Denny: YOU THINK YOU KNOW EVERYTHING
THERE IS TO KNOW ABOUT HEROES?
YESTERDAY I WOKE UP AND I THOUGHT
I KNEW EVERYTHING THERE WAS TO KNOW ABOUT MY LIFE.
BUT I WAS WRONG,
AND I WASN'T JUST WRONG ABOUT MY LIFE,
I WAS WRONG ABOUT MY FRIENDS,
ABOUT MY FAMILY,
ABOUT WHERE I COME FROM.
WAY, WAY WRONG.
Man: HELP! HELP!
( police siren wailing )
( whoosh )
AH! AH!
DON'T KILL ME.
PLEASE DON'T KILL ME.
SHUT UP.
I ALREADY TOLD YOU,
I DON'T KNOW ANYTHING ABOUT POSTMAN PROJECT.
STAND.
SHUT UP,
AND HOLD STILL.
WHAT ARE YOU GOING TO DO? WHAT, WHAT?
AREN'T YOU GOING TO KILL ME?
WELL, NOT RIGHT NOW.
( click, whirring )
NOPE.
( crack )
AARGH.
SIR,
I GOT A NEGATIVE READING AND A VIABLE CANDIDATE.
William: VERY GOOD, MISTER FINCH.
YOU KNOW WHAT TO DO.
COPY THAT.
REPORT BACK WHEN YOU'RE FINISHED.
I'VE HAD AN IDEA THAT WILL TAKE US A LITTLE
CLOSER TO HOME.
SIR.
I KNOW ABOUT YOU.
I KNOW WHO YOU WORK FOR.
WHAT HE WANTS IS IMPOSSIBLE!
YOU SAID YOU WEREN'T GOING TO KILL ME.
WELL,
I SAID, "NOT RIGHT NOW."
IT'S NOT RIGHT NOW ANYMORE.
Boy: DENNY,
YOU'VE BEEN HITTING SNOOZE FOR HALF AN HOUR,
SO, I KNOW YOU CAN HEAR ME.
MOM'S WORKING SO YOU'RE MY RIDE.
( alarm buzzes )
IF I'M LATE AGAIN, I GET DETENTION.
COME ON WAKE UP, DENNY.

DUDE, YOU KNOW MY LEGS MAKES ME SLOWER THAN I USED TO BE.
NO, I'LL JUST TELL MRS. NELSON, YOU COMPLETELY SUCK.
DUDE!
WHOA, SLOW DOWN, ARCHIE.
YOU DON'T WANNA FALL DOWN AND BUST OPEN THAT BRAIN.
I CAN'T, I'M LATE AGAIN.
GOOD MORNING, DEN.
GOOD MORNING, GWEN.
YOU KNOW, IF BOY BRAINIAC GETS ANY MORE TARDIES
YOU'RE GOING TO RUIN HIS CHANCES OF BEING VALEDICTORIAN.
YEAH! BROTHER OF THE YEAR, RIGHT HERE.
HEY, NO, I GOT IT.
YEAH, BUT I GOT IT EASIER.
HOW'S THE LEG?
PHYSICAL THERAPY HURT YESTERDAY,
BUT IF I WANT TO WALK ACROSS THAT STAGE WITHOUT CRUTCHES...
AT LEAST SOMEONE IS GETTING A DIPLOMA.
WELL YOU KNOW,
SUMMER SCHOOL IS NOT THE END OF THE WORLD, GWEN.
YOU JUST TOUGH IT OUT TILL AUGUST,
YOU'LL BE WITH US BY SPRING.
YEAH, SO I CAN ROOM WITH THE UN-POPULAR GIRL,
WITH THAT WICKED BIEBER FEVER OVER THE FALL
AND SINGS YOU "SMILE" IN HER SLEEP?
NEVER SAY NEVER.
NO THANKS,
BESIDES, ACADEMIA ISN'T FOR ME ANYWAYS.
IT DOESN'T HAVE ENOUGH GREASE.
ARE YOU STILL THINKING OF WORKING AT THE SHOP FULL TIME?
STRINGER WANTS ME TO.
PEOPLE WILL ALWAYS HAVE CARS, DENNY,
AND THEY'LL ALWAYS NEED FIXING.
THE PEOPLE OR THE CARS?
IF THEY END UP LIKE YOU, IT'LL BE BOTH.
( laughs )
OH, JUST ONE MORE DAY OF THIS PLACE,
AND THEN THE WORLD IS OURS.
US IN CHARGE OF THE WORLD.
WHAT COULD POSSIBLY GO WRONG WITH THAT?
MUTUALLY ASSURED DESTRUCTION.
CAN ANYONE TELL ME WHAT THAT IS?
YOU SENIORS, I KNOW IT'S YOUR LAST DAY,
BUT THE REST OF YOU NEED TO PAY ATTENTION.
THIS IS GONNA BE ON THE FINAL.
WELL, MAYBE YOU GUYS ARE TOO YOUNG TO REMEMBER
LIFE BEFORE CELL PHONES,
OR FACEBOOK.
SO REMEMBER WHAT IT WAS LIKE.
WHAT?
REMEMBER WHAT WAS WHAT LIKE, MRS. PERRY?
VERY GOOD, MISTER HALL.
I'M GLAD SOMEONE'S AWAKE TODAY.
GOODNESS.
MISTER BURKE.
HAPPY YOU COULD JOIN US.
AH, COME ON, MRS. PERRY,
I WAS TRYING TO SNEAK IN UNNOTICED.
AND YOU FAILED SPECTACULARLY.
PLEASE TAKE YOUR SEAT, DENNY.
I'M GONNA MARK YOU AS TARDY.
HEY, I THINK LISA'S STILL MAD AT YOU.
YEAH, I GOT THAT, THANKS.
OKAY, MISTER HALL.
WHEN YOU PLAY BASKETBALL--
STATE CHAMPIONSHIP BASKETBALL.
PELLIAN CITY HIGH SCHOOL.
YES, YES, YES, WE'RE WELL AWARE
OF YOUR ACCOMPLISHMENTS ON THE COURT.
BUT, HOW DO YOU KNOW WHO WINS THE GAME?
UH, THE TEAM WITH THE MOST POINTS AT THE END WINS?
OKAY.
AND HOW DO YOU SCORE POINTS?
UH, I DON'T KNOW, BUT...
YOU PUT THE BALL THROUGH THE HOOP
UNTIL THE GAME IS OVER, RIGHT?
NOW, WHAT IF, EVERY TIME YOU SCORED A POINT,
YOU WIPED OUT THE OTHER TEAM?
YES.
WELL, YOU HAVE TO KEEP THE OTHER TEAM FROM SCORING.
BUT, BY WINNING YOU'D BE KILLING EVERYBODY.
SO YOU'D NEED YOUR OWN BALL FOR PROTECTION.
SO THEN WHO WINS THE GAME, MISS THOMPSON?
NOBODY DOES.
IT WOULD BE AT A STANDSTILL.
STALEMATE.
YOU SEE, NO ONE WINS IF EVERYONE DIES.
WARFARE'S ABOUT TACTICAL ADVANTAGES.
SOMEONE GETS ONE,
ONE.
THEY'RE JUST TRYING TO SCORE THE FINAL POINT,
BEFORE THE BUZZER.
( bell rings )
HEAVY STUFF IN PEDS TODAY.
WHAT A GREAT NOTE TO END ON.
REALLY MAN, DON'T WORRY ABOUT IT.
WE'VE BEEN COOL WITH THE RUSSIANS SINCE LIKE THE '70s.
Girl: THE COLD WAR ENDED IN '89, MEATHEAD.
NO WONDER YOU'RE FAILING POLI SCI.
OKAY, I'M A '90s KID, ALL RIGHT, GWENDOLYN?
WE'RE '90s KIDS,
WHY DO WE HAVE TO WORRY ABOUT WHO USED TO HAVE MISSILES?
AND I'M PULLING A SOLID C IN THAT CLASS.
IT'S THE MISSILES THAT AREN'T THE SCARY PART,
IT'S THE CONCEPT, ADAM. OH, YEAH.
I KINDA LIKE IT.
SOMEONE BURNS YOU, YOU BURN 'EM BACK.
Denny: YEAH, BUT THEN YOU'RE BOTH LEFT WITH SCARS.
GUYS, GUYS, GUYS.
WE GRADUATE SOON. ALL RIGHT?
AND TOMORROW,
DENNY'S CLIMBING HIS FIRST MOUNTAIN IN OVER A YEAR.
YEAH, IF WE CAN EVEN GET INTO THE PLACE.
TANNER SAID SOME GUY BOUGHT ALL THAT LAND AND CLOSED IT OFF.
YEAH. WELL, LIFE'S ABOUT WORKAROUNDS.
( Gwen laughs )
ARE YOU SURE THIS IS A GOOD IDEA?
WE COULD JUST GO TO THE PRACTICE WALL.
PRACTICE? DENNY, YOU'RE AN AWARD WINNING CLIMBER.
I WAS-- WITH 100 DOCUMENTED HOURS ON THE ROPES.
YOU'VE CLIMBED SOME OF THE MOST DANGEROUS
MOUNTAINS IN THE COUNTRY.
AND IF IT WASN'T FOR YOUR LITTLE ACCIDENT,
WHICH WASN'T YOUR FAULT, I MIGHT ADD,
YOU WOULD HAVE GONE ON MOUNT DOOM ALREADY.
LOOK, THE POINT IS, WE'RE ABOUT TO GRADUATE--
SOME OF US DO.
SOME OF US, RIGHT.
AH, WELL, WE'VE GOT TO GET ALL OF THE STUPID STUFF
OUT OF OUR SYSTEMS BEFORE WE SPLIT UP
AND GO TO DIFFERENT COLLEGES.
YA'LL KNOW COLLEGE KIDS DON'T DO STUPID STUFF.
THEY'RE RESPONSIBLE ADULTS.
IF WORSE COMES TO WORSE, WE'LL ALL BE TOGETHER.
LOOKING UP AT THAT RIDICULOUSLY HIGH MOUNTAIN,
AND YOU GUYS, PLEASE TELL ME,
WHY IS THE MOUNTAIN THERE?
Both: SO IT CAN BE CONQUERED.
BOOM.THANK YOU. EXACTLY.
DENNY, JUST ONE LAST MOUNTAIN BEFORE YOU
WALK ACROSS THAT STAGE
AND INTO THE REST OF YOUR LIFE.
I'M BEGGING YOU, PLEASE.
OKAY.
HEY, DETENTION SHOULD BE OVER BY NOW.
WHERE'S ARCHIE?
♪ I DON'T CARE WHAT YOU'RE LAUGHING ABOUT ♪
OH, LADIES AND GENTLEMEN,
LET ME INTRODUCE OUR SPECIAL GUEST TODAY,
MISTER ARCHIBALD BURKE.
HE'S HERE PROMOTING HIS NEW MOVIE,
I'M A TOTAL EFFING LOSER WITH NO FRIENDS,
EXCEPT FOR BOOKS AND INTERNET VIDEOS.
WHAT CAN YOU TELL US ABOUT THE MOVIE, ARCHIE?
LEAVE ME ALONE.
OH, "LEAVE ME ALONE."
HMM, I'M NOT SURE THAT'S GONNA GET PAST OUR P.R. PEOPLE.
HMM, OKAY, SO LET'S TRY A DIFFERENT QUOTE.
UH, HOW ABOUT, "HEY, THAT'S MINE"?
HEY, THAT'S MINE.
GOOD, YOU CAN TAKE NOTES.
NOW TAKE THIS ONE.
IF YOU KILL THE FINALS CURVE IN TIGGINS' CLASS
NEXT WEEK I'M GONNA COME LOOKING FOR YOU.
I NEED TO PASS THAT CLASS.
IF I TANK IT I'LL WRECK MY G.P.A.
WRECK HIS GPA.
IF YOU DON'T...
I'M GONNA WRECK YOUR LIFE.
GOT IT?
GOT IT.
HEY, THERE HE IS.
WHERE YOU ARE LITTLE MAN, WE WERE--
DUDE, ARCHIE, WHAT HAPPENED?
NOTHING.
NO, TELL ME WHAT HAPPENED.
NOTHING HAPPENED, OKAY!
I JUST FELL DOWN THE STAIRS OR WHATEVER.
DON'T LIE TO ME. WHO DID THIS TO YOU?
WAS IT FERGUSON AND HIS FRIENDS?
I SWEAR-- IT WASN'T ANYBODY, OKAY?
HELL, YOU CAN'T BE ABLE TO DO ANYTHING ABOUT IT ANYWAY, DENNY.
GOD, JUST TAKE ME HOME.
♪ I'M DRIFTING OUT OF THE SPACE ♪
♪ MY MIND IS MISPLACED HERE
♪ I'M RACING OUT OF MY CHEST
♪ LOOKING FOR REST HERE
♪ OH, I CAN'T FIND MY WAY
♪ CAN'T FIND MY PLACE HERE
♪ AND I'VE LOST ALL MY THOUGHTS LOST ALL MIND HERE ♪
ARCHIE.
I DON'T WANT TO TALK ABOUT IT.
I DO WANT TO TALK ABOUT IT.
LOOK, I KNOW THINGS AREN'T EXACTLY FANTASTIC RIGHT NOW.
I KNOW THAT I'VE MESSED UP,
AND I'VE BEEN BRINGING YOU LATE TO SCHOOL. OKAY?
I'M SORRY. I'M TRYING.
TRYING? GREAT! THAT MAKES TWO OF US.
I'M TRYING TO HELP YOU UNDERSTAND
THAT I'M GETTING KILLED OUT THERE.
CAN'T YOU SEE THAT?
PEOPLE AT THAT SCHOOL HATE ME, DENNY.
THEY DON'T HATE YOU, ARCHIE. YEAH, THEY DO. A LOT.
THOSE KIDS.
THEY HATE ME BECAUSE I'M SMARTER THAN THEM.
PEOPLE ARE ALWAYS GONNA BE AFRAID OF INTELLIGENCE, ARCHIE.
YEAH? WELL I GUESS IT WILL ALWAYS
SUCK TO BE ME THEN, HUH?
GET OUT--
DUDE, YOU'VE GOT TO LISTEN TO ME.
NO, I DON'T!
I DON'T HAVE TO DO ANYTHING YOU SAY, DENNY.
YOU'RE NOT DAD.
DAD LEFT. REMEMBER?
William: THAT LOOKS FAMILIAR.
I USED TO FIGHT LIKE THAT WITH MY BROTHER KEVIN.
YOUR FATHER, KEVIN, I SHOULD SAY.
HELLO, BOYS.
I SHOULD INTRODUCE MYSELF.
IT'S BEEN A WHILE SINCE WE'VE SEEN EACH OTHER.
I'M YOUR UNCLE WILLIAM.
UNCLE BILLY?
THAT'S ME.
NOW, WILL YOU PLEASE...
INVITE ME IN?
( William laughs )
SO, UH, NOT TO BE RUDE OR FORWARD OR ANYTHING,
BUT WHY EXACTLY ARE YOU--
AM I HERE?
TO CELEBRATE YOU, OF COURSE.
EXCUSE ME?
I RECEIVED YOUR GRADUATION INVITATION IN THE MAIL.
AND I REALIZED IT HAD BEEN FAR TOO LONG
SINCE I'D SEEN THIS FAMILY. AND I'VE BEEN OUT OF TOUCH.
YOU KNOW, I AM A MAN OF SCIENCE.
WELL, I DIDN'T KNOW THAT.
YOUR FATHER NEVER TOLD YOU ABOUT MY WORK.
MOM SAID YOU WERE AN OVERSEAS ENTREPRENEUR OR SOMETHING.
A GROUP OF VERY POWERFUL MEN OVERSEAS HIRED ME
FOR MY KNOWLEDGE ON A SUBJECT I KNOW VERY WELL.
GENETICS.
I LED A TEAM OF SCIENTISTS
AND WE DISCOVERED SOME VERY INTERESTING THINGS.
AH. LIKE WHAT?
HELLO, ARCHIE. FEELING BETTER.
DID YOUR FATHER EVER TELL YOU HOW WE USED TO
FIGHT THE OTHER BOYS IN THE STREETS?
Archie: NO.
WE DID.
KEVIN! WILLIAM! GET YOUR BUTTS IN GEAR!
I'M NOT TAKING YOU OUT ONCE IT'S DARK!
BOYS!
WHAT IS GOING ON UP HERE?
Kevin: GET UP, LITTLE GIRL. MY FRIENDS ARE--
WHAT DID I TELL YOU ABOUT LOCKING THIS DOOR?
GO, GO. GO, GO.
BOYS!
OPEN THIS DOOR!
KEVIN ARCHIBALD BURKE! YOU GET BACK HERE RIGHT NOW!
THAT'S IT! I AM CONFISCATING ALL THE CANDY!
I REALLY DON'T WANT DAD TO BE MAD AT US.
IF HE GETS MAD AT ANY ONE, HE'LL JUST GET MAD AT ME.
THEN WHEN HE GETS MAD AT YOU--
BILLY, BILLY, LEAVE THE OLD MAN TO ME.
I'LL TAKE CARE OF IT.
YOU KNOW I ALWAYS DO.
OKAY? OKAY.
KEVIN AND I WERE...
LOTS OF GOOD MEMORIES HERE.
YOU SAID YOU DISCOVERED SOMETHING?
I DON'T WANT TO LOSE YOU ON THE SCIENCE, YOUNG MAN.
WELL, I MEAN, ARCHIE CAN HANDLE IT.
HIS IQ IS 125.
AH 129.
SOME OTHER TIME PERHAPS.
SO I WAS SAYING DENNIS, I--
IT'S DENNY. IT'S DENNY NOW.
I HAVEN'T BEEN DENNIS SINCE THE 4TH GRADE.
ALL RIGHT THEN, DENNY.
I'M HERE BECAUSE I WAS GOING TO GIVE YOU
YOUR GRADUATION GIFT,
BUT, HOWEVER, I'M NOT SURE
IT'S APPROPRIATE NOW GIVEN...
NO, I-I UNDERSTAND.
IT'S A SHAME.
ARRANGEMENTS HAVE ALREADY BEEN MADE.
I USED MY OVERSEAS EARNINGS
TO PURCHASE A LARGE PROPERTY JUST OUTSIDE OF THE BARROWS.
THERE'S A MOUNTAIN OUT THERE
THAT I HEAR IS QUITE THE THRILL TO CLIMB.
YOU BOUGHT MOUNT DOMINIC?
FEW TIMES I TALKED TO YOUR FATHER
HE WAS VERY PROUD OF YOUR CLIMBING ACHIEVEMENTS.
AND I WAS GOING TO INVITE YOU OUT
TO CLIMB MOUNT DOMINIC THIS WEEKEND.
WE'LL BE THERE IN THE MORNING.
DENNY!
WE'LL BE THERE IN THE MORNING.
ME AND MY FRIENDS.
YOUR FRIENDS, TOO?
VERY WELL. IF YOU INSIST.
GRADUATE.
I'LL MEET YOU UP THERE TOMORROW EVENING
FOR A LITTLE POST-CLIMB CELEBRATION.
THANK YOU, UNCLE BILLY. THANK YOU.
SOMETIMES YOU NEED YOUR FAMILY TO HELP LIFT YOU UP.
AND I CAN'T THINK OF A BETTER WAY FOR YOU TO CELEBRATE
THIS PHASE OF YOUR LIFE THAN BY PROVING TO THE WORLD
YOUR SCARS HAVE HEALED.
TAKES A LOT OF STRENGTH TO WITHSTAND
IGNORANCE AND JEALOUSY.
PERHAPS SOMEDAY YOUR PHYSICAL ATTRIBUTES
WILL MATCH YOUR MENTAL ONES.
I WISH.
KEEP WORKING HARD, AND SOMETIMES WISHES COME TRUE.
WHAT ARE YOU DOING?
I'M TEXTING ADAM. HE'S GOT THE GEAR.
AND IF WE'RE GONNA CLIMB TOMORROW WE'RE GONNA NEED IT.
I'M STILL MAD AT YOU, BY THE WAY.
♪ I FOUND A ROCK IN MY LIFE
♪ BUILT IN OUR LOVE AND FOUND OUT IT'S A LIE ♪
♪ NO PART OF ME MUST DIE
♪ AND ON THIS ROCK
♪ I MUST CLIMB
♪ I FOUND A HOLE IN MY SOUL
♪ PLAYED ALTOGETHER AND FOUND OUT I AIN'T WHOLE ♪
♪ I'M BACK TO THE START
♪ ON KNEES, OPERATION CALLS ♪
( persistent knocking on the door )
LISA? HAVE YOU LOST YOUR FREAKING MIND?
WHAT?
ADAM SAYS YOU'RE CLIMBING MOUNT DOMINIC TOMORROW.
OH, YEAH.
"OH, YEAH?" ARE YOU KIDDING ME, BURKE?
YOU CAN BARELY STAND AS IT IS.
I'VE BEEN IN PHYSICAL THERAPY FOR MONTHS.
MY--MY THERAPIST CLEARED ME. I'M OKAY.
SO INSTEAD OF THE ONE IN FOUR CHANCE
YOU FALL TO YOUR DEATH, IT'S ALL ON THE ONE IN NINE NOW?
CONGRATULATIONS, DENNY.
WHATEVER, LISA.
I'M GOING WITH YOU. WHAT?
IF YOU'RE DETERMINED TO HURT YOURSELF,
THE LEAST YOU CAN DO IS HAVE SOMEBODY
WITH SOME MEDICAL TRAINING AROUND.
MEDICAL TRAINING?
HAVING A DOCTOR FOR A DAD AND TAKING A FIRST AID CLASS
HARDLY QUALIFIES YOU AS MEDICALLY TRAINED, LISA.
I'VE ALREADY CLEARED IT WITH MY PARENTS.
I'M GOING WITH YOU.
GOODNIGHT, DENNY.
( car engine starting )
I MISS YOU, DAD.
( radio chirps )
PC 40 HEADQUARTERS,
TELL THE MCKENZIES THERE'S NO ONE ON THE ROOF.
THEY'RE PROBABLY DRUNK AGAIN.
Woman on radio: 10-4.
SIR, THOSE READINGS YOU ASKED FOR.
SIR?
NEVER MIND. I SEE YOU'RE BUSY.
WHAT? NO CRUTCHES?
OH, THANKS FOR NOTICING.
HA, THAT'S WHAT'S UP, MAN.
HERE YOU ARE.
THANKS, BRO.
BY THE WAY, THANKS FOR THE LISA ALERT LAST NIGHT.
LOOK, I'M SORRY, MAN, SHE WAS ALREADY AT YOUR HOUSE
BEFORE I COULD CALL THE CODE RED.
AH, SPEAK OF THE DEVIL.
CAN I...CAN I GET SOME HELP?
Archie: ON IT.
THANKS, ARCH.
MAN, I'M GOING TO MISS THIS, YOU KNOW.
WHAT? MY LITTLE BROTHER HITTING ON MY EX-GIRLFRIEND?
NAH, NO.
YOU KNOW, HANGING OUT AFTER HIGH SCHOOL.
YOU KNOW, GOING CAMPING WITH MY FRIENDS ON A WHIM.
WATCHING YOUR LITTLE BROTHER COP A FEEL
ON YOUR EX-GIRLFRIEND.
ARCHIE. HANDS.
DUDE, I WAS THINKING ABOUT THIS LAST NIGHT.
THIS WILL PROBABLY BE THE LAST TIME
WE CAN ALL HANG OUT LIKE THIS.
YOU KNOW, NEXT MONTH I GO TO FLORIDA FOR TRAINING
AND IN THREE MONTHS YOU'RE GONNA BE IN SCHOOL.
AND TO TELL YOU THE TRUTH I'M NOT EVEN SURE
I WANT TO GO TO COLLEGE ANYMORE.
BUT WHAT ARE YOU GONNA DO IF YOU DON'T GO TO SCHOOL?
YEAH...
HEY. UM, INTERRUPTING A BROMANCE OR SOMETHING?
NO, NOT AT ALL. ARE YOU READY? YEAH.
OKAY, ARCHIE, GIVE ME THE BAG. YOU LOOK LIKE YOU'RE ABOUT TO FALL OVER.
NO, NO. I GOT IT. I GOT IT.
COME ON, MAN.
LET'S GO!
SOME HELP? NO, NO, NO, YOU GOT IT.
YOU'RE RIGHT THERE.
WHAT A CHAMP!
ALL RIGHT.
Lisa: WHAT ARE YOU DOING?
CALLING.
WHY DON'T YOU JUST HONK THE HORN?
HER STEP-DAD'LL GET PISSED.
( car horn ) DUDE!
WHAT? WE'RE BURNING DAYLIGHT HERE.
DON'T YOU WALK AWAY FROM ME, YOUNG LADY.
I WANT TO SEE MYSELF IN THAT LINOLEUM FLOOR BEFORE NOON.
YOU'RE A BEER AWAY FROM SLEEPING ON THE FLOOR, EARL.
NO-- YOU'LL LISTEN TO ME, GWENDOLYN.
I DON'T WORK HARD ALL DAY SO YOU CAN GO OUT WHORING AROUND
WITH YOUR LOUD FRIENDS.
STOP IT, YOU'RE HURTING ME.
WHAT ARE YOU GONNA DO? CALL THE COPS?
SHERIFF DESOTO'S A FRIEND OF MINE.
IF ANYTHING HAPPENS TO YOU I'LL BET HE'LL VOUCH FOR ME.
I SAID STOP IT!
OUCH! FUCK!
CAN WE GO? FAST-ISH!
( tires screech )
UH, YOU OKAY?
IT'S FINE.
HEY, YOU GUYS, WHY ALL THE LONG FACES?
COME ON, WE'RE OFFICIALLY ON VACATION.

MAN, I CAN'T BELIEVE UNCLE BILLY BOUGHT ALL OF THIS LAND,
AND HE ISN'T DOING ANYTHING WITH IT.
YEAH.
WE HAD SOME PRETTY GREAT MEMORIES, HUH?
WITH MOM AND DAD.
( sighs ) YEAH.
HEY, SO, UH,
IT WAS COOL SEEING YOU STAND UP TO YOUR OLD MAN BACK THERE.
STEP OLD MAN. YEAH, HE KIND OF SUCKS.
YEAH, MORE THAN KIND OF. DUDE, BUT YOU...YOU WERE COOL,
YOU WERE LIKE...LIKE WHAM, YOU KNOW.
LIKE WONDER WOMAN COOL.
YEAH?
HEY.
UM, ARE WE ALL ALONE OUT HERE?
I THINK SO. I DON'T THINK ANYONE LIVES OUT HERE FOR MILES.
WHY?
I DON'T KNOW. JUST... I JUST GOT THIS WEIRD FEELING
LIKE WE'RE BEING WATCHED OR SOMETHING.
IT'S PROBABLY NOTHING.
I CAN HOLD YOUR HAND IF YOU'RE SCARED.
GUYS, GUYS, GUYS, I THINK WE'RE FORGETTING.
WE'RE ABOUT TO GRADUATE SOON.
BESIDES ARCHIE, BUT STILL.
YOU KNOW, AT THIS MOMENT WE SHOULD HAVE NO STRESS,
NOT A CARE IN THE WORLD.
NO ONE CAN STOP US.
LET'S JUST GO CONQUER THE MOUNTAIN.
I LIKE WHERE YOUR HEAD'S AT.
WHAT HAVE WE GOT TO BE SCARED OF? LET'S DO THIS THING.
THAT'S A BIG ASS MOUNTAIN.
ARCHIE, LANGUAGE.
OKAY.
STILL A BIG ASS MOUNTAIN.
SO HOW'S YOUR FACE?
MY LIP IS FINE.
( imitating Archie ) "MY LIP IS FINE."
JUST LOOK AT THOSE--
HEY, YOU GOT A SEC?
SURE.
HOW'S YOUR LEG?
SHAKY. YEAH?
I'M SUPPOSED TO BE READY FOR THIS,
BUT I DON'T KNOW. NO, YOU'LL BE GREAT.
YEAH, WELL,
WHY IS THE MOUNTAIN THERE?
TO BE CONQUERED.
YOU GUYS HAVE SAID THAT LIKE SIX TIMES TODAY.
IT'S WHAT MY DAD ALWAYS USED TO SAY
WHEN HE TAUGHT ME TO CLIMB.
OH.
SO,
I WAS WONDERING,
SINCE I MIGHT NOT COME BACK
FROM THIS THING
WHICH IS WHAT EVERYONE WANTS TO HEAR.
WHY DID WE BREAK UP?
DENNY, I HAD MY REASONS.
WHICH WERE?
YOU KNOW, I DON'T THINK THIS IS THE BEST TIME
TO BE TALKING ABOUT THIS. YOU SHOULD BE GETTING READY--
NO, I THINK THIS IS A PERFECTLY GOOD TIME ACTUALLY.
IF YOU WANT TO TALK,
LET'S TALK ABOUT THAT BRACE ON YOUR LEG
AND HOW IT GOT THERE IN THE FIRST PLACE.
DENNY, WE DATED FOR SIX MONTHS.
YOU WOULDN'T TELL ME ANYTHING.
I-I MEAN, I KNOW IT BOTHERS YOU, OKAY,
SO I DIDN'T PRESS IT, BUT--
OH...
I HAD MY REASONS.
CUTE.
WAIT.
WHAT?
YOU KNOW HORSESHOE CANYON?
WHERE YOU USED TO CLIMB? RIGHT.
MY DAD AND I WERE CLIMBING TOGETHER THERE
FOR MY BIRTHDAY.
WE WERE HALF WAY UP THE FACE
AND THERE WAS THIS BIG EXPLOSION.
WHAT?
WE FELL.
AND WHEN THE SMOKE CLEARED I WAS
REALLY HURT BAD,
LIKE SPINAL DAMAGE.
AND MY DAD WAS...WAS FINE,
FOR A WHILE.
I HAD TO GET A LOT OF SURGERIES.
FOR THE FIRST COUPLE OF MONTHS
MY MOM AND ARCHIE ALWAYS TOOK ME IN.
MY DAD HAD SOMETHING TO WORK ON.
SOMETHING TO MAKE ME BETTER.
BUT ONE DAY WE JUST CAME FROM THE HOSPITAL,
AND DAD HAD CLEARED OUT.
NO NOTE, NO PHONE CALL, NO TEXT MESSAGE.
NOTHING. JUST GONE.
DENNY, I'M SO SORRY.
BUT, I DIDN'T WANT TO TELL YOU BECAUSE
I DIDN'T WANT MY DAD LEAVING TO SCREW UP OUR RELATIONSHIP.
SO, I'M GONNA GO CLIMB THIS MOUNTAIN,
AND I MIGHT NOT COME BACK.
WHY DID WE BREAK UP?
I'LL TELL YOU WHAT,
COME BACK DOWN THE MOUNTAIN IN ONE PIECE
AND I'LL TELL YOU.
REALLY?
AFTER ALL THAT, THAT'S WHAT I GET?
I NEED TO GIVE YOU A GOOD REASON TO COME BACK DOWN.
YOU PROMISE?
CROSS MY HEART AND HOPE TO FLY.
HOPE TO DIE.
WHO HOPES FOR THAT?
THAT'S A PRETTY LONG FIRST PITCH.
OH, WE'VE DEFINITELY CLIMBED HIGHER THAN THAT BEFORE.
YEAH. YOU THINK YOU'D LIKE TO TAKE IT?
YEAH, IT'S A LITTLE STIFF WITHOUT THE BRACE
BUT I'M SURE I'LL BE FINE.
OKAY, BELAY ON, DUDE. YOU READY?
YUP. ALL RIGHT, LET'S GET IT.
HEY, DENNY, DON'T FALL.
DON'T WORRY I WON'T. MOM.
YOU GOT IT.
ALL RIGHT. ALL RIGHT.
YOU GOOD? UH-HUH.
Adam: ALL RIGHT, YOU GOT IT, MAN.
WHOO!
OH!
AAH!
THANK YOU.
NO PROBLEM.
( upbeat song playing )
HEY, YO, KEEP THAT SMILE UP.
I CAN'T BELIEVE YOU BROUGHT THESE ALL THE WAY UP HERE.
THEY'RE YOUR FAVORITE, MAN. WE HAVE TO CELEBRATE.
WHERE DID YOU SAY THE GIRLS WERE PICKING US UP AGAIN?
WELL, WE'RE GOING TO GO OVER THIS RIDGE
AND MEET THEM AT A SMALL ROAD THAT'S UP THERE.
HOW'S YOUR LEG FEELING? PRETTY STIFF.
I DO NOT SAVOR THE IDEA OF WALKING DOWN THE MOUNTAIN.
WELL, THAT'S WHY WE GOT A RIDE.
I'M GONNA MISS YOU NEXT YEAR, MAN.
YEAH, WHAT WERE YOU SAYING ABOUT NOT GOING TO SCHOOL?
I DON'T KNOW. I...
I ALWAYS HATE THE THOUGHT OF BEING AWAY FROM YOU GUYS.
YEAH. IT STINKS YOU CAN'T BE IN TWO PLACES AT ONCE.
I KNOW. WEAK.
Adam: IS THAT A LAKE?
YEAH. IT'S OVER BY THAT DAM MY UNCLE BILLY OWNS.
EVERYTHING'S SET?
DO I LOOK LIKE ONE OF YOUR LAB GEEKS?
NO, YOU LOOK LIKE SOMEONE WHO'S GOT A JOB TO DO.
AND RIGHT NOW THAT JOB'S TO MAKE SURE THAT SUBJECT IS IN PLACE.
NOW, IS EVERYTHING SET?
Adam: YOU DON'T KNOW THAT GUY VERY WELL, DO YOU?
NO.
UNCLE BILLY WASN'T EXACTLY MY DAD'S FAVORITE PERSON.
SO HE WASN'T REALLY WELCOMED.
I HONESTLY FORGOT HE EXISTED UNTIL THE OTHER DAY.
THANKS FOR DOING THIS WITH ME, ADAM.
ONLY ONE THING LEFT TO DO.
WHAT'S THAT?
LET'S GO CONQUER THAT MOUNTAIN.
WHAT THE HECK IS THAT?
FULL BODY SCAN INITIATED.
( whirring, beeping )
SOME HELP WOULD BE NICE.
Man: SIR, WE HAVE A POSITIVE SCAN.
THE BOY'S ACTIVATED THE ACCELERATOR.
SIR.
WHERE ARE YOU GOING?
ORDERS. BUT WHAT IF I NEED HELP?
EVERYBODY'S DOWN IN THE OTHER LAB.
IF THE MACHINE GOES OFF, IT COULD...
( whirring )
ARE THE POWER SAFEGUARDS STILL IN PLACE?
( rumbling )
UH-OH.
( tremoring ) WHOA.
WHOA. HEY!
LISA!
( screams )
DENNY.
AAH!
DENNY!
GWEN! GWEN, WAKE UP!
MY SEATBELT, IT'S STUCK! I CAN'T GET IT UNDONE!
PULL!
UGH!
DENNY IS NOT GONNA BE HAPPY ABOUT THIS.
WHAT JUST HAPPENED?
SOMETHING BIG LIKE AN EARTHQUAKE MAYBE.
IT SEEMED LIKE SOMETHING BIGGER.
( footsteps approaching )
Adam: GUYS.
WHAT HAPPENED TO YOU?
I JUST RAN DOWN.
ADAM?
I WASN'T FAST ENOUGH.
DENNY! DENNY! DENNY! DENNY! DENNY! DENNY!
HE WON'T WAKE UP.
WE NEED TO GET HIM TO A HOSPITAL AS QUICK AS POSSIBLE.
BUT WE'RE MILES AWAY FROM EVERYWHERE.
I'LL CALL MY DAD. WE'LL GET AN AIRLIFT.
I DON'T HAVE ANY SERVICE. ANYBODY ELSE?
I LEFT MY PHONE IN THE CAR.
OKAY, WE'RE GONNA HAVE TO CARRY HIM OUT.
UH, WE'RE GONNA HAVE TO BUILD A STRETCHER.
I NEED TO STOP THIS BLEEDING.
Archie: I COULDN'T STOP THE BLEEDING.
I HAVEN'T STUDIED THAT YET. I KNOW ABOUT QUANTUM MECHANICS.
ARCHIE, ARCHIE, YOU NEED TO CALM DOWN, OKAY?
YOUR BROTHER...
DENNY NEEDS YOU RIGHT NOW TO BE STRONG.
SO TAKE A DEEP BREATH, AND CALM DOWN, OKAY?
I NEED--I NEED YOU TO HELP ME MAKE SOME TOURNIQUETS.
ADAM AND ARCHIE TAKE DOWN THE TENT
AND WE'LL MAKE A STRETCHER OUT OF THE POLES.
GO!
DON'T YOU DIE ON ME, BURKE.
ARCHIE, WHAT ARE YOU-- HOW ARE YOU DO--
WHAT'S GOING ON?
UNCLE BILLY?
WHAT HAPPENED TO DENNY?
HE WAS CLIMBING AND HE FELL.
WE NEED TO GET HIM TO MY COMPOUND QUICKLY.
WE CAN TRANSPORT HIM TO A HOSPITAL FROM THERE.
TIMOTHY, COME HELP THE CHILDREN.
MY DRIVER. TIMOTHY?
MY EYESIGHT DOESN'T ALLOW ME TO DRIVE AT NIGHT.
DOOR.
ARE WE ALL GONNA TO FIT BACK THERE?
YOU STAY HERE, WE'LL TAKE DENNY, CALL FOR AN AIRLIFT.
I'LL HAVE TIMOTHY COME BACK AND PICK YOU UP.
NO! I'M GOING WITH HIM!
LISA, DENNY WILL BE FINE.
SOMEONE NEEDS TO BE THERE TO KEEP PRESSURE
ON HIS WOUNDS IN CASE HE--
ARCHIE SHOULD GO, HE'S FAMILY.
HEY!
CAN WE STOP ARGUING ABOUT THIS?
IN CASES OF MASSIVE TRAUMA,
THE FIRST FEW MINUTES ARE THE MOST IMPORTANT.
I'LL TAKE CARE OF HIM, ARCH. YOU BETTER.
( engine starts )
HEY, WHERE ARE YOU GOING?
TO WORK ON DENNY'S CAR.
I'M NOT GONNA SIT HERE AND WAIT AROUND
FOR TIM THE DRIVER MAN TO COME GET US.
HOW MUCH FURTHER?
NOT LONG, DEAR.
WHAT IS THIS PLACE?
IS IT A GOOD IDEA TO MOVE HIM?
WE KEEP A SMALL MEDICAL FACILITY HERE FOR MY STAFF.
MY MEN WILL BE RIGHT OUT TO COLLECT HIM.
ARE THEY EVEN DOCTORS? HELLO?
YOU ARE EXHIBITING SIGNS OF SHOCK MISS THOMPSON.
I'D LIKE TO RUN SOME TESTS ON YOU, MAKE SURE...
WHAT? NO! NO! DENNY! LET GO! STOP!
WE'LL LOOK AFTER DENNY, HE'S GONNA BE FINE.
ALL RIGHT, WE'RE HOT.
EXPOSURE TO ZERO ENERGY WAS ROUGHLY HALF AN HOUR AGO.
BOSS WANTS FULL SCANS ON ALL WAVELENGTHS AND AN M.R.I.
WE NEED TO FIND OUT WHAT'S GOING ON INSIDE THIS KID.
TAKE THAT STICK OUT OF HIM.
DOCTOR, SOMETHING IS HAPPENING.
HE'S SPIKING.
GIVE ME SOME EPINEPHRINE
WHAT HAPPENED?
WHERE AM I?
INTERESTING!
Man: SHE'S REGAINING CONSCIOUSNESS.
WHERE AM I?
LET'S GET HER BACK INTO IT NOW.
YOU'RE FINE, DEAR. NO! WHERE'S DENNY? WHERE AM I?
WE'RE JUST RUNNING SOME TESTS. THERE WAS AN ACCIDENT.
I SAID I WANT HER BACK IN THERE, NOW!
WHERE ARE THEY? WHERE'S DENNY?
WHERE'S DENNY?
JUST GO TO SLEEP NOW, DEAR.
( door opens )
Archie: YOU THINK THEY'RE GONNA BE ALL RIGHT?
Gwen: WHAT?
THAT WOOD IN HIS CHEST PROBABLY STOPPED
SOMETHING IMPORTANT FROM COMING OUT.
HE'LL BE ALL RIGHT, RIGHT?
SURE, ARCHIE. NO.
GWEN. WHAT GOOD IS LYING TO HIM?
HE'S SMARTER THAN YOU AND ME COMBINED, ADAM.
HE CAN HANDLE THE TRUTH.
OH! WE NEED TO ACCEPT THE FACT
THAT DENNY MIGHT BE-- DEAD?
Archie: TIMOTHY.
IS DENNY-- HE'S STABLE.
AND I'M HERE TO TAKE YOU TO YOUR UNCLE.
THAT'S LIKE THE SECOND TIME YOU SNUCK UP ON US.
I AM ALMOST DONE, WE'LL FOLLOW YOU.
YEAH, I'D MUCH RATHER YOU RIDE WITH ME.
AND I'D MUCH RATHER WE GET THIS HEAP RUNNING INTO THE SHOP
INSTEAD OF TOWING IT BACK TO CIVILIZATION.
PLEASE, GET IN THE CAR, CHILDREN.
I WON'T ASK NICELY AGAIN.
AND WHAT IF WE DON'T WANT TO?
YOU WON'T LIKE ME VERY MUCH BY THE TIME I'M DONE.
I DON'T LIKE YOU VERY MUCH NOW.
GUYS, CAN WE JUST GET IN THE CAR.
I WANT TO SEE...DENNY.
ARCHIE! WHY'D YOU DO THAT?
YOU GUYS GOING TO COME WILLINGLY?
OR YOU HAVE TO MAKE THIS A WHOLE THING?
OH, MISTER, YOU JUST MADE A MISTAKE.
GWEN, GO!
OH! AH!
AH!
DON'T WORRY, YOU AND YOUR UGLY LITTLE GIRLFRIEND
ARE GONNA BE JUST FINE.
AH!
( car starts )
THIS IS FINCH TO BASE. I'VE LOST--
RIGHT.
AH! WELL, KID.
I HOPE YOU LIKE THE HEIGHT.
AH! OH!
JEEZ YOU'RE HEAVIER THAN YOU LOOK.
HEY! HEY! WHAT ARE YOU DOING?
UH, I WAS, UH, LOOKING FOR THE BATHROOM?
HEY, HEY THE CANON IS LOOSE. HEY! HEY!
( alarm goes off )
AH!
( tires screeching )
DENNY, GET IN!
( tires screeching )
THIS HAD BETTER BE IMPORTANT, DOCTOR.
IF YOU HAVEN'T HEARD THE SECURITY ALARMS,
WE'RE HAVING QUITE THE HOUR.
THIS IS GOOD. THIS IS BETTER THAN GOOD.
WE DID IT. WE DID WHAT?
WELL, UH, AS WE SAW IN OUR EARLIER EXPERIMENTS
THE HUMAN BODY CAN'T TAKE A DIRECT EXPOSURE
TO ZERO ENERGY.
IT'S JUST NOT EQUIPPED. I MEAN, IT CAN CAUSE LIFELONG ISSUES--
I KNOW, DOCTOR, I WAS THERE THE FIRST TIME.
GET TO THE POINT.
WELL, DENNY'S D.N.A. IS THE CLOSEST WE COULD GET
TO POSTMAN ZERO'S GENETIC CODE.
BUT SOMEHOW THE BOY ABSORBED THE ENERGY AND EXPELLED IT,
HITTING HIS FRIENDS.
SO WE WERE TESTING THIS GIRL TO SEE IF WE COULD EXTRACT
THAT ALTERED ENERGY.
AND?
WELL IT WAS TOTALLY BY ACCIDENT,
BUT WE GOT SOMETHING A LOT BETTER.
LET ME SHOW YOU.
WHAT AM I LOOKING AT?
OKAY, RIGHT NOW, WE'RE SENDING SMALL ELECTRICAL IMPULSES
TO HER PRIMARY MOTOR CORTEX.
WE ARE CAUSING HER TO MOVE.
BUT, WITH THE RIGHT AMOUNT OF ELECTRICITY...
IS SHE?
THAT'S RIGHT, MR. BURKE,
BECAUSE OF HER EXPOSURE TO ZERO ENERGY
THIS GIRL CAN FLY.
ARE THEY STILL FOLLOWING US?
NAH, I THINK WE'RE CLEAR. GOOD.
DON'T YOU EVER FALL OFF THE MOUNTAIN AGAIN. HEY. HEY.
YOU SCARED THE CRAP OUT OF US.
AND HOW ARE YOU OKAY RIGHT NOW?
I SAW YOU DENNY. YOU LOOKED DEAD.
YOU SHOULD BE DEAD.
I DON'T KNOW.
THERE WAS A MACHINE ON THE MOUNTAIN TOP.
IT SHOT A BEAM OF LIGHT INTO ME,
AND THEN I WOKE UP BACK THERE FINE.
I...I MEAN, LOOK AT MY LEG.
IT'S...IT'S COMPLETELY HEALED.
I WAS IN PHYSICAL THERAPY FOR OVER A YEAR,
AND I JUST WOKE UP BACK THERE TOTALLY WHOLE.
AND YOU THINK THIS MACHINE DID THAT TO YOU?
OR THOSE GUYS DID.
WE'VE GOT TO CALL THE POLICE OR SOMETHING.
DO YOU HAVE A PHONE? OW!
WHAT? THE STUPID GLOVE BOX HAS A...
WHAT DID THEY DO TO ME?
AH, GWEN.
WHERE DID YOU SAY YOU GOT THIS CAR?
WHERE IS EVERYBODY ELSE?
WE NEED TO TALK ABOUT YOUR UNCLE, DENNY.
WE'RE FOLLOWING THEM DISCREETLY?
THEY DON'T EVEN KNOW WE'RE THERE.
PATCH IN TO THE CAR'S BLUETOOTH,
I WANT TO HEAR THEIR CONVERSATION.
SIR, SHOULD WE HAVE LET THE CANDIDATE GO?
THERE IS A METHOD TO MY MADNESS.
WHERE'S MR. FINCH?
STILL NOT BACK, SIR.
I WAS GONNA SEND HIM A RIDE.
DON'T BOTHER.
I DON'T REWARD INCOMPETENCE.
YES, SIR.
WHAT THE HELL ARE THEY FEEDING YOU, KID?
ROCKS?
COME OUT NOW AND I WON'T HURT YOU.
ANYMORE.
I GOT TO TELL YOU I COULD USE YOUR HELP
CARRYING YOUR LITTLE FRIEND HERE.
HOW DO I KNOW YOU JUST WON'T KILL US?
THINK ABOUT IT, GENIUS.
WOULD I HAVE CARRIED THIS KID THIS FAR
IF MY ORDERS WERE TO KILL YOU?
NO, I WAS SENT TO RETRIEVE YOU.
RETRIEVE US? FOR WHAT?
I DON'T KNOW.
MAYBE FOR THAT LITTLE TRICK YOU PULLED BACK THERE?
I MEAN, POOF. YOU DISAPPEARED.
I WAS ON TOP OF YOU AND THEN YOU WERE NOTHING BUT AIR.
HOW DID YOU DO THAT?
WHAT DID YOU DO WITH DENNY?
BESIDES FROM BEING NAMED DENNY, HE'S JUST FINE.
TOOK HIM TO BASE.
SO, I GUESS YOU KNOW HOW I DID THAT THEN.
THAT...TELEPORTING THING?
NO.
HELL, SON, WE'RE THE ONES THAT GAVE YOU THAT ABILITY.
YOU KNOW, WE THOUGHT DENNY WAS THE KEY.
BUT, MAYBE IT'S YOU.
YOU KNOW, WE CAN TEACH YOU HOW TO CONTROL IT.
HONE IT,
AND THEN WHEN YOUR POWER'S AT ITS GREATEST,
USE IT FOR WHAT WE NEED.
HEY. I THINK I GOT THE HANG OF IT.
AH! HA, HA, TWO POINTS.
OKAY.
COME ON, KID.
YOU WOULDN'T SHOOT AN UNARMED MAN, RIGHT?
I MEAN, LET'S FACE IT, YOU DON'T HAVE THE--
BALLS.
NOW THAT'S FOR CALLING HER UGLY.
( tosses gun )
Denny: I CAN'T BELIEVE THAT.
I DO. YOUR UNCLE SENT SOME GUY OUT TO KIDNAP US.
WHO KNOWS WHAT HE'S DOING TO YOUR BROTHER, OR LISA.
THINK ABOUT IT.
HE GIVES YOU THIS GRADUATION PRESENT,
AND THEN SENDS YOU OUT INTO THE MIDDLE OF NOWHERE.
AND THEN ZAPS YOU WITH SOME MACHINE
THAT DOES GOD KNOWS WHAT TO YOU.
HE KNEW YOU GUYS WOULD BE COMING ALONG. I TOLD HIM.
WHY WOULD HE LET ME BRING MY FRIENDS IF I WAS THE EXPERIMENT?
WOULDN'T HE WANT TO KEEP THAT A SECRET OR SOMETHING?
HEY, LOOK OVER THERE.
Gwen: ARE YOU SURE ABOUT THIS?
GWEN, WE'VE GOT TO CALL THE POLICE.
I KNOW, BUT HERE?
IT'S THE ONLY PLACE FOR MILES.
YEAH, JUST HURRY.
OKAY.
♪ I'VE GOT SIGNS AND SIGNIFIERS ♪
♪ GOSSIPERS AND LIARS
♪ TWIST ME EVERY WAY THEY WANNA GO ♪
HEY, YOU CAN'T BE IN HERE.
I NEED TO USE YOUR PHONE.
THE WHAT? THE PHONE.
KID, GET OUT OF HERE.
DENNY, LET'S GO.
IT'S AN EMERGENCY.
YOU CAN USE THE PHONE IN MY TRUCK.
EARL!
YOU STOLE MY STEP-DAUGHTER, AND YOU COME TO MY BAR.
HELL, I HAD HALF A CADDY OUT LOOKING FOR YOU, LITTLE MORONS.
EARL, STOP IT!
SHERIFF DESOTO WAS GOING TO GET OUT
HIS DAMN SEARCH CHOPPER TO LOOK FOR YOU GUYS.
WE WENT CAMPING.
WELL, I HOPE YOU HAD A GOOD TIME, BOY,
BECAUSE YOU'RE GOING TO CAMP YOUR ASS
IN A HOLDING CELL FOR A WEEK.
MAYBE A MONTH IF ED CAN SWING IT.
LET GO OF HIM. YOU'RE CHOKING HIM.
MISSY, YOU JUST WAIT TILL I GET YOU HOME.
YOU'RE NOT GONNA HAVE IT EASY.
YOU'RE HAVING TROUBLE BREATHING, BASTARD?
WELL, YOU SHOULD HAVE THOUGHT OF THAT
BEFORE YOU STOLE MY LITTLE GIRL.
WHAT THE HELL IS THAT?
HEY, THAT'S SORT OF NICE.
WHERE'D YOU GET THIS? DID YOU STEAL IT, TOO?
EARL HARLAND, YOU PUT HIM DOWN, RIGHT NOW!
YEAH? WHAT ARE YOU GOING TO DO ABOUT IT?
OR I'LL PUT YOU DOWN LIKE THE RABID DOG THAT YOU ARE.
WAIT! YOU'RE ON FIRE.
LET GO OF HIM.
I'LL GIVE YOU TO THE COUNT OF THREE.
ONE. GWEN. GWEN.
TWO. STOP. STOP.
THREE!
WHAT DID I DO? WHAT DID I JUST DO?
DENNY, WHAT ARE WE GOING TO DO?
I CAN'T GO BACK IN THERE. I JUST SET HIM ON FIRE.
WE'LL GO TO JAIL. I DON'T KNOW.
IF WE DON'T DO SOMETHING, HE'S GONNA DIE.
NO, NO. NO, NO, NO, NO. I... I DIDN'T MEAN TO DO IT.
I JUST SAW HIM THREATENING YOU AND...
AND THEN MY HANDS THEY STARTED BURNING.
GWEN, STOP.
CALM DOWN.
I HAVE AN IDEA.
WHAT'S GOING ON OUT HERE?
GOOD LORD, IS THAT EARL?
UNLESS YOU WANT TO END UP LIKE HIM,
GET INSIDE, AND CALL AN AMBULANCE RIGHT NOW!
OKAY, MISS, TAKE IT EASY.
NOTHING'S THE MATTER, EVERYTHING'S COOL.
WE ONLY HAVE 10 MINUTES UNTIL THE COPS GET HERE.
WHATEVER YOU'RE GOING TO DO, DO IT FAST.
MR. HARLAND,
THIS MIGHT HURT.
DENNY.
I'M OKAY.
SO IS HE.
( Earl coughing )
WE GOT TO GO. HELP ME UP.
ARE YOU OKAY? YEAH, I'M...
IF YOU EVER,
EVER THINK ABOUT TOUCHING ME
OR MY MOTHER AGAIN, REMEMBER WHAT JUST HAPPENED.
REMEMBER WHAT I CAN DO TO YOU.
( Earl coughs )
Adam: MORNING, LITTLE DUDE.
WHAT HAPPENED?
WELL, TIMMY, THE DRIVER MAN,
HIT YOU WITH SOME SORT OF TRANQUILIZER.
THEN DRAGGED YOU DOWN THE MOUNTAIN.
I FOLLOWED YOU GUYS, KICKED HIS ASS,
AND HERE WE ARE.
HOW YOU FEELING?
SORE. YEAH.
HARD TO THINK.
WHERE'S HERE?
WELL, I TOOK YOU TO THE ONE PLACE
I KNEW THEY WANTED TO GO.
WHERE THEY TOOK LISA AND DENNY.
UNCLE BILLY SAID THEY WERE GOING TO TAKE DENNY TO A HOSPITAL.
YEAH, WELL, TIM THE DRIVER SAID OTHERWISE.
SOME PRETTY WEIRD STUFF HAPPENED WHILE YOU WERE ASLEEP.
LIKE WHAT?
LIKE...
HOW DID YOU?
I DON'T KNOW HOW IT WORKS,
AND I DON'T KNOW HOW IT HAPPENED,
BUT I CAN DO THIS.
Archie: OH! HEY.
ARCHIE, DO YOU REMEMBER THAT LIGHT
THAT WAS ON TOP OF THE MOUNTAIN?
I THINK... I THINK IT DID SOMETHING TO US.
I THINK IT CHANGED US.
EINSTEIN THEORIZED THAT TELEPORTATION
WAS TIED TO QUANTUM ENTANGLEMENT,
BUT NOTHING LIKE YOU'RE DOING.
HOW DO YOU FEEL WHEN YOU TELEPORT?
DO YOU FEEL DIFFERENT EVERY TIME?
WELL, I FEEL FINE. I FEEL GREAT!
YOU KNOW, I JUST...I JUST THINK ABOUT
WHERE I WANT TO GO AND I FOCUS AND THEN...
OH.
I'M THERE.
AMAZING!
HERE YOU TRY.
( belches )
NOT QUITE THE SAME THING.
UH. I DON'T KNOW WHAT THEY DID TO US.
AND ALL CLUES POINT TO THESE GUYS.
LET'S GO DO SOME BREAKING AND ENTERING.
PULL OVER.
WHAT? WHY?
CAN YOU JUST PULL OVER? PLEASE.
OKAY.
Denny: EVERYTHING OKAY?
I JUST NEARLY KILLED MY STEP-DAD,
DO YOU THINK I'M OKAY?
I JUST NEED A MINUTE.
THINGS WERE HAPPENING REALLY, REALLY FAST BACK THERE AND...
I KNOW THIS MIGHT SOUND WEIRD,
BUT COULD YOU HOLD ME?
YEAH, OKAY.
EARL'S GONNA BE OKAY, GWEN.
I FIXED HIM,
LIKE YOU FIX CARS.
PEOPLE AREN'T CARS, DENNY.
I JUST...
I JUST SHOT FLAMES FROM MY HANDS.
YOU JUST SAVED A MAN'S LIFE BY CONCENTRATING.
WHO ARE WE?
WHAT HAVE WE BECOME?
WHAT YOU ARE, SWEETIE,
IS IN A WHOLE LOT OF TROUBLE.
AND DON'T EVEN THINK ABOUT USING
THAT FLAME-ON STUFF ON US.
LET'S GO.
WHO ARE YOU GUYS, ANYWAY?
HUH?
TELL ME.
SIR, THEY ARE CONTAINED.
HEADING TOWARDS YOU NOW.
WHO'S THAT YOU'RE TALKING TO, HUH?
IS THAT MY UNCLE?
TELL ME!
SAY GOOD NIGHT, KIDDO.
( air whooshes )
LISA.
GWEN.
YOU'RE AWAKE.
WHAT DID YOU DO TO HER?
JUST RAN SOME TESTS.
I SWEAR, IF YOU HURT HER IN ANY WAY
I'M GONNA-- YOU'LL WHAT?
YOU'LL HEALED ME!
WE WERE UNSURE WHAT THE POSTMAN ENERGY
WOULD DO TO YOUR BODY.
AND AFTER YOUR LITTLE OUTBURST IN THE OPERATING ROOM
I DECIDED TO GIVE YOU SOME DISTANCE.
AND TO MAKE SURE YOU WEREN'T GOING TO BE
LIKE YOUR FATHER AND...
KA-BOOM!
MY FATHER?
OH.
HE NEVER TOLD YOU WHAT HAPPENED?
HOW HE CRIPPLED YOU?
HIS OWN SON.
DAD!
POSTMAN ZERO,
ONE IN 25 BILLION.
YOUR FATHER IS A...
TRUE ANOMALY.
YOUR FATHER POSSESSED
GREAT POWER.
I WAS THERE THE FIRST TIME IT MANIFESTED.
WAIT, WHAT WAS THAT?
OH, MAYBE...
MAYBE IT WAS THE BOOGEYMAN.
OOH!
KEVIN, I'M SERIOUS, I HEARD SOMETHING.
OH, COME ON, IT'S PROBABLY SOME KID JUST PLAYING PRANKS.
IT'S HALLOWEEN, YOU'RE JUST SPOOKING YOURSELF.
YOU SURE? SURE, I'M SURE.
AND, HEY, IF IT WAS THE BOOGEYMAN, LET HIM COME.
I'LL ALWAYS PROTECT YOU, LITTLE BROTHER.
William: KEVIN!
KEVIN'S BODY DIDN'T KNOW WHAT TO DO
WITH THE ZERO ENERGY SO IT
VIOLENTLY EXPELLED IT.
YOUR FATHER VERY NEARLY
KILLED A YOUNG BOY THAT NIGHT.
AAH!
I WANTED TO EXPERIMENT ON HIM.
SEE HOW FAR THESE ABILITIES COULD GO.
HE REFUSED.
HE WOULD HIDE HIS TALENTS,
NO MATTER THE COST.
SO I TRAVELLED THE WORLD,
RECRUITING LIKE-MINDED INDIVIDUALS TO HELP ME.
AND WE BEGAN A WORLDWIDE HUNT
FOR POTENTIAL POSTMAN CANDIDATES.
WE DRAINED THE GENE POOL OF THOSE
WHO DID NOT MATCH OUR NEEDS.
AND THEN,
I HEARD ABOUT YOUR ACCIDENT.
I REACHED OUT TO KEVIN,
OFFERED HELP, GUIDANCE.
HE TOOK ME AT MY WORD.
THE FOOL.
WE BUILT THIS TO CONTAIN KEVIN'S ENERGIES
IN HOPE THAT WE MIGHT BE ABLE TO REPLICATE IT
IN SOMEONE ELSE.
UNFORTUNATELY, BECAUSE OF MY OWN
PROBLEMS
IT WAS NOT ME.
IT WAS ME.
WHAT NONE OF US COULD'VE ANTICIPATED
WAS THAT THE ZERO ENERGY
FILTERED THROUGH YOU
AND INTO YOUR FRIENDS,
GIVING EACH ONE OF THEM
DIFFERENT ABILITIES.
SO...SO WHAT YOU'RE SAYING IS YOU ALL TURNED ME
AND MY FRIENDS INTO SUPER PEOPLE?
NOT FOR VERY LONG.
WITH THE ADVANCEMENTS THAT WE'VE MADE
IN STUDYING YOU AND YOUR FRIENDS
AS WELL AS DEVELOPING MY OWN COCKTAIL,
I CAN SIPHON
THE ZERO ENERGY INTO ME.
COCKTAIL?
MY OWN SPECIAL MIX.
IT ALLOWS MY BODY TO PROCESS THE ZERO ENERGY.
AND THEN WHAT? RULE THE WORLD?
NO.
NOTHING SO SILLY.
IF AMERICA IS TO HAVE POSTHUMANS,
SO SHOULD ANY COUNTRY
WHO WANTS TO DEFEND THEMSELVES.
SO YOU'RE GONNA START A SUPER POWER COLD WAR
AND SELL YOURSELF TO THE HIGHEST BIDDER?
( slow clapping )
AND HERE I THOUGHT ARCHIE WAS THE SMART ONE.
IT ALL JUST COMES DOWN TO MONEY.
YOU'RE JUST A SIMPLE CONMAN.
BUT I'LL BE AN EXCEPTIONALLY RICH,
INTELLIGENT,
AND DANGEROUS CONMAN, DENNY.
THE MAN I'VE STRIVED TO BE.
UNFORTUNATELY, WE'RE NOT ENTIRELY SURE
WHAT THE TRANSFERENCE PROCESS
WILL DO TO YOU TEENAGERS.
DEATH IS A POSSIBILITY.
START WITH THE CHEERLEADER.
WAIT! NO!
( machine whirring )
LISA!
WORKING.
GIVE ME MORE.
Man: SIR, IF WE TURN UP THE MACHINE, WE MIGHT KILL HER.
THE MAN ASKED FOR MORE.
OKAY.
YOU CAN'T ALWAYS DO WHAT YOU WANT.
FIND HIM!
WHAT? I SAW THIS ON YOUTUBE.
ARCHIE, TURN OFF THE MACHINE.
STAY AWAY FROM THE CONTROL PANEL, YOUNG MAN.
I THINK I KILLED THE OFF SWITCH WHEN I HIT THAT GUY.
GET LISA FREE.
( machine whirring slows )
( alarm wailing )
THAT'S REALLY...
AH!
OH, WHAT A SHAME.
BASKETBALL STARS' CAREERS GO WITH A BANG.
SLEEPING BEAUTY'S NOT EVEN AWAKE TO SEE IT.
GUESS WHO WOKE UP.
AH!
YOU OKAY?
SURE. TYPICAL WEEKEND FOR ME, YOU KNOW.
SO,
AFTER WE SAVE THE WORLD AND ALL,
YOU THINK MAYBE
YOU AND I COULD, YOU KNOW...
YEAH. YEAH!
YEAH? YEAH! WE DEFINITELY COULD.
COOL.
SO, YOU WANNA...
OR WE COULD...
WE SHOULD...
GO SEARCH THE PERIMETER.
YES! TOTALLY, YES!
SEARCH THE PERIMETER.
WE GOTTA FIND A PLACE FOR EVERYONE TO GET OUT OF HERE.
HOW'D YOU FIND US?
WE SNUCK IN AND FOLLOWED EVERYONE ELSE.
HEARD ABOUT UNCLE BILLY'S MAD SCIENCY PLAN.
IS SHE...
SHE'S DEAD.
( blast )
WHERE IS MY BROTHER?
( alarm blaring )
DENNY! WHERE'S DAD?
DAD LEFT.
FOUR, FIVE, SIX. AGAIN.
HEY, GUYS, WE COULD REALLY USE SOME HELP OUT THERE.
ARCH, GO WITH HIM.
WHAT...WHAT AM I SUPPOSED TO DO?
I CAN'T STOP WHAT I'M DOING.
HERE.
Denny: THOSE STEEL BINDINGS WERE...
YOU TORE THROUGH THEM LIKE THEY WERE COKE CANS.
YOU'VE GOT STRENGTH NOW, ARCHIE.
THE BAD GUYS GET IN OUR PATH,
DENNY, I'M SORRY FOR BEING SUCH AN ASS...
LANGUAGE, BUDDY. NOW GO.
LISA, I NEED YOU TO WAKE UP.
I NEVER GOT TO TELL YOU THAT...I...I NEED YOU.
I NEVER GOT TO TELL YOU WHEN WE WERE TOGETHER.
AND YOU PICKED ME UP WHEN I WAS AT MY LOWEST,
WHEN I WAS READY TO GIVE UP.
AND I'LL NEVER FORGIVE MYSELF FOR LETTING YOU BREAK UP WITH ME
AND ALL THAT STUPID STUFF THAT HAPPENED AFTERWARDS.
SO CAN...CAN YOU JUST WAKE UP FOR ME
SO THAT I CAN TELL YOU ALL THAT?
COME ON, LISA. COME ON. WAKE UP.
WAKE UP. WAKE UP.
FIVE. FOUR...
UGH!
BACK FOR MORE?
HEY, WERE YOU GONNA ASK ME ON A DATE BACK THERE?
OH, WELL MAYBE IF YOU PLAY YOUR CARDS RIGHT.
AAH!
Adam: ARE YOU ALL RIGHT?
Gwen: ARCH.
I JUST CAUGHT A BULLET.
THERE SHOULD BE A HOLE IN MY HAND.
I JUST CAUGHT A BULLET.
WATCH THIS.
GWEN, NOW.
PLEASE. PLEASE, LISA, WAKE UP.
I WOULD GIVE ANYTHING FOR YOU TO WAKE UP RIGHT NOW. COME ON.
♪ WE STILL HAVE ENERGY IN US
COME ON, LISA, IF I HAVE TO GIVE UP EVERYTHING I WILL.
♪ THERE'S SO MUCH ENERGY IN US ♪
IT WORKED.
DENNY. DENNY.
I HEARD YOU. WHEREVER I WAS, I HEARD YOU.
I LOVE YOU.
YO, WE GOT TO GO.
SOMEBODY TRIGGERED THE SELF-DESTRUCT SEQUENCE.
HELP ME WALK.
Archie: YOU'RE ALIVE! Gwen: WHAT HAPPENED?
LONG STORY.
OKAY, SO, UNCLE BILLY NEEDS HIS NEXT FIX OF ZERO ENERGY
BUT HE COULDN'T GET IT FROM US.
BUT DAD WENT AFTER HIM, TOO, SO WHERE ELSE COULD HE HAVE...
OH. YEAH.
OH? WHAT DO YOU MEAN OH?
HE WENT WHERE HE KNEW THERE WAS SPARE ZERO ENERGY.
BACK WHERE IT ALL STARTED.
ARE YOU SURE YOU WANT TO DO THIS?
I MEAN, YOU SAW THOSE ROADS,
THIS IS NOW THE ONLY WAY UP THE MOUNTAIN.
WE'RE THE ONLY ONES WHO CAN STOP UNCLE BILLY.
NO ONE ELSE CAN.
ADAM, DO YOU THINK YOU CAN TELEPORT DENNY UP THE MOUNTAIN?
NO, NO, IT DOESN'T WORK LIKE THAT.
I TRIED TO CARRY ARCHIE EARLIER,
BUT I CAN'T TAKE OTHER PEOPLE WITH ME.
COME ON.
OKAY, THIS IS THE FASTEST WAY.
DUDE, YOU DON'T HAVE ANY GEAR.
IT DOESN'T MATTER, ARCHIE'S GOING TO CARRY ME.
I'M GONNA WHAT?
BUT I'VE NEVER EVEN CLIMBED BEFORE.
WHY IS THE MOUNTAIN THERE?
SO IT CAN BE CONQUERED, BUT...
DUDE, YOU'RE BASICALLY SUPERMAN RIGHT NOW.
YOU GOT THIS. AND I'LL BE WITH YOU.
I'LL COACH YOU EVERY STEP OF THE WAY.
I NEED YOUR HELP.
SOMETIMES THE OLDER BROTHER'S GOTTA LEAN ON THE YOUNGER ONE.
ALL RIGHT.
GOT HIM?
YEAH. HE'S PRETTY LIGHT.
OF COURSE HE IS WHEN YOU'RE SO STRONG.
YOU ARE SUCH A CHEERLEADER.
RIGHT, I'M GONNA BE ALL OVER THIS CLIFF FACE.
SO IF YOU NEED ME JUST SCREAM.
DON'T WORRY, IF SOMETHING GOES WRONG
YOU'LL HEAR THE SCREAM.
OH, YOU GOT THIS.
UP, UP AND AWAY.
WILLIAM.
LOOKING WELL RESTED, BROTHER.
YOU USED ME.
LIKE I USE EVERYONE.
LIFE'S MORE FUN THAT WAY.
STOP WHAT YOU'RE DOING.
STOP?
I'VE ONLY JUST BEGUN.
I DON'T THINK SO.
HEY, DENNY? YEAH?
WE FOUND DAD.
ALL I EVER WANTED WAS TO BE SOMETHING MORE.
SOMETHING BIGGER THAN WHAT I WAS.
YET,
EVOLUTION FOUND YOU FIRST.
AND YOU DIDN'T EVEN WANT IT.
I DIDN'T CHOOSE THIS LIFE FOR MYSELF.
WILLIAM, YOU HAD A CHANCE TO BE NORMAL.
TO LIVE WITHOUT CONSTANTLY PUTTING YOUR FAMILY IN DANGER.
I DIDN'T WANT A FAMILY!
SOMETIMES A FAMILY FINDS YOU WHETHER YOU WANT THEM OR NOT.
AND FOR THE RECORD, I THINK YOU'D MAKE
A VERY TERRIBLE FATHER FIGURE.
Father: BOYS!
DAD.
SO.
WHAT'S IT GOING TO BE, UNCLE BILLY?
YOU'RE GONNA TAKE SOME RESPONSIBILITY?
OR FIGHT?
WHY DO I WASTE MY ENERGY ON YOU?
LOOK AT YOU.
THE ZERO ENERGY DIDN'T WANT YOU EITHER.
AND I DON'T NEED YOU ANYMORE.
( gunshot )
DENNY!
ARCHIE, DO YOU THINK YOU CAN HACK THE MACHINE AND REVERSE IT?
LET ME GO.
I...I DON'T KNOW. MAYBE.
USE THAT BRAIN AND FIGURE IT OUT, MAN.
I USED TO PROTECT YOU FROM EVERYTHING.
BULLIES, OUR HORRIBLE FATHER.
BUT NOW I JUST WANT TO THROW YOU TO THE WOLVES.
UH, I THINK I DID IT.
THROW THE SWITCH, ARCHIE.
DAD! THROW THE SWITCH NOW!
BETSY JESSICA BARNET.
( crowd applauding )
WHOO!
THIS IS GOING TO TAKE FOREVER.
YOU'RE JUST MAD YOU'RE NOT WALKING WITH THEM.
I CAN STILL FRY YOU, YOU KNOW.
HEY, FRY ME AND I WON'T TUTOR YOU FOR SUMMER SCHOOL.
Man: DENNIS NATHANIEL BURKE.
GO DENNY! OH, THERE HE IS.
STILL NEED TO LEARN TO CONTROL THAT.
YEAH.
LADIES AND GENTLEMEN,
I PRESENT THE GRADUATING CLASS OF PELLIAN CITY HIGH SCHOOL.
( all applauding )
Archie: OKAY, SO EVERYONE SMILE.
SAY, ZERO ENERGY.
I MEAN, CHEESE.
All: CHEESE.
( camera clicks )
ALL RIGHT.
THANK YOU.
SO, ARE YOU EXCITED
ABOUT GOING BACK TO WORK AT THE SHOP?
IT'S A GOOD JOB, AND IT SHOULD TIE ME OVER
UNTIL I CAN MAKE ENOUGH MONEY TO MOVE.
SO...
WHERE ARE YOU MOVING?
I HEAR FLORIDA'S NICE.
AND UNTIL THEN YOU'RE JUST GONNA HAVE TO
PORT BACK AND FORTH TO SEE ME.
NO, I DON'T KNOW IF I CAN COME BACK EVERY WEEKEND.
OH, DON'T WORRY, I'LL PUT A FIRE UNDER YOU.
Ferguson: SO WE GOING TO THAT PARTY LATER, MAN?
FOR SURE. YOU DEFINITELY HAVE TO HIT ME UP ABOUT THAT...
I'M SO SORRY. I... I'M SORRY.
HEY, GENIUS.
YOU KNOW WHAT, MY BAD.
FREE PUNCH. OKAY?
YEAH. READY. READY?
( crack )
AH!
DUDE!
UM, DON'T FORGET TO DRINK YOUR MILK.
SO OUT IN UNCLE BILLY'S LAND,
I MEAN, THE SCIENTISTS, THE BUILDINGS, WHAT HAPPENED?
IT'S JUST ALL GONE. IT'S LIKE THEY WERE NEVER THERE.
THEY GUTTED EVERYTHING.
WE THINK THERE MUST HAVE BEEN SOME PLAN
IN CASE UNCLE BILLY EVER DISAPPEARED.
WHAT ABOUT YOUR DAD?
HE HASN'T TURNED UP.
THE LAST BLAST COMPLETELY FIXED ME THOUGH.
DOCTORS SAID IT WAS A MINOR MIRACLE.
DENNY, THERE'S NOTHING MINOR ABOUT IT.
IT WAS A MIRACLE THOUGH.
YEAH.
LISA, I'VE BEEN THINKING.
WE'VE BEEN THROUGH A LOT THE PAST FEW DAYS.
THE PAST FEW MONTHS.
AND I'VE BEEN TRYING TO MAKE SENSE OF IT ALL.
I WAS UNFAIR TO YOU, WHEN WE WERE TOGETHER.
I WAS HURT AND I CLOSED OFF.
BUT, WHEN I NEARLY LOST YOU BACK THERE IT ALMOST KILLED ME.
I WANT TO BE A BETTER MAN.
I WANT TO BE THERE FOR YOU. ALWAYS.
I WANT US TO BE HAPPY TOGETHER.
ME, TOO.
SO, WHY DID WE BREAK UP?
BECAUSE I WAS WAITING FOR YOU TO FIGURE THAT OUT.
AND NOW?
I THINK YOU'VE MADE A PRETTY SUCCESSFUL RECOVERY.
GOOD.
Denny: HIGH SCHOOL'S TOUGH.
SOMETIMES I FELT LIKE I WAS ALL ALONE,
BUT REALLY I HAD HELP ALL ALONG.
THERE WAS FAMILY.
YOUR FAMILY IS WHAT YOU MAKE IT,
BUT WITH THE RIGHT PEOPLE SUPPORTING YOU,
YOU CAN OVERCOME ANY OBSTACLE,
DEFEAT ANY VILLAIN.
YESTERDAY I WOKE UP AND I THOUGHT
I KNEW EVERYTHING THERE WAS TO KNOW ABOUT MY LIFE.
BUT WHAT I LEARNED IS THIS.
WE'RE NOT JUST REGULAR PEOPLE, WE'RE SOMETHING MORE.
Lisa: SMILE.
Denny: WE'RE HEROES.

Nurse: FOUND HIM ON THE MOUNTAIN LAST WEEK.
THIRD DEGREE BURNS OVER 95% OF HIS BODY.
WE HAD TO RESTRAIN HIM, KEPT ATTACKING THE ORDERLIES.
HE TALK YET?
JUST KEEPS SAYING ONE WORD, OVER AND OVER AGAIN.
BURKE.
CALM DOWN, SON. I KNOW YOU'RE ANGRY.
THEM BURKE BOYS DID THIS TO YOU?
I KNOW THEM BURKE BOYS, MR. FINCH, FROM WAY BACK.
NOTHING BUT TROUBLE.
William: KEVIN!
YOU GET YOURSELF ALL HEALED UP, THEN YOU COME SEE ME.
ABOUT TIME I BROUGHT SOME TROUBLE OF MY OWN
DOWN ON THEM BURKE BOYS.
