I can't give any more! I've given enough already!
l- l-I guess maybe I'd better be getting off.
Not yet.
- "Arthur, in all my life..." - Move, Amy.
I wondered, where is he?
Just this moment, just now.
What is he looking at? What is he thinking?
I think it's time for Arnie to take a bath.
No!
Don't you think it's time for Arnie to take a bath, Gilbert?
Just let him stink.
- I don't wanna take a bath! - Please. - No!
You know Mr Carver?
Well, he's dead.
He's dead.
Okay, kids, hurry up. Let's go.
- Hi. - Hey.
- What's going on? - He drowned.
- You're kidding? - No. In that.
- A kiddie pool. I don't get it. - Wow.
It's like one foot deep. Weird, right?
- Oh, yeah. - He-He "drownded." - Shh, shh, shh.
Shh, shh, shh. Come on.
All right? Shh, shh, shh, shh.
He had the cardiac arrest.
His head bent forward, his knees buckled...
and then he just fell...
face forward into the pool.
When she found him, he was already dead.
That's what we don't know. That's what nobody knows.
No, I know it. I would... I saw the... I saw the... I saw the body.
- I saw the... I prepared it. I know exactly what... - You don't know...
I would have seen... I would have seen what...
if there was any kind of struggle that had gone on.
- It was murder. - No.
What do you think? What do you think?
I, uh, I don't know. I, um... You know, it's-it's possible.
Bob, we're talking about thousands and thousands of dollars.
- If she saw... - She doesn't have to work... - Even if she did wanna do it...
- She doesn't have to work for the rest of her life. - Even if she did...
If-lf you saw somebody laying...
with their head down in the pool motionless...
or even if they were kind of limply doing that...
- which he wasn't doing, but even if that... - You don't know that!
Well, it-it was an extreme, uh, "post-cardial" infarction.
- Extreme. - So nothing's fishy? - N-No.
Hey, Gilbert, look! It's that girl!
- Gilbert, it's that girl! - It's perfectly logical.
Even if it's... Listen. Wait a minute, Tucker.
We're not talkin' about... We're not talkin' about takin' a gun and shootin' somebody.
- We're talkin' about pushin' along something that's rolling that direction. - Hi!
- Please, play with me over there. - Okay. - Please?
Come on. Let's play over there. Come on. Please play...
- Hi. - How are you doin'? - Fine.
- Will you play over there? Will you play? - Okay. Okay, we'll play.
- Settle down. - We're gonna play! - Okay, okay.
- Will you give us a ride? - Yeah, yeah.
So, that's it.
Yeah, I guess so.
The magic part.
The magic part?
The magic part, Gilbert?
- Hey, could we go... - Grandma, here it is. - Yeah?
- Oh, thanks. - Can we go play now?
- What are we gonna play? - Hi. - Hi.
Can we play hide-and-go-seek? Hide-and-go-seek?
- You like that? - Gilbert? - Mm-hmm?
- Would you give me some help? - Yeah, go ahead.
- Hang on one second. - Okay.
Try it.
- I don't know. - Yeah, I don't know.
I don't... It's a mystery.
- Gilbert, listen, thanks anyway. - No problem.
Come play with me in the water.
You can't find me. You can't find me anywhere.
Say-Say "Where's Arnie?" Say that.
No, I want you to come in with me.
No.
Say "Where's Arnie?"
Say that.
Where's Arnie?
You can't find me. Say it again. Hi!
Say it again, and you gotta look for me around.
I wanted you to swim with me, Arnie.
Don't even try it, 'cause he's... he's had a scare with water...
and he won't... he won't come in.
I'm not comin' in the water.
- You wanna come in the water? - No.
Why not?
Are you scared to come in the water?
- No, no. - Are you sure?
- I'm sure. - He's scared.
Are you scared, Gilbert?
All right, what do you want to see? Do you want to see...
Do you want to see me get wet a little, like this?
- Yeah. - A little splash?
A little more.
Do you wanna see this?
You want this, right? Huh? You happy?
Tell me what you want as fast as it comes to you.
- Okay? - Okay.
Okay, what do you want?
- Faster! - Okay.
I want a new thing.
House. I want a new house for the family.
I want a... I want Mama...
to take aerobics classes.
I want Ellen to grow up.
I want a new brain for Arnie.
I want...
What do you want for you?
Just for you.
I want to be a good person.
I can't... I can't do this. I can't...
- Okay. - Where's Arnie?
Arnie?
Excuse me, ma'am, have you seen my brother?
No.
Shit.
- Hey! - Come on.
Hey! Over here!
- Hang on, son. - Come on, now.
- I did it again! - Get this unbuckled.
All right, here we go. There you go.
It's all right, Jerry. I got him. I got him. It's all right, Jerry.
We're takin' him in.
It's not gonna happen again, I promise this time.
We've warned you, we've warned your sister...
that the next time was gonna be the last time.
- Great. Great. - Flash the lights! Play the siren, okay?
- I don't believe this. - Play the siren for me!
Way to go, Gilbert.
- Jerry, listen. You're gonna... You're gonna have to take it easy on him. - We'll take care of him, Gilbert.
- You gotta... Really, you gotta keep an eye on him. - All right. All right.
Hey, hey! Hey, hey, hey!
Do the siren. Do the siren, okay? Do the siren, all right?
I know, Sheriff.
I know that, Sheriff.
Okay. Asshole!
They're probably just teaching him a lesson. They're probably just proving a point.
Yeah. That's right.
Get my coat.
What?
Get my coat.
Get it!
Let's go.
Well, at least he's in a safe place. At least someone's watching him.
Ellen, shut up.
You guys wait here. I'll be right back, okay?
Mama. Mama, let Gilbert handle this.
- Jerry, come on, please. - Please, have a seat outside.
- Please, you gotta let him out. - You need to wait your turn, okay?
- I don't think you guys understand. It's gonna be... - Look.
No one's going to do a thing until you go and sit down outside...
Jerry!
Jerry, I've come for my son.
Sheriff? Sheriff, are you there?
Bonnie, you'll need to fill out some papers.
No! No!
- Police procedure requires... - I want my boy, Jerry.
- But Bonnie, you have to calm... - My son! Give me my son!
Come on. You're goin' home.
Sunshine, you're free! Oh, baby.
- Don't disappear like that any more. - Okay.
- Promise me. - Mom!
You're free, baby. You're free. Let's go home.
Hi!
Look!
That's why she needs a cane.
Look at her!
Mama, they didn't flash the lights for me either.
Flash the lights.
Hey!
Look at me!
I'm hiding! Say-Say "Where's Arnie?"
- Say like that. - Arnie, get down.
Gilbert, come find me.
Where's Arnie?
Hey.
That's my mom in there.
My mama.
Gilbert, come play with me up here.
Come play with me.
God, that was so brave, what your mother did.
You know that, right?
I'd like to meet her.
No, you wouldn't.
Hey, where do you go next?
I would like to meet your mom.

Here, Mommy will take care of it. You run on outside.
Everybody thinks I killed him.
Do you?
No.
I miss him...
and I don't.
I miss him, and I don't.
So, Gilbert, what's to become of you?
Oh, I'll probably just...
You haven't thought about it.
Poor Gilbert... cooped up...
taking care of everybody else, forgettin' all about you.
- Mommy? - Mommy is coming in a minute, honey.
Okay.
Concerning my boys?
I was thinkin' that if my boys turn out anything like you...
Hi.
I was thinkin' how that would be nice...

He's all yours.
Are you gonna miss her?

Hey, hey. l... Mike, right? You wanna come to my party tomorrow?
I'm gonna be 18 years old. Wanna come?
You can come too, if you want to. I don't know you, but you can come.
How nice to see so many of you here on this great day.
This day marks the beginning of a new era for Endora...
for the Burger Barn family and, I hope, for all of you.
We at Burger Barn are committed...
- "to a very special relationship with" you, one that will last and last. - Hi.
In a time when so many things are falling apart...
Endora decides to give Burger Barn a chance...
a new breath of life.
She fixed it. The camper's fixed...
and we're gonna be leaving tomorrow.
Come on!
Hey, you can come to my party tomorrow, okay? You can come.
Okay.
- Hey! - Hi, Arnie. - So, I'm invited.
Okay.
- Do you not want me to go? - No.
I mean, go if you want.
Oh, so this is... is this how you want it?
I have to go.
Take care, okay?
Goodbye, Arnie.
- Oh, no. - Come on, let's get that bath.
No. No!
Hey, Arnie?
- Arnie? - Guys!
Arnie.
You gotta take a bath, Arnie.
Arnie.
Arnie, you gotta do it. It's your birthday.
- Arnie! - Oh, no! - Damn it!
Arnie, no!
Oh, God.
I can't make another one. I can't.
We have to have a cake, Gilbert.
Attention, Foodland shoppers. Remember, every day this week...
is a double coupon day.
- Can I help you? - Uh, yes.
Um, my sister called in an order for Grape.
Oh, yeah, yeah. It's all set.
There you go. That'll be 19.75.
- Go away, Arnie. - Gilbert, what's in there?
- It's a surprise. Leave it alone. - What's-What's in that box?
Don't touch it. If you touch it, I'm gonna kill you.
I can't believe you.
Look, I'll enjoy the party from in here. It'll be fine.
Now, you'll see. Everything'll be just fine.
What am I supposed to say to people?
I mean, it's Arnie's 18th birthday. Haven't you been waiting to do this for a long time?
I mean, wasn't it you that wanted to have this huge party in the first place?
I didn't want to.
- Damn it! - I can't believe you!
- Arnie! - Oh, man. - Look, he's eating the cake!
- Shit! - Arnie! - That's it. Forget it.
- Forget it. - Nice job, Arnie. - Arnie!
Now what are we gonna do?
Arnie! Arnie.
Come here. Come here! Come here!
Do you know what that fucking cost? Do you know what I had to do?
Come on. No, no, it's time for your bath.
Get your clothes off. Get 'em off!
- Get in that bath. - Gilbert, no! - Get your fucking clothes off.
Come on.
- Gilbert, no! - Don't move. Don't move!
Gilbert, stop!
Gilbert!
What did you do?
Mama!
Arnie?
Arnie!
What is goin' on?
Don't worry, Mama. Ellen, let's go.
- We should call his mother. - No, no, no. It's okay. I know...
I know where he lives. I can take him.
It's really okay. Yeah.
Arnie, you wanna go for a walk?
You wanna go play, Arnie?
Come on, Arnie.
You can do it.
Come on, Arnie. You can do it. Come on.
- "Merrily, merrily." Sing that. - Okay.
Row, row, row your boat
Gently down the stream
Yea! Yea! You did it!
Good job, Arnie! You did it!
So I'll see you in a little bit, okay?
- Bye! - Bye, Arnie.
Take care.
You know, I "drownded," huh? I "drownded" over there.
No, you just got clean.
Arnie!
Hi! How are you?
- No, I'm fine. - You sure?
- Yeah, I'm fine. - All right.
- Bye! - Thank you so much. - You're welcome.
I hit him.
I hit him so hard, l...
He's gonna be okay.
You don't hurt Arnie. You just don't.
I gotta go. I gotta go.
I got nowhere to go.
I had to work extra hours just to feed her.
So it's your fault?
You don't understand. She was in shock for years. He disappeared.
He didn't say goodbye. He just...
One day, all of a sudden...
he was gone.
He was just hangin' there.
That's when it all started.
She used to be so pretty.
She was so pretty and so fun.
So you think it's his fault?
No.
Nobody knew what he felt. He didn't give anything.
He was just sort of there.
You'd try to play with him, you know, get him to play around...
or get him to laugh or get him to smile or get him to...
I don't know... get mad.
But nothin'.
Just like, uh, he was already dead.
I used to know a guy like that.
- Hey. - Hi.
It's Arnie's birthday.
I need to go home.
- Thank you. - Thank you.
Give my regards to your mother.
- Hey, Amy, look who's here. - Where you been?
- You all right? - Yeah, I'm all right. - He's alive.
Amy?
Where's Arnie?
Amy. Please, Amy.
Is he okay?
I think you better ask him that yourself.
Where is he?
I wonder where he could be.
Amy?
Have you seen Arnie?
Um, no, I thought he was with you.
- No. - No?
No.
Arnie?
Arnie? Anybody seen Arnie?
Where's my brother?
Boo!
Boo.
Come here.
You scared me, buddy.
You scared Gilbert. Don't scare Gilbert, okay?
- Don't scare Gilbert, okay? - Okay.
Come here.
Who's got you?
You better talk to Mama.
Mama?
What you did was...
He's a helpless boy, Gilbert.
And then disappearing like that?
I hate that.
You know how I hate that.
You walked out, and I thought...
I can't take another.
But you came back, Gilbert.
Why?
Why did you?
I don't know, Mama.
I'm here now. I'm here now.
Yes, you are.
You came back for the party.
Oh, Gilbert.
I can't imagine how it's been for you kids.
I know what a burden I am.
Don't say that.
I know it.
And I know that you're ashamed of me.
No, I'm not.
I never, never meant to be like this.
I never wanted to be a joke.
- You're no joke, Mama. - I never wanted to be.
You're no joke.
- You're no joke. - Oh, Gilbert.
Please don't disappear. Please don't disappear.
- Hurry! Hurry! - You're really growing up to be quite a young lady.
- Thanks. - Hey. Hi. - Hey.
You know, I don't want to rain on the day here...
but you have a serious foundation problem.
You see how this... the porch is slanted right here?
I mean, this is a serious problem, Gilbert. We need to get up underneath here...
First of all, we need to fill this in so that no more water collects here.
And then we'll probably... What?
- Hi. - Hi.
- Hello, Gilbert. - Nana.
- You ready? - For what?
I want you to... I want you to come meet somebody.
Okay.
- Hey! - Hi, Arnie. - Hi.
- Here's your present. - Arnie, what do you say?
Thank you!
Mama?
Mama, I want you to meet somebody.
- No! - Please?
- Just this once, for me? - Gilbert, it's okay.
- We can do it later. - No. This is what I want.
Do it for me, please?
This is different. Nobody's gonna laugh.
I'm not gonna hurt you any more, Mama.
I promise.
Please.
Okay.
Okay. Becky?
Mama, this is Becky.
- Hello. - Hi.
I haven't always been like this.
- I'm called a miracle. - You're a miracle?
- I'm a miracle. - A walking miracle. I can believe that.
I'm just gonna put this up here.
- Uh, bye. - Goodbye, Arnie.
- Bye. - You take care.
I had a really nice time.
I know.
- I don't know what to say. - Say, "Thank you," Gilbert.
Say, "Thank you."
Thank you.
- Goodbye. - No, it's not goodbye, Arnie.
It's goodnight. Goodnight... Goodnight to you, but not me.
Hey, they're coming!
Bye! Wait!
Mama?
Mama, what are you doing?
To work in Danny's office.
I thought you'd be pleased.
Oh, I am pleased.
So close your eyes.
Amy? Amy?
You rest, Mama.
You deserve to rest.
Amy, get me my birthday boy.
- I want my birthday boy. - Okay.
Here, Mama. Here's the water.
Gilbert.
You're my knight in shimmering armour.
Did you know that?
I think you mean shining.
No. Shimmering.
You shimmer and you glow.
You rest, okay? Get some sleep.
Hey!
Mama!
Mama! Mama!
Wake up!
You're hiding, huh?
I know that.
Wake up!
Mama, wake up!
Mama, stop it now!
Stop, Mama!
Stop it.
Arnie? Arnie?
What's wrong?
What's wrong? Stop it!
Gilbert!
- Arnie! - Don't... Give me... Stop!
Mom!
I'm gonna need some more men, Amy.
Hey, flash the lights. Flash 'em.
You may need the National Guard to move her out of there.
I'm sorry about that.
l-It's gonna take a crane to get her out.
There's gonna be a crowd.
I just know there's gonna be a crowd.
She's so beautiful.
She's no joke. She's no joke.
I'm not gonna let her be a joke.
Arnie.
We're gonna need your help.
Gilbert, is that them?
No. No, not yet.
- When are they gonna come? - Pretty soon.
Pretty soon.
My brother Arnie's about to turn 19.
Nineteen.
Gilbert, look there!
Amy got a job offer to manage a bakery in Des Moines.
- Is that them? - Yeah, that's them.
Ellen can't wait to switch schools.
Arnie asked if we were gonna go, too, and I said...
"Well, we can go anywhere if we want.
- Becky! - We can go anywhere."
Becky's comin', huh, Gilbert?
Yep. She's comin'.
Becky!
Come on! Come on, Gilbert.
Hey!
Hi! Hi.
Hi! Hi!
- I'm fine. - Hi! - How are you?
