day by day, moment by moment
takin' my chances
trustin' my heart
it wasn't too smart
i will survive, i will endure
when the going's rough, you can be sure
l'll tough it out, i won't give in
if l'm knocked down, l'll get up again
as long as my dream's alive
i will survive
all right. Come on, now.
"Z"...
"e"...
okay.
"R"...
"o."
That's it.
I can help you dig your hole
so you won't be so tired to teach me.
No, i'm fine.
Look... you're a slow digger.
[Laughs] You're trying to bag on me.
- Yeah, i'm trying to bag on you. - All right.
All right.
This way, we'll be done at the same time.
- Well, it couldn't hurt. - Yeah.
Go ahead.
"Z"...
"e"...
no.
This has to go out like this.
- That's an "r." okay? - Okay.
This one's easy..."o."
That's it.
You know, zero's not my real name.
It's not?
But even pendanski calls you zero.
My name's hector. Hector zeroni.
Nice to meet you, hector.
Nice to meet you.
[Both chuckle]
Zero: 26 letters.
So we can do five letters a day for four days,
and then six letters on the fifth day.
That's good math.
I'm not stupid. I know everyone thinks i am.
I just don't like answering stupid questions.
Right.
Yo, caveman, it must be kind of easy
working with your own personal slave and all, huh?
What's up, stupid?
Come on, squid.
Whatever, man.
"M"...
"o"...
"m."
We weren't always homeless.
I remember we used to live in a lot of different places.
And then... we didn't live anywhere.
It must have been hard.
Yeah.
My ma had problems,
but she would try so hard to make a better life for us.
Yeah.
She always used to say, "i love you more than air."
She couldn't take me everywhere she went.
I used to have to wait like on a porch or a playground.
[Sighs]
Then, one day, she didn't come back.
What happened to her?
[Sighs] I don't know.
That's what bothers me the most.
If i could,
i would hire a whole team of private investigators
just to find her...
or to find out what happened to her.
I used to wait at laney park.
- Laney park? - Yeah.
I used to go to laney park all the time.
- Oh, really? - Yeah.
I used to sleep in the tunnel next to the swinging bridge.
But no biggie.
[Sighs]
Dr. Pendanski: Let's go, boys! Lunch!
Where's your whip, caveman?
You don't want your slave to be slacking off.
It's not slavery. It's an agreement.
- Yeah, man, whatever. - Line 'em up.
I don't have all day. Let's go. Let's go.
We have bologna and cheese, apples, and graham crackers.
All right, let's move it along.
Get your sandwich. Hello, theodore.
That's not my name, fool. It's armpit.
Uh-huh. Alan, a good day to you.
Good afternoon.
Ricky...
sir.
Sandwiches?
- You can have one sandwich. - [Magnet speaking spanish]
This is america. We speak english here.
Hey, man, i got some extra graham crackers.
Hey, how about i give you my cookie
and you let me dig your hole?
Go on. Take it.
Look, i get it, all right?
I'll dig my own hole from now on.
Just let me eat my lunch.
[Laughing] he isn't gonna take it. Come here.
Eat the cookie.
- Whoa. - Whoa.
Back off, man.
Hey, hey, hey, hey, hey. What's going on here?
Nothing, mom.
We was just fooling, right?
I saw what was going on. Go on, stanley.
Teach him a lesson. Hit him back.
- Yeah, teach me a lesson. - Yeah, teach him a lesson.
- Come on. Hit me. - Hit him.
- Come on. Teach me a lesson. - Hit him, stanley.
[Boys murmuring]
Get him!
Dr. Pendanski: All right, all right.
Ugh!
Go get him.
That's enough!
[Grunting]
I said that's enough!
That's enough!
[Choking]
Stop. Hey, stop, zero. Hey, stop.
Come on, man. You're gonna kill him!
- [Gunshot] - Now, i said that's enough!
When i say to end something, i mean end it.
- Come on, stanley. Let's go. - Get back to your holes!
You all right?
- Zero's crazy. - No. Leave me alone.
Basically, zero almost killed ricky.
Basically?
Uh, uh, ziggy was beating up the caveman, right?
And then zero started choking zigzag.
I had to pull zero off of him.
Yeah, i mean, you know, zig just got a little hot.
Out in the sun all day, the blood starts to boil.
Is that what happened, zigzag?
Yep.
Like x-ray said, you know,
working all day out in the hot sun, you know,
while caveman sits around and does nothing.
Excuse me?
Caveman digs his hole just like everyone else.
- Sometimes. - Excuse me?
Ma'am, zero's been digging
a part of caveman's hole every day.
You're not digging holes no more?
Huh?
I'm teaching him how to read.
What?
He's a smart kid.
Smart? [Chuckles]
Oh, yeah?
Hey, zero, what does c-a-t spell?
Huh?
What's it spell?
Yeah, he's a real genius.
He's so stupid, he doesn't even know he's stupid.
Okay, from now on,
i don't want anyone digging anyone else's hole.
Is that clear?
And no more reading lessons.
Why? I mean, if the hole gets dug.
Who cares who's digging it, right?
You know why you're digging holes?
'Cause it's good for you. It teaches you a lesson.
If zero digs your hole for you,
you're not learning your lesson, are you?
Mr. Sir: Yeah. See that?
Why can't i still just dig my hole
and teach him how to read?
'Cause i said so.
We know you mean well, stanley.
But the mental stress
just causes his brain too much of a challenge.
That's what made his blood boil, not the hot sun.
I'm not digging any more holes.
Good.
I mean, you might as well teach this shovel to read.
Go ahead, zero. Take it.
It's all you'll ever be good for.
D-l-g.
What's that spell?
Ugh!
- Ohh! - Ohh!
Dig.
Go, zero! Go!
Run, zero!
Don't shoot! He can't go anywhere.
You think i was gonna shoot him?
The last thing we need is an investigation.
I know that.
Misinterpretation.
Let him go, then. Let him go.
I want round-the-clock guards on all water sources.
I still expect seven holes.
I'll have the chicken tenders, warden.
[Laughter]
I'm ill. I'm ill.
I'm feeling queasy. Take it or leave it.
You still pouting?
No, i'm not pouting.
I'm just asking,
are we sure that he had no family?
He was a ward of the state.
He was living on the streets when he was arrested.
Is there some prissy caseworker who might ask questions?
He had nobody. He was nobody.
I want you to destroy his records.
He was never here.
Can you get into the state files from our computer?
I can do anything, but i'm telling you,
no one is going to come looking for him.
No one cares about hector zeroni.
[Indistinct conversations in distance]
I do.
Mr. Sir: They was in this thing together.
Yeah.
[Sighs]
His blood's on your hands, then.
[Insects chirping]
Man, if he's not back by morning, he's dead.
He's dead either way...
if he stays out there or if he comes back.
When do you think they're gonna find his body?
What body?
Man, zero's buzzard food.
You know what?
They pick out the eyeballs first.
I can't believe you just said that.
[Laughter]
[Indistinct conversations]
Learn how to take a joke.
She left him stranded in the desert.
No water, no food for 16 days.
[Squeaking]
Well, grandpa, how'd he survive?
They said he found refuge on god's thumb.
What's god's thumb?
Who knows?
He was half crazy when they found him.
Zero!
[Indistinct conversations, clattering]
So, what you in here for, twitch?
Oh, ha, joyriding.
I guess you never really plan to steal one or nothing,
but when i walk past a really nice car...
whoo! ...i just start twitching, you know?
Really kind of... well, you think i'm jumpy now?
You should have seen me behind the wheel of that mustang.
Whoo! Vroom!
Come on, twitch. Let's go.
Hey, twitch, come get some water.
Mr. Sir: I'm getting tired...
first hole's the hardest.
Thanks, man.
Mr. Sir: I want you to jump out of that hole.
Be first in line right away.
I'm a little scratchy today,
so you got to be sensitive with me.
- Yeah, i apologize, mr. Sir. - Yeah, yeah.
Hey, man, i'm sick and tired of you cutting in line.
Man.
What's wrong with you? We all getting water.
Don't be squabbling up in here. Both of us getting it.
[Indistinct conversations]
Mr. Sir: Gentlemen, there's only one law around here,
and that's me.
You guys want to learn the tough lessons? Here.
- I'll give you a tough-guy... - [engine turns over]
Come on. Come on. Put it in gear.
Hey!
Wait!
Aaaah!
[All cheering]
Waahhh!
[Indistinct cheering]
You stop this truck... [muttering]
I'll kill you!
[North mississippi's allstars' "shake 'em on down" plays]
Wuh!
[Laughter]
[Screams]
Keep going, caveman!
Yelnats! Stop that truck!
Yelnats!
Whoo!
Bye-bye, camp green...
- my truck. - You okay?
Caveman!
You all right?
[Steam hissing]
You done it now! You done it now!
[Boys yelling indistinctly]
Get back away from that truck! Get away from the truck.
[Indistinct cheering]
Yeah!
- [Cheering continues] - Keep going! Don't stop!
Yeah, keep going!
There ain't gonna be no yelnats v!
[Cheering continues]
[Panting]
Whoa.
No, senor. Not for me.
Dr. Pendanski: I'm not gonna see what's not there.
Warden: All right, fill in this section here
and start digging over there in between.
What are you gonna do about caveman?
He ain't like zero. He's got family.
In two weeks, we'll report he's run away.
Call in dogs, helicopters... the whole nine yards.
By then, there'll be nothing left to find.
That's exactly right.
[Wind howling]
[Rattling]
Zero?
Huh?
Stanley.
What's up, man?
- How you doing? - All right.
Oh!
We thought you were gone.
I was.
Let me see. You don't look too bad.
You got any water?
No. I'm out.
Oh.
But, hey, you know the water truck?
I tried to drive the whole thing over here.
I drove it into a hole.
- Figures. - [Laughs]
What's in the bag?
Oh, it's empty.
No.
[Yawns]
Zero, we got to get back to camp.
I'm not going back.
Want some sploosh?
Some what?
Sploosh.
Come on, follow me. I'll show you.
- Some... - come on. [grunts]
Can't you get a door?
This is how i found it.
[Glass shatters, stanley coughs]
[Grunts]
- [Exhales deeply] - Here.
What is this?
Sploosh. That's what i call it.
- [Sniffs] - Drink it. It's good.
[Slurps]
[Lips smacking]
That is pretty good.
- Yeah. - Tastes like peaches.
How many of these you got left?
[Sighs] That's the last one.
[Exhales deeply] We need to go back to camp.
Wrap it up, get your bag, put this in there, and we'll go.
I'm not going back.
You will die out here.
Here's what we're gonna do. Okay?
We're gonna go back to camp.
And we're gonna tell the warden
exactly where i found kate barlow's lipstick tube.
And she'll be so happy, we won't get in any trouble.
Okay?
What's "mare-yelo"?
What are you talking about?
Mare-yelo.
- I don't know. - [Sighs]
Come on, dude.
Come on.
[Grunts]
[Exhales]
See?
- Oh, it's "mary lou." - Oh.
But i thought "y" made the "yuh" sound.
Yeah, well, it does at the beginning of a word,
but not at the end of...
a word.
See that mountain right there?
That one?
Yeah.
Huh.
What does that look like to you?
You know, my great-grandpa almost died out here.
- Really? - Yeah.
But they say he survived
because he made it to the top of god's thumb.
[Eagle-eye cherry's "don't give up" plays]
- You ready? - It's a long way.
Yeah. We better get up before dark.
Yeah.
[Whistles]
All our dreams are gone
with a loss of faith
- hey, stanley. - And we're still hanging on
- what do you think is up there? - Through another day
oh, i don't know. Probably a great big frosty-freeze.
Good. I could use a hot-fudge sundae.
You know what i keep thinking about?
Lmagine how fine this mary lou probably looked in a bikini.
- Oh! [breathes heavily] - Lt's hard to say
whoa.
Don't give up, never give up
we won't stop givin" all we got
don't give up, never give up
we won't stop givin' all we got
don't give up, never give up
we won't stop givin'
- come on! - All we got
don't give up, never give up
- don't look down, man. - We won't stop givin'
all we got
oh, my god.
You okay?
Come on, stanley. You can do it.
- Okay. - Come on.
Okay.
I'm coming.
You grab right there?
Yeah, look. That's where i got.
Whoa!
No, no, no, no! No.
Come on, come on, come on! Come on!
[Groaning]
[Groans]
Oh! [panting]
[Laughs]
Whoo!
Oh!
Look at that.
Look at this, man.
This isn't cool.
What happened?
[Grunts]
All right, hold on.
[Inhales sharply]
- Aah! - Is it numb or is it stinging?
It stings, man.
Don't think about it right now.
When we get to the top of the mountain,
i'm gonna get you a hot-fudge sundae, all right?
- I promise. - Good.
All that sploosh is getting to me.
Maybe he found zero.
Maybe they're both still alive.
Maybe the easter bunny and the tooth fairy
are still alive too.
Maybe my mom will stop drinking and my dad will come home.
Man, when caveman stole that truck...
that was awesome.
Yeah, man.
Caveman did have style.
- Give me another word. - R-o-c-k.
Rock?
Yep, that's right, man. You're doing good.
[Exhales deeply]
- Keep practicing. - [Coughing]
We're almost there. Come on.
- [Gags] - You all right?
[Vomits]
Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa!
- Zero! - [Groaning]
Zero, zero, zero, zero! Got you, got you, got you!
Got you. You good? You good? Hold on.
All right. All right. All right, hold on.
Hold on. Let me get in front of you.
Stay right there.
Okay. Here.
Slide this down. Okay. All right.
There you go.
Nice and comfy. [Exhales deeply]
[Weakly] stanley...
i got to tell you something, man.
What?
Huh?
Come on, zero.
Zero, zero.
[Gasps]
[Sighs] all right. We can't sit here.
Got to keep going.
We're gonna go get the shovel,
and we're gonna fill it full of ice cream.
Madame zeroni: You must carry madame zeroni up the mountain
and sing while i drink so i can get strong, too.
[Insects buzzing]
[Grunts] damn bugs.
[Straining] all right.
Wait a minute.
Wait.
If there's bugs, that must mean there's...
[water flowing]
...water.
[Laughs]
Hector, wake up, man!
Hector, wake up!
All right, buddy. All right.
There we go.
Wake up, hector, huh?
[Slurps and gasps]
Hector, wake up. Wake up.
[Laughs]
Ooh!
Oh! Oh!
[Breathes heavily]
Dude, this feels so good!
[Squeals]
We made it!
Stanley!
- Ah, ha ha! - Hector, we made it, buddy!
Whoo! Whoo-hoo-hoo!
Cool, cool, cool!
What are you doing?
[Crunches]
Here. Try this.
Try this.
What is it?
It's a hot-fudge sundae. Just eat it.
- It's good, huh? - Mmm. Yeah!
That's the sweetest onion i ever tasted.
Mmm.
[Sighs]
"If only, if only," the woodpecker sighs
"the bark on the tree was as soft as the skies"
as the wolf waits below hungry and lonely
cries to the moon, "if only, if only"
"if only, if only," the woodpecker...
[sniffs]
[Sniffs]
[Sniffs deeply]
Honey... would you smell the shoe?
Oh, my god, honey.
Can't you just wait till i'm finished eating?
I know i've asked you a million times...
just a million and one more.
- Smell the shoe. - [Sighs]
[Sniffs]
- Honey, i don't smell anything. - What?
I don't smell anything.
Uh-huh.
Pa... what do you smell?
Nothing.
Peaches and onions. That's the secret.
I don't smell anything.
You don't smell anything.
I don't smell anything.
- Whoo, i don't smell anything. - Smell anything.
Both: [chanting] We don't smell anything.
I told you i was on the brink...
- i don't smell anything. - Of no stink.
I don't smell anything.
- I don't smell... - i don't smell anything!
Stanley doesn't smell anything!
- I don't smell anything! - Oh, no!
[Footsteps approaching]
Mm-mmm.
Rise and shine, onion man.
Been farting all night. I can't sleep.
I think you overslept.
How long have i been sleeping?
A long time.
Stanley, i got to tell you something.
What?
It's my fault you were sent to camp green lake.
I stole the shoes.
[Sighs] i didn't know they were sweetfeet's.
[Indistinct talking]
I mean, a lot of people donated, um,
all their old stuff to the homeless shelter.
And i saw the shoes, and i just...
i liked them.
I didn't know they were famous.
Next thing i know, everyone's bugging out...
"the shoes are gone!
- [Siren wails] - Where are the shoes?"
Walking down the street,
i heard the sirens coming after me.
I got scared.
[Thud]
[Sighs]
I end up getting busted the next day,
lifting a pair of shoes from a payless.
[Chuckles]
That's destiny.
[Chuckles]
Hey, yo, check it out.
Maybe they're coming for caveman's body.
Jaguar. That's a nice car.
Don't even think about it, twitch.
Morengo: Back up! You can't keep him from me.
- I'm stanley's attorney. - I don't care if you are.
You have no rights, okay?
We have a right to protect our kids!
Come back here with a signed court order.
What kind of malarkey is this?
I'm telling you, i'm not done with him.
I'm not done with you... that's right.
"Excuse me!"
[Door slams, engine turns over]
We ain't seen the last of her. She'll be back.
[Sighs]
And next time with a court order.
We'll just tell her the truth...
he ran away.
Right?
He ran away after he was told he was gonna be released?
Been almost three days. He's a goner for sure.
What are we gonna do?
You'll do as i say.
What did she say?
Not much.
What'll we do?
You'll do as i say.
But you didn't say anything either.
Hector...
i'm glad you stole those shoes and threw them on my head.
What?
None of this would have happened.
When i first got sent to camp green lake...
i thought i got sent there because of my family's curse.
But we're not even at camp anymore.
You know, we're on god's thumb.
[Chuckles]
I just have this weird feeling...
...everything's cool.
- Yeah. Same here. - You got the same feeling?
Same feeling.
It's a good one.
You know, those stars look like a shovel to me.
Exactly.
Hector...
what's up?
I feel lucky.
[Chuckles]
The onions have gone to your head.
What do you say we dig one more hole?
[Metal rattles]
[Sighs]
Barlow: It's so hot, sam...
but i feel so cold.
[Gasps, laughs]
Sam...
i can fix that.
Oh.
[Footsteps approaching, gun cocks]
You got five seconds to tell me where you buried your loot!
[Gun cocks]
I've been waiting for you, trout.
I ain't gonna kill you.
Go on.
Where's your loot?!
There ain't no loot.
Don't give me that.
You robbed every bank from hell to houston.
We saw you headin' back with the shovel, miss katherine.
Linda miller, is that you?
I've been linda walker for the last 13 years.
One.
Aw, linda, you were such a good student.
You must have married him for his money. [chuckles]
- Well, it's all gone now! - Two!
It's dried up with the lake!
Hasn't rained here since the day they killed sam.
You better tell him what he wants! He's a desperate man!
Three...
go on. Kill me.
The lake goes on for miles.
I ain't gonna kill you.
But by the time i'm finished with you,
you gonna wish you was dead.
[Chuckles]
I've been wishing i was dead for a long time.
You... your children, and your children's children...
will dig for the next 100 years,
and you will never find it.
[Hisses]
- Look out! - [Gunshot]
[Chuckles]
Come here, sweetheart.
Start digging, trout.
[Gasps, moans softly]
[Laughs]
[Breathing rapidly]
Come on!
Ready?
You see right there?
- That's it? - Yeah.
Book!
Is this the hole?
Yeah, this is it.
- Are you sure? - Yeah, i'm positive.
It's gonna take too long, man. I got to go find another shovel.
- All right. Be careful, though. - All right.
Of course she's gonna make you pay for it.
Now you're accusing me of doing something!
You think i did this to my own truck?
You left the keys inside of a truck in front of a...
this is a juvenile work camp with juvenile delinquents.
Don't get me heated because i... don't insult me!
A truck with a tank full of gas?
I said, "get me a wrench." Did i say, "get me a wrench"?
All right, fine, i'll get you a wrench.
Get me a wrench!
- You dumb... - read my lips! Get me a wrench!
I'm gettin' it, you sideburned neanderthal!
- I ain't here to be a mechanic! [Thud]
- Aah! Don't you throw nothing at me!
Whoa! Man, you really been working.
Yeah. [exhales deeply]
Coming down.
Go.
[Grunts] How's it going?
Who knows? I could be digging up diamonds and not see 'em.
I don't think kissin' kate barlow
would have buried her treasure this deep.
Come on. We got to make it wider.
How do we know one of her gang didn't dig up the treasure?
We don't.
[Thud]
Did you hear that?
[Thud]
What's this?
[Thudding]
Watch out. Watch out.
Hoo hoo!
We found it!
[Laughs] Come on, come on, come on!
[Grunts]
This is it!
What did i say?! What did i say?!
Oh, man!
Thank you, boys. You've been a big help.
- [Sighs] - Mr. Sir: Oh, jeez!
- [Gasps] - Get back!
- Oh, my god. - [Screams]
Oh ho. Ho ho.
- Don't... move. - [Lizards hissing]
Well, get in there. Pull it out.
You get in there.
Fine. I'll just wait.
Won't take long.
No, it won't take long.
- Oh, my goodness! - [Stanley whimpers]
- Yeah, check it out. - Oh, my god.
Oh!
Here we go.
Hey, stanley, guess what. You're innocent.
Your lawyer came by yesterday to get you.
Too bad you weren't there.
Zero: Don't listen to him, stanley.
At least now we'll have a body to give her.
- [Whimpers] - What about zero?
[Hisses]
Zero was never here.
We got lots of holes to choose from.
Do you know how long i've been waiting for this?
My granddaddy owned the whole lake,
then it dried up.
He drove himself crazy out here digging holes.
Made me dig, too... even on christmas.
[Digging]
Walker: All righty. Today's the day.
I'm tired of this, grandpa.
That's too damn bad! You keep digging!
Well, excuse me.
You'll thank me one day.
[Inhales, clears throat]
[Lizards hissing]
Maybe we should just shoot them.
The lizards or the kids?
You don't want to shoot any of those lizards.
They'll start leaping all over the place.
I just want to know why they haven't been bitten yet.
Mr. Sir: Oh, crap.
Oh, for pete's sake. That can't be her already.
Well, it ain't the girl scouts selling cookies.
All right, keep holding the boys in the mess hall.
Tell them not to talk to anyone.
As long as they keep their mouths shut,
they won't have to dig any more holes.
But if they talk... they'll be severely punished.
What should i tell them
we're gonna do to 'em if they do talk?
Use your imagination.
Go on!
Ugh!
Mr. Sir: I just don't get it.
Nothing makes sense anymore around here.
- Stanley. - What?
Is your last name your first name spelled backwards?
Yeah.
We wanted to call,
but the phone lines go down out here sometimes.
Well, you could have tried harder.
You can always reach me.
We did. We called several times.
Don't go no further! It's danger!
- Where's stanley? - I'll tell you.
He broke into my cabin about an hour ago.
I woke up and saw him running out with my trunk.
They ran out here.
I don't know what the hell they were thinking!
Dr. Pendanski: I witnessed it myself, counselor.
Don't go too close!
[Gasps] oh, my god!
Earl: Don't move.
How long have they been down there?
Have you tried to get them out?
Well, just what do you suggest, counselor?
Well, this wouldn't have happened
if you had released him to me yesterday.
Excuse me. This wouldn't have happened if he wasn't a thief.
What?
- A thief? - That's right.
- Earl: Oh, back up. - Oh! [gasps]
Those things'll bite.
That's a lie!
Zero: Stanley didn't steal anything!
[Grunts]
Thank god.
- Thank god you're okay! - What are you doing?
It's stanley's. What are you doing? Let go!
You've been caught red-handed.
I could send stanley right back to prison if i pressed charges.
However, in view of all the circumstances,
- i think i'll just take... - it has his name on it!
What?
- No, it doesn't! - Let go!
- Oh, my god. - You see?
"Stanley... yelnats."
He can't read.
That's not possible.
[Chuckles]
Morengo: Stanley, i'm taking you home.
Let's go.
Come on, zero. We're getting out of here.
- What did you do? - Come on.
Get your hands back. Come on, get your hands off.
- No, i have to look inside. - Get your hands off.
This is mine, it was on my property,
and you are a thief!
My granddaddy...
stanley, come on.
Put your things in the trunk.
Your parents are waiting. Let's go.
I can't leave without hector.
I'll be okay.
Stanley, there is nothing that i can do for your friend.
Don't worry.
We'll take good care of hector.
I'm not leaving here without him.
Earl, would you please get me hector's file?
Most certainly, carla. Ms. Walker...
well?
Get me the file of hector zeroni.
Well, just do it.
They're alive!
What are you gonna say?
Think of something.
- Caveman! Hey, zero! - What's up, zero?
- What's up? - What's up, man?
I can't believe you guys made it.
Oh, man! We thought you were buzzard food.
No, i'm not. I'm going home.
- Going home? - Man, you stink, dude.
What you been eating, man?
You smell like onions!
[Indistinct talking and laughter]
- Whoo! - Well, uh...
...there seems to be no file of...
- hector zeroni. - What?
Is that so?
What kind of a camp you running here?
A nice one.
If the state would give us some money,
then we'd have some decent filing.
I am ordering an investigation of this facility.
Hey, lady, you got a pen and paper i could borrow?
No, i don't. But it looks like he does.
Yeah. You got a pen?
Yeah. Here.
Here's a pencil.
You got paper?
Um... here.
[Sighs] Here you go.
Thanks.
You're welcome.
Hey, call my mom.
What?
- Tell her i said i was sorry. - [Paper rips]
Tell her, "theodore said he was sorry."
I will, man.
- Thanks, man. - I will. I definitely will.
Marion sevillo.
Oh, crap.
It's been a long time since el paso, marion.
[Laughter]
You're in violation of your parole, carrying this weapon.
I had no knowledge of that.
Oh, yeah, just like you didn't know
pendanski wasn't no doctor, neither.
[Laughter]
What?
Sit down, marion. You're under arrest again.
Marion? Tell you, i didn't know that was a man's name.
[Laughter]
It ain't.
- Ooh! - Ooh!
- Okay... - [beeps]
This facility is now under our jurisdiction.
- What? - Boys...
put these three bozos right over there.
Let them see the other side of the criminal justice system.
- Excuse me? - [Cheering]
Don't push me! I'm a lady!
Come on, hector.
You're coming with us. Let's go.
Let's go, boss.
[Thunder crashes]
What's that?
- Oh! - Oh!
It's rain!
Ahh!
[Cheering]
Whoo!
Hector!
Stanley!
Come on!
You be careful out there in the real world, all right?
Everyone's not as friendly as us.
Hold on for me.
We'll miss you, man!
All right, guys. Be good!
Keep your head up!
We'll miss you!
- All right! - Stanley...
stanley, won't you just open it?
Just let me see what's inside it, please.
Excuse me?
- Earl: Have a seat over here. - "D" tent!
See you again! We'll see you!
"D" tent!
You have the right to remain silent.
If you give up that right, anything you say can
and will be used against you in a court of law.
You have the right to be represented by an attorney.
If you cannot afford one, the court...
okay, one more thing...
no matter what is in this box...
we are still family.
- We are the yelnats. - Okay.
We know.
- One... - cross your fingers.
- Two... - two...
- three. - Honey, you've still got it.
You are so strong.
Stanle y ii: Oh, my god!
- Yeah? - Oh, mama.
Oh, boy.
Oh, my goodness.
Let me see that.
- Sure. - Look at this.
Okay, guys, hold on. Hold on.
Before we do anything, i think that it's only fair
that half of whatever is in this box
goes to my best friend, hector zeroni.
Aw... you want to go halfsies? Well...
did you say zeroni?
Sure did.
[Laughs]
[Smooches]
Oh, my god!
Is that really worth $25,000?
Hold on. Check the date, though.
At&t.
1905.
What's it worth, honey?
It's worth a lot more now. Millions.
Millions?
- Millions. - Stanle y ii: Millions.
One for us... one for mr. Zeroni.
- [Laughs] - One for us...
one for mr. Zeroni.
Boys.
Do good, bro.
- Right this way, ma'am. - Thank you.
[Chuckles]
[Sniffling]
I love you. I love you.
Stanle y iv: So hector was able to hire
his own team of private investigators.
Turns out his mom had been looking for him, too.
I love you.
[Sniffles]
And that's how the great-great grandson
of elya yelnats
and the great-great-great-grandson
of madame zeroni became next-door neighbors.
Camp green lake was closed
and the boys released for time served
and sent to real counselors.
They say camp green lake will be reopened soon
as a girls' camp.
At least they won't have to worry about lizards anymore...
just as long as the girls eat lots of onions.
Come on, everybody! Out of the pool!
It's showtime! Book it out!
Come on, boys! Hurry! Hurry! It's on!
It's on!
Come on!
Sit down, sit down.
To my fans, i'm known as sweetfeet...
but to my wife, i was known as...
stinkyfeet.
None of his teammates ever wanted to sit
- next to him in the dugout. - [Laughter]
But that's all over now, thanks to sploosh.
I just spray a little on each foot every morning...
and now he really does have sweet feet.
Sploosh! Now available in the sweetfeet collectible decanter.
A product of k.b. Industries.
Plus, i like the tingle.
[Cheering]
The world we know was built on skills
i guess you have to fill in the rest of the holes yourself.
Without the sweat and toil of mine
wouldn't be worth a dime
you got to live and give
share and care
really put some love in the air
when your neighbor's down got to pick him up
nobody can live in despair
everybody, let's sing, sing, sing
let freedom ring
everybody, let's...
let's all pitch in do our thing
make a better world to live in
everybody, let's sing, sing, sing
let freedom ring

make a better world to live in

[introduction to fiction plane's "if only" plays]
The old man's been stealing
she's holding a grievance for a hundred-odd years
we all keep believing
that history repeats itself year after year
all i fear is that the future is worse
we have to give in to a hundred-year curse
sweat in the sun like we're digging a grave
dig deep enough and our fortune we'll save
"if only, if only," the woodpecker sighs
"the bark on the trees was as soft as the skies"
as the wolf waits below hungry and lonely
he cries to the moon, "if only, if only"
chasing the skirt of a beautiful wife
you'll make mistakes and it's my back that breaks
and forever my past steals my life
to submission l'm beat
but there's hope beneath these feet
blisters and blood and the sun makes you blind
you don't let it eat you can't help but be kind
'cause you know what's important
with your back to the wall
you can break metal chains
you and your friends won't let you fall
"if only, if only," the woodpecker sighs
"the bark on the trees was as soft as the skies"
as the wolf waits below hungry and lonely
he cries to the moon, "if only, if only"
[lmitating madame zeroni] But if you forget to come back
for madame zeroni,
you and your family will be cursed for always and eternity.
