Pumpkin Page #6

If it hadn't been for you

sanctimonious hypocrites...

he would have been my date tonight.

Pumpkin and I are going inside to dance.

No!

Why, Julie?

You two are not an appropriate... couple.

I'm sorry, Julie.

Pumpkin's not going to sit

in the back of the bus anymore.

Oh, God, no!

Hello.

Look what you've done to me, Carolyn.

They say I'll never play

tournament tennis again.

I'm sorry.

I'm so sorry.

I may not even walk...

because of you.

You will. You will. I know you will.

Now I'm just like him.

I'm to blame.

I'm to blame for evrything.

[ GREEK COUNCIL ]

I've caused dveryone a great deal of grief.

You were all right.

What I did with Pumpkin was against nature.

And now evryone's suffering because of it.

I ruined rush.

I ruined our charity.

I ruined the Formal.

Kent is probably injured beyond repair.

And now, A-O-Pi is runner-up again.

I'm sorry.

I'm leaving the sorority.

I'm quitting SCSU.

I'm transferring to a Community College.

But, Carolyn, you're a senior.

You can't transfer to a Community College,

you have too many units.

Then I'm transferring to Long Beach Tech.

Long Beach Tech?

Oh, my God!

Carolyn, we're having lamb-chops...

medium rare, your favorite.

Would you like to join us for your last dinner?

No, thank you, Julie.

I have to get my life straight.

I have to leave the lamb-chops...

the sisters, Kent...

and Pumpkin, whose trust I betrayed.

Good bye, everyone.

# If you go away.

# On this summer's day.

# Then you might as well.

# Take the sun away.

# All the birds that flew.

# In the summer sky.

# When our love was new.

# And our hearts high.

# And the day was young.

# And the night were long.

Carolyne, where you goin'?

I'm leaving school.

I'm transferring to Long Beach Tech.

Life isn't handed to people there.

Carolyn, you've become my best student.

Not hardly.

I couldn't even finish my poem.

# If you go away

# As I know you will

# You must tell the world

# To stop turning

# Til you return again

# If you ever do

# For what good is love

# Without loving you

# Can I tell you now

# As you turn to go

# I'll be dying slowly

# Till the next hello

# If you go away

# If you go away

# If you go away

# If you go away

# As I know you must

# There is nothing left

# In this world to trust

# Just an empty room

Very sorry, Pumpkin.

Carolyn's gone away...

from all of us.

From you too, Pumpkin.

# And I'd be the shadow.

# Of your shadow.

# If you might have kept me.

# By your side.

# If you go away.

# If you go away.

# If you go away.

# If you go away.

# If you go away.

You have a room for rent?

On a sadder note...

SCSU will enter the

National College Tennis Championships...

without their star Kent Woodlands...

who was tragically injured

in an automobile accident.

Investigation is pending...

as to the cause of this

untimely catastrophe.

We can only hope and wish for the best.

Kent, you have a visitor.

No, I don't wanna see anyone.

# If you go away

# On this summer's day

# Then you might as well

# Take the sun away

# And the birds that sing...

Ladies and gentlemen...

please help me welcome our

challenged athletes!

Remember to work as a team.

Don't be afraid to be hard nosed.

We're gonna beat Orange County!

Beat Orange County!

By the power vested in me, once again...

as President of

The State of California Challenged Games:

Let the games begin!

My son, Hansie.

What are you working on, Carolyn?

Nothing.

A poem.

You know, Carolyn, you're such a mystery.

You don't tell us where you come from...

you just pop in out of the blue.

I'm from a very, very bad place, Sascha.

I tried to change it and change myself, but...

That's what I'm working on.

A poem about giving in to the world.

Come on, Carolyn, let's hear it.

"I once had a dream that I could

change pumpkins into coaches

"But the world said no

"And sent me packing to the sea

"Now pumpkins remain pumpkins

"Mice remain mice

"And I am only me"

I can't seem to get it right.

Maybe the problem is, Carolyn...

you don't wanna give in to the world.

Ready for the relay, Pumpkin?

No.

I want Carolyn.

Listen to me.

No matter where Carolyn is, Pumpkin...

you're still her champion.

And you owe it to yourself...

to finish what you two started.

Take your marks...

set...

# You make me satisfied

# You only want to ride

# But that's alright by me

# We happen to be free

# For what tomorrow brings

GO, GO!

# No peace and broken wings

# It may have been so good

# But now it's understood

# 'Twas just a night

# If I could tear my heart

# And keep it miles apart

# From love of beast or man

# And never give a damn

# If I could learn to lie

# And never show my pride

# I'd be just like the rest

# Be someone I detest

# I'm always looking for the sun

# I'm always looking for the sun to shine

Did you see me?

Did you see me run?

He's a true champion...

like Carl Lewis...

in all ways.

I'm so proud of you, Pumpkin.

You have a wonderful son.

I've always admired you, Kent...

but I had no idea you could be

such a caring, good person.

I'll never forget what you've done.

I know a better man when I see one.

He's all yours, Carolyn.

# Love

# Destroys the best of us

# Then leaves the rest of us

# Thinking perhaps we'll die

# Yet still we stay alive

# Lost in a hollow frame

# With lonely tears remain

# Not knowing our life's worth

# Dragging around the earth

(How false the light)

Should I call you Jesse from now on?

That is your real name.

No. Pumpkin will work just fine.

Pumpkin, when you asked me about the moon...

did you mean it literally or metaphorically?

What?

# Love

# Destroys the best of us

# Then leaves the rest of us

# Thinking perhaps we'll die

# Yet still we stay alive

# Lost in a hollow frame

# With lonely tears remain

# Not knowing our life's worth

# Dragging around the earth

# How false the light

# You make me satisfied

# You only want to ride

# But that's alright by me

# We happen to be free

# And if we fall from grace

# At least we had a taste

# Of something more than this

# Unresolved black abyss

# I'm always looking for the sun

# I'm always looking for the sun

# I'm always looking for the sun

# I'm always looking for the sun to shine

# When you're feeling down

# Think about the breeze

# Floating through the trees

# When you're feeling really

# Really, really, really, down

# Think about the bees

# Flying through the breeze

# Floating through the trees...
