Something Wicked This Way Comes Page #3

They call it "the soul's midnight,"

- Do they? Why?

- I don't know.

I guess it's the time

when a lot of people die.

Uh, old people.

I only meant old people.

Old people?

Will...

...we should have a talk sometime.

just you and I.

- What about?

- Oh, about when you were small.

That... picnic that we took

down by Indigo River.

- Look son, I know you got a fright then...

- I better get back to bed now.

Mom wouldn't like us up this late, talking.

She'd say we got to think of tomorrow.

Yeah, yeah.

Guess you're right, son.

I want you to remember.

you boys have to stay with your father.

Now. Billie, don't start

picking on them already.

It's nothing but

a plain, ordinary old carnival.

No, it can't be. It can't be ordinary.

We couldn't see it last night in the dark.

- It's Ed.

- Hey, Ed.

Your prize, sir. A free pass

to our fabulous Mirror Maze.

Thank you. Come on.

I tell ya, I wish I was

out there, to run, to throw, tackle...

touchdowns. I mean, there's nothin' like

the smell of that grass, to run on the field.

- Want to go in?

- No.

- No?

- Those mirrors...

- ,,,they're like last night.

- Miss Foley.

Are you all right, Miss Foley?

Here we are, Miss Foley. Are you OK?

Jim, Will. My two whisperers.

I'm all right now.

Yes, of course I am. Silly.

I must be tired out, I guess.

Why, it's so bright in there.

So beautiful, so strange...

It must have dazed me.

I don't quite remember.

I must get home.

My little nephew's arriving.

- Is she ill?

- I don't know.

Must be a shock, though.

especially if you have a face like that.

I can see your place of work, my good sir.

and a red, white and blue pole turning.

It's a miracle.

Your eyes see everything.

Only I think there is something

missing from your life.

Something that could make you so happy.

Ladies.

You have lived here a long time

without the scent of a lady's skin.

They're waiting for you, my good sir.

Call them.

- Number two.

- Two! Number two, that's me.

Excuse me, that's me!

That's my number. I won it.

- So it is, sir. So it is.

- I won it at last!

- No need to agitate yourself.

- Oh, you don't know how long...

two, three, four, five.

six, seven, eight, nine, ten.

- Oh, thank you.

plump thighs of Cuban beauties.

And a free pass to our magnificent Ferris

wheel, compliments of the management.

Oh, thank you. Oh, number two.

Who would have believed it?

Ohh, this is my lucky day.

Uh, may I, uh... join you?

Oh, this is my lucky day.

I just won $1000, and I have it here.
