The Dead Zone

Coach: Skate to the open ice, guys.

Come on now.

All right, attaboy. Attaboy, guys.

Move it around. Move the puck, guys.

No standing around. Move to an open space.

Hey, Sarah...

watch this.

Player: Hey, watch it, kid!

No, no.

No, don't go.

No, don't go there. No.

No, just leave it.

No, no, don't go.

Move, guys. Give him room.

Just leave it. Just leave it there.

Leave what where, fella?

What happened?

You hit your head.

It hurts.

Yeah, I bet.

Listen, I need you to go with Coach Miller.

He'll take you by the hospital, okay?

Okay, you guys, that's enough hockey for today.

It's getting slick out there anyway.

Let's go.

That was a pretty good practice today.

We are looking very good.

Hold my legs! Hold my legs!

Where the hell is he?!

I can't see him! Where is he?

He's here. He's right here.

Pull me back. Pull me back. Pull.

Pull me back. Pull, pull, pull.

Give me my skate.

Break! Break! Break!

Come here, come here.

Pull. Pull! Pull!

God... pull!

Just leave it there.

Guess they didn't hear you.

People, when we look at a tree from below,

we see bunches of leaves,

without composition,

without organization,

randomly spread all over the branches.

But...

nothing in nature is random.

From above, we can see

that each leaf has chosen the absolute perfect position

on the tree to gain exposure to sunlight.

This is nature's tapestry, people.

And it absolutely never fails to astonish.

Man: Mr. Smith?

Ah, Mr. Pelson.

We're here learning about photosynthesis today.

We're also going to learn about insurance today

if you don't get down from there right now.

Okay, I just wanted them to see the tree

from the sun's point of view, sir.

# Bum bum bum bum bum bum bum bum #

# Bum bum bum bum bum bum bum #

# Bum bum bum bum bum bum #

# Mr. Sandman #

# Bring me a dream #

# Make him the cutest that I've ever seen #

# Give him two lips like roses and clover #

- # And tell him... # - Oh my God. Ms. Bracknell,

you got to see this.

This is where it all started

right up in the trees.

Know what I mean?

It would make me feel better about paying the electric bill

if you used the classroom once in a while.

Dave, they will never look at a tree

the same way again. I promise.

I'm sure glad you're not Lars the janitor.

- Lars was just here. - Hmm.

He doesn't kiss nearly as well as you do.

- Open your mouth. - What?

Open your mouth!

What is that, tangerine?

Satsuma mandarin. Your taste of the day.

Everybody should experience a new taste everyday.

- Tomorrow-- - Don't...

I want you to surprise me.

Keep surprising me, Sarah.

You ready?

Girl: Ooh, hello, Mrs. Bracknell.

Boy: Busted.

Very impressive. Please extend my compliments

to the janitorial staff for their stocked inventory.

Aren't you late for a diploma? Get out of my hallway.

# To never ever #

# Can I... #

Minister: Today's self-appointed architects,

the conglomerates and the moneychangers

who worship gold...

even as they tear down every holy tradition,

infiltrating our governments, our universities,

the media.

Listen to what Founding Father and our second President

John Adams wrote.

""Our Constitution was made only for a moral--""

Johnny, I didn't hear the front door.

Trying to boost your ratings again?

Never hurts to try to see ourselves as others do.

Woman: Gene, have you see my glasses?

I can't find them any-- Johnny.

Mother. Have you checked the kitchen near the phone?

No, I didn't.

I thought you were going to the carnival

- with Sarah tonight. - I am.

I'm on my way to pick her up. I thought I'd stop by

and talk you into joining us.

I didn't realize you had... company.

You are welcome to join us, Reverend.

I promise not to take you anywhere near

the hootchie-cootchie shows.

The hootchie-cootchie shows are my bread and butter.

Without sin, no one would need me.

How do you do that?

He seems to have a knack for finding anything I lose.

Thanks for the invitation

but we've got so much to do for tomorrow.

Your mother's been a godsend to the Alliance.

Oh, yes, I know.

Good night, Mother.

Stay away from the hootchie-cootchie shows.

I'll try. I will try.

He walks 10 miles on his hands.

He can bite a silver dollar in half.

He's the one, the only...

Ever wonder why Reverend Purdy makes you so uncomfortable?

Beside the fact that he's soaking my mom for a ton of money?

I don't know, I just get one of those feelings

whenever I'm around that guy.

They're not always right, your feelings.

Your mom's no fool.

I'm sure she knows what she's doing with her money.

And besides, he's probably really good in bed.

I wouldn't know and I wouldn't want to know.

Boy student: This is a rip-off.

- Girl: Come on, Austin. - No, the whole thing is rigged.

Barker: State certified, son. We run an honest game.

You set tough odds against winning, don't you?

- You his family? - Teachers at his school.

Look, the odds are posted.

Maybe the young man here could use a little tutoring in math.

Nothing personal here.

All right, don't be shy. Get lucky.

- You have any money left? - No.

I'll stake you.

Barker: Oh, a whole quarter.

Tonight's big spender, ladies and gentlemen.

Well, well, well, what have we here?

Shall we go?

Let's give her a spin and see what happens.

- Feeling lucky tonight? - Feeling very lucky tonight.

Let's see what happens.

# In the hall when you go crying #

# For the man... #

Twice is luck, once is a fluke.

- Okay, we'll let it ride. - ""Let it ride,"" he says.

# But they catch you at the water #

# And the mourners are all singing #

# As they drag you by your feet #

# But the hangman isn't hanging #

# And they put you on the street #

# You go back, Jack, do it again #

# Wheel turning round and round #

# You go back, Jack, do it again... #

In nine years, I've never seen a run like that.

Never.

Nothing personal.

Yeah.

The wheel's closed.

I believe that's mine.

Put the rest in a college fund, okay?

Two?

Three?

Come on, give me a number.

Don't you get any kind of feeling at all

when we're like this?

Yeah, I have all sorts of nice feelings.

I'm starting to have one of those feelings right about now.

Johnny, come on. I want to know.

How many kids are we gonna have?

I see...

10, 15.

How about our own family hockey team?

Oh...

don't put your money on that one, pal.

I don't want to wait. I want to elope.

Think about it, 30 years from now,

I'll be that old, funny biology teacher.

You'll be headlining at the Grand Ole Opry.

Think about what a pair we'll make.

I can't believe it.

It's just all happening so fast.

Fast? Sarah, I've loved you all my life.
