away to college

I felt very lonely for a long time,

and I never got over it.

And then mom and dad lost the farm,

and my life changed again.

I only had mervon left.

I mean, I know he was always a bit strange,

but he was my brother.

If only they hadn't slaughtered all the animals.

They were his friends.

Beulah in particular, she was special.

She used to follow him around like a puppy dog.

After that, he began to withdraw

into that clown world of his more and more

until he was only a clown and nothing else.

And then you came back with Scott,

and I knew it was hopeless.

Yes, I did.

Then I realized if you felt alone

and isolated like me,

you'd understand why I need you so much,

and begin to need me back.

But I guess that was just a foolish dream of mine.

But dreams do some true, Gary, they do.

We really can runaway together.

The police will find the bodies,

and they'll think that mervon did it.

They'll think that mervon killed us too

because we won't be here.

We'll be someplace else.

All we have to do is place the gun in mervon's hand.

They'll think that mervon killed us,

and then he killed himself.

I mean people already think he's so crazy.

It fits so well.

Then it'll just be you and me together at last.

That's what you want, Gary, isn't it?

That's what I want.

I really do love you, Gary.

I really do.

You're making this very difficult, Jill.

You're always getting yourself in trouble, Jill,

and I'm always having to get you out.

You lied to me back there.

Why do people always have to lie.

Mervon will get better again.

Just you wait and see.

Mommy loves you, Gary.

I'll always be there when you need me, do you hear?

You're better off without her, Gary.

Better off without her.

Mervon never lied.

The animals they won't betray you, Gary.

If you care for them, they'll care for you.

Pigs especially.

People always say that they're dirty and disgusting.

But all the time it's the people themselves

who are dirty and disgusting.

No.

No.

God, give me the strength to kill you.

Somehow I shall have to face life without you, Jill.

It won't be easy, believe me,

but I have no choice.

How rude of me

I forgot to say goodbye.

Goodbye, angel.

Mervon.

I had to do it, Gary.

You won't let them put me away, will ya?

I'll get this.

Jill.
