Miracle Mile Page #6

Where did you hear

we'd started a war?

Those people at the helicopter

said Landa told them...

and you told Landa?

Oh, God! What have I done?

You told everybody, Harry?

They only heard from you?

You took the phone call?

Fifty minutes and counting.

It's been over an hour now.

They must've called it off

somehow.

Well, that's great news.

This is your last warning,

cop killer!

Do you know what they're

talking about, Harry? Do you?

You and that kid

didn't shoot somebody, did you?

They were blinded.

They just pulled their own

trigger and blew themselves up.

Well, we've got

to tell them something.

We have to tell them something

before they start shooting.

Uh, I'll go out there,

and I'll tell them...

that we just...

we walked in on this.

We were just bystanders.

We didn't...

we didn't know

what was happening in here, OK?

OK, Harry? It's going to be OK.

And, hell, I'll write an article

about all this for Esquire.

Somebody will probably

make a TV movie out of it.

I'm just a bystander!

Don't shoot!

Coming out!

Abort all activities

and return to precinct.

It's just me!

I'm just walking out slowly.

I'm just walking right out!

Hey, where you going?

What the hell's going on?

Where are the police going?

You said it would've happened

already by now if it was, right?

This isn't rush hour.

People aren't going to work.

Yeah, but I can still be

Chicken Little.

Wait for me!

Come on, we got to go.

Slow down!

714-254...

Hello, look, I'm sorry about

calling you this early.

I just want to know...

do you have a son named Chip?

Yeah. So?

Did something happen?

No, no. He's fine.

I just want to know

if you know where he is.

North Dakota. Why?

In a missile silo?

Hey, look, pal.

That's classified.

Call back tomorrow.

Hey, hey, wait a second!

Hey, hey!

He wanted to say he was

sorry about... sh*t!

Come on.

We've got to find a pilot.

- I already found one.

- What?

I hope he's still up there.

I'm scared.

So scared.

Sh*t.

Julie, listen to me.

Listen to me.

I need you to go

back up to the heliport.

Right now, OK?

I'll be right there.

I don't want to go anywhere

without you.

Hey, get the f*** out of here!

Now listen, I just saw

the helicopter pilot...

over there, OK? I got to go

catch him, all right?

Go back up there. Take this.

No, no, no.

There's no bullets.

Just point it at anybody

if there's any trouble, OK?

It's just not safe anymore.

- I love you.

- What?

I love you. I love you.

I love you, too, OK?

Just go and hurry, OK?

Don't look back, all right?

Go on! Go on!

Leave me alone! Leave me alone!

Hold it!

Hey, come on. Let's go.

I'm sorry. I...

Have they said anything?

Have they confirmed it?

...spreading like wildflowers...

wildfire.

Unconfirmed rumors

of possible nuclear attack...

have spread throughout...

I think we're going

to a live feed now...

from... from Brian Jones.

Brian Jones down on the street.

Brian, can you hear me?

It's absolute madness!

We're not people anymore.

It's like...

It's total chaos!

The fear... it's total!

It's absolute!

My God! It's a B-1!

- 52!

- Out of my way!

Son of a b*tch!

Sh*t!

Goddamn!

That goddamn son of a b*tch!

I'll shoot your damn ass, boy!

I'm going to shoot

your damn ass!

Get back! Get back here!

Son of a b*tch! God damn it!

God damn it! Get back here!

Oh, God.

All those chances, I mean...

Hey, don't think about it.

Oh, God.

It's hell out there now,

isn't it?

Just blot it out.

If you weren't in here

with me...

that would be hell.

People are going

to help each other, won't they?

I mean, rebuilding things.

The survivors, I mean.

I think it's the insects' turn.

All your life, you think you

have time to do everything...

and then it just...

Is that it?

I'm sorry. I'm sorry.

I'm so scared.

We won't feel a thing.

And we'll be together,

won't we?

And when it comes...

wherever we are, I mean...

even if our atoms are...

I mean our spirits

will be together.

- Yes.

- Right?

There's no more words...

except I love you.

God!

I wish I had some window pane.

And I ate the drugstore.

Oh, Nellie,

them perks are a perkin'.

And all that other stuff.

It all mixes in your tummy.

Mama always said...

I wasn't sure

I'd get off in time, but...

Man, that better not have just

been the f***ing earthquake.

If I went and fried my brain

over an earthquake...

Sh*t!

Landa!

You slut! Why didn't I listen?

I could be out f***ing penguins

with Jacques Cousteau.

Baron Lafitte-Rothschild '28.

Not any corkscrew in sight.

Tastes like sh*t!

Holy cock-sucking

mother of Christ!

There's the first

son of a b*tch right now!

See what I see?

Look at that baby go!

It's going all the way

to Tia-f***ing-juana!

Run!

Let's go!

I said I'd be here.

Can we make it?

We'll make it.

The E.M.P.

Blew out the controls.

There's nowhere to go.

No! I don't want this!

I can't do this!

You don't want to go out there.

I don't want to die like this.

I don't want this!

There's nothing up there.

I don't want this.

I don't want it.

They'll find us here someday.

They'll put us in the museum.

Maybe we'll get a direct hit.

It will metamorphosize us.

Superman,

he can take a lump of coal...

and he'd squeeze it,

and it would make a diamond.

Diamonds...

you and me, Harry.

You and me.

Diamonds.
