And singer.

So, this is just

a performance?

None of this is real?

Not even...

No. No, no, no, actually some

of it is honest-to-goodness.

Like the reading of the palms?

I never miss.

Oh.

Oh!

Uh...

Your linea vitalis converges

with the Ring of Venus.

My linea what?

It's the line of your heart.

I have never seen that.

Oh, my, my, my-

What?

Never mind.

I'm only an actress.

Come on,

what does it say?

I'm actually not sure

it's good for you to know.

Please tell me?

There will be a romance

in your life.

Romance? When?

Oh!

Is Mikey... (CHUCKLES)

My, oh, my-

(SIGHS)

BURCHESS:
She left everything

to you, of course.

Your mother and I never got

along, she didn't trust the bank.

Unfortunately, when she bought the

Wilson farm for all those dogs of hers,

she assumed a great deal of

debt, which is also now yours.

I'll figure it out.

And these were returned.

Undeliverable.

Emma! Oh, my gosh.

What time is it?

Ten minutes till 10:00.

Well, goodbye and thank you

for everything.

It's not goodbye.

I'll see you soon, kid.

Okay, I'd like that.

(HONKING)

(TALKING INDISTINCTLY)

(SIREN WAILING)

(TRAIN WHISTLE BLOWING)

All aboard.

Train's movin', darlin'.

(CHUCKLES)

(MIKE SCREAMS)

(PEOPLE GASPING)

(PANTING)

Mikey! Mikey!

Mikey, are you okay? Mikey!

(NESSIE BARKING)

(FUEL TRICKLING)

Mikey!

Mikey, we gotta go,

come on, Mikey!

(SIREN WAILING)

(NESSIE BARKING)

Come on, Mikey, come on!

Mikey, don't do this,

please wake up.

(OFFICERS

TALKING INDISTINCTLY)

Ready?

One, two, three, lift.

EMMA:
Is he going to be okay?

It's too early to tell.

He's in critical condition

and we won't know more until

the doctor gets here tomorrow.

Well, can I at least see him?

I'm sorry, no.

It's going to be okay, Emma I'm

sure Mike's going to be just fine.

Let me drive you home,

come on.

(BARKING GENTLY)

(VEHICLE APPROACHES)

(BARKING)

Nessie, shh.

(VEHICLE DOOR CLOSING)

(DOGS BARKING)

(MAN TALKING INDISTINCTLY)

You see, this whole thing will

be one big dog racing park.

And I'll tell you something,

the big money's right there.

Right there? (CHUCKLES)

You're a genius, Mr. James.

No, no. You're a big

part of this now.

Yeah?

Yeah.

Loyalty is the most important

virtue, don't you think?

Yes, sir. Absolutely.

Good, good.

And my dogs,

they always win.

Oh, yeah.

This is one I like to call

"Picking the winner."

(BOTH LAUGHING)

So, what you want to do with the rest

of these mongrels we got no use for?

Well, I'm gonna

leave that up to you.

It's such a shame his

mother dies, now this.

All those dogs and no one

to take care of them!

This is Michael's room.

Okay, thank you.

Nessie? Nessie?
