Journey from the Fall Page #3

---

- Yeah.

- What's this?

- Paper.

No. What's this? This.

M-o-r-p-h...

Three.

- What's that?

- Three.

That's good.

I'm having a hard time sleeping

and I can't remember that story.

I need some pills.

I need pills in a bottle

that has this written on them.

M-o-r-p-h-i-n-three?

Yes. And it's in the main block.

In that room in the main block.

You understand?

- Ask the head nurse.

- I'm asking you as a friend.

- But it's stealing.

- No, it's not. Not if you need it.

It's no different

than stealing bread from a church.

- I'll ask them for you.

- No.

It's a bandit secret.

I need the pills

to finish the story. Understand?

- I can't get it...

- I'll do it.

Thanks.

You look beautiful.

Why do you put red on your cheeks?

Because it makes you look pretty

and healthy, too.

- Remember, back before lunch.

- I know!

Alexandria, no licking the ice today?

No. Thank you! Bye!

One bite maybe. But a pit of snakes?

M-o-r-p-h-i-n-three. M-o-r-p-h-i-n...

M-o-r-p-h-i-n...

Maybe you got...

I know it's important that you listen to me.

You've gotta think of your other children.

I'm so sorry.

You have to warn your other children

about the sounds of rattlesnakes.

This isn't a good time.

There are snake pits all over this area.

Wake up! Wake up!

You better get up or they'll chop you.

You get up! You better get up

and show these people you are sleeping.

These men will chop you if you don't get up.

Get up!

Get up. This isn't funny.

Please, let's leave this place.

Come on. Come on!

I do that all the time.

All you have to do is change your clothes

and hide the wet ones until they're dry.

You know what I do

when something frightens me?

I say the magic words.

Googly, googly, googly, begone.

Let's practice together.

The magic words.

Googly, googly, googly. Go away.

- Did you get what I sent you for?

- Yes.

- This it is.

- Yeah?

There's only three in here.

- You asked me for three.

- No, I asked you for a full bottle.

- But, you wrote...

- Was this bottle full of pills?

- Were there more pills in here?

- Yeah.

What did you do with them?

I throw them in toilet.

But I throw them away because you wrote

m-o-r-p-h-i-n-three.

Will they help you sleep?

A nap perhaps.

We must free the slaves.

Did they free the slaves?

Come out, Odious.

Just like a butterfly.

Why the mask again?

He doesn't want to scare her.

She doesn't know anything about him,

but he knew everything about her.

The color of her eyes.

Brown.

Her favorite food.

Orange?

Her favorite book.

Bible.

Boys, she's mine.

- What about the bomb?

- What?

The bomb.

The bandits kidnapped the princess,

leaving behind her little nephew.

They rode down

from the high mountain deserts

to a place he loved.

He had played as a child with his twin.

A palace in the middle of a lake.

What's the matter with that poor fellow?

Ever since the Indian's misfortune

he took a vow

to never look at another squaw.

But a man cannot show what's in his heart

when he hides his face.

Who, may I ask, are you?

To most I am known as the Masked Bandit.

The Scourge of the Southeast?

That's the one.

But that's only when I wear the mask.

Who are you?

Nurse Evelyn.

Once I was Lady Evelyn Everest Everhardt,

and now I am simply called...

- Sister Evelyn.

- She is not a sister.

Bless you. No. What? Yes, she is.

She doesn't have brothers and sisters.

No, she's a nun, like these nuns out here.

And she turned from the Masked Bandit,

and she said...

- May I be frank with you?

- Of course.

Although I've dedicated my life

to God and goodness

I secretly love throwing oranges

at our priest.

Take two turns to the left

and go to the bathroom.

No, you read my note.

What are you talking about?

Go to the bathroom.

No.

How do you know

about the priest and the orange?

Everybody knows

you like throwing oranges at the priest.

Even the priest knows, but I didn't

find that out from your gibberish message.

It's not gibberish.

She wants to ask you

how much days I have to stay here.

Well, I want you to stay here

until you get better.

Her cast will come off in a few days

but I'd like her to stay here

until she's completely recovered.

She wants to say

that we are spend here too much times

and we have to leave the city.

No, well, you just tell her

that you shouldn't be working in the groves.

That at your age it's dangerous

and you'll spend

the rest of your days picking fruit.

And then she'll fall. She surely will fall.

Thank you.

- What did she say?

- She says okay.

- Really?

- Really.

Alexandria, she asked me something,

didn't she?

No, that how we speak.

- You sure?

- Sure.

Beautiful machina. Beautiful machina.

Beautiful machina. Beautiful machina.

Beautiful machina. Beautiful machina.

It's a very generous offer.

If you look over here at the number,

it's more money than I actually make a year.

I want to add something to it.

Don't start adding stuff to this.

You know, the studio's got

a building full of lawyers.

Jumping, falling, crashing.

I mean, cowhands are getting all the glory.

Whose idea was it anyway?

Jumping onto a horse from a train bridge?

Add the screening to the contract

and I'll sign it.

What happens to the money if I die?

Roy, you need to get off this suicide thing.

Let the doctors finish what they started.

Problem is not his back.

It's a broken heart.

He needs to get over her.

I mean, he's not the first guy to lose a girl.

I'm sorry.

You are someone famous.

So they tell me.

Hey, kid!

I made this for you.

Who's in the mask?

You in the wheelchair.

It's beautiful.

I'll keep it forever.

I hope I never get better.

- Why?

- Because I want to stay here with you.

- Hey, this came for you today.

- Really?

- You like chocolate?

- I like it.

- Do you want me to finish the story?

- Yes.

- I need a favor.

- What kind of favor?

You know our friend Walt?

- He's not my friend.

- He's not my friend either.

I retrieved this key from him

because I think he's been stealing my pills.

I think he's got them in his cabinet there.

I want you to go check

and see if he's got them.

Why? I got you the bottle.

There weren't enough in there

for me to go to sleep.

Come on. Be a good bandit.

I don't want to be a bandit.

That's too bad.

Because Odious's castle

is surrounded by a big blue city.

And that's where the bandits are headed

for their final encounter.

It's the best part of the story,

and since you're leaving soon

I'd hate for you to spend your whole life

wondering how it turned out.

- What's in the drawer?

- Stuff.

- What kind of stuff?

- Stuff Walt's been stealing from me.

What?

I won't know until you go look.

- Promise you'll finish the story?

- Yeah.

It's that brown bottle.

- This one?

- That's the one.

I think he stole it from me.

That's mine.

Where did we leave off?

They were telling secrets each other.

I'm looking for the man

who murdered my father.

The Black Bandit said.
