roll tape mr. Matthews

yeah as the district attorney what makes

you so sure that you can secure on

indictments against our Kane industries

or its president because I'm not in our

Kane's pocket I don't plan to roll over

and play dead like so many of my

predecessors yes but our King says that

your accusations are nothing more than

fodder for campaign headlines we can

call them what he likes but I'm going

after him warrants subpoenas the works a

month from now he won't have a secret or

a deal that I don't know about and you

can quote me on that thank you I'm gonna

kill him you can't do anything to the

district attorney everyone would know

to skin a cat

I'll simply find someone to do the job

on District Attorney Matthews for me

someone who couldn't possibly be

connected with me I'll get Swamp Thing

the swamp is my world it is Who I am it

is what I am I was once a man I know the

evil then - do not bring your evil here

know when I've had more fun or better

luck well you just leave those of me and

it's here I know it's here

what's the matter in the places where I

still dream I saw it so what are you

talking to the roots a tangle of roots

part of the bio restorative material was

blown out into the swamp the night of

the explosion so what if you find it

I'll be able to encode my own DNA

regenerate without is a plant as a human

again

what's this duckweed

well did I mention that Tressa plays

correspondence chess with 10 or 12

inmates over the state penitentiary doc

scratch I'd love another cup of coffee

could I get a cup of coffee do you think

I have a 9 Trudy Oh dr. Cain no of

course please won't you join us I'm

afraid I can't have tables waiting I

just wanted to stop by in a spirit of

good faith

mr. Matthews this is for you and your

friends it's our latest vintage we

haven't even named it yet

I've always liked shut enough to swamp

gas mr. Matthews I've instructed my

staff to cooperate with you in any way

they can we have nothing to hide at

arcane industries noted well if you'll

excuse us then well should I get a

waiter over here and open this vintage

let it breathe no I don't accept bribes

however I do think we all could use a

little fresh air yes

what are you doing here

I brought you something to eat Abigail I

work in a restaurant but you eat like a

while to goat now I'm not letting you go

back to work until you eat this what are

you looking at I don't know you got

something on your face here look in the

mirror I'll show you

no I guess you're right I was cleaning

the oven so you're gonna try my food

okay sure okay I don't know what am I

here no this is the kind of night makes

you yearn for a concise long goodbye on

the front porch dancing with a girl you

just met that night sprayed somebody's

gonna cut in spoil them at

I'll go get the car why don't you two

just wait there that's it's quite a

character we have there oh yeah they

don't make them like that anymore

candlelit dinner at Hugo's followed by a

moonlight stroll by the waterfront they

got good doctor may be trying to turn

this into a date between you and me

wouldn't be the first time he's done

something like this what does that make

you angry you bet this time I just might

have to owe him

the examination wasn't thorough but I

can assure you he felt no pain neck was

broken quickly

why did doctors always think that quick

death is comforting to people maybe

because we've seen enough long-term

suffering to know the difference no all

I know is I'm terrified that creature

still out there somewhere

I've seen him he was headed for the

swamp I say we go after him anybody

wants to join me meet it's kill it's

cafe in half an hour it'll track him

down kill him if we have to well that

worked out very well certainly dramatic

enough fancy a bit of cheesecake

at last

long long last

who are you me you

I'm all the worst of you I've never seen

myself quite so clearly that what I look

like

horrible isn't it they still want to

pull the covers and hide what are you a

killer who enjoyed it I came this is our

Cannes worth then this is mine

you're bleeding you're not have plans

you're a mutant

you're everything our kid said you'd be

arcane he promised you we'd reverse the

mutation process didn't he there were

another thousand dollars from my

troubles spend it fast you'll be dead in

a week

you must think I'm stupid point for a

trick like that

Oh your body can't tell which part of

you is human and which part is mutant

it's trying to destroy the whole

organism good try I almost believe you

said I came doesn't make mistakes okay

the genie Oh

you're worried someone you care about is

in trouble aren't you

yeah well someone I did care back I

don't know I can't figure it out it

shouldn't be that hard well shouldn't

know well why don't you just read my

mind tell me what I'm looking for so

I've been out here for hours and I've

got nothing to show for it

I can't read minds well it's more like I

stumble across a memory and then it's

gone what is with you Abigail you

stumble into dreams and across memories

I need a scorecard for all your

accidents hmm why don't you just wait

inside I'm gonna be out for hours

looking for duckweed what you're looking

for duckweed tiny green plants wait why

in the world would you think duck we

would be growing out here you're not

making any wait a minute duck weed the

only duck weed growing in the footprints

they're not his

he didn't kill anybody he didn't kill

anybody who didn't your friend if they

were his it would be duckweed growing in

the footprint think you haven't gal

read over charlie readout firepower we

can get

the townspeople are pretty serious I

think they're going into the swamp to

look for the killer well that's as it

should be

the citizens of humor have every right

to protect themselves what if they find

what they're looking for what they'll

find is the twisting charred remains a

creature too badly burned to be

identified our mutant will die a most

inelegant death I'm afraid if he hasn't

already yeah it's more pieces to begin

with to reverse the mutation too quickly

will cause your cell walls to splinter

apart

no it's direct the trick is arcades

perfect crime you kill Eric Matthews and

you end up burned to death in your own

blood you're trying to save me you're

closer to regeneration than I am I have

a whole formula to work out for myself

it could take years of my own salvation

I mean this curse really for you it's go

who needs it when they need it most

well sorry good starting again it's too

light here eat this there's something I

should tell you enough say there's no

time no I have to tell you this

I know who you are dr. Holland I was one

of the men your laboratory when it blew

up

don't talk yourself out of a miracle I'm

warning you

now you guys know where we're going and

you know what we got to do so let's get

after it know if this is gonna stop well

why are you doing this a very decent man

was killed tonight by something horrible

and brutal and if the people of this

town want to go out there and catch it

then I say let them you don't know what

you're talking about it's far from Eric

when he was murdered you shouldn't be

trying to figure out how to stop this

mob you should be trying to help them

that mob

they're after the wrong you're gonna

have to trust me on this one no Tressa

please well they're almost to the bridge

well I don't think the barricades gonna

work yeah well I think there's one thing

that just might stop and give me some

gas from the bowties oh no will not your

truck you worked so hard I can always

get another truck I can't always get

another friend get the gas hurry

well you got five seconds to get that

piece of junk out of there you people

your warning

alright guys bust one of those trucks

through

take us

get out of here that thing's gonna blow

any second

well look what is it I kill Eric

Matthews and I almost killed again

tonight

but instead someone stop me even save my

life to that man I leave you this for

your future I'm not going to use it

we'll give me my green

before the real killer

this filament

there's a reporter just about enough of

this madman give me that

there we are

it's deputy Javits

I'm have to wash dishes for the rest of

my life to get enough money together to

buy another truck I smell like soap and

jamba life forever that man who was shot

he wasn't your friend was he no my

friend was is someone else someone that

I hope can find his own peace

trying to see your reflection at the

government house they wouldn't let me

have mirrors

they said they weren't good for us

it's an old trick make you feel you know

good

I had this hockey coach in high school

used to do that great way to keep us

from feeling like individuals the truth

is I don't really care

sure you do we all do she don't need a

mirror to tell you if you're any good

just look at me

looking at you

maybe someday this small piece of the

puzzle will bring me closer to

fulfilling my dream and becoming a man

again but until then I must keep on

searching
