The Peanuts Movie Page #3

Remember the steps.

One. Two.

Three. Four.

- Charlie Brown?

- All right.

It looks like we may

have a winner here!

It's gonna happen.

I'm about to dance with

the Little Red-Haired Girl.

Whoa!

Whoa !!

Ugh!

Let's get outta here!

Ahh!

- Do I know you?

- Huh?

Wait.

It's not over yet!

Thanks, buddy.

I hate to say it, Snoopy.

It seems like the harder I try,

the further away she gets.

The Flying Ace took to the skies,

he search endless for the girl

who has stolen his heart.

Ha ha!

Hi!

Hey!

Huh?

Cheese!

Oh!

Ha ha!

AAHHHH !

Daydreaming will not make

her materialized, Charlie Brown.

- She's not here.

- Daydreaming? Me?

She'll be back on Monday.

I heard she went back

East to take care

of her grandmother,

who isn't feeling well.

She seems like the kind of person

who would do that sort of thing.

- Aww! Not another book report!

- Aww! Not another book report!

Time to pick our partners.

No boys! No boys!

Please.

- Patty!

- Yes! All right!

Nope.

Uh-uh.

Yes!

Schroeder!

There's no denying it,

it was written in the cards.

(Sigh)

The Little Red-Haired Girl.

My lucky day.

This changes everything.

She will see the new me.

And together,

we'll win the gold star!

After that, anything is possible.

We could be the first kids

to land on the moon.

One small step for kids,

one giant leap for Charlie Brown.

Huh?

You gotta help me, Linus!

I'm not sure I can handle being partners

with the Little Red-Haired Girl.

I need to slow things down.

Maybe I'm not ready

for a serious relationship.

How will I support her?

I can't afford a mortgage.

What if I'm put into escrow?

Charlie Brown, you're being ridiculous.

You're the only person I know

who can turn a simple book report

into a lifelong commitment.

I've never been responsible

for anything before.

This could be the worst thing

that's ever happened to her!

Linus, it just hit me.

I think I know how

to become her hero!

While she's away taking care

of her grandmother,

I could complete the book

report for the two of us.

That's one way to go.

But, if you want my advice...

They're posting the test scores!

Come on!

Look.

Someone got a perfect score, sir.

You would have to be a genius

to get a perfect score.

I didn't know that

was even possible.

- It's him.

- Here he comes.

No one in the world has ever

gotten a hundred before.

2. Marcie Carlin 92

3. Franklin 90

A perfect score?

Me?

This can't be right.

No, Charlie Brown, look.

You really do have

a perfect score.

Huh. I have heard

peanut butter is brain food.

Nice job, Chuck old boy.

I always knew you

had it in you, Charles.

This can't be right!

Out of my way!

Mr. Perfect:
Charlie Brown?

It must be a typo!

I don't believe it.

I won't believe it!

I demand a recount!

Good afternoon, students and staff.

We have a special announcement.

There will be an all-school assembly

on Monday morning

to celebrate our illustrious classmate,

Charlie Brown,

who achieved a perfect score

on the standardized test.

Make way.

Genius coming through.

I have a science project due next week,

can you give me you thoughts?

Hey!

I saw him first.

They say you're a genius.

Can you read my mind?

- Hey, leave him alone.

- Yeah, leave him alone!

Now, Charlie Brown,

as far as the book report goes,

what would you suggest?

Well, you can never go wrong

if you stick with the classics.

A comic book?

[SPARK PLUG]

I thought classics had

to have hard covers?

Boy, do we feel stupid now.

Will you look at this.

What a contemporary piece.

Notice his use of space.

Have you all lost your minds?

Whoa.

You have what is referred

to as irrational fear.

Huh?

Hey, kid.

What do you think you're doing?

Following in the

footsteps of goodness.

- Break away!

- Shoot it, Charlie Brown! Shoot it!

Nice use of angles there, Charles.

- All right! Charlie Brown.

- Whoa!

Hmm.

How is Santa ever gonna

find our house without lights?

Hm.

- Yay!

- Yay!

This is where it all began.

As a youth he passed many hours

just sitting in that chair,

keeping his deep thoughts to himself.

And here we have his early kites,

used in many aerodynamic studies.

- Whoa.

- Wow.

- Ooo.

If we are lucky, we will see

him in his natural habitat.

And this is his actual bed

where he lies and ponders

life's greatest questions.

Hey!

What are you doing?

I'm cashing in on your celebrity.

BOY GENIUS!

PERFECT SCORE!

- Can I have you autograph?

- No.

And for Show and Tell, today,

my big brother!

Oh, I haven't seen you in a while.

My whole life has changed, Linus.

All of a sudden, everyone

wants to be my friend

and yet,

I haven't really change.

Do they like me for who I am?

Or for who they think I am?

There he is!

Charlie Brown, I need

you on my chess team.

He's got no time for meaningless

games, he's coming with me.

- Close up!

- Huh?

- His face.

- And action!

Do you have time to help

me write my book report?

It's due on Monday.

Monday?

The report is due on Monday?

She's back on Monday!

I haven't even started yet!

Does anyone know where Marcie is?

She went skating with Peppermint Patty.

Mr. Brown.

Mr. Brown!

What about my exclusive?

Cut.

There's Huckleberry Finn,

The Catcher in the Rye.

Sir,

I've been sitting

here for hours,

these are the greatest

books of all time.

- Please just pick one.

- Hmm.

Let me sleep on it, Marcie.

There's no time for sleeping, sir.

It's due Monday.

Just my luck to get a partner that

thinks Moby Dick was a hockey player.

Marcie?

Where are you going?

Hey!

Chuck, old boy.

What brings you down here?

I'm looking for Marcie.

I need some advise.

Curve ball not working for you?

Slap shot not strong enough?

No.

I'm good with all that.

I need to talk to Marcie about

finding the greatest book of all time.

I just might be able to

help you there, Chuck.

Marcie just read off a

long list of great novels.

"Huckleberry Something,

Catcher with a Pie."

But she said the

greatest book of all time

is called "Leo's Toy Store"

by some old guy

called "Warren Peace".

- "Leo's Toy Store"

- Yup! That's the one, Chuck!

Thanks for the tip.

Love that hustle, Chuck!

[ LIBRARY ]

Does anyone know where

I can find "Leo's Toy Store"?

- Shhh.

- Shhh.

- Shhh.

- Shhh.

Shhh.

Leo's Toy Store.

Nope.

No.

No.

- Huh?

- No.

Hm.

Where is it?

He's going into

the grown up section.

Is that legal?

Ahhh!

Charles?

I've never seen you

in here before.

Oh, Marcie.

Thank goodness I found you.

Can you help me find

a copy of "Leo's Toy Store"?

Did you say "Leo's Toy Store"?

Yeah. Peppermint Patty told me

you said it was the greatest...

Stop right there, Charles.

Come with me.

This, is what you're looking for.

LEO TOLSTOY's WAR and PEACE.

Ohhh.

Yikes.

How long was this war?

Are you sure, that, is the

book you want to read?

Might I remind you, Charles.

you only have the weekend

to complete your report.

I have to, if I'm gonna

win that gold star.
