- That's thoroughly predictable.

- Your act only works on an audience.

Feeling Christian?

Seat belt?

- I forfeit.

- Thank you.

Forty-two.

What do you mean, forty-two?

Forty-two is befriend somebody

I don't like.

It's a to-do list I have for my life.

Like getting a new personality?

Join the Peace Corps,

make a medical discovery.

Ambitious.

Be in two places at once,

get a tattoo.

What's number one?

I'd tell you,

but then I'd have to kill you.

I've come...

...to see if you're ready.

Take a good look. The only thing

I'm ready for is a dirt nap.

Ready to look into your heart,

Tom Thornton.

Your words have been heard,

and not just by me.

When you walked into...

Sh*t. When you walked into my club,

that wasn't just a coincidence.

Nothing's coincidence, baby.

You know you're the only one

who can make me sing.

Yeah, Miss Garber!

You'll put Eric in all your plays!

Eric, I'll put you in all my plays!

Come on. Do you know I got

three weeks to memorize all this?

You couldn't pull this off

in three months! De Niro couldn't!

I didn't write it, okay?

But you're gonna make a jackass

of yourself in front of everyone.

Look, I don't have a choice,

so would you help me out, please?

I'm just busting on you.

I'll be there opening night,

front row. And you can count on it.

With tomatoes.

Thanks, man.

Landon? Boys, can you help

with these groceries?

- Yeah.

- No problem.

Jamie.

What do you want?

I've known you for years. You've

never been the first to say hello.

I need help with my lines.

- Landon Carter's asking me for help?

- Yeah.

Okay, I'll pray for you.

Jamie, look...

You've obviously never asked anybody

for help before, right?

A request like yours requires

flattery and groveling.

It can't be about you.

It has to be for the common good.

It is for the common good.

Eddie Zimmerhoff deserves the best.

- Please?

- Okay. One condition, though.

What's that?

You have to promise

you won't fall in love with me.

- That's not a problem.

- Okay. I'll see you today after school.

Landon Carter is coming here?

He's dangerous, careless,

the worst kind of bully.

Daddy, what about forgiveness?

I thought we had discussed

that I would decide...

...how I wanted to spend

my time and my life.

It's him I don't trust, not you.

You gonna keep me out here

all afternoon?

Come on in.

My script is in my room. I'll be

right down. Make yourself at home.

Oh, yeah.

It's not likely.

That is one scary-looking...

- Jesus!

- No, Jamie's father.

Hello, Mr. Carter. I understand

you're the lead in the play.

Congratulations.

Thanks for letting me

come over and run lines.

I didn't let you.

It's a school night. Let's get
