Haunting Of Winchester House Page #3

---

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|one thing straight, Mr. Carter.

You think that, on Sundays,|I don't see you from where I stand.

But I see you.

I'll be in my office, just here.

Ready?

Yeah, let's go.

-Landon! Where have you been?|-Nowhere.
