settle down, everybody.

(CROWD CHEERING)

She's so fair and

beautiful, a true Juliet.

I especially love when

she turns a pirouette.

MAN:

In ten, nine, eight, seven...

Are you ready?

Yes, I'm ready.

...four...

Yes, Tom, I am.

Of course, no story is

without its omissions.

No journalist is

completely objective.

Because, Tom,

the truth is...

The truth is...

(DOOR OPENS)

What did you tell them?

I told them.

I told them she died.

I told them

she died a hero.

We need as many as we

can get, wouldn't you say?

(SIGHS)

Hey, what about your award?

Award?

Yeah. Did you give it back?

Well, you see, we can't

all be heroes, you know?

Some of us have to just sit on

the curb and clap while they go by.

Did you just make that up?

Think so.

See you.

Okay.

Good.

(HEROES PLAYING ON RADIO)

# I, I will be king

# And you, you will be queen

# Though nothing will

drive them away

# We can be heroes

just for one day

# We can be heroes

# We can be heroes

# We can be heroes

just for one day

# We can be heroes #

(OTHER DAY PLAYING)

# On a day

like any other day

# Sky so blue it could

take your breath away

# And what could

ever fall apart

# On a day like it is today

# Kind of day you'd climb

to the top of the world

# To see your life unfurl

# Before your very eyes

# But when it falls apart

# Then you realize

# This is all a countdown

# To a higher place

# Countdown into

some outer space

# Maybe it's a day when

the angels will come to sing

# Or maybe it's a day

when the devil comes

# To bring a fate

# You couldn't imagine

in your wildest dreams

# Countdown to a higher place

# Countdown into

some outer space

# Never mind the smoke

and mirrors left behind you

# Don't you go

There's nothing there

# To really bind you

# Just let go

and all your destiny

# Will find you

wherever you are
