Starz on the Set: The Pursuit of Happyness Page #8

---

Far away from anything.

Everything.

Just Christopher and me.

-Did you see me?

-Yeah.

Far away from buses and noise...

...and a constant disappointment

in my ten-gallon head...

...and myself.

-Chris, thank you very much.

-Well, thank you, Dean.

-Take care.

-You made all the right moves.

Thanks, Chris.

Because when I was young...

...and I'd get an A on a history test

or whatever...

...I'd get this good feeling about

all the things that I could be.

And then I never became

any of them.

-Hey, Chris.

-Hey.

-How you doing, Jay?

-I'm doing fine.

Rumor has it you signed 31 accounts

for us from Pacific Bell.

Yeah, yeah.

Met some guys at a ball game,

got some cards. I've been working.

I guess.

So one more day.

Getting nervous?

-No, I'm okay.

-Yeah?

Listen, whatever happens...

...you've done a fantastic job, Chris.

I mean that.

Take care of yourself.

Yes, Mr. Johnson.

Chris Gardner, Dean Witter.

Yes, sir. Just calling

to thank you very much...

...for your support

at last month's seminar.

Yes, sir. Absolutely.

Yes, sir.

No, sir, that's it.

Thank you very much. Bye-bye.

Chris. Come.

-Hi, Chris.

-Mr. Frohm, good to see you.

-Nice shirt.

-Thank you, sir.

-Chris.

-Hey, Jay.

-Chris.

-Chris, sit down, please.

I thought I'd wear a shirt today.

You know,

being the last day and all.

Well, thank you. Thank you.

We appreciate that.

But...

...wear one tomorrow though, okay?

Because tomorrow's

going to be your first day...

...if you'd like to work here

as a broker.

Would you like that, Chris?

Yes, sir.

Good. We couldn't be happier.

So welcome.

-Was it as easy as it looked?

-No, sir. No, sir, it wasn't.

-Good luck, Chris.

-Thank you. Thank you.

Oh, Chris.

I almost forgot.

Thank you.

This part of my life...

...this little part...

...is called "Happiness. "

Christopher. Christopher.

Come here.

So how many...

...planets are there?

-Seven.

-Seven?

Nine.

Who's the king of the jungle?

-Gorilla.

-The gorilla?

The gorilla?

No. Lion.

Oh, yeah. Lion, lion, lion.

Hey, Dad, listen to this.

Knock, knock.

-Who's there?

-Shelby.

Shelby who?

Shelby coming around the mountain

When she comes

-Knock knock.

-Who's there?

-Nobody.

-Nobody who?

Nobody who?

Now, that's funny. I like that one.
