the fascinating wildlife

that's in this area.

Do you know there are 100

different kinds of birds here?

There are? Yes.

I've seen over 50 myself.

Charlie?

You want to help me with

the sandwiches, darling?

Would you like a plate?

Thank you.

It almost looks like those romantic places

you used to see in old movies.

What does your husband

think about the idea?

He's not very interested.

Oh, what a shame.

But your husband seems to be.

Then I took one of those long, slow looks.

You know the kind you

take on a rainy weekend

when he's home playing

goody-goody family man?

I got up one day, got dressed

and told the bastard to

go back to his wife.

You know something?

From then on, it was just

like a breath of fresh air.

I cashed in my fur coat and all

the other little knick-knacks

and decided to buy myself a piece

of something really legitimate...

Like a house.

I could go to bed when

I wanted to go to bed.

That's why I'm here.

Although, you know,

I really don't know what's so

great about owning a house.

Thomas, what are you doing?

Looking, just looking.

You're trying to find fault, aren't you?

You don't trust anybody.

Most people are dishonest.

Lets get back to the others.

In a minute, in a minute.

Look at this, Mary! It's a water pipe!

It isn't even connected!

It's a fraud, just like I said.

These people are dishonest.

This is a fraud!

Trust people? I tell you, you

can't trust anybody, Mary.

You can't trust anybody.

I hope you've learned your lesson.

Look!

What's that sound?

Who cares?

I found what I was looking for.

Listen, Thomas, it's all around us.

Mary, will you leave...

Oh, my god.

Run, Mary, run!

Help, Mary, help!

Help, Mary, help me!

Ahh!

Oh, my god!

OVER THERE, ABOUT 50 YARDS,

WILL BE OUR COMMUNITY RECREATION CENTER.

IT WILL HAVE A COMPLETE

WORKSHOP AND HOBBY ROOM.

THERE WILL BE A THEATER, A BOWLING ALLEY,

POOL TABLES, SAUNAS, EVERY CONVENIENCE.

The Lawsons.

Where are the Lawsons?

They ducked out back at the picnic area.

Why didn't you say something?

After listening to you on

that bullhorn for 2 hours,

I was ready to duck out myself.

Keep moving, Charlie.

There's a lot more to see, everybody.

What's that noise?

Seems to be coming from over there.

It's nothing to worry about.

It's probably some of

our pumping equipment.

Marilyn, there's no pump. We'd

better get back to that boat.

Shut up.

There's nothing to worry about, everybody.

WHEN YOU COMPARE ALL THE

BENEFITS OF DREAMLAND SHORES

TO OTHER LAND INVESTMENTS

YOU MAY HAVE SEEN,

I'M CERTAIN YOU WILL REALIZE

WHAT A WONDERFUL VALUE WE HAVE HERE.

Oh, my god! Look!

That's Pete, one of our workers.
