Will Page #4

---

Where's your father?

Something happened.

What happened?

My wallet got nicked at Notre Dame

with all my money and phone numbers.

Disgusting.

Stealing from a child.

- What's wrong with people?

- A lot.

Where did you say you were from?

The south of England.

And your family lives there?

No.

My dad's from Liverpool.

And my mum died a few years ago.

I'm so sorry.

So. why are you in Paris?

I'm on my way to Istanbul.

- The Champions League Final?

- Yeah.

Liverpool versus A.C. Milan.

I'm sorry to break it to you. Will.

But Liverpool have no chance.

You must be mad!

What do you think?

I think he's right.

Milan's a powerhouse.

They've got Pirlo. Nesta.

Kak. Shevchenko...

Yeah. but we've got Gerrard.

Carragher. Hyypi. Alonso...

Fair enough.

Why didn't you tell me

you were a football fan?

Mathieu...

show him your treasure.

Ah! One minute.

I get it from my place.

I know you didn't really want

to give me a ride today,

but thanks. I appreciate it.

Voil!

I have it.

Do you know who this is?

Zidane. Scored twice for France in

the World Cup Final against Brazil.

July 12. 1998.

In the 27th minute.

On a corner kick.

Zizou out jumps the Brazilians

and heads the ball into the net!

Zizou 1. Brazil O.

And then. a few minutes later.

He does the same again.

Another corner kick.

Zizou 2. Brazil O.

He's a genius.

You know Will.

Today is a good day.

Today is Alek's birthday.

Happy birthday. my friend.

Yeah. mate. Happy birthday.

Thank you.

Do you know what Zidane's

first name means?

What. Zinedine?

It means "Beauty of the faith".

Sleep OK?

- Do you like orange juice?

- Mm-hmm.

Do you want to go?

Where did you get these?

My dad.

Where is he?

Where is your father?

Listen! Look at me.

Tell me where he is.

Tell me the truth.

I ask you the last time

where is your father?

He died.

I ran away from school because

they weren't going to let me go.

Hey.

It's OK.

It's going to be fine.

Wait here. I'll be right back.

You know what true beauty is?

Being an original. not a duplicate.

Not a knock-off.

We want the original.

We pay more for the original.

How much are they worth?

Ten thousand euros. at least.

Maybe fifteen or twenty.

- Only for the rich.

- Not true.

What are you doing?

- Give me back my tickets!

- Hey!

I thought you were my friend.

But you're a liar just like everybody else!

- It's not what you think.

- No wonder you're not a footballer!

You're not good enough

to wear the shirt!

Sorry. can I borrow these?

I'll bring them back.

Will!

Will. Wait!

You bloody crook!

Will!

I want to show you something.

Will!

Wait!

Will!

Will. can you hear me?

Come this way.

It's OK. I've got you. come.

I don't need you

or anybody else.

I'll go to Istanbul alone.

I'm afraid you won't

get very far.

What's that supposed to mean?

Here's the broker's ticket

from the quarter final.

Liverpool versus Juventus.

See the hologram?

Your tickets don't have it.

Your father was ripped off.

They're fake. Will.

They're fake.

Sister Carmel. a man in Paris

named Alek Zukic is on the phone.

He says he has Will.

He's a bit shaken up.

But he's fine.

May I speak with him?

Will?

Are you all right?

Yeah.

'You scared us very much...'

'We all miss you.'

We'll see you very soon.

What's this?

It's about 9.000 euros.

For the tickets.

Mathieu. he's a runaway.

I just told his school I was returning him.

I'll go to jail.

It's a crime not to help.

Mathieu. I can't.

If money can't be used to help a

young child's dream come true.

Then what good is it?

There's another selfish motive.

It will be good for you.

You need this as much

as the boy does.

Everything's fake.

The tickets are fake.

My dad's a fake.

He said he was going to take

me away and then he died.

This school's a bloody fake.

Sister Carmel.

The whole bloody mess of them.

They say they'll take

care of you forever.

But when you get too old they just

kick you out onto the street.

The whole bloody world's a

pack of fakes and lies!

Hey. come on.

If I had a real ticket.

I'd still give it to you.

But I don't have a real ticket.

Because I'm a fake too.

Anyway.

Happy birthday.

Why'd you put me in

a football strip?

Because you're at the Atatrk

Stadium in Istanbul.

But why?

It just felt right.

Bonjour.

Monsieur.

Stop! Come back!

What are you doing?

What do you think?

Istanbul?

Yeah.

But how are we going to get in?

We'll figure it out.

Don't you trust me?

I don't know if I do.

But you're all I've got.

We're going to Turkey!

You should have seen it.

Alek was brilliant.

Turkey? Oh, that's more like it!

Formidable!

Mathieu.

Thank you.

Wait. wait...

Did you go to the school?

Did they see the truck?

Whoa!

That's the most awesome

car I've ever seen.

And she's Liverpool red.

This is my pride and joy.

A time traveller from 1966.

Mathieu.

We can find another car.

"Space Age Love Song")

Goodbye.

Careful with the flat tyre!

Send me a postcard.

I saw your eyes.

And you made me cry.

And for a little while.

I was falling in love .

That hasn't been washed

since World War Two.

World War One.

Do you do chicken kebabs.

Our kid?

No. that wasn't Carra.

- It was.

- It wasn't.

- You don't know nothing about Carra.

- I know more than you.

I know. I'm from Bootle.

I don't care if you lived at his house.

It wasn't Carra. I'm telling you.

No. I'm a proper Liverpool fan.

Mate.

Listen. I'm telling you.

Carragher scored in his first

match against Middlesbrough.

- You're wrong. mate. It was at Arsenal.

- Excuse me.

I can see him on the wing.

I was at Highbury. I'm telling ya.

- Excuse me.

- Yeah?

I don't mean to be rude. but...

actually, Carra's debut came at

Middlesbrough on January 8, 1997,

when he was brought on for Rob

Jones in the Coca-Cola Cup.

His first Premiership start was against

Aston Villa on January 18. 1998.

And he scored.

Where did you pop up from?

- Check out Rain Man.

- Liverpool's super brain!

- Come on. join us!

- Come on.

He's amazing.

Where did he get all that from?

We passed you on the motorway.

Love that red car.

- Going to the final?

- Yeah.

- Looking forward to it?

- Yeah.

Come on boys and girls.

Gather round.

May I introduce the

Liverpool superbrain.

Be prepared to be inspired.

Lad. tell 'em about

Jamie Carragher.

- Let's hear it then.

- Jamie Carragher?

Come on!

James Lee Duncan Carragher?

Tell them about Jamie.

Born January 28.

Where in the world

The English boy known as

Liverpool's Number One Fan...

The question now is.

Will he make it?

OK. everybody listen to me.

This boy was spotted

on your bus.

He is an English runaway.

His name is Will Brennan.

Yeah. come on. mate. We're Liverpool fans.

Not bloody criminals!

- Hey. it's our super brain...

- Shh!
