and it's not that I don't care,

but...

I mean, who wouldn't

fall in love with you?

Man:
Whose dumb idea was this?

Woman:
Just keep on looking.

Hey, wait. Stop the car.

For what?

Just stop the car.

What am I stopping the car for?

What... what are you doing?

Man:
What is it? You got to

go to the bathroom or what?

Woman:
Come here.

Bingo.

Want to hear something?

I found this

in my glove compartment.

You like it?

Um, believe it or not, this

is one of the first things

I ever composed

and conducted in college.

I... I was never too crazy about

this section here, you know.

I always thought I should put

some more strings in because...

It's not really dance music.

It's...

Dance music.

I just wish you could

tell me how you feel.

Yeah. Me, too.

Hello.

No, he's not.

Sure, I'll take a message.

Where was his car found?

Where's that?

Oh, yeah.

Thank you. I'll make sure

that he gets the message. Yeah.

Thank you very much, detective.

This is it. This is it!

Oh, she's gonna be so sorry.

She's messed with

the wrong girl.

Nobody makes a fool of me.

What am I doing?

Ok. I'm Patty.

I hate that blouse!

Yes. Perfect.

Ok.

She is dead. She's dead.

She's going to be

one sorry slut.

Oh!

My hat. My hat.

My hat.

So want to play tough?

I can play plenty tough, sister.

Whoa!

Oh!

Ha ha ha!

Ben:
Sorry I didn't

get you out sooner,

but you know grace.

George:
We understand, and

we'll pay you back, I promise.

You boys are the only

ones that can help me.

We've got to get to Jim and

the girl before Winston does.

Wait. You know where they are?

I've got a pretty good idea.

Thank goodness the police

aren't searching the woods

till morning.

All:
The tree house!

I'm embarrassed.

I think this is gonna work.

You tell me if this hurts, ok?

Just let me know.

Ok. Now go ahead. Extend them.

There it is.

According to the book, all your

powers should be restored.

That means you can...

you can leave.

I mean, it makes

sense anyway, doesn't it?

We can't stay here forever.

They're gonna

find us eventually.

When they do, they'll turn

you into a freak show.

I'm sorry. I just don't

think I could take that.

I think it's better that you just

go back to where you belong.

I've got to go back, too.

Right now, Patty must be...

Yeah, I know.

It's all the more

reason for you to leave.

I'm afraid down here,

those are a common occurrence.

Well, it's not gonna

get any easier.

Come on. I'll walk you

to the meadow.

Ugh.

Woman:
I do

angel baby

my angel baby

when you are near me

aaah! Aaah!

Stop it!

Nope. Gone.

What do you think?

I think she's flown the Coop.

Let's keep looking.

Patty:
Aah!

Grr!

Oh, no.

Jim:
Come on now.

Don't play around.

Look, I'm not feeling

too swift,

and I want to get back.

Don't do this to me.

Look, you know how

I feel about you.

It's just that...

Patty?

Hi.

How did you find me?

You look awful.

Thank you.

What happened to you?

I regained my feminine dignity.

Now, where's

that angel b*tch, hmm?

I guess she's gone.

I'm sorry.

I really wanted

you to meet her.

Liar!

Oops.

I suppose I deserved

that for hurting you.

Mmm.

But the angel is gone.

Oh, yeah?

Well, I don't think so.

Uh!

You bastard!

How dare you hit me!

I didn't. I swear I didn't.

Oh, you are gonna

regret that move, mister.

Where's my rifle?

Oh, no, no, no. Patty, come on.

You can't be serious.

Go to hell!

Aah!

Oh, boy.

Ok. Come on.

Come on. You got

to show yourself.

You kicked me in my heinie.

Where are you?

Look, there's no need for this.

Don't do this.

Nobody ever kicks me

in my heinie.

Ah.

You hear? Nobody!

What?

He did what?

Patty:
He hit me, daddy.

And then he kicked

me in my heinie.

Your heinie?

Oh, honey.

I didn't do it.

I swear I didn't.

It was her.

I was nowhere near her.

I didn't even touch her.

She did it.

Where is she?

She's gone, but she's here.

I mean, I can't find her.

She kicked... she disappeared.

You know, I read in a book

that a healthy angel...

You better give us

some answers, young man,

and I mean the truth!

Nobody has to get hurt here.

You just tell me where she is,

and we'll forget

the whole affair.

What? Just a minute.

I've got some say here.

Look, just settle down!

This is business, right, wimp?

It's just between us men.

George:
That's right, my friend.

Just between us men, no?

Unhand that wimp!

Pisshead!

Jim:
My heroes.

That's my dad. You're

in trouble now, Eddie.

Hiya, pa.

What have you done to my son?

Hey!

Don't start something

that you can't finish.

Kick his butt, Ben!

All:
Kick his butt, Ben! Kick his butt, Ben!

Kick his butt, Ben!

Shut up!

Kick her butt, then!

All:
Kick her butt, then!

Kick her butt, then!

Let him go. I'm not

gonna ask you again.

Just as soon as he

tells me where she is,

you can have the punk.

Now, where is she?! I want her!

Did you have garlic for lunch?

Agh!

Hey, hey! Aah!

Aah!

Aah!

Spread out! Spread out!

Aah! Aah!

Jim.

Jim Bob. Jim?

Boys, we'd better

get him to a hospital.

Don, get his feet.

Come on, buddy.

Wake up. Get up.

I'm sorry, but it's not good.

Your son has a cerebral tumor

in a very advanced stage.

Hasn't he been complaining

of severe headaches?

Hi.

Listen, I'm sorry

that I yelled at you.

I didn't really want you to go.

I'm going to die, huh?

That's why you're here.

You were supposed to

take me that first night...

the night of the party,

only you broke your wing

and messed up your mission, huh?

Does everybody get you

when they go?

Good. I might be jealous.

I'm scared.

I guess that's kind of

natural, isn't it?

I'm sorry we didn't

have more time together.

There's so much I wanted

to share with you.

I love you.

Jim?

We didn't realize that, um...

If we'd have, uh, you know...

We were just trying to make...

George.

Happy.

He's already...

woman:
No, he isn't,

and you know you shouldn't

be in here.

But we have to

tell him something.

You can do that tomorrow.

Now he needs his rest.

Well, we thought

that he might not...

Don't worry. Jim's gonna be

around for quite a while.

I have that

on the highest authority.

Now if you don't mind,

I need to be alone

with my patient.

So how do you feel?

Fine.

Wait a minute.

How?

An answer to an angel's prayer.

Do you like it?

Look at that.

I got a leave of absence

for good behavior.

I guess he thought we could

make some good music together.

Jim, I'm starving.

Do you feel well enough to take

me out for some French fries?

When I'm with you

I come alive

I feel I'm living in heaven

you make the wrong

turn out so right

I'm gonna love you forever

in your arms

you made me warm

you give me strength

to carry on

I know I won't be alone

as long as I'm with you

When there's a dark storm

on your horizon

and you think

you can't get through it

just put your hand

in my hand

and I'll show you

how to do it

when the future

looks uncertain

you can count on me
