The Mighty Ducks Page #7

of kids out to win.

A team is something

you belong to,

something you feel,

something you have to earn.

And l'm not gonna

let those kids down.

Gordon, l'm going

to make this simple.

Are you prepared to lose your job

over some kids ? Some game ?

Let me ask you, sir.

Are you prepared to fire me

over some kids ? Some game ?

Collect your personal

belongings, Gordon.

Yes, sir, Mr Ducksworth !

Thank you very much,

Mr Ducksworth !

Quack, quack, quack, quack,

quack, Mr Ducksworth !

- Quack, quack, quack, quack, quack.

- Gordon, stop quacking.

[ Quacking ]

You may have paid for this jersey, sir,

but you didn't earn it.

l'll see you in the play-offs.

[ Bell rings ]

- Excuse me. There are some students

here that l'd like to see.

- Who are you ?

l'm their hockey coach.

lf you could tell me where

l can find each of them, please.

They're in room 223.

- All of them ?

- All of them.

''l will not quack

at the principal.''

''l will not quack

at the principal.''

- What do you want ?

- l want to talk to you guys.

- People.

- People, right.

Sit down, please.

All of you.

Okay, don't sit down.

Look, what's done is done.

l want to be your coach again.

You're gonna coach

a bunch of losers ?

- No, l want to coach the Ducks.

- What about the things you said ?

You said we didn't

deserve to live.

Karp, l was being sarcastic.

Do you know what that means ?

- No.

- Okay, then you do.

l didn't mean those things

the way they sounded.

You guys know what it's like

to be misunderstood, right ?

- Yeah, of course. We're kids.

- So...

Can you forgive me ?

Can l be your coach again ?

- What about Banks ?

- He can be on the team if he wants.

He should have been

with us all year.

lt's you guys who were cheated.

Let's forget all that crap !

- We're a team, right ?

- [ Ducks ] Yeah.

l made you guys,

and l'm sticking with you.

So, what's it gonna be ?

We can play tomorrow night and still

have a shot at the play-offs...

or we can forfeit again

and the season's over.

Peter, what do you say ?

Well...

l guess it would help

if we practised first.

All right. Let me see if l can

get you out of detention.

- Yes.

- Take that.

You really quacked

at the principal ?

Yeah.

Are we Ducks, or what ?

Yeah !

Look at your mother.

Let's see how it is

in ten minutes.

l'm gonna kill you !

Hey. Wasn't sure

if you'd show up.

Yeah, whatever.

- l just want to play hockey.

- Good.

Ducks, you all know Adam Banks.

On behalf of the Ducks,

l'd like to say welcome.

Cake-eater.

Ooh, the Jess-man, dissin' the new guy !

The Jess-ster !

Shut up, Averman !

[ Averman ]

lt's just a joke.

Puttin' on a Ducks jersey

doesn't mean you're a real Duck.

- They're a good group

once you get to know 'em.

- l bet.

Well, suit up.

l'll see you on the ice.

On your left !

Over here !

l'm open !

Come on, right here !

Up front !

- Up front !

- Pass it to Banks !

Come on !

Do somethin' with it !

Yeah ! All right !

Way to go, Banks !

All right !

Score another one for the Ducks !

[ Ducks talking excitedly ]

Goldberg, you're gonna

sit this one out.

What ? You're pulling

the goalie when we're tied ?

Listen, listen, listen !

A tie isn't gonna help us.

We need the win.

Okay, Fulton,

you're our extra man.

Everybody, get the puck to Fulton.

That's your job.

-We pulling the Statue of Liberty play ?

-Yeah ?

No, take your shot. You may only

get one, so it's gotta be good.

- But, coach, one outta one ?

- [ Germaine ] Soft hands, Fulton.

- Concentration, not strength.

- [ Bombay ] That's right !

Okay ? Let's get the Huskies !

Let's go ! Come on !

Let's back it up, boys.

Let's make it a fair one. Let's go !

- Get in there !

- Come on !

[ Jesse ]

Shoot, shoot, shoot, shoot, shoot !

Shoot, Fulton, shoot !

We won !

We made the play-offs !

[ Charlie ]

Boy, this is great.

[ Connie ]

Guys, look, it's the North Stars.

- Oh, man.

- lt's Mike Modano !

- ...Believe this ?

- Cool !

This is too cool.

l can't believe this.

[ Connie ]

This place is humongous.

What are we doing here ?

lt's a little play-offs present.

Hey, Gordo !

Gordon Bombay, right ?

- You remember me ?

- Sure, from Pee Wees.

- This guy used to rule in Pee Wees.

- l heard you were a farmer.

Actually, l became a lawyer.

But l'm coaching Pee Wee now

and this is my team, the Ducks.

- Ducks, this is Basil McRae

and Mike Modano.

- [ Ducks ] We can see that.

- All right.

- Hey, Ducks !

Listen to this guy.

He knows what he's talking about.

lf you ever want a shot, l'll get you

a tryout in the minor league clubs.

- Thanks.

- No problem. Hey, nice seein' ya.

Take it easy.

[ Bombay ]

All right, let's have some fun !

You've got to accentuate

the positive

Eliminate the negative

Latch on to the affirmative

Don't mess

with Mister ln-between

You've got to spread joy

up to the maximum

Bring gloom

down to that minimum

Have faith or pandemonium

You're liable

to walk upon the sea

To illustrate my last remark

Talking about Jonah in a whale

and Noah in an ark

What did they do

when everything looked so dark

Then they say

You better

accentuate the positive

Eliminate that negative

Latch on to the affirmative

Don't mess

with Mister ln-between

We better

accentuate the positive

Eliminate all the negative

Latch on to the affirmative

Don't mess

with Mister ln-between

No, don't mess

with Mister ln-between

- Hey !

- Hey !

Don't you mess

with Mister ln-between

You know, l heard the North Stars

wore the same underwear...

all through the play-offs

last year for luck.

So l'm doin' the same thing.

Hmm. Maybe l should've cooked.

You know, l'm thinkin' maybe we can all

go down to the winter festival tonight.

- All three of us ?

- Sure.

l don't think l should,

'cause l got a lot of homework.

You should go. With my mom.

By yourselves.

[ Door slams ]

Mmm, smells great !

Hello.

[ Whispering ]

Go for it.

Hi.

[ Casey ]

l don't know how they sculpt these.

Hmm, l wonder.

l used to sculpt,

but now l do mostly paintings.

How do you think

they do the details ?

Oh, little men.

Tiny chisels, big mittens.

Oh.

l'm nervous.

l'm rambling on and on here.

You probably think l'm weird.

No, l think you're great.

When l was a little girl, l used

to pretend that that was an ice castle.

And that was my room,

that window right up there.

And last winter

l gave Charlie that one.

What about me ?

Which window's mine ?

l want to live there too.

What ? What did l say ?

- lt's just not that easy.

- What's not that easy ?

Casey, l was just

playin' around.

Look, l don't know

how you feel about me.

l don't even know

how l feel about you.

But l do know there's

a little kid back home...

who's absolutely falling

in love with his coach...

and if you

can't deal with that,

if you're just playing around,

then you better let me know.

What are we talking ?

'Til death do us part ?

- l have to decide on the first date ?
