251 I need help with my lines. 252 -Landon Carter's asking me for help? -Yeah. 253 Okay, I'll pray for you. 254 Jamie, look-- 255 You've obviously never asked anybody for help before, right? 256 A request like yours requires flattery and groveling. 257 It can't be about you. It has to be for the common good. 258 It is for the common good. Eddie Zimmerhoff deserves the best. 259 -Please? -Okay. One condition, though. 260 What's that? 261 You have to promise you won't fall in love with me. 262 -That's not a problem. -Okay. I'll see you today after school. 263 Landon Carter is coming here? 264 He's dangerous, careless, the worst kind of bully. 265 Daddy, what about forgiveness? 266 I thought we had discussed that I would decide... 267 ...how I wanted to spend my time and my life. 268 It's him I don't trust, not you. 269 You gonna keep me out here all afternoon? 270 Come on in. 271 My script is in my room. I'll be right down. Make yourself at home. 272 Oh, yeah. 273 It's not likely. 274 That is one scary-looking-- 275 -Jesus! -No, Jamie's father. 276 Hello, Mr. Carter. I understand you're the lead in the play. 277 Congratulations. 278 Thanks for letting me come over and run lines. 279 I didn't let you. 280 It's a school night. Let's get one thing straight, Mr. Carter. 281 You think that, on Sundays, I don't see you from where I stand. 282 But I see you. 283 I'll be in my office, just here. 284 Ready? 285 Yeah, let's go. 286 -Landon! Where have you been? -Nowhere. 287 -Hey, come here. -What's up? 288 -Are we cool? -Yeah, sure. 289 What the hell? 290 -What are you doing here? -I should ask you the same. 291 Do you normally walk alone in a cemetery at night? 292 Maybe. 293 Where you going? 294 Come and see. 295 Okay. What is that? 296 This is my telescope. I built it when I was 1 2. 297 Take a look. 298 Saturn. Very cool. 299 I'm planning on building a larger one so I can see the comet Hyakutake. 300 It comes this spring. Nobody knows when it'll be back. |
