Kazaam Page #5

You're not talking about genies.

You're talking about djinn.

Djinn?

What's a djinn?

A djinn is free.

A djinn can do anything.

Love, the future, fate.

The problem is, djinn only

exist in fairy tales...

and I don't believe

in fairy tales.

Yeah, well, I don't believe

in fairy tales either.

- But then again, I don't believe in wishes.

- And look what you got.

- Doesn't your school

have a bell?

Yeah. All right.

I guess I better be going.

- See ya.

- See ya.

- Yo, the business man.

- Yo, what's up, man?

How's it going?

Having fun, Max?

Some cajones, huh?

So, you gotta talk

to your dad.

Tell him if he wants the tape

back, it's gonna cost him.

This is your big chance, man.

Do this, everything changes.

You got money, everybody

looks at you differently.

You don't do this--

You don't want to say no.

Are you all right?

Yeah.

Get up!

Nick, please.

Nick, Nick.

You knew the tape

was worth a million dollars.

What was he thinking?

He was gonna work it off?

I know how much it was worth.

I'll find it.

But what will I find?

My loyal friend...

or a man at the bottom

of the lake?

I'll get it to you

by midnight tonight.

But I still find it curious.

On surveillance tapes...

it looks like we were robbed

by a bunch of little boys.

How could that be?

I don't know.

Neither do I.

Kazaam! Kazaam!

Revere is ready,

but he doesn't have a horse.

Kazaam!

So he wishes for the fastest

damn mare in creation.

And what do you know;

a country is born.

Where did you learn

all this, Harvard?

Harvard? I'm way

too intelligent for Harvard.

I experienced my academia

in Upper Mesopotamia.

But nothing is more major

than my studies in Asia.

Kazaam!

So how'd you get to work

for a guy like Malik?

- You don't want to know.

- Yes, I do. Try me.

With a talent like yours, you'll

get to know him as well as I do.

But will I get

to know you?

I'll be right back.

Kazaam!

Kazaam!

- What the--

- Get off the table.

- Kazaam, I gotta make a wish!

- What are you doing? Get off the table.

- Kazaam, I need a wish, okay?

- Right now?

No, in 250 years, stupid! I need a

tape. No, no, I wish I had the tape.

- What kind of tape?

- The master tape of last night's show.

Can't your father

give it to you?

No! Do you have

a problem with this wish?

- No, it's just that it's your second wish.

- So?

- So you want to waste it on a tape?

- I just do, okay?

Just get me the tape!

I mean, come on, you

know the drill. ''I am

Kazaam -- '' Let's go!

That we can do.

Huh?

No!

Why are we here?

- Just saving you a wish, my man.

- I-It's not here.

How do you know?

I just know, okay?

Why isn't the tape

here, Max?

Why are you stalling? All you ever

wanted was to make my three wishes!

'Cause you're blowing a

whole wish! Something's wrong.

I got a nose

for this kind of stuff.

Talk to me, Max.

I'm your friend.

I don't need a friend, I need a genie!

Now, grant my second wish! I order you!

Your wish is my command.

- I'm outta here.

- Let me assist you.

Four of the republics

of the former Soviet Union--

Whoa!

Uh, Unocal?

Unistan?

Pakistan?

Stan the man?

Detention!

Tell me you

had a wonderful breakfast.

Tell me that you couldn't have

another bite. Tell me everything.

L.S.U. Grad...

professional performer

since he was eight.

Like I said, he's about as

interesting as his pituitary gland.

Come on, Asia.

Give Kazaam another shot,

won't you?

I know there is something

about that boom box...

and I am just dying

to find out.

- Yo,Jake.

- Two hours in detention. That sucks.

Mrs. Duke sucks.

We gotta talk.

See you later, man.

Come on, in the car.

Wait. Max. Max.

Wait. Max. Max, honey,

get out of the car.

Nick, what the hell do

you think you're doing?

This is between me and my boy.

Your boy? You haven't seen him in

over a decade. You have no rights here.

- This has nothing to do with you.

- You want me to call the cops?

- Max, he's not what you think

he is. Get out of the car.- Let go.

- Max.

- Go back to Travis!

Max, no! Max, no!

No, stop!

Fifteen years.

Fifteen years!

Never in my life have I ever

seen something so stupid!

- But Dad, I-I-- - I know what you

stole, you and your punk friends!

Dad, please...

I told you--

Jesus.

Why'd you have to come now?

Mom was gonna marry Travis.

I thought

I'd never see you again.

You must have really

thought I was something.

I never knew what to think.

You were gone.

Listen to me.

You don't want to be like me.

You don't want

to live my life.

You got a choice. I don't.

You understand?

A guy like me,

you can't just walk away...

and pretend all this

didn't happen.

Do you know how many cops

would love to lock me up?

All right, look.

I want to tell you something.

You get no second chances

in life.

You get no second chances.

Remember that.

Go on, get outta here.

Go on, go!

- Wow, look at that!

That's some boom box.

It has nothing to do

with the box.

Well, if you're looking

for this, I found it.

- Start production.

- You got it.

I want the first run packed

and shipped by sunrise.

Nick... stick around.

I want to talk to you

about your son.

#Man of the ages #

#Straight out

of the pages #

#Hang on

I'm contagious #

# Outrageous, spontaneous

You can't contain this #

# I am Kazaam #

# I am Kazaam

I am Kazaam ##

How about it, party people! Put

your hands together for Klass K!

Whoo! Yes! There's about a thousand

people out there, and they loved me!

You look terrific!

just great!

Yes.

Whoo!

- Kazaam! Kazaam! I got it, I got it!

- What is it?

Kazaam! I need

to make my last wish!

- Say what?- My third wish! I wish

my dad had a second chance.

- Is the kid bothering you?

- Leave me alone. Leave me alone.

- What is it?

Don't you want him back?

- Let me hear you

make some noise!

I wish my dad

had a second chance.

- You know, like a different life.

- No can do, kid.

- Kazaam, you gotta help me!

- We've been over this before.

- New lives, destiny. Kazaam

can't do ethereal-- - Kazaam!

I need this more than anything

I've ever needed in my entire life!

- I mean, can't you even try?

- Believe me, I've been trying all my life.

- Just try harder!

- Look, I can't do it!

Kazaam, I gotta make this wish!

When you gonna learn? Life

ain't about wishin' and dreams.

It's about what you got

and what you can do with it!

Please! This is all my fault!

I'm not some djinn. I just can't

snap my fingers and make you happy.

You just don't want to grant

my third wish, do you?

You've got all this, and now you

don't want to go back in your box!

- I thought

you were my friend!

Friend? Don't you remember?

I'm just your genie!

You--

You're nothing!

- Max! What is it?

- Nothing!

- What's the matter?

- Just leave me alone!

Max!

Excuse me.

What's wrong with Max?

- He'll be all right.

- He was really upset.

I know, but listen to this

crowd. They love me. I own them.

- You don't own them!

- Say what?
