I bought my new car down
at Exit 11 Motor Village.
- where am I?
- What is happening here?
- Don't worry. Somebody just dumping sludge in the creek.
But the guys are gettin'it cleaned up.
You can go on through if you want to, but
keep it kind of slow for me, will ya, please?
- Be nice and safe. - Hey! You can't
go there! I got your license plate!
That was Mr. Hoover from Exit 11.
Oh, I should have got his autograph.
Doggone it. My wife's never
gonna believe that I did this.
- what's that?
Two in one week. You ain't
dead yet, old man. Here you go.
Dear Mr. Trout, My
name is Fred T. Barry,
chairman of the arts festival, celebrating
the opening of the Mildred T. Barry...
Memorial Center for the
Arts in Midland City.
It would be our most profound honor...
for you to be one of our
creative and distinguished...
out-of-town
participants.
This check for dollar1,000
is for travel expenses...
and an honorarium.
- why all this sudden interest
in Kilgore Trout, Bill, huh?
Some mistake's been made. No question.
Maybe they've invited me because
they know I've got a tuxedo.
Ever show you my
tuxedo, Bill, huh? Yeah.
If they really want Kilgore Trout,
they'll want him in a tuxedo.
Ah. Yeah.
High school dance.
Believe it or not, once
even I was young, Bill.
Me. Hey.
Yeah, it's quite a good fit, huh?
Hey, Bill, what is that?
Cha, cha, cha
Cha, cha-
I'm too old for all that.
why go all the way out to Midland City
just to make a laughingstock of myself?
I'm my only fan.
Anyway, if I went out
there, I'd want to read...
out loud from my own stuff.
Means I'd have to go to those
wide-open beaver bookshops...
and dig out some of my published work.
They don't want nothin'
but smilers out there.
Unhappy failures need not apply.
exactly what they should see.
Show those provincials what nobody's
ever seen before at an arts festival.
Someone who's devoted his entire
life searching for truth and beauty...
and didn't find doodley-squat.
The creator who's failed
and failed and failed.
Think there's anybody in Midland City
who'd listen to a cockroach like that, Bill?
Anybody at all, huh?
Maybe it's my missin, Bill.
Think it could be my missin?
Dwayne?
Yeah.
Happy, happy birthday
From your staff all who
we wish you happy birthday
See? See, Francine?
What'd I tell you?
Something's come over him.
- I've never seen this Dwayne before.
- Oh, Harry.
Dwayne may be the most charming man in
Midland City, but he's also very shy.
I don't find him so charming anymore.
He was walking away from me just now.
