Little Miss Sunshine Page #3
Decided to check out early.
Yes. Yes. And I failed
at that as well.
Olive, the important thing
to understand here...
is that Uncle Frank
gave up on himself.
He made a series of foolish choices-
I'm sorry- and he gave up on himself...
which is something winners never do.
So that's the story, okay?
Now, everyone, just let's move on and, uh-
- Is he always like this? How can you stand it?
Olive, tell him about your
routine while you're doing this.
Okay. Little Miss Chili Pepper is
a beauty contest for everyone in Albuquerque...
but you have to be six or seven
and you have to be a girl.
This is our sister.
- Cindy.
- Spring break.
Dwayne went to see his dad
in Florida for two weeks...
and Olive went to Laguna
to see her cousins.
- She made it to the top
of the regionals out there.
- I was in second place.

your chances are?
I think I can win,
because some of the other girls...
they've been doing it longer,
- Yeah. Good luck.
- Not about luck, Frank.
Luck is the name losers give
to their own failings.
willing yourself to win.
- You've got to want it badder than anybody else.
- I do.
- Then you're gonna be a winner.

Remember when Olive
was here last month?
She was runner-up in the
regional Little Miss Sunshine?
Theyjust called right now and said that
the girl who won had to forfeit her crown.
I don't know why.
Something about diet pills.

contest in Redondo Beach!
- [ Screaming ]

- What happened?
- I'm just calling to- Cindy!
Yeah, we just got it.
Yeah, she basically went crazy.
