Come on, Bob!

Get up! Bob, get up!

At last,

the fly.

Guns are for...

You killed my mother.

Her name was Fay.

Fay?

Well, God forgives me.

Goodbye, fly.

Go in peace now.

What was the last name?

What?

Trench club.

This is Captain Fairbanks of the HPD.

Put down your weapons.

Guns are for cowards.

I know. I know they are.

Don't do drugs.

I'm not going to. I promise.

I promise I'm not going to.

And get a job.

I will.

I'll get a real job.

And you're not going to die, you know.

You're just...

You're going to be fine.

Typewriter.

Yeah, and be Lois Lane. I know.

I'm going to try really, really hard.

I love you, Kat.

I love you, too.

Moon...

What? What are you saying?

I'll see you on the moon.

Okay. I'll see you on the moon.

F***... No...

First caller, you're on the air.

Finally, someone comes along

and says winning is possible.

Right. And we don't have to be afraid.

Right. Exactly.

And what, this guy had an IQ

of like 80 or something, right?

We're having a special service

for Defendor at our church...

...take on those bikers and...

It's classic.

It's Defendor vs. Goliath...

One word, thank you.

he didn't have a bullet-proof vest.

If he had a vest,

he totally wouldn't have died.

It's always nice to hear

from our younger listeners.

Next caller. Go ahead.

What does it say about us when

we're relying on individuals who

really should be admitted?

I'm not taking anything away

from what Defendor did,

but I wouldn't be surprised...

Did he have any next of kin?

Line 5. What's on your mind?

I'm sort of at a loss for words,

but I think he's a real hero.

(Help, I'm Alive)

I tremble

They're gonna eat me alive

If I stumble

Can you hear my heart

beating like a hammer?

Beating like a hammer

Help, I'm alive

My heart keeps beating

like a hammer

Hard to be soft

Tough to be tender

Come take my pulse

The pace is

on a runaway train

Help, I'm alive

My heart keeps beating

like a hammer

Beating like a hammer

Beating like a hammer

Beating like a hammer

If you're still alive

My regrets are few

If my life is mine

What shouldn't I do?

I get wherever I'm going

I get whatever I need

While my blood's

still flowing

And my heart still beats

Beating like a hammer

Beating like a hammer

Help, I'm alive

My heart keeps beating

like a hammer

Hard to be soft

Tough to be tender

Come take my pulse

The pace is on

a runaway train

Help, I'm alive

My heart keeps beating

like a hammer

Beating like a hammer

Beating like a hammer

Beating like a hammer

If you're still alive

My regrets are few

If my life is mine

What shouldn't I do?

I get wherever I'm going

I get whatever I need

While my blood's

still flowing

And my heart still beats

Beating like a hammer

Beating like a hammer

Beating like a hammer

Beating like a hammer

I tremble

They're gonna eat me alive

If I stumble

They're gonna eat me alive

Can you hear my heart

beating like a hammer?

Beating like a hammer

Beating like a hammer

Beating like a hammer

Help, I'm alive

Help, I'm alive
