I Heart Huckabees Page #7

---

- [ Woman ] it's just for fun.

- [ Game Beeping ]

- For entertainment.

No games at the table, please.

Yes. 260. And I've reached

the omega level.

[ Tommy ]

Destroyer. Destroyer. Destroyer.

God gave us oil.! He gave it to us.!

How can God's gift be bad?

He gave you a brain too

and you messed that up pretty good--

I want you sons of b*tches

out of my house now.

If Hitler were alive, he'd tell you

not to think about oil.

You're the Hitler! We took a Sudanese

refugee into our home!

You did. But how did

Sudan happen, ma'am?

Could it possibly be related

to dictatorships...

that we support

for some stupid reason?

- You shut up! You get out.

- You shut up. Come on. Let's get out of here.

- Later, Steve.

- God bless you.

- Wow.

- What's going on in there?

- Crazy.

- I can't believe them.

- Hi, guys.

- Oh, Christ.

[ Albert ] You guys get anything good

in there? You didn't, did you?

You hesitated over the mention of a cat.

What does that mean?

- It means nothing.Just like my coincidence.

- Cat seemed to hit a nerve.

Yeah, I had a cat once.

You caught me. You're amazing.

The method worked. I saw it.

It seemed to calm you down, right?

What method?

Come on with that method.

That's a tranquilizer

so people don't get pissed...

about the painful,

ugly truth--you know it.

No, Tommy. It penetrates a unified

infinity of everything.

We're not in infinity.

We're in the suburbs.

Infinity is everywhere.

That's what makes it infinity.

Okay, how does this connect?

Mr. Nimieri's an orphan from Sudan...

who was chased by

soldiers and crocodiles.

- How does the love glow fit into that, man?

- It's connected.

Albert and Mr. Nimieri

share a great deal. It's just that--

- Oh! Oh, my God.

- [ Vivian ] What's she doing here?

[ Tommy ]

That's Caterine.

- This is worse than I thought.

- Oh, it's much worse.

The meeting's going down

at Huckabees right now. Let's go.

- [ Clamoring ]

- Hey, everybody. Calm down.

The national office

recognizes the charter.

We're here today to give

the director a chance to even the keel.

- So just give him a break.

- Thank you, Orrin.

- Okay, first director now. Silence.

- Excuse me.

First, I would like to apologize

for my part of the fight...

that I had with Brad Stand

a little while ago over the poems...

that did not go out

with the Shania mailing.

- Where's Brad?

- Brad. Brad. Brad. It's all Brad, Brad.

The big benefit's

coming up with Brad...

and Brad's running it

and it's going to go great.

So, look, we're overlooking

our core issues.

- [ Woman ] Brad is not here.

- So to get us back on track...

I have a new poem

I'd like to read.

[ Angela ] Point of order, please.

Apoint of order.

I want to discuss this strategy of poems,

which are getting us nowhere.

Excuse me, ma'am. Ma'am.

Poems are amazing, okay?

They will help you

and your mind transform.

[ Angela ]

Who the hell are you?

I'm with Albert.

It will help you...

to transform your mind

into thinking differently.

- You guys need this, okay? This is great.

- Where's Brad?

This is called

''An Open Meadow. ''

''An open meadow,

an open marsh in a cloudless sky.

- [ Girl ] Boring.

- A crane flies.''

- Oh, Brad's here.!

- [ Brad ] Look what i got you, MaryJane.

- Oh, is that for my grandson?

- It most certainly is.

I'm talking here.

Come on. Sh*t.

You know what?

Let me just finish reading my poem...

and then we'll review

our strategy, okay?

- Good job, Albert.

- Can it be taped?

Excuse me, Brad. I would like to finish

reading my poem, please. Thank you.

- Relax. Not doing your poem.

- Don't give me the relax thing, Brad.

Let him read the poem, man.

He was in the middle of it.

That man is not in our coalition. He has

no right to be here and no right to speak.

No, ma'am, I'm not a member,

but I am a local firefighter.

He's a great firefighter

and exactly who we want on our side.

I don't know who these men are.

They're not members of our coalition.

They're working on the benefit.

They're bringing a lot of support for our cause.

- Conflict is an illusion.

- Shut up, Brad.

Hey, Albert, that's not

the way a director behaves.

Why are you guys wasting all

your time fghting each other?

I mean, come on. Serious.

Put the egos aside for a second, guys, please.

Deal with this issues, okay. We have a deadly

petroleum situation, not to mention--

- [ Group Booing, Hissing ]

- Shut up! Shut--

- [ Mouths Words ]

- Cystic Fibrosis. Civil war in Africa.

Toxic fish. You have children

in your own community going to prison.

Father Flavin doesn't have

the money to help them.

Ma'am, listen to me.

This is exactly the unfocused,

idealistic approach...

- by Mr. Markovski that's killing us dead.

- [ Applause ]

Killing us dead.

Our mission has nothing to do...

with this nut's

petroleum fixation.

- What did you just call me?

- Cystic toxic what?

America wants to drive cars, right?

I have a B.M.W. S.U.V.

And I like driving it.

I'm sorry.

Excuse me. You got to give me

a chance, all right?

- This is my meeting. I'm the director.

- We gave you a chance.

- You're out of the charter.

- He can't be out of the charter. He is the charter.

- I wrote it.

- Marty, call security. I think you should call--

- I move to vote.

- Second!

All in favor of Brad becoming

the new leader of the coalition, say aye.

- [ Group ] Aye.!

- Hey, come on.

- That's bullshit.

- Congratulations.

Be strong. Be strong 'cause

you're going to be back.

Don't worry about those people.

They don't appreciate you.

Albert, what happened

in there is reality.

It's cruelty and it's chaos. The detectives

are wrong. What were you trying to do?

You were trying to do a good thing, right?

Well, look what happened.

I'm going to the other side, Albert.

I seriously suggest...

you consider coming with me...

as my other.

- Albert--

- You're wrong!

- You're full of sh*t. You guys

got nothing to offer, man.

- Tommy, no--

- This is the money right now. Yes?

- No.!

You know how hurt you feel?

This is the perfect opportunity to dismantle now.

- Stay away from me!

- Stop! Look! Listen! Throughout infinity...

your energy recycles

into every possible relation...

to everyone else's energy,

even Brad's.

You've been predator

and prey with him.

Friends, enemies, brother,

sister, mother, child.

I give and I give

and I give...

and he takes and he

takes and he takes.

- Mama.

- All right, baby. All right.

- Yahhh!

- It's a romantic fantasy.

And you left that

part out, okay?

When you were taking

my cash. I want it back.

Yeah, and if I wasn't pro bono,

I'd want my money back too.

Send it to

my ex for my kids.

- Hey, sign your bike out. Sign your bike out!

- Tommy, come on!

Go! I'll block for you.

[ Clamoring ]

Cocksucker! Motherfucking

b*tch ass motherfucking cocksucker!

You're all a bunch

of big babies!

Maybe I should just quit.

I mean, what's the point of life anyway?
