Men in Black 3 Page #8

Synopsis: After breaking out of a moon-based maximum security prison, Boris the Animal decides to go back in time and eliminate the person who arrested him - Agent K. When he does so, Agent J realizes that the time line has been changed and he too travels back to July 15, 1969, the day before Agent K is killed. After overcoming some disbelief, J manages to convince young K and others of just who he is and why he's there. With the help of a being who can see all time lines, they track Boris down. J also learns a secret, something old K had never told him.

but they've got weapons, sir.

Some kind I've never seen before.

What breed of fool

do you have to be

to penetrate my site

on the day of the most massive feat

attempted by mankind?

Watched by God, the population

of the planet and my own

...firstborn!

MP:
Colonel?

Colonel, they had these.

They said they needed

to put something on the rocket

for an invasion.

Thanks.

I got 10 minutes

to launch.

If you pose a threat to that rocket,

you tell me now and do not lie to me.

I told the truth last time.

Sir, this man came here from

the future to protect me

so I can attach a shield to the top

of that rocket and save the world.

I need your help to do that.

Take them to the brig.

You're slipping, Griff.

Sir, if I may.

Corporal.

You men are

no longer needed.

I'll take the prisoners.

- Sir, are you...?

- Dismissed.

Follow me.

You did the future thing.

What did you show him?

Only what he needed to see.

I have to go now.

What? No, no, no. Come on.

You don't need me anymore.

All right, Griff,

don't start flipping on me.

When Boris' arm is taken, the past

will be as it was. K will survive.

He will not know

you were ever here.

All right. Arm gone, got it.

Like a reset?

When that happens, go home.

Leave.

You coming?

Yeah, all right!

Uh, thanks, man.

Hey, will I ever see you again?

Anything's possible.

Oh, Griff.

I can never bear to watch this part.

MAN [ON TV]:

Armstrong and Aldrin are scheduled

to set foot on the moon

on early Monday morning,

Eastern Daylight Time.

Where's Griffin?

Doing his own thing.

COLONEL:

Gentlemen.

This elevator

will take you to the top.

To get the Arc Net

outside the atmosphere,

you need to strap it to the escape

rocket above the capsule!

You do not want to be

anywhere near this rocket

when it takes off!

- Questions?

- No. Thank you for this, colonel.

Some job you got there.

Hey, thanks a lot, bro.

What did Griff

show you back there?

How important you are.

You and your partner.

J:
If everything goes right

the way we hope it does,

I'm gonna end up

getting out of here pretty quick,

so I'm not gonna have a chance

to say a proper goodbye.

If things go wrong, not gonna

have a chance to, either.

So I guess win or lose,

this is it.

I see why I recruited you.

You're a good man.

Good man.

Man, what the hell

happened to you?

I told you,

it still hasn't happened yet.

[THUMPING]

[GRUNTS]

J:

I'll take this one!

Naughty.

Get a pedicure if you get a second.

[SNARLS THEN GRUNTS]

[YELLS THEN GRUNTING]

And liftoff.

[GRUNTING]

[SNARLING]

MAN [ON TV]:

Just passed the two-minute mark

in the countdown, and all is still go

as we monitor our status board.

[GRUNTS]

MAN:
Astronauts report it

feels good. Power transfer is complete.

Neil Armstrong just reported back

it's been a smooth countdown.

[GRUNTING]

Hey!

Boris, can you give me a hand?

Hey! Aah!

Hey!

You hear me calling you?

Boris the Animal!

Hey!

Boris the Animal!

It's just Boris!

[GROWLS]

You're gonna lose.

Let's agree to disagree.

[GRUNTING AND PANTING]

[GRUNTING]

Hey!

Boris the Animal!

[GROWLING AND ROARING]

Right.

Left.

[SCREAMS]

[SCREAMING]

You're gonna lose.

Let's agree to disagree.

[GRUNTS]

Hey!

Boris the Animal!

[GROWLING AND ROARING]

Right.

Left. Left.

Right.

That's not possible.

Let's agree to disagree.

That's not possible!

[ROARS]

[BORIS LAUGHING]

K!

I win! I'm better than me!

[GROANS]

That's my partner.

That's my partner!

If we call this in,

...they'll scrub the launch.

- I didn't see anything.

[GRUNTS]

- Where's your partner?

- He went home.

- How does that work?

- You got me.

Come on!

[SCREAMS]

Get down!

[ALL CHEERING]

Wow.

K:

Bingo.

Man, that is

some next-level stuff.

You ever want to see more,

I know a top-secret organization

that could use a man like you.

I wish I could.

Thank you.

I'll see you around, K.

Look out!

Go ahead.

Arrest me.

Not this time.

[YELLS]

"Where there's death,

there will always be death."

BOY:

Daddy! Daddy!

K:

Hey.

Hey, my name's K.

What's your name?

James.

K:

James? That's a nice name.

Where's my dad?

What have you got there?

What is that?

My dad gave it to me.

We timed the launch.

Where is my daddy?

He, uh...

He went to go do something

very special.

And he wanted me

to stay here and take care

of his best pal.

When is he gonna be back?

He, uh...

[CLEARS THROAT]

James...

if you look right here,

I will tell you the only thing

you ever need to know.

Your daddy is a hero.

My daddy is a hero?

K:
Want to take a walk with me?

- Yes.

James?

# Concrete jungle where dreams #

# Are made of

There's nothing #

# You can't do #

# Now you're in New York #

# Oh, yeah #

# These streets will make you # #

K:

# Feel brand-new #

# Inspire you #

# New York #

# New York #

# New York # #

You're late.

Uh, sorry. Lost track of time.

How do you know that song?

Drink your coffee.

We got work to do.

What do you know

and what do you don't?

How do I know what I don't know?

That's a really good question.

Did we go to Wu's last night?

Yeah.

Boglodites?

Extinct for 40 years.

Perfect. Did we talk

on the phone last night?

You hung up on me.

Yeah, I did.

But that was because

of all those secrets

the universe

doesn't know about.

[SIGHS]

But...

I've realized that

last night was a long,

long time ago.

And, really,

I just want to say thank you.

It's been my privilege.

[CHUCKLES]

You know, there's a really

high possibility now

that I might know some things

you don't know.

- I doubt it.

- Heh.

I bet I know what went down

with you and O.

K:
She's a fine lady,

but you know the rules.

There's no fraternizing

amongst agents.

J:
I think y'all might have

fraternized a time or two.

This is my new favorite moment

in human history.

Unless this is the one

where K forgot to leave a tip.

Almost forgot.

That was a close one.

# You'll have to excuse me, baby #

# Go

Yeah, you, baby #

Ooh, you're groovy, baby #

Let's make a movie, baby #

# Understand, understood

I'm a go-getter, mover, shaker #

# Culture, bury a boarder

# Won't you

Give credit where credit is due #

# Don't you

Know that I don't give a number two #

# Y'all just halfway thoughts

Not worth the back of my mind #

# But to understand the future

We have to go back in time #

# Oh, baby #

# Oh, baby #
