Chosen from among all others by the immortal elders Solomon, Hercules,

Atlas, Zeus, Achilles, Mercury, Billy Batson and his mentor travel the

highways and byways of the land on a never-ending mission to right wrongs, to

develop understanding, and to seek justice for all.

In time of dire need, young Billy has been granted the power by the immortals

to summon awesome forces at the utterance of a single word.

A word which transforms him in a flash into the mightiest of mortal beings.

Captain Marvel!

Covered in ten miles.

There you go.

You have a good time, huh?

Wait a minute, wait a minute, wait a minute.

Didn't you have a good ride?

A little shy, huh?

Look, Mr. Eaton. Wait a minute.

I got something that just might change that.

Hey, come here.

Come here.

Look at this.

How about that?

Cute little fella.

I'm sorry, son.

A dog is a big responsibility, and I think we both agree you're not ready for

that.

I'm sorry. I didn't mean any harm.

Your boy, he's a quiet one, isn't he?

I mean, he does talk, doesn't he?

No.

Could you just give me my change, please?

Yeah. I'm sorry.

Good. Thank you.

Just so there's no misunderstanding, the loser does the dishes?

I feel like I'm being set up.

Thought that was our agreement.

The elders.

And just in time, too.

fleet and strong and wise, appear before my seeking eyes.

You'll make a fine chess player, Billy. You have great patience, and you think

before you act.

Thank you, sir.

Those are things I've learned from all of you.

Well said, Billy, but learning them is not enough. You must also teach them.

But it won't be easy, for there are those who speak but do not hear, and

those who hear but do not speak.

I'm not sure.

You will believe. You will.

He'd better eat up. Your puppy's already on second.

What's your name, son?

You know, I had a puppy when I was your age.

Of course, he wasn't as good-looking as yours, but he was quite a dog.

I taught my dog to roll over and shake hands.

Can your dog do any tricks?

No?

I'm glad you can understand me.

Now help me to understand you.

Your puppy trusts me.

How about you trusting me too?

I'll go and call your daddy right now.

Everything's going to be all right.

Mr.

Winstead? Yes.

My name is Mentor.

This is Billy Batson.

How are you?

He found your son out there on those rocks.

Yes, in the water.

Thank you.

Art's never run away before.

Hello, sir.

Are you all right?

Want to get your things?

It's a fine son you got there, Mr. Winstead.

Yes, he is.

And the name is Sam.

Thanks for your help.

Mr. Winstead.

Sam.

Has Howard always been unable to talk?

No.

He used to be just like any other boy.

Played second base.

You'd hear him yelling two blocks away.

Two months ago, they began putting up an apartment building near our house.

There was a lot of construction going on. I told Howard not to play there. It

was dangerous.

A few days later, he didn't come home for dinner. I went looking for him.

I found him.

He had talked his friends into going back to the building.

One of them had fallen into a trench and the dirt had caved in on him.

We dug him out. He was all right.

Howard wasn't.

He felt responsible for what had happened. He hasn't spoken since.

Let's go, son.

Thanks again for your help.

Oh, and about your shirt. Hey, that's okay. Let him keep it.

Won't be long before it'll fit him.

You take care of yourself, Howard.

And the next time we meet, I expect to see some really fine tricks from that

dog of yours.

That's not Howard's dog.

We just borrowed him.

Now we're taking him back.

I'm sure you used to have some fun here.

Remember when you thought ghosts were in ghost town?

I must have told you a hundred stories about this old place.

Come on, let's take a walk. For old times' sake.

Looks like an old mining shaft.

Now I'm getting closer.

Looks a little shaky.

Look at that old building over there.

Let's go take a look at that.

Now you stay right there.

I'll get him, son.

I understand.

The way you feel about that puppy is the way I feel about you.

Now you go over there and stay.

me, son.

I'm all right.

Go for help. Don't be frightened, but go now.

Find Billy and measure and bring them back.

What are you doing here?

Where's your father?

No, no, wait just a second.

Something's wrong.

Seconds may count.

Holy moly.

I sure am glad to see you. Thank you, son, for that.

Now, let's get out of here.

More than just how to speak again.

I think he's found out that often out of love and devotion, parents have to say

no to their children.

Yes, and when they do, they usually have a very good reason.

You better go get your dog.

Yes, your dog.

I'll be picking my wife up at the airport.

Quite a surprise for her.

I'd be honored if you two and Billy would share it with us.

Oh, thank you, Sam.

But I think this is one of those times when a family should just share each

other.

We understand, Sam.

Have you got a good name for him?

How about Spot?

Okay, I'm by then.

You know, mentor, if I didn't know you better, I'd say that you have a tear in

your eye.

That's ridiculous.

Look, cinder, possibly.

But a tear?
