The Ultimate Legacy Page #5

And Joey, this is Michael.

He's one of the beneficiaries

of the program.

Hey. Great to meet you.

Nice to meet you.

And I'm sure

you recognize this guy.

How's it going, buddy?

Hey, how you doing, mate?

Good to see you.

Courage, honor, duty.

Hey, he played for my platoon,

and he was so inspired

that he wrote a song

for us right then and there.

Yeah, that got me through

some pretty tough times.

So, how are you doing,

my brother?

You know,

just doing the best I can.

Trying to rebuild

my arm strength,

and waiting...

Just waiting to heal like

the rest of these guys.

Well, that's what

this concert's all about.

Raising money.

Getting you guys what you need.

Yeah, I'd just like

to dance with my wife again.

Hey, Michael.

Yeah.

Um, can I see your hands?

I just wanna...

He's a rock climber...

With a head to match.

I'm not trying to mess

with you.

You said you've been working

on your arm strength.

I just want to give you a little

isometric strength test,

- all right?

- All right.

So, just make a claw.

Yeah, like that.

Now, resist what I'm doing

to ya.

That's really good. Push up.

Same with the other hand.

Claw, resist.

Mm-hmm.

- And again.

Yeah, whatever you're doing

for your arms is working.

He's a pretty weird

kid, isn't he?

Hey, uh, do you mind

if I try something with you?

I just wanna...

Yeah, all I got is time.

Now, your arm strength

seems pretty good to me,

but we want to get you

out of this chair, right?

Right.

I'm going

to lock this up,

and we're going to use this.

The goal is to pull your elbows

back into your ribs.

Yeah, but what if

I pull myself out

and fall in the floor?

You'll figure it out.

Just a do a little bit

at a time.

Just reach up.

Lift your butt out of the chair,

and then set it back down.

I got ya.

Yes, look at that.

Whoa! There you go.

That was pretty good, though.

Yeah. Yeah, it feels

good to move again, you know?

Yeah, I bet. Good job.

Thanks, man.

You will dance

with your wife again.

You know, maybe we've

been wrong about this guy.

Yeah,

he's pretty impressive.

I don't think he's

the jerk poppy thinks he is,

but we still gotta

make this thing legal.

Yeah.

How much does

a prosthetic leg cost?

They start at around

ten grand each.

For top of the line?

Well,

the computerized models

are between $50,000

and $70,000 a copy.

No

think of all you've done

we are young

the years will come

and they will go

and when the rest is gone,

then I will know

oh

that when the sun

don't shine on me

help me believe

and when my eyes

don't fully see

help me believe

help me believe

help me believe

what are you guys

doing here?

Dude, you invited us.

Dude, this place is sick.

Why didn't you ever mention it?

Who is the party for?

It's a concert

with maximillian swayne

to benefit wish for our heroes.

Cool! You know him?

Well, yeah.

Can we meet the dude?

I'll see what I can do.

But I got to get back to work,

okay, guys?

Cool, cool.

Hey, we'll catch up later.

I also want to honor

all of you.

Raise your hands.

I want to thank you

for your service

to this great country of ours.

Give 'em a big hand, guys.

We stand on the shoulders

of the brave men and women

who have risked everything

to give us freedom.

What is courage?

What is honor?

Are these words or just ideas

long forgotten?

What is duty?

What is glory?

Are they just written down

in some old story?

When we hear a word

like freedom

do we know what

it really means?

Or do we take it all

for granted

living like

kings and queens?

We are blessed to live

in freedom

blessed to live in peace

blessed with food

and shelter

blessed with life of ease

blessed together freely

blessed to...

Wow.

Yeah.

...so we can have a choice

Kelly:

That guy can sing!

Hey, when do we

get to meet him?

Uh, are you going

to introduce us or...?

Yeah, uh, Kelly...

Miss James...

This is the guys.

Nice to meet you, Kelly.

Hi.

She's my lawyer.

One of 'em.

Sweet!

And he's my client.

One of 'em.

I'd like to get

into some legal trouble

if you'll represent me.

Charming.

I'll see you later...

Mr. Anderson.

Thanks.

Max:

We are blessed

so how'd we do?

We did good.

You did good.

We raised hope and raised a lot

more money than we expected.

Michael will walk again.

Hopefully, we can help

his friends too.

Well, you get to choose

what to do with the money.

Joey:

Kind of hard to believe

where I am right now.

There were times when I wanted

to burn this building

to the ground.

But tonight was good.

It was real good.

I'm not going to let him control

me from the grave anymore.

Joey, you might not

want to hear this,

but you need to forgive

your dad.

Why?

Why?

He chose death over me.

What kind of father does that?

I'm not going to

pretend to understand

what you're going through.

You not forgiving him,

you're choosing to stay hurt.

Look, I'll make you a deal.

You consider forgiving your dad,

and I'll help you with the rest

of these gifts.

You've shown you can handle

the Anderson house legacy,

but you want freedom?

Forgiveness is

the ultimate freedom.

Just think about it.

Come on.

Here's your drink, sir.

Yep.

Study long, study wrong.

Oh, no, no, no, no,

I can't do it.

Nah, I... I can't count

when I'm drinking, man.

You can't count when

you haven't been drinkin'.

Well, I haven't gotten

any of your donations yet.

Oh, all right.

Cough it up, guys.

Carry the two, all right.

There you go, Joe.

Four hundo each.

Wow, I really

appreciate this.

You know that, anytime.

Just a sec.

It's going to a good cause.

Yeah, no problem, man.

Hey, can you hold this

for a second?

Yeah?

I've got it all, yes.

The facts?

Okay, here are the facts.

He is an arrogant,

self-centered idiot,

and so are his friends.

I can't wait for this

whole thing to be over.

Yeah, well,

as far as I'm concerned,

if foster Colby sues us

we will take him down.

Have a good night.

You deserve it, man.

Thanks, man.

Good job.

Have a good night, guys.

Take care.

All right.

All right.

Here's to us.

We're friends indeed,

and if by chance we disagree,

forget you guys, here's to me.

Cheers.

Cheers.

Guys, I think it's

about that time, yeah?

Yeah, probably.

Am I going to see you guys

tomorrow at Anderson house?

Nah, can't do it.

We got to catch the red eye.

But you should hang with us.

Yeah.

I, uh...

This gig's got me tied up

for a little while.

We'll catch you

on the next one.

Yeah. I really appreciate

you guys coming out.

Yeah, no problem, man.

Be good.

...love is nowhere

to be found

Kelly:

Hey, pal. Hey.

Looks like you and your buddies

had a real nice reunion.

Yeah, they must be rich

judging from all that money

they gave you.

Joey:

Hand it over!

Not mine to give.

Flip him over.

It's in his pocket.

Flip him over!

No!

- Aah!

- You're a feisty one!

Good to see you.

Nice to be seen.

Joey:

Good morning, everyone.

Good morning.
