[opening theme song playing]

[heroic instrumental
music playing]

Oh, smell that fresh air.
I mean, there's nothing
like it.

Agreed.

I'm afraid you're gonna have
to drive a lot further
from the city

to find it these days.

Yeah. The air's bad,
the water's bad.

Well, at least the ocean's
hanging in there.

Yeah, partly.

You can't eat the fish
coming out of the bays
around here.

What is the matter
with people anyway? Why do they
mess up their own back yard?

Money. As long as they
get theirs, they don't care
what happens down the line.

Think they'll ever wise up?

I don't know, probably.
People generally do.

-But it's too late.
-Yeah.

Hey, come on,
let's change the subject.

We've got a little time off,
let's enjoy it, right?

You got it.

[Mark] Well,
first thing I wanna do

is stop off and see my old pal,
Gary Douglas.

[Jonathan] That surprises me.
First thing you wanna do
is eat.

[Mark] Yeah, you're right.
I am kind of hungry.

So, I'll see Gary tomorrow.

I mean,
what's another day, huh?

[crickets chirping]

[Joe laughing]

[man from TV]
Honey, this isn't
my first time at...

[laughing heartily]

Now see, that is something
your daddy would say.

Yeah, daddy's funny.

Naturally. He gets his sense
of humor from me.

Mommy, do I have
a sense of humor?

You? You crack me up.

Good.

[doorbell rings]

Who can that be at this hour?

No. Sit. I'll get it.

If it's the girl scouts,
they already got me
for two boxes.

[Stevie] More boxes? All right.

That'll last about two days
around here.

Hank.

Tom. What's the matter?

Hello, Lorraine.

It's... it's not good.

Gary's been hurt.

It's worse than that.

He was shot tonight.

How bad?

Oh, no.

No, please.

Oh, God.

Oh, God, no.

-How you doing, all right?
-Yeah.

Thirty-three is too young
to die.

It sure is.

Gary was a good guy.
He was a good cop, too.

I'm not saying that
just because I trained him.

He just had this way
of making everybody feel great.
You know what I mean?

People like that are rare.

Yeah, they sure are.

It's gonna be hard
on his family.

Got a little boy named Stevie.
I think he's about seven now.

Man, I'm glad we don't have
an assignment.

I feel a lot better
having you along.

This is our assignment.

[officer] Atten-hut!

Forward arms!

Right oblique!

Prepare to fire.

Ready!

Aim!

Fire!

Aim!

Fire!

Aim!

Fire!

Recover!

Left oblique!

Order arms!

["Taps" playing]

[melancholic music playing]

Gary will be missed
very, very much.

Thank you, Chief Williams.

Thanks, Chief.

Lorraine?

Mark. Mark, is that you?

How are you doing, kiddo?

I've been better.

Hi, Joe.

My thoughts have been with you.

Mark, it's good to see you.

Oh. This is my friend,
Jonathan Smith.

This is Lorraine,
and Joe Douglas.

I'm very sorry about your loss.

Well, thank you for coming.

Where's Stevie?

I left him with a neighbor.

I just didn't see any reason
to put him through this.

It's hard enough on the boy.

[Lorraine]
Anyway, will you come back
to the house?

We're having, just a, you know,
little gathering
for friends from the force.

I'll follow you.

[Lorraine]
No. Thanks very much, Jeff.

-[woman] Take care.
-[Lorraine] Yeah.
I'll call you next week.

[Joe]
Thanks very much for coming.
I appreciate it.

-[Lorraine] Okay.
-[Joe] Thank you.

[Lorraine]
Yeah. Bye, Fred. Thanks.

[Lorraine sighs]

I'm glad this day
is almost over.

They say the day of the funeral
is hardest.

That was quite a tribute
they paid to Gary.

Oh, yes,
the police department's
real good with tributes.

Yeah, I guess so.

Anyway, look at this mess.

Look, why don't you two
sit down and relax?
Mark and I can clean this up.

No way I'm gonna sit down
while you clean my house.

Rule number one,
never try to talk Lorraine
out of anything.

Rule number two,
never try to talk Lorraine
out of anything.

I'll get a plastic bag.

I just feel like I have
to stay on top of everything.

Especially now. I mean,
there's just so much I have
to take care of, for Gary.

Hey, look, I'd be happy
to give you a hand

with the pension stuff,
and insurance.

I had to go through it,
you know,
when I left the department.

Mark, I couldn't ask you
to do that.

You didn't. I offered.

Now, come on.
I really want to help.

Well, okay.

But I insist you stay
with us then. I've got two beds
up in the guest room.

[doorbell rings]

-Hi, sweetie.
-Hi, mommy.

Thank you, Betty.

Listen, your timing
was perfect.
Everybody just left.

-Was he a good boy?
-He's a doll.

You're gonna be
a real heart-breaker,
you know that?

Now, you take care.

If you need anything,
just pick up the phone
and holler.

Thank you. I will.

Don't tell me this is Stevie.

Stevie, this is Mark
and Jonathan. They want
to say hello to you.

I remember you
when you were a little baby.

How you doing, Stevie?
Good to see you.

Hi.

Let me tell you something,
he has been
a brave little trooper.

You bet he has.

He's a big boy.

What you got there?

It's a picture
of Amazing Man. See?

Amazing Man?
Hey, that's beautiful.

Well, he looks
like a good friend.

He is. He's the best.

Can I go to bed now?

Bed? It's too early, isn't it?

I just want to go to bed.

All right, sweetie. Go ahead.
I'll be up in a few minutes.

Stevie.

Yeah?

You want to sleep
in mommy's room tonight?

No. I want to sleep
with Amazing Man.

Joe, did you give him
that doll?

No.

Never saw it before tonight.

Hey, look at this.

Amusement world
has a new ride...

"Spider wheel."

[Joe laughs]

I bet Stevie'd love that.

He's too young
for those rides, Joe.

Oh, I think he'd get a kick
out of it. You know,
get his mind off...

stuff.

Not that way.

[Joe sighs] Mother knows best.

Well, Stevie and I
are off to school.

He's gonna introduce me
to his teacher, aren't you?

If you want me to.

Thank you for taking him.

I would've taken him, Jonathan,
but I have to see the dentist
this morning.

Oh, I know how you feel.

Come on, pal, we're on our way.
We'll see you later.

-Hi, partner.
-Hi, partner.

-Bye, partner.
-Bye, partner.

Well, you got our schedule
worked out for today?

Yeah. Everything
except the pension office.

Funny, isn't it, Mark?

Bet you never thought
when you were training Gary...

that you would be here,
helping his widow.

It's gonna take some time,
but you'll be okay.

Hey, if you don't get going,
you're never gonna
get your business done.

Oh, okay.

Oh. Joe, I forgot.
We have to drop you
at the dentist?

Don't worry about me.
I'll take the bus.

Oh, no, you don't.

Hey. It's only two miles.

Anyway, I like the bus.

I always meet
interesting characters.

-Okay. We'll see you later?
-Yeah.

[water running]

[melancholy music playing]

It's really sad. I saw
all the reports on the news.

Yeah, well, I'm sure
his classmates
have seem them, too.

He just may have to deal
with that.

Well, if the subject comes up,
I'll try and handle it in a way
that's comfortable for him.

Mrs. Douglas
will appreciate that.

Well, I better be going.

-Thank you very much.
-Sure.

Mrs. Blake?

Yes, Jason.

Was that Stevie's father
who got killed on TV
the other night?

Um... yes.

That was Stevie's daddy.

He was a policeman,
and he was very brave.

He was a hero.

And we all want...

Stevie to know that he
and his family
are in our prayers.

Stevie? Honey, dinner's ready.

He's been up in his room
all afternoon.

This lasagna's great.

Remember the time
Gary brought it to the station
for the guys?

You know, I think that's
how he got his promotion.

No, Gary got his promotion
because he was gung ho.

There's nothing wrong
with being gung ho.

As a matter of fact, Gung ho
was the slogan of our marines
during the big war.

It all depends on
how you look at it.

There's only one way
I want to look at it.

My son was a hero.

We're not going to agree
on this, Joe. So,
why don't we drop the subject?

Well, Jonathan,

how did everything go
at the school today?

Oh, yeah, Mrs. Blake
was very understanding.

I still think Stevie's
gonna have a tough time.
You know how cruel kids can be.

I know.

It's tough.

But he's strong,
and he's gonna have
to deal with it.

Where is he, anyway?

Stevie, dinner's ready, honey.
Will you please come down?

What have you been doing?

Nothing.

-Did you wash your hands?
-Yes.

All right. Come sit down.

Stevie, please sit down.

Your dinner's getting cold.

I have to finish
setting the table first.

Your place
is already set, sweetie.

I have to set a place
for my friend.

Oh, yeah?
Who's your friend, Stevie?

Amazing Man.

Will you look at this.

Tag's still on it.

He never even wore it.

Somebody will get a lot of use
out of it.

Well, Mark's taking
the first load down
to the thrift store.

You got anymore boxes for me?

We're coming along.

[Stevie] Mommy, I'm home.

Oh, great. I didn't want him
to see this.

Well, you're home early.

We had an assembly.

[Jonathan]
How are you doing, Stevie?

What are you doing
with daddy's clothes?

We're, uh...

we're giving them away
to the poor people.

Oh. Do you have to?

[Lorraine] Yes, sweetie, we do.

I want you to go in,
and get going
on your homework, huh?

Can't I stay?

Well, no, sweetie, sorry.
There's really not enough room
in here.

-Please?
-No way, Jose.

But I want to stay in here.

No. I'm sorry. You can't.
All right? Now let's go.

You never let me do anything.

All right. Now that's enough.

-You go to your room.
-[Stevie] You're mean.

I'll be right back.

Stevie.

Stevie, I'm sorry I snapped
at you, honey.

Mommy just has a lot
on her mind,

I have a lot to do
before I go back
to work next week.

Stevie, are you listening
to me?

Stevie, put that thing down
so I can talk to you.

It's not a thing.
It's Amazing Man.

Stevie, I expect you
to look at me
when I talk to you.

I don't wanna.

Now just a minute, Mister.

Now, this Amazing Man business
has gotten all out of hand.

You eat with it.
You sleep with it.
You take it to school with you.

He's my friend.

Well, I want you
to put your friend aside,

and I want you
to do your homework.

I'll do it later.

You'll do it now.

-No!
-All right. Give me the toy.

No way.

Amazing Man doesn't have
to listen to anybody.

He told me he wants to fly.

Is that right?

Well, let me tell you
something. When I see
that you've done your homework,

you can have him back.

Amazing Man's very mad at you.

He'll get over it.

And I don't want you taking it
to school with you anymore.

[whoosh]

Amazing Man.

I knew you'd come.

Boy, it's been a long time
since I walked these hallways.

And everybody looked so young.

Listen, this pension stuff
shouldn't take too long.

I mean, it's pretty
straightforward. Here.

Do you believe this?
They said they'd be open
all day.

Probably having lunch.

Well, maybe they're eating
in here.

Hey, if they're chowing down
in there, they're not gonna
answer the door.

Boy, the guys
with the inside jobs

really have it made,
don't they?

Come on, Lorraine.
Take it easy.

Yeah. Sure.

Hey, I tell you what,

why don't we go sit on a bench
and take ourselves a break?

Oh.

Lorraine, come on.

Mark, why the hell did he have
to be a cop?

Why?

He loved being a cop,
you know that.

What I know is
everybody in this place
could always count on Gary.

To take the overtime,
to pull a shift for 'em.

It's that kind of job,
you know, people here have
to look out for each other.

Really?

Is looking out
for everybody else
but your own family

what it's all about?

Of course not.

We needed him at home, too.

Lorraine,

Gary loved you, and Stevie,
and Joe very, very much.
Now you know that.

A lot of good it does us now.

Okay, Amazing Man,
you stand in front of me.

When the bad guys come,
I'll blow them away
to little pieces.

Amazing Man, there's too many.

I need your help.
Crush 'em. Quick!

What are you doing?

I'm playing.

What are you playing?

I'm playing with Amazing Man.

Who's that?

He's an inter-space
crime fighter.

Where is he?

He's over there.

Why can't we see him?

'Cause he only lets me see him.

Oh, yeah?
Then what's he look like?

He's real tall,
he has big muscles,
and he can fly.

Oh. Superman.

No way! He's much stronger
than Superman.

Kryptonite can't hurt him.

Amazing Man can eat kryptonite,
and he wouldn't even know it.

No one's stronger
than Superman.

That's why
he's called Superman.

Superman used to be
the strongest,

but that was
before Amazing Man.

[kid] That's dumb.

You're dumb.

There isn't any Amazing Man.

-[Stevie] There is, too.
-There is not.

Is, too. We play together
all the time.

He even takes me flying.
We're best friends.

Oh, yeah?

Then he'll probably get mad
if I take your hat.

-Give me that.
-No!

If you want it,
have Amazing Man come over here

and try to take it
away from me.

Come on. Come on.

You're all dumb!
You're all dumb!

I got Stevie's hat.

I got Stevie's hat!

I got Stevie's hat!

I got Stevie's hat!

[Lorraine] Mrs. Blake?

Oh, Mrs. Douglas,
thanks for coming.

Well, thank you for waiting
for me. Listen,
I have to tell you

I was a little concerned
when you called.

Oh, I'm sorry I worried you.

It's just that Stevie's having
some problems,
and I thought we should talk.

Please, come in.

[Joe] Help! Help!

Somebody help me, please!

[Stevie] Hold on, grandpa Joe.

[Joe] I can't hold on
much longer.

[Stevie] Don't let go
of the cliff, grandpa Joe.

Amazing Man's coming
to save you.

Oh.

Amazing Man, you are strong.

Well, grandpa Joe,
you're okay now.

Yeah, well...

How are we going to get
out of this jungle
and back to civilization?

I know! Amazing Man
will fly us back.

Good idea.

Okay, Amazing Man,
fly us back
to our house.

[Stevie makes whooshing sounds]

[Joe] Amazing Man,
you rescued us again.

You are amazing.

Yeah. He's the best.

What are you doing?

Well, we're being rescued
by Amazing Man, that's what.

Right, amigo?

Yeah. He got us
out of big trouble.

You are in even bigger trouble
with me, young man.

Let me tell you something,
I just got finished talking
to your teacher.

She said that you're spending
all your free time with this...

this Amazing Man of yours,

that you're not doing
your schoolwork,

that you're getting
into fights.

Is that true?

I don't know.

Well, I do know.

Now I want you to get upstairs

and get busy doing the work
that you're supposed
to be doing.

But, mommy...

No "But, mommy" me! Now go!

And I don't want you talking
to Amazing Man!

I want you doing your work!

Joe, I do not want you
encouraging him
in this Amazing Man business.

Oh, listen, Lorraine,

I kept my mouth shut
while the boy was
in the room, but...

I got to say something.
I think you're coming down
on him too hard.

Well, I think
he needs structure, Joe.

I think he needs to deal
with the real world.

There'll be plenty of time
for that.

Look, he's
my responsibility now.

I will make all the rules
for him.

I'm sure you will.

But I want to make one point.

Regardless of what you
and the teachers say,

kids do have
imaginary playmates.

I remember Gary had one
when he was a kid.
I thought he was kinda cute.

I'll bet you did.

I'll bet he was a cop.

What do you mean by that?

Joe, weren't you the one

that was always encouraging him
to be a cop?

We're getting on that, huh?

Listen.

Being a cop...

was Gary's decision.

Now, I'm proud my son
was a cop,

and there are a lot of
other people who are proud
he was, too.

Good. Why don't you
tell him that, Joe?

Why don't you tell your son
how proud you are of him!

How you doing, Joe?

Relaxing, huh?

Around here?
You gotta be kidding.

What's the matter?
Is something wrong?

Not with me, there isn't.

I can't vouch for her, though.

It's great, isn't it?

My own daughter-in-law
blames me for
what happened to Gary.

Oh, I'm sure no matter
what she said,
she didn't mean that.

I'm taking a walk.

[whoosh]

Amazing Man?

Nobody believes
that you're real.

Not the kids at school.

Not even my mommy.

And you are real.

And you're my friend.

Okay, here's the last
of the envelopes.

Boy, I can't believe
we're almost finished.

You sign these forms.
I'll run 'em
by the post office.

-Okay.
-Hey, how's it going?

Oh, good. Mark's a real whiz.

Aw, shucks.

Hey, listen, I have a feeling
Stevie here could be talked
into going to the park.

I wouldn't mind taking him.

Oh, Jonathan,
you don't have to do that.

I mean, I'm sure Joe
will take him when he gets back
from the senior center.

Yeah, but I wouldn't
get a chance to play.

[Mark laughs]

You want to go, honey?

I guess so.

All right, pal. Come on.
Let's go.

-Right there.
-Okay.

[Jonathan] So, you want
to play some catch?

[Stevie] I don't think so.

What about monkey bars?

No. I want to play
with Amazing Man.

[Jonathan chuckles]

You really like Amazing Man,
don't you, Stevie?

Oh, yeah.

How come?

'Cause he comes
whenever I call him.

And he never tells me
what to do.

He's a lot better
than the regular people.

-And you know what else?
-What?

He never lies.

Oh, do the regular people lie
to you?

Yeah.

You're kidding.
Who lies to you, Stevie?

My dad. He said he'll come home
after work for dinner,

and he didn't.

You know, Stevie,
I know your dad wanted
to come home to you,

but he just couldn't.

But Amazing Man could.

'Cause when the bad guys
shoot at him,
the bullets don't stick.

They just bounce right off.

Oh, the Amazing Man
can never die, huh?

That's right.
He can't ever die.

You really miss your daddy,
don't you?

No!

Ah, this is some tree.

Yeah.

You know trees
are really special things.

Just think about it.
They give protection
to squirrels and the birds.

They always seem to be around
when you want something
to climb into.

I tell you this tree's
been here a long, long time.

Someday, it's not gonna
be here anymore.

Why not?

Oh, I mean,
I wish it could be here
forever, but it just can't.

See, trees are like
all living things.
Someday they're gonna die.

That's not fair.

Oh, I know
it doesn't seem fair,

especially if it's a person
who dies.

And it's someone you love
very, very much.

Like your daddy.

I want to go play
with Amazing Man.

You know, Joe,
if you can't rinse the dishes
any better than this,

I would just as soon
do it myself.

Well, that's just fine with me.

You do it.

-Oh, hi, Jonathan.
-Hi.

Did you and Stevie
have a good time at the park?

Well, let's say we tried,
but he's having a hard time
at it.

Why, did he say anything?

No. It's what he didn't say.

I think Stevie's feeling
a lot of pain now,
and he just can't get it out.

And I think he's afraid
to get it out.

What do you mean?

Oh, I think
Stevie's gotten the message

that's it's not all right
for him to talk about
how sad he feels right now.

Well, we sure
haven't stopped him.

I'm sorry to say
I think you have.

You know, beginning
with the funeral, I mean,

not letting him go
to his own father's funeral

had to make him feel
like an outsider.

I mean, as though he
didn't have a right to grieve.

Jonathan, he's just a child.

Yeah, but he's got feelings.

Come on, I mean,
since the funeral,
have either one of you

sat down and talked with him
about what he's going through?

No. No, because
it would just upset him.

Upset him or you, Lorraine?

See, I think you're not talking
to Stevie

because Gary's passing
is too hard for you
to deal with.

Really, Jonathan,
that's ridiculous.

[Jonathan] Oh, it is?

Well, I think that's
why you two are on
each other's case all the time.

I think it's a lot easier
for you to argue

than talk about
how much you're hurting inside.

Look, Stevie is taking
his lead from you,
he's hiding from the pain.

Disappearing into
his imaginary world
with Amazing Man.

Well, we were just trying
to protect him.

You can't protect yourself
or him from the pain.

Lorraine, you lost Gary.

You have to allow yourself
a chance to grieve...

so you can heal.

[Lorraine sobs]

[crying] I loved him so much.

Oh, I know that.

But keep his memory
alive within.

Go to your son.

Well, I guess
that's just about it.

Mark, thank you.

Thank you for everything.

Listen, the next time
you come back,

you won't have
to work this hard either,
I promise.

How's he doing, Joe?

He's all cried out, I think.

Is it all right
if I go upstairs
and say goodbye to him?

Yeah. Sure.

I won't be long, Mark.

[whoosh]

[Jonathan] Hi, Stevie.

Amazing Man?

How you doing tonight?

Did you come to play?

No, not this time.
I thought maybe
we could talk a little bit.

What about?

Well, I understand you went
someplace special today.

Yeah. I went to the cemetery
to visit my daddy.

You want to tell me about it?

Mommy and grandpa Joe took me.

Mm-hmm.

I put flowers on daddy's grave,

and cried a lot
because I wanted to hold him.

Yeah, I know.

I wanted to talk to daddy,

but I knew he couldn't hear me.

Hey, why do you say that?

Because he's gone.

Oh, no, he's not.

Your daddy's not gone, Stevie.

See, part of your daddy
is still inside you,
and always will be.

And his love can
always hear your love.

Does that happen every time?

You bet it does.
Every single time.

What did you want
to say to your dad?

It's okay.

Well, I wanted to say...

Hey...

it's all right to tell
Amazing Man, you know.

"I love you, daddy.
I love you, and I miss you.

And I'm sorry I got mad at you
for not coming home."

Hey.

Hey, it's okay to cry.

I'm okay now.

You bet you're okay.

And that's why I'm able to go.

You see, I've got
another assignment.

Where do you have to go?

Oh, it's a long, long way
from here.

I've got to fly a long ways
to help another little boy

who's scared
just the way you were.

Until you found out
your dad was still
in your heart.

Well, I guess it's right
if someone else
really needs you.

There's just one thing
I would like...

if you could.

Well, you name it.

You mean that, anything?

Anything.

[whoosh]

You guys don't know
how to dribble.

Now, watch me.
I can go under my legs...

you know, spin it
on my finger, you know.

[whoosh]

What was that?

What was that?

[whoosh]

What was that?

[whoosh]

Amazing Man?

Amazing Man?

It was just a dream.
