Bird On A Wire Page #7

It"s designed as a bomb shelter.

No one can get in here.

Go and lock yourselves in.

Don"t come out till it"s quiet.

- Where are you going, Rick?

- I don"t know, Lou.

How about the zoo? They got guns there.

- You know every inch of the way.

- That"s a good idea.

Zoo.

Hello?

Hurry up!

You got nothing to fear. Joe Weyburn.

- Aren"t those guys gonna follow us?

- Damn well better.

They"ve changed the code.

Not now!

- How did you...?

- I can"t believe I did that.

- Come on.

- Wait.

You didn"t see us, Bob, okay?

That"s gotta be them.

Be careful.

Stationery.

Where is it?

Where do they put these things?

- They used to have real guns here.

- What"s that?

That"s a tranquilizer gun.

l"m sorry.

l"m sorry I did this to you.

I called them on you.

That"s all right.

I should be apologizing to you.

It"s probably for the best.

- Fifteen years is long enough.

- Yeah, it is.

Lock the doors and stay in here

no matter what you see.

Don"t come out. Just stay in here.

If you see me do this,

I want you to hit this button.

See what it does?

See those lights there? It turns them on.

Just like that, okay?

Keep your head down.

Please live through this.

I can"t go to another one of your funerals.

You remember, you stay in here.

"Cause it"s a zoo out there.

Which one did he say?

Rick? It"s Joe Weyburn.

We don"t mean you any harm.

We just want to talk.

Welcome to the tropical rain forest.

We have assembled a collection

of flora and fauna...

...indigenous to both the South American

rain forest and the African Savannah.

There.

Sh*t!

Think I got him!

Gotta stop this thing somehow.

Go get that girl!

Yeah!

Wake up! All of ya! Get up!

Rise and shine! Get up!

Come on, fellas. Give me a hand.

Shut up! Get back.

Shut up!

Sh*t.

Excuse me.

Surprise!

Come on. Hands behind your head.

Fingers clenched.

Now!

What is that sh*t? Get over there!

Spread them!

I got him! I got Jarmin!

What do you need him for?

Why don"t you...

No, buddy, this is his kill.

Means a lot to him.

My head.

I got your lady here.

Come out, or l"II throw her to the tigers.

You"re wrong, Rick,

if you think I won"t do it!

Don"t you even want to watch?

l"d hate for you to miss this.

Fifteen years!

Fifteen years l"ve waited for this!

It"s me.

It"s me. Take my hand.

Please!

I can"t hold on.

Yes, you can. Come on, honey.

You can do it.

Just pull me towards you.

l"m sorry I can"t get you out of this.

Me, too. Listen.

l"m free now. I could marry you.

You liar. You wouldn"t marry me.

I could if you"d just

put a little extra effort in.

A little extra effort?

Instead of just watching the father

of your children become tiger meat!

- Children?

- Children.

Are you all right, honey?

Who are you?

Look at me.

Rick, look at me. L"m Marianne.

Remember we were gonna get married

and have children?

l"m pleased to meet you, Marianne.

You dirty rat! Don"t even try

to weasel out of this one.

- L"II sue you for breach of promise!

- I haven"t got any money.

- What"II you get, my underpants?

- I want your underpants.

I got something I want to show you.

Get up. Get your lazy ass off.

You"ve heard that expression:

"'Something old, something new,

something borrowed and something..."'

Very blue.

Mr. Wiggly is unfurled.

And if that"s not a hint, what is?
