Mr. Woodcock Page #8
It's too late.
She's made her mind up, Farley.
What? My mom's the best thing
that's ever happened to you.
One day you'll date girls
and you'll understand.
Once a woman makes her mind up...
there's no changing it.
Oh, I get it. You're scared.
Your last marriage fell apart
because she was cheating on you.
Again and again and again.
The woman's a deviant, Farley.
Who cares?
So you're scared
of getting hurt again?
Hey, spare me
the self-help crap, OK?
You're not a guru.
You're a spoiled little kid...
who can't seem to let go
of his momma's right tit.
Oh, yeah?
Well, you're just
a p*ssy with a whistle!
Really?
You cocky little sh*t.
Do you actually think
you're tougher than me?
Oh. Any time, any place.
Get the rentals, Farley.
Seems like old times, doesn't it?
Yeah, well, a new day has come.
Ooh!
That was called a takedown, Farley.
OK. So that's
how it's gonna be, huh?
Ah!
Yep, now I'm gonna bring it,
Woodcock.
You never shut up, do you?
Why don't you make me?
Time to earn your wings, Farley.
It's called a suplex, Farley.
It's one of my favorites.
Here's another one of my favorites.
The Vietcong shuffle.
The reverse Vietcong shuffle!
Here comes the thunder, Woodcock!
Ooh!
Heads up, Farley.
- Say uncle!
- P*ssy!
- Say it!
- P*ssy!
Ow!
Russian headlock!
The gym teacher body slam!
Are you OK?
Rhetorical question, Woodcock!
You remember me now, don't you?
- B*tch!
- Uh! Uh!
Mr. Woodcock?
Oh, sh*t.
Got a white male, 50s,
possible concussion.
What are those? Bite marks?
Uh...
Come on, Scooter.
Get that mask off of me.
Oh, thank God.
You couldn't kill me with a shotgun
and a head start, Farley.
Said by the man flat on his back
in an ambulance.
Yeah, well, it's about time
you showed some backbone.
Is that a compliment?
Farley, I'm just saying...
that you showed some sack
out there today, OK?
Wow.
hiding in there somewhere.
I mean, seriously,
why can't you be nice to people?
Lt--it's not healthy being
such a dick all the time.
You're gonna end up like your dad...
just angry and bitter and alone.
If that's what you want, then
fine, but I don't think it is.
Now, right now, my mom is
on that float all by herself...
really wishing that you
were up there with her.
The problem is...
I don't think you got
the backbone to win her back.
Oh, really?
Watch out!
Come on, Farley!
Step up the pace!
I could if you weren't
such a fat ass!
Watch out! Excuse me!
- Keppen! You're off tempo!
- Aah!
- Watch out!
- You're flat, Mount-Gardner.
- Excuse us! Hey!
- Oh!
Excuse us!
Come on, Farley!
- Mom! Mom!
- Beverly! Beverly!
Oh, my God, what happened?
Jasper, why are you
on that gurney?
I don't know, honey,
but I'm here to say that...
I'm basically sorry.
Basically sorry?
Mom, for an emotional cripple
like Woodcock...
that's a huge step.
Listen, I'm the one
who should be apologizing, OK?
This is all my fault.
Just give it another shot.
'Cause my lungs
are about to explode.
Please, honey.
- Oh!
- Oh, my God!
Stop! Stop!
Mr. Woodcock!
You OK?
Nice work, Farley.
There's one pothole in this town
and you managed to find it.
Jasper! Oh, my God.
Oh, my God, Jasper.
Jasper.
Are you OK?
I'm sorry, Mom.
I thought I was doing
the right thing.
By killing him?
I called 911, didn't I?
Ha ha ha. Yes.
For what it's worth,
I want you to be with Jasper.
- I don't believe you.
- I do. L--
If it means anything at all...
you have my blessing.
You can see Mr. Woodcock now.
Listen, uh...
I just want to say I'm--I'm sorry...
About the "nailing your mother"
comment there.
That's it?
What do you mean?
I thought you would apologize for--
Mom, Mom.
I know this is gonna be hard for
you to believe, coming from me.
But Jasper is a good person.
You see, somewhere around the
time Jasper was choking me--
- Yeah, with your own foot.
- Right.
I had a revelation.
You don't get past your past.
You embrace it.
And I'm not that fat little loser anymore...
and that's because he pushed me.
And, in a really weird way...
he's a big part of who I am today.
For Christ's sakes, it was just
a P.E. Class, you fruitcake.
- Jasper!
- Well, it was.
See?
Set of ten, Farley.
- What?
- Just joking.
# I see a bad moon rising #
# I see trouble on the way #
# I see earthquakes and lightning #
Merry Christmas, Woodcock.
Merry Christmas, Farley.
I read your book.
Really? What did you think?
Well, that part about, uh,
treating others...
how you want to be treated,
I guess that's all right.
Yeah, I sort of stole that
from the Bible, but...
I'll take credit for it.
The rest of it's pretty much crap.
What the hell, man?
That's my book!
It's my book, Farley.
You gave it to me.
I can do with it as I please.
# I hear the voice
of rage and ruin #
# Don't go around tonight #
# Well, it's bound to
take your life #
Oh, hey. Look, your new book.
- Congrats, John.
- Let me see.
- Congratulations.
- Oh, my gosh. Look at that.
Oh, wow.
Yeah, it's
really, really good, John.
Wow, you read it?
Don't make me lie on Christmas.
Well, as long as we're
congratulating people...
Beverly and I have
a little announcement.
Recently, uh, one of my swimmers
took hold...
Mm!
And, uh, your mother's got
a little Woodcock in her.
What?
You're gonna be
a big brother, Farley.
Just joking.
# It could be ten
but then again #
# I can't remember half an hour
since a quarter to four #
# Throw on your clothes,
the second side of Surfer Rosa #
# And you leave me
with my jaw on the floor #
# Hey! #
# Oh, just when you think
you're in control #
# Just when you think
you've got a hold #
# Just when you got on a roll #
# Oh, here it goes, here it
goes, here it goes again #
# Oh, here it goes again #
# I shoulda known, shoulda
known, shoulda known again #
# Oh, here it goes again #
# Oh, oh, here it goes again #
# It starts out easy, something
simple, something sleazy #
# Something inching
past the edge of reserve #
# Now through the lines
of cheap Venetian blinds #
# Your car is pulling
off of the curb #
# Hey! #
# Oh, just when you think
you're in control #
# Just when you think
you've got a hold #
# Just when you've got on a roll #
# Here it goes, here it goes,
here it goes again #
# Oh, here it goes again #
# I shoulda known, shoulda known,
shoulda known again #
# But here it goes again #
# Oh, here it goes,
oh, here it goes #
# Oh, here it goes again #
# Oh! Oh, here it goes again #
