Twins

On his 35th birthday...

I decided to tell Julius Benedict...

The truth about himself.

Julius already knew that he was the product...

Of a scientific experiment...

Conducted by the American government.

A top-secret experiment designed to produce a physically...

Mentally and spiritually advanced human being.

He knew that, unlike other little boys...

He had not one, but six fathers-

all very distinguished men...

Especially chosen for their genetic excellence.

And of course...

He knew about Mary Ann Benedict...

The remarkable young woman...

Who was selected to be his mother.

Sadly, he had long lived with the tragic knowledge...

That his mother died while giving birth to him.

Now, what Julius did not know...

Not until this very moment...

Was that about a minute after he was born...

His mother gave birth to another baby boy.

I have a brother?

Ya.

He was sent to an orphanage in Los Angeles...

At the same time I brought you here to the island.

Julius had spent his entire life here on the island...

Helping me with my research.

I always thought he was happy, and had no desire to leave.

How wrong I was.

I must find him.

Julius, Julius! Wait, wait.

I couldn't believe he was going.

He wasn't equipped to deal with the outside world.

All of his knowledge was from books.

Julius could speak 12 languages.

He excelled in history, science...

Mathematics, literature.

He was pure in body and in spirit.

Ahhh!

But for the first time...

Julius would not listen to me.

He's probably just like me.

The nearest island with an airport was 27 Miles away.

But Julius did not care.

He had become obsessed with the idea...

That his brother, Vincent, was in some kind of trouble...

And desperately needed his help.

Honey, I'm home!

- Oh, no! - Oh, no.

- Get going! - I'm going.

Oh, hello, hello!

Oh, my goodness!

Goodbye.

- We're gonna be late for work. - I need my horoscope.

- Yeah, horoscope. - "Your judgment is at its peak today."

Use it wisely, and romance will follow."

- Ooh, good one. - I hope so.

Ladies!

- Vince! - I thought you broke up with him.

I did, I did!

You don't mind if I talk to your sister, do you?

She doesn't mind.

Don't give him any money.

Uh, no, no, I promised marnie I wouldn't give you any money.

Don't look at me like-

don't do that thing with your eyes.

I'm not even supposed to be here with you.

You are here, and so am I.

Maybe millions of people go by...

But they all disappear from view.

I only have eyes for you, Linda.

I only have eyes for you.

Mmm.

- It's the baby klane! - What?

- Hi. - Hi.

- Can I help you? - Uh, yeah.

Where's the little shit?

You'll have to be more specific...

Concerning the clientele.

Benedict.

Oh, he wouldn't come in here.

- Isn't that right, marnie? - Who, Vincent?

That weasei? That creep?

I wouldn't serve him if he crawled in on his hands and knees.

I knew you were trouble the second I laid eyes on you.

Excuse me. I just have never heard this kind of music before.

thank you.

hey, Vince!

Listen, Al... You gotta help me out.

I'm into the klane brothers for $20,000.

- You borrowed money from a loan shark? - What do you got?

Got anything for me? See what you got.

We're doing this too often, Vince.

I'll give you something.

I got a nice BMW up on 4, stall 20.

Vince, I'll take all of these you can get.

All right, Tony.

- For you. - Thanks, Tony.

Yeah.

Whoa, Tony!

There's only $4000 here. For a car like this is $6000.

We're in a recession. Everything's tough.

You wanna try someone else, no hard feelings.

No, I just could've used some more.

- You okay, Vince? You seem worried. - Yeah.

Your bowels troubling you?

What an amazing country.

Hey.

Gotta light, pai?

Oh, excuse me. I don't smoke, pal.

Yeah. Ha-ha.

Yeah, good stuff, huh?

- Pickin' up something for the girlfriend? - I don't have a girlfriend.

Do women really wear those things?

If you're lucky, they do.

I can't believe it.

- You're from out of town? - Yes.

As a matter of fact, I come from an island in the South pacific.

Whoa!

What the hell did you do to him, man!

I did nothing. The pavement was his enemy.

Let me check him out. A light concussion.

Uh-oh.

- I carry him to a hospital. - No!

I think you should just take off, man.

Find your horse you came in on.

I'm so sorry about this.

- I feei terrible. - Me, too. Thanks a lot.

- Sorry. - Yeah, I'm sorry.

The next time you should really consider wearing helmets.

Yeah, have a nice day.

You don't have to buy them. Just don't say they're cheap!

These are quality socks.

What a day it's been. Oh, no, no, no!

Oh, oh! Jesus Christ!

$53! Are you out of your mind?

Your vehicle is in a handicapped zone, if you didn't notice.

So, do I look normai to you?

You don't have a handicapped sticker in your windshield.

Oh, come on. You don't need a sticker.

Handicapped, my ass!

I'll need your driver's license, sir.

Look, I'm sorry I lost my temper.

Driver's license, please.

- Look, I had a very bad day. - Driver's license... please.

You've got over 200 outstanding parking tickets, mr Benedict.

You just had your birthday. Your driver's license expired.

Happy Birthday. Watch your head.

Thanks.

Come along, now.

So this is where my brother grew up.

I'm so happy he had so many children to play with.

And that's where he must have slept!

Yes, it was.

How did you know?

It's the one I'd have chosen, close to the fire extinguisher.

In case of a fire...

I could have given the alarm and saved all the other orphans.

We've had only one fire in here at St. Charlotte's.

Vince Benedict started it, we like to think by accident.

Tell me a little bit about Vincent.

Was he a great athlete? Interested in chess and poetry?

I'm certain God had a purpose when he created Vince Benedict...

But it had nothing to do with chess or poetry.

Oh, I'm sorry.

Odd, the contents of his files are missing.

That is Vince?

He looks so happy.

He should. That's sister Maria...

- His biology teacher. - I always liked biology.

So did Vincent.

He disgraced sister Maria...

Who had to leave the order.

Then he stole all the money from the library fund, and ran away.

I must find my brother.

Do you know where he might be?

Jail, a man of his character can only be in jail.

You're full of goodness, Julius. I pray you never find him.

Benedict, visitor.

- I'm looking for Vincent Benedict. - You got him.

I have rowed halfway across the world-

wrong, I just rowed a day-

I've been looking forward to this moment my whole life.

I've been on my island, I'm telling you.

This is incredible that-I have looked for-

you've gotta talk into the phone, bozo.

Vincent. Dearest, Vincent...

I know you don't know who I am.

- But believe me, I came- - Whoa, whoa, whoa!

I've got another six hours to pay the money back.

Tell the klane brothers that harassing a man already in the slammer...
