[THEME MUSIC PLAYING]
[BELL TOLLING]
-Good morning, Mr. Roarke. -Good morning, Lawrence.
[GIGGLING AND CHATTERING]
Smiles, everyone. Smiles.
[♪♪♪♪♪]
LAWRENCE: Mr. Mickey Masterson.
Now, there's a gentleman who needs no introduction.
Yes, his comedy show was rated number one
for many, many years.
LAWRENCE: I can't say I've seen much of him lately, however.
ROARKE: In the entertainment business, Lawrence,
one rarely stays on top indefinitely.
LAWRENCE: Sad, but true.
And now he plans to officially retire.
Mr. Masterson's fantasy is to do one last show and go out,
as they say, with a bang.
Sounds simple enough.
Ah, but you see, this show is to reunite him
with two former colleagues
who meant the most to his career.
LAWRENCE: I seem to detect a slight problem.
ROARKE: Quite possibly.
They are two people
who haven't laid eyes on him in years.
Each for a very special reason.
LAWRENCE: What a determined looking child.
Surely she's not here for a fantasy.
ROARKE: Well, that's precisely what she's here for, Lawrence.
At her tender age? Really, sir.
Unfortunately, tragedy doesn't respect age,
tender or otherwise. You see, Miss Laurie Shannon
lost both her parents in an accident
just two months ago.
LAWRENCE: Poor child.
What are we going to do about it, sir?
-Grant her fantasy, of course. -Which is?
To find God and ask Him face-to-face
how He could do such a thing.
My dear guests, I am Mr. Roarke, your host.
Welcome to Fantasy Island.
[♪♪♪♪♪]
ROARKE: Well, Laurie, is your bungalow comfortable?
Anything you want or need?
LAURIE: It's very nice, Mr. Roarke.
Thank you.
LAURIE: But all I want is my fantasy.
Yes.
To find God.
Are you sure you'd recognize Him if you were to meet Him?
LAURIE: I hope so.
And anyway, you did tell my guardians
I could have my fantasy.
Right?
Yes, I did.
So I think I already know who He is.
Why did you kill my mother and father?
No, I'm not what you're searching for, Laurie.
But look at you. You're all dressed in white,
and you have a sort of shining all around you.
And you make people's fantasies come true.
I am very fortunate
that I can sometimes bring happiness to others, yes.
But what you're looking for, Laurie, is different.
He is everywhere and nowhere.
And very, very difficult to find.
You'll have to keep looking.
It won't be this easy, you understand.
You'll find what you seek, though,
when and where you least expect it.
But I promise you this...
you'll know when you do find Him.
Then I guess I better get started.
MICKEY: Outrageous.
Outrageous.
That means he loves it, Lawrence.
Oh? Oh.
May I freshen your drink, Mr. Masterson?
Oh, thank you very, very much.
The climate does make you thirsty.
But keep it virgin, I'm not too big on the sauce
-when I'm working. -Yes, sir.
Mr. Roarke, it seems like I'm always working.
I'm not ashamed to say it.
Audiences cannot get enough of me.
Of course, Vegas is no picnic, mind you,
but it's not anything like the crazy pace of television.
That's why I finally turned my back on television.
No, sir, Vegas.
Oh, boy, I love Vegas.
How they love me in Vegas.
What a night. What a night. [CHUCKLES]
As I look into your faces,
and some of your faces need looking into...
I feel great, I really do.
You know I love Las Vegas because...
Yeah, how they love me.
Isn't it difficult to retire from such admiration?
Oh, maybe, but I say
a man should quit when he's on top.
-That's what I believe. -Your drink, sir.
-Virgin. -Thank you very much.
Martha and Walter arrived, didn't they?
Oh, to be sure.
Bringing Miss Holly and Mr. Dunlap
to Fantasy Island wasn't difficult.
However, I can in no way make decisions for them.
There remains a possibility
they may not wish to do the show.
No chance.
Oh, I admit they may not enjoy the idea at first.
But when that curtain goes up,
they'll be right there beside me.
We were a team you just couldn't beat.
Oh, I remember well.
In fact, it does seem a shame that you ever broke up
in the first place.
Well, it was the, um...
the pressure I was talking about.
Martha and Walter understood
how it was, you know what I mean?
But even if they're holding a little grudge
because I stayed on top and they didn't...
don't worry, I'll square it with them.
Mr. Roarke, don't you worry about a thing.
It's gonna be great.
Absolutely outrageous.
[♪♪♪♪♪]
MAN: This is my place. Get out!
Are you-- Are you God?
Yes, I am.
This place doesn't look much like heaven,
all these cactuses and sharp pointed things.
I made it that way to keep funny-faced people like you out.
-Now get. -I came to ask you a question.
People don't ask God questions.
Didn't your folks teach you anything at all?
They taught me lots of things,
but you killed them in that accident.
That's what I've come to ask you. Why did you do it?
Uh, I...
I don't allow that kind of question.
Well, I'm not leaving until you answer it.
Look, kid, what you're asking isn't easy to answer.
-Not even for me. -If you're God...
-you know why you did it. -Well, sure I do.
But it takes a lot of thinking on my part to answer
so that you will understand what I'm saying.
-You know what I mean? -No.
I do things differently than ordinary mortals
like you for different reasons.
[STAMMERING]
Well, I'll tell you what.
You go away and you come back this afternoon
and by that time
I'll have figured out how to explain it to you.
-Okay? -I don't know why
you can't explain it to me now.
Blast it, kid, will you stop arguing with God?
Now, get out of here before I change my mind.
Okay, but you better be here.
You've got a colossal nerve inviting me to your bungalow
to ask me to do a show with you.
You hate me that much?
Every time I think about what happened between us...
it hurts.
Martha...
you ever think about the good times at all?
Now and then.
Well, I do too. A lot.
Come on, sweet pea, I didn't know until right now...
how badly I've missed you.
I bet.
Tell me one reason why I should do your show.
Money.
I don't need your money.
I am doing just fine.
I have my other work. I sell things.
-You mean, like commercials? -Yeah, commercials.
People come up to me, want to talk about the old days,
ask for my autograph.
Talk about all the shows I've starred in.
Wouldn't you just love to try
our brand-new, tasty, yummy spread?
It's-- It's a treat.
I-- I promise.
So nobody can say I'm not appreciated.
Will you just listen, please?
I know how bad I hurt you, sweet pea,
but maybe what you don't know is that I hurt me, too.
There were things that I could have said
to make it easier for you, but I didn't know the words.
Didn't know them.
And I guess I still don't.
Anyway, Martha...
I need you.
I'm talking about one last show and about how deeply grateful
I'd be if you would do it with me.
Damn you.
Of course, I'll do your lousy show.
Sweet Pea.
LAURIE: Mr. Roarke, Mr. Roarke.
Mr. Roarke.
Mr. Roarke, I've been looking all over for you.
Well, Laurie, I was getting worried.
I was just about to send out a search party for you.
I think I found Him.
-Maybe. -You mean...
God, of course.
He's not exactly what I expected.
-Sort of scruffy, you know. -Ah, scruffy, you say?
Yeah. And He said He'd answer my question this afternoon.
Oh, did he? Excellent.
Well, there is no reason you shouldn't enjoy yourself
-in the meantime. -I guess not.
ROARKE: So why don't you go to the house and tell Lawrence
I said to give you anything you want, huh?
All right. Thank you.
-Mr. Roarke. -Mr. Adam Cobb.
I rather expected a visit from you.
I'll bet you did the way you messed up my fantasy,
letting that little kid violate my privacy.
Well, I'm sorry, Mr. Cobb.
I was to be left strictly alone for the whole weekend.
But Laurie is only a child. Surely the few moments
of your time she took can't possibly--
It's not just the time-- Things got involved.
I had to stall her off but she's coming back
to pester me again.
Well, the role you so humbly undertook
does have a certain universal attraction, doesn't it?
That's neither here nor there.
It was her idea. She sort of forced it on me.
Oh, I understand.
And you certainly do have the right
to your privacy, of course.
After all, in time Laurie will get over her tragic loss.
And she does have the benefits of her family fortune
to assure her future happiness.
Family fortune? Uh-- Family fortune?
Yes, poor little rich girl.
The only heir to all that responsibility.
Imagine.
-Yeah, poor little kid. -[SIGHS]
But don't worry, Mr. Cobb, I'll see to it
she doesn't bother you again.
Mr. Roarke, we can't be selfish
about this poor little girl.
-Yes. -I'll think up an answer
to her question, don't you worry.
I'll be waiting right there for her.
You just stay out of it, okay?
If that's the way you want it, Mr. Cobb, of course.
Yeah.
[SIGHS] Of course.
ROARKE: How did your meeting go with Miss Holly?
Oh, fine. Great.
She absolutely jumped at the chance.
Had to beat her off me with a stick.
[LAUGHS] How wonderful.
I must admit I did have certain doubts.
I knew all along
there was nothing to worry about.
Well, I hope things go as well with your friend, Mr. Dunlap.
[LAUGHING]
I didn't-- Even know he was here.
-Oh? -You mean Walter?
Don't worry. Why should he be different?
I'll get him in the show.
Watch this.
[IMITATING FANFARE]
Mickey?
No, Irving-- Of course it's Mickey.
-Hey. -Hey, Walter, you old tiger,
you look terrific.
It's been a while, huh.
[IMITATING FANFARE]
-You know what I'm thinking of? -Huh?
-1943, the scene we did. -Yeah.
You're the Sergeant and you say--
I said, "Stand at attention, Soldier."
And I said, "I am at attention, sir.
It's my uniform that's at ease."
[LAUGHING]
You look great.
-Really, you look in the pink. -Yeah, you do, too.
I mean, not a day older.
Ten years older maybe...
-But not a day. -...but not a day.
Still doing shtick, huh?
You know, you look ready for opening night.
Oh, that's 'cause I keep busy.
As a matter of fact, this is the first time in years
that I have taken time off to play a little.
-Time off from what, pal? -Work.
Of course, it's not the real big time.
But I love it.
I don't know how to tell you this, but...
I'm doing one last show Saturday and then I'm hanging it up.
You know, I'd love for you to do the show with me,
the last one for the road.
How about it?
Gee, I don't know, Mickey.
-Martha's agreed to be in it. -She did?
When's rehearsal?
3:00 p.m.
Fantasy Island theater.
You got a deal. You got a deal.
Terrific.
Outrageous. Outrageous!
See you, baby.
Piece of cake.
Some guys just beg for the sky to fall in on them,
right, Mr. Roarke?
-You mean Mr. Masterson? -You got it.
I'm gonna bury that bum.
Give me a double bourbon.
Well, Miss Laurie, what's it going to be?
The amusement park with all sorts of exciting rides.
Or, if you prefer, there's horseback riding,
there's swimming, there's boating.
-Oh, look. -LAWRENCE: How about
the ice cream parlor? Forty flavors.
Or the game room with all those Pac people.
I knew I could depend on you, Lawrence.
What, sir?
For finding the perfect entertainment for Laurie.
-A puppy, of course. -Puppy?
-[PUPPY WHIMPERING] -Oh, that puppy.
ROARKE: Ah, a child's special gift, Lawrence,
to love God's creations above all of man's inventions.
LAWRENCE: With all of Fantasy Island at her feet,
her idea of fun is to have something to love.
ROARKE: And to have something love her.
MICKEY: Strut, strut-- Oh, person.
Wait a minute. This is ridiculous.
-We need Walter. -Of course.
Where's Walter?
He's here, that's where. [CHUCKLES]
Walter, baby, you're late.
Yeah, Walter's always late, remember?
Are you ready to work or not?
Say the word, oh, master.
All right, get up here on the stage.
Here's what we're gonna do. [CLEARS THROAT]
We'll open up with the stand-up routine
in front of the curtain.
And then, pow! A big song and dance number
for the finish of the act. You understand?
Let's, uh, let's line up.
Could you just back up just a little?
I'm gonna count off. I want to see if you remember.
I'll count off. You know, It's four in a bar
Five, six, seven, eight. [HUMMING]
Good.
Left. [HUMMING]
[SCATTING AND LAUGHING]
You used to say I was upstaging you.
It drove you up the wall. Here, look at this one.
Hup. Hup!
Look familiar, huh? [LAUGHS]
You want to tell me what this is all about?
Sure, pal. Sure.
It's about loyalty...
friendship...
professional respect.
None of which you know a damn thing about.
What are you trying to say?
First you dump Martha, then you dump me.
All out of your greedy need to hog the spotlight.
That's not true.
Well, I guess you know where you ended up without us, huh?
In the dumper, that's where.
And that's where you are now.
Do you think I don't read the papers?
Walter, maybe you shouldn't.
I wouldn't set foot on the stage with this creep
after what he did to me and my life and yours.
See this little lady, pal?
She worshipped you. You!
And there I was so much in love with her, I--
I could
live for days on a look, a smile.
-Walter, you never said a word. -Well I'm saying it now.
Let me tell you something,
I would have settled for one percent
of what she felt for you and you just threw her away.
I had no idea you felt that way.
What do you say, Martha?
Are you going to stop being used as a doormat
by this-- This...
[SCOFFS]
How 'bout it, Martha?
I'm-- I'm sorry, Mickey, I--
I wish I didn't believe it, but Walter's right.
Hey...
Good luck on your big show, old buddy.
You got the spotlight all to yourself.
Just like you love it.
[LAUGHS] So, little girl, you came back.
Of course. You told me to.
Yeah.
You don't think much of this place, do you?
LAURIE: It's weird.
ADAM: Well, it suited my mood when I created it.
I may leave it for Roarke to show people when I move on.
You know, I wouldn't mind hanging around Earth
for a year or two
if I found somebody I liked good enough to stay with.
You could stay with me.
You wouldn't kid God, would you?
Not if you answer my question and it makes me understand.
You mean about the accident and your parents?
Well, I've been thinking a lot about that, like I promised.
And, um...
I'll figure a way to explain it to you but--
But what?
Well, human beings don't understand
death very well, because they're not supposed to.
Now I'd like to do you a favor, but it's breaking the rules,
so it may take me a year...
or, uh, two for me to figure out how to do it.
Mr. Roarke said my fantasy would come true.
So I sort of believed you when you said you were God.
He said I wasn't?
No, but you don't act like God.
And you don't look like any painting I ever saw of Him.
Well, of course not. No artist ever made it to heaven
to see what I look like.
And who says that God can't look like
everybody else anyway? He-- I mean,
I made man according to His own image,
like the Good Book says.
-Remember? -I remember.
But you have to prove you're really God.
Come on, kid, there's no way to do that.
Yes, there is. Disappear.
-ADAM: What? -I saw it in a movie once.
If you're really God, you can disappear to prove it.
So disappear.
Maybe I don't feel like it.
Who are you to tell God what do anyway?
You won't disappear because you can't.
You're not God. You're not God at all.
Mr. Masterson?
Oh, hello, Mr. Roarke.
Hello. How is the show coming along?
I'm just mulling over my act.
I'm glad you're going ahead with your plans
despite your little difficulties.
Oh, you, uh, you heard what happened?
I make it my business to know
what happens on Fantasy Island, Mr. Masterson.
Of course.
Well, it's going to be the best show
I can manage to do.
A very admirable attitude indeed.
Let me level with you, Mr. Roarke...
I'm scared.
I'm scared of going up on that stage all alone
because my career's been going downhill for years.
And I was really good.
Once.
You were the very best, Mr. Masterson.
Thank you.
You see, I figured with Martha and Walter with me
like old times,
things would come back together for all of us.
But they both believe certain things about me
that are just not so.
And I never had the guts to tell 'em the truth.
Perhaps, now you will.
Perhaps, what really matters is that you make peace
with the past before you leave it behind for good.
You know?
Laurie, you're not thinking of leaving now?
Surely you can wait until the regular flight
leaves tomorrow, can't you?
What's the use? I'm not gonna find God.
Really, sir,
that old reprobate passing himself off as the deity?
-Insufferable. -Perhaps, Lawrence.
Now, why don't you take Miss Laurie's bag
to the plane dock?
Uh, you still insist on leaving?
I told you what you were looking for
was very difficult to find. Remember?
I also said you'd find it when and where you least expect it.
But all I found was a old phony.
Sit down, Laurie, sit down.
Try to understand.
All that lies behind us
and all that lies ahead of us in this life is nothing
compared to what lies within us now.
-Like what? -Like love,
compassion, understanding, forgiveness.
You mean forgive and understand that old man?
That old man, Mr. Adam Cobb,
a long time ago was a very famous circus clown.
Did you know that? Oh, yes.
And many, many years ago he also had a beautiful wife
and a daughter just about your age.
I don't want to hear about him. He lied to me.
Yes, he did.
All these years, he's lied to a lot of people.
But most of all to himself.
-How can he do that? -Let me explain.
There was a fire in the big tent one night...
and his wife was burned to death.
After that, Mr. Adam Cobb's life became a series of lies.
First, that he couldn't raise a daughter alone.
So he had her adopted.
Then that life wasn't worth living anymore,
so he tried to drink himself to death. And he's still trying.
And finally, that he was beyond loving
or being loved ever again.
I'm sorry all that happened, Mr. Roarke.
It must be terrible to feel like he does.
Yes. Terrible. Terrible.
-He does need help, doesn't he? -Indeed.
From someone who can understand...
and, uh... forgive...
perhaps?
[SIGHS]
All right, I'll try.
But it won't be easy.
Uh, hello, kid.
Where are you going?
Well, I got this big job offer.
They need a supervisor for the next Skylab and--
Do you know every time you tell a lie,
-your eye twitches? -What?
-It twitches. -Why don't you get lost?
I guess because I'm not afraid of you anymore.
That doesn't mean you can pester me.
-It's doing it again. -Never mind my blasted eye.
Look, uh...
about what I told you before. I didn't mean that I was...
exactly God.
Well, I've been thinking about that.
And what I think now is...
maybe God isn't just one person after all.
Maybe God is a little bit in every person.
-Even you. -Yeah, yeah.
Yeah, well, that's what I meant when I said, "Not exactly."
[LAUGHS]
LAURIE: You're really something else.
[BOTH LAUGHING]
ADAM: Wow.
Now, aren't you glad you didn't leave?
I guess I am.
This view may be the closest thing to heaven
I ever get.
Not if you don't want it to be.
What do you know? You're just a kid.
Oh.
That's the trouble with being young.
No one ever thinks what you say is important.
Oh, forget I said that.
Get right down to it,
maybe the only thing worse than being young like you is...
-being old like me. -How old are you, Mr. Cobb?
Well, I'm old enough that nobody alive remembers me
as a kid your age.
Not even me, Laurie.
You see, a man forgets.
Only a woman remembers things like that.
[INDISTINCT CHATTER]
Bourbon, soda. Well, well, well.
The great Mickey. And drinking! It's not even dark yet.
Oh, how you used to lecture us sinners about that.
There's nothing in it, Walter. Virgin.
Hey, you gonna wow 'em up there tonight
all by your lonesome, huh?
Listen, I'd hang around and watch the show,
but I haven't got the heart to watch you suffer that way.
Here's your drink, sir.
Yeah, your drink.
Walter mustn't go even ten minutes without his drink.
-What the hell are you saying? -Why do you think I fired you?
Because you were jealous of every laugh I ever got.
Are you that far gone?
It never sunk in
that you couldn't remember half the routines?
Your own doctor came to me and said
that if you tried keeping up this pace,
in your condition, you'd kill yourself.
Here's your booze.
That's where you should have poured it, on the outside.
Mr. Cobb, maybe like you said before
you wouldn't mind hanging around a year or two...
if you found somebody you liked enough.
Oh, I think you can forget I said that, too.
Well...
I'd like it if you stayed with me.
I live with my aunt in a house so big
I don't even know how many rooms there are.
Please?
Hey, you said you wouldn't kid God, remember?
I'm not kidding.
[CLEARS THROAT] All right, I'll...
I'll think about it.
Come on, let's go.
ROARKE: I'm not exactly sure
why you're so perturbed, Mr. Cobb.
ADAM: Mr. Roarke,
she really wants me to come and live with her.
ROARKE: Well, I should think that would make you feel
quite good.
ADAM: Most of my life, I've lived by hook or by crook.
Mostly crook, if you get what I mean.
If I ever had a conscience, I sunk it under a whole ocean
of self-pity a long time ago, and now--
ROARKE: And now, Miss Laurie Shannon has,
shall we say, rescued you from that ocean?
That's about the size of it.
She's made me think about things that I haven't thought about
for a long, long time.
I'm gonna see her tonight, and she's gonna want an answer.
I'm afraid it's a decision you'll have to make
for yourself, Mr. Cobb.
Could she really pull it off, make it stick with her guardians
-and all that? -With my recommendation,
it's possible, yes. Mm-hmm.
I want to do the right thing for once.
Oh, I think you will, Mr. Cobb.
I'm sure you will.
[♪♪♪♪♪]
Martha.
Walter, what are you doing here?
Uh, I was-- I was looking for you.
Why?
Well, I was lonesome for a friendly face,
-old familiar surroundings. -I know what you mean.
So many memories come back. You know?
Yeah. A lot of mine I wish I could forget.
Walter...
I wish it had been you. I-- I really do.
Funny how we fall for the wrong people.
Yeah, life plays its little jokes, doesn't it?
[BOTH CHUCKLE]
-Let's get out of here. -Let's go.
[PIANO PLAYING]
Hey, what's that?
Oh, that's pretty. Let's check it out.
MARTHA: Oh, it's Mr. Roarke. What are you doing here?
Oh, sometimes, I find it relaxing
to sit at a piano and play and think about things.
And remember.
Yeah, we know about that.
Yes.
Things like how sad it is that you and Mr. Masterson,
with such a rich past together,
can part with no memories to cherish.
Tough. That's the way she goes.
I wish there was a different way.
But there isn't.
It's sad...
to have had such a rich life together...
and not one to remember.
What a waste.

Thank you.
Thank you.
Thank you very much.
Thank you very much, ladies, and--
Would you do me a favor? Would you please put up
all the lights in the room.
Thank you. And will you take off the spotlight, please?
Uh...
I think most of you do know this is Mickey Masterson's
-farewell performance. -[INDISTINCT MURMURING]
Although I...
imagine many of you thought that I already did that
-when my TV show was cancelled. -[AUDIENCE LAUGHING]
Those were the most wonderful years of my life.
It was a time...
I'm mostly proud of.
Mostly.
Not all.
There were two people just as responsible
as me for making those great moments count.
Sometimes, I...
I don't know how to say this but...
I didn't do right by them.
[SIGHS]
Two people especially who I hoped
would be with me tonight...
their names are Martha Holly and Walter Dunlap.
Although, they didn't know it...
they were my family.
And I loved them both.
And I still love them.
-WALTER: Hold it, hold it. -MARTHA: Just a minute.
[AUDIENCE GASPING]
Martha, you're not going to take all this sweet talk
-lying down, are you? -No way, Walter.
Now listen, don't try to cut us out, pal.
We're one big happy family again.
-Hey. -MARTHA: Hey!
[AUDIENCE CHEER, APPLAUD]
Outrageous.
We fooled you, huh?
-What a surprise. -Yeah.
Ladies and gentlemen, you may remember how we open our act.
Well, here we are again. One more time.
Let's do it.

[SLURPING]
When's the last time you had a milkshake?
[GASPS] Is that what this is?
It's good for you.
God forbid. Whoever He is.
Have you thought about what I said earlier
about living with me?
Yes, I have.
But there's a few things I'd like to say first, okay?
You asked me a very important question this morning, Laurie,
about the accident and your folks.
I'd like to try and answer it.
All right.
Despite people like me,
people messing up their own lives
and other people's too...
I think God knows what He's doing.
But every once in a while, He needs good people
like your mom and dad to help Him out with all the work
He's got to do up there in heaven.
So He takes them away?
It's all He can do.
He knows it's tough on kids like you.
But He also knows that you're strong enough
to keep going
and do all the good you can to help Him out here on Earth.
-Still doesn't seem fair. -I know.
I think He knows it too.
And He hopes you'll understand.
And know...
that someday you'll be with your folks again...
in the good place.
I think I like your answer, Mr. Cobb.
-Good. -Thank you.
Now, you know something?
I haven't danced in 30 years.
How about it, Miss Laurie?

Thanks for the offer, kid.
But we've both got important things to do.
So long.
Okay, Martha.
Walter. [CHUCKLES]
We were just saying how we almost hate to leave.
I, for one, hate to see you go.
Shall we make that two?
I would imagine with such rave reviews,
we can look forward to your revival on television.
We haven't even thought about that.
I don't even care.
I'm just happy we're friends again.
Yes, we are.
And I can't thank you enough, Mr. Roarke.
Well, the compliment is returned.
You've given us much pleasure.
Thank you.
-Goodbye. -Goodbye, sir.
-Good to see ya. -Goodbye.
-Do you think they will, sir? -Will what?
Get their show together again.
Oh, that's relatively unimportant, Lawrence.
They found what they really came for, each other.
[PUPPY BARKING]
Well, Laurie, I see you and your newfound friend
have developed what I'm sure will be a lasting relationship.
He's great-- In fact, he's almost perfect.
Almost, Miss Laurie?
I checked his pedigree myself. He is faultless.
Not when it comes to dribbles.
[CHUCKLING]
Is Mr. Cobb going to be all right?
Oh, definitely all right, yes.
He's going to start a new life
and try to find his long-lost daughter.
You gave him the help he needed, Laurie.
I'm glad.
But just in case, Mr. Roarke, if you happen to see...
you know who...
tell Him hello for me and thanks.
With pleasure.
Maybe I didn't get to meet Him, but I still got my fantasy.
Mr. Cobb told me everything I wanted to know.
I'm so glad, Laurie.
Bye, Mr. Roarke.
-Lawrence. -Goodbye, Miss Laurie.
