Lassie Page #2

Synopsis: The dog everyone loves now leaps into the '90s in this all-new exciting, updated version of Lassie! Determined to start a new life in the country, the Turner Family - Dad, stepmom, little Jennifer and teenager Matt - leaves the city for the wilds of Virginia. The move creates problems for everyone, especially Matt, who feels lost and alone in his new surroundings. Fortunately, the Turners are helped by a homeless collie who becomes part of their lives - and Matt does a lot of growing up as a result of the dog's unflinching loyalty. Watch the extraordinary collie protect Matt from a snarling wolf, rescue him from a raging waterfall or just nuzzle up for affection, and you'll know Lassie is more than a story of a boy and his dog - it's the story of a boy and the most remarkable dog in the world!

how much it upset you.

I don't know if that was

the right thing to do.

I know we can't bring her back,

but that doesn't mean

we need to forget her.

Goodnight, son.

- Dad, are you going to tuck me in?

- I'll be right there.

- You, too, Laura.

- OK, sweetheart. I'm coming up.

Well, everybody wants a dog,

I let the dog out.

That's all right. Come on.

Oh, my...

Cool!

- Pots and pans.

- OK, that's a start.

All right, I'm off.

- When I'm back, we'll go to the store.

- Have a good meeting.

- You've got breakfast?

- Five boxes of Pop-Tarts.

- We don't have a toaster.

- Get out of here.

I'll call you later

and let you know how it goes.

- We don't have a phone.

- Honey, it's going to be fine.

I know.

- See you later.

- OK.

Jennifer and I are going for a walk,

do you want to come?

It's not like the city, you know.

We'll both be short on friends here.

What do you want?

Hey, come on, cut it out.

Look, I said cut it out!

Hey! Hey!

Come back here!

Come on, give me those!

Drop those! Drop those right now!

I'm going to kill you!

Give me my headphones!

Wait a minute!

Stay! Stay!

Heel!

Give me those!

If you don't drop those...

Whoa!

How did you find this place?

Man, they got a rope here

and everything. Cool.

Looks cold!

That was awesome!

That was totally awesome!

I'm not kidding!

- Anything with that?

- No, I'm fine. Thank you.

Mr Jarman, since our last conversation,

I've worked out 3 preliminary options,

depending on how much

of the structure will remain.

- Based on your budget...

- That's what we need to talk about.

What?

Hi, Steve, how did it go?

- They don't want it.

- What?

- The new house, remodelling, nothing.

- Why?

He says he was running high credit

at the bank, way too high.

The man just lost half his flock,

and insurance isn't going to pay for it.

Len, I pulled my kids out of school. This

was going to cover me for 6-9 months.

It's a lousy break.

It's a damn lousy break,

but you got you one job,

you'll get another.

- That or some other type of work.

- What other work?

In the store, I hear about things.

There's always folks needing help

fixing this or that.

You mean, being a handyman?

Len, I'm a builder, I'm a contractor.

Stop! Don't shoot!

Hey, mister, that's my dog!

Don't worry. I think I know the difference

between a coyote and a collie.

Now, boys are another thing.

I don't often see one I don't know

on my land.

- Aren't lost, are you?

- No, I know my way.

- I'm staying down at the Collins farm.

- Collins?

I bet you had to dust the cobwebs

out of that place.

- Yeah, you're not kidding.

- Well, have a nice visit.

Thanks, but we're not visiting,
