A community where families have lived for generations...
A little fresh air wouldn't hurt.
A lot of guys would buy that so their kids wouldn't get mad at them.
A product of your image and that of those who share your image.
A remarkable comeback by Jarrett. The first team that scores, wins...
A secret? Like your sister and the Coca Cola salesman?
Abbott, there's a trainer for the Rams named Max Corkle.
About disliking his hats, you'd let us know.
Against our canning factory for destroying porpoises.
All of a sudden, I don't feel like going to a party,
All right. I'll build my refinery in some other place.
All right. Sit down. Conway, turn that thing on.
All right. You take the inside.
Along with a petition signed by the 1 ,673 citizens of that area.
Am I glad to see you. Line up any bodies yet?
Am I missing something?
An athlete in prime condition. What can I say?
An escort from his way station gets a signal.
And all of a sudden, you're drunk.
And asks if she might have a moment of your time.
And destroy most of southern California?
And he acted like he'd seen you before,
And he asked her to marry him.
And I hope God makes you first string.
And I thought maybe if... I mean...
And I'd say, Yes, it is.
And in netting the tuna, we kill a number of porpoises.
And nobody's going to take that away from us.
And now for your hat, sir.
And now he's vanished, disappeared.
And only a crazy trainer would arrange a tryout for you.
And some bean curd and spinach.
And take him up to his way station?
And that's your opinion, too, Mr. Sisk?
And then he'd say something like,
And they can take away the money and the cheers.
And we'll already have won!
And we'll keep this little misunderstanding to ourselves.
And when I've gone, you won't remember me.
And you know now that this is not a dream.
And, Abbott, Corkle's number is 654 1654. All right?
Answer him.
Any kind of painkiller?
Any time you want to chime in... why, just feel free.
Anything you committed yourself to do, you could do.
Are to be evicted from their homes
Are you all right?
Are you all right? Can I trust you? Yes, dearest?
Are you crazy? What kind of questions are you asking?
Are you in there, Mr. Farnsworth?
Are you kidding? Put me into the body of another man?
Are you telling me...?
Are you telling me...?
As everybody knows, we can tuna,
Ask me whatever you want...?
At last, at last. At last, my dearest.
At the beck and call of industrialists like yourself,
Back! Throw! Throw the ball! Touchdown, Joe.
Ball! Ball! Ball!
Beautiful!
Because I'm a big wheel at Exo Grey?
Because if two big companies get together, they're worth more money?
Because its his time, Joe. It's his destiny.
Because we'll come out ahead in the long run.
Bentley! Everett! We're going out and eat. Good idea.
Bentley! Whip up a liver and whey shake right away!
Bentley. Everett. Miss Logan's going to have dinner with us.
Boy, you pulled it off.
Built in safety system that guarantees no danger of any kind.
Bullshit!
But can't something be legal but still wrong?
But he never told you he disliked them.
But he's new and figures the guys a goner.
But I feel I must tell you what an extraordinary thing you did today.
But I was so sure, and it looked like it would be painful.
But if you think you can treat women with the same contempt
But it never touched our marriage. That's what made it so special.
But it was never violent.
But nobody will ever take that away from you.
But outwardly, you're Leo Farnsworth, and that's what everyone else sees.
But you're not even separated.
Buying a football team for 67 million that has a book value of 19?
By poisoning of their air and water,
By the end of the week, I'll crack this case.
By the way, I'm getting a divorce.
Christ, I can't even snap my fingers any more. Sorry.
Closed is fine. Thank you.
Come in, Sisk.
Come on, guys, get him, get him!
Come on. What are you trying to do to me, huh?
Congratulations. Here he is, Coach...
Corkle. What are you doing, closing up the joint?
Could stimulate seismic activity in the San Andreas Fault,
Could you call and ask him to come see me?
Could you wait here? I'll be right back.
Darling, I'm going to let you go.
Darling, its not true. I don't hate you. I love you.
Darling, perhaps I'm being silly, but I'd be more comfortable...
Describe your feelings.
Despite the lawsuit forcing you to delay until the effects are tested.
Did he? Perhaps I should have a word with him.
Do the words not being a good sport mean anything to you?
Do you plan to do anything?
Do you think he's playing that saxophone? It's a tape.
Do you think its silly, trying to be a football player?
Do you...? Do you wish the door closed, sir?
Do your best. I gotta find out what she wants.
Does your eye hurt?
Don't let any of Mr. Farnsworth's racial statements offend you.
Don't put your hand over my mouth.
Don't think you're getting away with this. You're not!
Don't try it!
Don't worry about the plays. I got them down last night.
Even when I was trying to hate you, I saw something else.
Every question of life and death is a probability until the outcome.
Every time he crossed his legs, you could see his ankles were bare!
Everybody's suing us. We got a lawsuit from a refinery...
Excuse me, ladies and gentlemen, I'd like to make something clear.
Excuse me. Where might I find Max Corkle?
Excuse yourself and keep Sisk with you at all times...
Facts that would make interesting newspaper copy.
Fall into it. All right. Come on, baby.
Farnsworth said his wife and Tony Abbott were trying to kill him.
Farnsworth's wife and secretary murdered him.
Feel free. I'm telling you to feel free!
Feel that. That's a 50 cent piece.
Fine.
For 18 touchdowns.
For whom the elderly and children are just figures in a ledger.
Forget these nuclear power plants until we know they're safe.
Formation left. Screen right on 2. Ready?
From Pagglesham in England.
Gentlemen, what's the delay?
Get a doctor. You got a guy drowning in the bathtub.
Get rid of that ball fast, all right?
Give me a drink.
Give me a little more room, Billy.
Go back up the way you came,
Good luck, Mr. Farnsworth.
Happy birthday to you Happy birthday to you
Happy birthday, dear Joe Happy birthday to you
Happy birthday, dear Joe Happy birthday to you
Happy birthday, Joe.
Have I offended you in some way?
He doesn't believe me.
He figures, why should I have the car hit him?
He goes down and waits for the outcome.
He might want to pretend to give him cocoa, too.
He never really inhaled it. He overheard us somehow.
He pretended not to know what a stockholder was!
He puts him in line for his final destination. You follow?
He takes off and sees a guy riding a bicycle into a tunnel.
He took a coin out of my ear.
He was a lecherous sadist. Everyone wanted him dead.
He wasn't fooling around. If he was alive, he'd be here.
He would have kept his word.
He would say or do anything to make a conquest,
He wouldn't have hit the car at all.
He'll be all right. That's something about Farnsworth.
He'll never believe me, you tell him.
He's an athlete with fantastic reflexes.
He's an eccentric. We've always known that.
He's been drugged by those two downstairs. This is a murder.
He's dead. It's over with.
He's getting ready to spring a trap. This whole thing.
He's looking awful good.
He's not expecting me. Can I just walk in?
He's not there. Don't get crazy. I'm counting on you.
He's probably got enough evidence to lock us away forever.
He's right over there, sir.
He's the only person who can get me a tryout with the Rams.
He's too short. He'd never see over the line.
He's toying. He won't forget being drugged.
Helen Rich from The Times. I have a petition from Pagglesham.
Hell play quarterback in Wednesdays scrimmage.
Hello. I'm going into the living room.
Here, give me your hand.
Here's Lamar Crawford, the man who caught one of those key passes.
Here's the star, Tom Jarrett. He led his team to victory.
Hey, Benny! Hey, Joe! Uh, Tom!
Hey, get a doctor. There's a guy...
Hey, somebody, get...!
Hey, somebody! You got...
Hey, son, you... You played a hell of a game.
Hi. How you doing, everybody?
Hi. I... I'm just...
His number wasn't up for years. He would have missed the car.
How I'd feel if I couldn't be with you.
How long will it be before they find him?
How would you feel about marrying me?
How you doing, Everett? How you doing, Bentley?
How you doing?
How'd you do it this time? Drug him like before?
However, I know about your board meeting on Thursday,
Hundreds of families will be forced to find other homes.
Hurry up. Wait a minute. just a minute, please. All right.
Hustle back, hustle back. Come on, guys. Come on.
I assume if Mr. Farnsworth told you
I can do it. I know more about getting into shape than anybody.
I can't even think how to retort
I can't tell if he's toying with me or actually precipitating a crisis.
I couldn't resist. His will is too strong.
I didn't because I like g****s. A lot of guys will keep eating tuna.
I didn't know whether you knew that. I'm sorry he's not down yet.
I didn't know you played that thing.
I didn't think anybody knew. Thanks for coming, Max.
I do this to keep my abductor pollicis limber.
I don't doubt that.
I don't frighten anybody.
I don't have a lot of patter with it.
I don't know if I'm ever going to get a chance to do it.
I don't know what that means.
I don't know you well enough for you to hurt me.
I don't know, darling. Not long.
I don't need a turn. I'm not boarding.
I don't understand this. I saw him inhale the nose spray.
I don't want that body we talked about.
I don't want to disturb him, but dare I let it get cold?
I got to study tonight.
I gotta call the plays in English.
I guess it has something to do with Joe Pendleton.
I guess you went offsides.
I guess, if they're good. I mean, why not?
I have the situation in hand. Joe, if you don't take your place,
I have to go now, Joe. It's time. I can't stay here any longer.
I haven't the faintest...
I hear you got all Joe Pendleton1 athletic equipment.
I hope they got the best football team in America in heaven,
I just didn't think you'd want people to see you out with a guy like me.
I just got my body back in shape.
I just got to straighten something out.
I just throw that into that hand, you see.
I kept my word to Betty Logan. Did you find a body in good shape?
I knew it! I knew it!
I know about Pagglesham...
I know you're not afraid of me.
I mean, what are you talking about, Joe?
I never knew that.
I never saw a knee like that heal without surgery.
I never went back on a deal, but I am now. I'm not going.
I notice there are two cups.
I put a little whey in it, then mix it with a little alfalfa sprouts,
I say the magic words, Abracadabra, and then presto, its gone.
I see.
I seem to be staring at you, too.
I shall have to take charge of this case personally.
I should have known I couldn't trust you.
I still know the moves. just help me with the body.
I think I can explain something that'll clear this whole thing up.
I think we got us a rich quarterback.
I think we should do it right away.
I think you'd have to define destroy.
I took him out... just before the accident.
I want a check out on Joseph Pendleton.
I want a drink now! Tony...
I want the whole staff to suit up. We're going into training.
I want to get out of here.
I want to know what you're going to do about Pagglesham.
I want to play quarterback and get in shape for the Super Bowl.
I want to run a split right, X go, Z curl, a Y straight.
I want to see some bodies.
I want you to get me a tryout with the Rams.
I wanted it, but something happened with Betty Logan and now I don't.
I wanted to discuss the Haitian arrangement. The 2.5 million acres.
I was going to meet a bunch of people, have a party...
I was mad to sign a prenuptial agreement.
I was watching the TV, and I said, That's him!
I wish the marshmallow would last longer.
I won't pay for your mistake.
I won't tell a word to anybody. I promise. It'll be our little secret.
I won't. I'm just not going to do it.
I would just like to ask you a question.
I'd like to buy it. I'd like to bring it in here.
I'd like to help, but not as Farnsworth.
I'll be in the other room if you need me, sir. Excuse me.
I'll be the first suspect when we kill him.
I'll confess she did it! She's been planning it for years!
I'll get an allowance. You'll be fired.
I'll get Corkle to help me.
I'll get Farnsworth into shape.
I'll never get away with this. What will we do now?
I'm afraid I haven't fully explained how this system is organised.
I'm doing fine. Thank you very much. Very well.
I'm dreaming, huh?
I'm following a line of questioning.
I'm going to get my body back. Where's my body?
I'm going to let you go now. Please stop screaming.
I'm gonna play in the Super Bowl.
I'm in the middle of a really weird dream.
I'm just a trainer. What you need is a really good doctor.
I'm just acting crazy.
I'm just happy that we won.
I'm memorising your face. I want to memorise everything about you
I'm Mr. Farnsworth's personal and private executive secretary.
I'm not going. I'm going to run around till I wake up.
I'm not leaving until you've heard what I have to say.
I'm not leaving, Mr. Jordan.
I'm not really Leo Farnsworth.
I'm not supposed to be fair, you are. I didn't make any mistake.
I'm sick of hats. Don't show me any more hats. Understand?
I'm sorry, I want to get into shape with this body.
I'm sorry, sir. It's Miss Logan to see Mr. Farnsworth.
I'm sorry. I didn't think, Corkle.
I'm sorry. I just can't stop staring at you.
I'm starting against Dallas on Sunday.
I'm still figuring out what I'll say.
I'm sure you're aware of that, and you'll take your place with the others.
I'm terribly sorry, Mr. Farnsworth. This is really embarrassing.
I'm the guy that got hit in the head. You sure you're all right, Corkle?
I'm thinking of starting him on Sunday.
I'm Tony Abbott, Mr. Farnsworth's personal private executive secretary.
I'm trying to get Farnsworth into shape.
I've been to his office. He refused to see me.
I've been working my whole life to get a chance to do something...
I've brought the final passenger. This manifest is complete.
I've come 8,000 miles to do something about a terrible injustice
I've got to get in shape. I'd like you to help me train.
I've made it my business to find out about Exo Grey Industries.
If he dies, he takes him back to his way station.
If he weren't going to be dead soon, he'd need years of psychiatric help.
If I don't hit Evans, I'll quit. Ready?
If I get him a tryout,
If I got a board meeting tomorrow,
If I had to be Farnsworth, could we do it temporary?
If it costs too much, we charge a penny more.
If its supposed to be a secret, how does the rumour start?
If Mr. Farnsworth doesn't see me, I don't know what I'll do.
If some day somebody came up to you, maybe a football player,
If that's what you've got coming.
If the guy lives, the escort wasted a trip.
If there's no danger, why are we in a lawsuit?
If we were a football team, would you call this a winning season?
If you don't watch how your t****zius goes into your deltoids,
If you really want to help her, you'd better hurry.
If you violate the rules, the principles...
If you win this one, you're going to be champions of the world.
In September, I told you the beginning of this season!
In your eyes. Does that sound silly?
Increases in proportion to how much others try to prove him wrong.
Incredibly graceful. He's about your age and in perfect condition.
Is he kidding?
Is it true that an accident in your nuclear plant
Is it true that the new factories will displace 11 communities?
Is something wrong?
Is the wicket bugged?
Isn't destroyed in the name of free enterprise.
It doesn't look good.
It scares the hell out of me every time you do that.
It would be better if you didn't drink.
It would be better if you'd try not to unravel now. Thank you, Julia.
It'll be a miracle, frankly, and I hope he's well.
It'll be a miracle, frankly, and I hope he's well.
It'll cost us $35 million, but we don't care,
It's a demanding defence.
It's all right. There's nothing to be afraid of.
It's incredible.
It's just... Well, all right.
It's like those idiot costumes of his...
It's like when everybody was supposed to stop eating g****s.
It's nice, isn't it? It's a liver and whey shake.
It's sudden death! The crowd's delirious!
It's the perfect alibi. She insists on seeing him.
Jarrett has completed an astounding 62% of his passes
Jarrett was sacked hard. He's getting up. He's OK.
Joe, if you could not so much lower but broaden your standards.
Joe, you asked for a temporary arrangement.
Joe, you in here?
Joe, you never could play that thing.
Julia, please, dear.
Just be quiet a minute. just let me say one thing.
Just generally. Would you say we got a winning season?
Just leave the door open as you leave, Sisk. Thank you.
Just put me back and we'll forget the whole thing.
Just what I said. Your time is up.
L don't think they're taking into account the expense.
L thought it would be good if they saw how we did things.
Leach and Char will have to...
Leo Farnsworth has bought this team, and he wants to play quarterback.
Leo Farnsworth, a man of enormous power.
Leo Farnsworth.
Let me get this straight.
Let me spring it on Abbott, I can make him crack.
Let other teams build plants in the wrong places.
Let the other quarterback throw a gurgle
Let's do it tonight.
Lets all try and stay onsides.
Lets be the team that makes the rules, plays fair,
Lets go.
Lieutenant, I will not be spoken to in this way in my house.
Life has a certain quality all its own, a certain feeling.
Like the Super Bowl. Break.
Listen to me. Farnsworth isn't in bad shape.
Listen, I got to talk to somebody right away.
Listen, Mr...Jordan, is it?
Listen, Your Highness, I'm telling you what I told the mayor last week.
Listen. There is nothing to be frightened of.
Look at em.
Look at it this way...
Look at me and listen carefully to what I'm saying.
Look at the women.
Look out!
Look, he's posing with the whole football team.
Look, I'm no good at spur of the moment alibis.
Look, just do me one favour. Look at me.
Look, Mr. Farnsworth, no team wants a crazy trainer,
Looking awful good.
Looking, scrambling. He's in trouble. And he's hit hard! Down he goes!
Max! I'm not Farnsworth. I'm Joe Pendleton.
Maybe he's got us bugged right now.
Maybe I better walk you to the car.
Meaning a Ram victory Sunday or next week against the Falcons
Mind if I smoke?
Miss Logan claims he was getting a divorce
Miss Logan is downstairs, sir.
Miss Logan, I am sorry if I've said anything that's hurt you.
Miss Logan. I'm Tony Abbott.
Mr. Abbott, what did you discuss the last time you saw him?
Mr. Farnsworth conducts business at his office.
Mr. Farnsworth has been sent hundreds of letters
Mr. Farnsworth is taking the Rams to the Super Bowl as a quarterback.
Mr. Farnsworth is waiting for you in the ballroom. Follow me, please.
Mr. Farnsworth loathes cold cucumber soup.
Mr. Farnsworth says, Tell no one to hold back.
Mr. Farnsworth would like to see you now.
Mr. Farnsworth, is everything all right?
Mr. Farnsworth, play any college ball?
Mr. Farnsworth, that's an ecological suit
Mr. Farnsworth, you've been sent hundreds of letters from Pagglesham.
Mr. Jordan, I'm so glad to see you!
Mr. Jordan. He runs the way station.
Mr. Pendleton, do you know where you are?
Mr. Pendleton, you must wait for me. I'm your escort.
Mr. Pendleton.
Mrs. Farnsworth would kill you if she saw that.
Mrs. Farnsworth, how was your relationship with your husband?
My husband loved me very much, but he was a man.
My team. That son of a bitch got my team.
My watch stopped. It keeps flashing the same time.
Nice talking to you.
No kidding? Is this lighter right?
No sign of aberration in his behaviour?
No, an electronics expert sweeps the place daily.
No, check on Pagglesham, see if we're hurting anybody.
No, I guess we haven't. I'm sorry.
No, I'll just... I'm going to sit here for a minute.
No, I'm sorry, Mr. Farnsworth. That's not for sale.
No, no, I... Listen, my name's Tom Jarrett.
No, no, no...
No, sir. A bit more talkative, but other than that, normal.
No. I played a little polo.
No. I think that's about it.
Not bad.
Nothing in his personal life bothering him?
Now do you believe me, Max? Please say you believe me.
Now, you probably think I still have it.
Of course not. That's what you want.
Of course. You haven't changed.
Of moderate means, less well off than the ecological groups fighting us.
Oh, I thought...
Oh, my God.
Oh, yeah. Well, good.
OK, lets go! Lets go!
On balance, we've had an extremely good year.
On this one, you take the inside. 54...
On three! Set!
Once again, we had a foul up on that scrimmage.
Once the body's discovered, it'll be too late.
Only Farnsworth can help her.
Opposite left, play past 35. X curl on 1. Ready? Break.
Or a 49er loss, and the Rams clinch the NFL Western Division title.
Or credit cards, right? And no identification papers?
Or go back and take a right and then a left.
Or Leo Farnsworth or anything that's happened.
Or Leo Farnsworth or anything that's happened.
Or something that makes more of a statement?
Our San Diego fleet...
Pagglesham! It's what we're talking about!
Pagglesham.
Pass! Pass! Pass!
Pass! Pass! Pass! Ball! Ball! Ball!
Pendleton, Joseph. Due to arrive 10.17 A.M., March 20th, 2025.
People always think they knew somebody before.
Perhaps you'd like to tell me what it's about.
Pick up 24. Pick up 28.
Play something for me on this thing, huh?
Play that scrimmage like the Super Bowl.
Please. Mr. Everett, did he ever say anything to you about his hats?
Pretend you're reading.
Provided his death has not yet been discovered.
Quarterback?
Ready, set...
Ready? Break.
Really, we must be going.
Red right, red right. Watch the pass.
Right, left! Right, left!
Right. Another Arab.
Ruthless bastard.
Say it again.
Say there's a probability that some guy's going to die.
Say, thanks for dinner.
Set... Good movement. Lets try it again.
She insists on seeing you. Will you dress?
Since I'm the only guy knows how to fix that,
Since they're mammals of alleged high intelligence,
Sir, I don't understand. A check out? Why?
Sir, I really can't believe it.
Sir, you have always fancied the sea.
Sisk felt since he was pretending to talk to somebody,
Sisk, may we have some more coffee, please?
Sisk, please tell Mr. Farnsworth Miss Logan refuses to leave.
Sisk! How about that liver and whey shake? Hurry up.
So do dreams. You know that this is not life.
So he jumped the gun.
So it's you, Mr. Abbott!
So newspapers get hold of it and stockholders don't like it.
So no matter what happens, I won't forget you.
So the guy he takes up to the way station isn't just some ordinary guy.
Something happened tonight...
Something is wrong, isn't it?
Sometimes he talked about cookies.
Son of a bitch Farnsworth was into everything,
Soon you can get into another business and have a real life.
Sorry to bother you, but we don't love each other. Lets get divorced.
Sorry to disturb you, Mr. Farnsworth, but Miss Logan is downstairs
Sorry to disturb you. Mrs. Farnsworth saw a mouse, but she's better now.
Sorry, Mr. Farnsworth.
Sort of, yeah. Thanks, Sisk.
Sure we are. It's a big house.
Sure. He's the only guy in there.
Take Corkle to the Farnsworth house.
Take this investigation and shove it up your ass!
Tell Mr. Jordan not to worry about it. Thank him.
Thank you, Mr. Abbott. Nothing about hats?
Thank you, Mr. Everett. Did he mention disliking his hats?
Thank you, Sisk.
Thanks a lot. You want some tea?
Thanks, Corkle. You all right?
Thanks, Mr. Jordan.
Thanks, Mr. Jordan. I'll see you in about 50 years.
Thanks. Thank you.
Thanks. Thanks a lot.
That gets the best contract, that's popular.
That Mr. Farnsworth never carried any money
That Pagglesham refinery, we'll have to relocate it.
That plastic stuff we're making, we'll have to stop.
That statement speaks for itself.
That team will put him out of commission like that.
That thing you said you saw in me. Something in my eyes, remember?
That this man has perpetrated on hundreds of defenceless people.
That will take you to it.
That will take you to it.
That's all right. I'll wait.
That's how they look when they eat.
That's impossible. Have you explained the rules to him?
That's me. I haven't changed.
That's not a football team.
That's our weekend forecast. Now here's tonight's sports.
That's rubbish.
That's the ecology group Exo Grey is funding.
That's the last thing Exo Grey would ever want to do, right?
That's the way it is with champagne, huh?
That's what's coming to me.
That's when he stopped wearing hats. They looked funny without socks!
That's why I've flown over here. I and the 1,673 people I represent,
That's why the rumour of a merger makes the price of the stock rise.
That's why we keep hearing the same song.
The body you occupied on Earth has been cremated.
The cars coming the other way, the escorts supposed to wait,
The defence has given up but 10 points a game,
The end of the line, Mr. Pendleton, please.
The evidence for which I have here,
The few who remain will have their health endangered
The football team gag, the ecology crap, the divorce...
The fullback has been slow getting up for his block.
The game!
The guard almost ran into him. We got to do it till it's right.
The guy wasn't really dead.
The Haitian ambassadors here.
The homburg or the bowler,
The likelihood of one individual being right
The more servants who see us, the better.
The Oakland Raiders are close. Give them a call.
The only thing he hasn't announced is our divorce and when he does,
The only trick I know.
The only way you can return to life is in the body of another man.
The others can't complete their journey. Is that fair?
The people who live there, 1 ,600, including my father,
The Pittsburgh defence has been brilliant.
The point is we don't need a quarterback.
The point is we're doing something wrong.
The point is, Mr. Farnsworth,
The Rams are champions!
The Rams will probably face Dallas in the opening round. If they win...
The rules derive from yours,
The score, 24 24. Overtime.
The Super Bowl is set for the Coliseum.
The team feels this is the Rams year to go to the Super Bowl.
The toxic substance released by the plastic bottles you market,
The way he was hit, Tom Jarrett is hurt.
The way they're playing,
Their magic number is one,
Their record is the best...
Then there's nothing to be afraid of, is there?
There are no buts. You can call your guards and have me dragged out.
There are old men and skinny younger men.
There's a lot of confusion.
There's a potential there! He's...
There's a reason for everything. There's always a plan.
There's a reason for everything. There's got to be.
There's been an outcry.
There's nothing to be afraid of.
There's plenty to be worried about, but nothing to be frightened of.
These people are newspaper reporters.
These people care that their community
These people will not let you intimidate and frighten them.
These were his words, I quote,
They can take away the good looks,
They didn't? No kidding? They're murderers.
They don't have a team in heaven, so God couldn't make me first string.
They don't want Jarrett. They want you.
They drugged him, then I stepped in.
They order Jerry Hodges to start warming up on the sidelines.
They're calling for the stretcher. Jarrett has not moved.
They're calling for the stretcher. Jarrett has not moved.
They're pinning it on Betty.
They're supposed to put him back in his body, but he's been cremated.
They've stopped the Rams...
This cocoa is good, isn't it?
This is a body they found for me.
This is a place that comes after life and after dreams.
This is a very dangerous precedent.
This is an aeroplane dream.
This is an outrage.
This is insupportable. You're talking to Mr. Jordan.
This is not heaven, it's a way station. There's no mistake.
This is the craziest nut I've ever dealt with.
This is the library. That's Mrs. Farnsworth.
This is the only business I know that's real. I'm stuck.
This is what I'm here about.
This is your destiny, Joe. You're back on your own road now.
This isn't going to work.
This isn't what I thought was going to happen to me.
This man must be put back into his body at once.
This morning it opened at 14.
Three weeks ago, the stock was selling at 56.
To bait us, waiting for us to crack.
To find me a body that can play quarterback.
To make way for the proposed Exo Grey refinery.
To something as ridiculous as turning down a body
Tom Jarrett, the Rams quarterback, back to pass.
Try a little music. That's a great persuader.
Try it with the ball! Come on, positions!
Uncremate me! You must be able to do something right.
Very funny. I'm sure you enjoy playing these insulting little games.
Very funny. If you think I'm going back to Pagglesham, you're wrong.
Very nice. Very...very nice.
Very, very close. Very, very special.
Wait for me, please, Mr. Pendleton.
Want me to quit? Give me the ball once.
Want to make a wish?
We already got a quarterback working with the team.
We can put you into another mans body,
We can see the Ram players are concerned,
We could raise it at the meeting, but I'm sure its legal.
We don't care how much it costs, just how much it makes.
We got a couple of pretty good backups.
We got a great life ahead, you and me,
We have a full agenda today already. We don't have time for a press...
We have responsibility to thousands of shareholders
We haven't got a lot of time. If...
We will never let you build that refinery.
We won this game. We got to stay in shape for the rest of the game.
We're considering it. We have to be going. Excuse us.
We're fooling with the Rams.
We're getting a clearer picture of Mr. Farnsworth's patterns.
We're going all the way to the Super Bowl!
We're going to the Super Bowl to win.
We're going to the Super Bowl to win.
We're not here for just one game.
We've gone to enormous difficulty to find an athlete.
We've gone to such extremes to find.
We've got a winning season.
We've received a new arrival who refuses to board.
We've seen many bodies and the choices are becoming limited.
Well, he'd say something like,
Well, I asked for 67 million, and he said OK.
Well, I don't want to talk German.
Well, I guess not.
Well, like I said, I thought I knew you, too.
Well, very, very nice. Very, very, impressive.
What about the first time I fixed your neck in Pittsburgh?
What are you talking about?
What are you talking about?
What did you do at your uncles wedding?
What did you talk about?
What do I do with his cocoa?
What do you do when you're ahead?
What do you mean, stuck?
What do you think of the Rams chances?
What do you want it for?
What harm can that do him?
What if we had a good guy tuna company on the porpoise team?
What is it?
What kind of pressure did he use, Milt?
What the hell is this? What does it matter?
What would it cost to try out?
What would you say if I told you I was a professional football player?
What's going on?
What's the matter with him? He can't keep his eyes open.
What's this?
Whatever you do, it won't be with Mr. Farnsworth's body.
Whatever you say. Why have I got so many of these sailor outfits?
When I left, he said he'd call me, but something happened.
When is he due at this way station?
When you said There's nothing to be afraid of,
When you see that, it doesn't matter who a person is or anything.
Whether he's qualified for the job or not.
Which may mean nothing to you,
While the offence scores 2 1 points a game.
Whip up a liver and whey shake. Where you going?
Who do you think you are? You call this an investigation!
Whose names are on this petition,
Why are you looking at me like that?
Why did it have to be Jarrett?
Why don't you try another team?
Why not take him out a few seconds early
Why?
Will not allow their futures to be determined by bureaucrats
Will there be anything else, Mr. Farnsworth?
Will you take it easy? I'll be out in a minute.
With less than 24 hours before the big game,
Would you mind if I took you home?
Would you pay more to save a fish who thinks?
Wrong as it seems, they leak it.
Yeah, well... Yeah... Yeah.
Yeah? I don't know. l think I can do it.
Yeah. How d'you know that?
Yeah. How'd you know that?
Yeah. We don't want to hurt anybody. Thank you.
Yeah. Why?
Yeah...what?
Yes, indeed. Would you excuse me, Mrs. Farnsworth?
Yes, Joe. I understand.
Yes, of course, Mr. Abbott.
Yes, sir.
Yes, sir. Mr. Pendleton!
Yes, sir. No more hats.
Yes, they do.
Yes! just a minute. Yes! Yes, Sisk.
Yes. He was going to get a divorce.
Yes. I did notice he seemed to take a dislike to his hats,
Yes. We could arrange that if you wish it.
You all right, Max? You all right?
You are dumb, aren't you?
You be the trainer. I'll start on Sunday.
You call Hodges good, huh?
You can make him believe you.
You can't see him. You're still alive.
You did what?!
You don't gamble unnecessarily. You protect your lead.
You don't need to worry about her.
You don't pass from your own end. You make sure nobody gets hurt.
You don't understand. This is not your ultimate destination.
You don't understand...
You don't want a ride?
You going to the party, Corkle? I'll give you a ride.
You got till that meeting on Thursday
You got to help me talk Joe out of this.
You got to use these guys in the next game.
You guys made a mistake.
You guys made a mistake.
You idiot! You idiot! Why did you answer him?
You just keep swallowing it cause it doesn't taste like anything,
You keep your money, I'll keep my job,
You know how it works in heaven?
You know what kind of shape you gotta be in to get to the Super Bowl?
You know what? You look a little pale. You want something to eat?
You know, most people are afraid of something, aren't they?
You leave me speechless. I have nothing to say to that.
You mean I sound like this guy, no matter what I talk like?
You must abide by what is written.
You must have checked out a lot of bodies...
You mustn't get out of line. Really!
You OK, Tom? You OK?
You said I'd get to the Super Bowl.
You saw no specific changes in Mr. Farnsworth's behaviour?
You see how he's slowly sliding into the water?
You still there?
You think a schoolteacher is no challenge for a famous industrialist,
You thought I meant to go out. Sisk, we're going out. Come on.
You two probably got a lot to talk about. I'll be on my way.
You want to have a cup of coffee or something?
You want to know about his hats? He wouldn't wear socks with a suit!
You want to know the only thing I'm afraid of?
You want to see a trick?
You want to tell me why you're calling me Joe?
You'd give him a chance? He might be a good guy.
You'd never forget me either, would you?
You'd notice that same thing, right?
You'll be Thomas Jarrett with no memory of Joe Pendleton,
You'll be Thomas Jarrett with no memory of Joe Pendleton,
You're asking me to believe Leo Farnsworth asked you to marry him?
You're going to throw off your entire cervical and your lumbar areas.
You're not supposed to do that, you must wait for the outcome.
You're playing football with a bunch of butlers.
You're sorry you have me, aren't you? You wish he were alive.
You're still Joe Pendleton. That's what you and I see.
You're telling me
You're wrong, cause I can see it coming out of your ear.
You've a lot to learn about the strength of people like myself.
Your company treats communities of the world,
Your destiny is not in my hands. Please don't make it more difficult.
Your helmet, sir. Your polo helmet, sir.
Your voice sounded so familiar.
1 83!
2 81!
2 81!
2 85!
2 85...2 85!
4 3, set!
4 3... Set! 2 85!
20 29! Go!
2.5 million acres? The sugar deal.
A friend of mine was. Was?
Answer him. People can hear me now?
Anybody can make a mistake. Mr. Jordan, we're due to take off.
Back in there? Oh, yes.
Because I... It's...
Better get a stretcher. Jesus!
but believe me... Will you please listen?
But that's dishonest. Yes, it is.
Chamberlain, Paul R. All right.
Corkle, where are you going? To the Coliseum.
Dearest, please! I've got to have a drink.
Do I make myself clear? But...
Do I sail? Not really, sir.
Do you eat here often? Are you...? Now, look...
Don't do that, Joe. Wait a minute.
Don't you understand? Sure. That's a hell of a story.
For Gods sake, he knows that. We can porpoises?
Give me a drink! Please don't go overboard, dear.
Go ahead. Very good.
Good night. Good night.
Got to go. Wait a minute. I...
Guess I'll just keep looking. Yes, sir.
Have we met? No. I don't think so.
Have you seen Mr. Farnsworth? No, sir, I haven't.
He could even be a quarterback. I don't understand.
He's afraid of being bugged, too. He's playing with us.
He's joking. Funny.
He's looking awful good. Here we go!
He's looking awful good. Looking good.
He's not talking English. I told you he was German.
Hello. I'm Betty Logan. Yeah. It's nice to meet you.
Here's your murderer! She did it!
Hey, Doc. Did Tom leave? He's putting some ice on his eye.
Hi, Joe. How's the knee? Good.
Hi, Max. I am right, it is you, isn't it?
Hi. You cannot board before your turn.
Hi. How you doing? Fine, thank you. Very well....
How can I give up Farnsworth now? I'm sorry, Joe.
How do you feel? Good.
How do you know? Because he didn't call me.
How do you light this? There.
How you doing, Bentley? Fine, sir.
How you doing? What's in this brown stuff?
How? I bought the Rams.
How's that? Oh, boy. Yeah.
I beg your pardon, Mr. Farnsworth? You see?
I believe he's here somewhere. He's in the locker room.
I don't know what you want. You don't make mistakes.
I don't know what you're saying. Come on. Yes, you do.
I don't want to hear any more. Max, please.
I doubt he'd see you here. Hell have to, I'm not leaving.
I guess so, if we got 'em. How did you get those permits?
I hope you don't doubt my word. I don't, I'm sure you're lying.
I know about that. Have you read the letters?
I need it for Mr. Corkle. Yes, sir. Right away.
I prefer to stand. We can stand.
I should be canonised! Perhaps one drink.
I want Corkle to help. Who are you talking to?
I was just thinking, Betty. What?
I'm a little late. I'm sorry.
I'm conducting an investigation. I'm going.
I'm glad we did it. We couldn't help it.
I'm not leaving. Sorry.
I'm sorry? I'm not leaving.
I'm sorry. Was he a close friend? Yes, he was very close.
I'm starting against Dallas? Yeah.
If we're hurting anybody? Yeah.
In what sense? Bad for somebody else.
Is Farnsworth dead yet? Not yet.
Is he still on cortisone? No.
Is it that many? They granted permits, didn't they?
Is that a threat? Yes.
It would be bad publicity. Why don't just sit down?
It's crazy? No, it doesn't sound crazy.
It's just me. Mr. Farnsworth?
It's no good. The deal?
It's really none of my business. Your wife's not your business?
It's the second door on the right. I see. Thank you. Thank you.
Jarrett comes back into the game. Joe!
Jarrett. My competition's 25 other teams.
Julia, I beg of you... I want a drink.
Julia, please. Why don't you say it's not true?
Julia, please. Why don't you say it's not true?
Just look at me. What?
just not my day. No, sir.
Let him watch the game. Everything will be all right.
Let's find another body. A servant will find him.
Lets get out of here. Miss Logan, sir.
Listen, I need a match. That clock, that's a lighter.
Look at me. Mr. Farnsworth...
Look at the pupils! Bill! Get that ambulance!
Look out. 4 3, set!
Look, Mr. Pendleton... I'm not talking to you.
Lost a little weight, huh? Have we met?
Max, I'm back. He can't hear you, Mr. Pendleton.
Max? Yeah!
Maybe I don't know him. Exactly.
Miss Logan, sir. Hi. How you doing?
Mr. Corkle, please. Mr. Everett? Yes?
Mr. Corkle, sir. Max. How you doing?
Mr. Pendleton! Gentlemen?
Mr. Pendleton! Yeah. You can call me Joe.
Mr. Pendleton. Hey!
My coordination is shot? Yes, sir.
Never, sir. Thank you, Mr. Everett.
Nice. Let's try it again, Mr. Farnsworth.
No, its all right. I'll fix your neck.
No, off the record. Off the record?
No, the sugar. It's bad for the body. Shall I speak to the ambassador?
No. Thank you, Mr. Abbott.
Not exactly. It's probability and outcome.
Now what do we do? Are you there, sir?
Now, Corkle! Your men standing around watching!
Of course. But he knows the other guys voice.
Oh, dear. Cremated. I see.
Oh, yes. Thank you, Sisk. Tell him to wait.
Play past 29... 2 81!
Playing football is so much fun. Try this time.
Please, dear, not now. Not now. I want a sip.
Poor son of a bitch. Yeah...
Put it here. I hope you have a lot more.
Ready? Break. Tighten it up.
Really quite extraordinary. You don't have to say...
Set! Come on now!
She just saw a mouse? No, outside. But she relives it.
Shit, man, what you doing? What's he doing?
Shit! Crazy son of a bitch.
Show her in. Yes, sir.
Sir? Thank you.
So hold up on that body. Hold up?
Somebody ought to help her. You can. You can be Farnsworth.
Something... What?
Sure, sure. Very good, sir.
Sure. What about your competition? Competition?
Take him at his word. Lets kill him.
Take it easy. I know.
Tell her I'll be right down. Very good, sir.
Thanks. Do I play polo? Not really, sir.
Thanks. Do I play polo? Not really, sir.
That's enough. He deserves to be dead.
That's mainly whipped liver. Liver?
That's not bad. We handle all lawsuits that way.
That's too bad. I'm sorry. Have you put some ice on that?
The decision is yours. You give me no choice. Sisk!
There, sir. Thank you.
These... These are nice. Max, you know how people die?
This guy? You're kidding! That's not Farnsworth.
This is not a dream. Yeah.
This isn't gonna work! I fixed all that.
This Logan girl is a godsend. What's taking so long?
Train? Yeah. As soon as I'm ready...
Very good, sir. It works.
Wait a second, Max. Tell him who you are, Joe.
Wait. Are you saying...? Is this your first assignment?
Wait. I got to talk to you. Wait. Goodbye.
Want to come, Sisk? Certainly, madam.
Was that the living room? That was my office.
We really must go. I've been studying this thing.
We'll have each other. Not after he brings charges...
Well, it's only temporary, right? That's correct.
Well, no. No. I suspected as much.
Well... I'll be right back.
What about Acrilonitrile? What about what?
What about Jarrett? Pendleton's looking better.
What about the scar on your tongue? How did you...?
What are you referring to? Like this refinery in Pagglesham.
What are you talking about? Is that yours?
What are you trying out for? Quarterback.
What did you say? What?
What did you tell him? You saw a mouse.
What did you think of the game? I didn't see it.
What do you mean, I won't remember? Goodbye, Joe.
What do you mean? How does it feel to be Tom Jarrett?
What do you want? I'm sorry, Mr. Pendleton.
What in God's name was that? Well, that was...
What is it? Sit down.
What? His hats.
What? My name is Joe.
What? Pendleton. He's looking awful good.
What? Pendleton. He's looking awful good.
What? You know what I mean.
What's going to happen? Nothing's going to happen.
What's that? They're just closing up the place.
What's the matter with her? Well, listen...
What's up? Some interesting probabilities.
Where can the man be? I'm sorry, Miss Logan...
Which hat would you prefer? Look, I don't want a hat.
Who are they? Farnsworth's wife and secretary.
Who is it? It's Sisk, sir.
Why is he bringing the press here? You know Leo Farnsworth.
Why not? It wasn't meant to be.
Why not? Stop saying that!
World champions! I... I feel good.
Would you take a seat? No, thank you.
Yes, Mr. Farnsworth. Thank you. Good night.
Yes, sir. And what was his rebuttal?
Yes, sir. Haven't you learned the rules?
Yes, sir. How you doing down there?
Yes, sir. Quite clearly?
Yes. All right. There.
You can't have outsiders... Sure we can. Come in, everybody.
You didn't say it's not true. It's not true.
You had cocoa with him every night. Yes.
You hate me. Don't be ridiculous. I love you.
You have to wait in line. What? This is my dream, isn't it?
You know, if I... What is it? What is it?
You left a pot on the carpet. I can't hold everything at once.
You locked me in a closet. For a moment.
You locked me in a closet. Why? Hello.
You must abide by what is written. She loves me, Mr. Jordan.
You must abide by what is written. Why?
You must play for the Rams. Yeah. You interested in football?
You said I'd get to the Super Bowl. Yes, if its meant to be.
you should listen to me. Maybe you should trade places.
You think I can do it? You can do anything you want to.
You used to like it. If we don't act now, we'll lose it.
You want a rest, Mr. Farnsworth? No, it's OK.
You're not afraid of things. Afraid of things? Why would I be?
Your tea, Mr. Farnsworth. Oh, right... Yeah. My tea.
...my...Mrs. Farnsworth.
..and only four measly field goals...
..give the Rams advantage through the playoffs.
..someone who can throw. The Super Bowls coming up.
