Life on the Line Page #3

Synopsis: LIFE ON THE LINE is a riveting action thriller and family drama centered on Beau (John Travolta), his beloved niece Bailey (Kate Bosworth) and the hardworking men who risk their lives to work "on the line" and keep the electric grid running. These unsung heroes brave raging storms and dangerously dizzying heights in their dedication to keeping the populace safe. Toiling hundreds of feet in the air on wires carrying as much as 500,000 volts of electricity, tragedy is often inches away. Haunted by the electrocution death of his brother, Beau is devoted to Bailey and determined to see her go off to college and away from the life of linemen. Bailey has other plans, which include the strapping second-generation lineman Duncan (Devon Sawa), whom Beau despises. A deadly tempest is brewing and headed straight to their Texas town. Beau, Duncan and a legion of linemen are thrust into the eye of the storm and must face down impending disaster to keep their community connected. This compelling act

- What is happening ?

Nothing.

I heard you were more with your guy.

It's sad.

People talk too much.

Let me help you.

You do not come home.

Go away.

Hey, cowboy.

Give him his business.

Where she goes, this one?

I'll kick your ass if you

do not give him her purse.

A next time.

I'll come back.

You change your mind.

And your girlfriend should be careful.

Who was that?

A youthful indiscretion.

Hi.

Good evening.

You're home late.

You're out with friends?

Have you seen Duncan?

No. Why ?

You sure?

Why?

Guess who has just been hired

as an apprentice to Elite.

I do not want you to go out with him.

I know.

It will make you suffer.

And his family...

It has not chosen his family.

I'm just saying that it will

prevent you from moving forward.

What?

No, nothing.

Okay, the steak?

It looks good.

You did your thing, there? Ton...

Your stuff for college.

I do not know what.

- Registration.

- You done?

I'm taking.

I am automatically accepted.

You do not have to worry about me.

Treasury, I make it,

worry about you.

Night and day.

Sometimes I not sleep.

It's stronger than me.

I have only you.

It is 8 am, Mom.

In the morning?

Yes.

What are you doing?

I go to work, Mom.

At work?

What's that, your work?

I have told you, I'm lineman.

Lineman...

Your father was lineman.

It is mounted on top of a pole

And he was killed.

- He left us nothing.

- Stop with that crap.

Dad drank, but it

was an accident.

That way, you're lineman?

Yeah, Mom.

Well...

Look at me.

Go to work there.

Go get yourself killed.

I will not cry.

I not come to your funeral.

- You understand?

- OK Mom.

What are you doing here?

You send text messages?

You're not paid for it.

Have you checked the post?

Yes. Its good.

Restart.

That's it.

Warning!

I had the eye, he nothing.

Look, it broke at the base.

I do not know how did you get here

But when we ended the contract,

I want to see your face.

It's got it?

Get down from there, whore!

It has reflexes for an old.

Listen to me.

If this strikes you old,

He'll blow his head.

Hey, my pretty!

If it continues like this,

I'm going to drink.

Thank you, darling.

Hey, you just serve us?

Must do anything

to be served here?

It makes me think of you, Beau.

Guys cable.

You can have me gratos chains?

We were not install the cable.

Serious, what do I have to do

To have free cable?

You should probably

just ask a cable guy.

You get smart, you?

But you know who you're talking to here?

I do not know.

A moron?

You know who I am?

Well, from what I see...

An a**hole makes no weight.

Listening.

We want no fuss.

It is slashed. We had our dose.

So we left there. Come on!
