To Lift Me Up

And I Need Time

To Tell Me What To Do

And It's Been

A Long Ride

And I Can't

Make It Through

Oh Oh Oh

All I Want

And All I Need

Is To Be Strong

Can Anybody

Take My Hand

And Let Me Know The Way

To Face Another Day?

Won't Somebody

Take My Hand

And Lift Me

Off The Ground?

You're Terrible.

What Do You Say

We Forget About

All This Exercise Baloney

And Go Get Ourselves

Some Hot Fudge Sundaes?

Yeah! Yeah!

Last One To The Car

Is A Rotten Egg.

[Laughs]

Rotten Egg!

The Question, Dear,

Isn't What's Wrong

With Your Brother.

It's What's Wrong With You?

There's No Cure For

The Mentally Handicapped.

You Simply Need To Develop

A Strong Sense Of Faith.

Hey, Tru.

Choppy L.A. Here.

My Son Sounds A Lot

Like Your Brother.

Our School Board

Was Really Cool

About Helping.

Maybe Yours

Could Be, Too.

Good Luck, Huh?

Deedee:
Dear Tru,

All I Know Is This:

If Your Brother Has A Sister

As Caring As You,

He's Already

10 Times Better Off

Than Most Kids

With His Handicap.

Listen,

As Long As You

Continue To Support Him

And Love Him,

Everything Else

Will Be Fine.

Any Time

You Want To Talk,

I'm Here.

Thanks, Deedee.

[Bell Rings]

Do You Think Billy Meyer

Would Be In My Film?

Yeah, Maybe, If You Promised

To Let Him Be The Star.

Really, That Guy

Is So Into Himself.

Fine. Whatever.

I'm Just Trying

To Come Up With

A Good Idea Here.

I Mean, All I'm Saying

Is This Contest

Could Be The Beginning

Of The Rest Of My Life.

P.A.:
Ladies And Gentlemen,

Please Remain

Behind The Yellow Line

Until...

Anyway,

Mr. Taylor Told Me

To Make It About Something

I Know Really Well,

But Everything I Know

Is Incredibly Boring.

Hey, Make It

About Us.

We're Incredibly

Fascinating.

You're So Lame, Jake.

Get Off Me.

Ok, What If I Did,

Like, Some Hilarious Movie Parody?

That's What

Everybody Will Do.

Well, I Can't Do

Animation, 'Cause That Would Be Way Too Hard.

And I Don't

Want To Do, Like, Some Hip Music Show,

'Cause The Judges

Are Probably All Old Like My Parents.

Hold On. I Might

Have Just Hit

On The Most

Brilliant Idea Ever.

Well, Tell Us.

Why, So You Can

Just Dump On It?

No. Make Sure

Eddie Gets Home.

I Have To Go

Do Research.

Tru.

Where's Tru Going?

I Guess

When Inspiration Hits,

You Gotta Go With It.

Good-Bye.

Tru:
Oh, Jeez. A Little

Help Out Here, Please?

Oh, What Is This?

Here You Go.

I Got This.

Thanks.

What Are You Doing

Home So Early?

Well, 2 Consultations

Canceled,

Surgery Postponed,

Here I Am.

Great, 'Cause I Really

Need Your Help.

Well, It Looks Like Quite

A Project. Science?

No. The Contest.

I Told You,

Remember?

Host Your Own

Tv Show?

Wtuv.

Ringing

Any Bells Here?

I'm Sorry, Hon.

Ok. I'm Gonna Do One

Of Those Magazine Shows

To Teach People

About Kids Like Eddie--

How They Get That Way

And What Doctors

Are Doing

To Try To Help Them.

Stuff Like That.

Which Is Why

I Really Need Your Help.

Can You Get Me One

Of Your Doctor Friends To Interview?

Somebody Really Smart

Who Would Look Good On Tv

And Has Excellent

Credentials.

Ew. Dad. No.

I'm Trying To

Be Professional, Not Pathetic.

Oh. Thanks A Lot.

It's Just--

Would Katie Couric

Use Her Dad?

I Don't Know.

Is Her Dad A Neurosurgeon?

Eddie:
Dad! Dad, Look!

I'm Doing It!

Oh! Whoa!

Daddy, I'm Doing It!

Come Outside With Me, Dad.

You're Not Supposed

To Rollerblade In The House.

Daddy, Come Outside!

[Pager Beeps]

Hold On Just

One Second, Pal.

[Doorbell Rings]

I'm Going

Real Fast, Dad. See?

Dad! Whoa!

[Gasps]

Look, I'm Doing It, Dad!

Hi.

Grocery Guy Delivery.

Eddie:
Daddy,

Come Outside!

Where Do You

Want 'Em?

Just Put Them

Right Over There.

Tru, Look, I'm Doing It!

I've Learned.

Eddie,

Be Careful! Aah!

Oh! Oh!

Pick That Stuff Up,

Will You, Please?

I Didn't Spill It!

Did I Ask You

Who Spilled It? Pick It Up.

Whoa! Dad!

Wait. My Dad Still

Needs To Tip You.

I'm--I'm Sorry, Stacia.

Who's In 5 North?

Ow! Eddie, You Skated

Right Over My Fingers!

Hi!

Whoa!

Eddie, You Hurt Me!

What Were You Thinking?

He Ran Over

My Fingers, Dad!

Dad, Come Out!

I--I Gotta Go.

Uh, Just--Just Hold On.

Here, I'll--

Eddie:
Look, I'm Going

Real Fast! Come And See!

Sorry About

All The Craziness.

Come Outside Now?

Mommy! Hi, Mom! Look.

All Yours.

I Have To Go

To The Hospital.

Dad!

We'll Talk Later.

Tru!

What's Up, Doc?

Get It, Tru?

Aah!

Hi, Darling.

Hi.

[Tru Grunts]

[Garbage Disposal Grinding]

Ginny:
Trudy

Elizabeth Walker...

What In The World

Is The Matter With You?

[Disposal Stops]

Why Can't It Ever Just Be

Normal Around Here, Mom?

That Was Billy Meyer

Delivering The Groceries.

Billy Meyer!

I Don't Care Who It Was.

That Doesn't Give You

The Right To Destroy Perfectly Good Food.

I'm Sorry, Ok?

Aah!

Eddie:
Come On!

Come On, Dad!

I'm Coming! I'm Coming

To Get You! Here I Come!

I Won!

Did You Tell Tru

It's Dinner?

Yeah. She Said She'd

Be Down In A Minute.

Did She Tell You What

Happened After You Left?

Yeah. I Got The Gist.

Mmm...Carrots.

Yum.

Carrots. Yum.

Oh, Gin, Oh,

These Are Delicious.

Oh, You've Outdone

Yourself This Time.

Aren't They Good, Mom?

A Little Thin.

A Little Dry.

I'm Going To Have

To Give Them A 5.5.

[Laughs]

[Laughs]

Nothing Higher.

Maybe Billy Meyer

Might Give It

A Higher Score, But--

Oh, Tru!

Oh, Billy Meyer.

Tru:
"Dear Deedee:

"You Said I Could

Get Back To You

"Whenever I Felt Like It,

So Here I Am.

"I Got Home

From School Today

"Buried In Homework,

"Stressed About

Getting My Tape Done By The Deadline...

"Mom Too Busy

To Hear About Any Of It.

"And There's Eddie...

"Totally Content...

"Which Made Me Think...

"I Spend So Much Time

Watching Out For Him

"And Worrying About Him,

But Who's To Say?

"Maybe He's Luckier

Than Any Of Us.

"He Knows He'll Always

Be Taken Care Of.

"He Goes Along

At His Own Speed.

"I'm Not Saying

His Handicap's A Good Thing,

"But Let's Face It.

Most Of The Time,

He's Happier Than Anybody I Know."

Oh, Yeah, Yeah

Oh, Yeah, Yeah

Oh, Yeah, Yeah

Oh, Yeah, Yeah...

Go On, Eddie.

Just Do It.

The Waking Sun

Like No Alarm

Has Charmed Awake

The Sleeping Mass

With No Regard

For Brooms Or Brass

The Cradle

Rocks The Equinox

Keys Are Owned

But Not The Locks

Do What?

Oceans Boiled,

The Sea It Cooked

Armageddon

Came And Went

A Little Late

But Heaven Sent

What Do You Think?

Is Mine Alone

So Let Me Be

Oh Yeah, Yeah

[Tru Screams]

There's No One Left,

It's Only Me

Aah! Aah!

[Class Laughs]

Hey, Are You Ok?

Oh...

Are You Guys Ready

For This?

The Only Condition

Is That You Have To Be Totally Honest.

I Want To Know

Every Single Thing You Think.

Don't Worry.

Brutal Honesty Is Our Specialty.

Hey, Eddie.

Hi.

Tru:
Welcome

To A Fantastic Journey

Inside The Brain

Of Eddie Walker...

Whoo!

Tru:
The Brain

Is The Most Complex

And Mysterious Organ

In The Human Body.

It Controls All

The Bodily Functions That Keep Us Alive.
