That was great, girls.

I remember when I was a young man....

♪ (Jaunty, upbeat music)

I just don't understand those kids.

Well, if you had to listen
to their music....

Did you see those chaperones?
They were built like Khrushchev.

(Casey) They weren't as bad
as those D.O.M.s.

I got the money.

- 300 bucks.
- One more high-school hop and I split.

Hey, don't bogart the joint, friends.

Cool it, man.
I need it more than you.

I don't know.
Maybe all you need is love.

Casey, let's split. The principal's gonna
hit me with a couple caps of acid.

- You coming?
- Yeah.

Do you believe those kids,
making it all the time?

(Pet) Don't get so upset, Casey.
You know how Kelly is.

- Are you trying to make love to me?
- Hell, no.

- Then what are you trying to do?
- I'm trying not to.

Well, if you wanna make love,
then let's make love.

Here?

(Kelly)
No, in L.A.

- (Harris) L.A. ?
- (Kelly) Where is that?

- (Harris) We'd get crushed.
- (Kelly) No.

- (Harris) Smog. Can't see.
- (Kelly) Climb a tall tree.

- Lousy traffic.
- Love to walk.

- No culture.

(Music fading out)

So all we need now
is your long-lost Aunt...

- ...what's her name?
- Her name is Susan Lake.

This batch has more snap.
Run the rest at the same ASA.

- (Woman) Long distance, Miss Lake.
- (Susan) Hello? Who?

Q-U-A-N-T. In London.

Yeah, that's correct.
As quickly as possible.

Susan, dear, we must have a chat.
The bodice is so wrong.

- Doesn't she look like a cow?
- The fact is, Cynthia is not a boy.

Take off your bra, dear.
That will flatten you some.

Oh Gordon, have her put it back on.
Betty, tell him it's impossible.

Gordon, she looks exactly the same
with or without the bra.

- Porter, explain this contract to me.
- (Porter) We can't get three years.

They'll go two and a half.
The editor tells me that is final.

- People!
- (Porter) I need some time with you.

(Susan) Can we discuss it at dinner?
That'll give you time to talk to Vogue.

- Anything we can do for you?
- That's OK...

- ...I can come back.
- Out with it. We're not that frantic.

- I'm your niece.
- You're Catherine's daughter?

My name's Kelly Mac Namara.

Susan! Susan!
I am simply in a rage!

(Susan) How did your mother learn
about Aunt Claire?

The Worcester paper is where she heard
about Aunt Claire's death and about...

...you and Baxter Wolfe
and the inheritance.

- What inheritance was that?
- Mine. I was last in line after my sister.

Your mother disappeared. We were never
really close. I was 14 years younger.

Now that you've come along,
I think that part of it should be yours.

Susan.

Susan, you know there was
no provision in the will.

- Thousand Island?
- No, thank you.

You're a lawyer. You should
know that wills are just paper.

I'm a lawyer, yes. And any changes
Aunt Claire would or might have made...

- ...have no validity in law.
- Porter, of course I know that.

Kelly, there was nearly a million dollars.
I know this isn't the time or place...

...but since Porter's made such a
point of it, I can't see why...

...say, a third of it shouldn't be yours.

- A third of a million dollars?
- The two of us are the only survivors.

I don't see why you should have to pay
for the sins of your mother.

Sins that seem to me that were really
committed by the rest of the family.

- That's a big idea to get used to.
- I'll have Porter draw up the papers.

I have a marvellous idea.
Ronnie Barzell's throwing a party tonight.

Ronnie Barzell?
You mean Z-Man Barzell?

The one, the only, the original.

Susan, I've got friends in a rock group.

It would mean so much for them to
meet Z-Man. Can I invite them?

- Don't tell me you're a groupie.
- The other way. It's my group.

Now, let me be sure I fully understand
this. You are a rock'n'roll singer?

- Why? Is that a no-no?
- My dear young lady....

Porter, you have an unending capacity
for counterfeit astonishment.

Of course you can invite your friends.
There's a phone in the living room.

I think that Ronnie's address is in
my book under the B's.

Great!
I'm not dressed for a party, though.

We're about the same size,
and I got loads of things in my closet.

Call your friends
and slip into anything you like. OK?

Oh, groovy! Thanks.

Susan, have you taken
leave of your senses?

Some anonymous rock'n'roll singer
drops in here out of the clear blue sky...

...and you fall for a lie.

You won't believe this, but we've been
invited to a party at Z-Man Barzell's.

- Is this for real?
- Get Casey and Pet, and meet me there.

This creature marches in without a cent
to her name and a dubious pedigree...

...and without a moment's thought...

...you recklessly dispose
of a third of your money.

- Porter, let me handle this.
- The party starts when you get there.

- Susan, please.
- We're late already.

- They banned my last film in Cincinnati.
- Groovy town.

When I'm with you, pussycat,
who needs grass?

You'd have to see it to believe it.
Of course, I nearly choked.

- And then this bitch took a drink...
- He's bothered every woman at the bar.

Do you know what happened
after he drank a Fresca?

- He snowed in his pants.
- You know what he uses for deodorant?

- Raid.
- Cool, man.

My old man really blew his mind. He said
he'd kill me if he found any more grass.

- Escape, man.
- All right!

- And you're a moonchild.
- And you're a bitch.

- I think it's better after the change.
- I'm with you.

I was ready to roll over and fall asleep.

Then Tony said, "Come over to my pad.

- I've got a wading pool of mayonnaise!"
- Mayonnaise?

I found the European women
far more receptive and less hung-up.

- She went after me like a barracuda.
- I warned you, you old fruit.

- (Woman) Classics Benjamin.
- Bad trip.

- It wasn't long, but four inches thick.
- Ever been whipped with a wand...

- ...until the blood came?
- Cool it! You'll rupture your tongue.

Feel it, my pretty?
The night is filled with magic.

- Mark my words, dove, tonight is special.
- I was so anxious, I stepped on her face.

Susan, Porter, how are you?

Ronnie, see who's here.

- I'll say it. Haven't I seen you before?
- You saw her at my studio this afternoon.

- Ronnie, this is my niece, Kelly.
- Every inch as ugly as you are, Susan.

Must run in the family.

I'd like you to meet Vanessa,
my escort and bodyguard.

- Pleasure.
- Come on, babe. I'll show you the dump.

Come with me, I want to show you
the most divine clairvoyant.

♪ ...that the people
all called L.A.

♪ Went to school
in the great big city...

- What can I get you, juice or grass?
- Just a vodka and tonic, please.

Look there.
The infamous Ashley St. Ives...

...famous for her portrayals
in prettily pornographic pictures.

See how she gives her body
to the ritual? Delicious.

Observe in yon quiet corner, an island
of tranquility in this sea of revelry.

The languid Roxanne finds beauty,
that delicate pinch of feminine spice...

...with which she so often flavours
her interludes.

Look there. Lance Rocke.
Greek god and part-time actor.

See how well he performs?
His is a special talent.

The golden hair, the bedroom eyes,
the firm young body.

These are the tools with which he plies
his trade. All are available for a price.

Beware, fair maiden, of Emerson Thorne.
Behind that friendly mask...

...lies fermenting the unholy seed
of a lawyer.

See there, behind the bar, the man
with the benign Germanic countenance?

Could that be
another face of Martin Bormann?

I've been to parties where they danced
to records by The Strawberry Alarm Clock.

But this is the first time The Strawberry
Alarm Clock's ever been to the party.

What are you shelling out?
I hear the minimum is four thou.

- I get them for free. They're mine.
- Wow. Really?

Here, have some grass.
Aunt Susan won't see you.

No, thanks, man. In a scene like this,
you get a contact high!

This is my happening
and it freaks me out!

It's a stone gas, man.

Pray, we must make haste.
My time is not my own.

Before the clock strikes 12.
I must be back at Forest Lawn.

Come, I know of a cosy
little dungeon...

...where just the two of us can curl up
with the chains and a spider.

Delighted to see my hostages
in such happy dalliance.

Pray, let them joust in peace.

You're not helping the situation any,
I must say.

Out. Out. Count Dracula relishes
an audience, only one at a time.

- Have fun.
- What is this, a studio tour?

- This looks like the...
- Master's bedroom.

(Horns blowing)

Can you dig it?
Follow me, my dear.

Let me show you
one of my preoccupations.

And this is the master's bath.

(Gasps)

(Ronnie)
Come on.

- Sorry to disturb you.
- (Man) It's cool, baby.

Hey, I've heard about trees growing
in Brooklyn, but ferns in the biffy?

- Class.
- The idea came to me in a vision.

- Every morning, I luxuriate in my bath.
- I dig, man. You're on an ego trip.

But what about the ferns?

Let's call them tropical varieties.
They thrive on the humidity...

...and they never let me forget
that all Los Angeles is a jungle.

Casey Anderson, huh?
No relation to Senator Casey Anderson?

He's my father.

I'll bet he's highly amused
that his daughter's a hippie?

- I'm in a rock group.
- And that's your uniform?

And that's yours?

At least it's not a uniform
worn by freaks.

So the senator's daughter
is a rock'n'roll singer, huh?

Say, do you and your friends shack up
in a minibus, or aren't things that cosy?

♪ I'm comin' home ♪

(Roxanne) I couldn't help but notice
your little run-in with Porter Hall.

- Men.
- Ninety-nine percent.

Casey, I'd like to design something
for you.

Why don't you
stop by my studio sometime?

It's a trip to design for a good figure
once in a while.

Anyway, you could imagine
how this woman feels...

...when she finds out
that her 17-year-old son...

...is making it
with one of her best friends.

Now, you have to remember that she...

...has a young lover of her own.

So it makes her take
a long look at her whole scheme.

That's why in my new film,
they drag in this whole thing...

...about the lack of communication
between parents and kids.

Well, now, Harris, we meet again.

"Come into my den,"
said the spider, et cetera.

- I was looking for somebody.
- Anybody I know?

Where do you get this "anybody
I know" business?

From one of those pornographic
movies you star in?

You mean my controversial
box-office blockbusters?

Ashley St. Ives.
I saw one of your movies once.

I think it was the one
about the teenage incest triangle.

You'll have to help me
on the research for the next one.

- So you're an ear freak?
- Name some more.

All right, then.
How about a toe freak?

I need it. I want it.

A beautiful woman
kissing me between the toes.

People who wear sandals
must not get very many volunteers.

- I could change.
- Into something more titillating?

That sounds vaguely obscene.

You're a groovy boy.
I'd like to strap you on sometime.

And if there's anything I can't stand,
it's vagueness.

Harris.

A deathly dry gin martini.

- But I thought we had another case.
- Excuse me, have you seen Kelly?

No, the last time I saw her
she was wandering around with Z-Man.

- They can be anywhere.
- Thanks.

Get yourself in gear, baby.
These people are dying of thirst.

Look, I'll tell you what I'll do.
I'll check. OK?

- But, Lance, I gave you $1200 last week.
- I want $12,000, baby.

(Crowd clapping)

- I'm sorry.
- Perfect timing.

I was looking for the john.

Z-Man Barzell is a very rich cat, but
he doesn't have a john in the kitchen.

- Maybe I was looking for a sandwich.
- This ain't no welfare line.

Then what are you standing in it for?

- Getting my thing together.
- You putting me on?

Unmasked again.
He poses as a busboy...

...but in real life,
he's Emerson Thorne...

...ambitious young law student...

...who studies by day
and waits by night.

I was going to say something smart-ass,
but, all of a sudden, you know what?

No. What?

Suddenly, I knew you
weren't putting me on...

...that you were Emerson Thorne,
ambitious young law student...

...and all that crap.

What about that kiss
and all that crap?

There's more where that came from,
Emerson Thorne.

You're into a heavy scene.
Don't sweat it. It can be a drag.

- Am I interrupting something?
- (Kelly) Harris!

Only a little make-out session
between Count Dracula...

- ...and Mary Wollstonecraft Shelley.
- Hey, man.

Ronnie Barzell, I'd like you
to meet Harris Allsworth, my....

- My manager.
- Manager, eh?

Any friend of Mary Wollstonecraft Shelley
is a friend of mine.

- Manager?
- The Kelly Affair.

The Kelly Affair?

You mean, you're the Kelly?
Little did I suspect I was in the presence.

Still, that name won't do, you know.
It's awfully 1950s.

- Might as well call them The Haircuts.
- Kelly, I'm ready to leave.

Leave? No. You have not yet
graced our gathering with a song.

Come, my dove, I must present you
to the faithful. Now!

Ladies and gentlemen,
an announcement if you please.

There is a new rock group in the house.

Their name, The Kelly Affair. Well, even
their best friends don't like their name.

Still, as the teen tycoon of rock, I'd like
to hear them and I'm sure you would too.

The Kelly Affair.

I'd like to strap you on sometime.

- (Kelly) We killed them, didn't we?
- (Ronnie) You've reached the star...

...beat the unbeatable foe. The Times
and free-press critics will pay homage.

Ronnie, we owe everything to you, man!

My fine countess,
your melodious voice...

...surpasses even the
haunting pipes of Circe.

Beauteous Pet of triumph,
you were a thunderstorm.

Casey, mistress fair...

...this stringed assault has left
my ears fiercely vibrating. Majestic!

- You played some funky drums out there.
- I'm glad you dug it.

- (Lance) What's not to dig?
- Did you hear the wondrous miracle...

- ...wrought by my muses?
- You've done it again, Ronnie.

(Ronnie)
Again and again.

Porter, methinks this brew is not
for your more delicate sensibilities.

Courage, Camille.

Excuse me, Casey, did you
hear the crowd? You were great.

- Thank you.
- (Roxanne) Just great.

- I'm really happy.
- And you, the infamous Ashley St. Ives...

...high priestess of carnality,
what thinkest thou of our minstrels?

Congratulations, Ronnie.
They were heavy.

Make haste, my supple countess.

The last flight to Shangri-la leaves
within the hour. Hasten, hasten!

- Come on, Casey. Let's go.
- I'll talk to you later, okay?

Does not the moment
amuse you, Kracow?

Hasten, ere the portcullis
bars your entrance to Elsinore.

(Pet)
Here, let me help you.

- Pet, where's Emerson?
- Cramming for bar exams.

When are you two gonna shack up?

As soon as he can move me
into the law library.

(Chuckling)

- Hey, there's another party at Z-Man's.
- (Casey) So, what else is new?

Like every night. Deal me out.

- What's the matter, babe?
- Nothing. Just beat.

All I want is some peace and quiet,
and that's one thing Z-Man can't offer.

Have a ball.
I'll see you tomorrow.

(Pet)
Ciao.

- Good night.
- (Roxanne) Case?

- (Kelly) Got any more grass, man?
- I scored this afternoon.

The cat swore up and down
it was Acapulco Gold.

- If we're lucky, maybe it's at least pot.
- Or we'll get an oregano high.

- Weren't you with Emerson all afternoon?
- I was.

- I thought he was at the law library.
- He was.

So, like, when did you score, man?

Well, Emerson slipped me
a graduate-student pass.

I went back in the stacks to do some
research in the rare book collection.

- And who do I run into but my score?
- Cool, man. That's getting it together.

- Yeah. See you later, Kel.
- OK.

- Hi, babe. Coming to the party tonight?
- What party?

Everyone's splitting for Z-Man's.

- Everybody?
- You bugged, man?

- Yeah.
- What's the matter, baby?

- Things happened tonight.
- Sure.

- So?
- So where do I fit in, Kelly?

- I don't dig.
- There once was a time...

...maybe you can remember,
when I was your manager...

...not the next thing
to a goddamn groupie.

Come along to Z-Man's.
Do you good.

Move it out, Kelly.

- Be right there.
- (Ronnie) I will meet you out by the car.

I gotta split, man.

- Say, Miss Mac Namara?
- Uh-huh?

You were great.
You really turned them on.

Oh, thanks.

Don't I know you from somewhere?
Don't tell me your name. You're....

- Lance. Lance Rocke.
- That's it!

Coming to the party
at Z-Man's tonight?

I don't know.

What do you think, Miriam?
Feel like a party?

Not really, Lance.

Sounds divine,
but it's past my bedtime.

That's a shame, Miriam.

It's gonna be so much fun.

- You sure?
- As sure as sure can be.

Well, at least let me call you a cab.

What do you say, everybody?
Let's do it.

(Car starts)

- Going my way?
- I'm skipping the party. I'm going home.

I'm skipping the party too. Why don't
you climb in, unless you have a ride?

- Don't put yourself out. I can hitch.
- We're going the same way.

Come on. Get in.

Turn left at the next street.

Mine's the one on the right
with the bright lights.

- So?
- Thanks a lot, Ashley.

Don't I even deserve
a good night kiss?

Let's go inside.

- What's wrong with the Rolls?
- Not when my bed's handy.

- I want you right here.
- At least we can park in the driveway.

Well, pneumatic.

- Aunt Susan?
- Yeah, Aunt Susan.

- She'd flip out to hear you say that.
- I doubt it.

- Lance?
- Yeah?

- I'm thinking of cutting my hair.
- Well, don't.

Why not?

I wanna love you for more than money.

- What do you mean?
- You know what I mean, the millions.

- The Lake millions.
- You know a lot about me, don't you?

- There's no secrets at Z-Man's.
- I gently suggested to Aunt Susan...

- ...that the millions could go screw.
- You what?

- You heard me.
- Wow, baby, that was really dumb.

And how come you're
only getting a third?

You ought to be getting half,
and you know it.

- Why should I get anything at all?
- You earned it.

Getting shafted all your life while all
those relatives lived it up in Worcester.

- You know a lot about my family.
- Like I say...

...there aren't many secrets
around here.

Kelly. Now listen, Kelly.

I'm gonna give you some free advice.
baby, and you'd better take it.

The noble Porter Hall is trying
to get his lunch hooks on that dough.

He's screwing you, baby,
not Susan Lake.

That girl Kelly Mac Namara is a tramp.

She was living in a single room
with three other individuals.

One of them was a male.
And the other two?

Well, the other two were females.

God only knows what they
were up to in there.

And furthermore,
I wouldn't be surprised to learn...

...that all four of them
habitually smoke marijuana cigarettes.

- Reefers.
- I'm Kelly Mac Namara, Ms. Lake's niece.

- Hi, I'm glad to know you.
- Thanks. She in? Can I see her?

I'll see.

- Miss Lake, Miss Mac Namara.
- Besides, if Kelly does turn on...

- Send her in.
- You may go in now, Miss Mac Namara.

- Thanks. Bye.
- Bye.

Now you try to contain
yourself, Porter.

- I hope I'm not interrupting anything.
- Come in, Kelly. Porter's all steamed up.

- Too much partying.
- (Porter) You listen to me, hippie.

I don't know who you are
or where you came from...

...but if you don't withdraw your
morbid interest in Miss Lake's affairs...

- ...I shall be forced to take legal action.
- Man, I doubt if you'd recognise a hippie.

I'm a capitalist, baby.

I work for my living,
not suck off somebody else.

Not a penny, Miss Mac Namara.
Not a single penny. I promise you that.

- You're making a fool of yourself.
- A tramp with the morals of an alley cat.

- Up yours, ratso!
- Not a single penny. It's not her money.

Even if she is who she claims to be,
her behaviour's disgusting.

- I'll take half a million dollars, man!
- What was that?

You heard me. Half a million dollars
and not a penny less.

How can you be so blind, Susan?
I met her type before.

The little innocent face and smile.
The little, sweet virgin-whore.

Porter, why are you acting like this?
She's only a child!

It's got to be, Susan.

It's gotta be half.
Half a million dollars.

Mom never wanted it,
but she should have had it.

That's the way it's gotta be.

Precedent for a defendant waiving

What did you say
before you lost your cool?

Because I'm the ballsiest cat
you ever did meet.

Right on!

(Phone ringing)

Kelly? I mean Miss Mac Namara.
Good morning, Porter Hall here.

Hello?

- Who was it, baby?
- Porter Hall.

(Phone ringing)

- (Lance) See what the ace has got to say.
- (Porter) We were cut off.

I'm terribly sorry about that scene
in Susan's office yesterday.

Certainly, I never remotely intended
to give the impression...

...I must have left.

There are so many things I feel
we have in common...

...that I'd appreciate it very much
if we could have a drink...

...perhaps sometime this afternoon
and discuss them.

Have the drink. Go ahead.

- OK, Mr. Hall.
- Excellent. That pleases me very much.

- And where shall we meet?
- Tell him O'Rourke's. O'Rourke's.

- O'Rourke's.
- O'Rourke's?

- Yeah, near City College.
- Fine. And at what time?

- 3:00, I guess. Tell him 3.
- I'll be there about 3.

See you then. Bye.

You did good, beautiful.

You know the mother's up to something.
Here's your chance to really shaft him.

Think so?

I know so.

I'll be out of here by 3,
in case you need the place.

Why do I do everything you tell me?

I don't know. Why do you?

I can't help myself.
You've made me into a whore.

And you dig it, you little freak.

Kelly, I'm so pleased
that you agreed to meet me.

That scene yesterday? I've already told
you how perfectly dreadful I feel about it.

I made certain allegations
that I can only deeply apologise for.

- ID?
- I'm having a coffee.

A very dry vodka martini for me.
Make it a double, please.

Of course we've had our
misunderstandings, but who hasn't?

I believe they call it the generation gap.
In my day, they called it something else.

I can remember when my father raised
the dickens over me. I was a devil then.

Came home in a pinch-back suit. He
thought I'd gone the way of Oscar Wilde.

(Porter chuckles)

- That'll be $1.20.
- Start a tab for me, will you please?

- Would you like something stronger?
- They don't serve it in bars.

Hey, got a quarter?

♪ (Jazz playing)

Perhaps it's just as well.

In any event, I didn't ask you
to meet me today simply to apologise.

I also wanted to discuss this financial
misunderstanding we're enmeshed in.

Now, as Miss Lake's adviser,
I have her best interests at heart.

However, I want to suggest
a business arrangement.

An arrangement that would be
the greatest benefit to all concerned.

Now, I've taken the liberty
of drawing up this document.

By which, in return for the handsome
consideration of $50,000 immediately...

...you would agree to discontinue,
or, should I say, no longer press charges.

Kelly.

- Kelly, please let me finish.
- You are finished, cheap swindler.

You and Susan Lake
and your documents.

Wait, I assure you, Susan Lake
had absolutely no knowledge of this.

Congratulations. I didn't think you had
the balls to go sneaking behind her back.

- Kelly, please.
- Oh, get!

McHugh, throw me a bar rag.

- A clean one.
- Coming at you.

Porter, I'm sorry I lost my temper.

It was my fault bringing you here.
Tell you what...

...let's go to my place. We can talk
some more about your document.

- Want some?
- What is it?

Oh, Porter.
You mean you don't know what it is?

Of course I know what it is.

Porter, don't waste it!
Look, look, let me show you.

Draw in. That's it. Hold it here.

That's it. Now blow it out.

Let me show you.
Look. Like this.

See? Now you do it.

See? Deep down.
Deep down here.

Porter, you're so cute.

I think I'll change into something
more comfortable.

And here I am without a good cut man
in my corner.

I sure could use old Dan Florio right now,
because without the cut man...

...I might get a little slice under the eye.
Don't mean anything.

It'd stop the fight.
It don't seem reasonable somehow.

I'm throwing in the towel.

(Casey)
Roxanne, you've been so kind.

I don't know who else

would have been so wonderful.

I need you very much.

Checkmate.

There is no way I can move.

- Another game?
- Not just now. Maybe a little later.

- How do you feel today?
- All right. Maybe a little better.

- Is all the stiffness gone?
- Pretty much so.

Look, Kelly, don't feel you have to
stay around here and keep me company.

You must have a thousand things to do.

I don't have anything to do that's more
important than this, Harris. Dig?

You're racing through life
full steam ahead, not giving a damn...

...then something happens
to make you stop short.

And you realise that people
are what count.

You're important to me, Harris.

- I'm available too.
- (Ronnie) Swell, Lance. Very good.

Why don't you hie over
to my place about 9?

(Snoring)

Lance?

- No way, lady.
- Lance?

Yeah, I'll see you tonight.

(Ronnie) Roxanne? Why don't you drop
over to my place about 9:00 tonight?

Bring your little girl. I'm in the mood
for one of my special private parties.

Since I'd already proposed to her once,
I figured it was just a waste of time.

Oh, Baxter.

And strictly as an afterthought,
it occurred to me that...

- ...I loved her.
- Oh.

Our generation fights the sex revolution
and they get married.

(Emerson)
Ain't that true.

Are you sure you won't stay
and have dinner?

No, thanks. I'd say yes, but tonight
calls for champagne and candlelight.

A toast, a toast, my friends,
to our health and cheer and happiness.

Otto, let the ritual begin.

(Ronnie)
For the queen, so haughty and serene.

- One, two for you, little page.
- What are these for?

To sheathe your body for the court.
And a brutal one for the jungle denizen.

- Come with me. We'll change.
- And the best one of all for me.

- The things that I do for bread.
- Not gold. Affection. Friendship.

The strong mutual bond of the round
table. We are the spirits of the dead...

- ...creatures treading the river Styx.
- I'm here. Doesn't that prove my fealty?

- Doesn't that satisfy you?
- I accept your fealty and nobly return it...

...and beseech you to get thine ass
in gear and garb your angry loins.

OK. OK...

- It is I, Superwoman.
- Far out, Z-Man.

Not Z-Man, Superwoman.
It bodes nothing unless you're serious.

- Come now, let us seek Jungle Lad.
- Hey, rube, it's your party. Let's do it.

Marvellous. It displays you
to such magnificent advantage.

Let's not be jealous, Z-Man.

I don't feel so well.

Only the wine going to your head,
taking those wicked herbs with it.

- What?
- Ancient potion by Merlin the magician.

Just add one part peyote
and some other benign goodies.

- It's used in all the best rituals.
- It's only a small dose, Casey.

You know how Z-Man is.

I mean, Superwoman.
Listen, I'll watch out for you.

No more words, I pray you.
Let the games begin.

Jungle Lad, is it not sufficient

I, who have never before been spurned,
Superwoman.

You wanna know something?
You're right.

You wanna know something else?
I'm gonna take a downer and crash.

You varlet. You serf.
You buggering knave.

How dare you cast aside
my alabaster charms...

Yes, I vow it.

Where is your much vaunted
muscular prowess?

I don't know your story.
And I don't wanna know it.

All I know is, these goddamn ropes
are cutting my wrists...

- ...and I want out now!
- Growl, vassal.

You spoil Superwoman's sport
when you whine and succour me.

Jungle Lad should be silent and mighty,
not a grovelling ant...

...creeping across the malodorous moat.

Besides, methinks you miss the point.
You are doing what I want...

...exactly what I demand, sir.

At last the king of the jungle
comes under the imperious rule...

...of she who is unconquerable:

Superwoman.

How it excites me, your legendary
strength rendered impotent...

...as you grovel before
the greatest superhero of all time.

The man's out of his gourd.

Methinks you remind me
of certain things.

Don't move, you churl.

Don't move a single muscle
of that finely fleshed body.

You're a freak, Barzell.
You're a stone freak!

I'll get you back in spades, Barzell!
I'll get you, you mother!

The vorpal blade goes snicker-snack!
Yes, Jungle Lad...

...meet my friend Excalibur,
mightiest sword of all time.

Forged by Woden, the god of time,
legendary blade of King Arthur.

Hurled into the lake,
it sprang forth again, shining and pure.

But now, now it is wielded by she
who will eclipse all their deeds...

...Arthur, Lancelot and even mighty
Coeur de Lion, Superwoman!

Listen, Ronnie. See, this whole thing

has been a big game.

Right? A big put on.
We've been putting each other on, man!

The trouble is, you think it's for
real, but it's not.

Now, we're friends, aren't we?
Remember, Z-Man? Put the sword away.

Come on, Z-Man, put it away.
You don't need it.

Yeah.

Z-Man? There is no Z-Man, varlet.

And indeed, it is not a game we play.
I am Superwoman!

(Narrator) The act of death has caused
another life to be reborn.

Together, we share the wonder
of human existence.

And let there be no doubt
that all of us are brothers.

There can be no beginning or ending that
does not in some way touch another.

For our actions affect the lives
and destinies of the many.

Z-Man: He forgot that life
has many levels...

...and by choosing to live on only one,
lost sight of reality.

Ashley: Men were toys
for her amusement.

Her total disregard for their feelings
made love a stranger to her.

Lance Rocke:
He never gave of himself.

Those who only take must be prepared
to pay the highest price of all.

Porter Hall used his profession
to mask selfish interests...

...to betray the trust
that should have been sacred.

Susan Lake: Perhaps too pure.

Excessive goodness can often blind us...

...to the human failings
of those less perfect.

Emerson found that something
as precious as love...

...brings with it a demand
for greater understanding.

Casey and Roxanne:
Light and shadow.

Theirs was not an evil relationship.
But evil did come because of it.

Otto:
An end to Martin Bormann?

Harris: He forgot that yesterday
is only for remembering.

Those who choose to live there
lose sight of tomorrow.

Pet's mistake: A fleeting thing,
born of emotion...

yet it almost ruined the lives
of two others

Randy's body: A cage for an animal.
It lifted him to the top of his field...

...but in the end,
the beast almost killed him.

And Kelly?
Her selfish involvement...

...so ready to turn her back on
friendship. The road back is painful.

By her pain,
she will never again forget.

You must each decide
what your life will be.

You must always know that a hand
extended to your fellow man...

...is a gesture of love.

Love that asks nothing, expects nothing.
It is simply there.

And if love is in you,
then gentle will be all your steps...

...as you walk beyond this valley.
