what exactly does that ad have to do with Scrooge?
107
00:07:28,281 --> 00:07:29,749
Nothing. Why?
108
00:07:31,117 --> 00:07:32,790
Well, you can't show that commercial.
109
00:07:32,953 --> 00:07:35,251
If you run that, you're gonna...
110
00:07:35,413 --> 00:07:36,881
You're gonna frighten people.

00:07:46,549 --> 00:07:48,768
Well, it's a little late to get this kind of feedback.
115
00:07:50,220 --> 00:07:53,690
That's because, um, this is the first time I've ever seen it, sir.
116
00:07:53,848 --> 00:07:56,021
You're right. I sprung it on you.
117
00:07:56,184 --> 00:07:57,936
Well, it's... it's not that bad, it's...
118

Well, that's a painting one of my kids did.
143
00:08:59,873 --> 00:09:02,467
There's Santa Claus, and there's Mrs. Claus.
144
00:09:02,625 --> 00:09:05,174

She's an amazingly understanding woman.
149
00:09:14,637 --> 00:09:15,980
I'll just come home and I'll say,
150
00:09:16,139 --> 00:09:19,439
"Hi, honey. Um, we have to move to a studio apartment.
151
00:09:19,601 --> 00:09:20,648
I hope you don't mind."

00:10:26,084 --> 00:10:28,507
- Ah, thank you. - Most of these are towels.
182
00:10:28,670 --> 00:10:29,887
Be wrong once, OK?
183
00:10:30,046 --> 00:10:32,174
Mr. Rhinelander's on his way down.
184
00:10:38,263 --> 00:10:39,264
Booze.
185
00:10:39,430 --> 00:10:41,398
[burps] Pardon me.
186
00:10:42,225 --> 00:10:43,647
[burps] Excuse me.
187
00:10:46,146 --> 00:10:47,147
Grace.
188
00:10:48,773 --> 00:10:50,741
Put yourself down for a towel, too.
189
00:10:50,900 --> 00:10:52,152
What about my bonus?
190
00:10:52,986 --> 00:10:55,705
- Towel and a face cloth. - Ah, shit!
191
00:10:56,072 --> 00:10:57,699
- Frank. - Hey, Pres.
192
00:10:57,866 --> 00:10:59,834
- What a surprise. - Grace.
193
00:10:59,993 --> 00:11:01,666
[Frank] You look great. You've been working out.
194
00:11:01,828 --> 00:11:03,330
Why didn't you tell me, Grace?
195
00:11:03,496 --> 00:11:06,215
Preston, just looking at some of this ink we're getting on Scrooge.
196
00:11:06,374 --> 00:11:08,001
Mary Lou Retton as Tiny Tim.
197
00:11:08,751 --> 00:11:10,253
Can you believe the first director didn't want her?
198
00:11:10,420 --> 00:11:11,421
- No. - Well, he does now.
199
00:11:11,588 --> 00:11:12,760
He go bye-bye.
200
00:11:12,922 --> 00:11:14,970
Hey, did you catch her buy on Tiny Tim?
201
00:11:15,133 --> 00:11:17,261
She doesn't just throw away the crutches and walk.
202
00:11:17,427 --> 00:11:18,929
She throws away the crutches,
203
00:11:19,095 --> 00:11:22,190
vaults over a lamppost, double somersault,
204
00:11:22,515 --> 00:11:24,609
back into one of these things.
205
00:11:24,767 --> 00:11:26,064
- Frank. - Killer.
206
00:11:26,227 --> 00:11:27,228
Yes, Preston?
207
00:11:27,395 --> 00:11:30,820
Have you any idea how many cats there are in this country?
208
00:11:34,277 --> 00:11:35,369
No.
209
00:11:36,029 --> 00:11:37,406
I don't have those... No.
210
00:11:37,572 --> 00:11:38,572
Twenty-seven million.
211
00:11:38,615 --> 00:11:40,215
- [whistles] - Do you know how many dogs?
212
00:11:41,492 --> 00:11:43,290
- In America? - Forty-eight million.
213
00:11:43,453 --> 00:11:47,048
- Wow. - We spend $4 billion on pet food alone.
214
00:11:47,207 --> 00:11:48,584
Four'?
215
00:11:48,875 --> 00:11:51,628
Now, I have here a study from Hampstead University
216
00:11:51,794 --> 00:11:55,674
which shows us that cats and dogs are beginning to watch television.
217
00:11:56,716 --> 00:11:58,889
Now, if these scientists are right,
218
00:11:59,135 --> 00:12:00,933
we should start programming right now.
219
00:12:01,095 --> 00:12:04,224
Within 20 years, they could become steady viewers.
220
00:12:04,390 --> 00:12:06,734
Programming for cats?
221
00:12:08,853 --> 00:12:10,571
Walk with me, Frank.
222
00:12:13,233 --> 00:12:15,031
[whispering] Call the police.
223
00:12:19,572 --> 00:12:21,950
Now, I'm not saying, build a whole show around animals.
224
00:12:22,116 --> 00:12:24,244
- Oh, no. - All I'm suggesting
225
00:12:24,410 --> 00:12:27,505
is that we occasionally throw in a little pet appeal.
226
00:12:27,872 --> 00:12:29,374
Some birds, a squirrel.
227
00:12:29,540 --> 00:12:31,338
- Mice. - Mice. Exactly.
228
00:12:31,668 --> 00:12:33,966
Remember Kojak and the lollipops?
229
00:12:34,337 --> 00:12:37,841
What about a cop that dangles string? That's his gimmick.
230
00:12:38,132 --> 00:12:40,385
Lots of quick, random action.
231
00:12:40,760 --> 00:12:44,105
Frank, wasn't there a dormouse in Scrooge?
232
00:12:44,264 --> 00:12:47,859
No. But now that you say it, I always felt that it needed a dormouse.
233
00:12:48,017 --> 00:12:50,019
- Dormice. Better. - Bingo.
234
00:12:50,770 --> 00:12:54,274
Frank, this show is the jewel in the IBC crown.
235
00:12:54,607 --> 00:12:56,154
Everything is riding on it.
236
00:12:56,317 --> 00:12:59,662
Don't worry, Preston. I'm overseeing every aspect of production.
237
00:12:59,821 --> 00:13:00,993
We'll own Christmas.
238
00:13:01,155 --> 00:13:03,283
That's what I wanted to hear.
239
00:13:05,410 --> 00:13:07,538
- Lunch tomorrow? Chez Jay'? - Right.
240
00:13:07,704 --> 00:13:08,876
- Up, Sid. - Yes, sir.
241
00:13:09,038 --> 00:13:11,291
- Study this. - Thank you.
242
00:13:11,874 --> 00:13:12,921
Oh, God.
243
00:13:13,334 --> 00:13:16,338
If only I could fire that poor son of a bitch.
244
00:13:17,380 --> 00:13:19,974
Hey, Frank! Ah, hold that door, will you, pops?
245
00:13:20,133 --> 00:13:21,680
Wait for me a minute, will you? You don't mind?
246
00:13:21,843 --> 00:13:24,221
Hey, it's Brice Cummings. We met at Spago.
247
00:13:24,387 --> 00:13:25,513
Have you seen Preston?
248
00:13:25,680 --> 00:13:27,728
Uh, Preston just went back upstairs.
249
00:13:27,890 --> 00:13:30,860
I just dropped by to say hello. I went to school with the big guy's son.
250
00:13:31,019 --> 00:13:32,942
You give me a call when you hit the Coast, OK?
251
00:13:33,104 --> 00:13:36,074
Let's go. You know, so, anyway. So, Close??said...
252
00:13:46,534 --> 00:13:48,957
[Frank] Come here. Slam this door. Hard.
253
00:13:49,120 --> 00:13:53,546
Grace, I need a full report on a guy named Brice Cummings.
254
00:13:53,916 --> 00:13:55,384
He's an LA slimeball.
255
00:13:55,543 --> 00:13:57,921
OK. Urn, you're due at Helmsley Palace at 7:00.
256
00:13:58,087 --> 00:14:00,556
- And I'm gonna leave. I'm gonna take... - No, you're not.
257
00:14:00,715 --> 00:14:02,262
You're staying here with me. We're working late.
258
00:14:02,425 --> 00:14:03,927
I have to take my son to the doctor.
259
00:14:04,093 --> 00:14:06,596
Grace, when I work late, you work late.
260
00:14:06,763 --> 00:14:08,561
But I made the appointment two months ago.
261
00:14:08,723 --> 00:14:10,270
I care!
262
00:14:10,433 --> 00:14:13,528
We're indivisible. If I'm working late, you gotta work late!
263
00:14:13,686 --> 00:14:16,155
If you can't work late, I can't work late!
264
00:14:16,314 --> 00:14:20,239
If I can't work late, I can't work late!
265
00:14:24,822 --> 00:14:26,950
Oh, your brother's waiting inside.
266
00:14:27,742 --> 00:14:31,212
Oh, and I didn't tell him about his great Christmas towel.
267
00:14:37,627 --> 00:14:38,844
Francis.
268
00:14:40,046 --> 00:14:42,299
A little bit rough on her out there, weren't you?
269
00:14:42,799 --> 00:14:45,473
You know what they say about treating people badly on the way up?
270
00:14:45,635 --> 00:14:46,852
Yep.
271
00:14:47,011 --> 00:14:49,434
You get to treat them badly on the way down, too.
272
00:14:49,597 --> 00:14:52,771
It's great. You get two chances to rough them up.
273
00:14:53,726 --> 00:14:56,730
[music playing]
274
00:14:58,147 --> 00:14:59,615
- [man] Yeah. - [woman] Yeah.
275
00:15:03,152 --> 00:15:04,995
Why don't the cops do something about this?
276
00:15:05,154 --> 00:15:06,280
Excuse me, please.
277
00:15:06,447 --> 00:15:09,621
Great. Rip off the hicks, why don't you? Did you learn this song yesterday'?
278
00:15:09,784 --> 00:15:10,831
Sweet.
279
00:15:10,993 --> 00:15:13,166
Frank, you don't like Christmas much, do you?
280
00:15:13,329 --> 00:15:15,081
Like it? I love it.
281
00:15:15,248 --> 00:15:17,501
It's cold. The people stay home and watch television.
282
00:15:17,667 --> 00:15:19,214
Ad revenues go up 30%.
283
00:15:19,377 --> 00:15:22,051
All these idiots are gonna be home watching the boob tube for me tonight.
284
00:15:22,213 --> 00:15:24,307
I am the biggest fan that Christmas ever had.
285
00:15:24,465 --> 00:15:27,469
So, uh, any chance of you maybe making Christmas dinner this year?
286
00:15:27,635 --> 00:15:28,636
None.
287
00:15:28,803 --> 00:15:30,680
- Come on. Why not? - Don't start, James.
288
00:15:30,847 --> 00:15:33,396
Come on, the whole family will be there. It'll be fun.
289
00:15:33,558 --> 00:15:36,152
Look, you can have your concerned and wonderful dinner
290
00:15:36,310 --> 00:15:37,482
with all your cool friends
291
00:15:37,645 --> 00:15:40,398
and the real popcorn and the tree and cranberries and everything,
292
00:15:40,565 --> 00:15:43,114
send Christmas cards to each other on recycled paper.
293
00:15:43,276 --> 00:15:44,653
It's a crock, James.
294
00:15:44,819 --> 00:15:46,196
It's for kids.
295
00:15:46,863 --> 00:15:48,490
You know, I like seeing you.
296
00:15:48,656 --> 00:15:50,533
I like being with you.
297
00:15:52,243 --> 00:15:54,211
I want you to have a happy New Year.
298
00:15:54,370 --> 00:15:55,542
[Woman] Taxi!
299
00:15:55,788 --> 00:15:57,131
Merry Christmas.
300
00:15:57,290 --> 00:15:58,667
Taxi!
301
00:16:00,209 --> 00:16:03,258
Excuse me, ma'am. I think you dropped something there.
302
00:16:04,130 --> 00:16:05,803
Hey, that's my cab.
303
00:16:05,965 --> 00:16:08,093
Oh, sir, please. I...
304
00:16:08,259 --> 00:16:09,602
Leona Helmsley's and step on it, will you?
305
00:16:09,760 --> 00:16:11,480
You son of a bitch, you should burn in hell!
306
00:16:11,512 --> 00:16:13,731
Bye-bye, grandma. Bye-bye.
307
00:16:16,184 --> 00:16:19,484
[Frank] I got into broadcasting because I like to give.
308
00:16:20,313 --> 00:16:24,193
Sometimes I found myself hurting from giving too much,
309
00:16:25,276 --> 00:16:26,903
and I'd say, "Stop it."
310
00:16:29,405 --> 00:16:31,499
I'm always gonna cherish this.
311
00:16:33,242 --> 00:16:34,243
And all of you.
312
00:16:37,371 --> 00:16:38,931
I should... I should have went in there.
313
00:16:38,998 --> 00:16:41,968
I should... I should have said, "Frank Cross, you gotta..."
314
00:16:55,014 --> 00:16:57,893
You stinking... You big dog, you...
315
00:16:58,059 --> 00:16:59,060
[bottle crashing]
316
00:17:05,858 --> 00:17:08,236
- [driver] $4.85. - Here's $5.
317
00:17:29,131 --> 00:17:30,132
- Mr. Cross. - Mr. Cross.
318
00:17:34,637 --> 00:17:36,765
[Grace] Wasn't he a medical genius?
319
00:17:37,098 --> 00:17:40,978
Calvin, I think "doctor" is a Latin word for "thief."
320
00:17:41,352 --> 00:17:45,778
$200 I don't have to tell me that you don't speak.
321
00:17:46,232 --> 00:17:48,610
I'm your mother. I know you don't speak...
322
00:17:48,818 --> 00:17:49,819
...yet.
323
00:17:50,528 --> 00:17:51,529
[police siren wailing]
324
00:17:51,696 --> 00:17:53,323
We'll show them, honey.
325
00:17:54,198 --> 00:17:56,667
You're gonna surprise a lot of people.
326
00:17:56,826 --> 00:17:57,998
Yes, you are.
327
00:17:59,328 --> 00:18:00,580
You start talking,
328
00:18:00,746 --> 00:18:02,919
then go to law school and sue his butt off.
329
00:18:03,082 --> 00:18:04,174
OK.
330
00:18:08,379 --> 00:18:10,006
[knock on door]
331
00:18:11,173 --> 00:18:12,265
Come!
332
00:18:13,217 --> 00:18:14,844
[knock on door]
333
00:18:15,886 --> 00:18:17,308
Who's there?
334
00:18:40,953 --> 00:18:43,297
[rumbling]
335
00:18:45,333 --> 00:18:46,505
This office is closed!
336
00:18:46,667 --> 00:18:47,668
[growling]
337
00:18:47,835 --> 00:18:49,435
- [pounding] - This whole wing is closed!
338
00:18:49,920 --> 00:18:52,799
Grace!
339
00:18:53,257 --> 00:18:56,431
[pounding]
340
00:19:10,775 --> 00:19:11,867
[whooping]
341
00:19:12,026 --> 00:19:13,778
That was a good one.
342
00:19:15,404 --> 00:19:17,532
How are you, kid? You're...
343
00:19:18,074 --> 00:19:21,999
Uh, will you excuse me? I'll make myself a little drink.
344
00:19:26,165 --> 00:19:28,884
[yelling]
345
00:19:33,089 --> 00:19:36,764
I don't mind you hitting me, Frank, but take it easy on the Bacardi.
346
00:19:38,386 --> 00:19:39,478
[squeaking]
347
00:19:43,432 --> 00:19:44,649
Oh.
348
00:19:47,937 --> 00:19:49,234
God.
349
00:19:50,272 --> 00:19:52,070
To old times, my friend.
350
00:20:02,243 --> 00:20:04,871
Oh, my God. It's...
351
00:20:05,037 --> 00:20:08,883
Lew Hayward. Your old boss and your best friend.
352
00:20:09,041 --> 00:20:10,509
But you're...
353
00:20:15,089 --> 00:20:16,682
...dead. - Seven years.
354
00:20:16,841 --> 00:20:18,013
[exclaiming]
355
00:20:18,175 --> 00:20:20,018
Has it been that long? Jeez, I...
356
00:20:20,177 --> 00:20:23,932
I mean, to look at you, I wouldn't have guessed more than three, tops.
357
00:20:24,098 --> 00:20:25,600
Oh, Frank.
358
00:20:25,766 --> 00:20:27,894
Frank, you are in trouble.
359
00:20:28,060 --> 00:20:30,028
- Big trouble. - All right.
360
00:20:30,187 --> 00:20:32,189
Let's just say, for argument's sake,
361
00:20:32,356 --> 00:20:34,108
that you're right, that I am in big trouble.
362
00:20:34,275 --> 00:20:35,527
What exactly would that mean?
363
00:20:35,693 --> 00:20:38,412
Look at me. Look at your future.
364
00:20:38,571 --> 00:20:40,744
Now, if you don't change your ways,
365
00:20:40,906 --> 00:20:44,331
you're gonna wind up doomed, just as I am.
366
00:20:44,952 --> 00:20:46,670
[Lew coughing]
367
00:20:46,829 --> 00:20:50,083
One minute I'm on the 14th hole at Winged Foot,
368
00:20:50,249 --> 00:20:51,671
lining up a putt.
369
00:20:52,168 --> 00:20:55,513
A heart attack later, I'm a worm feast.
370
00:20:55,671 --> 00:20:57,469
No, no, no, no, no, no, no.
371
00:20:57,631 --> 00:20:59,008
You're not a worm feast.
372
00:20:59,175 --> 00:21:02,645
You're a hallucination brought on by alcohol!
373
00:21:02,803 --> 00:21:05,306
Russian vodka poisoned by Chernobyl!
374
00:21:06,015 --> 00:21:07,688
I've been under a lot of pressure lately.
375
00:21:07,850 --> 00:21:09,773
- I've been putting on a big... - Silence!
376
00:21:10,269 --> 00:21:11,269
Ouch.
377
00:21:12,062 --> 00:21:13,814
- I had it all. - Oh.
378
00:21:13,981 --> 00:21:15,858
I was a captain of industry,
379
00:21:17,067 --> 00:21:19,991
feared by men, adored by women.
380
00:21:20,154 --> 00:21:24,580
Adored! Let's be honest, Lew. You paid for the women.
381
00:21:24,742 --> 00:21:28,667
I'm warning you, Frank. Don't waste your life as I did mine.
382
00:21:28,829 --> 00:21:31,878
Waste? How can you say that. You're a legend in this business.
383
00:21:32,041 --> 00:21:33,761
You are the man who invented the miniseries.
384
00:21:33,834 --> 00:21:36,508
Mankind should have been my business.
385
00:21:36,712 --> 00:21:40,342
Charity, mercy, kindness, that should have been my business.
386
00:21:40,508 --> 00:21:42,636
Don't wait. Get yourself involved.
387
00:21:42,802 --> 00:21:44,642
Now it's too late for me, but it's not for you.
388
00:21:44,762 --> 00:21:46,105
You can be saved.
389
00:21:46,263 --> 00:21:50,518
You are going to be visited by three ghosts.
390
00:21:50,684 --> 00:21:53,483
- Ooh, three ghosts. - Three ghosts, Frank.
391
00:21:53,646 --> 00:21:56,741
Expect the first one tomorrow at noon.
392
00:21:57,441 --> 00:21:59,443
God, tomorrow's bad for me, Lew.
393
00:21:59,610 --> 00:22:02,329
As a matter of fact, the whole rest of the week is a washout. Ouch.
394
00:22:02,488 --> 00:22:04,582
Well, maybe we could have drinks, say, Thursday.
395
00:22:04,740 --> 00:22:06,500
You, me, the ghost. Trader Vic's around 4:00?
396
00:22:06,575 --> 00:22:09,624
This is no joke, Frank. This is your last chance!
397
00:22:09,787 --> 00:22:12,757
All right. I could squeeze you in for a breakfast.
398
00:22:13,082 --> 00:22:14,709
[yelling]
399
00:22:15,584 --> 00:22:17,382
[choking]
400
00:22:17,545 --> 00:22:19,422
Oh, no, please. They'll think I'm a suicide.
401
00:22:19,588 --> 00:22:21,340
[groans] No.
402
00:22:22,800 --> 00:22:24,427
- [laughing] - Oh, God.
403
00:22:24,593 --> 00:22:27,187
Oh, we're way up here. Give me a break.
404
00:22:27,346 --> 00:22:28,347
[screaming]
405
00:22:28,514 --> 00:22:30,232
- You can be saved. - Don't let go!
406
00:22:30,391 --> 00:22:32,631
- Don't let me go, Lew! God bless you! - You've got time!
407
00:22:33,143 --> 00:22:35,441
No, no. No, please!
408
00:22:37,356 --> 00:22:39,029
[laughing]
409
00:22:40,401 --> 00:22:41,994
[screaming]
410
00:22:42,152 --> 00:22:44,200
- Merry Christmas. - Don't let me go, Lew!
411
00:22:44,363 --> 00:22:47,162
[screaming]
412
00:22:47,324 --> 00:22:49,918
[laughing]
413
00:22:58,419 --> 00:23:00,717
[phone dialing]
414
00:23:07,720 --> 00:23:10,143
[on answering machine] Hi, this is Claire Phillips. I'm not here, as usual.
415
00:23:10,306 --> 00:23:12,183
Leave a message for me and I'll call you right back.
416
00:23:12,349 --> 00:23:14,067
Ho, ho, ho. Merry Christmas.
417
00:23:14,226 --> 00:23:16,069
Uh, speak at the beep.
418
00:23:17,229 --> 00:23:18,651
Claire!
419
00:23:20,065 --> 00:23:22,193
This is Frank Cross.
420
00:23:23,193 --> 00:23:24,820
I know it's been...
421
00:23:26,614 --> 00:23:28,366
...15 years since we talked but...
422
00:23:29,199 --> 00:23:31,827
...but I really need to talk to you right now.
423
00:23:31,994 --> 00:23:34,338
I... Something terrible has happened.
424
00:23:37,416 --> 00:23:39,839
Or maybe not. I don't know. But I...
425
00:23:40,002 --> 00:23:42,846
Whatever, I have to talk to you, no matter what. It's urgent.
426
00:23:43,005 --> 00:23:44,507
Call me at any hour.
427
00:23:44,673 --> 00:23:47,301
My number is 674-9565.
428
00:23:47,676 --> 00:23:51,271
- [phone beeps] - 674-95... Damn!
429
00:24:19,833 --> 00:24:21,553
- [music playing on stereo] - [Shasta] Well?
430
00:24:21,877 --> 00:24:24,426
- Well, what? - Did you get the bonus?
431
00:24:26,507 --> 00:24:28,509
I'm drying my head with it.
432
00:24:28,676 --> 00:24:31,179
[children laughing]
433
00:24:31,929 --> 00:24:33,727
Hey, we'll be all right. Don't worry.
434
00:24:33,889 --> 00:24:37,063
- What are you doing in there? - Trimming the tree.
435
00:24:37,226 --> 00:24:39,729
- We don't have a tree, Mom. - We do now.
436
00:24:41,063 --> 00:24:42,781
- No! - Yes.
437
00:24:42,940 --> 00:24:44,817
Don't plug him in!
438
00:24:44,984 --> 00:24:45,985
Plug him in.
439
00:24:48,112 --> 00:24:50,080
- [Steven] Look at the little angel. - Take it off. Take it off.
440
00:24:50,239 --> 00:24:51,239
Take it off of him.
441
00:24:51,365 --> 00:24:53,834
Oh, but, Morn, he looks so pretty.
442
00:24:53,993 --> 00:24:55,961
He look even cuter than last year.
443
00:24:56,120 --> 00:24:57,246
Look at Granny, darling.
444
00:24:57,413 --> 00:24:59,256
Mom, when are we going to get a real tree?
445
00:24:59,581 --> 00:25:00,673
When they're free.
446
00:25:03,168 --> 00:25:05,136
Have you seen this morning's paper, Frank?
447
00:25:05,295 --> 00:25:08,970
- Who's that? She's pretty. [cackling] - She's dead, Frank.
448
00:25:09,133 --> 00:25:11,352
Apparently, this 80-year-old grandmother
449
00:25:11,510 --> 00:25:14,354
was watching your Scrooge promo last night and she just...
450
00:25:14,513 --> 00:25:16,390
She just keeled over.
451
00:25:16,724 --> 00:25:18,601
It scared her to death.
452
00:25:23,397 --> 00:25:25,024
This is terrific!
453
00:25:25,733 --> 00:25:27,610
I knew that ad worked!
454
00:25:28,485 --> 00:25:30,954
You can't buy publicity like this!
455
00:25:31,655 --> 00:25:33,248
[grunts]
456
00:25:33,407 --> 00:25:34,659
Excuse me.
457
00:25:37,786 --> 00:25:40,005
[Grace] Mr. Cross, you're needed on the set.
458
00:25:42,166 --> 00:25:44,385
I want that promo run every half hour.
459
00:25:44,543 --> 00:25:45,920
I want a disclaimer at the top.
460
00:25:46,086 --> 00:25:48,259
"Anyone with a heart condition must leave the room."
461
00:25:48,422 --> 00:25:49,423
Will do, Frank.
462
00:25:49,590 --> 00:25:50,887
Right. Where were we?
463
00:25:51,133 --> 00:25:53,056
Buzz, I was being haunted.
464
00:25:53,218 --> 00:25:54,219
- OK. - [laughing]
465
00:25:54,386 --> 00:25:56,229
No, it's gotta be real gold.
466
00:25:56,388 --> 00:25:57,230
[crew chattering]
467
00:25:57,389 --> 00:25:58,390
I don't understand...
468
00:25:58,557 --> 00:25:59,979
[Frank] You can't do this at the eleventh hour.
469
00:26:00,142 --> 00:26:01,502
...why I can't possibly get anybody
470
00:26:01,643 --> 00:26:02,986
- to do what I want them to do. - Oh, jeez.
471
00:26:03,145 --> 00:26:04,567
- Give me a break. - I'm sorry, Mr. Cross.
472
00:26:04,730 --> 00:26:07,483
I am the censor, and I will not allow this costume on the air.
473
00:26:07,649 --> 00:26:08,650
Why not?
474
00:26:08,817 --> 00:26:12,287
Well, specifically, you can see her nipples.
475
00:26:12,571 --> 00:26:14,118
I want to see her nipples!
476
00:26:14,281 --> 00:26:16,500
But this is a Christmas show!
477
00:26:16,658 --> 00:26:19,787
Well, Charles Dickens would have wanted to see her nipples then.
478
00:26:19,953 --> 00:26:20,579
Ah.
479
00:26:20,746 --> 00:26:22,965
You can hard... You can hardly see them nipples.
480
00:26:23,123 --> 00:26:25,592
See? And these guys are really looking.
481
00:26:25,793 --> 00:26:27,545
You can go shake a tail feather. Thanks.
482
00:26:27,711 --> 00:26:29,759
And thank you. You can just go.
483
00:26:30,422 --> 00:26:31,844
- Watch out. - [grunts]
484
00:26:33,675 --> 00:26:35,268
Thanks, boys. Get the nurse.
485
00:26:36,011 --> 00:26:37,888
Get the nurse. Get the nurse!
486
00:26:38,472 --> 00:26:40,349
Make sure her nipples are covered up, will you?
487
00:26:40,516 --> 00:26:41,517
[Claire] Lumpy!
488
00:26:43,268 --> 00:26:44,269
Lumpy!
489
00:26:57,825 --> 00:26:58,826
Hi.
490
00:27:02,037 --> 00:27:03,960
I'm sorry to just...
491
00:27:04,123 --> 00:27:06,546
Well, I didn't get your message until this morning.
492
00:27:06,708 --> 00:27:08,802
And I-.. I tried to call but they said that you weren't..-...
493
00:27:08,961 --> 00:27:09,962
...you weren't in yet.
494
00:27:10,129 --> 00:27:14,100
And then I tried to call back and they said that you were busy, so I just...
495
00:27:15,342 --> 00:27:17,015
God, you look different.
496
00:27:17,719 --> 00:27:19,266
Well, it's been a while.
497
00:27:20,389 --> 00:27:21,936
It's your hair.
498
00:27:22,307 --> 00:27:25,652
I've never seen it so short. It makes you look sort of
499
00:27:25,811 --> 00:27:26,812
grown-up.
500
00:27:28,730 --> 00:27:30,027
Yo, Frank. Frank!
501
00:27:30,190 --> 00:27:32,534
I mean, Mr. Cross. Check this out, man.
502
00:27:32,693 --> 00:27:35,617
Girls are tough. It's on the money. Check it. Come on.
503
00:27:35,779 --> 00:27:37,076
- Here we go, ladies. - [clears throat]
504
00:27:37,239 --> 00:27:38,616
Would you excuse me for a moment, please?
505
00:27:38,782 --> 00:27:40,705
[man] Five, six, seven, hit it!
506
00:27:40,868 --> 00:27:43,291
[music playing on stereo]
507
00:27:44,413 --> 00:27:45,505
- [groans] - Can I turn her head?
508
00:27:45,664 --> 00:27:46,506
No.
509
00:27:46,665 --> 00:27:48,383
All right. That works. See?
510
00:27:48,542 --> 00:27:51,011
And boom! And boom!
511
00:27:51,170 --> 00:27:53,013
Little booty here for you.
512
00:27:54,173 --> 00:27:55,925
See? Show me a nipple.
513
00:27:56,091 --> 00:27:57,388
See, you just had to see it in context.
514
00:27:57,551 --> 00:27:59,553
- [groans] - Can you move her, please? Thanks.
515
00:27:59,720 --> 00:28:01,188
Alley-oop.
516
00:28:02,181 --> 00:28:03,398
Is she gonna be all right?
517
00:28:03,557 --> 00:28:04,637
Oh, yeah. She's a real pro.
518
00:28:04,766 --> 00:28:07,110
- [woman groaning] - She's very professional.
519
00:28:07,853 --> 00:28:10,173
What about you? You... You sounded like you'd seen a ghost.
520
00:28:11,773 --> 00:28:13,025
A ghost?
521
00:28:13,942 --> 00:28:16,115
You mean the phone call last night?
522
00:28:17,571 --> 00:28:20,666
I came across your number and I just had to call you immediately.
523
00:28:20,824 --> 00:28:25,000
I know you, Lumpy. I know that voice. That was the frightened Lumpy I heard.
524
00:28:25,162 --> 00:28:26,414
Excuse me, Lumpy.
525
00:28:26,580 --> 00:28:29,333
Around these parts, most people call me Mr. Cross.
526
00:28:29,499 --> 00:28:31,593
I'm sorry. I'm new here and I got a problem.
527
00:28:31,752 --> 00:28:33,095
I'll bet. What?
528
00:28:33,253 --> 00:28:35,176
Well, my problem is this little fella.
529
00:28:35,339 --> 00:28:36,339
Oh.
530
00:28:36,423 --> 00:28:39,302
I can't get the antlers glued onto this little guy.
531
00:28:39,468 --> 00:28:41,186
We've tried Krazy Glue, but it don't work.
532
00:28:41,345 --> 00:28:43,473
- Have you tried staples? - Staples?
533
00:28:43,639 --> 00:28:44,856
Don't you dare.
534
00:28:45,015 --> 00:28:47,609
If you staple that little mouse, I'll call the Humane Society.
535
00:28:47,768 --> 00:28:48,769
I'm not kidding.
536
00:28:48,936 --> 00:28:50,734
I wouldn't do anything in the world to hurt this little fella.
537
00:28:50,896 --> 00:28:53,570
Hey, Marlin Perkins. The road.
538
00:28:53,732 --> 00:28:54,779
I have three dogs and a cat at home.
539
00:28:54,942 --> 00:28:57,695
Oh, beautiful story. Tell Reader's Digest, will you?
540
00:28:59,154 --> 00:29:00,406
Staples?
541
00:29:02,115 --> 00:29:03,788
Same old Claire.
542
00:29:04,326 --> 00:29:06,044
Still trying to save the world.
543
00:29:07,162 --> 00:29:08,960
You still trying to run it?
544
00:29:10,707 --> 00:29:12,334
[man] Hip-hop, hip-hop. Let's go.
545
00:29:12,501 --> 00:29:15,004
- Get out of here! - [woman] Oh, OK.
546
00:29:15,170 --> 00:29:18,094
- You called me. - Who are you anyway?
547
00:29:18,924 --> 00:29:20,301
You little worm.
548
00:29:20,968 --> 00:29:23,517
Who are you? How'd you get in here?
549
00:29:23,679 --> 00:29:26,683
Well, maybe you'll answer some questions downtown, huh, my friend?
550
00:29:26,848 --> 00:29:28,771
What the hell is going on?
551
00:29:29,851 --> 00:29:32,821
- This is my little boy. - All right, you beat him.
552
00:29:33,438 --> 00:29:35,440
- Does he work here? - No, he does not.
553
00:29:35,607 --> 00:29:38,861
I thought it would be fun for him to see a live television show.
554
00:29:39,027 --> 00:29:41,029
You see anybody having fun here?
555
00:29:43,198 --> 00:29:44,950
Why are you so angry?
556
00:29:45,117 --> 00:29:47,415
Why haven't you ever learned how to button a coat?
557
00:29:47,577 --> 00:29:48,794
Well...
558
00:29:48,996 --> 00:29:51,499
You know me. I just... I was in a hurry.
559
00:29:52,749 --> 00:29:53,591
[man 1] Heads up.
560
00:29:53,750 --> 00:29:55,377
[man 2] Heads up. Ladder coming through.
561
00:29:59,506 --> 00:30:01,975
I'm sorry to have called so late last night.
562
00:30:02,134 --> 00:30:04,102
I must have woken up your husband and your kids.
563
00:30:04,261 --> 00:30:08,186
No, no. I've never gotten married. I'm still on my own.
564
00:30:08,348 --> 00:30:09,349
You'?
565
00:30:10,642 --> 00:30:11,734
Uh, no.
566
00:30:11,893 --> 00:30:13,395
- No? - No.
567
00:30:13,562 --> 00:30:15,030
[hammering]
568
00:30:15,188 --> 00:30:17,941
Would you hold the goddamn hammering, please?
569
00:30:18,108 --> 00:30:20,281
- [man 3] Yes, sir. - I better go. You're busy.
570
00:30:20,444 --> 00:30:22,242
- [hammering] - No! No, don't go.
571
00:30:22,404 --> 00:30:26,375
Would you hold the goddamn hammering,
572
00:30:26,533 --> 00:30:27,955
- please? - Frank.
573
00:30:28,118 --> 00:30:30,371
Frank, what did happen last night?
574
00:30:32,581 --> 00:30:34,021
Claire, it was something that I ate.
575
00:30:34,166 --> 00:30:37,010
It was probably a bad clam or something. We don't know yet.
576
00:30:39,546 --> 00:30:42,299
Well, if it happens again...
577
00:30:44,593 --> 00:30:47,972
...give me a call here. I'm... I'm hardly ever home.
578
00:30:48,138 --> 00:30:51,312
I'm definitely gonna call because I'm a seafood nut.
579
00:30:51,475 --> 00:30:53,694
And, you know, to not eat clams is...
580
00:30:53,852 --> 00:30:55,104
What the hell's life for?
581
00:30:55,270 --> 00:30:57,944
- [hammering] - [cell phone ringing]
582
00:30:58,106 --> 00:31:01,485
Would you please, for the love of God,
583
00:31:01,651 --> 00:31:04,325
and your own body, hold the hammering?
584
00:31:05,030 --> 00:31:06,247
Claire.
585
00:31:06,573 --> 00:31:09,076
Sir, it's the Times. They want a reaction to the woman's death.
586
00:31:09,242 --> 00:31:11,165
Well, we slapped her in the face and got her attention.
587
00:31:11,328 --> 00:31:12,688
It was probably something she ate.
588
00:31:12,788 --> 00:31:14,836
He said that it was probably something that she ate.
589
00:31:14,998 --> 00:31:15,999
Oh.
590
00:31:17,334 --> 00:31:18,631
This is Frank Cross.
591
00:31:18,794 --> 00:31:21,388
We at IBC are shocked and appalled by this senseless tragedy.
592
00:31:21,546 --> 00:31:22,388
[hammering]
593
00:31:22,547 --> 00:31:24,140
Corning as it does at this season of giving...
594
00:31:24,299 --> 00:31:27,929
Would you please hold the goddamn hammering?
595
00:31:28,095 --> 00:31:29,347
[Frank] Now!
596
00:31:29,513 --> 00:31:30,639
[man] You got it.
597
00:31:34,851 --> 00:31:36,694
[set crashing]
598
00:31:39,689 --> 00:31:41,157
Oh, shit!
599
00:31:42,818 --> 00:31:44,411
I'm going to lunch.
600
00:31:44,986 --> 00:31:47,739
So, how's everything going, Frank?
601
00:31:47,906 --> 00:31:49,283
Couldn't be better, Preston.
602
00:31:49,449 --> 00:31:53,670
Oh, Mr. Rhinelander, hello. Mr. Cross.
603
00:31:53,829 --> 00:31:56,048
May I get you gentlemen something from the bar?
604
00:31:56,206 --> 00:31:58,174
- Yes. I'd like a highball. - Mmm-hmm.
605
00:31:58,333 --> 00:32:00,427
- I'll have a highball, too. - Mmm-hmm.
606
00:32:00,585 --> 00:32:03,008
[violin playing]
607
00:32:07,843 --> 00:32:09,971
You've heard from the embassy?
608
00:32:10,178 --> 00:32:11,350
Yes, everything's fine.
609
00:32:11,513 --> 00:32:13,186
We're gonna be switching live
610
00:32:13,348 --> 00:32:17,228
back and forth from our Scrooge in the studio to Berlin
611
00:32:17,394 --> 00:32:20,443
where we've got LeRoy Neiman painting the Wall for us.
612
00:32:20,605 --> 00:32:22,357
Then we're gonna shoot on out to Africa
613
00:32:22,524 --> 00:32:25,448
where the Holy Father is gonna bless the entire Zulu nation.
614
00:32:25,610 --> 00:32:28,454
We think it's the largest baptism of all time.
615
00:32:28,613 --> 00:32:30,365
That's just the point, Frank.
616
00:32:30,532 --> 00:32:32,772
I'm afraid you might be spreading yourself a little thin.
617
00:32:32,868 --> 00:32:36,714
So I've taken the liberty of hiring somebody to work with you.
618
00:32:37,622 --> 00:32:39,920
- Oh, great. - I knew you'd be pleased.
619
00:32:40,083 --> 00:32:42,211
I couldn't be more pleased.
620
00:32:42,752 --> 00:32:44,720
- Who is it? - Pellegrino, rocks, twist.
621
00:32:44,880 --> 00:32:48,054
Well, we meet again, huh? How are you?
622
00:32:48,216 --> 00:32:50,639
Oh, look at this. Blue is a bad color for New York.
623
00:32:50,802 --> 00:32:53,351
Frank, I realize this is coming at you pretty damn fast,
624
00:32:53,513 --> 00:32:56,642
but I want you to understand that my only function here
625
00:32:56,808 --> 00:32:59,152
is to take some of the burden off of your shoulders.
626
00:32:59,311 --> 00:33:02,235
A lot of men in your position would see me as a threat.
627
00:33:02,397 --> 00:33:03,398
It's only natural.
628
00:33:03,565 --> 00:33:04,987
- [pager beeps] - That's me.
629
00:33:05,150 --> 00:33:09,075
[Lew's voice] You are going to be visited by three ghosts.
630
00:33:09,237 --> 00:33:12,241
Expect the first one tomorrow at noon.
631
00:33:12,407 --> 00:33:14,660
[Brice's voice] Frank, I realize this is coming at you pretty damn fast,
632
00:33:14,826 --> 00:33:16,794
but I want you to understand that my only function here
633
00:33:16,953 --> 00:33:18,796
is to take some of the burden off of your shoulders.
634
00:33:18,955 --> 00:33:20,923
A lot of men in your position would see me as a threat.
635
00:33:21,082 --> 00:33:22,834
It's only natural. But, whoop, that's me.
636
00:33:23,001 --> 00:33:25,470
Have you ever seen a watch like this? It's a real beauty, isn't it?
637
00:33:25,629 --> 00:33:26,676
My dad gave me this.
638
00:33:27,339 --> 00:33:29,683
[yelling]
639
00:33:34,971 --> 00:33:36,143
But...
640
00:33:38,975 --> 00:33:42,479
But when Preston hired me this morning
641
00:33:42,646 --> 00:33:43,989
as a sort of, what?
642
00:33:44,147 --> 00:33:46,616
A consultant, I suppose you might say,
643
00:33:46,942 --> 00:33:50,162
I said to him, "Consider me just one of the team."
644
00:33:50,320 --> 00:33:51,617
[laughing]
645
00:33:51,780 --> 00:33:55,080
My, uh, my lacrosse coach used to say,
646
00:33:55,242 --> 00:33:58,166
"There is no 'l' in T-E-A-M."
647
00:33:58,328 --> 00:34:00,456
[waiter] Here we are, gentlemen.
648
00:34:00,622 --> 00:34:01,839
- This one for you, sir. - [Preston] Thank you.
649
00:34:01,998 --> 00:34:04,000
And one for you.
650
00:34:04,543 --> 00:34:06,762
[screaming]
651
00:34:20,767 --> 00:34:21,609
[people chattering]
652
00:34:21,768 --> 00:34:24,863
- I'm terribly sorry. I... - Are you him?
653
00:34:25,647 --> 00:34:27,024
Are you him?
654
00:34:27,274 --> 00:34:29,368
Are you he?
655
00:34:30,360 --> 00:34:31,987
[waiter whispering] I'll take it away.
656
00:34:33,655 --> 00:34:34,656
Now don't...
657
00:34:35,907 --> 00:34:37,625
Don't come apart on me, Frank.
658
00:34:39,661 --> 00:34:40,708
No.
659
00:34:41,204 --> 00:34:43,798
No. What was that, uh, that your lacrosse coach said?
660
00:34:43,957 --> 00:34:45,834
No, the point is, Frank...
661
00:34:46,001 --> 00:34:47,799
Excuse me, gentlemen, are you ready to order?
662
00:34:47,961 --> 00:34:51,090
Great. Yeah. I'll have the, uh, California health plate.
663
00:34:51,256 --> 00:34:53,384
- No dairy in that, huh? - [waiter] Mmm-hmm.
664
00:34:53,550 --> 00:34:55,350
[Preston] How's the rack of lamb today, Bobby?
665
00:34:55,385 --> 00:34:56,728
[waiter] Excellent choice, sir.
666
00:34:57,679 --> 00:34:58,976
Sir?
667
00:35:00,724 --> 00:35:02,772
[Frank] Oh, my God. [screaming]
668
00:35:04,019 --> 00:35:05,020
Bobby.
669
00:35:05,228 --> 00:35:06,901
Bobby, look! Somebody save him!
670
00:35:07,063 --> 00:35:08,861
Oh, no. That's a baked Alaska, sir.
671
00:35:09,024 --> 00:35:10,984
No, that's a dessert. You wouldn't want that, sir.
672
00:35:11,067 --> 00:35:14,196
- [screaming] Look! - [waiter] Oh, no, no, no, sir.
673
00:35:14,362 --> 00:35:17,332
That gentleman had a meatloaf. You... you wouldn't want that, sir.
674
00:35:17,490 --> 00:35:20,369
It's not very... It's full of... Sir?
675
00:35:21,369 --> 00:35:24,498
- I'm gonna have... - Have?
676
00:35:24,664 --> 00:35:26,337
I'm gonna... I'm gonna go have some air.
677
00:35:26,499 --> 00:35:27,842
Uh, excuse me.
678
00:35:29,127 --> 00:35:31,255
[yelling]
679
00:35:36,217 --> 00:35:37,685
I'm sorry.
680
00:35:38,678 --> 00:35:41,352
You know, I thought you were Richard Pryor.
681
00:35:41,514 --> 00:35:43,312
[bowl rattles]
682
00:35:55,111 --> 00:35:56,829
- Get me a cab! - Yes, sir.
683
00:36:00,408 --> 00:36:01,409
[whistling]
684
00:36:03,745 --> 00:36:05,588
[tires screeching]
685
00:36:09,626 --> 00:36:11,746
All right, cut through the park and take me over to...
686
00:36:12,170 --> 00:36:13,387
Whoa. Hey, man!
687
00:36:13,546 --> 00:36:14,547
[exclaims]
688
00:36:17,425 --> 00:36:18,768
Watch out!
689
00:36:18,927 --> 00:36:20,053
[tires screeching]
690
00:36:24,683 --> 00:36:25,684
Whoa!
691
00:36:29,437 --> 00:36:30,780
Wrong way, jerk!
692
00:36:30,939 --> 00:36:33,067
Nice hit back there! Solid hit!
693
00:36:33,983 --> 00:36:37,487
- You're going the wrong way! - Relax, Frank. Enjoy the ride.
694
00:36:37,654 --> 00:36:41,124
- How do you know my name? - I know absolutely everything, Frank.
695
00:36:41,282 --> 00:36:44,411
You see, I'm the ghost.
696
00:36:44,577 --> 00:36:46,454
[ghost laughing]
697
00:36:56,756 --> 00:37:00,306
- You don't mind if I smoke, do you? - Smoke! Smoke! Just drive!
698
00:37:11,896 --> 00:37:13,022
Oh, thanks, pal.
699
00:37:13,189 --> 00:37:14,907
[laughing]
700
00:37:17,819 --> 00:37:20,163
[screaming]
701
00:37:24,909 --> 00:37:27,662
What did you do? What did you do? What did you do?
702
00:37:30,248 --> 00:37:32,171
That's not funny! Not funny!
703
00:37:33,501 --> 00:37:36,129
[Frank] All right! Pull over! Pull over!
704

706
00:37:45,221 --> 00:37:47,349
You mean, "When are we?"

Look out!

00:37:56,649 --> 00:37:59,402
Go back to Jersey, you moron!

[laughing]
712
00:38:01,696 --> 00:38:05,542
- Take me home right now. - You got it, pal.
713
00:38:13,833 --> 00:38:16,086
- [coughing] - Welcome home, Frankie.
714
00:38:18,171 --> 00:38:19,548
Oh, my God!
715
00:38:21,299 --> 00:38:23,267
This is where I grew up.
716
00:38:23,718 --> 00:38:26,392
- I thought they tore this place down. - They did.
717
00:38:26,554 --> 00:38:29,228
Guess my dad hasn't put up our Christmas lights yet.
718
00:38:29,390 --> 00:38:32,940
Oh, for Christ's sakes, Frank, it's Christmas Eve.
719
00:38:35,396 --> 00:38:36,648
I get it.
720
00:38:36,815 --> 00:38:40,160
You're taking me back in time to show me my mother and father,
721
00:38:40,318 --> 00:38:42,571
and I'm supposed to get all goosey and blubbery.
722
00:38:42,737 --> 00:38:44,831
Well, forget it pal, you got the wrong guy.
723
00:38:44,989 --> 00:38:47,492
That's exactly what Attila the Hun said.
724
00:38:47,742 --> 00:38:51,792
But when he saw his mother, Niagara Falls.
725
00:38:52,413 --> 00:38:54,165
Let's get this over with.
726
00:39:01,214 --> 00:39:02,966
[ghost laughing]
727
00:39:03,758 --> 00:39:05,681
That was a great joke.
728
00:39:05,844 --> 00:39:07,596
I love that bit!

[groans]

00:39:11,266 --> 00:39:13,439
Quiet. Somebody will call the cops.

- [TV chattering] - Oh, relax, Frank.
732
00:39:16,396 --> 00:39:20,902
They can't hear us. They can't see us. This is not live. It's like a rerun.

Check it out.

Hello, Earl.
742
00:39:56,060 --> 00:39:57,653
Here, Francis.
743
00:39:57,812 --> 00:40:01,316
I've got something for you. Merry Christmas.
744
00:40:01,900 --> 00:40:05,404
- A choo-choo train? - No, it's five pounds of veal.
745
00:40:06,821 --> 00:40:10,041
But, Daddy, I asked Santa for a choo-choo.
746
00:40:10,783 --> 00:40:14,003
Then go out and get a job and buy a choo-choo.
747
00:40:14,329 --> 00:40:16,673
Ah, Earl, he's only four years old.
748
00:40:16,831 --> 00:40:20,005
[Earl] All daylong, I listen to people give excuses why they can't work.

[Wendie] I'm going up.
756
00:40:41,230 --> 00:40:44,109
Baby, don't watch too much TV. It's bad for your eyes.
757
00:40:44,275 --> 00:40:45,447
OK, Mommy.
758
00:40:47,320 --> 00:40:49,038
Merry Christmas, Frankie angel.

Merry Christmas to you, Mama.

Niagara Falls, Frankie angel.
761
00:41:15,765 --> 00:41:17,733
I was touched by a gift.
762
00:41:18,559 --> 00:41:21,062
A four-year-old kid receives what in today's marketplace
763
00:41:21,229 --> 00:41:24,028
is a $40 or $50 piece of milk-fed veal.
764
00:41:25,733 --> 00:41:28,202
Frank, you still spent the next 15 years of your life
765
00:41:28,361 --> 00:41:29,961
sitting on your ass watching television.
766
00:41:30,113 --> 00:41:32,912
Check the records, chump. I did some stuff.
767
00:41:33,616 --> 00:41:35,334
I was a baseball player.
768
00:41:35,493 --> 00:41:37,916
One year, I hit the home run that won the big game.
769
00:41:38,079 --> 00:41:41,424
That was the kid on The Courtship of Eddie's Father.
770
00:41:45,086 --> 00:41:46,463
There was another time, though,
771
00:41:46,629 --> 00:41:49,189
that I was running down a hillside that was covered with flowers,
772
00:41:49,257 --> 00:41:52,682
and there was a beautiful girl, like 15, with pigtails.
773
00:41:52,844 --> 00:41:54,517
- And she was waiting for me. - You are so pathetic!
774
00:41:54,679 --> 00:41:56,352
And her parents didn't know she snuck out of the house.
775
00:41:56,514 --> 00:41:58,812
That was the Little House on the Prairie!
776
00:42:02,854 --> 00:42:04,734
Was it the "Homecoming" episode of Little House?
777
00:42:04,772 --> 00:42:07,946
Yes, it was the "Homecoming" episode of Little House.
778
00:42:08,109 --> 00:42:09,326
Let's face it, Frank.
779

- Isn't that where you wanted to go? - What's going on?
787
00:42:26,961 --> 00:42:28,338
It's their Christmas party.
788
00:42:28,504 --> 00:42:30,472
They've had Christmas parties here
789
00:42:30,631 --> 00:42:32,725

You didn't happen to notice a big Christmas party

You're not leaving, are you? You wanna go get some Chinese food?
808
00:43:25,645 --> 00:43:27,739
Oh, wow, no. You're not supposed to eat that stuff.
809
00:43:27,897 --> 00:43:29,977
They found out that they're cutting up the alley cats
810
00:43:30,024 --> 00:43:31,742
and using them in chop suey. It's a real bummer.
811

Don't eat that stuff.

00:45:36,651 --> 00:45:38,949
Can't we open the presents now?

What are you doing?

00:45:42,073 --> 00:45:43,290
Oh, come on, don't be a creep.

When can we open these?
858
00:45:54,293 --> 00:45:58,173
You can open one on Christmas Eve. That's what we always did in my family.
859
00:45:58,339 --> 00:46:00,888
You have to wait until Christmas morning to open the rest.
860
00:46:01,050 --> 00:46:02,176
Isn't that what you did?
861
00:46:02,343 --> 00:46:05,472
Well, uh, if it were gonna spoil, we opened it the night before.
862
00:46:06,055 --> 00:46:08,808
Well, you wanna open this one?
863
00:46:09,225 --> 00:46:10,818
Is this for me?

00:46:13,396 --> 00:46:15,148
Oh.

Oh, good!

Oh, lots of knives.
868
00:46:31,038 --> 00:46:32,381
I got her these great knives.
869
00:46:32,540 --> 00:46:34,292
- They're super sharp. - I know, I know.
870
00:46:34,458 --> 00:46:36,210
- They don't make them in the States. - Ginsu knives.
871
00:46:36,377 --> 00:46:37,469
- They are really sharp. - They cut cans.
872
00:46:37,628 --> 00:46:40,598
You can cut a tin can as easily as a tomato.
873
00:46:45,177 --> 00:46:46,303
Your turn.
874
00:46:46,470 --> 00:46:49,189

00:46:58,649 --> 00:47:00,617
[Claire] "Love, Claire."
879
00:47:07,116 --> 00:47:09,084
You're such an animal.
880
00:47:13,247 --> 00:47:16,342
"The Kama Sutra. The Hindu art of love."
881
00:47:17,251 --> 00:47:18,969
Read the inscription.
882
00:47:21,380 --> 00:47:23,340
No. You read the inscription. It says "Christmas,"
883
00:47:23,466 --> 00:47:24,683
and then the rest is...
884
00:47:24,842 --> 00:47:26,560
- It's Sanskrit. - It's Sanskrit.
885
00:47:27,053 --> 00:47:30,523
I didn't need any kind of manual. I want you to know that.
886
00:47:33,351 --> 00:47:35,729
Don't blow the ending for me now.
887
00:47:38,356 --> 00:47:40,575
- Did that. - With who?
888
00:47:40,733 --> 00:47:42,201
- Did it. - Yeah.
889
00:47:42,526 --> 00:47:43,652
Done this.
890
00:47:45,279 --> 00:47:47,828
Done this. Buddy of mine did this.
891
00:47:48,991 --> 00:47:51,460
Now this is ridiculous. I don't believe this for a second.
892
00:47:51,619 --> 00:47:53,212
- What? - Says there's a place that
893
00:47:53,371 --> 00:47:55,669
you can touch a woman that will make her bark like a dog.
894
00:47:56,749 --> 00:47:58,922
[barking]
895
00:48:01,420 --> 00:48:03,340
- [Claire laughing] - [Frank] Lassie's come home.
896
00:48:03,798 --> 00:48:06,517
Lassie, go get Gramps. Go get Gramps, Lassie.
897
00:48:07,259 --> 00:48:09,619
I wonder if you're female. Let's turn her over and find out.
898
00:48:09,762 --> 00:48:12,982
Hey. Oh, what a nice coat you have.
899
00:48:13,140 --> 00:48:16,064
I think I should give you a bath every week.
900
00:48:16,936 --> 00:48:19,689
[barking]
901
00:48:21,857 --> 00:48:23,734
[Mike] Good morning, kiddos!
902
00:48:23,901 --> 00:48:26,154
This is Mike the Mailman!
903
00:48:26,320 --> 00:48:27,788
Hey, Frisbee!
904
00:48:28,656 --> 00:48:30,750
I got something for you.
905
00:48:31,283 --> 00:48:33,160
Come on. Oh, there he is.
906
00:48:33,327 --> 00:48:35,421
I really gotta watch out for this one, eh?
907
00:48:35,579 --> 00:48:39,550
Oh, what goodies does he have? Is it a pair of mittens?
908
00:48:39,708 --> 00:48:41,426
It's a bone!
909
00:48:41,585 --> 00:48:42,427
[laughing]
910
00:48:42,586 --> 00:48:45,339
What could it be? ls it a book?
911
00:48:45,506 --> 00:48:47,179
It's a bone!
912
00:48:47,508 --> 00:48:49,476
You can't figure it out, can you, Frisbee?
913
00:48:49,635 --> 00:48:52,889
It's a bone, you lucky dog!
914
00:48:53,055 --> 00:48:55,433
It's a bone, you betcha!
915
00:48:57,184 --> 00:48:58,857
[children yelling]
916
00:48:59,019 --> 00:49:00,862
[Mike] Oh, kids, isn't this terrific?
917
00:49:01,021 --> 00:49:02,773
Lassie's a pretty good friend, eh?
918
00:49:02,940 --> 00:49:05,659
[man] And we're into a commercial break, folks.
919
00:49:06,068 --> 00:49:08,036
[children cheering]
920
00:49:13,409 --> 00:49:16,379
- Very good, kid. Very good. - Thank you. Thank you.
921
00:49:16,537 --> 00:49:18,255
So, how many reservations should I make?
922
00:49:18,414 --> 00:49:21,384
Oh, yes. There'll be you, me, my wife...
923
00:49:21,542 --> 00:49:23,590
No, your wife's in Palm Springs.
924
00:49:23,752 --> 00:49:26,426
Oh, yes, yes. I forgot. Of course.
925
00:49:26,589 --> 00:49:29,183
Well, I guess then it will be you and me.
926
00:49:29,758 --> 00:49:31,260
[exclaims]
927
00:49:31,552 --> 00:49:34,726
And Frank. Frank, I want you to have dinner with us tonight.
928
00:49:34,889 --> 00:49:36,186
- You and your girl. - [Frank] Claire.
929
00:49:36,348 --> 00:49:37,565
Right, Claire.
930
00:49:37,892 --> 00:49:40,111
And order us a stretch limo, too. See you downstairs.
931
00:49:40,269 --> 00:49:41,612
OK.
932
00:49:42,938 --> 00:49:45,282
Hello. Why, you're Claire.
933
00:49:45,441 --> 00:49:46,761
- [howls] - Yes, nice to meet you.
934
00:49:46,901 --> 00:49:48,903
Oh, hi, sweetheart.
935
00:49:50,696 --> 00:49:52,289
[Claire] You almost ready?
936
00:49:53,991 --> 00:49:56,244
The president of the network just invited us to dinner.
937
00:49:56,410 --> 00:49:57,536
Oh, no, we can't tonight.
938
00:49:57,703 --> 00:49:59,922
We're going to, uh, David and Kate's for dinner.
939
00:50:00,080 --> 00:50:01,627
We planned it for a month.
940
00:50:01,790 --> 00:50:04,634
But you can't expect a man like this to make plans a month in advance.
941
00:50:04,793 --> 00:50:06,921
We can have dinner with them next week.
942
00:50:07,087 --> 00:50:08,304
Next week?
943
00:50:08,464 --> 00:50:10,637
It's Christmas Eve. They're our best friends.
944
00:50:10,799 --> 00:50:12,551
It only comes once a year.
945
00:50:12,718 --> 00:50:14,186
Thanks, Phil, babe.
946
00:50:14,428 --> 00:50:16,021
Yeah, it is Christmas.
947
00:50:16,180 --> 00:50:18,353
It's a time to be a little bit less selfish, you know.
948
00:50:18,516 --> 00:50:21,986
Maybe if you could put my needs and the needs of the Frisbee Show
949
00:50:22,144 --> 00:50:23,646
ahead of your own needs...
950
00:50:23,812 --> 00:50:26,486
I mean, I have been fighting for the integrity of this show.
951
00:50:26,649 --> 00:50:27,821
This is the opportunity of a lifetime.
952
00:50:27,983 --> 00:50:30,406
- I'm sorry. - [man] Sixty seconds!
953
00:50:31,529 --> 00:50:34,533
I guess I didn't realize how important it is to you.
954
00:50:35,407 --> 00:50:38,456
Well, I'm willing to forgive you once in a while. I am.
955
00:50:39,912 --> 00:50:40,913
Frank, look.
956
00:50:42,122 --> 00:50:45,217
Maybe we should separate for a while.
957
00:50:46,460 --> 00:50:48,178
- [Estelle] Excuse me. - Estelle?
958
00:50:48,337 --> 00:50:49,384
- Yeah? - When is that limo leaving?
959
00:50:49,547 --> 00:50:52,300
Oh, right after the show. You know how he is.
960
00:50:53,092 --> 00:50:56,392
For a while and... see how it goes.
961
00:50:56,554 --> 00:50:58,852
I mean, I... I know you've been under a lot of pressure.
962
00:51:00,766 --> 00:51:02,643
[sighing] Oh, it's been rough.
963
00:51:11,110 --> 00:51:13,954
All right. I'll try to come over later if I can.
964
00:51:15,030 --> 00:51:16,373
[man] Fifteen seconds.
965
00:51:17,575 --> 00:51:19,543
[bell ringing]
966
00:51:24,832 --> 00:51:27,085
I'll tell them that you got hung up.
967
00:51:27,543 --> 00:51:29,216
[music playing]
968
00:51:29,378 --> 00:51:30,504
Lumpy?
969
00:51:30,671 --> 00:51:33,220
[children cheering]
970
00:51:33,382 --> 00:51:35,009
Merry Christmas.
971
00:51:38,470 --> 00:51:42,691
[man] Five, four, three, two, one.
972
00:51:42,850 --> 00:51:43,851
OK, kiddos...
973
00:51:44,018 --> 00:51:47,147
You left Claire for Frisbee the Dog?
974
00:51:48,272 --> 00:51:50,616
Frank, let me sum this up for you.
975
00:51:50,774 --> 00:51:54,199
You don't know who you are, you don't know what you want,
976
00:51:54,361 --> 00:51:57,365
and you don't know what the hell is going on.
977
00:51:58,115 --> 00:51:59,708
I've made a few mistakes.
978
00:52:00,242 --> 00:52:01,789
I gotta live with that.
979
00:52:03,203 --> 00:52:05,297
But I know who I am.
980
00:52:05,789 --> 00:52:07,712
I know what I want.
981
00:52:07,875 --> 00:52:08,955
And I know what's going on.
982
00:52:09,084 --> 00:52:12,008
[whistles] Hey, Frank. Over here.
983
00:52:12,171 --> 00:52:13,548
What's going on?
984
00:52:13,714 --> 00:52:16,342
How am I supposed to know? I'm only the ghost.
985
00:52:16,508 --> 00:52:19,227
So long, sucker!
986
00:52:19,386 --> 00:52:20,638
[laughing]
987
00:52:20,804 --> 00:52:22,681
Hold on! Hello, taxi!
988
00:52:27,936 --> 00:52:32,316
I have seen your nobler aspirations fall off one by one
989
00:52:32,483 --> 00:52:35,703
till the master passion, greed, engrosses you.
990
00:52:37,404 --> 00:52:38,656
[sobbing] Farewell, Ebenezer.
991
00:52:39,740 --> 00:52:43,244
May you be happy with the path that you have chosen.
992
00:52:43,410 --> 00:52:46,960
Well, I am happy with the path that I've chosen, you little bitch!
993
00:52:47,122 --> 00:52:48,715
In fact, I couldn't be happier!
994
00:52:48,874 --> 00:52:51,548
What are you? Crazy'?
995
00:52:51,752 --> 00:52:53,392
- [bell ringing] - Yeah, Buddy, I'm crazy!
996
00:52:53,587 --> 00:52:55,214
Crazy like a fox!
997
00:52:55,381 --> 00:52:58,100
Crazy enough to see through your little tricks.
998
00:52:58,384 --> 00:53:00,603
I'm back. I can see now.
999
00:53:00,761 --> 00:53:03,014
No one could have been that simple and good,
1000
00:53:03,180 --> 00:53:07,310
and sweet, and kind, and decent, yet caring, wonderful.
1001
00:53:07,476 --> 00:53:09,820
Not on this planet! No, baby.
1002
00:53:09,978 --> 00:53:12,982
Not unless they had something to hide, some sort of trick up their sleeve.
1003
00:53:13,148 --> 00:53:14,946
You wouldn't try to trick me, would you?
1004
00:53:15,109 --> 00:53:18,454
Don't try to trick me today because I'm back, Jack!
1005
00:53:18,612 --> 00:53:22,082
Maybe we'll just check things out over there at Operation Reach Out.
1006
00:53:22,408 --> 00:53:23,409
Pick a side, grandma.
1007
00:53:23,575 --> 00:53:24,747
Goodbye. Thank you.
1008
00:53:24,910 --> 00:53:27,350
[woman announcing] ...blood drive. $20 a pint. Come on, folks.
1009
00:53:27,454 --> 00:53:30,549
Ah, here's a happy donor. Thank you so much.
1010
00:53:31,959 --> 00:53:33,586
Merry Christmas.
1011
00:53:35,170 --> 00:53:36,296
[groans]
1012
00:53:37,047 --> 00:53:40,802
Well, just for the record, you left me.
1013
00:53:40,968 --> 00:53:44,142
You had to go somewhere and get your head together or something.
1014
00:53:44,304 --> 00:53:47,103
Well, baby, my head is just fine. Check it out!
1015
00:53:47,266 --> 00:53:48,939
It's right here where it belongs!
1016
00:53:51,937 --> 00:53:53,860
What's the point? It's lonely at the top?
1017
00:53:54,022 --> 00:53:55,945
It's not lonely at the top.
1018
00:53:56,108 --> 00:53:59,453
Oh, maybe around my birthday and at sunset.
1019
00:53:59,611 --> 00:54:00,988
And there have been a couple of weekends
1020
00:54:01,155 --> 00:54:03,874
that would have raised hell with even a really normal person!
1021
00:54:04,783 --> 00:54:07,377
But that's me. I'm a widow of business.
1022
00:54:07,703 --> 00:54:09,956
That's my life! I've chosen it!
1023
00:54:10,122 --> 00:54:13,626
At least I work someplace that you can find when you're looking for it!
1024
00:54:15,586 --> 00:54:17,964
OK, here we are now.
1025
00:54:18,589 --> 00:54:20,842
When I want a wife,
1026
00:54:21,049 --> 00:54:23,017
I'm gonna buy one!
1027
00:54:24,178 --> 00:54:26,681
And she's going to be devoted to me,
1028
00:54:26,847 --> 00:54:29,225
to my wants and my needs,
1029
00:54:29,391 --> 00:54:30,938
not like you!
1030
00:54:31,310 --> 00:54:33,529
Let's face it, you treated me like dirt!
1031
00:54:33,687 --> 00:54:35,860
Oh, Lord! Another wild and wooly one.
1032
00:54:36,023 --> 00:54:39,152
Honey, you look frozen. Come over here.
1033
00:54:39,318 --> 00:54:41,366
Let me get you a nice hot cup of coffee.
1034
00:54:41,528 --> 00:54:43,201
And now you sit right there, I'll bring it to you.
1035
00:54:43,363 --> 00:54:44,615
[Hazel] Robert, get up!
1036
00:54:44,782 --> 00:54:46,580
Hi, Dick. Herman.
1037
00:54:47,659 --> 00:54:48,751
I'm Billy.
1038
00:54:48,911 --> 00:54:50,663
Eva. Eva. That's me.
1039
00:54:50,829 --> 00:54:53,252
- Oh, cocktail hour. - Drink for Mr. Richard Burton.
1040
00:54:53,415 --> 00:54:55,133
- Drink up. - Here, Dave.
1041
00:54:55,292 --> 00:54:56,919
Drink just for me.
1042
00:54:57,461 --> 00:54:58,883
For you, Dave.
1043
00:55:00,631 --> 00:55:01,883
[laughing]
1044
00:55:02,049 --> 00:55:03,642
That Dick sure knows how to live, huh?
1045
00:55:03,801 --> 00:55:05,144
Why do you keep calling me Dick?
1046
00:55:05,302 --> 00:55:07,225
I'm sorry, Mr. Burton.
1047
00:55:07,387 --> 00:55:10,891
Maybe we don't know you well enough to call you Dick
1048
00:55:11,058 --> 00:55:13,402
but after Exorcist ll and Night of the Iguana,
1049
00:55:13,560 --> 00:55:15,187
we thought we had something special.
1050
00:55:15,354 --> 00:55:18,028
So could you please just do a couple of lines from Hamlet?
1051
00:55:18,190 --> 00:55:19,988
- Please. - Or The Sandpiper?
1052
00:55:20,150 --> 00:55:22,118
Leave me alone!
1053
00:55:22,277 --> 00:55:25,827
- Do Cleopatra for me, please, Dick. - Please do it.
1054
00:55:25,989 --> 00:55:28,492
- Please, do it for Eva. - Yeah.
1055
00:55:28,659 --> 00:55:29,660
I am Mark Antony...
1056
00:55:29,827 --> 00:55:31,079
[talking gibberish]
1057
00:55:31,245 --> 00:55:33,623
All those who don't know Abyssinia,
1058
00:55:33,789 --> 00:55:36,383
to know the rain before nightfall of Cheops.
1059
00:55:36,959 --> 00:55:38,677
I swear. By thee I full swear.
1060
00:55:38,836 --> 00:55:41,430
Oh, isn't that marvelous?
1061
00:55:41,588 --> 00:55:43,966
- Now beat it before I beat you! - [Herman] Eagles.
1062
00:55:44,132 --> 00:55:46,260
- Where Eagles Dare. - [Billy] Yeah.
1063
00:55:48,053 --> 00:55:51,102
- Lumpy, what a surprise! - Oh, God! Oh, God! Claire!
1064
00:55:52,349 --> 00:55:55,148
- What are you doing here? - Claire. Claire.
1065
00:55:55,310 --> 00:55:57,813
Well, you said if it happened again, that I should come by.
1066
00:55:57,980 --> 00:56:00,529
- Well, what happened? - Well...
1067
00:56:02,276 --> 00:56:05,120
I have been thinking a lot about the past,
1068
00:56:05,279 --> 00:56:07,532
and, you know, when that happens, you start thinking to yourself,
1069
00:56:07,698 --> 00:56:10,247
"Well, I've made a lot of decisions, you know.
1070
00:56:10,409 --> 00:56:12,628
And what would have happened
1071
00:56:12,786 --> 00:56:15,084
if I had made different decisions?"
1072
00:56:16,039 --> 00:56:17,541
Do you know what I mean?
1073
00:56:17,708 --> 00:56:19,426
Are you talking about regret?
1074
00:56:19,585 --> 00:56:22,213
Yeah, yeah, I'm talking about regret. Yeah!
1075
00:56:22,379 --> 00:56:25,724
You know, the one good thing about regret is that it's never too late.
1076
00:56:25,883 --> 00:56:28,136
You can always change if you want to.
1077
00:56:29,011 --> 00:56:31,855
- I deal with that every day. - OK, well, deal with this.
1078
00:56:32,014 --> 00:56:34,984
I wanna take you someplace right now
1079
00:56:35,392 --> 00:56:38,396
and eat Chinese food.
1080
00:56:38,687 --> 00:56:41,361
Claire, we got some huge problems this time!
1081
00:56:41,523 --> 00:56:44,493
- There ain't a fuse in the whole joint! - Oh, no, there are fuses.
1082
00:56:44,651 --> 00:56:46,528
I'll show you where they are in just a second, Hazel.
1083
00:56:46,695 --> 00:56:49,039
- The A&P didn't send any turkeys. - No.
1084
00:56:49,197 --> 00:56:51,746
Oh, no, they were supposed to be here hours ago.
1085
00:56:51,909 --> 00:56:54,082
- Not one. - OK, I'll call them in just a second.
1086
00:56:54,244 --> 00:56:55,666
- No... - Can you wait? Could you wait for me...
1087
00:56:55,829 --> 00:56:57,789
Well, they can handle this. This isn't a big deal.
1088
00:56:57,873 --> 00:56:59,045
I mean, it's just some fuses.
1089
00:56:59,207 --> 00:57:00,925
You go down to the hardware store and you buy fuses.
1090
00:57:01,084 --> 00:57:03,758
- What about the turkeys? - And the turkeys are at the A&P?
1091
00:57:03,921 --> 00:57:05,681
- Look it up in the phone book. - No, no, no.
1092
00:57:05,756 --> 00:57:08,555
It's under "A" and if you can't find it there, it's under "P."
1093
00:57:08,717 --> 00:57:10,219
I have to call them myself. I'll call them in just a second, OK?
1094
00:57:10,385 --> 00:57:11,637
You don't have to call them.
1095
00:57:11,803 --> 00:57:14,147
These are big girls, very big girls, and they can do it.
1096
00:57:14,306 --> 00:57:16,775
- Attagirl! - I'll be right... I'll be right there.
1097
00:57:16,934 --> 00:57:19,014
- I'll be... - No, Claire, please. Fire these people.
1098
00:57:19,144 --> 00:57:20,942
- Fire them? - Yeah, you fire them.
1099
00:57:21,104 --> 00:57:23,824
They're volunteers. They're here out of the kindness of their hearts.
1100
00:57:23,899 --> 00:57:26,660
They're volunteers because no one will pay them! They are incompetent!
1101
00:57:27,527 --> 00:57:28,744
It's Christmas Eve.
1102
00:57:28,904 --> 00:57:32,124
They're like this every day of the year. I guarantee it!
1103
00:57:32,950 --> 00:57:36,580
Look, if you'll just wait one minute, I just gotta make the phone call...
1104
00:57:36,745 --> 00:57:38,225
- No, don't bother. - Just a couple...
1105
00:57:38,372 --> 00:57:41,171
- Don't bother, OK? - If you'll just wait one minute,
1106
00:57:41,333 --> 00:57:43,301
let me just finish organizing what I'm doing,
1107
00:57:43,460 --> 00:57:44,632
I'll come with you, Frank.
1108
00:57:44,795 --> 00:57:46,092
Take the rest of your life!
1109
00:57:47,047 --> 00:57:50,426
I'm gonna give you some advice, Claire. Scrape them off.
1110
00:57:50,801 --> 00:57:53,304
You wanna save somebody? Save yourself.
1111
00:57:53,470 --> 00:57:56,815
Oh, that's a wonderful attitude to have on Christmas Eve.
1112
00:57:57,641 --> 00:57:59,268
Merry Christmas.
1113
00:58:02,896 --> 00:58:04,318
Bah, humbug!
1114
00:58:08,860 --> 00:58:10,203
Lumpy?
1115
00:58:12,197 --> 00:58:15,417
Hey, Dick, can you lend me $2 so I can heat my place?
1116
00:58:15,575 --> 00:58:17,248
Herman, I blew it all on Liz.
1117
00:58:17,411 --> 00:58:19,038
There's a sucker inside.
1118
00:58:19,329 --> 00:58:20,330
Thanks.
1119
00:58:20,664 --> 00:58:23,543
This is the last dress rehearsal, so let's get it right.
1120
00:58:23,709 --> 00:58:26,508
# Pumpin', jumpin', pumpin' and thumpin'
1121
00:58:26,670 --> 00:58:28,343
# Get up and dance I'
1122
00:58:28,505 --> 00:58:30,052
[man] Come on, Buddy, it's your cue. Get moving.
1123
00:58:30,215 --> 00:58:31,341
[girls screaming]
1124
00:58:33,260 --> 00:58:34,728
[man on speaker] Cue Mr. Houseman.
1125
00:58:34,886 --> 00:58:38,936
[Houseman] "Ebenezer Scrooge hurried past the ragged boys
1126
00:58:39,099 --> 00:58:41,648
who stood shivering in the snow,
1127
00:58:41,810 --> 00:58:45,280
gnawed and mumbled by the hungry cold,
1128
00:58:45,439 --> 00:58:48,283
as bones are gnawed by dogs."
1129
00:58:49,067 --> 00:58:52,617
Why do I have to be molested by these sea urchins?
1130
00:58:52,779 --> 00:58:54,247
- [man] Street urchins? - No, Buddy, baby.
1131
00:58:54,406 --> 00:58:56,579
Look, look, right here, Buddy. Here's what it says. "Street urchins."
1132
00:58:56,742 --> 00:58:59,120
[actor] I said "street." Why would I say sea urchins?
1133
00:58:59,286 --> 00:59:01,584
OK, everybody, what'd he say, huh? Sea urchins, street urchins?
1134
00:59:01,747 --> 00:59:03,590
- [all] Street urchins. - Street, oh, oh.
1135
00:59:03,749 --> 00:59:06,753
He did say street urchins? I'm sorry, Buddy. You're right.
1136
00:59:06,918 --> 00:59:08,795
OK everybody. That's dinner, one hour!
1137
00:59:08,962 --> 00:59:11,806
That includes walking time! One hour!
1138
00:59:12,340 --> 00:59:14,513
You're doing great. You're doing great, Buddy.
1139
00:59:14,676 --> 00:59:15,796
We need more snow over here.
1140
00:59:15,886 --> 00:59:17,513
[Brice] We gotta watch that boom shadow, huh'?
1141
00:59:17,679 --> 00:59:19,477
You're right on my urchins.
1142
00:59:20,766 --> 00:59:23,189
Oh, Frank! Man! Baby, how are you?
1143
00:59:23,351 --> 00:59:25,854
Oh, God, we were so worried about you. Are you OK?
1144
00:59:26,021 --> 00:59:28,023
Everybody was worried sick, huh? You all right?
1145
00:59:28,190 --> 00:59:30,033
Listen, I call the meal breaks around here.
1146
00:59:30,192 --> 00:59:31,239
Oh, Frank, I'm sorry.
1147
00:59:31,401 --> 00:59:33,324
Look, if it means that much to you, I'll call everybody back
1148
00:59:33,487 --> 00:59:34,830
and you can tell them it's time to go to dinner.
1149
00:59:34,988 --> 00:59:38,413
Hey, everybody, hold on a minute, Frank's got something to say to you!
1150
00:59:38,575 --> 00:59:39,827
Go ahead.
1151
00:59:40,952 --> 00:59:43,046
I think it's time you and I had a little talk, Brice.
1152
00:59:43,205 --> 00:59:46,175
Frank, I'd love to but, you know, Preston asked me to stop by for a drink.
1153
00:59:46,333 --> 00:59:49,177
So if you don't mind, I'll take a rain check, OK?
1154
00:59:49,669 --> 00:59:52,343
Paul, where are you? I need a cigarette!
1155
00:59:55,592 --> 00:59:58,186
Hey.
1156
01:00:01,848 --> 01:00:02,974
Hey!
1157
01:00:07,104 --> 01:00:08,105
Hey!
1158
01:00:08,271 --> 01:00:10,273
[bell tolling]
1159
01:00:18,115 --> 01:00:19,412
Hi, Frank!
1160
01:00:19,783 --> 01:00:23,708
Come on! Come on out and play with me.
1161
01:00:23,870 --> 01:00:26,089
One, two, three, four...
1162
01:00:26,248 --> 01:00:29,001
...five, six, seven, eight. - [glass clinking]
1163
01:00:29,167 --> 01:00:30,840
...two, three, four,
1164
01:00:31,002 --> 01:00:32,800
five, six, seven, eight.
1165
01:00:35,090 --> 01:00:37,718
Oh, I'm a little muddled.
1166
01:00:38,385 --> 01:00:40,058
Seven, eight.
1167
01:00:40,220 --> 01:00:42,689
One, two, three, four.
1168
01:00:42,848 --> 01:00:45,317
Oh, I'm so relieved. It's been so long.
1169
01:00:47,394 --> 01:00:49,317
[laughing]
1170
01:00:54,651 --> 01:00:56,619
[groans]
1171
01:00:57,195 --> 01:01:00,540
Hello, Frank. I'm the Ghost of Christmas Present.
1172
01:01:00,699 --> 01:01:02,246
I had a funny feeling.
1173
01:01:02,409 --> 01:01:03,786
[groans]
1174
01:01:04,077 --> 01:01:06,455
Why did you do that?
1175
01:01:06,621 --> 01:01:08,794
Sometimes you have to slap them in the face
1176
01:01:08,957 --> 01:01:10,755
just to get their attention.
1177
01:01:10,917 --> 01:01:13,591
Fine, slap me in the face.
1178
01:01:13,753 --> 01:01:16,882
- But you kicked me in the... - Hush, Frank.
1179
01:01:17,090 --> 01:01:20,310
It's time to begin our journey.
1180
01:01:20,927 --> 01:01:22,975
And now close your eyes
1181
01:01:24,347 --> 01:01:26,270
- and think... - No.
1182
01:01:26,474 --> 01:01:29,978
- You close your eyes! I'm through... - Oh, no. Don't be quarrelsome.
1183
01:01:30,145 --> 01:01:33,445
Close your eyes and think
1184
01:01:33,607 --> 01:01:36,486
of snowflakes and moonbeams,
1185
01:01:36,651 --> 01:01:38,119
and whiskers on kitt...
1186
01:01:39,946 --> 01:01:41,163
No peeking!
1187
01:01:43,116 --> 01:01:46,416
Of rainbows, forget-me-nots,
1188
01:01:47,287 --> 01:01:51,463
of misty meadows and sun-dappled pools.
1189
01:01:55,003 --> 01:01:57,722
Oh, look, there's Mr. Hedgehog.
1190
01:01:57,881 --> 01:01:59,724
I wonder where he's going.
1191
01:01:59,883 --> 01:02:02,261
Perhaps to Harlem!
1192
01:02:03,428 --> 01:02:05,726
[groaning] Oh! Oh, no!
1193
01:02:06,431 --> 01:02:07,933
I cracked you.
1194
01:02:08,099 --> 01:02:09,351
[cackling]
1195
01:02:09,517 --> 01:02:11,815
- Oh, God, my 'yaw. - Oh.
1196
01:02:11,978 --> 01:02:14,822
- Sometimes the truth is painful, Frank. - Uh-huh.
1197
01:02:14,981 --> 01:02:19,782
But it's made your cheeks all rosy and your eyes bright as stars.
1198
01:02:19,945 --> 01:02:23,290
If you touch me again,
1199
01:02:23,823 --> 01:02:26,497
I'm gonna rip your goddamn wings off, OK?
1200
01:02:27,035 --> 01:02:29,959
You know I like the rough stuff, don't you, Frank?
1201
01:02:30,121 --> 01:02:31,293
Oh, God.
1202
01:02:31,456 --> 01:02:34,209
# Jingle, jingle, jingle, jingle Jingle, jingle, jingle bells I'
1203
01:02:35,252 --> 01:02:36,595
* Hi! " Hi!
1204
01:02:37,671 --> 01:02:39,799
- Come on, Calvin. - Hey, Calvin.
1205
01:02:39,965 --> 01:02:42,138
Merry Christmas, Cooley family!
1206
01:02:43,510 --> 01:02:46,059
Ma, you didn't have to come and get me. I could have rode the subway.
1207
01:02:46,221 --> 01:02:48,474
I don't want you riding the subway at this time of night by yourself.
1208
01:02:48,640 --> 01:02:49,641
- Are you ready'? - Yeah.
1209
01:02:49,808 --> 01:02:51,060
- Good. - [children chattering]
1210
01:02:51,226 --> 01:02:52,352
Hi, Mom!
1211
01:02:53,019 --> 01:02:54,316
- Come on, Mom. - Oh, get out of here.
1212
01:02:54,479 --> 01:02:56,527
- Hi, girls. - [girls] Hi, Mom.
1213
01:02:56,690 --> 01:02:59,193
"Hi, Morn." ls that all I'm gonna get?
1214
01:02:59,693 --> 01:03:02,822
Well, now I'm gonna get freshened up. I'm gonna leave in a minute, get ready.
1215
01:03:05,156 --> 01:03:07,329
[girl] Leave it alone. No one can do it.
1216
01:03:07,742 --> 01:03:10,916
Shasta, Randee, you two go wash up now, you hear?
1217

What's wrong with him?
1225
01:03:28,680 --> 01:03:32,560
He hasn't spoken since he saw his father killed five years ago.
1226
01:03:32,726 --> 01:03:36,776
He just drifted away, like Sleeping Beauty.

Paul, where are you, kid? I need you.
1390
01:10:58,171 --> 01:10:59,263
[Grace] Jesus Christ, hang on a second.
1391
01:10:59,422 --> 01:11:02,471
Hey, you! Joker! Hey, get off the set, will you?
1392
01:11:02,759 --> 01:11:04,682
- [Brice] Hey! - Yeah, we see you, pal.
1393
01:11:04,844 --> 01:11:06,346
Get off the set!
1394
01:11:06,679 --> 01:11:09,182
- Oh, my God! - It's Mr. Cross!
1395
01:11:09,348 --> 01:11:12,568
Hey, Frank, we've been looking all over for you, buddy.
1396
01:11:12,727 --> 01:11:14,695
Frank. Come on, Frank. Frank, Frank.
1397
01:11:14,854 --> 01:11:15,980
I was worried about you.
1398
01:11:16,147 --> 01:11:17,227
Just like Errol Flynn, huh?
1399
01:11:17,315 --> 01:11:18,908
- No, he's OK. - [Brice] Very funny.
1400
01:11:19,066 --> 01:11:21,865
Come on. You go upstairs to your office. Kind of supervise things.
1401
01:11:22,028 --> 01:11:23,748
You can check up the satellite linkups, huh?
1402
01:11:23,821 --> 01:11:25,915
- Brice, we got three minutes till air. - I know how much time we got.
1403
01:11:26,073 --> 01:11:28,872
I just want to say, uh, break a leg, everybody.
1404
01:11:29,535 --> 01:11:31,003
I feel real weird about tonight.
1405
01:11:31,162 --> 01:11:34,462
Yeah, do you hear that, folks? OK, this one's for Frank. This is his baby.
1406
01:11:34,624 --> 01:11:36,171
Come on, come on, come on.
1407
01:11:36,334 --> 01:11:38,462
Don't lose it on me, huh? Come on.
1408
01:11:38,628 --> 01:11:42,678
You know, it has been such an honor to work for the great Frank Cross.
1409
01:11:42,840 --> 01:11:45,844
I'm gonna dine out on this for months. You know what I'm saying?
1410
01:11:46,010 --> 01:11:47,887
Now I want Grace to take you upstairs now
1411
01:11:48,054 --> 01:11:51,058
where I think things might just be a little safer than down here... OK?
1412
01:11:51,224 --> 01:11:54,319
You're beautiful, Frank. Got any last tips for me, huh?
1413
01:11:56,312 --> 01:11:57,313
[screaming]
1414
01:11:57,480 --> 01:12:00,950
Oh, God! Oh, God! Grace, go watch the show.
1415
01:12:01,108 --> 01:12:03,577
He's here for me! Come on! All right, come on! Give it to me!
1416
01:12:03,736 --> 01:12:06,831
You think I'm afraid of you, the day I've had?
1417
01:12:06,989 --> 01:12:11,244
I know what you came for. Come and get it, you pussy.
1418
01:12:11,410 --> 01:12:14,084
- Brice! - Stop scaring Frank.
1419
01:12:14,622 --> 01:12:16,545
- Get this nutcake out of here. - [actor] Who is that guy?
1420
01:12:16,707 --> 01:12:18,300
- Oh, Jesus. - We got a show to do.
1421
01:12:18,459 --> 01:12:22,259
He's in the show, Mr. Cross, as the Ghost of Christmas Future.
1422
01:12:24,757 --> 01:12:25,929
He's great.
1423
01:12:26,342 --> 01:12:28,515
That guy is gonna be a big star.
1424
01:12:28,678 --> 01:12:31,358
All right, go watch the show. We're making history tonight, I think.
1425
01:12:32,098 --> 01:12:33,520
[man 1] OK, video...
1426
01:12:33,683 --> 01:12:35,560
[man 2] Five seconds till we open on B.
1427
01:12:35,726 --> 01:12:37,649
- Then we go live. - [man 3] Right.
1428
01:12:44,402 --> 01:12:46,404
God bless us, every one!
1429
01:12:51,075 --> 01:12:53,123
Tonight, live on IBC,
1430
01:12:53,286 --> 01:12:55,664
the world premiere telecast of a Christmas classic,
1431
01:12:55,830 --> 01:12:58,083
Charles Dickens' immortal Scrooge.
1432
01:13:11,554 --> 01:13:13,394
- [man] Ready to roll B. - B on the bell tower.
1433
01:13:13,514 --> 01:13:15,687
- Don't screw up... - Roll tape B.
1434
01:13:15,850 --> 01:13:16,942
Hold there, three.
1435
01:13:18,269 --> 01:13:19,816
All right, coming up on three.
1436
01:13:19,979 --> 01:13:22,152
Three, two, one. Dissolve it.
1437
01:13:22,315 --> 01:13:24,075
- And dancing. - [man 1] Right where you are.
1438
01:13:24,108 --> 01:13:27,237
[man 2] Slow pullout on three. Slow pullout on three.
1439
01:13:27,403 --> 01:13:29,826
[man 3] Down on Houseman, lights up. Ready, mic him in.
1440
01:13:29,989 --> 01:13:33,334
It was a cold, bleak Christmas Eve.
1441
01:13:33,492 --> 01:13:35,995
The fog-draped streets of London...
1442
01:13:36,203 --> 01:13:38,752
Oh, you've got Houseman. I think he's wonderful.
1443
01:13:38,915 --> 01:13:40,883
- Give me the beer. - Yes, sir.
1444
01:13:41,208 --> 01:13:43,677
...a phantom through the dingy mist.
1445
01:13:44,003 --> 01:13:46,176
Old Ebenezer Scrooge,
1446
01:13:46,714 --> 01:13:49,217
alone in his gloomy chambers...
1447
01:13:49,383 --> 01:13:51,543
We'll make that move as soon as we get off of Houseman.
1448
01:13:51,594 --> 01:13:53,642
Coming to camera three live. Dissolve three.
1449
01:13:54,805 --> 01:13:57,228
- What have we here? - They're dormice, Uncle.
1450
01:13:57,391 --> 01:13:58,893
[squeaking]
1451
01:13:59,060 --> 01:14:00,903
Dormice? Dormice?
1452
01:14:01,062 --> 01:14:02,484
You see? Works like a charm.
1453
01:14:02,647 --> 01:14:04,240
- [actor 1] What do they do? - [actor 2] They bring you luck.
1454
01:14:04,398 --> 01:14:05,570
Are you lucky?
1455
01:14:05,733 --> 01:14:09,328
Sir, I believe I am. I've got your niece for my wife.
1456
01:14:09,487 --> 01:14:12,206
I've got a good job, and it's the holidays, sir.
1457
01:14:12,657 --> 01:14:14,204
Holiday, is it?
1458
01:14:14,408 --> 01:14:17,002
You have my niece for a wife all right.
1459
01:14:17,161 --> 01:14:20,506
Do you have my job too? That's the luck.
1460
01:14:22,333 --> 01:14:25,337
"To Frank, the best brother a guy ever had.
1461
01:14:27,088 --> 01:14:28,556
Merry Christmas."
1462
01:14:29,632 --> 01:14:30,884
[sighing]
1463
01:14:31,050 --> 01:14:33,348
[people singing on TV] I When the snow lay round about
1464
01:14:33,511 --> 01:14:35,479
# Deep and crisp and even
1465
01:14:35,638 --> 01:14:38,437
# Brightly shone the moon that night
1466
01:14:38,766 --> 01:14:41,064
# Though the frost was cruel
1467
01:14:41,227 --> 01:14:43,605
# When a poor man came in sight
1468
01:14:43,771 --> 01:14:47,742
# Gathering winter fuel I'
1469
01:14:48,818 --> 01:14:51,571
This is indeed a night for revelation.
1470
01:14:51,946 --> 01:14:54,665
Thank you for showing me the true meaning.
1471
01:14:54,824 --> 01:14:56,747
Thank me not, Ebenezer,
1472
01:14:56,909 --> 01:15:01,005
for soon you shall be visited by the final spirit.
1473
01:15:01,163 --> 01:15:05,134
The thing that all men fear the most.
1474
01:15:05,292 --> 01:15:07,841
The Ghost of Christmas Future.
1475
01:15:08,295 --> 01:15:09,763
[Ebenezer] Oh, thank you, sir.
1476
01:15:10,339 --> 01:15:12,808
I'll be so good. I'll repent.
1477
01:15:12,967 --> 01:15:13,968
[chattering]
1478
01:15:14,135 --> 01:15:15,978
[mumbling]
1479
01:15:34,196 --> 01:15:36,449
Honey, I'm home!
1480
01:15:40,453 --> 01:15:41,973
- Oh, boy! - [Eliot] Remember me, boss?
1481
01:15:42,121 --> 01:15:44,795
The guy you canned the day before Christmas?
1482
01:15:45,624 --> 01:15:47,126
Merry Christmas!
1483
01:15:48,627 --> 01:15:50,675
Hello, wabbit. [cackling]
1484
01:15:50,838 --> 01:15:52,198
Would you give me a running start?
1485
01:15:52,256 --> 01:15:56,602
Sure. 1,001, 1,002, 1,003.
1486
01:15:58,804 --> 01:16:01,398
My God! My babies!
1487
01:16:02,183 --> 01:16:03,230
[exclaiming]
1488
01:16:04,143 --> 01:16:06,646
[yells]
1489
01:16:09,023 --> 01:16:11,151
# Oh, you better watch out
1490
01:16:11,317 --> 01:16:13,740
Can't you get back to me on this after the holidays?
1491
01:16:13,903 --> 01:16:15,075
I've had a bad day.
1492
01:16:15,237 --> 01:16:17,239
You've had a bad day'?
1493
01:16:17,406 --> 01:16:21,536
Let me tell you a little bit about my day! I got fired! My wife left me!
1494
01:16:22,661 --> 01:16:25,460
She took our little baby daughter...
1495
01:16:26,415 --> 01:16:27,416
...with her.
1496
01:16:28,918 --> 01:16:33,298
I can't recall much after that because ever since then, I've been
1497
01:16:33,464 --> 01:16:36,968
blind, stinking drunk!
1498
01:16:38,677 --> 01:16:41,851
# He sees you when you're sleeping
1499
01:16:42,014 --> 01:16:43,607
You gotta believe me, Eliot!
1500
01:16:43,766 --> 01:16:46,394
I'm having a much worse day than you are!
1501
01:16:46,560 --> 01:16:47,732
Much worse! Really!
1502
01:16:48,979 --> 01:16:51,823
# He knows if you've been bad
1503
01:16:54,360 --> 01:16:57,455
# So be good, for goodness' sake
1504
01:16:57,613 --> 01:17:00,708
# Oh, he's making a list
1505
01:17:00,866 --> 01:17:02,914
# He's checking it twice
1506
01:17:03,327 --> 01:17:05,170
# Gonna find out
1507
01:17:05,329 --> 01:17:07,502
# Who's naughty or nice
1508
01:17:08,040 --> 01:17:11,544
# Santa Claus is coming
1509
01:17:12,294 --> 01:17:13,921
- [screaming] - # To town #

01:17:16,382 --> 01:17:17,382
[grunts]
1511
01:17:18,759 --> 01:17:19,976
[screams]
1512
01:17:21,554 --> 01:17:23,602
It's you. Creep.
1513
01:17:24,014 --> 01:17:26,494
God. Aren't you supposed to be in the studio? We're on the air.
1514
01:17:26,600 --> 01:17:28,022
Hey, back off, big man.
1515
01:17:28,185 --> 01:17:30,438
That may work with the chicks but not with me.
1516
01:17:30,604 --> 01:17:32,322
Is this straight?
1517
01:17:32,481 --> 01:17:34,779
[muffled chattering]
1518
01:17:34,942 --> 01:17:35,943
May I?
1519
01:17:36,110 --> 01:17:38,738
[growling]
1520
01:17:41,866 --> 01:17:44,494
[growling]
1521
01:17:47,246 --> 01:17:48,418
Did our people do that?
1522
01:17:49,081 --> 01:17:51,083
We're gonna get phone calls.
1523
01:18:14,190 --> 01:18:16,033
Visiting hours are over, Mrs. Cooley.
1524
01:18:18,861 --> 01:18:21,865
- I just got here. - I know but we have to go.
1525
01:18:25,159 --> 01:18:27,036
Merry Christmas, Calvin.
1526
01:18:31,498 --> 01:18:32,795
[Grace] I'll see you.
1527
01:18:35,836 --> 01:18:36,837
[doorknob rattling]
1528
01:18:43,302 --> 01:18:47,102
Now, this is just possible future, right? I mean, this is doable.
1529
01:18:47,264 --> 01:18:49,687
I know the head of pediatrics at NYU.
1530
01:18:49,850 --> 01:18:51,898
We can get this kid out of here right away.
1531
01:18:52,061 --> 01:18:53,153
This is not a problem.
1532
01:18:53,312 --> 01:18:55,030
I'm all over this. Don't worry about it!
1533
01:19:01,320 --> 01:19:02,947
[woman laughing]
1534
01:19:04,365 --> 01:19:05,366
Will you look at that?
1535
01:19:06,617 --> 01:19:08,244
Where did they come from?
1536
01:19:08,410 --> 01:19:10,083
Hey, you! Beat it!
1537
01:19:10,246 --> 01:19:11,418
- Please. - Please.
1538
01:19:11,580 --> 01:19:13,173
- Gilles. - Madame?
1539
01:19:13,332 --> 01:19:15,334
Will you look at that? Look at those filthy little creatures.
1540
01:19:15,501 --> 01:19:18,345
- Immédiatement. - Oh, Claire! Claire!
1541
01:19:18,504 --> 01:19:22,054
Claire! Claire! Claire, they're just children.
1542
01:19:22,216 --> 01:19:25,220
Please, darling, don't tell me.
1543
01:19:26,345 --> 01:19:31,226
I wasted 20 years of my life on pathetic little creatures like those.
1544
01:19:32,184 --> 01:19:34,983
Finally, thank God, a friend of mine said to me,
1545
01:19:36,689 --> 01:19:38,691
"Scrape them off, Claire.
1546
01:19:38,857 --> 01:19:40,655
You wanna save somebody,
1547
01:19:41,360 --> 01:19:42,907
save yourself."
1548
01:19:44,280 --> 01:19:45,907
I'm sorry, Claire.
1549
01:19:46,532 --> 01:19:48,284
Thanks a lot, Lumpy.
1550
01:19:54,540 --> 01:19:56,884
That was a lousy thing to do.
1551
01:20:05,301 --> 01:20:06,678
Disneyland?
1552
01:20:31,535 --> 01:20:32,536
Wendie!
1553
01:20:34,496 --> 01:20:35,497
Oh, no.
1554
01:20:36,248 --> 01:20:38,501
James, my brother.
1555
01:20:39,752 --> 01:20:41,049
He's dead.
1556
01:20:41,962 --> 01:20:44,056
Why did this have to happen?
1557
01:20:48,135 --> 01:20:50,809
Well, when I get back I'm... I'm gonna...
1558
01:20:52,181 --> 01:20:53,683
Well, there he is! James!
1559
01:20:57,519 --> 01:20:58,520
Who's in there?
1560
01:20:58,687 --> 01:21:00,815
"The Lord is my shepherd, I shall not want.
1561
01:21:00,981 --> 01:21:03,154
He maketh me lie down in green pastures.
1562
01:21:03,317 --> 01:21:07,117
He leadeth me in the paths of righteousness for his name's sake."
1563
01:21:07,780 --> 01:21:10,283
What the hell is this that you're saying?
1564
01:21:10,449 --> 01:21:12,122
What? That I've died?
1565
01:21:19,041 --> 01:21:21,401
Why are you showing me this stuff? I can't do anything dead!
1566
01:21:21,502 --> 01:21:24,301
Why the hell did you bother to show me this stuff?
1567
01:21:25,672 --> 01:21:26,798
James, help me.
1568
01:21:29,134 --> 01:21:31,102
No. Oh, no.
1569
01:21:31,261 --> 01:21:33,309
Please don't let them burn me, James.
1570
01:21:34,807 --> 01:21:38,528
Jimmy, don't let them burn me! Please don't let them burn me!
1571
01:21:39,144 --> 01:21:41,693
I'm in here! Oh, God!
1572
01:21:42,523 --> 01:21:44,321
Don't let them do it!
1573
01:21:45,317 --> 01:21:48,321
Don't let them do it! Don't let them! I'm in here!
1574
01:21:48,487 --> 01:21:49,488
[screaming]
1575
01:21:49,655 --> 01:21:50,952
Mom!
1576
01:21:51,782 --> 01:21:54,956
God, I want to live! I want to live!
1577
01:21:55,369 --> 01:21:58,669
Oh, God, I wanna live! Help!
1578
01:21:59,373 --> 01:22:00,841
I wanna live!
1579
01:22:01,708 --> 01:22:03,130
I wanna live!
1580
01:22:04,128 --> 01:22:05,425
I'm alive!
1581
01:22:05,587 --> 01:22:06,759
# Hallelujah I'
1582
01:22:06,922 --> 01:22:09,050
Holy shit, what a break!
1583
01:22:09,591 --> 01:22:11,093
I'm at work!
1584
01:22:11,552 --> 01:22:13,475
Oh, God, it's the sun!
1585
01:22:13,637 --> 01:22:15,856
I never thought I'd see the sun again!
1586
01:22:16,014 --> 01:22:18,108
- I'm alive! - Not for long.
1587
01:22:18,767 --> 01:22:20,565
Milkman!
1588
01:22:22,646 --> 01:22:24,193
I'm the Woodstock baby!
1589
01:22:24,356 --> 01:22:26,108
I'm gonna start with you.
1590
01:22:27,025 --> 01:22:28,026
[smacking]
1591
01:22:28,193 --> 01:22:29,713
You're one of my favorites. Come here!
1592
01:22:29,862 --> 01:22:33,366
# I'm alive and so are you I'
1593
01:22:33,532 --> 01:22:37,457
Hey, you glad to see me, or is this a shotgun in your pocket?
1594
01:22:37,619 --> 01:22:40,463
- [shotgun firing] - OK. You've heard it. Come on.
1595
01:22:41,915 --> 01:22:43,007
Great!
1596
01:22:43,625 --> 01:22:47,346
- Don't hurt me. - We're alive! Pink side! Coming back!
1597
01:22:47,504 --> 01:22:48,847
Long sole!
1598
01:22:49,006 --> 01:22:51,179
- You know this one? - [blowing]
1599
01:22:51,341 --> 01:22:53,935
That's my thing. I'm going to be doing this to everybody.
1600
01:22:54,094 --> 01:22:55,937
- [chuckles] - All right, here's the deal.
1601
01:22:57,055 --> 01:22:58,975
I'll hire you back at twice your original salary.
1602
01:22:59,558 --> 01:23:01,435
I'll make you my vice president in charge of programming
1603
01:23:01,602 --> 01:23:03,195
and I'll give you an office up here.
1604
01:23:03,353 --> 01:23:05,902
- Would you like my office? - No, I don't like your office.
1605
01:23:06,064 --> 01:23:07,064
[laughs]
1606
01:23:07,983 --> 01:23:09,235
That's so you!
1607
01:23:09,401 --> 01:23:10,903
What's the catch?
1608
01:23:11,069 --> 01:23:14,243
The catch is that you gotta take a shower, little man.
1609
01:23:14,406 --> 01:23:16,283
You are ripe, whoa!
1610
01:23:16,450 --> 01:23:17,918
There's a problem here.
1611
01:23:18,076 --> 01:23:21,671
I was looking for a Francis Xavier Cross.
1612
01:23:21,830 --> 01:23:24,299
That's me, but the great thing is,
1613
01:23:24,458 --> 01:23:26,176
it's not me!
1614
01:23:26,335 --> 01:23:30,056
The Jews taught me this great word, schmuck.
1615
01:23:30,422 --> 01:23:32,720
I was a schmuck. And now...
1616
01:23:33,383 --> 01:23:35,101
...I'm not a schmuck.
1617
01:23:35,594 --> 01:23:38,643
- [clock chiming] - Wait a minute! What time is it?
1618
01:23:39,306 --> 01:23:41,775
- Somebody stole my watch. - It's a quarter to.
1619
01:23:41,934 --> 01:23:42,935
We didn't miss it!
1620
01:23:43,101 --> 01:23:45,274
[laughing] We didn't miss it!
1621
01:23:45,437 --> 01:23:46,797
- We didn't miss what? - Christmas.
1622
01:23:46,897 --> 01:23:48,240
Merry Christmas!
1623
01:23:49,233 --> 01:23:50,234
[Frank whooping]
1624
01:23:50,400 --> 01:23:51,400
Are you alone in there?
1625
01:23:52,528 --> 01:23:53,700
We're gonna have some fun.
1626
01:23:53,862 --> 01:23:56,866
You and I are going to have some fun for once in this life.
1627
01:23:57,032 --> 01:23:59,160
Loudermilk and Cross together!
1628
01:24:00,911 --> 01:24:03,289
My, what a glorious day.
1629
01:24:03,455 --> 01:24:05,753
There has never been such a day.
1630
01:24:06,625 --> 01:24:08,468
Say, there! You lad.
1631
01:24:08,627 --> 01:24:10,846
Yes, sir? Are you talking to me?
1632
01:24:11,004 --> 01:24:12,756
And take three.
1633
01:24:12,923 --> 01:24:14,220
[actor] Yes, indeed!
1634
01:24:14,633 --> 01:24:16,101
Buy me a goose.
1635
01:24:16,552 --> 01:24:19,146
The biggest goose in all of London.
1636
01:24:19,304 --> 01:24:21,978
Camera three, follow the coin all the way down.
1637
01:24:23,517 --> 01:24:24,939
Oh, I got it!
1638
01:24:25,936 --> 01:24:27,358
Holy shit, that's Frank Cross!
1639
01:24:27,521 --> 01:24:29,023
- He's drunk! - He's nuts!
1640
01:24:29,648 --> 01:24:30,900
He's finished.
1641
01:24:31,400 --> 01:24:32,572
[screaming]
1642
01:24:32,734 --> 01:24:33,735
Shut up!
1643
01:24:34,152 --> 01:24:36,655
Don't touch that dial and stay on him.
1644
01:24:36,989 --> 01:24:38,229
- What's your name, son? - Mike.
1645
01:24:38,365 --> 01:24:39,925
Mike, say hello to your folks, will you?
1646
01:24:40,033 --> 01:24:41,034
Hi.
1647
01:24:41,201 --> 01:24:43,579
Mike is doing a great job here for us tonight. Thank you.
1648
01:24:43,745 --> 01:24:45,873
- That's Frank Cross. - [Frank] I am...
1649
01:24:46,039 --> 01:24:49,134
- ls he supposed to be in the show? - What in the...
1650
01:24:49,293 --> 01:24:51,341
Good evening and merry Christmas.
1651
01:24:51,503 --> 01:24:53,505
Uh, with me in the booth is Eliot Loudermilk.
1652
01:24:53,672 --> 01:24:55,925
- Eliot, how are we doing up there? - Open his mic.
1653
01:24:57,217 --> 01:24:58,469
[Eliot] Wonderful! But, um,
1654
01:24:58,635 --> 01:25:00,555
I don't think you're gonna be president tomorrow.
1655
01:25:01,096 --> 01:25:04,521
At least I am the president, uh, of the network tonight.
1656
01:25:04,683 --> 01:25:06,026
Tomorrow morning I may not be.
1657
01:25:06,184 --> 01:25:09,233
You can bet your Aunt Suzy's ash can on that!
1658
01:25:09,396 --> 01:25:13,902
So, what are you doing watching television on Christmas Eve?
1659
01:25:14,067 --> 01:25:16,365
They're paying your salary, you ass!
1660
01:25:16,528 --> 01:25:19,452
[Frank] And what kind of a rat bastard idiot
1661
01:25:19,615 --> 01:25:22,789
would schedule a live show on a Christmas Eve?
1662
01:25:22,951 --> 01:25:24,123
Only you, Frank.
1663
01:25:24,286 --> 01:25:25,378
[chuckles]
1664
01:25:25,537 --> 01:25:28,791
You know, a week ago, I'd have kicked your butt right out of the building.
1665
01:25:28,957 --> 01:25:32,131
But you know something? He's absolutely right.
1666
01:25:32,544 --> 01:25:36,674
You are looking at a guy who told someone today
1667
01:25:36,923 --> 01:25:40,177
to staple antlers to a mouse's head
1668
01:25:40,344 --> 01:25:41,891
to further my career.
1669
01:25:42,054 --> 01:25:44,728
How many of you people have got the brass cojones
1670
01:25:44,890 --> 01:25:46,187
to try something like that?
1671
01:25:48,143 --> 01:25:49,360
Follow him. Follow him. Stay with him.
1672
01:25:49,519 --> 01:25:51,112
I don't know where he's going.
1673
01:25:51,271 --> 01:25:52,944
[Frank] All of these people, I'm sure, have incredible families.
1674
01:25:53,106 --> 01:25:54,699
But I have...
1675
01:25:54,858 --> 01:25:57,281
Look, I got a great brother. Look at this guy here.
1676
01:25:57,444 --> 01:25:59,446
My brother, James. Look how cute he was back then.
1677
01:25:59,613 --> 01:26:00,785
[all exclaiming]
1678
01:26:00,947 --> 01:26:02,415
[Frank] He's lots bigger now.
1679
01:26:02,574 --> 01:26:04,372
And look at me with the ears,
1680
01:26:04,534 --> 01:26:06,707
the taxi driving down the street with the doors open.
1681
01:26:06,870 --> 01:26:08,247
Thank God my hair grew in, huh?
1682
01:26:08,413 --> 01:26:09,790
Not yet.
1683
01:26:09,956 --> 01:26:12,254
I got this for Christmas today from him.
1684
01:26:12,417 --> 01:26:14,135
I gave him a towel.
1685
01:26:14,753 --> 01:26:16,972
The VCR is from Grace, James.
1686
01:26:19,925 --> 01:26:22,098
You were right about everything, OK?
1687
01:26:23,804 --> 01:26:24,976
Except...
1688
01:26:27,432 --> 01:26:28,979
the S. S. Minnow, James.
1689
01:26:29,142 --> 01:26:32,021
What was the ship that brought them all to Gilligan's Island?
1690
01:26:32,187 --> 01:26:33,530
The S. S. Minnow.
1691
01:26:34,272 --> 01:26:36,274
No points this round, James.
1692
01:26:36,608 --> 01:26:37,609
- Shit. - What?
1693
01:26:37,776 --> 01:26:40,495
- Wait a minute. - How did he know we were playing that?
1694
01:26:40,654 --> 01:26:41,871
Hello, Wendie.
1695
01:26:44,658 --> 01:26:46,001
[ringing]
1696
01:26:46,159 --> 01:26:47,160
Ouch.
1697
01:26:47,327 --> 01:26:49,500
Hello, um, control room! How can I help you?
1698
01:26:49,663 --> 01:26:51,040
This is Rhinelander.
1699
01:26:51,206 --> 01:26:54,176
I want to talk to the idiot who put that moron on the air.
1700
01:26:54,334 --> 01:26:57,087
Oh, um, Brice Cummings is the idiot, sir.
1701
01:26:57,254 --> 01:27:00,633
But he can't talk to you right now 'cause he's tied up.
1702
01:27:01,717 --> 01:27:02,718
Uh-huh.
1703
01:27:02,884 --> 01:27:06,730
Yes, in fact, he just said that you were a flatulating butthead-.
1704
01:27:06,888 --> 01:27:08,014
A butthead?
1705
01:27:08,181 --> 01:27:10,400
He said he never felt that way about a man before
1706
01:27:10,559 --> 01:27:12,778
but he really liked you in a certain way...
1707
01:27:12,936 --> 01:27:14,654
- [mumbling] - [cat yowling]
1708
01:27:15,522 --> 01:27:16,774
Oh.
1709
01:27:17,482 --> 01:27:20,782
Whoa, I dropped her! Just kidding. She's a doll. It's OK.
1710
01:27:20,944 --> 01:27:22,070
[all laughing]
1711
01:27:22,237 --> 01:27:25,286
It's all right. It's a party. Come on, it's Christmas Eve!
1712
01:27:25,449 --> 01:27:26,826
- [all cheering] - Lighten up a little bit.
1713
01:27:26,992 --> 01:27:30,041
Billy, we are gonna need champagne for 250 people.
1714
01:27:30,203 --> 01:27:33,002
And please send the stuff that you send to me.
1715
01:27:33,165 --> 01:27:35,085
Don't send the stuff that I send to other people.
1716
01:27:35,167 --> 01:27:37,920
You know, it's not too late on Christmas Eve to have fun.
1717
01:27:38,086 --> 01:27:40,134
You can call people that you haven't seen.
1718
01:27:40,297 --> 01:27:41,640
You can call a college roommate,
1719
01:27:41,798 --> 01:27:43,800
you can call, you know, an old army buddy.
1720
01:27:43,967 --> 01:27:45,184
Keep that tape rolling.
1721
01:27:45,343 --> 01:27:46,703
You can call your personal banker.
1722
01:27:47,095 --> 01:27:50,941
Hey! I don't hear any partying in that booth, Eliot!
1723
01:27:51,099 --> 01:27:52,271
Great!
1724
01:27:54,770 --> 01:27:55,987
You heard him! Party!
1725
01:27:56,146 --> 01:27:57,568
Now, why wasn't I invited?
1726
01:27:57,731 --> 01:28:00,780
Now that was just an innocent window, and you saw what I did to that.
1727
01:28:01,359 --> 01:28:02,736
You know who you're dealing with?
1728
01:28:02,903 --> 01:28:06,203
I mean, it's a night. You've got to party hearty, Marty.
1729
01:28:06,364 --> 01:28:08,833
Look at this. Check this out.
1730
01:28:09,743 --> 01:28:11,290
Don't be so mean.
1731
01:28:11,953 --> 01:28:14,376
Look at this. There's a rule.
1732
01:28:14,539 --> 01:28:18,885
There's a tradition that says I have to kiss this girl on the lips.
1733
01:28:19,127 --> 01:28:21,255
Well, she's just upholding the law.
1734
01:28:21,421 --> 01:28:24,550
It's a federal law actually, it's not just a state thing.

1740
01:28:38,980 --> 01:28:41,199
Boy, that was very good.
1741
01:28:41,817 --> 01:28:42,909
But you know what?
1742
01:28:43,068 --> 01:28:44,866
It wasn't great.
1743
01:28:45,904 --> 01:28:47,372
There has only been one great.
1744
01:28:49,825 --> 01:28:52,704
There is a girl that I wish I were with tonight.
1745
01:28:52,869 --> 01:28:55,713
It's a girl that I loved a long time ago.
1746
01:28:57,916 --> 01:28:59,668
A girl that I still love.
1747
01:29:00,126 --> 01:29:03,505
It's Christmas Eve. It's not too late, is it?
1748
01:29:05,340 --> 01:29:06,933
Claire, do you remember?
1749
01:29:07,092 --> 01:29:09,845
- [all cheering] - Remember the Kama Sutra, page 19?
1750
01:29:10,011 --> 01:29:11,888
Legs around like this, then this thing here.
1751
01:29:12,055 --> 01:29:14,899
You circle me chanting, burning incense, before we begin.
1752
01:29:15,058 --> 01:29:16,150
[all hooting]
1753
01:29:16,309 --> 01:29:18,437
Remember I said it ain't possible?
1754
01:29:18,603 --> 01:29:20,981
Tonight I think we could do this without
1755
01:29:21,147 --> 01:29:24,401
serious physical or psychological damage.
1756
01:29:24,901 --> 01:29:26,278
[Claire] Taxi!
1757
01:29:29,197 --> 01:29:31,450
Can you get me to the IBC building in three minutes?
1758
01:29:31,616 --> 01:29:33,084

[all laughing]
1767
01:30:02,230 --> 01:30:03,732
Now, how did that happen?
1768
01:30:03,899 --> 01:30:06,743
That happened because it's Christmas Eve. I'm telling you!
1769
01:30:06,902 --> 01:30:08,370
I'm not crazy.
1770
01:30:08,737 --> 01:30:09,738
It's Christmas Eve!
1771
01:30:09,905 --> 01:30:13,660
It's... it's the one night of the year when we all act a little nicer,
1772
01:30:13,825 --> 01:30:16,374
we smile a little easier,
1773
01:30:16,536 --> 01:30:19,039
we cheer a little more.
1774
01:30:19,497 --> 01:30:22,091
For a couple of hours out of the whole year,
1775
01:30:22,250 --> 01:30:25,845
we are the people that we always hoped we would be.
1776
01:30:26,630 --> 01:30:28,507
It's a miracle.
1777
01:30:28,673 --> 01:30:30,471
It's really a sort of a miracle
1778
01:30:30,634 --> 01:30:32,932
because it happens every Christmas Eve.
1779
01:30:33,178 --> 01:30:36,523
And if you waste that miracle, you're gonna burn for it.
1780
01:30:36,681 --> 01:30:38,604
I know what I'm talking about.
1781
01:30:38,767 --> 01:30:41,486
You have to do something. You have to take a chance.
1782
01:30:41,645 --> 01:30:44,319
You do have to get involved. There are people that are having...
1783
01:30:44,481 --> 01:30:46,575
...having trouble making their miracle happen.
1784
01:30:46,733 --> 01:30:48,573
There are people that don't have enough to eat.
1785
01:30:48,610 --> 01:30:49,850
There are people that are cold.
1786
01:30:49,945 --> 01:30:52,243
You can go out and say hello to these people.
1787
01:30:52,405 --> 01:30:55,329
You can take an old blanket out of the closet and say, "Here."
1788
01:30:55,492 --> 01:30:58,166
You can make them a sandwich and say, "Oh, by the way, here."
1789
01:30:58,328 --> 01:31:00,296
I get it now!
1790
01:31:00,622 --> 01:31:02,670
And if you... if you give,
1791
01:31:03,458 --> 01:31:06,587
then it can happen. Then the miracle can happen to you!
1792
01:31:06,753 --> 01:31:08,426
It's not just the poor and the hungry,
1793
01:31:08,588 --> 01:31:11,057
it's... it's everybody who's gotta have this miracle!
1794
01:31:11,216 --> 01:31:12,968
And it can happen tonight for all of you!
1795
01:31:13,134 --> 01:31:16,354
If you believe in this spirit thing, the miracle will happen.
1796
01:31:16,513 --> 01:31:18,481
And then you'll want it to happen again tomorrow.
1797
01:31:18,640 --> 01:31:20,062
You won't be one of these bastards who says,
1798
01:31:20,225 --> 01:31:23,229
"Christmas is once a year, it's a fraud." It's not!
1799
01:31:23,395 --> 01:31:26,649
It can happen every day! You've just gotta want that feeling!
1800
01:31:26,815 --> 01:31:30,160
And if you like it and you want it, you'll get greedy for it!
1801
01:31:30,318 --> 01:31:34,198
You'll want it every day of your life, and it can happen to you!
1802
01:31:34,614 --> 01:31:36,457
I don't... I believe in it now!
1803
01:31:36,616 --> 01:31:39,916
I believe it's gonna happen to me now! I'm ready for it!
1804
01:31:41,246 --> 01:31:44,090
And it's great. It's a good feeling.
1805
01:31:44,249 --> 01:31:47,753
It's... it's really better than I've felt in a long time.
1806
01:31:49,921 --> 01:31:51,514
I'm ready.
1807
