Flattery Amidst a Superhero Encounter

Batman I read your work. Insightful. Naive, but insightful.

Concerns About Health and Parenting Aspirations

Suzanne Stone He's gotta stop eating that junk. He's getting a rubber tire around him.

Angela Maretto He'll make a wonderful father someday.

Suzanne Stone He calls them love handles. I call them flab.

Angela Maretto What about you?

Suzanne Stone Me? You think I look fat?

[horrified]

Angela Maretto No! What about the idea of kids? That's what I mean.

Suzanne Stone Well, I love kids. I absolutely love them, but a woman in my field with a baby has two strikes against her. Say I'm in New York.

Angela Maretto New York?

[confused]

Suzanne Stone Well, for instance. And I'm suddenly called on some foreign assignment, like a royal wedding or a revolution in South America. You can't run from place to place with your crew following and conduct serious interviews with a big, fat stomach. Or say you've already had the baby, and you've got this blubber, these boobs out to here. It's just so gross.

Secrets and Ambivalence in Relationships

Margot You didn't notice anything different about Pauline?

Claude No.

Margot She's pregnant. She told me. She's keeping it a secret from Malcolm and even Ingrid, which I think is unforgivable. Now she's gonna have to marry him. What's she planning on doing, getting married and not drinking champagne? Then she's just gonna be lying. I guess she's afraid she'll miscarry. She probably will. I think on some level, she's ambivalent about the marriage. That's why she's not telling him.

Claude Are you stoned, Mom?

Margot Maybe a little.

Claude I don't like it.

Paddington

Defending Family Against Adversity

Millicent Not so fast! C'mon, hand over the bear.

[the Browns gasp in fear]

Mary No. We won't do that.

Paddington Mrs. Brown?

Mary He's family.

[she puts her hand on Paddington]

Millicent Family"? You're not even the same species.

Paddington It's true.

Henry It is true. And when I first met Paddington, I wanted nothing to do with him. But my wonderful wife, she opened her heart to him. And so did my incredible children. And now I have too!

[looks at Mary; looks back to Millicent; he walks up to Millicent]

Mary Henry...

[softly]

Henry It doesn't matter that he comes from the other side of the world. Or that he's a different species. Or that he has a worrying marmalade habit. We love Paddington, and that makes him family. |And families stick together! So if you want him, you'll have to take us all!

[Millicent prepares to shoot; Mary smiles]

Millicent Okay then.

[Mary gasps in fear]

Henry When I say "all"...

Millicent I've never stuffed a human before, but...

Paddington Wait! Wait. You don't need to do that.

[interrupts; starts walking towards Millicent]

Jonathan Paddington!

Judy No.

[sadly]

Millicent Yes. That's it. Come, come.

[smiling wickedly]

Paddington Uh...could I have one last request?

[sees a pigeon land on the roof]

Millicent What is it?

[sighs is disgust]

Paddington I'd like a sandwich. There's one in my hat.

Millicent Go on then.

Paddington Thank you.

[takes off his hat, pulls out his sandwich, and throws it at Millicent]

Millicent Nice try, bear! Aah!

[the pigeons fly at her, leading her off the cliff; the hatch opens in front of her]

Mrs. Bird THE CROW'S NEST!

Paddington Mrs. Bird!

Mrs. Bird What?!

Millicent Hey! Why don't you look where you're going?

[offscreen; seen hanging on a flagpole]

Mrs. Bird Ah, shut your pie hole.

A Mother's Haunting Realization

Grace Stewart At first, I couldn't understand what the pillows were doing in my hands and why you didn't move, but then I knew. It had happened. I killed my children. I got the rifle, I put it to my forehead and I pulled the trigger, nothing. And I heard your laughter in the bedroom. You were playing with the pillows as if nothing had happened, and I thought the Lord and his great mercy was giving me another chance. Tell them, don't give up, be strong. Be a good mother but now, but now what does this all mean? Where are we?

The Tragedy of Self-Identification

Suzanne Stone The point is that, for instance, ], who is married, I believe, to ], the well-known interviewer, doesn't say: Hello, this is Connie Povich with the news. Now, does she? And I don't think she would be embarrassed by it because she's already pretty ethnic when you think about it. Or to take another example, someone who doesn't have an ethnic bone in her body. There's ], who I strongly relate to because, you know, we have similar physical traits. Although I don't have to struggle with the weight problem like she does. And she also, to the best of my knowledge, has never identified herself, audience-wise, as Jane Trudeau even though her husband, Mr. Trudeau, is a prominent cartoonist of some kind, and not, as so many people believe, the ex-president of Canada. So, what I'm saying is this: There are some people who never know who they are or who they wanna be until it's too late. And that is a real tragedy in my book, because I always knew who I was and who I wanted to be. Always.

Struggles of Love and Mental Turmoil

Virginia Woolf Dearest, I feel certain I am going mad again. I feel we can't go through another of these terrible times again and I shan't recover this time. I begin to hear voices and can't concentrate. So I'm doing what seems to be the best thing to do. You have given me the greatest possible happiness. You have been in every way all that anyone could be. I know that I'm spoiling your life and without me you could work, and you will, I know. You see, I can't even write this properly. What I want to say is that I owe all the happiness of my life to you. You have been entirely patient with me. And incredibly good. Everything is gone from me but the certainty of your goodness. I can't go on spoiling your life any longer. I don't think two people could have been happier than we have been.

The Impact of Trauma on Morality

Commissioner Gordon Can we reason with him? He's holding innocent people hostage up there.

[about Two-Face]

Dr. Chase Meridian It won't do any good. He'll slaughter them without thinking twice.

Batman Agreed. A trauma powerful enough to create an alternate personality leaves the victim...

Meridian ...in a world where normal rules of right and wrong no longer apply.

[interrupting]

Batman Exactly.

Dr. Meridian Like you. Well, let's just say that I could write a hell of a paper on a grown man who dresses like a flying rodent.

Batman Bats aren't rodents, Dr. Meridian.

Dr. Meridian Really? I did not know that. You are interesting...and call me Chase'. By the way, do you have a first name, or do we just call you "Bats"?

Sue Brierley We chose not to have kids. We wanted the two of you. That's what we wanted. We wanted the two of you in our lives. That's what we chose. That's one of the reasons I fell in love with your dad. Because we both felt as if... the world has enough people in it. Have a child, couldn't guarantee it will make anything better. But to take a child that's suffering like you boys were. Give you a chance in the world. That's something.

[referring to Amleth]

Amleth Odin's brought him home!

King Aurvandill Onward brother!

Peasants Hail King Aurvandill! Hail!

King Aurvandill Like a battle dog returning to its master, I have come to be feted by my Queen.

Queen Gudrún Ever are we bound, my Lord.

King Aurvandill Prince Amleth, you have grown too old to be greeted as a child.

Prince Amleth Hail, Lord King.

[Bows]

King Aurvandill But, a father never grows too old for a good smothering! Oh, how I've missed you, my son!

[Picks up Prince Amleth and hugs him for a short moment]

Queen Gudrún Will your brother not grace us with his presence?

King Aurvandill Think not of Fjölnir, he will soon be with us.

King Aurvandill This was destined for this Prince. Wear it always with my love.

Amleth Thank you father... my King.

Queen Gudrún Fjölnir!

Fjölnir Hail, lord King!

[Whilst touching Aurvandill's ring]

King Aurvandill Furnish this fierce-hearted slayer of men with some drink that I might drink to him!

Queen Gudrún Accept my cup, kinsman.

Heimir the Jester LOOK! How the Queen's cup grows wet for more men than her King! What metal might buy a fragrant sip, sweet silver? or hard Iron!

Fjölnir Silence, you Dog! By Freyr, you slander your Lord and Mistress?!

King Aurvandill Please, brother! Tis but a jest! A Jest! Heimir keeps a foul tongue yet I keep him as a deep sworn friend.

King Aurvandill Come, brother. Here is one more need of your safe keeping than myself.

[The King hands Fjölnir's son to him]

Fjölnir My son, Thorir. To my Brother, the War Raven!

[Proceeds to toast]

Amleth To the Kingdom of Hrafnsey!

King Aurvandill Approach, Amleth, and behold in our blood the tree of kings!

Amleth Father!

Villagers Come for your carcass! you mongrels!

Fjölnir You behold your brothers gaze in amazement, I knew well you would; pity you never paid a bastard's eyes heed before.

Fjölnir Now... behold how swiftly your brother swings his sword!

[Fjölnir takes out a sword]

King Aurvandill Strike, brother... strike!

King Aurvandill But know that bearing a stolen ring makes no half-breed a King! Soaked in my blood, it will soon be sliding off your arm like a serpent! ...Your kingdom will not last.

King Aurvandill Let this misdeed haunt your living nights til a flaming vengeance gorges on your death.

King Aurvandill Strike... Strike!

Fjölnir To Valhöl!

Fjölnir King Aurvandill is dead!

Villagers Long live King Fjölnir! Long live King Fjölnir!

Fjölnir Bring me the boys head!

[Referring to Amleth]

Villagers Do you see him?

Peasants Over here!

Villagers Cut him off!

Amleth I will avenge you, Father! I will save you, Mother! I will kill you, Fjölnir!

The Struggle for Autonomy and Existence

You live with the threat, you tell me you live with the threat of my extinction. Leonard, I live with it too. This is my right; it is the right of every human being. I choose not the suffocating anesthetic of the suburbs but the violent jolt of the Capital. That is my choice. The meanest patient, yes, even the very lowest is allowed some say in the matter of her own prescription. Thereby she defines her humanity. I wish, for your sake, Leonard, I could be happy in this quietness. But if it is a choice between Richmond and death, I choose death.

It's not like I have any negative feelings about the name Maretto. Maretto is the name, after all, of my husband …who I loved very, very much. Um. Heh. Sorry. Sorry. It's also the name of his parents, Joe and Angela Maretto... and of his lovely and talented sister, Janice Maretto... who have been like a second family to me... and who I regard as I do my own family... particularly since my recent tragedy. I knew just through knowing and being related to them. They have given me what I think is a very precious and valuable insight... into the different kinds of ethnic relationships... that are part of the very things that I've been trying to explore... as a member of the professional media.

Malcolm It's true. I don't subscribe to the credo that there's enough room for everyone to be successful. I think there are only a few spots available, and people like Dick Koosman and Bono are taking them up.

Margot Malcolm, what would ever make you think that's something to draw right now?

Malcolm Sorry. I wasn't thinking about it. Sorry Margot.

Challenging Gender Roles in the Outback

Drover We're not really used to...

Lady Sarah Ashley A woman? I suppose you think I should be back in Darwin, at the church fête or a lady's whatever you call it. Well I will have you know, I am as capable as any man.

Drover Guests. We're not used to guests is what I was about to say but now that you mention it I happen to quite like the women of the outback.

Struggles of a Stolen Life

Virginia Woolf I am ungrateful? You call me ungrateful? My life has been stolen from me. I'm living in a town I have no wish to live in. I'm living a life I have no wish to live. How did this happen?

The Importance of Visibility in America

Suzanne Stone You're not anybody in America unless you're on TV. On TV is where we learn about who we really are. Because what's the point of doing anything worthwhile if nobody's watching? And if people are watching, it makes you a better person.

Paddington

Unexpected Encounter by the Lamppost

Mr. Curry Miss Clyde!

[runs up to Millicent]

Millicent Mr. Curry. What do you want?

Mr. Curry I found these tied to a lamppost and I thought: "Waste not, want not".

[shows a bouquet of withered flowers; gives Millicent the bouquet]

Millicent Charming. Now, if you'll excuse me...

[walks away]

Mr. Curry Uh...where exactly are you going?

Millicent What concern is it of yours?

[stops and turns around]

Mr. Curry You've got the bear in there.

[points to the taxidermist van, referring to Paddington]

Millicent And...?

Mr. Curry It's just... I thought you were sending him to Peru, but...

Millicent I said I was sending him where he belongs, which, in his case, is the ].

[[Night at the Museum|Natural History Museum]

Mr. Curry But, Honeypot, that is barbaric.

Millicent Mr. Curry, I am not your "Honeypot". I never was.

Mr. Curry What?

[realizes he's been used]

Millicent Now take your rotten flowers and get out of here. Go.

[gives Mr. Curry back the bouquet in frustration; Mr. Curry backs away slowly, she barks at him, he then runs away]

Paddington Good day.

Millicent Each of these men have been immortalized through these finds. But do you see anything from my father? No. Because when he met your oh-so-precious species, he refused to collect a specimen.

Boss Geographer No specimen?

Montgomery Gentlemen, gentlemen... I-I-I mean, these were no dumb beasts. I mean, they-they were intelligent and civilized.

Geographer 1 Oh, come off it, Clyde. They didn't even speak English.

Montgomery Well, no, but...

Geographer 2 Did they play cricket?

Geographer 3 Drink tea?

Geographer 4 Do the crossword?

Geographer 1 Pretty rum idea of civilization you've got, Clyde.

Boss Tell us their location. We'll send a real explorer to get a specimen.

Montgomery Never.

[pause; the crowd gasps]

Boss Very well. You leave me no choice. This expedition shall be struck from the records. Montgomery Clyde, I hereby revoke your membership of the hallowed Guild. Geographers, turn your backs.

[receptionist rips off the records; rips off his membership necklace; turns his back on Montgomery, followed by his fellow geographers]

Millicent We could've been rich and famous, but instead he threw it all away, and he opened a petting zoo. He put the happiness of a few furry creatures above his own flesh and blood. I vowed that one day, I would finish the job my father never could. And now, at last, that day has come. That's right. I'm going to stuff you, bear.

Paddington Ow...!

Margot at the Wedding

Expectations and Disappointments in Family Dynamics

Margot You know, Pauline told me she's very disappointed in you.

Claude Why?

Margot She thinks you laze about the house. Ingrid is always offering to help clean or cook. She made bracelets for all the guests. Even Malcolm puts up the tent. You just wait until everyone else does it for you.

Claude That's not true.

Margot It is true. I wish I taught you better manners...

Claude I can try to make pop-overs. If I remember how...

Margot Don't bother.

Claude Why are you looking at me like that?

Margot I just see how much you've changed. Your body language. You used to be rounder and more graceful. You're so stiff now, so blasé.

Claude What do you mean?

Margot I can't explain it.

Margot It's okay, though.

Claude Uh-huh.

Margot You're still handsome!

Drover Wait, wait a minute, hold on. What about the cattle?

Lady Sarah Ashley Well, as he was leaving, he deliberately let the cows out of the, uh... I don't know, whatever you call it, and they ran off.

Drover Damn! Do you realize, woman, what you've done?

Lady Sarah Ashley Mr. Drover, do not take that tone with me thank you, very much!

Drover Don't take that tone with ya, huh?

Lady Sarah Ashley No.

Drover I'm askin ya, woman, do you know what you've done? I won't get another drove this late in the season, alright? You've cost me my living!

Drover Round em up, huh? Oh, round em up, yeah. Huh? Round em up!

Lady Sarah Ashley Yes! You just... go get them!

Drover Fifteen-hundred head o cattle, scattered over a million acres with just me, and my two men. That's a great idea! Stupid cow...

The Hours

Contemplating the Nature of Existence and Death

Virginia Woolf Did it matter then, she asked herself, walking towards Bond Street, did it matter that she must inevitably cease completely; all this must go on without her; did she resent it; or did it not become consoling to believe that death ended absolutely? It is possible to die. It is possible to die.

The Beginning of Creation According to Grace

Grace Stewart Now children, are you sitting comfortably? Then I'll begin... This story started many thousands of years ago, and it was all over in just 7 days. All that long long time ago, none of the things we can see now, the sun, the moon, the stars, the earth, the animals and plants, not a single one existed. Only God existed. And so only he could have created them. And he did.

Disillusionment with Fairytales and Support Expectations

[to Lydia in the dressing room]

Lydia Mertz Yeah, I - I know that story.

Suzanne Stone And then... then you wake up... and it's daylight... and you look at him. It's just when you work all day, trying to perfect yourself and create something meaningful, you expect some support. Does anyone ever say "Did you have a good shoot today?" or "How's the editing going?" or anything of that nature?

Lydia Mertz I guess not.

Suzanne Stone No. I mean, the point is... Larry is a nice guy, you know? But he just doesn't know a thing about television.
