Wishmaster 4: The Prophecy Fulfilled Page #2

cut off your nose to spite

your face,

But that's not going to change the

testimony of my star witness.

I think you know-- The designer

of the braking system

That failed on my client's bike.

The one that's cashing the

payoff checks to keep him quiet.

Mr. Hollister?

You get the point, Doug, huh?

Graft just doesn't inspire the same

loyalty these days, does it, Doug?

I'll tell you what,

sign the agreement,

fax it over to my office and

we'll end this painful exchange?

I know that you're racked

with pain over this,

but I'm not the one holding

a gun to your head, am I?

You know me, Doug,

I love a good story.

Shoot.

Okay... yeah.

It's been fun, Doug.

All right.

You see?

He was dying to get it done.

Am I supposed to believe someone

was actually on the other end?

Have a look.

I love my job.

- I can't believe it.

- Oh, believe it.

I've also decided

not to take a fee.

Steven?

It is not about money

for me, Lisa.

- I can't let you do that.

- It's done.

Go home and share

the good news with Sam.

Enjoy it.

What happened to you last night?

You might say I was reborn.

Thank you.

- Sam!

- Yeah?

You are not going to believe this!

He did it!

Steven did it!

Sounds like breakfast went well.

$10 million!

They settled

And faxed the agreement

right to his office.

Sam, can you believe this?

Great. Now we can start arguing

about how to split it.

He not taking anything.

he's not taking a fee.

I was talking about us.

- This is good news.

- It is.

It's your last hurdle

on your path to freedom.

I understand why

you're so excited.

You think I've stayed to get

a piece of this settlement?

It's the best reason

I can come up with.

Why are you doing this, Sam?

Why are you doing this to me?

Hello.

It's for you.

Hello.

Have you two booked your trip

around the world yet?

Not yet.

I was hoping I could take you both

to dinner tonight to celebrate.

I don't think so, Steven.

Come on. This case has been hard

on everyone.

Let me share your good fortune

for one night.

I don't think Sam's up to it.

Put him on then.

That's the least he can do

for $10 million.

- What time?

- 8:
00, the palace.

Okay.

A few loose ends to tie up?

He wants to take us

to dinner to celebrate.

I assume you don't want to go.

I wouldn't want to be a third wheel.

Or a fourth, fifth,

six and seventh for that matter.

Enjoy your dinner.

Thank you.

Wow! You look fantastic.

- Thank you.

- Please.

Where's Sam?

He didn't feel up to coming.

I took the liberty

of ordering wine.

I hope you don't mind.

So, a toast--

To your new life.

To your amazing work

and incredible generosity.

You keep that up and you'll

have me drunk in no time.

So, what's with Sam?

why wasn't he up to it?

Was he disappointed

with the settlement?

No, it's not about the money.

There's enough to pay the

medical bills and his therapy,

with a fortune left over.

He just...

He pushes me away

every chance he gets.

It's like I'm a part of his injury.

He doesn't know how to communicate--

Is there something else I can do?

You're not a psychiatrist too,

are you?

I can be anything

you want me to be.

The spoken word is a powerful thing.

Don't be afraid to tell me

what's on your mind.

I just wish Sam could walk again.

Yeah.

I understand.

Here we go.

That looks terrific.

Thank you.

Well, dig in.

Can I take these for you?

Yeah, please.

I wish someone would

kiss me like that.

- They will.

- I won't hold my breath.

Lisa, you forgot your dessert.

Sam...

- How was dinner?

- It was great.

Normally I'd say

I wish you were there, but,

that would be a lie.

Obviously you've been busy here

with something more important.

If you need anything...

Call me.

We need to get you to a doctor.

It's not your problem anymore.

If not mine, then whose?

I've been here through it all.

and like it or not,

Whatever this miracle is,

I'm a part of it.

just because I was

out for dinner with Steven--

This is about my legs,

nothing else.

That's why you need

to see a doctor.

Let me rephrase this for you.

All I feel is pain.

And the only place

I have feeling is in my legs.

It means he's walking.

None of the doctors can explain it.

The x-rays still show

the damage, he's in pain,

But he's walking.

I've got to do his chart.

I'll bet anything

mercury went retrograde

And passed through

his fourth house.

What?

I'll explain it later.

What about his mojo?

is that rising?

- What are you talking about?

- Sex.

Have you guys done it yet?

It'll come.

I'll work up his chart

And give you an e.t.e.--

Estimated time of erection."

I don't know.

Do you think this

makes me look too fat?

Only in the right places, right?

- Yeah.

- Really?

Can I help you with something?

Yes, I believe you can.

Steven, what are you doing here?

This is nice, Lisa.

with your new windfall,

You guys could expand

and franchise.

Yeah, we like the intimacy.

It makes it a lot easier

for women to shop.

Especially for underwear.

I don't remember underwear

looking like this.

Great choice, wrong size.

I'd say you're more of a 16.

Course, I couldn't be sure

until I saw it on you.

Would you like a dressing room?

Only if you have the shoes to match.

This is my partner Tracy.

Tracy this is Steven Verdel

our lawyer.

And friend.

Nice to meet you, Tracy.

So you're the man responsible

for the resurrection?

No, he's the man responsible

for the settlement.

Whatever. Destiny has a way of

tying things together.

I couldn't agree more.

In fact, that's why I'm here.

I was hoping when you

got off work

You'd come by my place,

we could talk about it?

Our destiny?

I think the last 24 hours

have been rather miraculous,

Wouldn't you say?

And I was thinking that--

well...

I was hoping that it had

something to do with you and me.

Come on, it will be just talking.

I'll make you a real mean

cup of coffee.

Okay, but I have to check

on Sam first.

Okay then.

Tonight?

- Yeah.

- Great.

- It was nice meeting you.

- You, too.

You'd better be careful, Lisa.

An aura that strong

is capable of anything.

You going somewhere?

Get a beer.

You don't want one, do you?

Since when do you need

a haircut to get a beer?

since I started walking.

Sam, we need to talk about us.

Are you sure you don't

want Verdel here?

He's a good lawyer, isn't he?

I understood your anger before.

I mean, look at you,

you can walk.

I don't understand why

we can't be--

What?

Pretend like it never happened?

pretend like I didn't see

the way you looked at me

When you bathed me, dressed me

and wheeled me down the street?

That is not true.

I always loved you.

You pitied me.

No, you pitied you.

I didn't fall in love

with your legs, Sam.

All I ever wanted was for us

to love each other

Like we did before.

It's not like it was before.

I know. And you remind me

every chance you get.

Look, we're not married.

The settlement's half yours.

why don't we get it over with
