Fatal Pulse

I went to the movies the other day,

I noticed a trend starting to emerge.

The yuppie fear thriller.

Now I don't know what a yuppie is,

we certainly weren't all as good looking

as James Spader or Rob Lowe.

These certainly aren't the movies I can relate to.

Do you ever notice in these films

how everybody's so well tanned, well toned and well groomed?

This one stars Matthew Modine and Melanie Griffith.

It also has a sociopathic in it played

by Michel Keaton, I hope I didn't ruin that for you.

Here's another example of yuppie culture, shoulder pads.

Now when I when I was growing up

the only time anyone wore shoulder pads

was in the national football league.

I guess it's supposed to be fashionable.

What exactly is a yuppie anyway?

I'm told it's an acronym,

it stands for young, urban, professional.

Of course when I was young I wasn't

concerned with being a young urban professional.

I was more concerned with surviving

the mortar rounds coming from a German gun in placement.

American youth of today are to busy

worrying about the color of their new BMW.

When I was a kid I had to stand in bread lines,

you know we had simpler problems when I was growing up.

Like if the Russians were gonna

be rolling tanks down Welsher Boulevard or not,

course when I was in my early 20s

my ambition was to dodge stuka dive bombers

that the Germans were laying on us at D day,

I wasn't concerned about new technology

like fanny packs or word processors.

No my concerns were more about whether

or not my buddies were hanging

dead from barbed wire on Omaha beach.

I was to busy jumping into my fox hole to avoid getting

my head blown off by a german machine gun in placement.

While these yuppies today walk around with

their fanny packs I was carrying home my buddy in a bucket.

Of course we didn't have fanny packs back

then otherwise we'd need very big

ones to carry around our buddies.

They call them body bags in the military.

Instead of fanny packs and other new technologies

like word processors and fax machines

my main concern was on Omaha beach

and the human soup that we were being ground

up into by the german artillery.

I'm Morley Safer we'll.

Trent.

General Schwartzcoff.

It's ready.

Get your cash ready.

Are you listening?

Yes sir.

I need you to do something.

Of course I'll do something sir.

Someone is hired to kill you.

Somebody you know Trent.

You understand?

Yes sir.

It's your goddamn partner Tim.

He wants you dead.

He wants me dead.

Listen to me.

You know Willard.

He hired Bono from U2 to do the dirty work Trent.

Can you believe that?

I'll take care of it immediately.

If something happens to

my mommy will you take care of me?

Of course I would.

And their destruction.

There's only one woman for me.

That's all you need.

Her triumph.

- When your husband makes love to you it's my face he's.

Just get out of our house.

- She's turning me Micheal just like you said she would.

Call the police.

Clare calm down.

You don't know what she's capable of.

People don't deserve freedom.

Anyone can have an exploit.

Micheal?

What goes around comes around.

Mommy.

The hand that rocks

the cradle is the hand that rules the world.

It's my family.

The hand that rocks the cradle.

They don't deserve free enterprise.

This is our time my friend.

Trent it's Dan.

Dan.

You alright?

I know this is gonna sound crazy,

I just saw a preview for this movie.

The hand that rocks the cradle.

Yeah I'm looking forward to that.

I saw myself in the preview.

What?

No it was me.

It was my life, it was my wife, it was my family.

That doesn't make any sense.

I know it doesn't

make any sense but that what I saw.

That's crazy.

I know it sounds crazy.

I saw myself in the trailer.

Bullshit.

I was in the preview.

That don't make no sense.

I saw myself in the trailer.

I saw my wife, I saw my babysitter.

No you saw Rebecca De Mornay.

I saw everything.

Trent listen to me you need some rest boy.

I want you to get some rest right now.

Alright, alright, ya.

You need some rest boy.

I think I know what this means.

There is a hand rocking the cradle.

It's rocking my cradle.

Trent listen to me.

The hand that rocks the cradle

is the hand that rule the world.

You understand boy?

Meh.

You know in all the years we've

been married I've never once seen you without that thing on.

That's because I'm always working.

What the hell, what the hell is that?

I have work to do and he's going though the garbage.

It's after midnight.

Shouldn't he be watching his 1.

Suppose he's taking out the trash?

Doubt it.
