00:01:01I reckon the biggest lie he told, and I ain't ever seen anybody but lie one time or another, was
00:01:07what they call the lie of old mittens.
00:01:10Because, see, while Mr. Mark Twain sure did write down an awful lot of them adventures, he never wrote them
00:01:16all.
00:01:17I suppose me and Tom were just more full of adventuring than his poor wrist could handle.
00:01:25Now, it's honest, he wrote about the murder in the graveyard Tom and we saw, and Muff Potter getting blamed
00:01:30for it, and me and Tom being took for dead, and then coming back to tell the truth.
00:01:34And it was Injun Joe who'd done it.
00:01:36And he wrote about Tom and Becky Thatcher getting lost in that cave.
00:01:40The very same one, me and Tom, to find all that treasure.
00:01:43And Injun Joe'd find his fate.
00:01:45And it's true, Mr. Mark Twain helped me write about my own adventure, escaping my drunk path and heading the
00:01:50wrong way down the river to free Jim from slavery.
00:01:53Them adventures was plenty.
00:01:55Feuding families, missing heirs, and a pair of conmen, would-be royals, the Duke of Bilgewater and the King of
00:02:00France.
00:02:02Tom even showed up in Arkansas and got shot in the leg.
00:02:06And there was others, too, that made the page.
00:02:08About me and Tom turning genuine detectives, catching a killer.
00:02:12For that time, me, Tom, and Jim were all taken hostigated in a balloon bound for Africa.
00:02:17And maybe, maybe them adventures isn't up.
00:02:22Maybe them history books are full up.
00:02:25Certainly would have done me.
00:02:27I never went looking for no trouble.
00:02:29But Tom Sawyer?
00:02:31Tom Sawyer was a magnet for them adventures.
00:02:34And I reckon maybe I was a magnet for Tom Sawyer.
00:02:40Best friends stick together.
00:02:42Sticking together got me into plenty of tight spots.
00:02:46Plenty of tight spots Mr. Mark Twain never even knew about.
00:02:56Surprised our sign didn't scare off that huckster, Tom.
00:02:58You sure his camp's gonna be this far inland?
00:03:01That rascal's a smart one, that's for sure.
00:03:04He reckon most folks that'd come to your conclusions, Hucky.
00:03:07How bad the skeeters get hereabouts in the summer?
00:03:09Well, most of reckon the same man couldn't stand it.
00:03:12But he can't outsmart a couple detectives with pedigree.
00:03:14Like us.
00:03:19Now, I've never been accused of having pedigree my whole life, Tom.
00:03:34How's that vinegar working for you, huck?
00:03:36Only thing for skiers, Tom.
00:03:38That and possum guts, but don't got none of them handy.
00:03:42You know, this nickel bottle repellent seems to be more than attractive.
00:03:45Could you spare a few splashes to help me keep those parasites at bay?
00:03:49They's bloodsuckers, Tom, but that's how they're made.
00:03:52You don't gotta call them that mean a name.
00:03:54Well, Hucky, that's what they are.
00:03:56You're cold, Tom Sawyer.
00:03:58Pat Finn used to call me that.
00:04:00Parasite.
00:04:01I reckon I can call worse, but I don't know when.
00:04:04Huck Finn, you blather sky.
00:04:06That's what they are.
00:04:07A parasite is a critter that lives off something else.
00:04:10Like how skeeters have to suck our blood to survive.
00:04:15Kinda wish you didn't know that, Tom.
00:04:17You didn't know Poppies means a bloodsucker.
00:04:20Not to speak ill of the dead, Huck, but I wouldn't put in no stock anything your Pat Finn ever
00:04:25said.
00:04:26Besides, he meant it in a metaphorical sense.
00:04:28Like you live off, Hulk, cause you skip out a score and have no occupation.
00:04:32But ain't nothing, Huck.
00:04:35Even so.
00:04:36Hucky, you ain't no parasite, not the bloodsucking kind or the metaphorical kind.
00:04:45Now this Huckster we're hunting up, Mr. James Holt.
00:04:48Now he's a parasite and ain't a place for that kind in this world.
00:04:51Selling the whole blame town to St. Petersburg on buying brand new security systems for their homes and shops.
00:04:57Selling up all kinds of trouble and getting the whole town word over some robberies that have been 20 miles
00:05:01down the river.
00:05:02And getting to turn on their friends and neighbors and not trust anyone.
00:05:05Even the postmaster in the good, righteous guy, Jim.
00:05:08And then, all of a sudden, during Sunday go to meeting time, ransacking the whole blame town and making for
00:05:14the river.
00:05:14That's how I figured it too, Tom.
00:05:16With no steamboats due to tomorrow morning.
00:05:19I guess he has to be out here.
00:05:20Unless he's powerful at Illinois shore.
00:05:23Well, that rascal's still here.
00:05:27A dead foe!
00:05:29Yep.
00:05:30Looks like he rigged up some of his security traps out here too.
00:05:36Have we tripped the pull line?
00:05:37The wire would've dropped that counterweight.
00:05:42And we'd be kept just fast.
00:05:44I read, Hucky.
00:05:45That wire drops at 32.2 foot per second square.
00:05:49Then big words just to say you ain't outrunnin' it.
00:05:52Sure.
00:05:53It's all account of potential and kinetic energy, Hucky.
00:05:56I think it's all account of everything that goes up's gotta come down.
00:05:59Exactly, Huck.
00:06:00That shit isn't a way they're sayin' it.
00:06:02See, that big cage back there had the potential for energy.
00:06:04Because gravity was pullin' on it, tryin' to bring it down.
00:06:07But couldn't.
00:06:08Account of the counterweight.
00:06:09But you trip the counterweight, well, gravity gets a hold and...
00:06:12Exactly, Huck.
00:06:13See, once gravity gets a hold, all that energy that the cage had the potential to have...
00:06:19Well, it grows into it real quick.
00:06:21You've got to remember, that speed and mass affect the amount of kinetic energy an object has.
00:06:26It's a heavy cage way up there, just drop one via a whopper.
00:06:30I don't need all the details, Tom.
00:06:31I reckon I get the big picture.
00:06:33Huck Finn, this detective business is all about the details.
00:06:37Tom!
00:06:40Noisemaker.
00:06:41This rascal's keepin' the thrills fresh, ain't he?
00:06:44Yup.
00:06:46More potential energy that'd make trouble for us if it finds its legs, Huck.
00:06:50If this sapling was all bent back, got free of this wire, and went back to normal like it wants
00:06:55to...
00:06:56It'd make quite a ruckus, huh, Tom?
00:06:58Sound travels at about 760 miles per hour, Hucky.
00:07:02Best to avoid havin' to outrun that number.
00:07:14Reckon that holden still has Aunt Pauly's Bible he stole from out of her lock cabinet?
00:07:18I reckon he still got all this pilferin', Huck.
00:07:20Won't fence it till he's a few days from St. Petersburg, the way I figure it.
00:07:23I reckon I'd never seen no one, so I'd have sorts over a book, though, Tom.
00:07:27She didn't even read that one.
00:07:29Otherwise, she would've had it with her when the crook struck.
00:07:32That's what they call sentimentality, Huck Finn.
00:07:34Oh, I know that one, Tom.
00:07:36I had an awful lot of sentimentality over Joe Harper's dead tooth.
00:07:39I want to have been playing marbles.
00:07:41It may not be as good as that golden knob you had once, Tom,
00:07:43but it was the best thing I ever owned.
00:07:45That was a prize, Huck.
00:07:47And I wouldn't take too kindly to some pilfer making off with it, either.
00:07:51Taking all these folks' possessions that they care about.
00:07:54Like, how I cared about that rotten tooth.
00:07:57It ain't right, Tom.
00:07:58I told you, Hucky.
00:08:00A parasite ain't a place in this world for that kind of man.
00:08:09Look past those trees.
00:08:12It's a scam, Tom.
00:08:19And I bet that trip rides this last line of defense.
00:08:22The warning trap to beat all warning traps.
00:08:25How's that when we're at Tom?
00:08:26Some kind of potential for kinetic energy?
00:08:31It's hard to see from where we are, Huck,
00:08:32but that's unlikely to be sure.
00:08:35I think it's best if we ought to avoid it for sneaking in there.
00:08:41Wait a minute.
00:08:42Hucky, do I got an idea?
00:08:43How's that?
00:08:45Listen.
00:08:46We can use his traps against him.
00:08:49Take the biggest amount of potential energy
00:08:51and make it kinetic.
00:08:54You go and head to the edge of the woods
00:08:56and hide them
00:08:57where we're sure to stay clear of the trails I got plans for.
00:09:01When you see me take off from him,
00:09:02there's no good holding you to be right behind.
00:09:05If he is,
00:09:06then you go and get back all his loot
00:09:08so we can take it back to him that it belongs to.
00:09:10You sure about this, Tom?
00:09:12Trust me, Hucky.
00:09:33I see you coming, you crook!
00:09:50Tom!
00:09:52Tom!
00:09:55Tom!
00:10:05You think you're so clever.
00:10:07Where's Tom?
00:10:08They don't care for you.
00:10:10You dirty street rat!
00:10:11I ain't a street rat!
00:10:13You're pretending.
00:10:14I know your pal.
00:10:16Uncle Barry Finn.
00:10:18You're one of us.
00:10:20Not one of them.
00:10:22You see how quick they are to turn on one another?
00:10:25To distrust and suspect their neighbors.
00:10:28They've known their whole life of covetous and pilfering.
00:10:32You think they can think of you any kind of way besides a filthy, mean, spirity son of Pep Finn?
00:10:40The most useless man this town's ever known.
00:10:45You owe him nothing.
00:10:49You get me out of here.
00:10:51And we take off down the river.
00:10:53We're among our kind.
00:10:56Living our way.
00:10:58Because boy, we ain't nothing but good old social parasites.
00:11:05That's how we made it.
00:11:07That's who we are.
00:11:11There ain't no place in this world for our kind.
00:11:30I'm no bloodsucker, nor no metaphor.
00:11:32At least wise, I'm no parasite.
00:11:34I'm Huckleberry Finn, and I'm Tom Sawyer's best friend.
00:11:38You bet you are, Huck.
00:11:40Tom!
00:11:44Sorry.
00:11:45I saw that my plan worked.
00:11:47That this rascal forgot all about his traps and walked right into it.
00:11:51He just kept on loading that pistol of his into trying to get free.
00:11:54And I just kept running it.
00:11:56I don't blame you none, Tom Sawyer.
00:11:58Did you get the swag?
00:12:00I'll probably buy one of them.
00:12:02I'll just make tracks back to town and get the share.
00:12:04I'm sure he'll be mighty interested in our day's doings.
00:12:13Let me go!
00:12:15I promise I'll turn myself in!
00:12:17I'll be a better man!
00:12:19The rest of my days!
00:12:21I swear!
00:12:23I say we should help him, Tom.
00:12:25He's with those skaters.
00:12:27Now, Huck, let it never be said, Tom Sawyer don't take no pity on his fellow men.
00:12:44But, Tom, I thought you called that an attractive.
00:13:13You should have talked to me first, Tom.
00:13:18Hucky, how many years do you know me?
00:13:20Too many, Tom.
00:13:21And do I ever seek your consultation on matters of business?
00:13:25You never tell me nothing when there's something on the line.
00:13:28Especially when it's my something.
00:13:30I don't know if I got there, it's the only thing I got left from Cairo.
00:13:33It's my pride and joy.
00:13:34Huck, it's the only way I can get back that time piece.
00:13:37I told you.
00:13:38But it's a gimme.
00:13:39There's no threat.
00:13:41Ain't you learned by now, I don't take a bet that ain't a gimme.
00:13:44You're more right than wrong, sure enough, Tom.
00:13:48But you ain't always right.
00:13:52And every blame soul in St. Petersburg knows that 30 pounds of feathers is heavier than a 10-pound stone.
00:13:59Who said it weren't, Hucky?
00:14:00That ain't one I'm aiming to disprove.
00:14:03You bet your little brother.
00:14:05Half-brother.
00:14:05All right, you bet, Sid, my mommy cat, that this bag of feathers will land the same time as his
00:14:1110-pound stone when we drop them both off garbage rights.
00:14:14That's what we spit on.
00:14:16Tom, 30 pounds is going to fall a heck of a lot faster than 10-pound stone.
00:14:22What?
00:14:23I reckon three times as fast.
00:14:24Think so, Huck.
00:14:26Seems right to me.
00:14:27And how's that, Huck?
00:14:30Well, you know, gravy and Ian Hurtschow and all that book learning stuff.
00:14:36Well, the heavier something is, the quicker it falls, stands to reason.
00:14:39Exactly, Huck, stands to reason.
00:14:41That's the trick.
00:14:44Tom, you done outfoxed so many stitches around so many different ways.
00:14:48Well, this time you outfoxed yourself.
00:14:50Nah, Huckie, it stands to reason, but it ain't the way it actually works.
00:14:55See, when they fall, objects, regardless of their mass or how much they weigh, fall at the same rate.
00:15:00Meaning, Huckie, not the same speed, but the same acceleration.
00:15:04That's because the amount of force gravity puts on a given object is dependent on its mass.
00:15:09So, a heavy object with a lot of mass, like that big bag of feathers, is pulled harder by gravity
00:15:14than that 10-pound stone.
00:15:19If you say so, Tom.
00:15:21I says it.
00:15:22Now, I told that little rapscallion to keep mumming about this whole affair.
00:15:26Did you?
00:15:27I reckon you won a crowd, Tom.
00:15:29If we're quick, we can get these proceedings along for Becky ever knows.
00:15:32I gave away that time piece she gave me last time we courted.
00:15:35I think it was the last time before the last time.
00:15:38Maybe you're right, Huckie.
00:15:39But if you can't keep track of your own romantic Eskimos, I suppose there's no chance, no way.
00:15:49Thomas Sawyer!
00:15:54You reckon she knows, Tom?
00:16:00Tom.
00:16:02Tom.
00:16:03Are you the reason for this foolishness?
00:16:05Huck helped.
00:16:06As usual.
00:16:07I told you this was another Tom Sawyer and Huckleberry Finn, Matt.
00:16:10Tom Sawyer?
00:16:11You are the most narcissistic, humiliating, self-obsessed courter that I have ever seen in my life.
00:16:17You know, Beau Laxley came to court you just last week.
00:16:20Beau Laxley.
00:16:21Now that's a boy who can keep his nose clean.
00:16:23He came calling right after you.
00:16:25But I was already spoken for, and now I'm stuck with a lifetime of these shenanigans.
00:16:29Oh, sorry you ain't courting Beau, Becky.
00:16:31Nobody likes Beau Laxley.
00:16:32Yuck.
00:16:33I was just trying to lure you on the embarrassment I feel in my heart when you're up to these
00:16:37troubles.
00:16:37Oh, and Tom's real sorry about giving away that timepiece you gave him to court in the past.
00:16:42My timepiece?
00:16:44You gave away my timepiece?
00:16:46What's a gift for me to Tom Sawyer?
00:16:47About as much as bathwater does to Huckleberry Finn.
00:16:51Becky, what do you think I'm doing here?
00:16:53I'm here to win it back.
00:16:54I'm doing this for you.
00:16:56For me?
00:16:58If this was for me, you wouldn't have kept it from me in the first place.
00:17:02This is about the drama, the theatrics, the spectacle.
00:17:05It always is with you.
00:17:07This is about your pride, Tom.
00:17:11That's what you serve.
00:17:15Tom.
00:17:18What?
00:17:21Go win your silly bet.
00:17:29One timepiece coming up.
00:17:39One timepiece coming up.
00:17:49All right, Sid.
00:17:51You got the timepiece?
00:17:52Right here.
00:17:54Tom, you got Huck's dead cat?
00:17:56Right here.
00:18:06Told you to keep mum, Sid.
00:18:08Pretty big crowd.
00:18:10Even only one of us talked it up.
00:18:11Word travels.
00:18:13Especially from two ports.
00:18:15I've been on that prize a while now, Tom.
00:18:17I knew it, Sid.
00:18:18Why?
00:18:19I don't need no timepiece.
00:18:20I didn't even need it when you gave it to me.
00:18:22It's just a bond.
00:18:24If I'm honest, thought it might come in handy,
00:18:26but to have to say, I'm surprised at just how handy it came.
00:18:29Tell you what.
00:18:31I'll make you an offer.
00:18:32I'll trade you.
00:18:34Straight up.
00:18:41She ain't mine to trade, Sid.
00:18:43But she's yours to gamble?
00:18:44Ain't much a gamble when you know you're gonna win.
00:18:47All right, boys.
00:18:49Weighing time.
00:19:02With the minutes show,
00:19:04the bag of feathers is heavier than the stone.
00:19:07Let the dropping commence.
00:19:14Last chance out, Tom.
00:19:15Why I need to trade when I'm about to get both
00:19:18and humble you to boot?
00:19:20Because that's what you're really after.
00:19:22Ain't ya?
00:19:24Humbling?
00:19:27It's them that deserves it.
00:19:29All right, you two.
00:19:30On my mark.
00:19:42Three, Mississippi.
00:19:44Two, Mississippi.
00:19:47One, Mississippi.
00:19:48Wait a minute, hon.
00:19:49I called time out.
00:19:50Time out.
00:19:53What are you doing, Tom?
00:19:55It looks like I'm fixing to drop a bag of feathers.
00:19:57No, you're supposed to dump them, not drop them.
00:19:59Now, Joe, we didn't agree to no restrictions
00:20:02on how I drop my feathers.
00:20:04Brady's got you there, Sid.
00:20:06Except that ain't the truth.
00:20:09This here, a signed contract with one Huckleberry Finn,
00:20:12owner of the collateral,
00:20:14promises Tom Sawyer would be dumping
00:20:16this bag of feathers
00:20:17separate from the back from which they brought.
00:20:19Witnessed by Bill Henley yesterday morning.
00:20:23Just ask him.
00:20:31Huckleberry Finn?
00:20:33This is genuine signatory?
00:20:39I didn't know about your scheme, Tom.
00:20:43I told you.
00:20:44You should have told me about it.
00:20:52What's the problem, Becky?
00:20:5330 pounds of feathers is 30 pounds of feathers.
00:20:57Won't it be the same bag or no?
00:20:59So Tom thought he'd out smart, Sid.
00:21:02That Sid wouldn't know if things fall at the same rate.
00:21:05Wish they'd do.
00:21:06Right.
00:21:07But only if there aren't other factors involved.
00:21:10Other factors?
00:21:11Like air.
00:21:12Air?
00:21:12It's what you breathe, Huckleberry.
00:21:14I know that.
00:21:15How's it affected?
00:21:17Huckleberry.
00:21:17Them falling at the same rate is only true
00:21:19if gravity is the only factor on an object falling.
00:21:22But they've got more acting on them than gravity.
00:21:24Air resists them falling too.
00:21:26So the bag of feathers and the 10-pound stone,
00:21:29for all intents and purposes,
00:21:30they're about the same density,
00:21:32so they'll fall at the same time.
00:21:33But Huck, if you separate those feathers,
00:21:36that feather's barely denser than a sheet of paper.
00:21:39Even with them falling at the same time,
00:21:41some of them are gonna separate,
00:21:42and they'll be so beat by the resistance of the air
00:21:44that they'll just float and mosey on down
00:21:46and land a good few seconds after the stone.
00:21:56Tom!
00:21:58Tom, take the train!
00:22:00Get your piece!
00:22:07Joe, let's start again.
00:22:11Starting again.
00:22:13On the mark.
00:22:18Three, Mississippi.
00:22:22Two, Mississippi.
00:22:24One, Mississippi.
00:22:30Yes!
00:22:49I'm sorry, Tom.
00:22:52That stone landed mighty sooner in them mess of feathers.
00:22:56Sid Sawyer is the winner!
00:23:09Told you you're after, Humblin' Tom.
00:23:22I don't see what you like about that, Tom Sawyer.
00:23:25Bestie by his little brother, Sid.
00:23:28Becky, you can do better.
00:23:29Let's get back to safety.
00:23:33Come on, Becky.
00:23:34Show's over.
00:23:35And what a show.
00:23:38Tell him, Huck.
00:23:39Tell him I don't mind about the piece.
00:23:42I'm sorry about your cat.
00:23:55I reckon we've been sharing a room too long.
00:23:58Can't believe that little Brad off-foxed me.
00:24:03And now, Becky's timepiece is going for good.
00:24:05And what about your cat?
00:24:08So what if it's a mummy?
00:24:11One dead cat's as good as the other, I suppose.
00:24:13And those are right easy enough to come by.
00:24:17You sure are taking this well, Huck.
00:24:21That was your pride and joy.
00:24:25Well, pride?
00:24:27Ain't never been too much of use to me, Tom.
00:24:31I come from, well, you know where I come from.
00:24:36Pride just gets in the way of things.
00:24:39Blinds you.
00:24:40Sometimes gets you humble.
00:24:45It ain't that simple, Huck.
00:24:48I reckon it probably ain't.
00:24:51Because without it, I'm an empty sack.
00:24:56I bet you weren't right.
00:24:57You ain't my master.
00:25:02It's just a part of me.
00:25:09Why did you sign away my scheme, Huck?
00:25:11With Sid?
00:25:12I didn't know it about your scheme, Tom.
00:25:14You didn't tell me about your scheme.
00:25:16He said we need to make this legitimate, and it's my collateral.
00:25:18I know, I know.
00:25:21It's not your fault, Huck.
00:25:25He just knows me too well.
00:25:29That's it.
00:25:31He knew I wouldn't talk to you about my scheme, because...
00:25:35Because I need to show it off.
00:25:38And I underestimated, and that's for sure.
00:25:41I won't make that same mistake again.
00:25:44Just like I won't be betting away anything else that don't belong to me on a gimme, neither.
00:25:56I'm sorry, Huck.
00:25:58I'm sorry, Huck.
00:26:09You only gotta master if you serve it, Tom.
00:26:15Well, don't you gotta serve?
00:26:16Something's in love.
00:26:27You think Becky will ever speak to me again, or we done courting for good?
00:26:31I don't think you have to worry about Becky Thatcher now, Tom Sawyer.
00:26:34Now, when are you going to tell me about this new scheme we're cooking up?
00:26:38To get back what's ours from Sid?
00:26:41Now, I am glad you say that, Huckleberry Finn.
00:26:44Because if I do, we've got a new plan to brew.
00:26:47Sure.
00:26:48And it is a good one.
00:26:49But of course, this time we can't take nothing on the brand of it.
00:26:52We've got to be smart, not confident.
00:26:54It's a good one.
00:26:57It's a good one.
00:27:12It's a good one.
00:27:40That was a skimmer, Tom.
00:27:41It's all just an understanding of the physics, Joe.
00:27:43You master the physics, you master the world.
00:27:46Nah, that weren't nothing, Joe. Watch this.
00:27:57Oh, I think Huckie's got you beat, Tom.
00:27:59You blind Joe Harper.
00:28:01You knowed mine went further, Tom. Why you making a fuss?
00:28:03Huck, you mullethead, the measure ain't the distance, it's the form.
00:28:07Besides, I gotta get two or three more skips out of my sauce.
00:28:10On account of the physics, like I said,
00:28:11you're supposed to control the physics, Huck. That's the game.
00:28:14You're making up rules as you want them, not as they be, Tom.
00:28:17That ain't so Hucky. Everybody knows that. You tell them, Joe.
00:28:20Uh, how's that, Tom?
00:28:22Tell Huck it's the form you grade.
00:28:24Well, honest, Tom, I don't know hardly nothing about this business of physics and stone skipping.
00:28:31Least of which I'd grade it.
00:28:34But, seems to me though, Tom, that Huck's got the more logical point.
00:28:38Ha! Your face, Tom.
00:28:40Yeah, hey, Joe, save the logic for those of us that's got it in spades, huh?
00:28:44Any chucklehead can throw their arm at a socket and get good distance.
00:28:47But the form of the skips, the dance of the stone or the water, that's the real game.
00:28:54Well, I reckon you do make a good point.
00:28:56Joe, you fare well.
00:28:58Now y'all put me in a mighty awful spot.
00:29:00I told y'all I don't know nothing about this business.
00:29:03Well, what do you look for when you skip, Joe?
00:29:06The distance like a real Missourian, or something highfalutin' like form.
00:29:10Well, I can't say I go for nothing, Huck.
00:29:14You mean you ain't never thought about it?
00:29:16I mean, I ain't done it, Tom.
00:29:20I ain't never skipped no stone.
00:29:24Well, Joe.
00:29:26Stone skipping's right up there with mumbly pegging and swimming for best summer's past time in all St. Petersburg.
00:29:32Well, I can't believe you missed out.
00:29:34Well, I can't stand it.
00:29:39Watch out there, Tom.
00:29:41About time you got an education in stone skipping, Joe.
00:29:43Step one is find the right stone.
00:29:46Won't just any stone do?
00:29:48No way, Joe.
00:29:50If you get the wrong stone, you might as well be chucking Becky Thatcher in the water.
00:29:53Get about the same distance.
00:29:55Well, actually, Huck, so long as you go by what the physics want, most rocks will skip some.
00:30:00Even a humongous rock if you throw it hard enough.
00:30:02But, for the absolute most impressive results the human arm can get, certain kinds are the best.
00:30:08See?
00:30:09Here.
00:30:11A nice stone with a flat edge and a round base.
00:30:14Now, in order to make her skip, there are two major factors to consider when dealing with an optimized stone
00:30:20like this one.
00:30:20Number one is the angle and rotation of how I throw it.
00:30:24Number two, the angle at which it hits the water.
00:30:26These others factors too, like its size and mass and the condition of the water's surface.
00:30:31But, with a stone like this, you can kind of take those things for granted on a nice day like
00:30:34today.
00:30:35Now, let's talk it through as we go.
00:30:37Number one, the angle at which the stone is thrown.
00:30:40See?
00:30:41How you throw it directly impacts two things that are important in getting a stone to skip.
00:30:45It creates the momentum for the mass and motion of the stone.
00:30:48And, it also affects the second major factor, the angle at which the stone hits the water.
00:30:53Now, you see how I got my arm cocked and loaded?
00:30:56Yeah, looks like you're going to pull something, Tom.
00:30:58Well, yeah, that shows I can fling a sidearm.
00:31:01The other important part is how I hold the stone.
00:31:04Now, you see how I got it wedged between my thumb and index finger?
00:31:07How I got my index finger wrapped around it?
00:31:09That shows, when I let it go and let it roll off the tips of my fingers, it puts the
00:31:14stone in a natural spin.
00:31:17Now, let's throw it and I'll show you how it skips in actuality, thanks to mastering the physics.
00:31:26Watch it with them stones, boys.
00:31:29See, thanks to the principle of the conservation of momentum, the stone doesn't lose momentum from the throw when it
00:31:34collides with the water.
00:31:35Now, all the momentum's got to go somewhere.
00:31:37So, if you look real close, Joe, you could have seen that when the stone hit the water on the
00:31:41first skip, it actually entered the water for a hair.
00:31:44But, thanks to all that momentum I gave it with my throw, it created a gully or a cavity in
00:31:49the water that the stone then slings itself out of.
00:31:51Then, its pitch angle out of the cavity creates a lifting force, which causes the stone to skip along and
00:31:56repeat the process all over.
00:31:58Now, as the stone continues this over and over, it slowly loses its momentum and it eventually sinks.
00:32:03But, if you take all them factors I told you about into consideration, you get a mighty whole lot of
00:32:08skips before it sinks for good.
00:32:10Makes sense.
00:32:11Give it a try, huh, Joe?
00:32:13And make sure you try for form.
00:32:15Nah, Joe.
00:32:16Ain't no way to master physics.
00:32:18You can't outsmart a good, honest throw.
00:32:21For distance.
00:32:33Alright, now.
00:32:34You can relax some.
00:32:35You're not here scaring crows, are you?
00:32:49What form?
00:32:51What distance?
00:32:52What did I do?
00:32:55What did I say about them stones?
00:32:59What did I tell you?
00:33:00Master of the physics?
00:33:02Master of the world?
00:33:03Master?
00:33:04I didn't mean to do that, Tom.
00:33:06I didn't mean to believe that old poor Chopped Ma.
00:33:08Look, only physics we can control now is how fast we make tracks.
00:33:39Oh, I don't understand.
00:33:53Just get the help of your dog, no?
00:33:54So I'm not thinking about the Jedi.
00:33:54This is what he told you.
00:33:55Oh, my God.
00:33:55I can't believe you.
00:33:55Oh, my God.
00:33:57Oh, my God.
00:34:02Oh, my God.
00:34:06That was a great day.
00:34:15We're getting closer together, and this is the third load already.
00:34:18Your paul can't do nothing about this, Becky.
00:34:20Judge Thatcher's made it pretty clear he's got more important pots on Mr. Oberma.
00:34:24But these traps are against the law.
00:34:26It says the populace are coming and bringing change with them.
00:34:30It says one of these days, student judges will be elected like the president and not
00:34:33appointed by the governor like they are now.
00:34:35It says not everybody can see it coming, but he can.
00:34:39Does your paul order for president, Becky?
00:34:40No, he's just afraid of offending the people who could have the power to take away his job.
00:34:45He doesn't want to underestimate the voice of the populace because it could be at his peril.
00:34:49See, people talk, and that talk can get teep.
00:34:52And he and the district attorney just want to focus on that which will make good talk and not bad.
00:34:57And stopping illegal trappers ain't big enough to help good talk.
00:35:00That sounds like fiction to me.
00:35:01Ain't enough populace about these parts to bring any kind of change like that, my paul says.
00:35:06They's only got a voice up in them Yankee states.
00:35:08Well, that's not what Judge Thatcher believes, Glenn.
00:35:10Sure sounds like he's running for president.
00:35:13I suppose politics is politics, but for now, we're on our own.
00:35:22Well, I suppose not entirely on our own.
00:35:40But what you're talking about, buddy?
00:35:43I suppose not.
00:35:44just thinking? I was just thinking an Animal Congress. A what? An Animal Congress? Like how we got your
00:35:51paw to enforce the laws. Well, most laws. And how we got the sheriff and the bodies of the government
00:35:56who write together, so we the populace. Populous, Irma. Can all live without fear like we had in the
00:36:00Old Testament days. We know what society is, but wouldn't that be something? If all the dogs
00:36:06spell all the traps like Dash and spread word amongst the other critters? Like a real bit of
00:36:09society. To live in your silly head. Why waste breath on such ridiculous fancy? There'd be a lot
00:36:14less for us to do. What's ridiculous? Bowies couldn't always talk. We had savage times.
00:36:19We'll just have careers one day too. Irma, not only is that impossible, but it's not right
00:36:24heretical. Okay, will you two stop that, Balderdash? It seems like neither of you know anything to me.
00:36:30I mean, animals may not speak English or French or dead Latin, but they still speak.
00:36:35Any silly body should know that. Now how so, Becky Thatcher? Won't you learn his parole ignoramuses?
00:36:45Okay. What do you two think Dash is doing right now?
00:36:48He found a trap, of course. Right. And he's telling us that he found the trap, ain't he?
00:36:54Why, that's a croak, Becky Thatcher. Rod, that don't count.
00:36:57Well, he's still communicating, ain't he? And that ain't even the only way. Look at his nose.
00:37:03From the other animals that have left their scent there, Dash can tell all kinds of things.
00:37:07He can tell between the different people and critters that have been there, and he can even
00:37:11tell specific things about them, like whether they was male or female or what time of day they passed.
00:37:16He can even tell emotions in those scents, like whether any of them was anxious or afraid.
00:37:20Really? I'll bet.
00:37:29Is that it? If you saw it and smell?
00:37:31Hardly. Listen.
00:37:37What? Don't you hear them? Someone talking?
00:37:40Yep. The birds.
00:37:44Oftentimes, the noise that the animals make mean just as much to them as talking does to us.
00:37:48Even more when it's Irma. Birds call and sing just to keep in touch with one another, or to
00:37:53warn of danger, or to let each other know when they've found food. They even use it for courting.
00:37:57Other animals use it in like ways, like monkeys, frogs, bats, even insects like crickets and grasshoppers.
00:38:04And, of course, dogs.
00:38:19That's pretty weird.
00:38:24Something in the area.
00:38:27Oh wow.
00:38:47Be
00:39:12You mean some animals can talk by vibrating their bodies?
00:39:15Yep.
00:39:16Spiders do with their spider webs.
00:39:17And through touch?
00:39:18Yep.
00:39:19Especially when they're learning to be social.
00:39:21Like a dog or cat playing or ants leading one another to food.
00:39:24And even through electricity?
00:39:26I didn't even know electricity was real.
00:39:28Yep.
00:39:29Eels communicate with one another and learn more about the world around them
00:39:32through the electrical charge they got in their bodies.
00:39:34I don't know.
00:39:35Maybe they talk in a manner of saying,
00:39:38but you really think an animal like that can speak to us in a complex enough way for it to
00:39:42kind of us talking?
00:39:43Why, Gwen?
00:39:43What are the professionals?
00:39:45Having himself a mighty conversation.
00:39:48Underestimate the mature peril.
00:39:50Dash!
00:39:53Dash!
00:39:57Here Dash!
00:40:02I said Dash!
00:40:03I said Dash!
00:40:17Sorry.
00:40:18Thought I saw it.
00:40:22I'm fine.
00:40:23I'm okay.
00:40:23I just, I can't move.
00:40:25My leg is pinned.
00:40:26Hold on, Becky.
00:40:27We're gonna find you help.
00:40:28Hold on.
00:40:31Dash!
00:40:32Dash!
00:40:33No!
00:40:33What's the use?
00:40:34What?
00:40:35That dumb munchess took off after a squirrel.
00:40:39No.
00:40:40Becky, I told you.
00:40:41Just, we're gonna find you something to get you out of.
00:40:44Yeah.
00:40:45We're on it, Becky.
00:40:49He's chasing that squirrel good, ain't he?
00:40:51No, I don't think he is.
00:40:53I think he found something.
00:40:54What?
00:40:55Well, can you just see what he has to say?
00:40:58Becky, I told you.
00:40:59Now, we're the ones you should be listening to and how-
00:41:05I think it's kind of just-
00:41:06Um, Gwen?
00:41:25Wrap this around you, Becky.
00:41:26We'll pull you up.
00:41:41Oh!
00:41:43Hi!
00:41:44Hi!
00:41:46Becky.
00:41:47Are you alright?
00:41:48Yeah, I'm fine.
00:41:50I think it's twisted, but I'll be alright.
00:41:53Maybe done trap-busting for the day.
00:41:56Who found this rope?
00:42:01Oh!
00:42:05I'm fine.
00:42:16I'll be right back in the pit.
00:42:20Ah!
00:42:24Noooo!
00:42:27Hi, HAVE they?
00:42:29Hi.
00:42:35Let's go.
00:43:17And I promise, as long as you kept up your studies, I guarantee your education, and I have.
00:43:28The United States Military Academy at West Point, New York, Tom.
00:43:33A full academic scholarship for the next four years.
00:43:38I've also arranged for your graduate studies, following your time at West Point at the University of Missouri, where, as
00:43:45long as you keep up your marks, you'll study law.
00:43:56Now, Tahal, surely of all people, you aren't speechless.
00:44:03I'm sorry, sir. I'm just...
00:44:06Thank you. I won't take this lightly, sir.
00:44:10I have no doubt.
00:44:12Well, now, another matter is your 18th birthday and your trust.
00:44:18Come on in, Huckleberry fan. This affects you, too.
00:44:30Now, I know you boys have both grown accustomed to payments from the trust I started from that treasure you
00:44:35both found all those years ago.
00:44:38Now that you both turned 18, the terms of your trust offer you some options, and I reckon it's only
00:44:44right for you to learn them.
00:44:45You at least have to make a decision for yourself.
00:44:48Now, you can keep everything in the trust as is, and you'll still receive a modest allowance, which won't be
00:44:53enough to live off of, but will certainly afford you plenty of additional comfort and security.
00:44:59Or you can, however, otherwise decide to go ahead and take the money out of the trust in one lump
00:45:05sum, which you could then use to buy a home, start a business, or whatever you'd like.
00:45:11But then that'd be it. The trust would be gone.
00:45:14Now, Tom, with your expenses taken care of at West Point, I'd highly recommend keeping your trust in place, and
00:45:22perhaps even deferring your weekly payments while you're in school to increase your investments.
00:45:26I was about to tell you, Judge, and that decision is set sure.
00:45:30All right. So, Huckleberry, have you thought about your future?
00:45:40Now, Huck, I know you, both of you, seen an awful lot of adventure and an awful lot of life.
00:45:47Body has to admit, I'm both admirers and jealous.
00:45:50But your Thomas boys is dusking up.
00:45:53You'll be men soon.
00:45:55Now, Huck, Tom has an impressive itinerary ahead of him the next few years.
00:45:59We've just been going over his plan.
00:46:01I've never seen no Tom story without a plan, sir.
00:46:04Of course. It's in his nature.
00:46:07What about yours, Huck?
00:46:10What's your nature?
00:46:14How's that?
00:46:15What you want out of life, Hucky?
00:46:20I'll take the lump sum, Judge.
00:46:25Now, Huck,
00:46:27are you sure, son?
00:46:31I don't want to owe nothing to nobody, sir.
00:46:34The widow Douglas, she took me in and kept me and civilized me up and taught me religion.
00:46:39And I'm mighty grateful.
00:46:40And I reckon I owe her for all that room and board and kindness.
00:46:45I reckon I can spare what's left of the treasure to set her up nice.
00:46:52Well, Huckleberry fan,
00:46:54that's a mighty swell thing to do.
00:46:57Why, why, it's a bully of a thing.
00:47:00But what about you?
00:47:02Have you seen to adequate occupation?
00:47:06I can hardly spend what you give me as it is, Judge.
00:47:09And I've got enough saved up to make my own way for a while.
00:47:12A long while.
00:47:14So, I reckon I already got the right occupation for me.
00:47:17Huck, you ain't got no occupation.
00:47:19Tom, the fish is going to catch theyselves.
00:47:22The watermelon's going to eat theyselves.
00:47:24The air out there is going to breathe itself.
00:47:28Huckleberry, those ain't occupations.
00:47:30That's just taking up space.
00:47:32Sounds like a right noble occupation to me, Judge.
00:47:36Not that I judge a body with amphibian, mind you.
00:47:39Ambition.
00:47:39Like Tom here.
00:47:40Why is Tom going to be president one day or some far-flung chic with wives aplenty like he always
00:47:45says?
00:47:46And that's good for Tom and all the talkers like him.
00:47:49And we need them to keep the economy going and the world populated with all them wives.
00:47:55But I figure there's competition enough.
00:47:57And those as happy with our circumstances, well, we oughtn't go in changing them just because we're supposed to.
00:48:04They don't make sense to me, Judge.
00:48:06You remember my pap, sir?
00:48:09I do.
00:48:10Well, sir, my pap, he was a bad man, sir.
00:48:14A social parasite.
00:48:17If he could amount it to even half of what I am, fishing and eating plied and minding my own
00:48:22keep, well, it'd be a miracle.
00:48:26Maybe this life ain't good enough for a sawyer, but it's more than good enough for a fit.
00:48:39How's the body I get with that?
00:48:52Look, it's Tom Sawyer.
00:48:53The train leaves out Monday, Tom?
00:48:55That's right.
00:48:56But we still got the weekend plans.
00:48:58I think Joe and them should already be down at Jackson's Isle.
00:49:00And once we get into more respectable duds, we ought to do the same.
00:49:05Four years in New York, huh?
00:49:06Good day, Mr. Sawyer.
00:49:08Well, I'll be back and forth, though, hug.
00:49:10And then I'll be back in Missouri for law school.
00:49:13But not for good.
00:49:14Here he is.
00:49:15Now, how do you know that?
00:49:16Because you're Tom.
00:49:21I guess this is the end of an era, huh?
00:49:25Now you're really just going to cash out next week and then sit around and do nothing for the rest
00:49:29of your days?
00:49:31I reckon so, Tom.
00:49:33Well, I don't understand it.
00:49:35You never have, Tom.
00:49:36But I can't believe you give up on all that adventuring.
00:49:38You're the adventurer.
00:49:40I've just tagged along time to time.
00:49:42You catch some adventures like fleas.
00:49:44And you don't.
00:49:45Hug, what about a few summers back when you went off with Jim downriver and had all kinds of adventures?
00:49:50Like those feudin' families and the Duke and the King and their royal non-set show?
00:49:55I'm coming at you like you's a magnet, huh?
00:49:57You can't repel that glory forever.
00:49:59Now, that was different, Tom.
00:50:01Them had to be had.
00:50:02Jim's life was on the line.
00:50:04And when we trapped that rascal holding who ransacked the town or when we saved Uncle Silas from the hangman,
00:50:09all them adventures they had to be had, Tom.
00:50:11Because the stakes were real.
00:50:13Ain't no sense in adventuring for nothing.
00:50:16Hi, Tom.
00:50:17You're attracting all commerce today, ain't you?
00:50:20Well, it's just to counter that article on me in the dispatch.
00:50:23All right.
00:50:24Kind of fun out of the woodwork, though, don't it?
00:50:26Yeah.
00:50:44That is what you're after.
00:50:46There are three forts on the aisle, one for each team.
00:50:49Protect your flag, capture theirs, win the game.
00:50:54Joe.
00:50:54Captain of the Greens has been recognized.
00:50:57What are we supposed to do, climb the tree?
00:50:59I'd like to see you try.
00:51:01Captain of the Reds has not been recognized.
00:51:03Plus, that's so Tom.
00:51:04Will the Captain of the Greens please address the neutralizing of the fishing?
00:51:07Yeah, screw you on up there.
00:51:09You think I can't?
00:51:10Captains, please.
00:51:11You just said I wanted to see is all.
00:51:13He doesn't think you can do it, Becky.
00:51:15Okay, Irma, you're not even a captain.
00:51:17Fine.
00:51:18Fine.
00:51:32As the captain of the Reds has demonstrated, flags can be retrieved with magic magnet wands.
00:51:37Tom will distribute one to each of the captains of the teams.
00:51:47You want me to explain it, Hucky?
00:51:49It ain't really magic.
00:51:50No, it's just a magnet.
00:51:53I learned this from Tom.
00:51:54See, there's this naturally occurring thing called magnetism, and it's something you can't
00:51:58see, but you know it's there.
00:51:59And it comes about because some materials have unique properties that create what a
00:52:04feller calls magnetic fields.
00:52:06Magnets, they're made up by folks to use magnetism to their advantage.
00:52:10And these made magnets have their very own magnetic fields, which folks can make by giving
00:52:14them different, what they call poles, north and south.
00:52:19These poles repel poles that are alike and attract ones that ain't.
00:52:22They can also act on a distance with other materials like metal, iron, steel, brass, copper.
00:52:28They're all attracted to magnetic fields.
00:52:30And magnets are weak and strong and in between, like most things, I reckon.
00:52:36And a magnet with a strong enough magnetic field, why'd it rip a metal flag right off the
00:52:40tree?
00:52:41Wow.
00:52:43I think that earned you one duty today, Hucky.
00:52:46Really, Tom?
00:52:47I thought the captain...
00:52:48All right.
00:52:49Greens, glues, you have ten minutes to set your forts before we start.
00:53:08A'ight, real strategists like us ought to scout their defenses before we move towards a capture.
00:53:13So Ben, Wimp, you're with me.
00:53:15Huck?
00:53:16Yeah, Tom.
00:53:17Uh, stay back and out of sight.
00:53:18A'ight?
00:53:19You want me to just do nothing?
00:53:21I thought that's what you like to do.
00:53:24There!
00:53:27You're spotted.
00:53:27You better tag him before they make it back to their fort.
00:53:29Tom, you want me to...
00:53:44Tom?
00:53:46Tom?
00:53:48Ben?
00:53:50Wimp?
00:53:54Must be the competition.
00:54:05Get you!
00:54:07Lill's water!
00:54:10I say, do my poor old tired royal eyes deceive me, my dear Duke?
00:54:16Or is this our old mate, Huckleberry Finn?
00:54:22Oh, no!
00:54:23Oh, no!
00:54:30Thy place and counsel, thy hast rudely lost.
00:54:33And the hope and spectation of thy time is ruined.
00:54:36And...
00:54:37And ere man do prophetically think thy fault.
00:54:42The words of King Henry IV to his prodigal son, Hal.
00:54:47That's supposed to be me, Majesty?
00:54:49Why, Huck, weren't we once your most noblest and selfless keepers?
00:54:54Why, didn't me and the King care for your every ingrateful need and want, despite our royal blood and years
00:55:00of gutter track?
00:55:01And yet, you fled our charge the moment our backs were turned and we were indisposed.
00:55:06Yeah, when you were a tart and feathered...
00:55:08Hey!
00:55:09You watch your filthy mouth.
00:55:13I'll never give up Jim.
00:55:15Old Jim?
00:55:16Why, we've been on his trail for years with phony papers claiming he's our runaway.
00:55:21Oh, Huck.
00:55:23Runaways is swole business.
00:55:26We're off to something big.
00:55:29You didn't take me to get to Jim, then.
00:55:32Why'd you take me?
00:55:43We have it.
00:55:48Hold it.
00:55:51In the chair.
00:55:59Tied, nice and tight, Duke.
00:56:14Prisoner!
00:56:21Quick thinking, Becky.
00:56:24Alright.
00:56:25Sid has captured Gwen.
00:56:27Wimp has captured Irma.
00:56:28And Becky has captured Tom.
00:56:31Now, time out while the prisoners are escorted to the Fort Prisons.
00:56:36And wait for my call to return in play.
00:56:43Maybe prison will keep you from leaving on Monday.
00:56:47Becky, your pa made all the arrangements.
00:56:50I know.
00:56:54Good thing Huck still has the one.
00:57:03I thought the sheriff sent you down the river.
00:57:16He did cause of you.
00:57:21Fortune found me doing a farm.
00:57:24Chained up to these.
00:57:26Rum barrels, gags.
00:57:29By the by.
00:57:30I guess talking.
00:57:32Seems we have a common history in you.
00:57:38Made an escape.
00:57:40Came to the hour I saw you last.
00:57:43I know that I'd run into you sooner rather than later.
00:57:47Your chickens come home to roost, Huck.
00:57:50You gonna help us.
00:57:53What?
00:57:55You're getting rich.
00:57:58I know this is your best friend, Rodolph.
00:58:03He's tickled to your last treasure, though.
00:58:06As much hassle as he caused me,
00:58:08taking that off his hands is the least he could do.
00:58:13Ain't no smarter way to get at it.
00:58:17He's a good man.
00:58:17And through you.
00:58:21Tell him, Smart, you ain't falling for nothing.
00:58:28I know he's smart.
00:58:30He's tough-lessed me.
00:58:35You ain't nothing like a gun or trash boy, just like your pal.
00:58:40You could have trashed the tin, don't give no hiding in here.
00:58:43You could go on a seat.
00:58:46Except for your one and only friend.
00:58:52We'll do whatever we want to save ya.
00:58:58So, boys. Roundup saw ya. Let's get him cooked right now.
00:59:06I got a treasure too.
00:59:12Me and Tom, we found it in a cave, years ago.
00:59:16The judge has been keeping it for us, in trust.
00:59:21But I'm due to get mine out.
00:59:23We'll want some next week.
00:59:28This...
00:59:29He'll just leave Tom alone.
00:59:33The gym too!
00:59:36I'll...
00:59:39It's yours.
00:59:45We'll be born to have you take your treasure off your upfin.
00:59:50Right after you take Tom.
01:00:01Yeah, we won!
01:00:04See the concrete here...
01:00:06And the winner is Sid Sawyer and the Blues!
01:00:15Sorry Tom, but it weren't on us.
01:00:18Yeah, Luke just wanded off.
01:00:20I mean, he took the magnet wand with him.
01:00:24What?
01:00:26You ain't seen Huck?
01:00:28Ain't no relying on him, Tom.
01:00:30Probably got it in him to go skip stones or go off fishing or raft out down river.
01:00:38I don't know.
01:00:39The Huck leaving is high and dry.
01:00:43I wager he's upset about your leaving, Tom.
01:00:52I know a bunch of us are.
01:00:56But he'll be fine.
01:00:58He'll cheer up and he'll find you by morning, I'm sure.
01:01:01It's his nature.
01:01:03But it's best to just leave him be.
01:01:06For now.
01:01:23The Stars are out.
01:01:25I say we've waited plenty.
01:01:26Aye.
01:01:28Aye.
01:01:29Now grab Sawyer and bring him here.
01:01:31Show him we got Huck and we mean business.
01:01:34Give him two days to make the arrangements.
01:01:36Then we start setting up body parts.
01:01:40Alright, we'll take the pistol lead out.
01:01:43Is that really a two-man operation, I wonder?
01:01:47What are you saying, Huck?
01:01:49None of my business tell y'all professionals.
01:01:51Second.
01:01:52Uh, no.
01:01:53Now go home.
01:01:55Well, Majesty.
01:01:57Seems to me if you're just frightened old Tom, he'd come easy to see about me if I was in
01:02:01trouble.
01:02:02You ain't need both royals out on the job, so why would Holden want to send both of you out?
01:02:11Unless...
01:02:11Oh.
01:02:13Enough!
01:02:14If you're just trying to turn us on each other.
01:02:15Hold on now.
01:02:16Huck, you go on to finish.
01:02:17Oh, my gosh.
01:02:18Well, you had to capture me.
01:02:20I could have been dangerous or could have run or fought back.
01:02:24So you sent two of them, which I reckon is sensible.
01:02:29But now that you got me, why would you want to send two people just to scare someone?
01:02:34It makes a body wonder, I reckon.
01:02:37It makes a body wonder about intentions.
01:02:40Why?
01:02:41Well, y'all are off scaring Tom.
01:02:43What's stopping Holden from taking me somewhere else?
01:02:45Scaring Tom on his own and...
01:02:47And...
01:02:47And taking both our treasures for itself.
01:02:49Shut it!
01:02:50Just try to turn us on each other.
01:02:54Naughty boy, huh Finn.
01:02:56Keep it up and you'll be early to your own funeral.
01:02:58I've done it too.
01:03:00And I'll be late.
01:03:05Since y'all ain't seen St. Pete yet, let's go over the back way to Sawyer's again.
01:03:10Of course, this gives the Royals a mighty opportunity as well.
01:03:15Now, Huck, what did we say?
01:03:18What now?
01:03:21Never mind, y'all are just gonna think I'm turning y'all against one another.
01:03:30You two go and get that boy without me.
01:03:34I might keep him for yourselves.
01:03:36Cut me out.
01:03:37But Holden, you still have Huck. You'd have half the treasure.
01:03:42Except there's two of you.
01:03:44Only one of me.
01:03:46You might get the drop on me.
01:03:49And don't forget, they sell those funny papers that say they own Jim.
01:03:53You do?
01:03:55Now Jim is our play, Holden.
01:03:58Yeah, we've been after him for years.
01:04:01I thought we were some partners.
01:04:03Yes, we are, but-
01:04:04Get me them papers!
01:04:14You got those papers.
01:04:16We ain't going nowhere tonight.
01:04:19The more than you trust the other one to go along?
01:04:27I reckon we oughta keep coming tomorrow.
01:04:29Can't wait and see.
01:04:31...
01:04:59We are pretty!
01:05:25Oh, pucks.
01:05:28Why didn't you come home last night?
01:06:00It took him back in his lap and it broke air bone in his body.
01:06:11Now this rig was based on ancient york catapults, but I modernized the release.
01:06:24He rarely built such a contraption.
01:06:27Yep, I told you. Traps and devices are my specialty.
01:06:30How do you crank this thing up?
01:06:53You know what you do with that thing?
01:06:57Is that another boot?
01:07:02Does that one look like a bad thing?
01:07:29Okay, now see here, Holden, if you can rig such a thing, why don't you just booby trap
01:07:33the boy? Aye, that'll keep you from trying to flee while all three of us are gone. Yeah, that's a
01:07:37thought now, we could all get Sauger and then, uh, the boy would never mind saying no to our, uh,
01:08:00pistol!
01:08:03Now we're going to talk about a new plan. That barrel ain't got one round, did it? We're rushing, can't
01:08:11give it one of us!
01:08:12One of us!
01:08:16Hey! You ain't got the guts! No, it ain't any!
01:08:21No!
01:08:23This is me!
01:08:29Hey!
01:08:30You're hurt!
01:08:33Oh!
01:08:34Put it off this alley, my husband!
01:08:37We don't burn your stomach for ya!
01:08:45Tom!
01:08:50Look, boys, he's coming by a parcel!
01:08:54Tom, the pistol's empty! Run for him!
01:08:58I don't need no pistol, teacher!
01:09:08I reckon you should've brought an army!
01:09:11Gosh!
01:09:12Wish I'd have thought of that!
01:09:28Oh, shucks!
01:09:29I reckon I did!
01:09:30I reckon I did!
01:09:31Come on out!
01:09:33Hands up!
01:09:34Got marksmen on all sides!
01:09:36Got your dead to rise!
01:09:37Let's make a move towards the boy or the barn and we'll shoot!
01:09:43That's them, Jim!
01:09:49Yeah, that's them!
01:09:51That's them!
01:09:52Come running for ya, Huck!
01:10:07See the Cochran hero comes!
01:10:12Sound the trumpets, bang the drums!
01:10:16See the Cochran hero comes!
01:10:19Sound the trumpets, bang the drums!
01:10:23Bully for Tom Sawyer!
01:10:25Vanquisher of Vand, Conquer Conspiracies!
01:10:33The town's gonna miss you, Tom.
01:10:35Just the town?
01:10:37Now, Tom Sawyer, are you asking me to wait for you?
01:10:41I am.
01:10:43Well, that's a double-binding contract, Tom.
01:10:45I'll be constant, Becky.
01:10:46No, four years is a long time.
01:10:48But I'd like to see us try.
01:10:57Sheriff's just made the arrangements, boys.
01:11:00This vandal's the old nab to be heading back down the river this weekend.
01:11:03Leave the snacks to their phony papers.
01:11:07My word, we'll do our best to add 20 years to their sentences.
01:11:10Yeah, you said it!
01:11:13What a sting dog, Tom!
01:11:15Well, I'm glad to hear justice will have its day, Judge.
01:11:19Did you hear how Tom outfoxed those varmints?
01:11:21I heard he took on all three, so disarmed them then and there.
01:11:24It was mighty fisticuffs, I heard.
01:11:26The big brother was ready for the challenge.
01:11:28Save the town at the expense of a third funeral for...
01:11:31Poor Huck family.
01:11:36Really?
01:11:37The hell it was, Tom?
01:11:39Blown out, Judge Huck.
01:11:40Bully it was, Judge!
01:11:42Tom came in fist a-blazin'.
01:11:44Took out all three of them himself.
01:11:45I was just trapped and helpless, but...
01:11:48Tom was...
01:11:50The white knight hero coming home.
01:11:55I heard the way it was, Huck.
01:11:58Sure it was, Tom.
01:12:00You can't hide from all the glory forever.
01:12:03Well, in the history books, side by side, it will always be Tom Sawyer and Huckleberry Finn.
01:12:11Sure it will be, Tom.
01:12:18Now, Tom, I've come find you this morning.
01:12:21I want you to meet this here fellow.
01:12:23Pleasure.
01:12:24This newspaper man out of San Francisco saw you right up in the St. Louis dispatch.
01:12:29Name's, uh...
01:12:30Clemens.
01:12:31I'd like to talk to you, Tom, about publishing your life story.
01:12:37My life story?
01:12:38Well, I bet the Adventures of Tom Sawyer...
01:12:43Could be a best seller.
01:12:48Wow!
01:13:02Look like maybe you're outgrown sleeping barrels, Huck Finn.
01:13:08You know me, sir?
01:13:10Aye.
01:13:11Clemens.
01:13:12I'm a newspaper man.
01:13:14Came in town to talk to Tom Sawyer.
01:13:19Oh.
01:13:21Heard a lot of tales since I've been here.
01:13:24Tales from Judge Thatcher, from Love Potter, from Tom's Aunt Polly.
01:13:32Seems like every adventure Tom Sawyer's ever been on right there by his side's been Huckleberry Finn.
01:13:41Then...
01:13:42Then I talked to Jim Watson.
01:13:46Talked to Jim?
01:13:48Seems like you've had quite a few adventures yourself.
01:13:53You'll do right writing about Tom.
01:13:55I ain't no adventure, I just...
01:13:57I wanna keep out of trouble.
01:13:59Well, Tom...
01:14:00Tom's one's meant to be written about.
01:14:03He's a big talker.
01:14:05And big talkers, well they can't write their own stories.
01:14:08They have the patience and all the inclination.
01:14:11And big talkers, they're the ones people wanna read about.
01:14:15And big talkers, they sell a lot of books.
01:14:17Sometimes they tell the truth, most of the time they stretch it a little.
01:14:21And they shape policy and culture, cause what they sell is simple and easy.
01:14:26Even the most self-righteous folks don't realize they get fooled.
01:14:33The small talkers...
01:14:38Well...
01:14:38The world don't want them, but the world needs them.
01:14:42They give the world perspective.
01:14:46Honesty.
01:14:48Both sides of the ride, and both sides of the home.
01:14:54The nuance that...
01:14:56Shades the gray that make up this world.
01:15:00They keep the tyrants out of power and out of favoring the public opinion
01:15:04whose nature bold appears.
01:15:06Otherwise, one kind of is.
01:15:13Now maybe Tom Sawyer's story needs to be told.
01:15:17Maybe I don't wanna tell it.
01:15:22The adventures of Huckleberry Fury.
01:15:26Nah, it's a story only you can tell.
01:15:32I ain't never told no stories.
01:15:35No?
01:15:36Hmm.
01:15:41That's interesting.
01:15:47How'd you know?
01:15:50I didn't write by my real name.
01:15:53Even mailed it without an address for a return.
01:15:56The more I learn about you, more clearly I've become.
01:16:01You're a good friend.
01:16:03Huh.
01:16:06And, uh...
01:16:07You got a problem with some words, too.
01:16:11Maybe too good.
01:16:12That got me in a lot of trouble.
01:16:16Now I still brought me here.
01:16:19Now the whole world's gonna know about Tom Sawyer.
01:16:22I'll be your best friend.
01:16:26You ever think about getting serious about your own stories up?
01:16:30You let me know.
01:16:34Mark Twain?
01:16:37I don't write by my real name, either.
01:16:52I just want to go.
01:16:55Better let me know about this.
01:17:01Huh.
01:17:03You coming down for breakfast this morning?
01:17:05After a while, Ms. Douglas, I thought I might work a piece and build up some appetite.
01:17:10Well, Polly told me Tom made it to school.
01:17:13That he's doing well.
01:17:14He's making friends.
01:17:16That's Tom's nature.
01:17:18Well, as many letters as he sent you, I really reckoned he weren't.
01:17:23That's Tom's nature, too.
01:17:26You know, Huck, I just want you to know how proud I am that you changed your mind on that
01:17:31trust.
01:17:34You keeping me company here, that is payment enough.
01:17:41And, you know, it does somebody good to see you with such ambition fully for you, Huck.
01:18:18Well, I reckon now you know about me.
01:18:20And Tom, and Jim, Becky, and Sid, and Joe, and Mr. Mark Twain, and all the rest.
01:18:28And maybe now you're satisfied after all these adventures.
01:18:31I know Tom Sawyer ain't.
01:18:33But I reckon Tom Sawyer never will be, so I guess I ain't either.
01:18:36Because no matter where Tom Sawyer goes, no matter where I go, it's just like Tom said.
01:18:43In the history books, in life, side by side, it'll always be Tom Sawyer and Huckleberry Finn.
01:19:19gyيف choreography
01:19:20And I know it's also like Tom Sawyer again.
01:19:20That's my handbag
