Well, sir, it might be

coincidental but I just,

I got a property...

And it seems to have

your name on it,

unless, of course,

there's a different Ed Reese.

I thought you might wanna

take a look at it.

Calling Limo One.

Dispatch. Come in, Limo One.

Yeah, this is Limo One.

We only got one limo.

Well, that's Limo One,

I guess.

What do you want, Chick?

Look, don't forget

to get over to

the aerobics clinic tonight.

That lady asked

for you specifically.

Yeah, all right. I think what

I'll do is, I'm gonna go

to Moms and grab a burger.

Boy, I haven't been there

in years. I've been

craving burgers all day.

Have a nice quiet

meal at Moms.

Please, don't do anything

to my head, sir.

I will pay for it...

I will pay for any

inconvenience or damage

done to this...

Come on.

What happened

to the music?

It's music, come on, music.

Come on.

I don't like purple-headed

faggots jumping up and down!

Hey, why don't you

just leave us alone?

Oh, got pink hair

all over, huh?

What are you supposed to be,

a rooster or something?

Hey, hey, come on,

gentlemen, gentlemen,

please, ladies!

Come on, have we

forgotten our own youth?

You don't remember

the '60s?

How rebellious

our music was?

Come on, have you

forgotten acid rock?

Jimi Hendrix, Woodstock!

As far as the hair goes,

didn't our own long hair

turn a few heads?

Really, you know,

we should appreciate

another generation's

cultural movement.

F*** you, hippie.

"F*** you, hippie. "

"F*** you, hippie. "

You know,

I would accept that,

you know,

from anyone else but you,

you f***ing rooster head.

I expect it from you,

but you owe me an apology.

He's right.

S-O-R...

S-O-R...

R-Y.

S-O-R-R-Y. Sorry.

Period.

Yeah.

The end.

You know what?

We've got a failure

to communicate.

That's what it is.

Now, I could stay here

all day long,

and I could take each one

of you on, one at a time.

But I'm not going to.

I'm going to leave you

with one thought.

This simple message.

I still believe in it.

Because this is right.

I love all of you,

my brothers and sisters.

Peace. I'm leaving. Peace.

Hey, motor bum.

Higher, higher,

lift and reach. Reach.

Reach for beauty,

reach for peace.

Reach for money and success,

and reach.

Reach.

Good, here comes our boy.

Set everything up.

This could prove

to be very interesting.

Reach.

Reach for beauty.

Reach for peace,

reach for money

and success, reach.

Excuse me,

sorry to bother you.

Limousine guy.

Take them more often.

Hi, excuse me, you are...

Hi, how are you.

Limousine's out there.

I'll wait here,

I'll just wait here.

Reach, reach for beauty,

reach for peace,

reach for money and success.

And stretch, stretch.

Stretch, use it all...

Limousine!

Sorry. I got

the limousine

right in front.

I'm a little early.

I'm very sorry.

I'll wait out there for you.

Whenever you're ready,

I'm right out front.

Come in for a second.

Come in?

This is our driver.

Hi, John Bourgignon.

Pleased to meet you.

Bruno, hi.

I'm Clarence.

Clarence, how are you?

Nice to meet you, John.

So, where are we

going this evening?

Where are we

going this evening?

Where?

We're going out.

We'll tell you

on the way there.

Okay.

How about a drink, John?

Not for me, thanks,

I'm driving.

We insist.

Just one drink before

we start our evening.

I really can't.

It's company policy.

Oh, please, John,

you must have one.

I can't break

the company policy.

Come on.

I can't... Break it.

Cheers.

Cheers.

It's bad luck

if you don't all clink.

We'll have ours later.

I see.

Does it come in that bottle?

I'd like to get

the name of that.

I'm having a little

party later on.

How are you feeling?

Me? I'm...

I don't feel very good.

Why don't you

sit down, John?

Thank you. Yeah, I will.

I kind of gulped it a little

fast there. That was the...

I shouldn't do that,

you know. I've done that

since I was a kid.

I have this bad habit.

Just relax, John.

All right.

Look at the girls.

Lovely, long-limbed bodies.

John, someone wants to

take their bodies away.

No, you got to be kidding.

Those bodies?

Oh, not a chance.

He's in our power.

Show me something.

Is this a dream, John?

I don't know.

I am the only one

on this planet.

The only one in the universe.

I am your world, John.

Okay, I'll buy that.

You'd do anything for me,

wouldn't you?

Yes, sure.

Even kill your future

father-in-law.

Okay, why not?

Bark like a dog.

Shut up!

Thank you, John,

that won't be necessary.

Very good dog, though.

Continue.

Tomorrow you'll be going

to your wedding rehearsal.

At a certain point

someone will come up to you

with a playing card.

That card will be

the five of spades.

John, do you see this man?

Yes.

This man wants to

take away the bodies.

When you see this card,

you will kill this man.

Heel! Heel!

Now, see what you did? Idiot!

Walkies. Sit, sit.

Yeah!

SUN Yl:
What's this?

That's not a killer,

that's a schmuck!

Something has gone wrong.

The hypnosis has magnified

his most juvenile traits.

Well, is he gonna

kill Reese or not?

We won't know until

he sees the five

of spades again.

That irresponsible bastard,

I'm gonna kill him.

Please, Mr. Reese,

this is a house of worship.

Oh, for God's sake!

Where is he?

Now what's the real story,

you little weasel?

Mr. Reese,

I'm sure he had a late fare.

I mean, you don't realize

how hard he's been working.

There he is now.

Hi, sweetheart.

Hi.

Where have you been?

I overslept.

Everyone's been waiting.

Now let me get this straight.

Patti shows him

the five of spades.

And he either turns

into a killer or a schmuck?

Yes, Your Holiness.

Why don't we all

assume our positions?

Has anyone seen Patti?

No, I'll go find her.

Oh, thanks, John.

Patti, what are you

doing here? Come on,

what's going on here?

John, would you sit down?

They're waiting out there.

Sit down!

What is it?

I have something

that I have to show you.

Come on, they're...

It's very important

that you see this.

It's a matter

of life and death.

What is it?

Okay, we'll start

off with "Dearly beloved"

and all that,

then we'll move straight

into the personal vows

that Nancy and John

have written for themselves.

Would you care to

read those, folks,

so I'll know what to expect?

"I, Nancy, take thee, John,

in soul and body

"and offer all my love

to thee, as our separate

lives merge into one. "

Lovely.

Wait, I'm not

quite finished yet.

"With this ring,

a circle of our

precious love,

"I thee wed. "

Is that it?

Yes, and then John

pledges his vows.

John?

Let's consummate

the marriage now!

Dive! Dive!

Yeah!

It's hickey time!

He's acting like a schmuck.

He's not gonna kill anybody.

No, he's not.

He'll have to be

reprogrammed.

Well, what's he gonna do?

There's no telling

what he'll do.

A little decorum, please!

Did you say decorum?

Did you say decorum?

That big word coming out

of that little cute mouth.
