Last Man Club Page #6

Synopsis: LAST MAN CLUB follows Captain John "Eagle Eye" Pennell, a WW2 veteran who has learned that his family is going to force him into a retirement home. That same day, he receives a letter from a former B-17 crew mate, reminding him of the pact they made to each other in 1944. That letter will send Eagle on a cross country trip to reunite his remaining crew and make good on the promise they made to each other decades before. Along the way, Eagle meets Romy, a sassy young woman on the run from the mob. After a rocky start, she joins forces with the boys, realizing she needs them as much as they need her. On the run from life, our heroes are determined to finish their quest at all costs. Last Man Club is a moving yet often light-hearted and touching story of true friendship. It is their story of honor and ultimately the bond between brothers-in-arms.

It's not the right thing to do. You

can't just bury people in the desert.

Remember what you said to me earlier

tonight? About not being afraid?

We've come too far

to turn back now.

All right.

We bury him.

All I know is, he was a good

man and a great bombardier.

If anyone can find their way

to heaven, he can.

And with god as your commanding officer,

you finally got your wings back.

See you on the other side,

old friend.

All this over a bottle of wine?

They survived 30 missions and

a major plane crash together.

The wine is just a symbol of

their survival.

It's called the last man club.

I gotta go.

- I'll see you in a couple of days.

- Dad, I'm going with you.

Oh, Taylor, no.

Goodbye.

Come on, let's go find grandpa.

Pete is playing us for fools. His

friends were seen in Texas last night.

They're on their way here, most

likely to get him, and he knows it.

I'm sending him to the state

sanitarium immediately.

He doesn't belong in there

and you know it.

Yeah? Well,

he's leaving this afternoon.

I am so sorry. I did

everything I could.

I know you did.

You can wear your bathrobe.

Nobody cares what

you look like over there.

No.

If I'm going there,

they're gonna know who I was.

Detectives.

Mr. Pernell.

Mind if we tag along?

- Detective, how did you know I...?

- Next time take a direct flight.

This is detective Lee, Galveston pd,

and I think you know agent blessings.

Any questions?

Why don't you come with us?

I would like to go the way

Grady did.

One minute you're here,

the next minute...

We should be so lucky.

Whoo-hoo-hoo-hoo!

I feel like we fought for a country

that no longer belongs to us.

It doesn't.

It belongs to them.

The poor bastards.

Have you given any thought to what

we're going to do after this?

- I'm not going to an old folks' home.

- And I'm not going back to that trailer.

So, what are we going to do?

We stick together.

- Did you see that?

- Turn in!

- Isn't that a sight?

- Huh.

What would you give to fly one

again?

- Everything.

Let's go get Pete.

What's on your mind?

What's gonna happen to grandpa

when we find him?

Well, once we get this mess cleared

up, we'll take him home with us.

Then what?

Well, that will be up

to your grandfather.

You could get a ticket for this.

After all the laws we broke, you're

worried about a parking ticket?

- Right this way.

- Thank you.

Mental ward? Pete has

a mental problem?

Well, our last mission

we took a lot of flack.

We survived the crash, but Pete was

sitting directly over the explosion

and it took off everything

between his legs.

He lost his mind over it.

Are y'all looking

for Pete Williams?

- Yeah.

- Everyone is looking for you.

- Police are on the property.

- We wanna see Pete.

We've come a long way.

Well, he's in the south wing,

room 152.

They're transferring him to

another facility.

- You'll have to hurry.

- Thanks.

- - Hey,

who the heck are you guys?

Will?

Eagle! I can't believe it.

Pete, you look great.

I don't feel great.

They're taking me out of here.

They're gonna lock me away.

Not if anybody can do anything

about it.

- Really?

- We came to get you.

- We did?

- There's been a change in plan.

- I didn't know we had a plan.

- Who's she?

- Romy.

- What kind of name is that?

- Where you taking him? Nurse!

- Settle down. Settle down.

- Nurse!

- Settle down.

- Nurse!

- Hold him, will.

Help me! What are you doing?

Let go of me!

You guys going out

for some fresh air?

Yeah.

Come back in a few minutes.

Thank you, Ripley.

Cops! Is there

another way out?

- Back that way.

- Ok.

Where do you think you're going?

That man's in my custody.

- Take your hand off that wheelchair.

- Get your hands off me!

- I knew that'd come in handy.

- - Let's go.

Hey! Come on, here!

Lee, what is going on here?

Agent Hanks, what's your 20?

- That should do it.

- All right.

Hey!

Perfect.

- I'll drive.

- What?

Get in.

- I think I'd better...

- Get in!

- Keep them in the hall.

- Yes, sir.

Damn, I always

wanted to do that!

Whoa. Whoo.

- Their car is gone.

- What?

Lee, we're not chasing

Bonnie and Clyde here.

These guys are senior

citizens, for god's sake.

What are we doing?

We're stealing a plane?

This is one ride

you can't go on.

Romy.

I want you to have this.

- I can't.

- Please?

You're a lot braver

than I ever was.

I want you to have

my wife's car.

I put the title in the glove

compartment and signed it over to you.

You love that car.

What's going on?

We have one last mission,

remember?

Stay with me.

I'll take care of you.

You can't be burdened

taking care of an old man.

Sometimes in life

god hands us a rose, remember?

Yeah, but I want you to have

the whole garden.

Ever hear from her again?

No.

Oh, I don't blame her.

She wanted children and...

I couldn't give 'em to her.

Oh, I'm sorry, Pete.

No, I'm sorry, will.

I'm sorry I never thanked you

for saving my life.

Oh...

Just like the old days, Pete.

Read 'em to me.

Gear switch, neutral.

Neutral.

- Generators.

- Four down and guarded.

- Brakes.

- Set.

- Mags.

- Master on.

And I'm firing up number three.

They were just spotted

at the flight museum.

Welcome aboard, skipper.

Just like old times.

All right, let's find us

a runway.

Very touching. Where's the money?

Don't worry, I'm not gonna kill you.

I just... I just

want my money.

Ok. Ok.

You said you weren't

gonna kill me.

I lied.

Put the gun down now.

Nice and easy.

- Hanks, what are you doing?

- FBI. You scumbag.

- You ok?

- Yeah.

Am I under arrest?

You prepared to testify against Joe

Scanlin, his father and the operations?

It would give me great pleasure.

- Is it all here?

- All 100,000 of it.

Wait a second. She's lying.

There's a lot more...

Shut up.

I'll be right back.

Agent blessings, we're inside the hangar.

I got Scanlin and the girl.

We are entering the building.

Stay here.

Taylor!

Grandpa!

Taylor!

Taylor, stop!

Hey, there's a kid

on the runway.

That's my grandson!

You boys ready

to pull this cork?

It's about time.

- To the corps.

- - To the corps.

Let's take this baby up.

- Do you want me to set a course?

- Hell we're setting a course.

Just head toward the sun.

Get in. There's not much time.

They're flying that plane

on nothing but fumes.

If this is a suicide attempt,

maybe you can talk 'em out of it.

Ok, boys, we're gonna have to turn

it around. We're out of fuel.

I say we go down with the ship.

No. No, no, we got

too much to live for now.

I will not dishonor this ship or our

fallen brothers by crashing this plane.

Oh, that's just great.

We might as well

finish the bottle.

I have the pilot's son

and grandson here.

My dad's up there.

Can I speak to him?

Hey, dad. Dad, come in.

- We've lost number three.

- Copy that. Lost number three.

Please come down.

I'm not ready to say goodbye.

I'm not either, son.

- We've got trouble.

- I see it.
