00:00:00What the hell is this?
00:00:17So smooth.
00:00:24That tastes real good.
00:00:27Tasty.
00:00:28Sweet.
00:00:28Harry, what are you doing down there?
00:00:30Taking a leak?
00:00:32No.
00:00:33Want a story for you?
00:00:35Um, no, no, no.
00:00:37You guys go ahead.
00:00:38I'll catch up to you later.
00:00:42And I'll be done.
00:00:45Whatever that could be.
00:00:47It's mighty good.
00:00:51Harry, what are you doing?
00:00:53Eating snow?
00:00:54You out of your head, buddy.
00:00:55If this is snow, try it.
00:00:57Watch this, you'll find that.
00:00:58No, no, I don't need snow.
00:01:00Come on, give it a try.
00:01:01That's not snow.
00:01:02Try it.
00:01:07Eh?
00:01:08What the hell is it?
00:01:11You know, if this stuff keeps bubbling out of the ground like this,
00:01:14there might be enough of it here that we could sell to people.
00:01:17Ow!
00:01:18Oh, my God, I'm being eaten alive.
00:01:36Oh, my God, I'm being eaten alive.
00:01:38I'm burning hot.
00:01:47I'm burning hot.
00:02:55You scared me.
00:02:58You shouldn't be walking around here like this.
00:03:00What are you doing down here?
00:03:01I thought you were a burglar or something.
00:03:03I was hungry.
00:03:05You were hungry?
00:03:07Did you see?
00:03:09See what?
00:03:11It...
00:03:13What's the matter with you anyway?
00:03:16It was moving.
00:03:18You listen to me, young man.
00:03:21You get your butt back upstairs to bed, you understand?
00:03:23Don't ever pull this on me again.
00:03:24Now move!
00:03:26You're hungry.
00:03:27You don't do that.
00:03:28But, I'll be hungry.
00:03:29Why?
00:03:30You're hungry.
00:03:32I don't want to die.
00:03:33When I was a little girl,
00:03:58I didn't think there was anything that I liked better than ice cream.
00:04:03Now I'm a big girl, and I've decided there's something I like better, much better.
00:04:11It's called a stuff.
00:04:13And believe me, enough is never enough.
00:04:20A month ago, they acquired the chocolate chip Charlie chain of outlets on the West Coast
00:04:32with the intention of converting them and being in business in 60 days.
00:04:37After that, they'll go national.
00:04:39I wish to hell we knew how they make it.
00:04:42Yeah, we could copy it.
00:04:43What I meant to say is we could improve on it.
00:04:47Apparently, we've had no luck in analyzing the ingredients
00:04:51and no luck in getting close to anybody inside the company.
00:04:54That's why I've asked Mo Rutherford to come here today.
00:04:57Look, are you sure we want to get mixed up with industrial spies?
00:05:02Hey, look, I want results and he's the best there is.
00:05:05And it's men like Mo Rutherford that help us stay in business.
00:05:08Yes, I suppose we do have to keep the world safe for ice cream.
00:05:14Hey, didn't you used to be with the Bureau?
00:05:16Yeah, well, at least I didn't get my ass kicked out like you did.
00:05:20Oh, yeah, yeah.
00:05:22I missed out on Ab Scam, DeLorean, all the good times.
00:05:25Yeah, well, just follow me, Archot.
00:05:27Let's see if you're worth your money.
00:05:33Oh, this is some place you got here, fellas.
00:05:36Gosh, let me, uh, that's a sweaty palm.
00:05:39That's two sweaty palms.
00:05:41Let me feel.
00:05:42Ah, that's another sweaty palm.
00:05:44Yes, sir, hello, sweaty palms.
00:05:46How do you do?
00:05:48So tell me about the stuff.
00:05:50Now, look, you've been brief on this problem.
00:05:52Well, not completely.
00:05:54I don't understand why you didn't go to the Food and Drug Administration.
00:05:57Well, for one reason or another, right after it was approved,
00:06:01most of those involved resigned.
00:06:04They're either out of the country or on vacation.
00:06:07Or they had been, uh, paid off.
00:06:09That is the American way, you know.
00:06:11We've never had so much trouble getting information out of a company.
00:06:14Oh, don't you worry about that.
00:06:16Every stone wall has a chink in it.
00:06:18And, uh, I'll get inside there.
00:06:20I'll penetrate the company.
00:06:21I'll do some damage.
00:06:22But it's going to be expensive, believe me.
00:06:24Hey, look.
00:06:25We don't want to know how you do it.
00:06:27Just, uh, do it.
00:06:29I don't know.
00:06:30I understand.
00:06:31You guys don't like me.
00:06:32Uh, heard it on the tap there.
00:06:34Uh, someone said I've been fired from the FBI.
00:06:36And then I've been, uh, blackballed.
00:06:38And then I was obscene.
00:06:40Uh, someone here said I was obscene.
00:06:42Somebody here.
00:06:43Who said I was obscene?
00:06:44How the hell did you know that?
00:06:46Well, while you were at the Metropolitan Opera last night,
00:06:49I just happened to be walking through your hotel room.
00:06:52And I dropped this in your pocket.
00:06:55Huh.
00:06:57Oh, shit.
00:07:04Well, I'll be a son of a bitch.
00:07:07You know, Mr, uh...
00:07:10Rutherford, Mo Rutherford.
00:07:11You know why they call me Mo?
00:07:13No, why?
00:07:14Because every time people give me money, I always want Mo.
00:07:17Well, you know, Mr. Rutherford?
00:07:19Yes, sir?
00:07:20I don't think you're quite as dumb as you appear to be.
00:07:24No one is as dumb as I appear to be.
00:07:29Now, as I understand it,
00:07:31there is a certified check waiting for me with my name on it.
00:07:35I think the gentleman there.
00:07:36Oh, this fellow here.
00:07:38Oh, yes, look at that.
00:07:39Okay, yeah.
00:07:41Oh, that's good enough for starters.
00:07:43Asshole.
00:07:44Uh, when you talk to the FBI, would you tell him this for me?
00:07:49Oh!
00:07:50Oh, his jaw.
00:07:52Ah, help.
00:07:53Uh, thanks for the job, gentlemen.
00:07:57Will you go up and tell your brother to get on down here?
00:08:00Oh, come on.
00:08:01My cereal's gonna get soggy.
00:08:02I'll get him when I'm done.
00:08:03Do as I tell you and do it now.
00:08:04All right.
00:08:05Maybe his alarm didn't go off.
00:08:06Yeah, well, he was up running around in the middle of the night, no wonder he's exhausted.
00:08:10You tell him he's not missing school today, I don't care what his excuse is.
00:08:23Hi.
00:08:24There he is.
00:08:25Well, what do you want for breakfast?
00:08:26Nothing.
00:08:27I'll scramble a few over easy for you.
00:08:28Well, uh, my stomach doesn't really feel too good.
00:08:29Yeah, well, it sure felt good at 4 o'clock this morning.
00:08:30Listen, young man, you've missed three days of school already.
00:08:33I don't want you missing any more, you understand?
00:08:34I don't know what your plans are today, but you're not about to miss any more days.
00:08:36May I have some that I'll finish with my cereal?
00:08:37Sure.
00:08:38Good for you.
00:08:39No.
00:08:40Don't eat that.
00:08:41There's nothing wrong with it.
00:08:42I had some last night.
00:08:43I had some last night.
00:08:44I had some last night.
00:08:45Good for you.
00:08:46I had some last night.
00:08:47I had some.
00:08:48I had some last night.
00:08:49I had some last night.
00:08:50I had some, I had some last night.
00:08:57Well, I had some last night.
00:09:02I'm telling you, it isn't good. It's spoiled.
00:09:07It doesn't taste well to me.
00:09:14Here, you taste it and tell me if you think it's spoiled.
00:09:17I don't want to.
00:09:20Look, it moves around all by itself.
00:09:25It moves.
00:09:28I saw it moving in the refrigerator.
00:09:31Hey, freak, what do you want, anyway?
00:09:36Jason! You come back here!
00:09:40You know, I hope these days come out.
00:09:42What the hell's the matter with that boy, anyway?
00:09:44Look at that. Not a spot.
00:09:46Low in calories, good tasting, and it doesn't even spot.
00:09:50And he doesn't like it.
00:09:56Nothing like it around.
00:09:58Coupled with benign bacteria?
00:10:00It was probably just a lucky accident that tasted great.
00:10:03They seem to reproduce this accident in great quantities.
00:10:06Well, that's what I don't understand.
00:10:08I thought there was some government regulation that requires them to reveal the contents.
00:10:12They're protected by the FDA statute of identities rule.
00:10:16The same law protects Coca-Cola, secret formula for their syrup.
00:10:22Gentlemen, the little lady entering the room now is doing some undercover research for me.
00:10:28Because, folks, if we're gonna find out secret formula stuff, we're gonna have to steal it.
00:10:33A little faster pace, okay? Let's get a little movement into this.
00:10:39Step, step, let's see the bathing suit.
00:10:41Okay, I want wonderful smiles.
00:10:43You've got that, Happy? Is it good?
00:10:45Yeah.
00:10:46Okay.
00:10:47Now I want you to feed each other the stuff, both with nice smiles on your face.
00:10:56Pearl and Kathy.
00:10:59Get a slightly tighter shot of them when we do it, all right?
00:11:02Can I move in?
00:11:03Just a little bit, yeah. As they come forward, you move in a little.
00:11:05Good, Happy. You all right? Can you get it?
00:11:10Go in for a close-up of the faces of the next two, because they're real beauties.
00:11:14Now take a bite. Let me see how much you love it!
00:11:16Ooh, thanks.
00:11:18Very good. Thanks, girl.
00:11:20Okay, Christine. By yourself.
00:11:23Right on the lens. Right to the lens. Right here.
00:11:26Very good. Now I'm gonna want you to go in for a tight close-up as she feeds the camera.
00:11:31What are you doing?
00:11:32Are you out of your mind?
00:11:35Who the hell are you?
00:11:37I gotta talk to Miss Kendall about her employment and about this job and everything.
00:11:41So you all can break, Hoppy. You can take off with that.
00:11:44Kill the lights and the sound. You got that? Okay.
00:11:48Now, I'm sorry to interrupt you like that, but I can't wait in line.
00:11:51I can tell right now that you're not the type of person to wait in line either, are you?
00:11:55I mean, you didn't get where you are now about waiting in line, did you?
00:11:59How do you know that story?
00:12:00Well, I know that story, because that's the way I got where I am and where I am today.
00:12:05And here I am with you, and you're awful pretty.
00:12:08David Rutherford?
00:12:09Moe. My friends call me Moe. They call me Moe because every time they give me something, I always want Moe.
00:12:18And I suppose you wonder what I want out of you?
00:12:21Yes, I'd like to know what this is all about.
00:12:24I want to put you on our public relations campaign, but I need you not just to raise the image.
00:12:31You've got to convince the public that Lehigh Petroleum has the public's interest at heart.
00:12:38Oh, but why me?
00:12:42Well, I mean, look what you did for the stuff.
00:12:46You invented the name, as I understand it.
00:12:48Oh, yes, absolutely.
00:12:49And you created the image and put the whole sales pitch together.
00:12:53That's why I don't have a lot of time for petroleum companies, you know?
00:12:56Well, now, darling, I'm not here to hire your agency to work for us.
00:12:59I want to buy your agency and put you in charge.
00:13:04Oh, oh, um, you want to buy the agency and make...
00:13:08That clarifies things. Will you just, um, sit right there just one second?
00:13:12Mitzi?
00:13:14Mitzi?
00:13:17I want you to check out this guy on the card thoroughly and then get back to me.
00:13:21I want you to cancel my dinner date, and I want you to go get me a dress tour.
00:13:24No problem. Right away, Miss Kim.
00:13:29So, you were saying...
00:13:33I do like to see a woman with a decision.
00:13:37Pick your favorite restaurant.
00:13:40Mmm, where are you staying?
00:13:43Sherry Netherlands.
00:13:45Do they have room service at the Sherry Netherlands?
00:13:48My limousine's just outside.
00:13:54So is mine.
00:13:56I bet mine's bigger than yours.
00:13:57I bet mine's bigger than yours.
00:13:59What the hell is no such thing?
00:14:00What the hell is no such thing?
00:14:01I don't know.
00:14:02I don't know.
00:14:03They'll be in charge for her.
00:14:04Ha ha ha!
00:14:05Ha ha ha!
00:14:15Hey, give me that.
00:14:17Hey! Give me that pack!
00:14:18Hey, give me that.
00:14:22Hey, give me that pack!
00:14:23One, three, five, you go!
00:14:48Oh, shit.
00:15:18Look at all my cattle!
00:15:20He's gonna kill you!
00:15:21He's gonna kill you all!
00:15:46Hello, Mr. Beckers.
00:15:47I called you about an appointment.
00:15:50Oh, sure. The man from Consumer Magazine?
00:15:52Oh, that's right.
00:15:53Well, come on.
00:16:05Is he friendly?
00:16:07He's absolutely harmless.
00:16:08How old is he?
00:16:10One year.
00:16:11One year old?
00:16:12He's awful big.
00:16:13I feed him very well.
00:16:15Can I get you a drink?
00:16:16Oh, no, thanks.
00:16:17I'm off that now.
00:16:18Well, glad to hear that.
00:16:19Liquor can't kill you.
00:16:20Don't be outlawed.
00:16:23Uh, Mr. Beckers, how long have you been with the Food and Drug Administration?
00:16:29Almost 19 years.
00:16:32Yeah, pretty soon they'll be retiring, eh?
00:16:38And as I understand it, you were, uh, part of the team that tested and approved a product called The Stuff.
00:16:44Oh, they didn't have a name for it then.
00:16:46But they showed merchandise the hell out of it, but we all agreed it's a good product.
00:16:50How long was it tested before you approved it?
00:16:53You've gotta understand that this is a dessert, not a prescription medicine.
00:17:01Not any different from yogurt or ice cream.
00:17:04Hey, what's in the stuff?
00:17:05I mean, what's it made out of?
00:17:07How's it made?
00:17:12What was your name again?
00:17:13Rutherford?
00:17:14Rutherford.
00:17:15Moe Rutherford.
00:17:16See, I hope, well, look, I hope you're not gonna tell me now that there's been some trouble.
00:17:21I mean, someone's allergic to it.
00:17:23Well, that would upset you, wouldn't it?
00:17:25Look, all we can do is look, uh, for something common to most people.
00:17:30Now, if there is no reason to forbid the use of a product, then we have to okay it.
00:17:37And, and in this case, uh, it was, in this case, it was a pleasure.
00:17:42It was an absolute pleasure because I love it. I love it.
00:17:44Oh, well, you eat the stuff?
00:17:46Well, all the time. I feed it to Ben. Ben has some.
00:17:50You feed the dogs?
00:17:51Absolutely. Ben eats it all the time. Right, Ben?
00:17:55Well, I, I, I suppose if, uh, both of you eat it, it's, it's, it's gotta be all right.
00:18:00It's, it's really good.
00:18:03Well, I understand that you're not actually a chemist, Mr. Rickers.
00:18:07No, no, I, I'm an administrator, but, uh, but I can give you the names of some of the people on the panel.
00:18:13Oh, well, I tried that already, and for some strange reason, they're all out of the country or they're deceased.
00:18:19What a shame.
00:18:21Yeah.
00:18:24Say, uh, where did you test the stuff?
00:18:27Stater.
00:18:28Stater, Virginia?
00:18:29I still have some old preliminary worksheets at my office upstairs. Maybe you should look at them. Nothing, nothing, nothing confidential.
00:18:35I'd appreciate that. You know, and I'll Xerox them and send them right back to you.
00:18:38You know, you're lucky. I never throw anything away.
00:18:51Why is your master afraid of you, huh?
00:18:53Are you hungry? Want to get something to eat? Come on, let's go in the kitchen.
00:19:02Oh, I'm sorry. I should have offered you a cup of coffee or a nice soft drink.
00:19:19Well, I-I felt like a glass of water, but I'm not thirsty anymore.
00:19:21Yeah, these are some of my old documents, just a lot of old names.
00:19:25Yeah, well, thanks very much. I appreciate it.
00:19:28It's my pleasure.
00:19:30I'll, uh, get copies to this as soon as possible.
00:19:39Take your time.
00:19:40Yeah.
00:19:41Bye, Ben.
00:19:48You've been a good boy, Ben.
00:19:50I've got a tree for you.
00:19:52In fact, I have a tree for both of us.
00:19:55We deserve it, don't we?
00:20:00No!
00:20:172.30 A.M., they still keep coming.
00:20:19I don't know.
00:20:49Ben! No, Ben!
00:20:52I'll buy more!
00:20:55No, Ben!
00:21:19Okay, I'm coming, I'm coming.
00:21:28What can I do for you?
00:21:30Fill her up.
00:21:31Fill her up.
00:21:34Uh, there's nice clean restrooms out there if you want to.
00:21:39I must have taken the wrong turnoff here somewhere.
00:21:42This is Stater, isn't it?
00:21:44Yes, it is.
00:21:46Yeah, I guess I know somebody here.
00:21:47I can't remember his name.
00:21:49Melville.
00:21:51You mean old Harold.
00:21:52He moved out.
00:21:53They're just about all moving out of here.
00:21:56There's nobody here but you?
00:21:58Well, don't you want to wash your hands or something?
00:22:00I put in a new towel.
00:22:01Could you stop that at $20?
00:22:02Uh, oh, yeah, yeah, sure.
00:22:12Do you recognize that car down there?
00:22:16I know.
00:22:19Well, ain't that a novelty.
00:22:20Two strangers in one day.
00:22:22I know.
00:22:50I know.
00:22:51You're chocolate chip Charlie well, I sure as hell ain't the Kentucky Colonel get
00:23:20off of me. I'm sorry, what are you doing down here in a town like this, big executive like you? I'm trying to find out something about the son of bitches who stole my company out from under me and threw me out on my beautiful black ass. You work for them, huh? I'm investigating them, same as you are. Yeah, those shits. Somehow, man, they got to my asshole brother and my two idiot nephews and everybody else I trusted Woodstock and they brainwashed them, man. Next thing I knew, they was in and I was out.
00:23:47Yeah, okay, Charlie. Well, now, did you find anything out? What you gonna find out, man, in a town that has just been dried up and blown away, man?
00:23:56Must be a side effect of eating too much dessert and urge to migrate. Well, there's a widespread urge of that around here. I might have gone along with the idea they didn't have to steal my company. Yeah, but these guys don't like having partners, Charlie.
00:24:10Yeah, and I figured if there was a mafia front, I'd get back at them, expose them and then get my company back. But how did you find this out of the way place?
00:24:17Oh, those damn relatives of mine again. After they voted me off of the board of directors, you know what they did? They hid out from me, man.
00:24:25They just disappeared because they knew I'd kill them. And then they left us this place here as a forwarding address.
00:24:31A forwarding address? Yeah. Well, that's a post office.
00:24:39Where does all that mail get rerouted to?
00:24:42Well, to the, to these people, the addresses they left behind, but I don't see that any interest to you.
00:24:53Midland, Georgia, Midland, Georgia, Midland, Georgia. A whole lot of folks have relocated to Midland, Georgia, man.
00:24:59All right, it's dinner time about now. Why don't you just close up shop and we'll, uh, take you out for about to eat.
00:25:07I've eaten already.
00:25:10Uh, Midland, Georgia, huh?
00:25:12They all went there and you stayed here.
00:25:16Go away.
00:25:18Leave us alone.
00:25:20What do you mean, us, man? We're talking to you.
00:25:23Ain't nobody else in this place, is there?
00:25:24Because, uh, all we see is you and the gas station, man, and now he's gone.
00:25:29We're not bothering anybody.
00:25:35Excuse me.
00:25:37I'll be right back.
00:25:38What do you think, Charlie?
00:25:52The man is not in proper operating order.
00:25:55Absolutely.
00:25:55I'd like to take him someplace and get him X-ray.
00:25:57But what if he doesn't want to come along with us?
00:25:59But we snatch him.
00:26:00Oh, now, Charlie, I run a high-tech operation. I don't go in for things like that.
00:26:04I got a few low-tech solutions for our problem.
00:26:07We hit that sucker over the head.
00:26:08Oh, well, uh, we can do that.
00:26:11We throw him in the trunk of the car.
00:26:13We can do that, too?
00:26:13And we take off.
00:26:15But whose car?
00:26:16Uh, uh.
00:26:25I'll be right there, baby.
00:26:31Hello?
00:26:31Hello?
00:26:34Okay, lethal hands.
00:26:38Kill the door.
00:26:39Watch out for spinners.
00:26:43I always knock first.
00:27:00What happened to him?
00:27:01Nobody's mouth could open that wide.
00:27:08You are not thinking about going after him.
00:27:10I hope you got a gun on you, Charlie.
00:27:12How many times must I tell you my hands are lethal weapon?
00:27:15Yeah, I hope you're right,
00:27:16because if that thing tries to kill me,
00:27:18you kill me first.
00:27:26Hey, wait, wait, wait.
00:27:27We are not alone.
00:27:29The only thing Chocolate Chip Charlie knows better than fighting is running.
00:27:35Pick a direction.
00:27:43Okay.
00:27:43Get in that chair.
00:27:44No!
00:27:45Get in that boat, Charlie!
00:27:47Get in that boat!
00:27:48There's a hole in that sucker!
00:27:50Whoa!
00:27:52Get in the boat!
00:27:52fodder
00:27:53Get in the boat!
00:27:55Get in the boat!
00:27:58oh my goodness!
00:28:08oh my goodness!
00:28:11oh my goodness!
00:28:12оŃ
!
00:28:12Hey, honey, you got a cup of coffee for me?
00:28:22Oh, dear.
00:28:23You're a pretty thing.
00:28:24Look at her, isn't she?
00:28:25Mm-hmm.
00:28:25You know, every time I feel like eating,
00:28:27I think of that guy with the mouth.
00:28:29Uh-uh.
00:28:30Yeah, I know.
00:28:30I can't turn it right off my stomach.
00:28:31Me, too.
00:28:33Hey, waitress, you got any good chocolate chip cookies?
00:28:37Sure do.
00:28:38Oh, my.
00:28:39You got any of the stuff?
00:28:42I wish I did.
00:28:45I can't get it.
00:28:47It's on order, though.
00:28:50Charles?
00:28:55You and I are going to have to split up.
00:28:59You sure you no longer need my iron fists?
00:29:04I want you to go to Washington, D.C.,
00:29:07and see Special Agent Frank Herbert.
00:29:11You won't believe me.
00:29:19Maybe he'll believe you.
00:29:21Uh, Frank Herbert, the FBI.
00:29:25I got you.
00:29:26Uh, here you go, honey.
00:29:31Thanks a lot.
00:29:33Hey, uh, fellas, any of you guys going down Route 105
00:29:36to give a guy a lift?
00:29:37Yeah, I'm just about done.
00:29:39Oh, good.
00:29:39Thanks very much.
00:29:40Is your friend coming with you?
00:29:41Oh, no, he's got other business.
00:29:43Charlie, remember where you are.
00:29:46Nothing to expect.
00:29:47I can't be wrong.
00:29:47Hi.
00:29:48I need him.
00:29:49You are done.
00:30:05Yeah, Dad.
00:30:10Bye!
00:30:11Here he comes.
00:30:38Well, you're Mr. Rutherford.
00:30:40That's right.
00:30:40Well, I expected you about now.
00:30:44I gather the state wasn't a rather congenial community for you.
00:30:49News travels fast.
00:30:53You're not one of them, are you?
00:30:55You're not on the stuff, are you?
00:30:58Oh, I know, no.
00:31:00My doctor would never allow me to take any of that.
00:31:03But you distribute it.
00:31:04You know what it is.
00:31:05You put it in the stores and the supermarkets.
00:31:08I know what it is?
00:31:09Don't be ridiculous.
00:31:09But I don't know what it is.
00:31:10Does anybody know what it is?
00:31:11Anybody know what it wants?
00:31:13And those who would take a critical mass of it, to them, why, it's everything.
00:31:17When those people discovered it and they came here and brought it to me first, they were
00:31:21already addicted.
00:31:22They were compelled to find somebody like me who could market it for tens of millions.
00:31:27But that was long before you test marketed the product in Stater, so where did it all start?
00:31:34Everyone in Stater went to a little town called Midland, Georgia.
00:31:37Now, your conglomerate owns a mining company in Midland.
00:31:41I don't think anybody would pay too much attention to a disruptive character like you.
00:31:57You're a rogue.
00:31:58You're a crook.
00:32:00And the pay of the ice cream companies is just how trying to screw the competition.
00:32:03I could always kill you.
00:32:09Well, you could come to work for me.
00:32:12Let me show you something.
00:32:13I got a little envelope here for you in anticipation of your arrival.
00:32:23See, what you think of that?
00:32:25$1,000 bills.
00:32:26Mm-hmm.
00:32:26About $25 of them.
00:32:28Hey, right on.
00:32:30It's also the first draft share of a contract to supervise our security here.
00:32:35You do know who I am, don't you?
00:32:38I don't have to eat the stuff, though, do I?
00:32:41I really would like to leave that to the stuffies.
00:32:44It's not your fault.
00:32:45It is my fault.
00:32:46I invented the whole campaign that made it so popular.
00:32:49Do you think you're the only person that ever did anything wrong?
00:32:51No, I know.
00:32:52I'm not the only person that ever did anything wrong.
00:32:54It's just that I...
00:32:54Do you want to trade sins, Miss Kendall?
00:32:57All right.
00:32:58I'll trade a sin with you.
00:33:01I am not an oil millionaire.
00:33:04I'm an industrial saboteur.
00:33:09Why don't you just call the FBI and tell them what you know?
00:33:13I haven't got any credibility with the Bureau or any other federal agency, to that matter.
00:33:18I was one of them.
00:33:19They kicked me out.
00:33:21Um, what about Ralph Nader or something like that?
00:33:24Oh, I got a bad name with him, too.
00:33:26A couple of motor car companies hired me to discredit consumer groups.
00:33:29I did too good a job.
00:33:31But if you've got proof, then we've got to go to somebody and...
00:33:34I got no proof at all, and that's why I got to go to the factory with you tonight to get proof.
00:33:39David?
00:33:39Tonight?
00:33:40Yeah?
00:33:40You seen this?
00:33:42Oh, uh, hi, Doc.
00:33:44This is Nicole.
00:33:45Please meet you.
00:33:47Some kid on Long Island sure as hell doesn't like the stuff for breakfast.
00:33:51Went bonkers in a local supermarket.
00:33:55I don't see that kid.
00:33:59Honey, I'll see you at the airport tonight.
00:34:01What?
00:34:01Doc, would you, uh, see, uh, Miss Kendall home, please?
00:34:05David, you...
00:34:05No.
00:34:06Great taste for today.
00:34:08Tastes great every way.
00:34:10Can't get enough of the stuff.
00:34:13The stuff.
00:34:14The taste that makes you hungry for more.
00:34:16Enough is never enough.
00:34:18The stuff.
00:34:19Taste that delivers.
00:34:21Enough is never enough.
00:34:24For the stuff.
00:34:26Tonight on ABC's Nightline.
00:34:30Number of missing persons reported during the last...
00:34:33Hey, I'm up here, you know.
00:34:34A phenomenon not confined individuals.
00:34:37Entire families have been reported missing.
00:34:41Just these disappearances...
00:34:43Grounded for life.
00:34:46Tonight on ABC's Nightline...
00:34:48Oh, my God.
00:35:18Oh, hey, look. He's here.
00:35:35So, what are you looking at?
00:35:36Is that dinner?
00:35:38We're dieting. I've lost five pounds already this week, and I've never felt better.
00:35:43Why are you talking like you're on a commercial?
00:35:45Here, Jason. Take some.
00:35:48You know what I said about that. That was the truth.
00:35:52And you know that there is something alive in there.
00:35:57Jason, I mean, there's something alive in yogurt. It's called benign bacteria.
00:36:01Yes.
00:36:02I mean, there's something alive in a loaf of bread. It's yeast. I mean, that's a living organism.
00:36:05Mm-hmm, yeah.
00:36:05We eat plenty of things that are still alive that are good for us.
00:36:08I know that, but that was moving.
00:36:12All microorganisms move, Jason. I mean, if you could see them with the negative eye.
00:36:16Yeah.
00:36:16I mean, under a microscope, you can see them move. So what's the difference?
00:36:20That they're good for us, Jason. They kill the bad things inside us.
00:36:24He's just a baby. Always afraid of everything.
00:36:32Get him.
00:36:33Get him.
00:36:36Get him.
00:36:41Help!
00:36:41What am I supposed to do?
00:36:54What are you supposed to do? You're supposed to eat it. That's all you eat it.
00:36:57Need as much of it as you can, and you keep eating it.
00:37:04I thought you'd love this house, Jason. That's why we bought it.
00:37:06What about your new room? We got you everything you asked for.
00:37:09Are we asking you for so much?
00:37:17You always get everything you want.
00:37:32Now, you stay in your room until you finish that.
00:37:35Then you can become a part of the family again.
00:37:39I don't know.
00:38:01Oh, my God.
00:38:31Oh, my God.
00:39:01Hey, what are you doing down here?
00:39:17Didn't Dad say stay upstairs and eat it?
00:39:20He was right.
00:39:22I tried some of it, and he was right.
00:39:24Hey, that's mine.
00:39:30Sure is.
00:39:32Hey, Dad.
00:39:34Jason loves it.
00:39:36Jason always did have a hell of an appetite.
00:39:39Why don't you have some more, Cal?
00:39:40Still working on this one.
00:39:42Then I'll have some more.
00:39:43Books off the table, glasses off.
00:39:48As a matter of fact, I'll take a whole bunch of it up to my room.
00:39:53Just in case I get a little bit hungry.
00:39:58I never get tired anymore.
00:40:01We don't get tired now that we've been eating properly.
00:40:03Get in the car.
00:40:30Who are you?
00:40:31I saw it move, too.
00:40:33Get in the back.
00:40:35Take him alone.
00:40:35Go on, you!
00:40:36Get in the car!
00:40:37Get in the car!
00:40:38Stop it!
00:40:44Boy, they sure do have a lot of energy.
00:40:46Excuse me, sir.
00:40:58I kind of just threw up in your car.
00:41:01I know.
00:41:04I'm sorry.
00:41:05I mean, I just ate shaving cream.
00:41:08Well, everybody has to eat shaving cream once in a while.
00:41:13You feel a little better?
00:41:22Would you open the window now?
00:41:25Open the window?
00:41:26Mm-hmm.
00:41:36All aboard for Georgia!
00:41:38Wait a minute, David.
00:41:42I mean, what, what?
00:41:44Any more pastors?
00:41:45We all set to go.
00:41:45Well, we've got this ex-con here.
00:41:52Wow.
00:41:53I've never been in a plane like this before.
00:42:00Midland, Georgia.
00:42:02Fletcher's conglomerate that distributes the stuff
00:42:04owns mines and quarries all around here.
00:42:07There's got to be a connection.
00:42:19Very nice flight.
00:42:21Are you Miss Butterman?
00:42:23Yes, I am.
00:42:23Very nice to meet you.
00:42:24Very nice to meet you, too.
00:42:26When he wakes up, you keep him entertaining.
00:42:28And if we're not back in three hours, you take him to Savannah
00:42:31Airport and wait for instructions.
00:42:34I hope you don't mind my bringing my male secretary, Roger, along.
00:42:38He's so creative.
00:42:40I'm Elliot Howard.
00:42:41I'm the chief of public relations down here.
00:42:43Very nice to meet you.
00:42:45This my partner?
00:42:46Uh, my name is Michael Grimsby.
00:42:48Grimsby and Howard.
00:42:49Howard and Grimsby.
00:42:50Oh, yeah.
00:42:51Didn't you gentlemen ever live in a town of Stater
00:42:54at one time or another?
00:42:55Uh, how do you know that?
00:43:00Well, I...
00:43:00That's where the original tests were done
00:43:02by the Food and Drug Administration, isn't it?
00:43:03Yes, ma'am.
00:43:04That's how we heard about it.
00:43:05I had my own business down there,
00:43:07but I gave it up to join the firm.
00:43:09We were both convinced that this is the product of tomorrow.
00:43:18Look at those tall stacks.
00:43:20All full of the stuff, huh?
00:43:22Oh, my God.
00:43:52Call me Cassidy.
00:44:11What?
00:44:12Cassidy, I'm the company for you.
00:44:13Oh, nice to meet you.
00:44:16I want to thank you for the wonderful job
00:44:18you people have been doing down on Madison Avenue.
00:44:20Oh.
00:44:20It's very easy to sell a product
00:44:22when people like it so much.
00:44:24Yes, we like it ourselves.
00:44:26Sometimes it's tough to keep the workmen
00:44:28from eating up all the profits.
00:44:30I bet.
00:44:50You shouldn't be shooting pitches here.
00:44:55Smile.
00:44:56This is very, very interesting, Mrs. Cassidy,
00:44:59but I think that what we'd really like to see
00:45:01is the room where they put all the ingredients together.
00:45:05You know, where they mix the stuff.
00:45:07Oh, now that's a state secret, ma'am.
00:45:09We're very tight on that subject.
00:45:10Now, Mr. Cassidy,
00:45:12I intend to bring an entire play down here
00:45:14from New York
00:45:15and shoot a commercial
00:45:17using all the people who really work here at the factory.
00:45:19Maybe even you, Mr. Cassidy.
00:45:21Ribs, rib, ribuu!
00:45:24Ribs, rib, ribuu!
00:45:41Ribs, rib, ribuu!
00:45:42We'll be coming down earlier tonight.
00:45:55Coming down right after sunset every night this week.
00:45:59I can't think of getting some more trucks.
00:46:01We need more trucks. Keep up with it.
00:46:04I won't complain.
00:46:12I won't complain.
00:46:42I won't complain.
00:47:12I'll come in for a little breakfast and bring you on back here.
00:47:19Seems you've got to eat enough of it before it starts taking control of your mind.
00:47:23And like anything else, some people are more susceptible than others.
00:47:25Jason's in Savannah, Georgia by now.
00:47:41Oh, I'm going to collapse the minute I hit that pillow.
00:47:47No, I'm sure I'm glad you gave us a joining room because she likes to dictate right in the middle of the night.
00:47:51No.
00:47:52And she looks after my shorthand and my hunt and my peck.
00:47:55We're in Andre's exclusive continental restaurant, which caters to only the most discriminating clientele.
00:48:13How's the food, sweet heart?
00:48:17What?
00:48:19That's nice.
00:48:21Where's the stuff?
00:48:22The stuff is here now.
00:48:25Great new day sensation.
00:48:27Light and free now.
00:48:29We'll get you elevation.
00:48:31Enough is never enough.
00:48:33Enough is never enough of the stuff.
00:48:36The stuff, the taste that makes you hungry for more.
00:48:41The stuff, the taste that delivers.
00:48:44Enough is never enough.
00:48:46Enough is never enough of the stuff.
00:48:49Enough is never enough.
00:49:19I'll get it off you.
00:49:24I'll burn it.
00:49:31No, don't touch it.
00:49:32Take your hands away.
00:49:43I'm going to burn it.
00:49:44Oh, God!
00:49:57Harden my face.
00:49:57Harden on my face.
00:49:59I'll kill you!
00:50:00Leave us alone!
00:50:01Leave us alone!
00:50:04Oh, no!
00:50:05Uh-huh!
00:50:06Uh-huh!
00:50:07Oh!
00:50:08Oh!
00:50:09Oh!
00:50:10Oh!
00:50:11Oh!
00:50:12Leave me here!
00:50:13I try to...
00:50:14Look at that!
00:50:15That's meant for us!
00:50:16Kill him.
00:50:18Oh!
00:50:19Oh!
00:50:20Kill him, Mo.
00:50:21I'll burn the hell out of him.
00:50:24Oh, my!
00:50:26Oh!
00:50:27Oh!
00:50:28Oh!
00:50:30Oh!
00:50:32Oh!
00:50:33Don't touch me.
00:50:59Are you all right?
00:51:01Just getting that truck a hot wire.
00:51:03What if somebody reports the truck's stolen and then we're arrested?
00:51:15Yeah, we just tell them that our fellow tried to kill us.
00:51:18No.
00:51:18Where are we going?
00:51:19We're going back to the factory.
00:51:22We're going to take our own guided tour.
00:51:23Where are they going at this hour?
00:51:47Good time to travel when you don't want to be seen.
00:51:50Let's find out where the girl.
00:51:52Oh!
00:52:00Ow!
00:52:04Ow!
00:52:08Oh, my God.
00:52:38I can't go much further with this damn thing. It's making too much noise.
00:53:08What's that light up ahead?
00:53:18What the hell are they doing?
00:53:32That stuff comes right out of the center of the earth. And straight into our supermarkets.
00:53:39You mean they don't process it or manufacture it at all?
00:53:43No, they siphoned it right off and into the trucks. And the only way I can prove that is to go down there and steal one of those trucks.
00:53:50You can't do that. This place is wide open. They're going to see you.
00:53:56Not if I have this on.
00:53:58No wonder you saved that thing instead of my pocketbook.
00:54:02No wonder you have to go down there.
00:54:04No wonder you have to go down there.
00:54:06No wonder you have to go down there.
00:54:08No wonder you have to go down there.
00:54:10No wonder you have to go down there.
00:54:12No wonder you have to go down there.
00:54:15Sorry.
00:54:15That's great.
00:54:16Stop it.
00:54:17Shut up.
00:54:21Shit.
00:54:24I want you to go back to pick-up.
00:54:38Keys are under the floorboard and meet me at route five near the parkway
00:54:43All right, you gonna be all right. No, I'll be fine. This is my business
00:54:47You look kind of cute in this thing. Yeah, I
00:54:53Do love encouragement
00:55:05It's coming down
00:55:08Be grateful for its plentiful supply and for the good work we are doing
00:55:12Soon the hunger in the world will be a thing of the past
00:55:16The earth is giving off the food that will nourish more and guide us all to a new order of life
00:55:22I
00:55:24I
00:55:26I don't know.
00:55:56I don't know.
00:56:26I don't know.
00:56:56I don't know.
00:56:58Get me out of here now!
00:57:04Abby?
00:57:10Well?
00:57:12Hey, boy!
00:57:14Why don't you do something?
00:57:16Why don't you do something to me?
00:57:18I can't help!
00:57:22Why don't you do something to me?
00:57:30Jason?
00:57:32We'll get you out of there.
00:57:34Hey, what are you doing there?
00:57:36Get out of there!
00:57:42Get out of that truck!
00:57:44Hey!
00:57:46Hey!
00:57:48Hey!
00:57:50Hey!
00:57:54Hey!
00:57:56Ah!
00:58:23You shot my head!
00:58:25You want me to do what you made the rest of my family do?
00:58:28No!
00:58:32Ah!
00:58:33Ah!

00:59:12Grab my hands, Jason.
00:59:13That's it.
00:59:14I got you now.
00:59:15Come on.
00:59:16Ah!

00:59:48Ah!
00:59:49Ah!
00:59:50Ah!
00:59:51Ah!
00:59:52Hey, your hose is hanging out back there.
01:00:00Uh, you gonna arrest me for indecent exposure?
01:00:03Get your hands up where I can see him, and come on down out of the truck.
01:00:08Get over there. Put your hands up.
01:00:12Go ahead.
01:00:14Do I have to put my hands up, too?
01:00:16I mean, aren't you gonna shake me down?
01:00:20Okay, miss. You come down out of the truck, too.
01:00:22Let's go.
01:00:32It seems we've sprung a leak. It's a shame all that stuff is going to waste.
01:00:41I gotta go get some. Let's go get some.
01:00:43Officer, I'm so hungry. You know how it is.
01:00:47You get so hungry if you go without the stuff for more than an hour or two.
01:00:50I bet you're hungry, too, aren't you, Officer? You're a hungry guy.
01:00:54God, I'm so hungry.
01:00:56Come on, Officer.
01:00:59Fake eating it.
01:01:00Officer, it's so good. I'm sure you want some, don't you?
01:01:03Ah, this is great.
01:01:04Mm-hmm.
01:01:12Hey, look, there's a town up ahead.
01:01:16I'm gonna bypass it.
01:01:18It's too small.
01:01:19They probably control it, and we'd never get out of there.
01:01:22Then where do we go, David?
01:01:24We go to a large city, and they can't control it.
01:01:26We'd have a chance.
01:01:37A castle?
01:01:39I know the man who lives here.
01:01:40I know everything about him.
01:01:42He doesn't know me.
01:01:49Wait here.
01:01:49I want to get that door!
01:02:09I am reporting to Colonel Spears.
01:02:28Who are you?
01:02:30Well, I once worked for a man named Hoover.
01:02:33And, uh, he once ordered me to put some taps on an apartment that you rented for a 17-year-old black chick.
01:02:44And I wish I'd brought on the tapes because I could prove to you that I really am who I am.
01:02:49You're not with the Bureau anymore.
01:02:51Oh, no, no, no, no. They canned me, uh, just before they mailed those tapes to your wife.
01:03:00I could toss you off this tower.
01:03:02You'd land right about there.
01:03:05You're a trespasser.
01:03:07Well, you see, Colonel, you know, I only told you about the tapes so I could get up here to see you.
01:03:11Because I need you.
01:03:14You know that the whole country needs you?
01:03:19You wouldn't be trying to lie to me or deceive me or entrap me.
01:03:22Yeah.
01:03:23You remember, you were worried about the commies putting fluoride in our water system?
01:03:28Mm-hmm.
01:03:29Now, you know, there's a thing going on now that's a lot worse.
01:03:34Americans are being poisoned faster and quicker than you can imagine.
01:03:38Poisoned?
01:03:39Yeah.
01:03:39The FBI, you know, they always worried about commies getting, getting these deep cover agents and putting them into high positions in American industry.
01:03:47Then they'd acquire a corporation, right?
01:03:50And then they'd establish themselves and they'd work on us.
01:03:54From within.
01:03:55Right inside it.
01:03:56Get inside our insides and get us inside.
01:03:59Get it.
01:04:00Get it.
01:04:01Sounds like one of my radio speeches a year ago last Thanksgiving.
01:04:04You were a deep prophet.
01:04:06A product is being sold now.
01:04:08It's being consumed by tens of millions of people.
01:04:12And it contains a mind-affecting drug in it.
01:04:15And you and I, Lord, know who they are.
01:04:20And they're doing it.
01:04:22Oh, yeah.
01:04:22Their headquarters, they're less than a hundred miles from here.
01:04:26Sons of bitches.
01:04:29They're floating at me.
01:04:30Yeah, I guess they forgot about Colonel Spears, huh?
01:04:32They didn't know you were around and that you had something in you and you could want to bring it to their knees, right?
01:04:37Mm-hmm.
01:04:37Young man, you come with me.
01:04:42We're going to have a nice tall, cold drink.
01:04:45What, are you in the army or something?
01:04:48We are your only army, son.
01:04:52So this is the young lady who's going to go with us.
01:04:56Well, she's familiar with the plant.
01:04:57She's been inside.
01:04:58She can guide us.
01:04:58You can ride up with me.
01:04:59Oh, well, that's going to really be an honor, Colonel.
01:05:02Well, I know.
01:05:02That's why I asked you.
01:05:04And after this mission, you can reward me in a suitable fashion.
01:05:07Oh, uh, Colonel, I think you're moving in on my lady.
01:05:10Well, I wouldn't worry about that, son.
01:05:12You'll probably be a casualty.
01:05:23You know that, uh, missing truck?
01:05:25I see it coming down the road right now.
01:05:29No, I can't see who's at the wheel.
01:05:37Hey, found this here truck down by Highway 12, Bandon.
01:05:48Kind of figured you might, uh, give us some kind of cash reward for bringing it back.
01:05:55Yeah, okay.
01:05:56Move it on in.
01:05:57Well, come on.
01:06:08Move it on in.
01:06:12Not till we talk about money.
01:06:14Yeah, it's all settled.
01:06:17Whoa.
01:06:19I kind of like the sight of blood.
01:06:22Well, this is disgusting.
01:06:23Attention, the main gate has been penetrated.
01:06:41Outsiders are here to read the factory area.
01:06:43Do not resist them.
01:06:44Follow the agreed upon course of action.
01:06:46Repeat.
01:06:47Follow the agreed upon course of action.
01:06:48Yeah.
01:06:49Go away the hell out of there, yellow-bellied sons of bitches and stuffies.
01:06:57Come on.
01:06:59Take out behind that truck.
01:07:01Get them in up on the tower.
01:07:02Now, now, now.
01:07:09Come on, you stuffy sons of bitches.
01:07:12That's right, Colonel.
01:07:13You kill them.
01:07:14Come on.
01:07:14Come on.
01:07:19Let's go have a look inside, guys.
01:07:37No show of resistance.
01:07:39They may not be armed, sir.
01:07:41Doesn't matter if they are armed.
01:07:43There is no match for the American boy.
01:07:45We have never lost a war.
01:07:46What about Nam, sir?
01:07:49We lost that war at home, Sonny.
01:07:52They may have run out on us.
01:08:00Don't look.
01:08:02Don't look.
01:08:04The yellow sons of bitches.
01:08:06They took their own lives.
01:08:08Commie bastards, you cheated me.
01:08:12Still warm.
01:08:13This must have just happened.
01:08:14Must have issued suicide capsules.
01:08:18Ready for us.
01:08:19Standard KGB procedure.
01:08:20How about you, FBI?
01:08:21You ever seen anything like this?
01:08:26No white stuff in this, son of a bitch.
01:08:29Whatever was inside of them must have just taken off.
01:08:35I want to see.
01:08:36I want to see this.
01:08:38No, we have to go outside.
01:08:38I don't want to go.
01:08:39I want to see.
01:08:39You have to protect the young lady, trooper.
01:08:41How do you get out of here?
01:08:46Gun to the end.
01:08:47Take a left.
01:08:48Thanks.
01:08:52Come over here, boy.
01:08:54Come out.
01:08:54Come on, move.
01:08:55You think you, with these guns you got in your hands, you think you can shoot anything you
01:08:59don't like?
01:09:00Well, what if what you don't like is inside you?
01:09:04How are you going to shoot it?
01:09:05The disaster's going.
01:09:26Hurry up.
01:09:27Move.
01:09:27We've got to make it through that door.
01:09:36Come on.
01:09:37Oh, no.
01:09:38Yeah.
01:09:39One, two, three.
01:09:51Look out.
01:09:52Don't get none of it on you.
01:09:53Keep back.
01:09:54All right.
01:10:13We're going to leave it where it is.
01:10:16I own two radio stations down in Atlanta.
01:10:19We're going to fly down there.
01:10:21We're going to broadcast a warning.
01:10:22We're going to tell the public what this stuff can do.
01:10:3375, 80, 90 percent of the people in this world don't like me.
01:10:36No.
01:10:36No matter what I do.
01:10:37I give my body.
01:10:38I give my soul.
01:10:39And they still don't like you.
01:10:40They don't like me.
01:10:41They never have liked me.
01:10:42When I was a boy, I was always the biggest and toughest and strongest and smartest and
01:10:46best looking.
01:10:47See, they want to see somebody who's lily-livered and weak and spineless just like they are.
01:10:51Ain't that right, FBI?
01:10:51So, anyway, I'd like to know if there's something you can do to help me change my image.
01:10:57Now, Colonel, I think she can change your image like that.
01:11:01You sold them that white shit.
01:11:02Why can't you help sell them me?
01:11:13Come on, gorgeous.
01:11:13I should have taken you into combat years ago.
01:11:29What is this?
01:11:30World War III?
01:11:32Just get us to 4th and Maine right away.
01:11:33Say no more of your liberal remarks.
01:11:35Say no more of your liberal remarks.
01:11:35Say no more of your liberal remarks.
01:12:03You sold them.
01:12:08Say no more of your liberal remarks.
01:12:09I want to see you in your home.
01:12:11You sold them.
01:12:12You sold them.
01:12:13They got guns.
01:12:14They got guns.
01:12:15What are they doing?
01:12:16Machine guns.
01:12:16Get off the street.
01:12:17Come on!
01:12:17What are they doing with the shooting guns?
01:12:19Get off the street! Come on!
01:12:30Pay the drivers. Issue a 10% tip.
01:12:33Get a cash receipt.
01:12:34Yes, sir! Yes, sir.
01:12:35Proceed to the main lobby. We will reassemble.
01:12:39Report!
01:12:40Sir, our affiliates and they've garbage Florida, Memphis, and Macon.
01:12:43They've all agreed to carry your remarks in full.
01:12:45Buy clearances on as many stations as you can.
01:12:47Try the network affiliates. Make it worth their while.
01:12:50What's on our station now?
01:12:52Just the local sports and then a tribute to Elvis.
01:12:54Can't get enough of the stuff!
01:12:56The stuff. The taste that makes you hungry for more.
01:13:00Get that shit off my station!
01:13:04Get it off!
01:13:10You can't write this.
01:13:11What?
01:13:12Well, you say that you, uh, you're partly responsible for the whole thing and that you promoted reckless advertising.
01:13:19Well, that's the truth, isn't it?
01:13:20Well, what, do you want to wreck your career?
01:13:22I mean, you can be idealistic, but don't be stupid. I mean, this is...
01:13:25Well, I thought maybe I'd let you support me for a while.
01:13:28Support you?
01:13:29Well, yeah, you do make money at the things you do.
01:13:32Well, I, you know, when I blackmail people, I do.
01:13:35Get these stormtroopers out of my way before I'm forced to lay them off the waist!
01:13:39Get out of the way!
01:13:40Don't you know who I am?
01:13:41I am Chocolate Chick Charlie!
01:13:43My hands are registered with the men in Georgia police and lethal weapons!
01:13:46And I eat them guns for breakfast!
01:13:51The American people are being poisoned by a popular dessert product known as the stuff.
01:13:56Right.
01:13:57If you have this food in your possession, do not eat it.
01:14:00Good.
01:14:01If you are a merchant and you, uh, what is that?
01:14:04Good.
01:14:05Sell it.
01:14:06Sell it.
01:14:07Sell it.
01:14:08Not sell it.
01:14:09Get!
01:14:10Oh, get!
01:14:11Just get!
01:14:12Get out!
01:14:13Charlie, how are you?
01:14:14How you doing, David?
01:14:15My man, how you doing?
01:14:16Hey, David, man, they tried to get to me three or four times.
01:14:17They tried, but I just punched out the hole.
01:14:18But how did you find us?
01:14:19Well, you got time for a long drawn-out story?
01:14:21No, I don't.
01:14:22Well, you know, I never did hear from the FBI.
01:14:24You are not gonna do a program on this subject without the participation of Chocolate Chip Charlie.
01:14:29Because they stole my company out from under me, man.
01:14:31You know that.
01:14:32I got a right to be heard.
01:14:33Oh, great.
01:14:34Of course, they might figure I'm lying.
01:14:36You know, they might figure I'm trying to knock the competition, you know.
01:14:39You know how often it's easier to believe lies than the truth?
01:14:42Charlie, you are really welcome.
01:14:44I'm Nicole, the queen of the ex-liars.
01:14:46Eight minutes to air time.
01:14:48Who is this?
01:14:49Well, he's on the broadcast.
01:14:51Not on my station.
01:14:52Hey, are you really Chocolate Chip Charlie?
01:14:55Nah, it's nice to see that somebody still likes me, and the answer is that I am just plain old Charlie W. Hobbs,
01:15:00a private citizen who wants to make a public stable, and you are not gonna keep me off of those microphones, Colonel,
01:15:05even with all your stooges in the funny costume.
01:15:07Do you realize how many people love Charlie as much as Jason does?
01:15:11Twenty million!
01:15:12Twenty million people.
01:15:13In advertising money, how much is that?
01:15:16An extra twenty thousand a minute, probably.
01:15:18And if you wanna throw away all that money, you go right ahead.
01:15:21I will permit this colored man to speak, but speak one word of the commie party line, or one word in code, and I will blow his head off.
01:15:34Look, can I go somewhere to give my thoughts all the time?
01:15:37I'm gonna take you next door.
01:15:38Okay.
01:15:39That's a plot outline, and then we'll be back in the room.
01:15:41Rick, we don't have a lot of time.
01:15:43So are you prepared to say on the air that you've actually seen people devoured by the stuff?
01:15:48Oh, hell yes.
01:15:49And what's worse, I've seen what's left of them when the stuff gets through and comes back out.
01:15:53It sort of vacates the premises when it's true.
01:16:06How?
01:16:07Oh, I'm sorry.
01:16:10I mean, what am I asking you for?
01:16:12How would you know?
01:16:13Oh, I know.
01:16:15Ever.
01:16:16Charlie.
01:16:17Are you all right?
01:16:21Charlie, are you...
01:16:23Are you all right?
01:16:24What's the matter?
01:16:30Charlie.
01:16:31Let's go.
01:16:38Oh, God!
01:16:39Charlie!
01:16:43Oh!
01:16:48Oh, God!
01:16:49It's growing!
01:16:54Jason, don't move!
01:16:55Jason, don't let it touch you!
01:16:56Jason, don't move!
01:16:57Jason, don't let it touch you!
01:16:58Help!
01:16:59Move!
01:17:00Move!
01:17:03Help!
01:17:08Mo, help us!
01:17:09Help!
01:17:12Oh, God!
01:17:13It's growing!
01:17:14It's growing!
01:17:15It's growing!
01:17:23Hit the juice!
01:17:27Hit it!
01:17:33Get the girl off!
01:17:35Get the girl off!
01:17:36Come to me.
01:17:37Come on, Jason.
01:17:38Ah!
01:17:39Ah!
01:17:40Ah!
01:17:41Ah!
01:17:42Ah!
01:17:43Ah!
01:17:44Ah!
01:17:45Ah!
01:17:46Ah!
01:17:47Ah!
01:17:48Ah!
01:17:49Ah!
01:17:50Ah!
01:17:51Ah!
01:17:5630 seconds, sir.
01:17:57Should we delay?
01:17:58Oh, no.
01:17:59We'll never get the clearances again.
01:18:00Ladies and gentlemen, from Atlanta, Georgia, this is a broadcast of warning.
01:18:08This is not fiction.
01:18:09This is not a dramatization.
01:18:14My fellow Americans, this is Colonel Malcolm Gromit Spears.
01:18:19I have never misled you, and I will never mislead you.
01:18:22Tonight, America is in grave danger.
01:18:24We are under alien attack by a substance which represents itself as a popular dessert known as the stuff.
01:18:31If the stuff is in your house, do not eat it.
01:18:33Repeat, I mark you, do not eat it.
01:18:36If you are a merchant and have it on your shelves, do not sell it.
01:18:39If you happen to have a distributorship and you distribute this material, close your doors, make no more sales.
01:18:45Ah, ah, now, if a member of your family is dependent on this product, get them to a hospital.
01:18:49And if you have this product in your home, cook it. I repeat, cook it.
01:18:55And the people did believe.
01:19:01In the weeks that followed, the stuff was withdrawn from distribution, and the nation mobilized to collect it and destroy it.
01:19:08Across the nation, violent action has been taken against stores and franchises that carry the stuff.
01:19:14Local authorities caution the public to remain calm.
01:19:17The file reports that the product was toxic.
01:19:19Public health officials visited the quarry in Midland, Georgia, only to find it buried in a massive problem.
01:19:24And no one has a very profound corroborate, trying to avoid the right way for the criminalizations.
01:19:30The conspiracy exists to purposefully introduce poison substances into the food chain.
01:19:36In fact, by the commission of Washington, there's no grounds to act against the Fletcher Fine Foods Corporation,
01:19:42which claims to have innocently acted solely as distributors of the stuff.
01:19:47More at 11.
01:19:48Although the casualties were in the thousands, American industry has worked with full government support to save millions of other lives and to compensate the injured for their tragic losses.
01:20:00I am reading these words off a teleprompter because I simply didn't know what to say.
01:20:09And the fact of the matter is, is that I'm selling you an apology.
01:20:17I'm sorry.
01:20:23She is a pretty thing, isn't she?
01:20:25Well...
01:20:28Are you, uh, you here to throw my money back in my face?
01:20:31Uh, no, I spent it.
01:20:34You think by dynamiting one quarry you could shut us down forever?
01:20:38Don't you realize that stuff seeps up through the earth in many places?
01:20:41Well, I guess we'll just find those places.
01:20:45Trade, I'm, uh, not alone. It's a nice smoke.
01:20:49I suppose you've spent my money as well, eh?
01:20:53You two, you're in business together now, right?
01:20:56It was inevitable, wasn't it?
01:20:58The stuff is finished, of course.
01:21:00But, look here.
01:21:02Look at the new campaign for...
01:21:04the taste.
01:21:08There's only 12% of the stuff in it, just enough to make the public crave for more.
01:21:13And the balance is natural dairy products.
01:21:15There won't be enough of the stuff in it to, to get a grip on anybody's mind, to take over.
01:21:19Oh, uh, how do you know?
01:21:22Well, they tested it. We tested it in a small Illinois town.
01:21:25Well, if you tested it, then you can taste it.
01:21:28Oh, you go too far.
01:21:30I didn't come alone here, either. I brought along a couple friends.
01:21:34Jason!
01:21:39There's no place for a kid, Ma.
01:21:41Oh, he ain't a kid anymore. The stuff took away his parents and took away his brother.
01:21:45You said you brought another friend?
01:21:47Yep.
01:21:49Him.
01:21:51No, no, no.
01:21:52Put that away.
01:21:54You wouldn't use it in front of the boy.
01:21:56Like you said, I've been through a lot.
01:21:58Will you sit right now?
01:22:00Have yourself a seat.
01:22:02Go ahead and have a little dinner.
01:22:04Jason!
01:22:06Serve the gentleman.
01:22:08Pleasure.
01:22:10You recognize that, don't you?
01:22:17All right.
01:22:18No, wait.
01:22:20Make a big old mountain of it right in front of them.
01:22:23Here.
01:22:25Pass it right on down.
01:22:27And dig in yourself.
01:22:29Look, I had nothing to do with it. I didn't...
01:22:33See this hole here?
01:22:35It's getting bigger and bigger, isn't it?
01:22:37So you better eat that, or you're gonna eat this.
01:22:41Eat it!
01:22:43How much of it is?
01:22:45You eat as much of it as I want you to eat until I tell you to stop.
01:22:48It's coming out of your eyeballs.
01:22:54Eat it.
01:22:56You too, partner.
01:22:59Eat it.
01:23:01Mmm.
01:23:02Mmm.
01:23:08Are you eating it?
01:23:10Or is it eating you?
01:23:28Here they come.
01:23:29Right on the schedule.
01:23:35I guess we did it, Mo.
01:23:59You're going to get it.
01:24:01Okay, we're going to go to the station.
01:24:03I'll go to the station.
01:24:05Okay.
01:24:06Let's go.
01:24:08Okay, let's go.
01:24:09Let's go.
01:24:11Let's go.
01:24:13Let's go.
01:24:15Let's go.
01:24:17Let's go.
01:24:19Hey, my brother.
01:24:21Let's go.
01:24:23Let's go.
01:24:25Let's go.
01:26:26Enough is never enough.
