"Did you fall off again?" " I'm practicing a new kind of dismount." " Jesus, no." " Jesus, yes." " We're out here playing some kind of goddamn cowboys and my horse can't keep up." " Dammit!" " Oh Scott, what are we doing?" " Katie..." "I think we're having a heart attack." " No, you're having a thrill again." " This is just one of your goddamn thrills!" " Katie, I don't make the fucking rules!" " I'm just one of the players." " Oh, great one, this isn't the real thing?" " No, it's a goosy situation, baby." " Scott, damn it." " Are you scared?" " Would I be scared?" " Oh Scott, I'm afraid." " Cotton!" " Yeah, what the hell is going on?" " Oh, great one, oh, tell me everything." " Tell me again from the time I was born in your arms." " Will you let me bite your lip?" " Is it all right?" " Oh, I don't think it'll kill me." " I don't know, it's pretty potent stuff." " Let me try..." "What are you doing on your butts?" " Scott, he thinks he's having a heart attack." " You bet you 1,000 to one he is." " Maybe we better give him a couple of shots." " Just in case." " Just in case what?" " Just in case you need them." " Pull up his shirt for me." " This will have to go in the belly." " Oh, goddamnit, not in the belly." " In the arm, in the arm, Cotton." " No, it's got to go in the belly part." " Goddamnit, I'll kick you right in the head, Cotton." " Not in the belly, that shot does not go in the belly!" " Stop it, just stop it now!" " Just this try to be brave part." " Oh, brave." " You know, honey, I was seeing one of those big rabies shots." " You ever seen one of those?" " Yeah, yeah." " Oh goddamnit, they're awesome things." " Oh, Scott, this is the real thing, damn you." " Listen, honey, if I have to go," "what'll you do?" " I will not cry." " I will not wear ugly black." " And I will go forward with your strength and live life to the fullest, sir." " You'll be good about this?" " Oh, I have to." " Those are the rules." " I sure would like to change them and take you with me." " Oh, I'll go." " But you're not going anywhere." " Where am I now?" " I mean, what did it do to me?" " Well, you won't be playing King Kong anymore." " What about Mighty Mouse?" " Don't know about Mighty Mouse yet." " Oh, there's my baby." " No, no, no." " Might be catching." " Will you shut up and listen to me?" " I don't want to listen to you." " You're saying a lot of shit." " Unfortunately, it is shit." " Tough, ugly shit." " And that's not all of it." " Okay, you're saying my fucking heart's no good." " I'm listening!" " The rest of it is that you don't get a new one." " Of course you do." " They do it every day." " Not true." " That's just not true." " Over 60, you don't get a heart." " You're joking." " You're not joking." " Who made that rule?" " I don't know, common sense, I guess." " God!" " Can it be broken?" " Not really." " Hey, what are you bawling about?" " It's just..." "Does she know about it?" " She's no dummy, Scott." " Look at her." " God, she's beautiful." " Full of health." " Damn it, son of a bitch." " Katie, I hate for you to see me like this." " The hell is that?" " What is that?" " Oh come on, not a number, for Christ's sake." " They don't mean a goddamn... son of a bitch!" " Go ahead, inject him." " You're a big boy, you know the facts and consequences." " Facts and consequences my ass." " Scotty, we love you and I want you to think about that." " Kiss me, baby, kiss me." " I'm sorry, Fred, I'm sorry." " I'll be back soon, pal." " Okay, okay." " Helen, I'm sorry, I apologize." " Just blew my top." " Katie." " That feels wonderful." " Why do I love you so?" " Come on now." " Give me the lip." " This is a no no, no no." " I'll tell you when it's a no no." " Come on, put out your lip, put out your lip." " Come on, I need." " That makes me feel better." " That's about it." " All right, you make the changes and patch them to me." " No, no, no, right here at the ranch." " I need you." " Right." " Honey, that was beautiful." " But a little more spur and a little less love and you might get a better performance out of him." " Well, he's just being a bad boy today." " Just like you sometimes." " Maybe you're right." " Let me see you ride him around again." " Where have you been?" " Oh, I, uh, I went to visit an old sweetheart of mine." " No, I just, just riding around, roaming." " You're just a bad boy." " Katie, let's go for a walk." " But you can't." " Why not?" " You just can't." " Ah, come on." " Can you?" " Katie, I want to go walking with you." " You sure?" " I'm sure." " Okay." " Well, who backs up first, you or me?" " You." " Okay, boss." " Come on." " How do we jump over this?" " You're the genius." " You'll figure something out." " Goddamnit." " Oh, goddamnit." " Oh God," "God, look how beautiful it is." " I love this country." " Katie, I want to ask your forgiveness." " You're scaring me, great one." " I just want you to remember all the good times." " That's every single second." " Once more." " Not even once more." " Oh, my love." " A lot of good things are getting away from me, Katie." " It's no big deal, Scott." " You're right." " It's no big deal." " I'm no goddamn Hemingway." " I'm not even Norman Mailer." " Dear Katie." " No, don't go up there!" " Please, Mrs. Scott, I think we ought to." " No, don't go!" " Please let us." " No, wait, no, don't come." " Look at me." " Don't come up here." " Ma'am I think we should." " Just go, please, just go!" " Katie, my love, I short changed you the other day when I said you put the cherry on my cake." " You are my cake." " And now I have to kiss you goodbye." " Oh Scott, don't say these awful things." " We are May" " December lovers and have been from day one." " We used to joke about it, if and when, and you always said you'd forgive me if I felt this was necessary." " Katie, it is necessary." " I have no options." " It's necessary that you hold me and love me, great one, you son of a bitch!" " Oh, Scott, love me." " Oh, Scott, let me in, please." " Oh God, what have I done?" " God never comes for suicides." " It wasn't a suicide." " It was a mercy killing." " I gave myself a euthanasia shot." " Very much against the rules." " I don't like rules." " How unusual." " You must be the very first person who ever felt that way." " Who are you?" " Well, the devil has her tail and angels have wings." " You, you're an angel?" " Well, I must say, you're a gorgeous one." " Thank you." " Gorgeous is a nice word." " I'm a fledgling angel." " Oh." " And you are my first case." " Isn't that interesting?" " I was Katie's first case." " They have shrouded themselves in sorrow." " In his last hours in 1890, Crow Foot, the great warrior also buried here." " Spoke of life, not of death." " What is life?" " It is the flash of a firefly in the night." " It is the breath of a buffalo in the winter time." " Scott." " Katie, take a deep breath and a deep, deep seat." " Ta da!" " I'm back." " Please look at me." " It's me." " I'm back." " Don't be scared." " Look, it's me." " Remember how we used to joke and speculate about how it would be when I was dead?" " Well the joke is, it's exactly like that." " Honey, you're wearing black and you're crying." " And I thought there wasn't going to be any of that." " I know, I'm sorry, Scott." " They all insist that you be sad." " But I am sad." " I don't like that." " Are you all right, Kate?" " Fine, I'm fine." " Honey, now you've gone and done it." " Just bow your head sadly." " That'll make them all feel better." " You'll have to go and do something." " You know, they say it's mandatory, got all kinds of rules and laws up here." " Will I see you again." " Absolutely." " You promise?" " I promise." " Katie, do you..." "Do you still love me?" " Oh yes, I love you." " I really want to thank you for this, this funeral." " I mean, it's better than I imagined." " I mean, right to the letter." " I mean, the mountains, the buffalo robe, and I want to thank you for inviting Gambler." " That was sweet." " He shall return again and again, for he has never left us, he will live on." " For the spirit knows no death." " The spirit laughs at death." " Our eyes will see him, for that is the way of all great spirits." " So do not grieve, my brothers." " Do not grieve, my sisters." " Great Scott, the great Scott lives." " Scott, hey, hey." " Hey, look at the camera." " That's great." " You too, Scott." " That's great." " That's just terrific." " God, you look good enough to eat." " But of course that's probably out of the question now." " Scott, am I doing this?" " Am I making you UP?" " Honey, I don't know the physics of the phenomenon." " But are you dead?" " Yes, Katie, God was going to get me, so I beat him to it with a 12 gauge." " But you could have taken pills." " Real men don't eat quiche." " Well that's fine for you, Scott." " What about me?" " What am I going to do now?" " Stand up." " Stand up on your feet." " Come on, come on, stand up." " Come on!" " Now, shoulders back." " Straight back." " Stand tall." " Titties out." " Now, where were we going before all this happened?" " I can't go there now." " Honey, it's your favorite place in the whole world." " I know, but I can't go." " Why not?" " Well, because you're out there on the prairie." " I'm not out there, I'm not here, I'm not anywhere." " Honey, I'm not people." " I'm just a ghost." " Come on." " Go on." " Will you come?" " I'm sure going to try." " That's the woman." " She's the one, I'm sure, I'm certain of that." " Katie, Katie, look." " I'm here." " Oh, Scott, I hate this." " Damn you and your shotgun." " She's talking to someone, but there is no one." " Maybe on the land." " Goddamnit, Katie, I was nothing but a goddamn piece of meat." " Big bang was absolutely right." " Well you were absolutely wrong." " You are absolutely wrong." " Look at you." " You're here but you're not here." " Yes, but I am here." " Damn it, Scott, this stinks." " No, you know what it really does?" " It sucks!" " Please, don't use that word." " It sucks." " I'll find a way." " I'll work it out." " I promise you." " Promise me?" " You can't even swim with me." " Honey, we'll do it all again." " I can hardly feel it when you touch me." " It's like a butterfly flew by." " You're a ghost, Scott." " Ghosts can't do it, it's that simple." " Katie, please, please stop this kind of talk." " You stop it." " Stop it, stop it, stop it!" " You blew your head off, I didn't." " And you did this to us, not me." " Katie, will you shut up?" " Shut up yourself." " Katie, will you listen to me?" " I'm listening." " That's my girl." " I'm your girl, all right." " But you're not my man, you're my ghost." " So you do believe I'm a ghost, huh?" " What else could you be?" " I mean, look at you." " Honey, there are stories about ghosts that come back in another body." " Oh Jesus, Scott, don't do that to me." " Oh God, don't do that." " If it's possible, I want to try." " Just think about it." " In another body?" " You mean you'd take another body and with this body you'd make love to me?" " You bet I would." " I mean, if it's possible." " I don't know, Scott." " That's kinky stuff." " We've never been kinky." " Honey, we could get married again." " I mean, God, wouldn't that be wonderful?" " What would you look like?" " Look like?" " Yes, look like." " That's important." " Would you be young?" " If you were offered a choice, would you choose a young man?" " You know, Scott, I've never really had one before." " Are you kidding?" " I was only 50." " How young?" " I think very." " Will he be blond or brunet, redhead?" " Will he be tall, short?" " Whoa, hello there!" " Great, I must look like I'm crazy talking to a beach full of sand." " Do you need any help?" " Is there anything I can do?" " No thank you!" " I was just trying to remember a poem." " From here you look like a very beautiful person!" " Wish there was something I could do!" " No thank you, I'm fine, thank you!" " Fuck off, kid!" " Ciao!" " Oh, she's so..." "Look Katie, I've been thinking, wouldn't it be wonderful if we found someone that looked like me?" " I mean, just a little bit?" " Okay, maybe younger." " I can't talk to you here, I'd look like an idiot." " I like you when you're listening." " I've done more than my share of that." " What are you saying, Katie?" " I didn't say that." " I couldn't have said that." " I love to hear you talk." " God, I love you." " I never loved anybody before." " Well, not as much." " I know that now." " Now you know this?" " Well." " It is marvelous to see you, Mrs. Scott." " May I sit with you for a moment, please?" " Of course, your honor, please do." " Oh, this is going to take a lot of getting used to." " You know that when we heard of the tragedy, we all gathered here, all of us for a memorial." " Many tears were shed." " I'm sure he would have liked that very much." " Actually I would have." " We are so pleased that you are back." " And you know, you should treat every foot of this island as your home." " Well thank you, we love your island very much." " That makes me very happy." " Oh, I'm pleased to hear that." " Good evening, your honor." " Good evening, Mr. Garibaldi." " Would you introduce us or could I introduce myself?" " Katie, look at this." " Look at this kid." " Yes, of course, let me do the introductions." " Mrs. Scott, this is Mr. Garibaldi." " My name is Fausto." " You're Fausto all right." " And mine is Kate." " Fausto, Katie." " Take your hand away, he's romancing you." " Are you romancing me, Fausto?" " Katie, what, are you nuts?" " Look at the kid." " He's coming all over himself." " Yes, I, your beauty demands it." " Oh, you're the young man who saw me on the beach working on my poem." " Yes, I saw that and I was fortunate enough to see much more." " Oh, goddamnit, never, never." " Now look, Katie, don't you fuck around with this kid." " That would kill me." " Would you like to dance?" " No thank you, I think I should get home and go to bed early." " Oh, I'd like that even better." " That's all, you son of a bitch." " What did you say your name was?" " Fausto." " No, Senor what?" " Garibaldi." " Well good night, Senor Garibaldi." " That was fantastic." " I love it." " Tell me, how many of those do you have?" " A bunch." " Well, they shouldn't be here." " They should be in a vault in New York or Hong Kong." " No, if it were vaulted in New York or Hong Kong then I couldn't play with them." " How much are they worth?" " Well the sultan wants that big mama very badly." " But he always gets everything he wants, and I don't think that's very good for a person." " Everything in here, if prices are holding up," "$1,375,000 without the O'Dare." " Oh, that's very impressive." " Well, you'd better get them off the island." " Most of them will be going soon." " The buyers are coming in and they're going to fight over them." " They were just honoring the untimely blowing off of your head." " Darling, you're now the chairman of the board." " My entire empire." " The whole damn thing." " You know, this isn't a five and dime operation." " I mean, you'll have to, god, you'll have to work." " I shouldn't have hit him like that." " But it was fun." " Boom, bang, just like Sugar Ray." " I should have been a boxer." " Have you any idea of how much money we're worth?" " Must be a ton because an awful lot of very important people are always kissing your beautiful little ass." " Honey, $2 billion." " That's 2 billion." " Why don't you go get a body and ravish me?" " Just like the old days." " I'll wait right here." " I'll bet you it can be done." " I just don't want to leave you alone with that Fausto." " Then zap him and use his body." " Zap him?" " You really like that punk, huh?" " Oh, no, but his face when you take him out of it is really quite nice." " And I can't tell for sure, but his body looks like it might be a lot better than just good." " She's right, he's not too bad." " Besides, Katie likes the way he's put together." " He's kind of young for her, but what the hell." " It's her turn now." " And the question is, how do I kick him out?" " I've got it, I've got it." " All we have to do is possess him." " Find a way to zap him." " My god, Scott." " What the hell is he doing here?" " Oh, honey, we can have fun with that body." " Fausto, your body is mine." " Tell him to use sunblock." " I don't want to die of skin cancer." " You will like him, Katie." " I saw him go skinny dipping the other night." " Oh please, Scott, stop it." " Now see what you've made me do." " All right, all right, you tell him your problem." " All right, I will." " Okay." " You must think I'm crazy talking to myself." " Well, I'm not." " I'm talking to the ghost of my dead husband." " He's right there." " You do think I'm crazy." " All right, you were skinny dipping last night." " How about that?" " So, I was skinny dipping." " Well how did I know about it?" " I guess you were on the beach." " No, I was in bed." " He saw you." " Well, if you say so." " Oh, I do say so." " Do you know what he wants?" " No." " Oh shit." " He wants to possess your body." " Honey, honey, I don't think he's quite grasping it." " Well then you tell him." " I prefer you possess me." " See, I don't think he's following us." " I can't do it." " I'm not strong enough." " And I'm not wise enough." " But it doesn't take brains." " You know, you have a nice head of hair." " It'll be nice to have that again." " Look, I was just joking." " Well I'm not, get away from me." " How are your teeth?" " Mr. Garibaldi, I don't like you." " That's good, not too tough." " Don't drive him too far away." " Scott, please." " But I'm just anxious." " My angel says I only have a couple of days." " So what do you say?" " All right." " You want to know what the crazy lady and her dead husband talk about?" " I'll tell you and you'll probably like this part." " He says you're not bad looking." " Where is he?" " I'd like to thank him." " There." " Thank you." " You're welcome." " And then we discuss a quick way for you to die." " How do you like it so far?" " Well, just the handsome part." " He just said not bad looking." " What do you think?" " Well, the outside's fine." " But the inside appears to stink." " Honey, you don't have to insult him." " Kate!" " Honey, look, it's Win." " What a surprise, Winston!" " Hey, Katie!" " Win, Winston!" " Why are you so happy?" " I'm so glad to see him." " Let me look at you." " You've held up pretty well." " Those were his orders." " You're more beautiful than ever." " How many times have you said that in your long life, Win?" " We haven't met." " I'm Winston Hill." " Fausto Garibaldi." " Come on, Win, I want to show you around." " Is there room for four on this boat?" " No, you're right, four would slump us." " You'd better swim." " Oh, I'm sorry, I should have stayed on board." " No, you should be right where you are." " No, no, no, Win should go home and the kid should stay here and be wrapped up in cotton until we need him." " Kate, when I heard, I was stunned." " Well, what else would the great Scott do?" " He loved Hemingway." " He always admired the way Hemingway did it." " But he's all right now." " I have it on good authority he's an angel first class." " On his way to becoming a good looking, dark haired young man." " Win, something you should look into." " He sure loved you." " I still do." " What are you doing here, Win?" " Are you taking a vacation?" " No, I came to see you." " Me?" " You've come halfway around the world just to see me?" " I wanted to talk to you in person about Scott's business, your business now." " I tried to understand it, but I never really could." " He would sit me down and try to teach me, but" "I just wanted to love him and take him outside and enjoy and play with all this." " And you did too, and he loved it." " You made him the luckiest man on the face of the earth." " He was envied for his beautiful Katie." " I wish I could have done all that for him." " And I wish his empire could have excited me." " Wait a minute, let's hear what he has to say about the boring empire." " Well, I'm afraid now you're going to have to give it your complete attention." " Tell me." " Well, everybody's after it, bits and pieces of it, raiders." " Christ, I'm not cold yet and everybody wants to gobble me up." " What can I do about it?" " Well you're chairman of the board." " You sit on all the bits and pieces." " You have to stop them." " But I have no idea how to do that." " I'll show you." " Katie, you have to go to Hong Kong right away." " I think I should go to Hong Kong right away." " I was just going to say that, Hong Kong." " And don't forget, you be all the woman that you are." " Boggle their brains." " Okay." " Now don't be afraid to be a woman." " It's a deadly weapon, so use it." " You used my exact words." " Exact words." " Well I hope I make you all proud." " It's after you and after you and after me." " Well, gentlemen, I hope I was clear and not too vacant headed, because from the look of this room, it isn't woman's work we're doing here today, is it?" " It has been decided that there is no point that can be argued." " The point is based as it is stated." " It's not ambiguous." " There's no room for any rhetoric." " You must yield." " Must?" " Who the fuck are you?" " I never saw you before." " Must, who the fuck are you?" " I've never even seen you before." " Don't come down to their level." " Where does that have a bearing on the point of issue?" " Tell him we're going back to the Indian ocean to put away their knives and go home." " Now I would suggest you put away your knives." " You haven't got one sharp enough to carve up a Scott." " The great Scott lives on in me." " And believe me, this city will be reduced to dust before you will best me." " Does Tai Pan ring a bell?" " This has been interesting." " Tomorrow at 11:00 we will vote and that will settle it for now." " But be assured, Mrs. Scott, that in this room there are knives sharp enough to cut you to the bone." " And hearts cold enough to eat yours as hors d'oeuvres." " You bet your sweet little ass, honey." " You're too pretty to eat that." " You noticed." " You've got him, honey." " I'm sorry I'm so shy, I'm embarrassed." " So am I." "The tango!" " When you say dance, you mean dance with a capital D." "I love it!" " I can see that, but seriously, Win," "Scott and I never danced a step." " He hated it." " You can't hate it." " No, I love it, but I don't think I could really dance with someone." " It was so long ago when I was just a little girl." " It'll all come back to you." " Come on." " How can it come back to me?" " I've never done this before." " Well, you're going to love it." " All right, so you don't love it." " I'm sorry, Win." " I've just never been with another man before." " Not even to dance with." " I understand." " Someday, maybe not now, but someday, you're going to have to, Kate." " Son of a bitch." " Would you like to go for a swim?" " I have been swimming with men before." " Are there any other choices?" " No." " No." " Let's swim." " The pool should be empty at this time." " No, no actually I shouldn't be swimming or dancing." " That's right, he can't, he can't swim or dance." " There are a lot of calls to be made about tomorrow's vote." " Well I'll help you." " No, no you go on with your swim and afterward we'll talk strategy." " You sure?" " Yeah." " Yeah, I'm sure." " How long you going to stay in?" " Should I get out?" " No, no, no." " You stay in." " I'm going to see some of my old buddies." " Katie, are you all right?" " I don't think I am all right." " You're doing fine, honey." " No, Scott and Kate." " It was like what worked." " It's not all right with just Kate." " It's still Scott and Kate!" " It always will be." " Will you kiss me?" " Honey, you won't hear bells ring." " They haven't stopped ringing since the first time you kissed me." " Did I make bells ring for you?" " Oh honey, you made life ring for me." " Broad's a fucking fruitcake." " Yeah, right." " We can count on you then?" " Put the fucking phone down." " Oh my god, oh my god." " I'm sorry, but you scared me to death." " This is the ladies locker room." " The mens is down the hall." " You're not lost, are you?" " You're right where you want to be." " And I'm in trouble." " I won't hurt you unless you make me." " Why would I want to make you hurt me?" " Yeah, why would you?" " Just don't scream again, do exactly as I tell you, and you might come out okay." " No, no, I can't let you rape me." " Oh no." " Oh." " Hi there." " What makes you think I want to rape you?" " Because there are a lot of rapists in the world." " Yeah, yeah, there are a lot." " Lot of killings too." " Yes there are, but there are more rapes." " All right, whatever." " Look, I don't want to argue with you." " You probably know more than me anyway." " I know you didn't come here to kill me." " You said, you said, and this is almost exactly what you said if you don't scream and if you do as you're told, you won't get hurt." " Now that's not murder." " No, you came here to rape me." " Oh, you want to get raped?" " Yes, every day if my other choice is killed." " I want you to be good, so very, very good." " I could hear you scream clear across town." " Oh Scott, you came just in time." " For God's sake, you're bare ass naked." " Well I'm sorry, but I was running for my life." " Who's the seedy looking bastard?" " Well he wants to rape me, or kill." " I don't really know what he wants, Scott." " What do you want?" " All I want you to do is to take two little pills." " It's so simple." " I'm not going to take any pills." " Of course you're not." " You'd never make the meeting." " That's why Chan sent this goddamn goon here." " That's why I told him I wouldn't take any." " But how am I not going to take any pills?" " Katie, if you were only a man and these were the good old days." " Oh god, I'd pow!" " But I'm not a man and these aren't the good old days and how am I not going to take them?" " You watch me, watch me." " Watch you?" " I can hardly see you." " You know, sometimes you're almost impossible to see." " Pretend to take them and put them inside your mouth." " Yes, but that's a very old trick." " Come on, look at him." " He won't know the difference." " Look at him." " Okay, now you take these two little pills, you see?" " These two little pills." " And then we'll put you beddy-byes, all right?" " Take the pills." " All right." " Come on, take them." " There seems to be no way to avoid these pretty pills." " So here they go." " All right, swallow the fucking pills or I'm going to give it to you like the suppository!" " Katie, don't!" " Or I'll give it to you like a suppository." " Honey, you've got to fight the pills." " Yes." " Will you help me?" " I can't hold you up." " You're on your own." " Of course." " I'm sorry." " Get some clothes and let's get out of here." " Now, I've been down the shaft and it's perfect." " All you've got to do is take a deep breath and think." "  I can't." "  Think!" " I'm awake." " I'm awake." " But I'm not really." " That's bullshit, Katie, and you know it!" " All you gotta do is think, I'm awake!" " Come on, I'm awake." " I hope I can do it right." " Katie, you can if you want to." " God, it's that simple." " I know, that's what you always said." " So where's our new body?" " That is not..." "That is not that simple." " Well, we busted their balls." " Did I win?" " I did, didn't I?" " You were good." " I read your book." " And I won, I did." " I beat you." " You were very good." " You played the situation perfectly." " So I beat the situation, but not you." " That's what you did." " I think you like to make mischief." " You noticed that too." " Winston!" " Kate!" " Hey, Winston." " Kate, I'm sorry!" " I was late, I missed it." " No, it's all right." " We beat him, Scott said we busted their balls." " You won and Scott said?" " The pirates retreated." " Hey, wait a second." " You single handedly beat that room full of sharks?" " Yes, but I had good coaching." " Well, it really wasn't one of my best days." " No, I might have told you a thing or two, but not enough to win the day." " No Win, you told me marvelous things." " But Scott also helped me." " He told me exactly what to say." " You know, baby, he thinks you're cuckoo." " Oh Win, I'm not losing my marbles." " Don't worry, if you do I'll pick them up for you." " Now she doesn't need you to pick them up." " I'm going to go home now to the islands." " Oh, I'll see you get there safely." " No you don't, I take her there." " Well that's sweet, but it's not just across town." " Kate." " I've always loved you, I'm sure you've known that." " Just being around you for a while would be like Christmas for me." " Don't say no." " You say no, loud and clear." " You love me?" " I never knew." " Well, your Scott always was a blinding light." " Well, that's very nice of you, Win." " Are you packed?" " Am I packed?" " Five minutes." " Earlier you mentioned love, Win." " You can't talk love to him." " Love is a big word." " Love is our word." " I've loved you for as long as he has." " Will you stop this talk, both of you?" " Oh, you stop it." " I'm sorry, Win, not you." " But he's here in the plane with us." " And he thinks love is our word." " Well, it is, it always has been." " You see, even he knows it." " Katie, I can't stand this kind of talk from you." " Well you could sit out on the wing for a minute and then you wouldn't hear." " I'll go out and try to behave." " Why did God make you so young?" " Because you probably wouldn't have accepted me any other way." " Just be careful." " You've got a..." "We've got a good thing going." " Don't let go of it yet." " Are you watching my marbles fall out, Win?" " Uh-huh, but I'm sure you've got plenty left." " Oh, I don't know about plenty." " Are we all right?" " Are we still history's greatest lovers?" " The way you put it, we're hanging in." " I'm sorry, Win." " Our friendly ghost is back." " I heard." " You heard him?" " No, I heard you!" " Oh, of course me." " See, if I waited to talk to him only when no one was listening, I'd go crazy because he's always talking to me." " I feel like you're a kite that's about to catch a strong gust of wind and be torn from me forever." " I won't be that kite." " You've turned away the wolves." " You're an amazing young lady." " Thank you, Win." " Come on, let's dance." " No, Win, I can't." " Ah, come on." " No, Win, you know I can't." " Please." " I'm sorry." " Well you're fantastic." " You like that kind of stuff?" " Well yes, Scott, a little bit sometimes." " Come on, dance with me." " Really?" " Really." " What are you doing?" " Well I think I'm dancing, Scott." " Babe, where'd you learn that?" " In the kitchen or the bathroom or wherever it wouldn't bother you." " You said you didn't dance?" "!" " I don't, I never have!" " Not with a person." " When I return, we're going to do this a lot." " I'll have new legs then." " Ooh, we're better than any of them." " Even that kid with the one glove." " Ooh, Katie!" " She making you lose it, Minister?" " Hear you talking to yourself." " My god, what we've missed." " Stop that!" " In God's name, I command you to stop!" " The devil is in you!" " What are you doing, reverend?" " Have you gone crazy?" " She is desecrating the Sabbath!" " It's Friday." " Did you see her dance?" " Yes, it was like a mission." " And then you came and stopped the music, reverend." " Turn the music on, please." " No." " Yes, I want to see her dance." " No, God says no!" " No, it's all right, reverend." " It's all right." " Your she devil won't dance any more tonight." " Yes!" " Praise God!" " Hold me and I will take the devil from your body." " Praise God, I can feel it happening." " Thank you, reverend." " It's over, he's gone." " Thank you." " It's over." " I'm at peace now." " Yes, yes." " I could feel him enter my body." " Yes." " God will deal with him now." " Kate, if you want to dance, dance." " Of course, it's not even Sunday." " Come on, honey." " Ask him to play some slow dance." " May we have slow music now?" " That loud thing over there does not make slow music." " But I'll make it for you, yes, I will." " Kate." " Kate." " What are you doing?" " Scott just wanted to slow dance." " It's our first time." " I love it." " Are you having a good time?" " The time of my life." " Katie." " Katie." " I want a decision now." " But I can't kill him." " You know I hate to even swat a fly." " Nobody's going to come forward and donate his body." " He's with us again now, isn't he?" " Yes, Win." " Katie, you know, after all the research," "I've found rat poison is the simplest." " He certainly gave you paradise." " I can't stand to see a man slump like a sack of shit on a horse or an elephant." " Can you imagine rat poison?" " No, of course she didn't invent the black pearl." " But who cared about it before?" " Nobody." " Now she's turned it into something real special." " But did she have to dive for them with nothing on." " They say she's stark ass naked." " Well that's no big deal." " So she's wild and crazy." " And that great surgeon, what's his name?" " You know the one." " What, the breasts too?" " Absolutely breasts." " Darling, who in the world but you and me haven't done their breasts?" " Well that's true." " Hello!" " I'm Kate Scott." " Thank you for coming so far to see my pearls." " Remember how I could hit the ball?" " Ha, got you." " No, no." " Come on now, dig in and get it." " All right, watch this one now." " Katie, you were great and will be again." " I'm only living for that moment." " For what moment?" " Oh, I was just talking with my ghost." " Your husband?" " Mm-hmm." " It happens like that with great loves." " You know, neither can let the other go." " Hey, she's not only good looking, she's no dummy." " Ask her if she knows anything about possession." " He wants to know if you know anything about possession." " Is he looking for a body?" " You know about it?" " I'm a white witch." " A white witch?" " Well can you see him?" " No." " But I think I can feel him." " Hi, I'm Fausto Garibaldi." " Sabine Justin." " I think Fausto and Sabine should dance sometime." " No, there is an obvious reason why this won't happen." " I have absolutely no desire to dance with you." " Oh, you'll watch me and you'll scream in your dreams, Fausto, I love you." " And I'll forgive you, Sabine." " Oh no, no, no!" " We win!" " You hustle real good, Miss Scott." " You can stay and play in the game." " What?" " Well, that should be a body worth considering." " That's the one he picked." " He liked the hair and the teeth and the rest, I guess." " Well how do you feel about it?" " I don't know." " You do realize you can only occupy a body at the actual moment of death." " I guess so." " But how's this death going to happen?" " Rat poison." " Rat poison." " Rat poison?" " Excuse me, but I do have some shopping to do." " Okay, I'll see you later." " Katie, that should be easy for you." " He's absolutely worthless." " He's full of vanity, nothing more." " Scott, I need to think about this all by myself." " The outsider, that is what we need." " You could have such fun with that body." " Oh, shut up, Scott!" " Shut up?" " Katie, shut up?" " No, I didn't say that." " I said I have to think about this all by myself." " Okay." " Fair enough." " You want it, you got it." " I love you." " You should, Katie." " When you're over here, looking back, you know." " You know what love is." " It's what we always said it was." " It's everything." " Only it takes two." " Well I'm going to think about this now, Scott." " But all by myself." " Did you dance with Katie like this?" " I can never dance with Katie like this." " Maybe it is a difficult thing." " But that Mickey Mouse contraption she has invented got it." " It's quite cunning, I feel." " I'm awfully greedy." " I want the whole thing." " You are a killer." " I think I'm going to go see the widow Scott." " I mix a little drink of rat poison and papaya." " And then I hand it to him." " I smile and his dirty eyes smile back." " And he drinks it all down." " But then he looks at me in disbelief as it dawns on him that I poisoned him." " He staggers back, falling." " Struggling, in horrible pain." " And then he dies." " But then the great one slips into his body." " And he's up like a shot, eyes twinkling and bright." " Then he sweeps me into his arms and then he carries me to bed." " And looks deep into my eyes." " And says, "Don't be afraid, Katie."" "" I'm not..."" "Fausto." " Oh!" " Fausto, Mrs. Scott." " Doing your poetry again?" " Yes, don't go in the light." " Why, will the bells ring?" " That's Scott's house." " That sounds bad." " This the O'Dare?" " Hard to believe this is really the largest black pearl in the whole world." " Of course it's the largest." " You're a bastard, Fausto, a selfish, rotten bastard!" " Get a gun." " Get a gun!" " This punk's up to no good." " All right, get out." " No, like you said, I'm a selfish, rotten bastard." " Get a gun, get a gun!" " Yes, yes I will." " I'll get a gun." " More of your poetry, Mrs. Scott?" " Hold on tight now!" " Good girl." " A look at that should make him go limp." " All right, out of here now, damn it." " Do you really think a gorgeous thing like you could shoot a gorgeous thing like me?" " Fausto!" " What, Mrs. Scott?" " Shoot!" " But I can't shoot!" " Why, Mrs. Scott?" " Move the gun a little over to the right." " Put it on his heart!" " I can't." " Squeeze the trigger." " And in one second we could be together forever." " I know." " Oh, oh no." " Oh my god." " My god, it was all there." " I know, and I want it so bad." " Well you don't have to want anymore." " This selfish bastard will give you what you want." " And much more." " No!" " God, you're sloppy." " You're better than that." " This isn't make believe!" " He's not my instructor!" " Put an end to it!" " That was a really good try, real good." " Fausto, go home!" " I hope you're as much fun in bed as you are getting you there." " You should have shot him." " If you don't shut up I'll shoot you." " We've already been through that." " Am I hearing shut up again?" " Yes, shut up and let me fight!" " All right, get him!" " We're out of gas!" " Hit him with a club." " Grab the club and hit him." " Okay." " Are you going to use that club like you use the gun?" " Yeah, yeah." " Hit him, now!" " Katie, now!" " I can't!" " Yes you can!" " I can't!" " This is perfect." " Now get the poison." " Stop!" " Come on." " Stop!" " Where is it?" " There." " Oh." " Pull his lips open and pour it in." " Yes, his lips, I know, open them." " Pull his lips open and pour it in." " Oh, okay, okay, no problem." " Yes, God, then God, do it!" " Oh, I can't." " Goddamnit, son of a bitch!" " I'm sorry." " I don't need sorry." " I need, I need that body." " And I want you to have it." " If you love me greatly and I mean greatly, as you always claimed, that boy lying there would be me." " Now unless the little son of a bitch commits suicide, as you kids say, I am out of here." " No!" " I am history!" " No!" " Kate?" " Katie, what happened?" " Kate, is he dead?" " No." " But he should be." " He will be, Scott!" " Kate?" " Oh, Winston." " Are you all right?" " Katie, is he here?" " Who?" " Your husband." " I hurt him and he left." " He's dead." " I'm sure he must be dead." " No, no, he's not dead." " I can feel his heartbeat very strongly." " Are you all right?" " I'm trying to be, Winston." " What ever happened here?" " Well, I hit him with a club." " But not hard enough." " Why'd you have to hit him?" " Well, he attacked me and we fought, and..." "Oh, what a bad boy he is." " I'm arresting him now and putting him behind bars, and then I will find some suitable punishment for him." " Oh, I'm so sorry." " You did very well to subdue him." " Very well indeed." " I hit him with the war club, but my eyes were closed or I would have done it much better." " Better would have killed him." " Oh yes, I'm sure it would have." " All right, everybody, come on, let's go!" " Everything's under control here." " Just go back to the party and have a good time." " There's nothing more to see here." " Just go back to the party." " Are you sure, Mrs. Scott, that you'll..." "She almost killed me." " I should have." " I'll regret the rest of my life that I didn't!" " Winston, get him out of here." " We'll see you in a while." " Kate?" " I'll be okay." " He's really gone." " But why?" " Have I gone crazy?" " I'm sure under the circumstances, for a moment anybody would." " No, because if I were crazy, I would have been talking to myself and I wasn't." " So I'm not!" " But that means the dirty son of a bitch has left me." " Katie, why should he leave you?" " Because I couldn't kill Fausto." " Oh, I wish I had!" " All right, now listen, Katie, you didn't and he's gone, but somehow you have got to live on." " He has my heart." " How can I live without a heart?" " Most people do it quite easily." " I'll die." " Is there no way I can talk to God, man to man, directly?" " Mm-mm." " Could Katie?" " She could try." " It's a very busy line." " I can imagine." " Well." " I have to tell you something important." " You have one foot in hell." " And if you continue to incite violence, you just may end up in that big bad red pit." " Listen, tell me, how do I get life back?" " You can't." " Come on, of course you can." " You can possess a body." " What I'm trying to tell you is people are afraid to death to die, right?" " First thing they do is to try to get back down there." " Either through reincarnation or possession." " But you can't do that." " Those are fairy tales." " I have to get back." " Eternity without her is, it's... it's impossible." " In our world there are no shortcuts." " There's no way out of eternity." " You're stuck with it." " Kate, want to show them what you've done." " Okay, Win." " You got their attention." " Oh, I'm sorry, I'm so, so sorry." " Forgive me, I'll kill him!" " I knew you would." " Don't forget about the boogeyman pit." " At least give her a choice." " Katie, it could doom you to hell." " Would we be together?" " Yes, yes." " Then let's do it now." " Let's try it, let's see." " It could mean hell forever." " Do you want to go for it?" " It might not work." " Can you hear what I'm saying?" " Loud and clear, are we going for it?" " Like I always say, thrice warned." " What more can you do?" " It's up to you, babe." " We're going for it!" " Kate!" " Where are you going?" "!" " I'm going with you!" " Okay, okay." " Finally." " You're going to get him." " Hold on!" " What is she doing?" " Kate, wait!" " I'm sorry, Win, I'm going to go get him!" " Wait!" " Katie, you're going to get him." " Oh God." " Kate!" " Is she all right?" " She's with Scott." " You believe that?" " No, but she does." " Well I do too, but shouldn't we go after her?" " There's nothing here that can catch her." " Katie!" " Take care!" " Where is he?" " He's not here, he's supposed to be here." " Where's Garibaldi?" " He and the mayor took a boat last night and went somewhere, I guess." " Why is he with the mayor?" " I've got to get back to the island." " I bet Fausto's there." " You can't take the boat." " It'll take too goddamn long." " You'll never get through the reefs." " Then I won't take the boat." " I will fill your brazier cup with pearls for you every year if you will be my very beautiful wife." " But I don't wear a brazier." " You don't." " But you see already how much you have saved for me." " I have to talk to you!" " Alone!" " Mrs. Scott." " Now, your honor, immediately!" " Get him, Kate." " You're damn right!" " You're damn right, of course, immediately Mrs. Scott." " Where is Garibaldi?" " He's in our fine jail." " No he is not." " He escaped?" " Oh, Mrs. Scott, I wish we had a devil's island for this bad boy." " He escaped with you." " Me, with me?" " What are you saying, Mrs. Scott?" " I am saying that you left the jail with" "Garibaldi and took a boat to where?" " We took a boat?" " Yes, we took a boat!" " That's it, Katie, grind him, grind him." " I'm going to ask you one more time." " And then I'm going to beat you up." " Oh, beat me up?" " Yes, beat you up badly." " Yes, of course." " You will and I think you should." " Yes, we did take a boat." " Now, I must remember where we went in this boat." " I'm going to count to three." " Yes, of course, but slowly." " Slowly, please." " There's a strange diver in the pearl bed." " There's a strange diver in the pearl bed." " That's where Garibaldi is." " I'm going to go kill him and then I'm going to come back and break your body into little pieces!" " They only made one of you, Kate." " Only one." " Wait, wait!" " You follow that boat, go on!" " Katie, he's fouled up in the lines down there." " He's already dead!" " No, he's not dead yet." " He's not!" " Let's see." " Kate, here I come!" " Katie, it's no use!" " He's dead!" " It's a good try, but you missed." " Tell your Katie he's gone." " It's time you came with me." " Bullshit." " She'll get him." " You just watch." " Bring him back." " Give him to me." " He's gone, honey." " No, I'll get him." " Kate." " Give me that one precious second." " Kate!" " He's back." " He's breathing." " You are the most willful!" " Katie, you did it!" " You did it!" " Oh my God." " Oh my God." " Scott?" " Scott, are you in there?" " I flew." " Oh, welcome back, you awesome bastard." " We have come to witness the marriage of two people, Kate and Fausto." " And now by virtue of the powers vested in me by the state of Wyoming, I now pronounce you husband and wife." " You may kiss the bride." " You're even more beautiful than the first time." " So are you." " Oh no, Scott." " Oh no, Scott." " No, no, no, I can't." " Scott, no more, I give up." " Isn't this fantastic?" " What a wonderful way to die." " Oh no." " Did I lie to you?" " Are we having fun with this body?" " I told you you'd like him." " Let's make all the bells on Earth ring!" " Oh no, Scott, oh no." " I can't, I can't anymore." " It'll kill me, I promise." " Prepare to die." " Jesus, goddamnit." " Did you fall off again?" " This kid was not much of an athlete." " Oh, poor Scott." " How do I do this?" " Be careful with that rein." " I used to be able to ride like the fucking wind." " Fausto, Fausto." " Scott." " You sure are a good looking son of a bitch." " Always have been."
