He Was A Quiet Man Page #3

All right.

[fish cheering]

So when are you leaving

for Fiji?

Well, not for--

We have two weeks

next month.

Oh, wonderful.

Yeah.

How'd your wife--

Yeah, we're bringing

a nanny, so, I mean...

[continues, indistinct]

[knocking on door]

Hello, Mr. Maconel.

My name is Derrick Miles.

I wonder if I might ask

you a few questions

about what happened at IDT.

I'm with The Herald.

How did you get

my name?

They said they wouldn't

give out my name.

Come on, Mr. Maconel,

you can't keep something

like this a secret.

You're an

honest-to-God hero.

I only killed one man.

Yeah, but you killed

the right man.

[vehicles approaching]

Look, do you think

we could continue

this conversation inside?

[tires screeching]

No.

[Men chattering]

Please, you'd make it

so much easier on yourself

if you just tell

your story to one person.

It's called an exclusive.

You're not coming

into my house.

Please, Mr. Maconel,

let me in before

these vultures

twist your life

all out of proportion.

No!

[knocking on door]

[Man]

Mr. Maconel,

please, sir!

[crowd chattering]

[knocking on door]

Go away!

Go away!

[pounding on door,

chattering]

[Man]

We're here from

Channel 5 News...

[knocking on door]

[Woman]

Mr. Maconel!

Welcome

to our world, Bob.

[gasps]

[Man on TV]

And we are back

with Ernest Williams,

chicken farmer--

[Man #2 on TV]

Ernesto.

[grunts]

[Man on TV]

Ernesto. Ernesto Williams.

Okay, and can I call you

chicken farmer?

[continues indistinct]

[gasps]

Oh...

Oh, fish.

There went our 15 minutes.

Bob?

Hi.

You know how

I was telling you

my company was coming in?

Is my lawn

bothering you again?

No, no, no, no, no.

Actually,

I was wondering,

since we're having

a small

Christmas barbeque

this weekend,

that maybe you'd like

to stop by.

It'd be nice to get

to know our new neighbor.

I've lived here

five years.

Oh, my,

how time flies.

[bell dings]

[Man]

There he is.

There's the man.

[Woman]

Our champ.

[Man]

Way to go, Bob.

Well done, Maconel.

[crowd chattering, cheering]

Hey, there he is!

Hey, Bob.

No, Mr. Maconel.

You don't work here anymore.

Come on.

Have I been fired?

[crowd laughs]

No. Come on.

Where are we going?

All the way.

You know, I just think

it's so great what you did.

Now maniacs will think twice

before going crazy.

[bell dings]

He's waiting for you,

Mr. Maconel.

It's right through

those doors.

[Woman scatting]

Oh, you can go right in,

Mr. Maconel.

Right through

those doors.

There he is.

Come on in, Bob.

I am so glad

to finally meet you.

Can-- Can I get you anything?

Something to drink?

A Pepsi or something?

Oh, Bob,

this is Maurice Gregory.
