Stop that!

Stop what?

I'm not doing anything.

Ow!

Serves you right.

Will you cut that out?

I can't help myself.

You're as sneaky

as your father was.

He was the tomato thief of all time.

- I know what you're doing.

- I'm hungry.

Let me finish dinner

before you eat it. Chop these.

Sorry, fellas.

Oh, Mom, tomorrow night we're going

with Tiffany to buy a Christmas tree.

OK, but a small one.

Watch your fingers.

No way, a big one. Ow! Sh*t!

- Are you OK?

- Yeah, it adds flavour.

- Hello?

- We don't want any.

Thea who?

I know it's Thea Brody.

How many grandkids do I have?

- 'I can call by myself.'

- I know. You're a big girl.

- 'I'm five now, Grandma.'

- I know you're five.

Hi, kiddo.

How're you doin' down there?

'I'm fine, Uncle Sean.

I'm taking swimming lessons.'

- 'She swims like a fish.'

- Michael!

- Hey, bro.

- The fish. Check it.

- No way! You check it.

- I'm on the phone.

- 'What's going on? '

- Your grandmother is a slave driver!

- Did you get the book?

- 'Yeah. Thanks! '

Ask the big doctor about his job.

Tough life, you Bahamian beach bum.

'I heard that.'

- He heard that.

- Good.

Hey, how come you get to leave early?

Cos my desk is closer to the door.

- A big one.

- No, your brother won't be here.

- Merry Christmas!

- Merry Christmas, Jim.

- Eggnog time Thursday night!

- We'll be there.

We are getting a big tree

for all the old ornaments...

- With stockings on the mantle...

- And cookies and beer for Santa.

All right! Tiffany, do you realise

what a madman you're marrying?

Yes, I do.

- I gotta check in.

- OK.

- See you. Love you.

- Bye. Me, too.

- Don't be late!

- Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.

That bad, huh?

We're out of decaf,

petty cash and requisition forms.

Anything to do before I go?

That man keeps calling

about his training film.

He won't believe

we don't have a SWAT team.

Good night, Polly!

Amity Police Department.

Hold it!

There's an old dock piling

in the channel.

Maybe it'll just keep on

drifting till it goes away?

- It's stuck on a channel marker.

- Good night, Polly.

Uh-huh. It... Hold it!

It has to be cleared

before the fishermen come back.

Where's Lenny?

Out to Ben Master's place.

Cow tipping.

Cow tipping?

Says kids tip over his sleeping cows.

They're not givin' milk.

OK, I'll take care of it.

Deputy Brody will

take care of it personally.

Call home, tell 'em I'll be late.

- Uh-huh.

- Cow tipping!

# The first Noel

# The angels did say

# Was to certain poor shepherds

# In fields as they lay... #

- No, no, no, no! Hold it!

Hold it! Together, people!

Together, remember?

All right. Let's try it again.

Two, three.

Where the hell are the Wise Men?

Good luck, Harry.

I'm gonna need it with this bunch.

Sounds better than

when I was a shepherd.

Joseph,

where the hell is your robe?

You're supposed to be

in costume! Jesus!

I'm over here!

All right, clear quickly.

Ready, angels, and...

Very good, people. Very good.

And now, again, "Noel," everyone.

Oh, God!

Oh, God! Help!

Help me!

Oh, God! Help me!

His things.

I thought you'd want them.

Grandma! Grandma!

We're here!

Grandma?

- Mom?

- We're here.

Thea, get down here. Come on.

Anybody home?

Michael.

Where's Mom?

She's been out there for hours.

How's she doing?

We've just come from Tiffany's house.

Poor girl.

The doctors had to sedate her.

- Hello, Mrs Taft.

- Hi, sweetheart.

I didn't recognise you, Thea.

You're so grown up.

Uncle Sean is dead, you know.

- Will he ever come back?

- We'll talk about that more later.

Are you hungry?

I had a hamburger

on the plane.

We can do better than that.

How about a funny bone sandwich?

How was the aeroplane ride?

Good. I got two lollipops.

- It came for him.

- What?

It waited all this time,

and it came for him.

You guys must be starving.

I'll make some fettuccini.

I'm making dinner.

You should sit and relax.

Really, Ellen,

there's nothing left to do.

I want you to get out of the water.

What?

I want you to give up

that terrible job!

- You can't be serious.

- Damn right.

I'm just getting started.

- I don't want you near the water.

- Mom, you're upset.

I don't want my family

anywhere near the water again.

- Never!

- You can't believe that voodoo.

Sharks don't pick people to murder.

It picked out Sean.

It killed your father.

- Dad died from a heart attack.

- He died from fear.

Mom, Mom, Mom, Mom, listen to me.

There's never been a great white

where we live, ever.

It's warm water. They don't like it.

Your brother's dead.

Your father's dead.

It was a piece of wood!

It was a shitty piece of wood!

Michael!

He was just doing his job.

God, he could make me laugh

sometimes.

He was always taggin' after me

when we were kids.

He always wanted to do

what I was...

Hey, where are you going?

Nowhere!

"To everything

there is a season,

"and a time to every purpose

under heaven.

"A time to be born

and a time to die.

"A time to plant,

"and a time to pluck up

that which is planted.

"A time to kill and a time to heal.

'"A time to break down

and a time to build up.

'"A time to weep

and a time to laugh.'

"A time to mourn and a time to dance.

"A time to cast away stones

"and a time

to gather stones together.

"A time to embrace

"and a time

to refrain from embracing."

Hey, Tom, wait up!

Oh, you're gonna spoil her.

That's what grandmas are for.

Why don't you come down

to the islands with us?

- I... I can't do that.

- Come on, Mom.

- Get warm, spend time with Thea...

- Yes!

Come here, you.

Wanna know what I think?

I think it's a wonderful idea.

- Yes.

- Come on, at least consider it.

- Get away. You shouldn't be alone.

- Yes!

- Great!

- Yay!

- We can catch the 4.30 ferry.

- Today?

- Today.

- No, I can't.

Yes, you can.

- Swing me, swing me!

- OK, OK.

Oh, my back! I can't do this.

I'll take her.

Oh, my God, she's too heavy.

Help us, Daddy.

OK, here we go. Aeroplane ride.

I know.

I'm gonna throw you overboard.

Oh, look!

Oh, hey,

I always wanted to ride one of those.

No way.

Chicken.

Mom always said if God meant us

to ride parachutes for fun,

- we'd be born with tickets.

- I never said that.

Yes, you did. August 1977.

Where's the lady who brings the soda?

They had them on the big plane.

There's some coffee in the Thermos.

I'm too young for coffee.

Can I drive?

Thea!

Sometimes Dad puts me in his lap

and lets me steer the Jeep.

Sometimes I let interesting people

sit in my lap and steer the plane.

- Oh, really?

- Really.

- Hoagie?

- Yeah?

Jake says you'll have to fly the rest

of your life

to pay off what you lost at craps.

Good news travels fast.

I'll get it back next time.

How come it bumps up and down

when there's no road?

The wind does that.

You been to the Bahamas before?

- No.

- First time's the best.

Then you know too much

and nothing's the same.

What makes the plane go up and down?

Easy. You go like this,

and the houses get bigger.
