Short filmTranscript
00:01:30I was 12 going on 13 the first time I saw a dead human being.
00:01:38It happened in the summer of 1959, a long time ago.
00:01:43But only if you measure in terms of years.
00:01:45I was living in a small town in Oregon called Castle Rock.
00:01:55There were only 1,281 people, but to me it was the whole world.
00:01:59Hey, it's the boss man, Bob Cormier here.
00:02:01It's a beautiful Friday morning in Portland.
00:02:03It's 90 KLM degrees and getting hotter.
00:02:06Up the ladder with another platter.
00:02:07It's Bobby Day with Rockin' Robin.
00:02:09It's boss.
00:02:10Hey, how do you know a Frenchman's been in your backyard?
00:02:31I'm French, okay?
00:02:33Your garbage cans are empty and your dog's pregnant.
00:02:36Didn't I just say I was French?
00:02:39I knock.
00:02:40Shit.
00:02:4229.
00:02:4322.
00:02:44Piss up a rope.
00:02:48Gordy's out.
00:02:49Old Gordy just bit the bag and stepped out the door.
00:02:54Come on, man.
00:02:55Deal.
00:02:56Teddy Duchamp was the craziest guy we hung around with.
00:02:59He didn't have much of a chance in life.
00:03:01His dad was given to fits of rage.
00:03:03One time he held Teddy's ear to his stove and almost burned it off.
00:03:08I knock.
00:03:10Before I pile of shit.
00:03:12A pile of shit has a thousand eyes.
00:03:17What?
00:03:18What's so funny?
00:03:19Come on, I got 30.
00:03:19What have you got?
00:03:2116.
00:03:22Go ahead.
00:03:23Keep laughing.
00:03:24You're down to your ride, pal.
00:03:26Chris Chambers was the leader of our gang and my best friend.
00:03:29He came from a bad family and everyone just knew he'd turn out bad.
00:03:33Including Chris.
00:03:34It's not the secret knock.
00:03:38I forget the secret knock.
00:03:40Let me in.
00:03:40Run.
00:03:42Come on, you guys.
00:03:43Open up.
00:03:45Oh, man.
00:03:46You guys are not going to believe this.
00:03:47This is so boss.
00:03:49Oh, man.
00:03:50Wait till you hear this.
00:03:51Wait till you hear this.
00:03:52You won't believe it.
00:03:53It's unbelievable.
00:03:55Let me catch my breath.
00:03:56I ran all the way from my house.
00:03:58I ran all the way home.
00:04:00Come on.
00:04:01You guys, listen to me.
00:04:02This is boss.
00:04:03Come on.
00:04:03I'm sorry.
00:04:04I'm sorry.
00:04:05Okay.
00:04:06Forget it.
00:04:07I'm going to have to tell you enough.
00:04:08Hold on, you guys.
00:04:09Hold on.
00:04:10What is it, man?
00:04:11Okay, great.
00:04:12You won't believe this.
00:04:12Sincerely.
00:04:13I ran all the way home.
00:04:15Screw you guys.
00:04:17Forget it.
00:04:18What is it?
00:04:19Can you guys camp out tonight?
00:04:21I mean, if you tell your folks who are going to tent out my backfield.
00:04:24Yeah.
00:04:24I think so.
00:04:26Except my dad's kind of on a mean streak.
00:04:27You know, he's been drinking a lot lately.
00:04:29You got you, man.
00:04:30Sincerely, you won't believe this.
00:04:32Can you, Cordy?
00:04:33Yeah, probably.
00:04:34So what are you pissing and moaning about, Verno?
00:04:37I knock.
00:04:38What?
00:04:39You liar.
00:04:40You ain't got no pad hand.
00:04:41You didn't deal yourself no pad hand.
00:04:43Make your try, shitty.
00:04:47You guys want to go see a dead body?
00:04:49Well, I was under the porch digging, you know?
00:04:55We all understood what Vern meant right away.
00:04:59At the beginning of the school year, he had buried a quart jar of pennies underneath his
00:05:03house.
00:05:04He drew a treasure map so he could find them again.
00:05:07A week later, his mom cleaned out his room and threw away the map.
00:05:12Vern had been trying to find those pennies for nine months.
00:05:15Nine months, man.
00:05:16He didn't know whether to laugh or cry.
00:05:20Jesus Christ, Billy.
00:05:21We got to do something.
00:05:22Why?
00:05:23Who cares?
00:05:24We saw him.
00:05:26So?
00:05:26It ain't nothing to us.
00:05:28The kid's dead, so it ain't nothing to him neither.
00:05:30And who gives a shit if they ever find him?
00:05:31I don't.
00:05:32What's that kid they were talking about on the radio?
00:05:36Brocker.
00:05:37Or Brower.
00:05:38Or Flowers.
00:05:38Whatever his name is.
00:05:40The train must have hit him.
00:05:43Big fucking deal.
00:05:45We had all followed the Ray Brower story very closely because he was a kid our age.
00:05:49Three days before, he had gone out to pick blueberries, and nobody had seen him since.
00:05:53I think we should tell the cops.
00:05:55You don't go squawking to the cops after you boosted a car, you idiot.
00:05:59They're going to want to know how the hell we got way out of Back Harlow Road.
00:06:02Now they know we don't got no car.
00:06:04It's best we just keep our mouth shut, and then they can't touch us.
00:06:06Look, we can make a nominous call.
00:06:09They trace those calls, stupid.
00:06:11I've seen it on Highway Patrol and on Dragnet.
00:06:14Yeah, right.
00:06:15I just wish we never boosted that goddamn Dodge.
00:06:18I wish Ace had been with us.
00:06:20Could have told the cops we was in his car.
00:06:21Well, he wasn't.
00:06:23Are we going to tell him?
00:06:24We're not going to tell nobody.
00:06:26Nobody, never.
00:06:26You take me?
00:06:27I know the Back Harlow Road.
00:06:29It comes to a dead end by the Royal River.
00:06:32The train tracks are right there.
00:06:34Me and my dad used to fish for cossees out there.
00:06:36Jesus Christ, man.
00:06:37If they would have known you were under there, they would have killed you.
00:06:39Could he have gotten all the way from Chamberlain to Harlow?
00:06:42That's really far.
00:06:43Sure.
00:06:44He must have started walking on the train tracks and just followed them the whole way.
00:06:48Yeah.
00:06:49Yeah, right.
00:06:50And then after dark, the train must have come along and fell smack-o.
00:06:55Yeah.
00:06:55Yeah.
00:06:57Hey.
00:06:59Hey, you guys.
00:07:00I bet you anything that if we find him, we'll get our pictures in the paper.
00:07:04Yeah.
00:07:04Yeah, we could even be on TV.
00:07:05Sure.
00:07:06We'll be heroes.
00:07:07Yeah.
00:07:08I don't know.
00:07:09Billy will know where I found out.
00:07:11He's not going to care.
00:07:12Because it's going to be us guys that find him, not Billy and Charlie Hogan in a boosted car.
00:07:16He'll probably pin a medal on you, Vern.
00:07:19Yeah, you think so?
00:07:21Sure.
00:07:21What will we tell our folks?
00:07:24Exactly what you said.
00:07:26We'll all tell our folks we're tenting out in your backfield.
00:07:29You tell your folks you're sleeping over at Teddy's.
00:07:31Then we'll see we're going over to the drag races the next day.
00:07:34We're rock solid till dinner tomorrow night.
00:07:36Man, that's a plan and a half.
00:07:38But if we do find that kid's body over in South Harlow, they'll know we didn't go to the drag races.
00:07:43We'll get hided.
00:07:44Nobody will care.
00:07:46Because everybody's going to be so jazzed about what we found, it's not going to make a difference.
00:07:50Yeah.
00:07:50Well, my dad will hide me anyway.
00:07:52But hell, it's worth the hiding.
00:07:53Shit, yeah.
00:07:54Let's do it.
00:07:54What do you say?
00:07:55All right.
00:07:56Cordy.
00:07:57Sure.
00:07:58Vern?
00:07:59I don't know.
00:08:01Vern.
00:08:02Come on, Verno.
00:08:04Vern.
00:08:06Vern.
00:08:06Come on, Verno.
00:08:07Verno, Verno, Verno.
00:08:10Too cool.
00:08:12Too cool.
00:08:12Very cool.
00:08:13Very, very cool.
00:08:13Yes.
00:08:14I wanted to share my friend's enthusiasm, but I couldn't.
00:08:18That summer at home, I had become the invisible boy.
00:08:24Mom?
00:08:25You know where my canteen is?
00:08:30Mom?
00:08:35It's in Denny's room.
00:08:36Oh.
00:08:39In April, my older brother Dennis had been killed in a jeep accident.
00:08:43Four months had passed, but my parents still haven't been able to put the pieces back together
00:08:47again.
00:08:48two years, my parents still haven't been to know whether they had
00:08:52been killed.
00:08:53She's like, I was once again.
00:08:56Yes.
00:09:00Go ahead.
00:09:01True.
00:09:05It was a thing.
00:09:06It was not going to be induction in here.
00:09:08You know what?
00:09:09It was hard to go.
00:09:10It, I was probably first.
00:09:11I was back before.
00:09:13I was so happy with everybody, uh people.
00:09:15Hey, Gordy, I got something for you.
00:09:31This, my friend, is for you.
00:09:35Hey, this is your Yankee cap.
00:09:37No, no, no, this is your Yankee cap.
00:09:39It's a good luck cap.
00:09:40You wear that cap, you know how many fish we're going to catch?
00:09:41How much?
00:09:42A bazillion.
00:09:43A bazillion fish.
00:09:44And it looks good on you, too, just like that.
00:09:47Hey, Mo, I'm going blind.
00:09:48Hey, don't start with me, porcupine.
00:09:50Come here, come here, give me a hug.
00:09:53You found it.
00:09:55Huh?
00:09:57You found it.
00:09:59Yeah.
00:10:07Why can't you have friends like Denny's?
00:10:10Dad, they're okay.
00:10:11Sure they are, a thief and two Pheebs.
00:10:15Chris isn't a thief.
00:10:16He stole the milk money at school.
00:10:19He's a thief in my book.
00:10:20It was almost noon as we set out to find the body of a dead kid named Ray Brower.
00:10:44Right here, Cole.
00:10:47Hey, Chris.
00:10:48Thanks a lot.
00:10:50Sure thing.
00:10:52Gordo.
00:10:52Hey, man.
00:10:54You want to see something?
00:10:56Sure, what?
00:10:57Are you okay?
00:10:58Yeah, I'm fine.
00:10:59Come on, man.
00:10:59What is it?
00:11:01Come on, man.
00:11:02You got to see this.
00:11:02Come on, man.
00:11:03What is it?
00:11:06Come on.
00:11:07What is it?
00:11:08You want to be the Lone Ranger or the Cisco Kid?
00:11:17Walking, talking, Jesus.
00:11:20Where'd you get this?
00:11:22Talked it from my old man's bureau.
00:11:24It's 45.
00:11:25I can see that.
00:11:26You got shells for it?
00:11:32Yeah.
00:11:33I took all that was left in the box.
00:11:35My dad will think that he used them himself shooting at beer cans while he was drunk.
00:11:40Is it loaded?
00:11:41Hell no.
00:11:42What do you think I am?
00:11:44Wow.
00:11:46Jesus!
00:11:46Let's get out of here.
00:11:47Come on.
00:11:48Come on.
00:11:48Hey, who did that?
00:11:56Who's letting cherry bombs off out here?
00:12:00Oh, man.
00:12:01You should have seen your face.
00:12:02Damn, that was cool.
00:12:04That was really fine.
00:12:05You knew it was loaded, you wet end.
00:12:07I'm going to be in trouble now.
00:12:08That Tupper Babe saw me.
00:12:10Shit, Gordy.
00:12:10She thought it was firecrackers.
00:12:11I don't care.
00:12:12That was a mean trick, Chris.
00:12:13Hey, Gordy.
00:12:16I didn't know it was loaded.
00:12:18Honest.
00:12:19You swear?
00:12:21Yeah, I swear.
00:12:23On your mother's name?
00:12:25Yeah.
00:12:26Even if she goes to hell because you lied?
00:12:28Yeah, I swear.
00:12:31Pinky swear.
00:12:34Pinky swear.
00:12:42Hey, girls.
00:12:42Where you going?
00:12:44Hey, come on, man.
00:12:44My brother gave me that.
00:12:46Now you've given it to me.
00:12:47Give it to me.
00:12:48Come on, man.
00:12:50That's mine.
00:12:52You real asshole.
00:12:53You know that?
00:12:55Ooh.
00:12:57Your brother's not very polite, eyeball.
00:13:00Now, Christopher, I know you didn't mean to insult my friend.
00:13:05I know he didn't mean to insult me.
00:13:07That's why I'm going to give him the opportunity of taking it back.
00:13:10Take it back.
00:13:14Oh, shit.
00:13:15Take it back.
00:13:16Come on, man.
00:13:17Stop it.
00:13:17You're hurting him, bastard.
00:13:19Let go, man.
00:13:19Stop it, man.
00:13:20Take it back, kid.
00:13:23Cut it out.
00:13:24Take it back.
00:13:24You'll be...
00:13:25Okay, okay.
00:13:26I take it back.
00:13:26I take it back.
00:13:31There.
00:13:33I feel a whole lot better about this.
00:13:35How about you?
00:13:40Good.
00:13:44See you later, girls.
00:13:57Come on.
00:13:58Just forget him.
00:13:59Well, what do we need a pistol for, anyway?
00:14:15Spooky seeping out at night in the woods.
00:14:17You might see a bear.
00:14:19Or a garbage can.
00:14:24I brought a comb.
00:14:26What do we need a comb for?
00:14:27Well, if we get on TV, we want to look good, don't we?
00:14:30That's a lot of thinking, Vern.
00:14:31Thanks.
00:14:32Two for flinching.
00:14:33Ow.
00:14:39How far do you think it's going to be?
00:14:43If we follow the tracks all the way into Harlow, it'll be about 20 miles.
00:14:47Sound about right to you, Gordy?
00:14:48Yeah.
00:14:49Yeah, it might even be 30.
00:14:51Gee, maybe we should just hitchhike.
00:14:54There's no way.
00:14:55That sucks.
00:14:56Why not?
00:14:56We could go out to Route 7 to the Sharlow Church, then down the back Harlow Road.
00:15:01We'll be there by sundown.
00:15:03That's pussy.
00:15:04Hey, it's a long ways.
00:15:06Did you know there ever have any kids that lived?
00:15:09What do you mean?
00:15:10Shh.
00:15:11Have gun, will travel, reads the card of a man.
00:15:22A knight without armor in a savage land.
00:15:26His fast gun for hire, he's the calling wind.
00:15:30A soldier of fortune, here's a man called paladin.
00:15:35Paladin, paladin, paladin, where do you run?
00:15:38We'll get the fill up at the junkyard.
00:15:39My dad said it's a safe will.
00:15:42Not if chopper's there.
00:15:43Chopper's there.
00:15:44We'll see.
00:15:45Ha ha, very funny.
00:15:46You are far from home.
00:15:51Hey, I'm kind of hungry.
00:15:52Who's got the food?
00:15:53Oh, shit.
00:15:55Did anybody bring anything?
00:15:58Not me.
00:15:59Gordy?
00:16:00Oh, this is great.
00:16:02What are we supposed to do?
00:16:04Eat our feet?
00:16:05You mean you didn't bring anything either?
00:16:07Oh, shit, this wasn't my idea.
00:16:08It was Vern's idea.
00:16:09Why didn't you bring something?
00:16:10What am I supposed to do?
00:16:11Think of everything?
00:16:12I brought the comb.
00:16:13Oh, great, you brought the comb.
00:16:14What do you need a comb for?
00:16:15You don't even have any hair.
00:16:16I brought it for you guys.
00:16:17Hey, hey, hey, hey, hey.
00:16:19Let's see how much money we got.
00:16:23Yeah, I got a dollar, too.
00:16:28And a 68 cents from Chris.
00:16:3260 cents from Teddy.
00:16:39Seven cents, Vern.
00:16:41I haven't found my pennies yet.
00:16:44Well, 237's not bad.
00:16:47Queen of Chalos is at the end of that little road
00:16:49that goes by the junkyard.
00:16:50I think we can get some stuff there.
00:16:51Come on.
00:16:52Train coming.
00:16:57Join them all!
00:17:02Come on, Teddy.
00:17:03No.
00:17:05Uh-uh.
00:17:06I'm gonna dodge it.
00:17:09Come on, Teddy, man.
00:17:10Get off the tracks.
00:17:11You're crazy.
00:17:12Train dodge.
00:17:14Dig it.
00:17:14Get off the tracks, Teddy.
00:17:21You wanna get yourself killed?
00:17:23Just like the beach had already.
00:17:27Come on, man.
00:17:29Come on, man. Come on.
00:17:31No, no, come on.
00:17:32You asshole.
00:17:46Bitch, I'm just trying to save your life, man.
00:17:49You want to kill yourself?
00:17:50Is that what you want, goddammit?
00:17:52You're trying to kill yourself.
00:17:59I don't need no babysitter.
00:18:03I do, too.
00:18:10Skin it.
00:18:13I could have dodged it.
00:18:16Listen, Teddy, you can dodge it on the way back, man.
00:18:20Peace.
00:18:22Skin it.
00:18:29You shake my nerves and you rattle my brain.
00:18:50About this time, Charlie and Billy were playing mailbox baseball with ace and eyeball.
00:18:56Oh, shit, I'm out.
00:18:58Goddammit.
00:18:59Shouldn't have gone for a wooden one.
00:19:02Why don't you tell me something I don't know, asshole?
00:19:06Billy, you're up.
00:19:08Nah, you guys win.
00:19:09I don't want to play no more.
00:19:10Hey, you can't quit.
00:19:12We only played three innings.
00:19:14That would be a non-official game.
00:19:16Hey, ace, uh...
00:19:17Me and...
00:19:19Who's with you homo?
00:19:21You've been acting psycho all day.
00:19:23What is it?
00:19:27It's nothing, nothing.
00:19:28It's nothing, right?
00:19:30Then if you gentlemen don't mind, I'd like to finish this game before I start collecting my goddamn social security, okay?
00:19:36You're up, Billy.
00:19:37Move it.
00:19:38All right.
00:19:39Let's play ball.
00:19:41Yes.
00:19:44Now, Bob.
00:19:46Hey, Vern.
00:20:01Looks like your ma's been out driving again.
00:20:04Oh, it's so funny I forgot to laugh.
00:20:06Shh, shh.
00:20:07Stand back, men!
00:20:10Pantos!
00:20:11Over the side!
00:20:11No trespassing was enforced by Milo Pressman, the junkman, and his dog Chopper, the most feared and least seen dog in Castle Rock.
00:20:22Legend had it that Milo had trained Chopper not just to sick, but to sick specific parts of the human anatomy.
00:20:29Thus, a kid who had illegally scaled the junkyard fence might hear the Dread cry, Chopper, sick balls.
00:20:37But right now, neither the Dread Chopper nor Milo was anywhere in sight.
00:20:44Teddy's crazy.
00:20:45What's up, B.A.R.?
00:20:46Come on!
00:20:47Come on, man, move it out!
00:20:48Yeah.
00:20:49He won't love to be 20, I bet.
00:20:52How many times you saved him in the tree?
00:20:54Yeah.
00:20:55You know, I dream about that sometimes.
00:20:57Except in the dream, I always miss him.
00:21:00I just get a couple of his hairs and down he goes.
00:21:03It's weird.
00:21:05Yeah, it is weird.
00:21:07But you didn't miss him.
00:21:09Chris Chambers never misses, does he?
00:21:11Not even when the ladies leave the seat down.
00:21:15Can I race you?
00:21:16No, I don't think so.
00:21:17Oh, right to the punt, man.
00:21:18Come on.
00:21:19I'm kind of tired.
00:21:20Go!
00:21:20Oh, you're a dead man, Lachance!
00:21:22It looks like Lachance has got him this time.
00:21:25He's got Chambers beat.
00:21:26But what's this?
00:21:28Chambers is making his move.
00:21:29The chance is fading on it.
00:21:30Chambers at the tape.
00:21:32The crowd goes wild.
00:21:33Hey, you guys been watching the Mickey Mouse quote lately?
00:21:56Yeah.
00:21:57I think Annette's tits are getting bigger.
00:22:00Think so?
00:22:00Yeah, I think so.
00:22:01Yeah, I think he's right.
00:22:02I've been noticing lately that the A and the E are starting to bend around the side.
00:22:08Next tits are great.
00:22:10Yeah.
00:22:11Yeah.
00:22:12This is really a good time.
00:22:15It must.
00:22:15A blast.
00:22:17Vern didn't just mean being off limits inside the junkyard or fudging on our folks or going
00:22:22on a hike up the railroad tracks to Harlow.
00:22:24He meant those things, but it seems to me now it was more and that we all knew it.
00:22:30Everything was there and around us.
00:22:32We knew exactly who we were and exactly where we were going.
00:22:36It was grand.
00:22:37What time is it, Gordy?
00:22:47Um, it's a quarter after one.
00:22:50We better go get the food.
00:22:51Chunkyard opens at three.
00:22:53Chopper won't be here.
00:22:54Ooh, six balls.
00:22:56You go.
00:22:57You can pick us up on the way back.
00:23:00I'm not going alone.
00:23:01We should all go.
00:23:01I'm standing right here.
00:23:03Yeah, man, I'm not going.
00:23:04I'm not going anywhere.
00:23:05Girls, girls, girls, cool it.
00:23:07We'll flip for it.
00:23:08Okay.
00:23:10Odd man goes.
00:23:11That's you, Gordy.
00:23:12Odd as a god.
00:23:13Flippery, man.
00:23:14Four tails.
00:23:22Oh, Jesus, man.
00:23:23That's a gooch-er.
00:23:25Oh, come on, Brian.
00:23:26This doesn't mean anything.
00:23:26Let's go again.
00:23:27No, man.
00:23:28A gooch-er.
00:23:28That's really bad.
00:23:30You remember when Clint Bracken and those guys got wiped out on Weed Hill in Durham?
00:23:35Billy told me they were sipping for beers.
00:23:37And they came up with a gooch-er just before they got into the car.
00:23:40And bang!
00:23:41They all got totaled.
00:23:42I don't like this.
00:23:44Sincerely.
00:23:45Verno!
00:23:46Nobody believes that crap about moons and goochers.
00:23:49It's baby stuff.
00:23:51Now, come on.
00:23:51Flip again.
00:23:56You getting a flip or not?
00:23:57Come on, Verno.
00:23:58We don't have all day.
00:24:03You lose, Gordy.
00:24:06Gordy loses.
00:24:08Oh, Gordy just screwed the pooch.
00:24:11Does the word retarded mean anything to you?
00:24:13Yeah, Gordy.
00:24:14Gordy, go get the provisions, you morphodite.
00:24:16Don't call me any of your mother's pet names.
00:24:18Hee, hee, hee, hee.
00:24:19What a wet end you are, all the chance.
00:24:22Shut up.
00:24:23I don't shut up.
00:24:24Shut up.
00:24:24I grow up.
00:24:25And when I look at you, I throw up.
00:24:27Ah!
00:24:28And then your mother goes around the corner and she licks it up.
00:24:31Oh, that's right there.
00:24:33Finding new and preferably disgusting ways to degrade a friend's mother was always held
00:24:39in high regard.
00:24:53Ain't you done any little chances, brother?
00:24:54Yes, sir.
00:24:59Shame what happened to him.
00:25:01The Bible says in the midst of life we are in death.
00:25:05Did you know that?
00:25:08I lost a brother in Korea.
00:25:12You look like your brother, Denny.
00:25:15People ever tell you that?
00:25:17Sometimes.
00:25:18I remember the year was all conference.
00:25:25Quarterback he played.
00:25:27Boy, could he throw.
00:25:29Father, God, and Sonny Jesus.
00:25:37Could be some scouts at the game tomorrow.
00:25:39I don't know, Pop.
00:25:40Dad, can I have the potatoes?
00:25:42That's what I hear, son.
00:25:43Are you going to see Jane after the game?
00:25:46I think she's a lovely girl.
00:25:47Dad, can you please have the potatoes?
00:25:49Dorothy, don't talk to the boy about girls.
00:25:51Dad.
00:25:52You shouldn't be thinking about girls.
00:25:54This is the biggest game of his life.
00:25:56Dennis, when you're out there tomorrow...
00:25:58Pop, did you read the story that Gordy wrote?
00:26:00Gordy wrote a story.
00:26:02It was really good.
00:26:03What did you write, sweetheart?
00:26:04Now, see?
00:26:05That's what I'm talking about.
00:26:07Football takes concentration.
00:26:09You start in on the girls and his mind's all over the place.
00:26:12Dorothy, I really liked it.
00:26:14That was great.
00:26:15I don't want you interrupting me.
00:26:16Now, you see I'm talking to the boy, don't you?
00:26:21You play football?
00:26:23Hmm?
00:26:24Do you play football?
00:26:28No.
00:26:30What do you do?
00:26:34I don't know.
00:26:36Yeah, well, your brother, Denny Short, would play football.
00:26:38There goes a kid, buck and a half a hamburger.
00:26:46Let's play football.
00:27:06Hey!
00:27:08Hey, you kid!
00:27:08You killed me!
00:27:09Hey!
00:27:09Hey, you kid!
00:27:10Hey! Hey, you kid! What are you doing there? Come over here!
00:27:15You! You! Come back here! Come back here! God damn it! I'll stick my dog on you!
00:27:21Run, Gordy! Run, Gordy!
00:27:24Chopper! Sick him! Sick him, boy!
00:27:27Now, he said, sick him, boy. But what I heard was, Chopper sick balls.
00:27:40Oh! Oh! Oh! Oh! Oh! Oh! Oh! Oh! Oh! Oh! Oh! Oh! Oh! Oh! Oh! Oh!
00:27:48Did you see that, Chopper?
00:27:50Chopper was my first lesson in the vast difference between myth and reality.
00:27:55Go on, Chubby! Chips my ass, Choppy! Chips my ass!
00:27:59Go on! Bite sick!
00:28:02Go on, Choppy! Sick balls, Choppy!
00:28:05Hey, you kids! Stop teasing that dog! You hear me? Stop teasing them!
00:28:09Sonny, I'm gonna beat your ass teasing my dog like that.
00:28:12Yeah, like she'd try to climb over his fence and get me fat ass.
00:28:15Don't you call me that, you little tin weasel peckerwood loony, son.
00:28:22What did you call me?
00:28:23I know who you are.
00:28:25You're Teddy Duchamp.
00:28:27Your dad's a loony.
00:28:28A loony up in the nuthouse in Togas.
00:28:31He took your ear and he put it to a stove and he burnt it off.
00:28:35My father stormed the beach in Normandy.
00:28:37He's crazier than a shithouse rat.
00:28:40No wonder you're acting the way you are, with a loony for a father.
00:28:44You call my dad a loony again and I'll kill you.
00:28:47Loony, loony, loony.
00:28:49I'm gonna rip your head off and shit down your neck!
00:28:54I'm gonna kill him!
00:28:55You come on and try it, you little slimy bastard.
00:28:58He wants you to go over there so he can beat the piss out of you and then take you to the cops.
00:29:01You watch your mouth, smart guy. Let him do his own fighting.
00:29:04Sure, you only outweighed my 500 pounds, fat ass!
00:29:08I know your name.
00:29:08You're the chance.
00:29:10I know all you guys and all your fathers are gonna get a call from me.
00:29:16Except for the loony up in Togas.
00:29:18Ah! Come on, man!
00:29:20I'll kill you already!
00:29:21I'll kill you!
00:29:23Get away from the back of you!
00:29:24Foul-mouthed whore-master!
00:29:25Come on, man!
00:29:25You son of a bitch!
00:29:27I'll kill you!
00:29:27You come back here!
00:29:28Come back here, you hear me?
00:29:30Nobody wakes up my own man!
00:29:31Come back here!
00:29:32My father stormed the beach in Normandy!
00:29:34I said come back here!
00:29:34Eat your door to my bitch, you faggot!
00:29:37Come back here!
00:29:46We showed him.
00:29:48Thought we were a bunch of pussies.
00:29:49You rake my old man.
00:29:53I wondered how Teddy could care so much for his dad who practically killed him.
00:29:57And I couldn't give a shit about my own dad who hadn't laid a hand on me since I was three.
00:30:01And that was for eating bleach under the sink.
00:30:03You rake my old man!
00:30:05Why do you care what a fat old pile of shit like him says about your dad?
00:30:09He still stormed the beach in Normandy, right?
00:30:13Yeah, forget it.
00:30:14You think that pile of shit was at Normandy?
00:30:16Forget it, all right?
00:30:17He don't know nothing about your old man.
00:30:18He's just dog shit.
00:30:20Whatever is between you and your old man, he can't change that.
00:30:23Forget it, all right?
00:30:24Just forget it!
00:30:35Have gun-wool travel reads the card of a man
00:30:43A knight without armor in a savage way
00:30:49I'm sorry if I'm spoiling everybody's good time.
00:30:59It's okay, man.
00:31:01It's okay.
00:31:02I'm not sure it should be a good time.
00:31:05You saying you want to go back?
00:31:07No.
00:31:09But going to see a dead kid, maybe it shouldn't be a party.
00:31:15Yeah.
00:31:16Like if he's really bad, like all cut up in blood and shit all over him,
00:31:21I might have nightmares.
00:31:23No, girl.
00:31:23You know, like old guts and eyeballs already to jump and grab?
00:31:26Shut up! Come on, girl!
00:31:27God damn it!
00:31:28I can't help it.
00:31:31Sorry.
00:31:32It was only a quarter to three, but it felt much later.
00:31:37It was too hot and too much had happened.
00:31:40We weren't even close to the Royal River yet.
00:31:43We were going to have to get moving if we were going to make some real miles before dark.
00:31:47I wonder, wonder, who, who, who, who, who wrote the book out loud?
00:31:55Hold still, will you?
00:31:56Tell me, tell me, tell me, I'm so gross with the law.
00:32:00So, uh, what's with you and this Connie Palermo chick?
00:32:07Eh, I've been seeing her for over a month now, and all she let me do is feel her tits.
00:32:11She's a Catholic, man.
00:32:13They're all like that.
00:32:15If you want to get laid, you've got to get yourself a Protestant.
00:32:17She was good.
00:32:21A KLAM news break.
00:32:23We interrupt to bring you an update on the search for the missing 12-year-old Ray Brower.
00:32:27The police have expanded their efforts to include Mutton, Durham, and the outlying areas.
00:32:32Shit, when are they going to give up?
00:32:34The kid's gone.
00:32:35They're never going to find him.
00:32:36Not where they're looking.
00:32:37Hey, I was right, Charlie.
00:32:39They ain't never going to find him.
00:32:41Would you hold still?
00:32:41You're making me fuck up the snake part.
00:32:44I'll tell you how they're going to find him.
00:32:46Ten years from now, some hunter's going to go in the woods to take a leak, wind up pissing on his bones.
00:32:53I'll bet you a thousand bucks he's fined him before that.
00:32:55I'll bet you two thousand dollars he don't.
00:32:57Well, asshole.
00:32:58Hey, what's the big deal?
00:33:00Who cares?
00:33:01Would you two just shut the fuck up?
00:33:03If either one of you assholes had two thousand dollars, I'd kill you both.
00:33:07Hey, we're back here with the boss man, Bob Cormier.
00:33:10From the racks and stacks, it's the best on wax.
00:33:12It's the Cordettes with Lollipop.
00:33:16Hey, I got some Winstons.
00:33:41I'll come off my old man's dresser.
00:33:44One apiece for after supper.
00:33:46Yeah, that's cool.
00:33:47Yeah.
00:33:49It's when a cigarette tastes best.
00:33:51After supper.
00:33:52Right.
00:34:00Do you think I'm weird?
00:34:02Definitely.
00:34:03No, man, seriously.
00:34:05Am I weird?
00:34:05Yeah, but so what?
00:34:08Everybody's weird.
00:34:18You ready for school?
00:34:20No.
00:34:21Junior high.
00:34:23You know what that means.
00:34:25The next June we'll be split up.
00:34:28What are you talking about?
00:34:29Why would that happen?
00:34:30It's not going to be like grammar school, that's why.
00:34:33If you're taking your college courses and me, Teddy, and Vern, while we'll be in the shop courses with the rest of the retards making ashtrays and birdhouses.
00:34:44You're going to meet a lot of new guys.
00:34:46Smart guys.
00:34:48Meet a lot of pussies is what you mean.
00:34:49No, man.
00:34:50Don't say that.
00:34:51Don't even think that.
00:34:53I'm not going in with a lot of pussies.
00:34:54Forget it.
00:34:55Well, then you're an asshole.
00:34:56What's asshole about wanting to be with your friends?
00:34:58It's asshole if your friends drag you down.
00:35:01You hang with us, you'll just be another wise guy with shit for brains.
00:35:05You think Mighty Mouse could beat up Superman?
00:35:07What are you, crat?
00:35:09Why not?
00:35:10I saw the other day you was carrying five elephants in one hand.
00:35:13Boy, you don't know nothing.
00:35:15Mighty Mouse is a cartoon.
00:35:17Superman is a real guy.
00:35:19No way a cartoon could beat up a real guy.
00:35:23Yeah, maybe you're right.
00:35:24It would be a good fight, though.
00:35:27Shh.
00:35:29I mean, you could be a real writer someday, Gordy.
00:35:33Fuck writing.
00:35:34I don't want to be a writer.
00:35:36It's stupid.
00:35:37It's a stupid waste of time.
00:35:38That's your dad talking.
00:35:40Bullshit.
00:35:40Bull true.
00:35:41I know how your dad feels about you.
00:35:43He doesn't give a shit about you.
00:35:44Danny was the one he cared about.
00:35:45Don't try to tell me different.
00:35:46You're just a kid, Gordy.
00:35:56Oh, gee, thanks, Dad.
00:35:58Which the hell I was, your dad.
00:36:01You wouldn't be going around talking about taking these stupid shop courses if I was.
00:36:05It's like God gave you something, man.
00:36:09All those stories that you can make up.
00:36:11And he said, this is what we got for you, kid.
00:36:13Try not to lose it.
00:36:15But kids lose everything unless there's someone there to look out for them.
00:36:18And if your parents are too fucked up to do it, then maybe I should.
00:36:23Come on, you guys.
00:36:24Let's get moving.
00:36:25Yeah, by the time we get there, the kid won't even be dead anymore.
00:36:28Every day it's getting closer
00:36:38Going faster than a roller coaster
00:36:42Love like yours will surely come my way
00:36:46Hey, hey, hey, hey
00:36:49Every day it's getting faster
00:36:53Everyone said go out and ask her
00:36:56Love like yours will surely come my way
00:37:01Any of you guys know when the next tree is due?
00:37:17We could go down to the Route 136 bridge.
00:37:20What are you, crazy?
00:37:21That's five miles down the river.
00:37:23You walk five miles down the river, you gotta walk five miles back.
00:37:26That could take till dark.
00:37:28We go across here, we can get to the same place in ten minutes.
00:37:31Yeah, but if a train comes, there's no words to go.
00:37:35Well, there isn't.
00:37:36Then just jump.
00:37:37Teddy, it's a hundred feet.
00:37:38Yeah, Teddy.
00:37:40Look, you guys can go around if you want to.
00:37:43I'm crossing here.
00:37:44And while you guys are dragging your candy asses
00:37:47Halfway across the state and back
00:37:48I'll be waiting for you on the other side
00:37:51Relaxing with my thoughts
00:37:53You use your left hand or your right hand for that?
00:37:58You wish
00:37:59Okay.
00:37:59Let's go.
00:38:00I don't know.
00:38:15Let's do it.
00:38:48I lost the comb.
00:39:08Forget it, Vern.
00:39:18Let's go.
00:39:48Oh, shit.
00:39:55Move it, man.
00:39:55Go on.
00:39:56Move it.
00:39:56Get up.
00:39:57Get up.
00:39:58Damn it.
00:39:59Get up.
00:40:00Move it.
00:40:02Shit.
00:40:03Get up.
00:40:04Get up.
00:40:04Come on.
00:40:05Come on.
00:40:06I'm a dirty fool.
00:40:08Damn it.
00:40:09Get up.
00:40:10Damn it.
00:40:10Get up.
00:40:12Go.
00:40:12Go.
00:40:13Go.
00:40:13Go.
00:40:15Go.
00:40:18Do it.
00:40:19Go.
00:40:19Go.
00:40:20I can't go.
00:40:21Go.
00:40:22I can't go.
00:40:27Go.
00:40:28Go.
00:40:28Go.
00:40:29Go.
00:40:34Go.
00:40:34Go.
00:40:35Go.
00:40:35Go.
00:40:35Keep your ass back!
00:40:37Go back!
00:40:39Go back!
00:40:41Go back!
00:40:43Go back!
00:40:45Go back!
00:41:05Yes.
00:41:09Hey, at least now we know when the next train was due.
00:41:21Man, that was the old-time train dodge.
00:41:25Too cool.
00:41:27Vern, you were so scared you looked like that fat guy, Abby Castello, when he saw the mummy.
00:41:31I wasn't that scared.
00:41:33Vern.
00:41:35No, really, I wasn't. Sincerely.
00:41:37Okay, then you won't mind if we check the seat of your jockeys for Hershey squids, will ya?
00:41:40Oh, screw.
00:41:41Hey, Vern, you better turn yours over.
00:41:43This is the way I like to do it.
00:41:45Fine.
00:41:46Aw, man!
00:41:47Come on, no, man. You gotta need more, Gordy.
00:41:50Sorry, Vern.
00:41:51It's not funny. What am I supposed to eat?
00:41:53Why'd you cook your dick?
00:41:55It'd be a small meal.
00:42:00Ah-ha! Screw you guys. I got it.
00:42:03Ha-ha!
00:42:18Nothing like a smoke after a meal.
00:42:20Yeah. I cherish these moments.
00:42:24What? What did I say?
00:42:34Hey, Gordo, why don't you tell us a story?
00:42:36Uh, I don't know.
00:42:38Oh, come on.
00:42:39Yeah, come on, Gordo.
00:42:40They're not one of your horror stories, okay?
00:42:42I don't wanna hear no horror stories.
00:42:44I'm not up for that, man.
00:42:46Why don't you tell us one about Sergeant Steele and his babbling leathernecks?
00:42:50Well, the one I've been thinking about's kind of different.
00:42:53It's about this pie-eating contest.
00:42:55And the main guy of the story is this fat kid that nobody likes named Davey Hogan.
00:43:00He's like Charlie Hogan's brother, if he had one.
00:43:03Good, Vern.
00:43:05Go on, Gordy.
00:43:07Well, this kid, he's our age.
00:43:09But he's fat.
00:43:10Real fat.
00:43:11He weighs close to 180.
00:43:14But, you know, it's not his fault.
00:43:15It's his glands.
00:43:16Oh, yeah.
00:43:17My cousin's like that.
00:43:18Sincerely.
00:43:19She weighs over 300 pounds.
00:43:21Supposed to be a high boy gland or something.
00:43:24I don't know about any high boy gland, but what a blimp.
00:43:27No shit.
00:43:28She looks like a Thanksgiving turkey.
00:43:30And you know this one time?
00:43:31Will you shut up, Vern?
00:43:32Yeah.
00:43:33Yeah.
00:43:34Right.
00:43:35Go on, Gordy.
00:43:36It's a small story.
00:43:37Well, all the kids, instead of calling him Davey, they call him Lardass.
00:43:41Lardass Hogan.
00:43:42Even his little brother and sister call him Lardass.
00:43:45At school, they put this sticker on his back that says, Wide Load.
00:43:49And they rank him out and beat him up whenever they get a chance.
00:43:53But one day he gets an idea.
00:43:56The greatest revenge idea a kid ever had.
00:44:02Is this thing on?
00:44:04Can you hear me?
00:44:05Now, the next contestant in the great tri-county pie-eat, Principal John Wiggins.
00:44:21And our celebrity contestant from KLIM in Portland, the boss man himself, Bob Cornell.
00:44:32Hey, from the Racks and Stacks, it's the best on wax.
00:44:36How about another double golden holy twin spin sound sandwich from KLIM in Portland?
00:44:40It's...
00:44:41Bob Cornell!
00:44:43A new cover to the pie-eat, but one we expect great things from in the future, young master David Hogan.
00:45:00Are you all right, young man?
00:45:02Hey, Lardass, how was your trip?
00:45:04I hear you got a big appetite, Lardass.
00:45:08Don't even think about winning this.
00:45:11Boy, are you fat.
00:45:13Don't pay any attention to those fools, Lardass.
00:45:17Davey.
00:45:18Uh-huh.
00:45:19BOOM!
00:45:20BABBA BOOM!
00:45:21BABBAB.
00:45:22BOOM!
00:45:23BABBA BOOM!
00:45:25And now, the one you've all been waiting for, the four-time champion, our own Bill Travis.
00:45:47Listen, I got ten riding on you myself, Billy boy.
00:45:52All right, are you ready?
00:45:53Hands behind your backs, gentlemen.
00:45:58Drum roll.
00:45:59Hey, lord ass, jow down, wide load.
00:46:06Go!
00:46:14Hey!
00:46:23You better brace yourself if you want to hold out, boy.
00:46:40Come on, lord ass!
00:46:43Lardß, lord ass, lord ass!
00:46:47Lardß, lord ass, lord ass, lardß, lord ass, lardß,ения!
00:46:51Lardß, lord ass, lord ass, lardß, lardß, lardß, lardß.
00:46:56What the audience didn't know was that Lard ass wasn't really interested in winning.
00:47:00What he wanted was revenge.
00:47:03And right before he was introduced, he'd gotten ready for it.
00:47:08Principal John Wiggins!
00:47:18And our celebrity contestant from KLAM in Portland,
00:47:23the boss man himself, Bob Cornell!
00:47:30Hey, from the Ratchet Stacks, it's the best on wax.
00:47:34How about another double golden golden twin spin downtown?
00:47:36We're from KLAM in Portland.
00:47:38It's done!
00:47:40Lardas! Lardas! Lardas! Lardas!
00:47:43Diving into his fifth pie,
00:47:45Lardas began to imagine that he wasn't eating pies.
00:47:48He pretended he was eating cow flops
00:47:50and rat guts and blueberry sauce.
00:47:52Lardas! Lardas! Lardas! Lardas! Lardas!
00:47:57Slowly, a sound started to build in Lardas' stomach.
00:48:03A strange and scary sound,
00:48:05like a log truck coming at you at 100 miles an hour.
00:48:09Suddenly, Lardas opened his mouth.
00:48:15And before Bill Travis knew it,
00:48:17he was covered with five pies worth of used blueberries.
00:48:21The women in the audience screamed.
00:48:23Boss man, Bob Cormier, took one look at Bill Travis
00:48:26and barfed on Principal Wiggins.
00:48:29Principal Wiggins barfed on a lumberjack
00:48:30that was sitting next to him.
00:48:31Mayor Grundy barfed on his wife's tits.
00:48:33But when the smell hit the crowd,
00:48:34that's when Lardas planned to be a man.
00:48:36He was a man.
00:48:37He was a man.
00:48:38He was a man.
00:48:39He was a man.
00:48:40He was a man.
00:48:41He was a man.
00:48:42He was a man.
00:48:43He was a man.
00:48:44He was a man.
00:48:45He was a man.
00:48:46He was a man.
00:48:47He was a man.
00:48:48But when the smell hit the crowd,
00:48:51that's when Lardas' plan really started to work.
00:48:54Girlfriends barfed on boyfriends.
00:48:56Kids barfed on their parents.
00:48:58A fat lady barfed in her purse.
00:49:00The Donnelly twins barfed on each other.
00:49:02And the women's auxiliary barfed
00:49:04all over the benevolent order of antelopes.
00:49:07And Lardas just sat back and enjoyed what he'd created.
00:49:11A complete and total barfarama.
00:49:18Oh, man, that was the best.
00:49:26Just the best.
00:49:27Yeah.
00:49:28Then what happened?
00:49:29What do you mean?
00:49:31I mean, what happened?
00:49:33What do you mean, what happened?
00:49:35That's the end.
00:49:36How can that be the end?
00:49:38What kind of an ending is that?
00:49:40What happened to Lardas?
00:49:41I don't know.
00:49:43Um, maybe he went home and celebrated with a couple of cheeseburgers.
00:49:47Geez.
00:49:48That ending sucks.
00:49:50Why don't you make it so that Lardas goes home and he shoots his father.
00:49:55Then he runs away and he joins the Texas Rangers.
00:49:58How about that?
00:49:59Uh, I don't know.
00:50:00Something good like that.
00:50:02I liked the ending.
00:50:03The barfing was really good.
00:50:04But there's one thing I couldn't understand.
00:50:09Did Lardas have to pay to get in the contest?
00:50:14No, Vern.
00:50:16They just let him in.
00:50:17Oh!
00:50:18Oh, great.
00:50:19Great story.
00:50:20Yeah, it's a great story, Cordy.
00:50:21I just didn't like the ending.
00:50:22Hey, Verno, where's the radio?
00:50:23Let's see if we can get some sounds.
00:50:24Here.
00:50:25We talked into the night.
00:50:38The kind of talk that seemed important until you discover girls.
00:50:42All right.
00:50:43All right.
00:50:44Mickey's a mouse.
00:50:45Donald's a duck.
00:50:47Pluto's a dog.
00:50:48What's Goofy?
00:50:50If I can only have one food for the rest of my life, that's easy.
00:50:55Pass.
00:50:56Cherry-flavored pass.
00:50:57No question about it.
00:50:59Goofy's a dog.
00:51:01He's definitely a dog.
00:51:03I knew the $64,000 question was fixed.
00:51:08There's no way anybody can know that much about opera.
00:51:11He can't be a dog.
00:51:13He wears a hat and drives a car.
00:51:16Wagon Train's a really cool show, but did you ever notice that they never get anywhere?
00:51:22They just keep wagon training.
00:51:25God, that's weird.
00:51:28What the hell is Goofy?
00:51:30Not one of us mentioned Ray Brower, but we were all thinking about him.
00:51:37Oh, my God.
00:51:43It's that Brower kid.
00:51:46His ghost's out walking in the woods.
00:51:48I promise I don't hawk no more dirty books.
00:51:53I promise I won't say no more bad squares.
00:51:55I promise I'll eat all my lima beans.
00:51:57What is it, Chris?
00:51:58Maybe it's coyotes.
00:51:59Sounds like a woman's screaming.
00:52:00It's not coyotes.
00:52:01It's just ghosts.
00:52:02Oh, don't say that.
00:52:03Hey, Teddy, sit down.
00:52:04I want to go look for it.
00:52:05I want to see the ghosts.
00:52:06Don't say that.
00:52:07I just want to see it.
00:52:08I just want to see what it will look for.
00:52:10I just want to see bald-headed, Chris.
00:52:12Maybe we should stand guard.
00:52:13Yeah, that's a good idea.
00:52:19Give me the gun.
00:52:20I'll take the first watch.
00:52:21Give me the gun.
00:52:22I'll take the first watch.
00:52:23I'll take the first watch.
00:52:26Oh, I got it.
00:52:28I'm not a cat.
00:52:30You're not a cat.
00:52:31I'm not a cat.
00:52:32I want to see what it will look for.
00:52:33Oh, Jesus.
00:52:34I'm bald-headed, Chris.
00:52:35Maybe we should stand guard.
00:52:36Yeah, that's a good idea.
00:52:38Give me the gun.
00:52:39I'll take the first watch.
00:52:422,300 hours, Corporal Teddy Duchamp stands guard.
00:53:03No sign of the enemy, the fort is secure.
00:53:06Shut up Teddy and keep your eyes peeled.
00:53:13Do-do-do...
00:53:17Do-do-do...
00:53:18Teddy, cut it out!
00:53:20Hey, go to sleep!
00:53:25The dog faces rested easy,
00:53:27and the knowledge that Corporal Teddy Duchamp
00:53:30was protecting all that was scared of them.
00:53:33Teddy.
00:53:42Let's go.
00:54:12Let's go.
00:54:42Should have been you, Gordon.
00:55:09Are you okay?
00:55:14You're dreaming?
00:55:17I didn't cry at Danny's funeral.
00:55:31I miss him, Chris.
00:55:38I really miss him.
00:55:41I know.
00:55:43Go back to sleep.
00:55:48I don't know.
00:56:10Maybe you could go into the college courses with me.
00:56:33That'll be the day.
00:56:35Why not? You're smart enough.
00:56:38They won't let me.
00:56:41What do you mean?
00:56:43It's the way that people think of my family in this town.
00:56:46It's the way they think of me.
00:56:48I'm just one of those low-life Chambers kids.
00:56:51That's not true.
00:56:53Oh, it is.
00:56:55No one even asked me if I took the milk money that time.
00:56:59I just got a three-day vacation.
00:57:07Did you take it?
00:57:08Yeah, I took it.
00:57:09You knew I took it.
00:57:12Teddy knew I took it.
00:57:14Everyone knew I took it.
00:57:16Even Vern knew it, I think.
00:57:23Maybe I was sorry and I tried to give it back.
00:57:26You tried to give it back?
00:57:28Maybe.
00:57:29Just maybe.
00:57:30Maybe.
00:57:30And maybe I took it to old lady Simons and told her and the money was all there.
00:57:35But I still got a three-day vacation because it never showed up.
00:57:40And maybe the next week old lady Simons had this brand new cigarette on when she came to school.
00:57:45Yeah.
00:57:46Yeah, it was brown and had dots on it.
00:57:48Yeah.
00:57:49So let's just say that I stole the milk money, but old lady Simons stole it back from me.
00:57:55Just suppose that I told the story.
00:57:58Me, Chris Chambers, kid brother to eyeball Chambers.
00:58:00Did you think that anyone would have believed it?
00:58:03No.
00:58:04And do you think that that bitch would have dared tried something like that if it had been one of those douchebags from up on the view if they had taken the money?
00:58:10No way.
00:58:11I don't know.
00:58:12No, but with me?
00:58:17Well, I'm sure she had her eye on that skirt for a long time.
00:58:23Anyway, she saw her chance and she took it.
00:58:27I was the stupid one for even trying to give it back.
00:58:36I just never thought...
00:58:39I never thought a teacher would be the fuck anyway.
00:58:55I just wish that I could go someplace where nobody knows me.
00:59:09I guess I'm just a pussy or...
00:59:16Yeah.
00:59:16I'm afraid.
00:59:17Kirk.
00:59:18K-K-K-K.
00:59:39Let's go.
01:00:05The freight woke up the other guys, and it was on the tip of my tongue to tell them
01:00:08about the deer, but I didn't.
01:00:11That was the one thing I kept to myself.
01:00:14I've never spoken or written of it until just now.
01:00:25Geez, Gordy.
01:00:26Why couldn't you get some breakfast stuff like, uh, Twinkies and Pez and root beer?
01:00:31Sorry, Vern.
01:00:33I guess a more experienced shopper could have gotten more for your seven cents.
01:00:38With our stomachs rumbling, we pressed on toward the Royal River.
01:00:42The reality of Ray Brower was growing and kept us moving despite the heat.
01:00:48For me, the idea of seeing that kid's dead body was starting to become an obsession.
01:00:53I think we should stick to the tracks.
01:00:54I say we go across the field.
01:00:55Gordy?
01:00:56I think we should stick to the tracks.
01:00:57I say we go across the field.
01:00:58Gordy?
01:00:59Yeah.
01:01:00Let's go.
01:01:01Let's go.
01:01:02Jake, no prisoners!
01:01:03Hey, you guys!
01:01:04Let's go.
01:01:05Let's go.
01:01:06Gentlemen.
01:01:07The Royal.
01:01:08God.
01:01:09Tracks go way out of the way.
01:01:10If we cut across this field right here, we'll be there in an hour.
01:01:16Let's go.
01:01:17Let's go.
01:01:18Let's go.
01:01:19Let's go.
01:01:20Hey, you guys!
01:01:21It's a lot safer if we, uh...
01:01:22Come on, men!
01:01:23Let's take us!
01:01:24You don't know what's in those woods!
01:01:26Hey, you guys!
01:01:27Wait up for me!
01:01:28Hey, you guys, it's a lot safer if we, uh...
01:01:35You don't know what's in those woods.
01:01:41Hey, you guys, wait up for me.
01:01:50Ace, I gotta tell you something.
01:01:52You gotta swear on your mother's good name.
01:01:54You gotta swear on your mother's good name that you won't tell anybody.
01:01:58You got it, pal.
01:02:03Hey, Eyeball, you know that brown kid? What about him?
01:02:07Well, I could tell you something about him, but you gotta swear on your mother's good name...
01:02:11...you ain't gonna tell nobody.
01:02:13Billy and Charlie had managed to keep their enormous secret for about 36 hours.
01:02:17A personal record for both of them.
01:02:19By noon, Ace and Eyeball had told their secret to everybody in the gang.
01:02:23I guess for those guys, protecting their mother's good name wasn't the top priority.
01:02:28Hey, listen, Ace, um...
01:02:30Maybe me and Charlie shouldn't go.
01:02:32Yeah, maybe you can go without us, huh?
01:02:34You guys were acting like my grandmother having a conniption fit.
01:02:38I don't see your problem.
01:02:40We go up with a whole bunch of fishing gear, and if a cop asks us what we're doing there...
01:02:43...we're just here to take a couple steelhead out of the river.
01:02:46And look what we found.
01:02:48Yeah, come on, man. We're gonna be famous.
01:02:51We're gonna be on every radio and TV show in the country.
01:02:54I still don't think we should go.
01:02:56Okay. Okay.
01:02:59You've stated your position clearly.
01:03:01Now I'm gonna state mine.
01:03:04Get in the fucking car. Now! Let's go.
01:03:07Let's go.
01:03:22I hate this shortcut.
01:03:23I hate this shortcut.
01:03:27You flinched!
01:03:29Too for flinching!
01:03:34But you flinched.
01:03:36I know. Too for flinching.
01:03:59How are we supposed to get across this?
01:04:01We'll use you as a raft.
01:04:02Very funny.
01:04:14Hey, you know, it's not that deep. You can walk across.
01:04:17I told you we should've stuck to the tracks.
01:04:32Is it me, or are you the world's biggest pussy?
01:04:36I suppose this is fun for you.
01:04:38No, but this is...
01:04:42Hey, come on, come on!
01:04:43Stop that, come on!
01:04:45Come on, Teddy. Ask your age.
01:04:47This is my age.
01:04:48I'm in the prime of my youth, and I'll only be young once.
01:04:51Yeah, but you're gonna be stupid for the rest of your life.
01:04:54Oh, Rico!
01:04:55Uh-oh.
01:04:56You just signed your own death warrant.
01:04:58Rico, Rico.
01:04:59You die, Chambers!
01:05:03Hey, you get off me.
01:05:04Get him! Get back!
01:05:06Ah-ha-ha!
01:05:07First time he'll die.
01:05:08Come on, Teddy, you're gonna die!
01:05:10Oh, please!
01:05:11Hey, what do you think it's all a chance?
01:05:15Yeah, a chance.
01:05:17Come on, you guys.
01:05:18Fire!
01:05:19Fire!
01:05:20Fire!
01:05:21Come on, you guys!
01:05:22Come on and do this!
01:05:23Fire!
01:05:24Fire!
01:05:25Fire!
01:05:26Fire!
01:05:27Fire!
01:05:28Sleeper hold!
01:05:29Sleeper hold!
01:05:30Stop it, I'm serious!
01:05:31No one gets out of the sleeper hold!
01:05:32Vern, Vern, there's something on your neck.
01:05:34Yeah, right.
01:05:35I'm not falling for that one a chance.
01:05:37No, Vern.
01:05:38There is something on your neck.
01:05:39It's a leech.
01:05:40Leech!
01:05:41Oh, my God!
01:05:42Oh, my God!
01:05:43Oh, my God!
01:05:44Oh, my God!
01:05:45Oh, my God!
01:05:46Oh, my God!
01:05:47Oh, my God!
01:05:48Oh, my God!
01:05:49Oh, my God!
01:05:50Jesus Christ!
01:05:51Oh, my God!
01:05:52Oh, my God!
01:05:53Oh, my God!
01:05:54Oh, my God!
01:05:55Oh, my God!
01:05:56Oh, my God!
01:05:57Get him off!
01:05:58All right!
01:05:59Lay off me!
01:06:00I'm done!
01:06:01Hey, Cordy, man, there's some on your back.
01:06:03Get him off!
01:06:04Oh, my God!
01:06:05Get him off!
01:06:06Get him off!
01:06:07Get him off!
01:06:08They're on your back!
01:06:09Heather, are you on mine, man?
01:06:28Oh, Chris.
01:06:30Oh, shit, Chris.
01:06:32Oh, shit, man.
01:06:33Oh, shit, man.
01:06:34Oh, shit, man.
01:06:35Oh, shit, man.
01:06:36Oh, shit, man, God.
01:06:40Oh, shit, man!
01:06:49Oh, shit, man.
01:06:52Oh, shit, man!
01:06:54Oh, shit!
01:06:56Oh, shit, man!
01:06:56Oh, shit!
01:06:56Oh, shit.
01:06:58Oh, shit.
01:06:59That'sровder.
01:07:00So, to the end of the year we wen with their valor..
01:07:03Okay. Gordy, are you there?
01:07:06Maybe he's dead.
01:07:07He's not dead. He's still breathing, you idiot.
01:07:09Well, I don't know.
01:07:10Hey, hey, hey. I'm just cool, you guys.
01:07:12You just fainted.
01:07:14Gordy?
01:07:17God, I've never met anybody who fainted before.
01:07:22Maybe he made a bad mistake and looked at your face.
01:07:25Shut up, Teddy.
01:07:27You okay, Gordy?
01:07:30Yeah, let's go.
01:07:33Maybe we should take Gordy back.
01:07:39Oh, great, Chambers. Now you're turning pussy, too.
01:07:42What's your problem with the champ?
01:07:44He had a leech hanging from his balls. He fainted.
01:07:46What are you, his mother?
01:07:47Eat shit.
01:07:48You eat shit.
01:07:49Hey, hey, hey.
01:07:50I think Chris is right. Let's go back.
01:07:52Oh, what a surprise.
01:07:55The king of the pussies wants to go back, too.
01:07:57Stop calling me that.
01:07:58What, pussy?
01:07:58Stop it.
01:07:59Pussy?
01:07:59Stop, pussy, pussy, pussy, pussy.
01:08:01You four-eyed psycho.
01:08:03Get out of me.
01:08:04Out.
01:08:04Shit.
01:08:05Hey.
01:08:05Two more flinching.
01:08:06You like it?
01:08:07You like it?
01:08:07Two more flinching.
01:08:08Two more flinching.
01:08:08You like it?
01:08:09What, Teddy?
01:08:09You like it?
01:08:10Break it up, bitch.
01:08:11Break it up.
01:08:12Stop it!
01:08:22I'm not going back.
01:08:23Idiot.
01:08:29Shut up, retard.
01:08:36At the time, I didn't know why I needed to see that body so badly.
01:08:40Even if no one had followed me, I would have gone on alone.
01:08:43Take out the papers and the trash, or you don't get those pitting cans.
01:08:56No way, Ace.
01:08:58Not this time, man.
01:08:59No way.
01:09:00Go for it, Vince.
01:09:01Go for it.
01:09:02Oh, yeah?
01:09:02Oh, God, I got him.
01:09:15I got him.
01:09:17Don't go, Dave.
01:09:17You're the Henry guy.
01:09:19Henry.
01:09:20Fall back, Ace.
01:09:21Come on.
01:09:22Don't fuck around.
01:09:22Jesus Christ, Ace.
01:09:28Fall back, man.
01:09:29What are you doing?
01:09:29Come on, man.
01:09:30Don't fuck around.
01:09:31Take it.
01:09:33Hey, Ace.
01:09:33Fall back, man.
01:09:35Die.
01:09:46Shit, man.
01:09:47Shit.
01:09:48I won.
01:09:48Let him beat you, you cock-knocker.
01:10:03Coming through the woods, I bet we saved over an hour.
01:10:09Teddy?
01:10:10Yeah?
01:10:12Miss the back, Harlow Road?
01:10:15Yeah.
01:10:16Broward kid must be around here someplace.
01:10:19Teddy, you and Vern watch the left side of the tracks.
01:10:22We'll take the right.
01:10:23All right.
01:10:38There he is!
01:10:38I see him!
01:10:39Look!
01:10:40Look, over there!
01:10:41I see him!
01:10:41I see him!
01:10:42None of us could breathe.
01:10:47Somewhere under those bushes was the rest of Ray Brower.
01:11:03The train had knocked Ray Brower out of his keds,
01:11:06just like it had knocked the life out of his body.
01:11:09Jesus.
01:11:09Jesus.
01:11:12The kid wasn't sick.
01:11:14The kid wasn't sleeping.
01:11:17The kid was dead.
01:11:34Let's look for some long branches.
01:11:36We'll build them a stretcher.
01:11:37Gordy?
01:12:00Why did you have to die?
01:12:03What's the matter with Gordy?
01:12:05Nothing.
01:12:06Why don't you guys just go over there and look for some branches, okay?
01:12:09Okay.
01:12:22Why did he have to die, Chris?
01:12:25Why did Denny have to die?
01:12:27I don't know.
01:12:27It should have been me.
01:12:28Don't say that.
01:12:29It should have been me.
01:12:30Don't say that.
01:12:31It should have been me.
01:12:32Don't say that, man.
01:12:33I'm no good.
01:12:34My dad said it.
01:12:35I'm no good.
01:12:36He doesn't know you.
01:12:37He hates me.
01:12:38He doesn't hate you.
01:12:39He hates me.
01:12:40He doesn't hate you.
01:12:41He hates me.
01:12:42No.
01:12:43He just doesn't know you.
01:12:44He hates me.
01:12:45He hates me.
01:12:46He doesn't hate you.
01:12:47He hates me.
01:12:48He doesn't hate you.
01:12:49He hates me.
01:12:50No.
01:12:51He just doesn't know you.
01:12:52No.
01:12:53No.
01:12:54He just doesn't know you.
01:12:55He hates me.
01:12:56My dad hates me.
01:12:57He hates me.
01:12:59He hates me, oh God.
01:13:22You're going to be a great writer someday, Gordy.
01:13:29You might even write about us guys if we ever get hard up for material.
01:13:52I guess I'd have to be pretty hard up, huh?
01:13:57Yeah.
01:14:02What the fuck do you know about this?
01:14:05Some bitch. My little brother.
01:14:10You wasn't planning on taking the body from us, was you, boys?
01:14:16You get away, man. We found him. We got dibs.
01:14:19Oh, we'd better start running, Eyeball. They got dibs.
01:14:23We earned him, man. You guys came in a car. That's not fair. He's ours.
01:14:27That's not fair. He's ours. Well, not anymore.
01:14:31There's four of us, Eyeball. You just make your move.
01:14:34Oh, we will. Don't you worry.
01:14:41Fern, you little son of a whore. You wasn't in the porch.
01:14:45No. No, I swear. It wasn't me.
01:14:47You little keyhole peeping bung wife. I'm gonna be delivering shit out of you.
01:14:58You guys have two choices.
01:15:01You either leave quietly, and we take the body.
01:15:04Or you stay, you beat the shit out of you, and we take the body.
01:15:09Besides, me and Billy found him first.
01:15:11Yeah. Vern told us how you found him.
01:15:13Oh, Billy. I wish we never boosted that car.
01:15:16Oh, Billy. I think I just turned my fruit of the looms into a fudge factory.
01:15:20That's it. Your ass is grass. Hold it.
01:15:27Okay, Chambers, you little faggot. This is your last chance.
01:15:30What do you say, kid?
01:15:35Why don't you go home and fuck your mother some more?
01:15:43You're dead.
01:15:45Come on, Chris. It's split.
01:15:47They're not taking him.
01:15:48Come on, man. This is crazy.
01:15:49They're not taking him.
01:15:50He's got a knife.
01:15:51Ace, come on, man.
01:16:00You're gonna have to kill me, Ace.
01:16:02No problem.
01:16:17You're not taking him. Nobody's taking him.
01:16:22Come on, kid. Just give me the gun before you take your foot off.
01:16:27You ain't got the sack to shoot a woodchuck.
01:16:31Don't move, Ace.
01:16:34I'll kill you, I swear to God.
01:16:39Come on, Lachance. Give me the gun.
01:16:44You must have at least some of your brother's good sense.
01:16:51Suck my fat one, you cheap dime store hood.
01:17:03What are you gonna do, shoot us all?
01:17:05No, Ace. Just you.
01:17:07Just you.
01:17:18We're gonna get you for this.
01:17:21Maybe you will and maybe you won't.
01:17:23Oh, we will.
01:17:37We're not gonna forget this if that's what you're thinking.
01:17:42This is big time, baby.
01:17:43Suck my fat one.
01:17:44Who ever told you you had a fat one with a chance?
01:17:48Biggest one in four counties.
01:17:49Yeah.
01:17:50Yeah.
01:17:51Biggest one in four counties.
01:17:52Yeah.
01:17:54.
01:17:5412ке douglers, a big one in four counties.
01:18:00What?
01:18:01Some little too, crew member.
01:18:02Who ever told you you had a fat one with a chance?
01:18:08Biggest one in four counties?
01:18:10Yeah.
01:18:12It's good.
01:18:16I guess you'd-
01:18:18You guess you'd buy any more seats,
01:18:19We're going to take him.
01:18:31No.
01:18:33But we came all this way.
01:18:36We were supposed to be heroes.
01:18:40Not this way, Teddy.
01:18:45Chris.
01:18:46Give me your hand.
01:18:50Ray Brower's body was found, but neither our gang nor their gang got the credit.
01:18:56In the end, we decided that an anonymous phone call was the best thing to do.
01:19:06We headed home, and although many thoughts raced through our minds, we barely spoke.
01:19:11We walked through the night and made it back to Castle Rock a little past five o'clock on Sunday morning, the day before Labor Day.
01:19:23We'd only been gone two days, but somehow the town seemed different, smaller.
01:19:30Well, see you in school.
01:19:51Oh, yeah.
01:19:54Yeah.
01:19:55See you in junior high.
01:19:56Penny!

01:20:32Penny!
01:20:33Let me get home if my mom puts me on Temmu's습 wanting list.
01:20:35Hey, Chris?
01:20:36No hard feelings, okay?
01:20:38No way, ma'am.
01:20:40As time went on, we saw less and less of Teddy and Vern, until eventually they became
01:21:10just two more faces in the halls.
01:21:12It happens sometimes.
01:21:15Friends come in and out of your life like busboys in a restaurant.
01:21:18I heard that Vern got married out of high school, had four kids, and is now the forklift
01:21:23operator at the Arseneau Lumberyard.
01:21:26Teddy tried several times to get into the army, but his eyes and his ear kept him out.
01:21:31Last I'd heard, he'd spent some time in jail, and was now doing odd jobs around Castle Rock.
01:21:40I'm never going to get out of this town, am I gory?
01:21:47You can do anything you want, man.
01:21:53Yeah.
01:21:54Sure.
01:21:55Give me some skin.
01:22:05I'll see you, not if I see you first.
01:22:23Chris did get out.
01:22:25He enrolled in the college courses with me, and although it was hard, he gutted it out
01:22:29like he always did.
01:22:31He went on to college and eventually became a lawyer.
01:22:35Last week, he entered a fast food restaurant.
01:22:38Just ahead of him, two men got into an argument.
01:22:41One of them pulled a knife.
01:22:43Chris, who had always made the best piece, tried to break it up.
01:22:47He was stabbed in the throat.
01:22:49He died almost instantly.
01:23:10Dad, can we go now?
01:23:12You ready?
01:23:13Yeah, we've been ready for an hour.
01:23:19Okay, I'll be right there.

01:23:23Yeah, my dad's weird.
01:23:24He gets like that when he's writing.
01:23:27They're like, I'm trying to make a filming day.
