Look, if you're going to carry that

thing, carry it the right way.

I want to carry it anyway.

You're going to blow your arm off.

It's not loaded.

It should be. I don't hear you can't be

too prepared.

I guess. Yeah.

Like those rabbits were after going to

jump us.

Beautiful.

Ay like it. It's a hawk.

Look at the markings. Maleficent.

Dad, they're protected. Yeah, I learned

a long time ago. You see something you

want, you reach right out and you take

it down.

Alec. Alec, what's going on?

the Swamp is my world. It is who I am.

It is what I am. I was once a man. I

know the evil men do. Do not bring your

evil here. I warn you. Beware the wrath

of

Swamp Thing.

All

right. He's got to be around here

somewhere. He couldn't have flown very

far.

Can't believe I missed.

Oh, yeah. We all have bad days. Can Can

we go now? It'll be dark soon.

Jason, until you learn about the

patience of the hunt, you're never going

to be anything. There is a lot more in

life than just a just an easy kill.

Alec. Alec, where are you?

Here, Will.

Alec,

uh,

I I got this problem. It's driving me

nuts.

I heard shots

and then sounds like I've never heard

before. Screams.

And then my my sight.

The sounds like nature crying out.

Yeah. Yeah, that's it. Exactly. How do I

make it stop?

Well, listen to me carefully. This will

be hard to understand. The swamp has

taken you in. It's allowed you to hear

and see what I live with every day.

But why?

What is the swamp giving you? What do

you feel?

Awful. I hate this.

It won't be very pleasant at first, but

tell me what's in your heart.

Something's injured.

An animal.

A a bird of sorts.

Yes, a hawk. A very rare one. Hunters

have attacked it and it's dying. The

swamp is opening up so that you can help

me find it.

I got to be honest with you.

I'm not crazy about this.

That's of no concern to nature, Will.

So, how do I make it work?

You must let go of everything, Will. All

of your normal human instincts. The

swamp will guide you as it needs, but

you must trust it to show you the way.

Skyline Delta Hawk. And you're right, it

is a very rare species. In fact, this

female,

it is a female, by the way,

could be the last.

And as you already probably know, it

does reside on what is mostly my land.

But unfortunately for you, you're here

as a guest to discuss a very important

business deal, not trapesing off into

the forest to uh shoot wildlife. Dr.

Arcana also came down here to spend a

little time with my son, to teach him a

few things.

Right now seems like as good a time as

any to start.

There's no better teacher than Anton

Arcane. Mr. Crown, I can assure you.

Son in business. It always pays to have

a strategy. You also have to be able to

change that strategy at a moment's

notice. Now, Dr. Arcane here has just

made the opening bid to fund his new

project.

Oh, you overestimate my subtlety, Crown.

Why don't we stop the soft just talk?

You need money for your cold fusion

experiment. What we haven't addressed is

what you have that I want. Fantastic

return on your dollar should I succeed.

The hawk.

You've already offered it. I accept.

As you said, it is on your land.

Then what are you talking about? It's

the last one of its kind.

Therefore, it's worth a lot more than

just money.

You'd be killing off an entire species.

Tell him.

Oh, yes, he would.

Quite a trophy, though.

It's not just a bird. It's a phenomenon.

And who better to possess it than Adam

Crown? Now you're talking. Do we have a

deal?

Amazing, isn't it?

It's incredible.

It's like I'm seeing things for the

first time.

I just wish I knew what to do with it.

Take a handful of water.

I can't believe it. It's alive.

If people only knew how much life exists

in every square inch.

All those times you were trying to teach

me about the swamp and its power.

It's all so clear now.

How come it took me so long to

understand?

Because your mind was being restrained

by the prejudice of being human. This is

a gift given to only a few.

Will, we must find the Hawk.

You think I'm up to it?

Only you know that,

right? Okay. Okay. Trust the swamp.

Relax. Picture the wind. Picture the

wind.

Do it.

Fix the wind.

I can see it.

I can feel it. Whatever.

Wait a minute.

There's something else.

The hunters, they're back.

I'll go on ahead.

Go easy. Will

college never prepared you for this, did

it, Jason? Huh? You know what this is

all about, don't you? Hunting down a

defenseless creature.

Yeah. Is it fun?

No. It's about becoming a man. Time for

you to square those shoulders and kick

some of that college crap out of you.

Keep talking, Dad. You're really winning

me over.

Oh, get smart with me, Jason. Can't you

see I'm trying to reach you?

Got a lot of lost time to try and make

up.

Well, I didn't need college. I don't

think you did either. You were going to

join me at the office right out of high

school. Learn the business from the

ground up.

Well, mom sure didn't think so. Well,

your mother forgets. At 16, I was on the

docks loading trucks. Damn foreman gave

me a lot of crap. But by God, I hung in

there. Time I was 24, I bought that

place and I fired his butt. Yeah. Then

you turned it into a parking lot,

putting everyone out of a job.

Yeah, I know. That's life.

It's survival of the fittest. Jason,

your mother was a great little woman,

but there are some things that you can

only be taught by your father.

Like this.

Yeah, Jason, like this. It's not just

the hunted. It's what it represents. It

goes all the way back to the pioneers

putting food on their table. It's a

matter of survival.

It's about power, Dad. I wish you'd stop

pretending it's about anything else.

Well, let's just wait and see. Until

that first kill that always brings out

the predator in a man. I know. Believe

me.

Jason, it's just one damn bird.

Who the hell is going to know?

Who's going to care? The tragedy is that

you don't.

Wait a minute. You're not.

You're looking for it, too.

You're a mate.

Don't knock power, Jason. I not only

paid your tuition, made you a big shot

on campus. Not a big shot. You're my

son.

That's what sets you apart.

Dad, I really don't want to be here. I

think we're wasting our time.

I don't believe it. It It's not wounded.

No.

No, it's not the same one.

Don't be afraid. I'm here to help.

Stay away from the hawk. It's an

endangered species.

Oh, really? I didn't know that. But I

got $500 in my pocket. Says that hawk is

fair game. Mister, you don't belong in

the swamp.

Dad, please.

Look, I always get what I go after. I

don't know who the hell you think you

are, but you know what's good for you?

You're going to get out of my way

now.

Run, run.

You never stand up before me again.

Help

me.

Jason, where do you think you're going?

I'm going to help him.

No, you're coming with me.

You can't be serious. You just shot

someone. It's

his own damn fault. Look, I'm not

leaving the swamp without that hawk.

Anything for the nobility of the hunt,

huh? Dad, what a joke. Comparing

yourself to pioneers who hunted to feed

their families. A beautiful animal

something to mount on the wall and

you're willing to shoot another human

being to get it.

It's not about the hunt is a death. It's

about the pleasure of killing. That's

the only lesson you've taught me today.

Oh, I don't like that look on your face,

Graeme. It's negative. And right now, I

don't need anything negative in my life.

Now, buzz off.

I'm afraid this can't be helped. Doctor,

background check on Adam Crown was a

little late in coming through.

Oh my god. I don't believe it. It's

true, sir. He overextended his grocery

warehouse holdings and finally caught up

with him. He's broke.

He's also a bloody liar.

Can't you ever bring me any good news,

Graeme? I mean, is it too much to ask?

I do.

God, I'm sorry. That guy's insane.

He's my father. He won't let up until he

gets that hawk. Look, I'm fine.

Just stop him.

Stop him.

Alec,

the swamp will take care of you. Will,

trust the swamp.

Right. Fix the wind.

Fix the wind.

Fix the wind.

The swamp will heal. You will.

What about the hawk?

The boy Jason? He's the key.

You think you're going to distract me,

Hawk?

Oh, no. Not this time. No way.

My friend will be all right, but your

mate needs you.

Go to her.

No. Put it down, Dad. This time you're

not getting what you're after.

Oh, no. No.

I'm going to stop you.

I wrote the book on bluffing. You're

just an amateur.

You're not going to shoot me.

Yeah,

you're right. The question is, will you

kill me?

Move. I'm not bluffing this time.

Don't you ever touch me again.

Jason, wait a minute.

You didn't wimp out on me out there.

Look, I uh I may have acted a bit

irrationally. I'm not making any

apologies now. I'll just have to admit

that maybe I picked the wrong example to

try to set.

No, just the opposite. You set the right

example.

You stood up to me out there. Believe it

or not, that made me proud.

You don't get it. You failed.

What came out of me back there was

always in me. What came out of you was

always in you, too.

I was just another conquest in a long

string of victories. No, I was the

conquest, wasn't I? The ultimate

affirmation.

Make me someone like you and feel that

everything you've done in your life was

right.

You know the funny thing?

I came out here because I believed you.

I thought that maybe there was some

common ground we could connect on.

We have nothing. We have each other.

Son, you're all I have left.

You still have your business empire and

your future conquests.

I'm afraid you're wrong about that.

Hello, Crown.

Snare your pigeon. Did you

let it rest, Arcane? We'll talk about it

in the morning.

No, I don't think we'll talk tomorrow

morning or any other morning. Why should

I converse with someone who's totally

corrupt?

Corrupt? I checked his entire portfolio,

and it's a sham. There is no investment

funding for Dr. Hurricane's cold fusion.

Seems your father overexpanded himself

too quickly. His business failed this

week. There isn't enough money to buy a

decent stick of gum.

I should really have you shot for

wasting my time.

But doctor, you can't kill him.

Too many people know he's your guest.

Yes. Well, thank you so much for that,

Graeme. You do it.

So, I guess you're back to square one.

Nothing. No business. I don't care about

that. The question is, are we back to

square one?

Can we start again? I mean, I know I

can.

I don't think so, Dad.

You see, like that hawk,

I've just been set free.

go in peace.

Heat. Heat.
