The Outing Page #2

Eve is coming, right?

Well, she certainly wouldn't miss

a chance to be with you, pops.

Bye, dad.

...remote resident of Seabrook

several weeks ago.

Hey, come on!

We're gonna be late!

30m! -

How you doing, baby?

Yep. And they'll be playing

at the Seminole next weekend, too.

Yeah, I'd like to see them.

Are you free then?

Well, no.

I'm not free, Theodore.

What the sh*t?

Whoa! Yeah!

Come on, boy, hit them again!

It's Mike. Oh, my--

Come on now, hit them again.

Hit them again.

Hit them again, sh*t,

I'm gonna run them off the road.

Whoo! I'll fix the b*tch.

She's gonna be sorry

she ever dumped me for the wimp.

I've had it with this guy.

Knock it off!

Yahoo!

It's been six months

since you broke up with this jerk.

Stop the runner now.

Look out, Mike!

Boy, that was smart.

Get out of the car.

I said, get out of the car.

Don't say anything.

Don't talk.

You'll get hurt.

You, stand there.

Don't move.

Al, you're not going to believe this.

What's that?

I finished the chemical dating.

That hunk of metal

dates back 3,500 B.C.

Interpreting the inscriptions

have been a lot of problem, though.

Language is not easy, is it?

You said it.

You hit it.

I'm having to reprogram the computer.

Woman".

Dr. Wallace, Mr. Coutrie's is here.

I'll be right out.

Hmm.

A real find.

I am going to recopy

some of those inscriptions

and give it another try.

I'll leave the lamp here when I go.

Okay, I'll have Bob watch the office

till we lock up.

Good work, old buddy.

The dumb sh*t.

It's not funny really, Alex.

I mean, he's always pulling crap

like that since you two broke up.

Yeah, actually,

it started before we broke up.

I mean, that's one of the reasons

why we did.

- The man is sick.

- Alex, I'm afraid of him.

Do you think you ought to talk

to your dad about that creep.

You know what, he thinks

his dad's money can buy anything.

- He's such a jerk.

- More like a jerk off.

Jerk off, huh?

- Hey!

- Mike!

We'll see who the jerk off is

when I'm done with you!

No! Ow!

- Yeah!

- Mike!

- You like that, huh? Huh?

- Mike! Ah!

Oh, my God, are you okay?

Mike, leave him alone!

I'm gonna cut you.

Ow! Sh*t!

Who do you think you are, huh?

Ah! Oh!

Daley, you're finished at this school,

I guarantee you that.

You ain't kicking me out, n*gger.

I can buy and sell you all day.

Son, do you want to know the meaning

of the word "black power"?

Because if you do, I'll wipe the floor up with your

ugly white ass.

No, no.

No what, punk?

Naw, suh!

I'm gonna get you.

You b*tches, you too, Pinson...

- you're all dead meat.

- Get him outta here!

Let me go, man!

Let me go, man!

Let me go!

Let me go!

You're always surprising me.

- Thanks, dad.

- Mm-hmm.

Man, Ms. Ferrell really got him,

didn't she?

Okay, everybody, it's time for class.

You okay, Ted?

Yes, ma'am.

I'm okay.

Sorry about this, Eve.

But it looks like

you took good care of yourself.

We'll be right there,

Ms. Ferrell, okay?

I love you.

Thank you.

Anyway, what he did

was to invite all the poor,

the beggars, and the majority

of the sick and handicapped people

to this large Christmas dinner

he was hosting.

And when they were all seated,

he had his guard set fire

to the entire chamber.

The result was over 1,000

of those people were killed.

This was his method of reducing poverty.

Terrible, huh?

What was his name?

Vlad the Impaler.

But you've heard of him before--

Count Dracula.

There really was a Dracula?

In a way.

Vlad was the real-life person

that Bram Stoker

based his character of Dracula on.

And that's really the main point

I'm trying to make today.

Every myth has an origin,

a beginning somewhere.

Ms. Ferrell, could there ever

have been like a real magic lamp?

Well, was there?

That's good, Alex.

Not a magic lamp,

but there was an evil spirit

called a jinn,

hence our word "genie."

Only instead of their genie orjinn granting

wonderful wishes,

it brought death and destruction.

Yeah, but where'd

the lamp idea come from?

Early mythology says that the oil lamp

was used to summon this spirit.

But the tales of Scheherazade

refer to the lamp

as being the holder of the jinn.

Ms. Ferrell,

what did this jinn look like?

Arabic and Chinese lore

aren't real specific.

Sometimes,

it's described as a man and an animal,

but they claim it could take on any form.

Yeah, like Ross.

Wait, wait! Stop!

Don't forget the field trip

this afternoon.

Alex's dad has been kind enough

to set it up for us.

The bus leaves at 2:30 so don't be late. Laura?

Don't forget to bring your permission

slip this afternoon, okay?

Alex, are you okay?

Are you okay?

Um, yeah. Yeah.

I know it sounds crazy,

but I wish we were going.

We are.

No, we can't get on the bus--

We're gonna have a lot more fun

than them, believe me.

They're never gonna forget

this field trip.

I think you'll find a lot

of interesting things here.

My assistant Beverly will be taking you

through the first part of the tour,

and she will explain things

as you go along.

So if you'll just step over this way.

You will be where we house

many of our prehistoric relics.

It's here that you'll begin the tour. Beverly?

Here we've got the remains of one of

the better-known prehistoric flesh eaters

which roamed the earth during

the early period of our planet's history.

Known data on the Tyrannosaurus rex

are scarce...

Here?

For heaven sake,

no one's watching us.

I love you.

I miss you.

I've missed you so much.

Let's talk about doing something

that'll give us more time together.

Permanently.

Are you proposing to me?

Well, let's...

call it a request to make

an appointment to--

to make a proposal.

Are you free tonight?

Not anymore.

We better catch up with the kids.

I'm serious, it'd be great

to be in here overnight.

Yeah, you heard your dad.

This place is locked

electronically every night.

Nobody can get in.

Yeah, and we get caught,

and my dad is gonna throw a fit.

But besides,

this place really gets creepy at night.

We won't get caught,

and the guys can protect us.

Oh, please,

Ross will be swift protection?

- Oh come on, y'all, it'll be fine.

- Hey, what are you guys doing?

Trying to get Alex to fix it

so we can stay in here overnight.

It'll be great, huh? Huh?

- Hey, yeah.

- Tell 'em it'll be great.

Ross".

Let's do it.

How do we do it

without getting found out?

We can't.

I mean, this entire place is monitored

by closed-circuit TV.

Look.

I'd like to have done it, you know?

You would?

Yeah.

Oh, come on.

We have to catch up with the group.

Here's some of our language displays.

Phonetic alphabet developed

around 3500.

That's my office, by the way.

Some of the early movable type,

first movable type.

And then over in this area,

we've got a lot of the prototypes

and some of the earliest models

of radiotelegraph...

Come on, Jason, we gotta go.

The grim little specimen in the next room we
