Life on the Line Page #3

Synopsis: LIFE ON THE LINE is a riveting action thriller and family drama centered on Beau (John Travolta), his beloved niece Bailey (Kate Bosworth) and the hardworking men who risk their lives to work "on the line" and keep the electric grid running. These unsung heroes brave raging storms and dangerously dizzying heights in their dedication to keeping the populace safe. Toiling hundreds of feet in the air on wires carrying as much as 500,000 volts of electricity, tragedy is often inches away. Haunted by the electrocution death of his brother, Beau is devoted to Bailey and determined to see her go off to college and away from the life of linemen. Bailey has other plans, which include the strapping second-generation lineman Duncan (Devon Sawa), whom Beau despises. A deadly tempest is brewing and headed straight to their Texas town. Beau, Duncan and a legion of linemen are thrust into the eye of the storm and must face down impending disaster to keep their community connected. This compelling act

Damn.

Mr. Ginner, okay?

Let alone Bailey.

She projects. She has no

need for a ball like you.

It's not very nice.

If it goes, it's because of you.

I not let her go out with you.

One returns.

Hi, Beautiful People.

Okay?

I'll see that with Russell.

I'm on it.

Well, precisely.

You wanted to see me?

Russell, we are far

behind our schedule.

Bill, is made as quickly as we can.

Just look at it with Beau.

Listen... Beau is a

little too old school,

Straddling settlement.

I'm not saying it

poorly, but accelerate.

In 2 weeks, transport and

distribution must arrive

The post 12. And for now

Were delayed everywhere.

I know Beau 22 years.

I work with him

because he is good.

For our part, we will be ready.

Do not worry.

Eugene, you come early.

What are you doing?

Fouille not my business.

There are numbers of

messages that I do not know.

This is the friends I made

when you were not there.

Like who?

I went out with Bailey,

opposite the next.

And friends to it.

Where you going?

Make my suitcase.

I'm leaving soon.

You're kidding!

You just got back.

- Can I ask you a question?

- Yes.

Have you spent time with my wife?

Yes, it was seen.

With your friends too?

My Friends?

Eugene, stop bothering Bailey.

I see too your friends

hang out here.

With my friends.

Okay.

Sorry.

It's nothing.

Thank you, baby.

Ladies.

I have a gift.

It's not worth it. Thank you.

Hey, you want to help

me and talk to him?

Go.

Look at least what it is.

I have work.

- It's not true!

- I just want to talk to you.

Let go my arm.

OK.

- I just wanted to talk to you.

- OK.

What does he want?

It's okay ?

Yes. We will clean it.

One morning I see

her nails done.

There were everywhere on the carpet.

Sorry.

Thank you.

- Do you like to be a mother?

- Yes.

- Yes?

- Yes. That's wonderful.

Finally, it is not

easy every day.

Is not sleeping much, especially

when they are babies.

That does not leave much

time for anything else.

You?

I'm going to college.

So I do not have time for that.

- You still wood.

- No.

I'm not too keen.

- You want to talk?

- What?

Who is the father?

It is a lineman.

It is not even aware.

My uncle hates him.

What you gonna do?

I know.

Your turn.

What?

I saw you.

Getting into a taxi in front of you.

Nothing can hide among girls.

I'll order another.

Go.

- Here we go. Beware of steps.

- Oh yes.

Ready? 1, 2... Okay?

- It's okay.

- Then continue.

One arrives...

Well, well, well.

What beauties like you do here

No men with them?

You know how you got

the feeble air?

Go liberates cowboy.

What if I do not want?

Huh?

So you will continue

to look like a fool.

Come on, it's good.

It's good.

Quick, we not catch up.

I can not believe you're

out with that jerk.

He kept pestering me.

Go, Ron. Leave us.

You should not disrespect me

when I make you a compliment.

Let us pass.

Or what?

I'll blow your teeth!

You the keys...

If you touch her, I'll kill you!

No, Ron!

- This is not Bailey?

- If this is it.

No, Ron! Stopped !

- Stop!

- Bailey!

- Leave him.

- Not stay here, you!

Get out.

Duncan, are you?

- Yes.

- My God.

I'm pissed.

It'll take a long time to heal.

I have it?

Yes, with pleasure.

- With pleasure.

- He'll smash your head.

After, you'll be a vegetable.

It's going! Its good !

This is good!

Get out of there.

You again.

- Bailey, you come home.

- It's not his fault.

Go home!

Come on, honey.

Damn. Warning !

Hello?

Hi. Am I bothering you ?

What is it?

You can see?

I have something to tell you.

See you at our place?

- Be careful.

- Always.

There you go.

This is my last lap moto.

- Why?

- I sold.

I filed tomorrow.

- You do like this bike.

- I know.

It's time to move on.

I'm going to buy a pickup.

And this...

This is for you, for college.

Duncan, I can not accept.

- I want you to guard.

- Do you need.

Why?

I'm not good enough for you?

That's what you think? Not me.

Really?

I'm not just a hobby

before college?

Why do not you want me?

It's just the opposite.

That's what you want?

I'm pregnant.

You say nothing?

Bailey Ginner expect my child.

Bailey Ginner expect my child!

What I want is to be with

you, if you feel like it.

- I feel like it.

- Yes ?

You sure?

My dream may be to stay

here and marry a lineman.

They not maintain the network,

and afterwards, we reproach.

You're very silent.

You told me not used to that.

What is it?

What?

I'm pregnant.

Well...

I'll pretend I had not heard.

You just said you were pregnant?

You're joking, I hope.

But by God!

Contraception, you do not know?

I will not have high like that.

Oh no. It's him ?

It's not true! Is Duncan?

That's what I want.

That's what you want, a poor guy

who has nothing to give you?

- It's not a jerk.

- Really ?

It is a lineman.

As you.

As your father.

As my father.

I love you.

I love you more than anything.

But not tell me what I

should do with my life.

That's what I want.

I went to my mother on

the day of the storm.

It must have been a day of celebration.

I was going to say to

me and Bailey and...

I do not know.

Things are not always

go the way we want.

Alert weather for South Texas.

Hi, Mom.

You remember Bailey Ginner?

The niece of Beau Ginner?

It's pretty.

It's pretty.

Mom, she is expecting a baby.

What?

We're having a baby.

I'll be a dad.

You have no job.

If. Like I said, I'm lineman.

Your father died without

leaving anything to me.

I do not even enough to eat.

I not had enough to get dressed...

- I loved him.

- Nothing to put you on the back.

- I'm not my father!

- I do not lift up your child!

Listen to me, Mom.

Listen to me.

Let's get out of here.

And you're coming with us.

We'll buy a nice house, and

you're coming with us.

You're going to be a grandmother.

Grandmother.

Do not worry for me,

because it will go.

Agree?

Hi, Mom.

I love you.

It has winds of 100 km / h south

And they are gaining ground.

Teams remain on the ground.

One must be ready to intervene.

Warn them.

You heard?

On the Job

It'll spoil.

No way I ride.

The storm comes from the Gulf.

It is a few kilometers.

It will hurt.

There's no way I ride.

He fucks what, Eugene?

What is he doing?

I do not know what he doing.

Hi, honey.

Everything okay?

Eugene?

You're still here?

Yes, I'm here.

I wanted to hear your voice.

That's nice.

Eugene, on the news, they

talk of a storm warning.

So take care of yourself.

Yes. I have to go.

Carline?

I love you.

Tell the kids I love them.

I also, I love you.

- What is he doing?

- He climbs ?

It's sick!

What's wrong?

Is not entitled to mount.

It is forbidden.

We have a problem on line 10.

We remain on alert.

It happens.

- It is where?

- It progresses quickly.

Louisiana is private stream.

She comes by the Gulf and will

be there around midnight.

Gentlemen, it will be hot.

But we trained for.

I do not want a misstep tonight.

Not one.

Care is taken on each other.
