Dennis Conner, you won the America's Cup.
The top-sailing award in the world.
What do you do next?
I'm headed for Disneyland.
Russian immigrants speak out tonight after America.
Hi, we're the Siever family.
And growing pains will not be seen tonight.
But we will be back next week.
So stay tuned for America.
Wow, it took a whole country to preempt dust.
America, 1997.
After ten years of Soviet occupation.
Ten years without freedom in a land called America.
I gotta live with you, eat with you.
I gotta talk to you.
I can nod on your son.
You lost the land.
I gotta see my kids.
As far as you're concerned, they might as well be dead.
If I could understand this man, I could understand America.
You control everything.
What difference does it make?
All you have to do to be safe is jump in bed.
How the hell would you know?
Why do you wish to help us?
I don't want to help you.
I want to help my country.
There is no country.
Tonight, the story continues.
You can't believe that the lives of your children mean nothing.
It's not in your blood.
You can't just do nothing.
Beyond the Underground Railroad, people started running.
The railroad got resurrected.
I wish to conduct a disciplinary reprisal against the count.
What lure would be enough for you to betray your country?
You think that's what this is?
America has lost.
Soon there will be no America.
Maybe freedom is just one of those things you can't inherit.
I pledge allegiance to the flag of the United States of America.
America!
America, next.
Tonight, America.

Is there a problem, Major?
Says it has nothing to do with you.
Gone?
Son of a bitch!
Buck then! Buck then!
Captain!
Hello?
Dad?
Well...
Yes?
Well, I...
I was wondering if...
if Elise had come and...
if she...
if she was raped, you know...
Did they tell you that?
No.
Right after they took the houses...
Firs and Ward's...
she got mixed up in some...
fool group thing...
trying...
who knows...
blow up something.
She always was a...
pretty spunky kid.
Maybe more than any of you other kids.
But...
it doesn't explain to me why she's still going out there.
Does that make any sense to you?
Funny...
some parents are...
sometimes partial to one kid or another.
I always thought...
Dad's the worst.
I respect...
what you did there.
I wanted you to know that.
Yeah, yeah.
As far as I'm concerned, there's no sense you being down by the creek there like some one of them damn squatters.
You're a real bastard.
I'm not.
Was I such a bad lover?
Don't move.
Don't worry.
I'm just gonna sit up.
So you finally have enough.
You're finally going to have your revenge.
I'm not.
You're going to have your revenge.
Have you ever killed a man?
Particularly a naked man.
There's something about killing a man with his clothes on which neutralizes the process.
It doesn't protect him from death.
But somehow the naked body...
unprotected...
ceasing to function...
turning in hard color...
it's so much more real...
ugly.
Here I am...
this monster who has dominated you...
subjugated you.
Go ahead.
You see yourself as the savior of your people.
The one who will finally kill the devil.
For you...
and for them.
My death will change the world.
You understand nothing.
But me, I'm at your own weakness.
You need me.
You hate me, but you need me.
I'm no murderer.
Your weakness is pathetic.
I was wondering how long it would take until you pelted a temptation of the gun.
You're not coming back to bed?
Waiting up for the bad girl to finally get home, huh?
Ellie, I'm sorry.
I don't want your damn sorry.
I know.
I don't want your pity, your understanding, or your forgiveness.
It was my fault.
Oh good, good. That'll do it then. That'll let me sleep a lot better.
Fine, a little sadism from the bad guys. Why not some from the good guys?
Don't take this all along.
What are you going to do about it now?
What are you going to do about it now, huh?
What are you going to do about it now?
Let go of me, gun!
No, let go!
No, let go of me!
No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no!
They took me out and raped me.
They raped me.
It wasn't supposed to happen to me.
You don't have to tell me.
Yes, I do. I do. I have to. There is a life lesson in all this.
I just, uh, I just wish to God I could find it.
I complain, as you might guess. I, I complain.
My protest was filed with the commander of the UNSSU.
And a few days later, a car arrived from the barracks and took me to the commander. Helmet.
Helmet.
He had the, had the men beaten in front of me.
I watched. At least he said it was the men who had done it.
It made me sick, but I was glad.
It felt so, so good to get eaten.
He, uh, he invited me to dinner in his quarters.
He was, he was so charming. He was so powerful.
He apologized. He said, he said that I was still beautiful.
That the men hadn't damaged me, but I was. I was.
And here he was telling me that I was still beautiful, but I was still special.
He made love to me.
I let him.
He raped and raped.
How could I hate him so much? Who he is, what he's doing here. Everything is tough. He's so afraid that he won't want me.
Pretty degraded, don't you think?
You have all these ideas about how strong you'll be, how you'll live up to these great expectations of yourself.
And then you end up just doing, just surviving.
No heroics. No, no strength of character.
Not even dignity.
Just, just afraid your rapist won't take you to bed.
Don't you sometimes wonder if our ancestors ever wanted to give up?
They thought they were living and dying for something.
I bet they didn't ask the question very often.
They just lived and believed.
Everywhere they just fought like hell to stay alive.
Do you remember in great grandpa's journal, when he talked about being out of wood and family all huddled together?
Sixty mile an hour winds were tearing at the dugout and...
And I still had time to write and laugh and sing.
There was this entry where he was talking about great grandma, Irma.
Talking about her standing there, holding her dead baby in her arms, singing rock of ages.
I don't know. Maybe we're just too soft. Maybe we just don't know what's worth feeling that way about.
All my life I believed that I was fighting for something.
I always thought that I believed in something.
So I kept turning it over in my mind, hoping it was still inside my head somewhere where they couldn't get at it.
I looked at it so many ways.
Finally it meant nothing. It meant nothing.
Living, dying, courage, cowardice. They lose their meaning if there's no choice.
You always believed that you could make that choice, right?
You always believed, had faith in giving people the chance to make that choice. They can't have taken that away from you.
When I ran for president it wasn't just me I lost faith in. I lost faith in everybody.
Nobody wanted to risk anything for anybody else. Everybody afraid they were going to lose what they had.
They knew it was bad. They were just afraid it would get worse.
That's all they lived for. But the thing is not to get worse.
I don't care about everybody else. You can't just do nothing.
You can't believe that the lives of your children mean nothing.
It's not in your blood. It's not in your character.
I'm getting cold.
I'm getting cold. I'm getting cold.
I'm not working out. I'm always romantic.
I'm getting cold.
Thank you very much. You made me a flower, lady.
Thank you.
Agent Mentor, sir, can I help you with that?
Sure.
You guys UNSF, too?
Sure, we're Americans.

Can't somebody do something about dishwasher odor?
It's Arm and Hammer baking soda to the rescue. Just sprinkle about a quarter cup in your dishwasher to help keep it smelling fresh between loads.
Absorbs odors for days, the same way an open box absorbs odors in your fridge and freezer.
Hey, it worked. Now can we have some real food?
Arm and Hammer baking soda freshens the fridge, freezer, and now the dishwasher, too.
Why would one company work 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, 365 days a year, and spend billions of dollars building America's first and only 100% fiber optic long distance network?
Why? So that every fiber optic long distance call you make will be so clear and quiet that you can actually hear a pin dropped.
U.S. Sprint. Builders of the first and only 100% fiber optic network. Clear across America.
You know you love it. So do it.
Turn on the juice, let it flow. Turn on the juice, let it go. Orange juice when you're rockin' or when you're workin' not. Turn it on when you're cookin', drinkin' down when you're high.
Turn on to 100% pure orange juice with Flora the Seal of Approval. It's juice packed to standards even higher than the federal government.
Turn it on, turn on the juice, turn on the juice. For all it's worth.
There was no doubt about it, Max Holden was a charmer. Folks said he could charm the skin of a snake, but even Max wasn't a meanie to the vice Tina Roberts.
America will continue in a moment.
An ABC News business brief now from Washington, Stephen Augs.
Good evening. Yet another surge by the stock market. The Dow Jones Industrial Average jumped a record 54 points to another new high.
Ford out earned General Motors in 1986, first time that's happened in 62 years. Norfolk Southern made a $1.5 billion buyout bid for Piedmont Airlines.
Directors may recommend approval. The government wants to sell nearly 58 million shares of stock in Conrail for about $1.5 billion. SEC approval is needed.
Factory use reached its highest level in almost a year during January.
On New York financial markets interest on T-bills rose a bit. Gold fell $6. The dollar was lower. That's Business Brief. I'm Stephen Augs.
Four by fours came in lots of shapes and sizes this year. But only one was named best four by four of the year. Nissan AdFinding, honored by both Four Wheel and Off-Road and Four Wheeler magazine.
Best of the year in on and off-road performance. Best of the year for interior comfort and function. Award winning ride, toughness and style found in Pathfinder and every four by four we make.
The four by four of the year is Pathfinder. The name is Nissan.
Going up the stage. Pirates are lawing up for me. Cause I don't care much for sushi and I starve on fresh cuisine. I'm thinking of a top sirloin dinner at Black Angus with homemade soup or fresh salad and a baked potato all under seven bucks.
Don't count parsley as a side dish. Give me all night ala carte. Got a date with a full steak dinner and Black Angus is where I'll start.
Is the mini-series America realistic? Reporter Harold Green asked Soviet immigrants living in L.A. to tell their side. Tonight at 11 only on 7.
A possible decision on the Beverly Hills smoking ban. Gary Franklin reviews the film rated F and Lonnie Lardin talks with Chris Christopherson at 11 tonight.
The committee is met with respect to the horrendous invasion of the town by the exiles during the Lincoln Day celebration and there is some concern as to what action you intend to take.
There seems little to be done. Well they broke the curfew, violated the terms of their exile. They are back on the count.
Well the committee wants to know what action you intend to take. Without the cooperation of the local officials we are helpless to act unless there are clear threats to the community.
It's clearly the committee feels that it's very real danger to the community. Who knows when they might decide to violate the curfew again.
We are afraid that bad examples have been set. Not only to the exiles but for certain elements of the town.
If you allow all controls to slip what...well who knows what might happen. I might agree with you but I'm helpless to act.
Somebody better tell your superiors there's a problem here. And in our next report to the area advisory committee we're going to have to discuss accountability.
Accountability. Accountability.
Peter.
Marianne. What a nice surprise.
It's not a mini Albert.
I assume you're my welcoming committee.
Well actually not. I'm coming with you.
I thought I'd arrive.
Well that's full of surprises isn't it?
Tell me one thing. Why the VIP treatment for someone who's only been nominated for an office that doesn't yet exist. And where are the other nominees?
Obviously not coming which should lead you to some inescapable conclusion.
Doesn't mean I understand it.
Hold it.
Yeah that's...he's not worth it.
Let's go.
Hey. Hey. Come on over here.
Nice going. You almost let them right through us.
Yeah lucky it was a border guard. They got an attention span of about five minutes. Otherwise.
Yeah.
Ladies and gentlemen in Russia where as most of you know I come from we have a saying.
Actually we have a saying for practically everything. It is of course untranslatable but it is something like this.
Make of an adversary a friend and together you will plant a field. Make of him a slave and you cannot bury him enough time. Unfortunately we do not always follow our old sayings.
However here we would like to speed the steps for us to return to our own country leaving behind us friends.
Tonight we have a man who will help us to do that more quickly.
I would like to propose a toast to the first governor general. Governor general of the central administrative area. Mr. Peter Bradford.
Cheers.
What happened to the election. The other candidates. They lost just like that. Just like that.
The results of the referendum will be announced on the national network following your speech to the joint session of Congress.
What if I don't want to be appointed. Someone else will be. The results are the same to us. The difference is between you and your people.
1932 Hennessey. I'm afraid it will be a little lost on me. I'm a man of simple taste. I'm afraid to say I'm a man of complex taste. I'd never really be any good at being one of the proletaries I serve.
You think of yourself as ordinary and yet you command respect. People trust you. Maybe that's because I'm not that far ahead of them.
You realize this brandy was put down just as Hitler was rising to power in Germany.
Anything older than me I kind of lose interest. Very American. You're not intrigued by the gyrations of history. A capitalist and a communist drinking a brandy from the time of fascism's greatest power.
Think of it. At this very time, yet other great fascists, Stalin, was under the guise of socialism, murdering millions and imprisoning millions more.
I'm partial to this year. It is the year my grandfather died in the Kulak.
I'm sorry. I don't know what to say.
My grandfather is now a hero of the Soviet Union, posthumously bestowed.
Stalin dead and credited, my grandfather dead and recredited, and his grandson one of the few responsible for the elevation of Mother Russia to the only true power in the world.
We learn how to survive. You will too.
Never completely trust a man who will not get drunk with you.
Never completely trust a man who will not get drunk with you. The irony is, of course, that my grandfather, posthumously rewarded, died suffering and disgraced, filled with hate and helplessness alone.
Just he in the heart, frozen ground of Siberia.
I've got a crown up in the kingdom, ain't that good news? I'm gonna lay down this world on the shoulder of my cross, gonna take it home to my Jesus, ain't that good news?
I've got a crown up in the kingdom, ain't that good news? I've got a crown up in the kingdom, ain't that good news?
I'm gonna lay down this world on the shoulder of my cross, gonna take it home to my Jesus, ain't that good news?
I've got a crown up in the kingdom, ain't that good news? I'm gonna lay down this world on the shoulder of my cross, gonna take it home to my Jesus, ain't that good news?
Pitch top.
I'm gonna lay down this world on the shoulder of my cross, gonna take it home to my Jesus, ain't that good news?
For all your flaws, you had such spirits.
Maybe you weren't so different after all.
May surprise you, but in many ways, Russians can be fiercely independent.
But our system, 75 years of socialism, has produced the people who wish to be led, who wish the government to tell them what is right and what is wrong.
They rely on the government to keep in check their base of instincts there, their selfishness there, their greed, so they no longer have to make those judgements themselves.
Though they still have those basic things, but they come out in destructive ways.
Like the behavior of the repressed children.
Isn't it funny? For you it is the bad behavior of spoiled children, for us the bad behavior of the repressed children.
The thing about spoiled children is they never know they're spoiled.
Until it is too late.
For us, just the simple fact that if we could neutralize America and take our proper place in the world, the communist man would emerge.
So, now we control most of the world and we don't have enough competent people to run it.
We're failing because our system has produced the people who don't understand the idea of choice.
They can't make an independent decision.
Always, everything must be checked at the next level and then the next until finally it's safely within the government.
You know, the only virtue we still have the people is a kind of madness, a frenzy for living life.
We love passionately, we love those who are close to irrationally, we love our country.
Not the USSR, but Russia, our homeland.
And, of course, this has been very effective in keeping people in line, whether under the Tsar or the Politburo.
How did you win?
In some ways it's more than you had.
You had political freedom, but you lost your passion.
You become embarrassed of passion, of feeling strongly about anything.
You never took an interest in the rest of the world and understanding the rest of the world.
You always saw things through your own vision.
You wanted things to be right, by which you meant moral and democratic and your own way.
So, when you found yourself the most powerful country in the world, the only clear policy you could agree on was being anti-communist.
And with such a simplistic viewpoint, you began to miss the point of a lot of what was going on in the world.
People who looked to America as an example for their own aspirations found themselves opposed by you because we supported them.
One of the ways we were able to usurp the United Nations was because when the nations of the world, rightly or wrongly, began to perceive you as the problem, you gave up.
You took your ball and you went home.
When there was a conflict in the world, you either reacted as a strong man bending backwards for fear of offending someone or suddenly thrashing about wildly in some futile and foolish attempt to prove you were not weak.
So ultimately, you found yourselves alone.
Feared, envied, hated. How could we not win?
What lure would be enough for you to betray your country?
You ask. I will tell you honestly. This once.
My first posting was to England. Well, England was England.
England. But then I was posted to America, to San Francisco, and I thought, what a wonderful country, what a wonderful test of myself.
If I could find myself in the currentless water, maybe I could discover my soul. Not my Russian soul, but my soul as an individual.
Maybe your things have been different.
Maybe you took the lure after all.
You think that's what this is?
No. America has lost, and I have lost.

If you were stranded in the wilderness, what's the one medicine you'd want along? A thousand doctors were asked which medicine they would choose. Tylenol, extra strength Tylenol, Advil, or Bayer. Doctors chose Bayer more than any other. Nearly 2 to 1 over extra strength Tylenol, more than 8 to 1 over Advil.
Doctors chose Bayer. Shouldn't you ask your doctor why? Bayer, the wonder drug that works wonders.
If you knew of a food that could give your baby the extra nutrition he needs, help his growing body develop and even taste good, wouldn't you buy it for him? What if this were your baby?
Give him Puppy Child brand puppy food from Purina. Puppy Child gives little pups the extra nutrition they need during these important first two years and there's nothing better. So don't treat your puppy like a dog. Feed him Puppy Child. Doesn't your baby deserve it?
What do you get for the man who has everything? Get him a Volkswagen Panigin to carry it in.
So you think you've got problems, frustrations, and tears? Try moving to the suburbs after sleeping a thousand years.
You're as beautiful as the first time I saw you.
Ah, the first time you saw me I was dead. Now everything's perfect, everything's swell, but there's an evil stepmother with another evil spell.
Who is the fairest of them all? Honey, don't ask. We're not telling fairy tales, just wait and see. The charmings are coming to ABC.
Honey, it's been a thousand years. A man has needs.
What's your identification number?
How long?
How long? How long?
You got family in Chicago? My children. I'm gone.
You know what? You're going to see them, join them, kidnap them?
Wait, what do you mean?
I'll start with seeing them. Look, I appreciate the help. Maybe you would just point me in the right direction.
You haven't finished your soup. Some of us get real put off when people don't finish our soup.
Please.
Look, you're on the Underground Railroad, one of the oldest railroads in America. Same place that slaves used when they were keeping the South.
It goes everywhere, all directions. People started running and the railroad got resurrected. The Lord works in mysterious ways.
What he's trying to say is that we can get you to Chicago a whole lot faster and safer than you can get there on your own, if at all.
I'd appreciate that.
Devin Milford, I've just been sitting here trying to figure why you look so familiar.
I'm sorry, it's a mistake people make sometimes.
That's too bad, because I sure like to shake that man's hand someday.
What if I were to tell you that I know somebody in Chicago who could find Devin Milford's kids for him? Now would that interest you at all?
I'm Melanie Blackstone, and this is my husband, the Reverend James Blackstone.
I'm Clayton Colton.
You're into something. You must be doing something. Whatever it is, count us in. Bet you got a lot of people ready, you know?
No. I just need to see my children.
Well then, we'll just have to see what we can do about that, and let the good Lord take care of the rest.
You haven't told him that I'm to be his deputy.
Not yet. Fine, breathe.
Soon our ability to help you will be limited. You'll have to survive on your own.
I wonder if we shouldn't show a little bit more concern for Mr. Frankfurt.
Well, it's nice to have your respect, Andre.
I wouldn't bet against her, Andre. She is a woman who loves the combat.
Too dangerous for me.
Well, aren't we fortunate we all want the same thing?
You?
Power.
The power to make a better world.
Yes, a better world. Power is like sex. We surround our last bit of vocabulary of love, but fear it. Maybe it is simply dust after all.
Tell me about this little detail.
It is nothing. I think Marion has her own agenda. I don't trust her.
And we do not trust you.
To be precise, the Soviet Union, General Zemanov, doesn't trust that you are the right man for the job.
You are not a party man. To them that means you are uncontrollable and thus untrustworthy.
Marion, on the other hand, is committed to her ideology and to her own power. To quite trustworthy qualities.
I see you as not having enough at stake.
I have my country at stake.
Well, I have persuaded General Zemanov, and he in turn, partially against his better judgment, has persuaded the Kremlin that you are the right man.
But he needs some guarantee.
What if I don't do it? Someone else will. Someone less capable, less convinced.
Set your timetable back. And that would be dangerous for your hope for America and for mine.
And what is your hope for America?
To salvage as much as possible.
American volunteers.
Yeah, labor to the Soviet Union. There are a lot of desperate workers.
Five-year contracts. There's a special rationalization for the people here.
Low wages, but kind of the ultimate company town to them.
Any of them come back?
It's too early to say.
They make it sound good the way they present it. Something to do with your skills.
They've given up on America.
Haven't you?
General Karen, you're a talented architect. A wonderful pilot.
Come on, Maggie, let's hear it.
A financial genius. You're not.
Do you know anybody who is?
We can help.

Finally, somebody put the strong medicine I want into an easy-to-take coated caplet.
Anisyn caplets. They give you anisyn strength, plus a protective coating for easy swallowing.

That's right, dear. Time to do those roots again.
You just can't burst in here like that. Oh no? Tell that to the writers.

A clue, a clue, a clue. Cause I know it.
Ah!
Tuesday night on ABC, it's a classic. Got you. Got you. Got you. Got you.
Californians have made this book their hands down favorite, the Pacific Bell Yellow Pages, second to none.
Because whether it's a telescope you want, or a grill for a vintage car, or tubulescence, or a driveway, or extra wide shoes,
there is no surer place in all the state to find them.
Certainly there are other directories, it's just hard to imagine why.
The Pacific Bell Yellow Pages, simply the best.

The Exiles have broken out of the camp and demonstrated in the Lincoln Day Parade in violation of restricted areas, curfew, and engaging in unlawful political activity, inciting to riot.
What is the status?
There is rampant insubordination. They are defiant. And if the situation is permitted to continue we will lose control, not just of the Exiles, but the entire area.
The authority of the unit must be maintained.
I wish to conduct a disciplinary reprise of the camp.
Colonel Denisova will not authorize an action like that.
Something has to be done.
You are authorized, under your standing orders, to take whatever measures you deem necessary to prevent a rebellion.
You are suggesting I do what is necessary to stop this insurrection.
You must do whatever you feel is necessary under your basic responsibilities.
Yes, sir.
This is the Yellow Tag?
Yeah, from the border.
Oh, he's got to be cleared.
How the hell do they have to bring him all the way in here?
Easy, easy.
Somebody want to sign me up on this?
We have to wait.
This is your official notification that the United Nations Special Service Unit will be conducting maneuvers inland and around the town of Milford, commencing at 0700 under 28.
Well, is there something you want me to do?
If you don't need my permission.
You will issue an advisory to townspeople to stay indoors and off the streets and roads.
Terrific.
He had no choice.
I suppose when one becomes president, one has a tendency to justify after he's freed of such a place.
A way of ensuring whoever follows some tolerance of your decision, right or wrong.
He saved a nuclear holocaust.
In my opinion, the way he handled the transition of power, he saved thousands of lives.
Maybe millions in what would have been futile resistance.
How can anyone know that?
How could he have not given us a chance?
You had a chance. I had a chance. We all had chances.
Have you ever been to the Middle East, Mr. Francis?
No.
For hundreds of years, the ordinary person, the trader, the person trying to survive, has learned not to approach his problems directly, but to assemble.
He seemed to support one thing and next the exact opposite.
All because that was the means of survival in the place that fate had been placed in.
They were born, make love, have children, are well off or poor, and die, much in the same way as free men.
Next comes freedom within each of us.
In a way it is. This is not an issue of freedom, but survival.
I know you don't like me. You see me as a stooge, a collaborator.
I'm not a party member. I sit on a national advisory committee, equivalent to the Central Committee in the Soviet Union, but I do not vote.
I have no power. I figure head only.
The only real effect I can have is to create the impression that things aren't as bad as they are.
To give our people time. The opportunity to survive.
I guess I just never realized that John so far,
we've lost so much control.
The authoritarianism doesn't need armies.
It only needs to control a couple of things.
The media and the ability to dispense privilege to some and withhold it from others.
Of course, a weak and divided people helps.
I don't think I can do it.
I look forward to it.
I don't think I can do it.
A little late for second thought.
I had some illusion I could help bring it back.
I believe you can do something.
Something finally good for the people of your area.
Possibly for everyone. But it will require a lot of compromise.
You may even learn to be a Middle Eastern traitor.
It's a border check. We're about to enter the late great state of Indiana.
We're about to enter the industrial area recently.
Not recently.
You're in for a treat. Used to be America's muscle, steel, aluminum, autos, rubber.
Now most everything's closed down.
They wanted a country which didn't have a productive capacity.
But it's hard enough.
Yes, sir.
We're blowing our way to giving it up before they get here.
What are they doing?
Trying to get across.
They're from the cities mostly which are dying.
The plans are on their way.
They're from the cities mostly which are dying.
The plans are all but down. Some of them are limping along.
They're allowed out?
For most of them this is it. They'll never get permission to cross.
They're just hanging around, some of them will drift back to wherever it was they came from.
American wreckage.
Yeah, it's almost like a contradiction in time.
Mr. Milford.
You're awake.
Mr. Milford.
You're awake.
He's in an 80% physical block.
My name is Helen Justin. I'm your doctor. Or at least one of them.
You've had a scary time. You were blown up. Nearly killed yourself.
No, I...
Is anything...
No, everything's intact. You won't be hobbling around on anything artificial.
How long?
Not for some time, I'm afraid. How soon you get out depends on how well you do with treatment.
There's no restraint. We have a little rule here. You make it at the door, you're free.
You seem to have a lot of very angry and unhelpful feelings.
Let me explain what we're going to try to accomplish here.
That's to save you the time and effort of trying to fight the treatment.
There've been so many bad things which created your antisocial behavior.
We're going to help you forget those things.
I think you'll find when you realize it's inevitable, things will go a lot smoother for you and be more comfortable.
Just rest.
Put yourself in our hands.
You'll be fine.
Better, in fact, than you thought possible.
Do you dream...
that he comes back?
I'm a psycho.
He says to me...
that he couldn't live without me.
He says that no matter what, he'll take care of me.
I'll be all right.
I didn't go with him.
Well, I don't think either of you were really...
You don't know, Mom. You have Daddy.
I had a choice.
He was scary.
Very scary.
I'm very glad I married your father.
What a bonus I could have missed.
You.
Your brother Scott.
The Hulk.
You could have skipped that.
If he knows you're not here, he'll come back.
He can.
But if he does come back, you still love him enough.
You don't like to give up.
You know?
Mom, you're supposed to be cheering me up.
I don't know what I could do.
My dearest Amanda, I'm writing to you now because I can't reach you.
Talk to you.
It's become second nature to me to have you part of everything I felt or did.
Decisions I made.
Everything has moved so fast since I got here.
As though I'm suddenly so far from Milford that it's already a part of my past.
I should tell you about the present.
What a sad man.
But somehow there's something noble in the humiliation he has carried for us all.
Maybe that's a greater service than leading an army in the battle.
Who knows?
I wonder about myself.
The choices I suddenly have.
What if they're the wrong ones?
What struck me is that I'm about to become a part of a system which some future generation is going to rebel against.
I'll be hated by people I don't even know.
Who don't understand why something was done.
Just as all the kids growing up now don't have any idea of the difference between the symbol of Abraham Lincoln and what he actually stood for.
You can't look at those eyes and not think of what being an American has meant.
Now there's an end to it.
Soon there will be no America.
There will be history.
Quickly lost and distorted like Mr. Lincoln himself.
I don't know.
I think of Jackie and Scott. We wanted to protect them.
Maybe we were trying not to infect them with our ideas which seem to have gone so wrong.
I suppose there will have to be new revolutions.
With new generations who will have to discover the values which our forefathers handed down to us.
If those truths stop being real, maybe it's better to let them go.
Let some new generation discover us though for the first time.
Maybe freedom is just one of those things you can't inherit.

Okay, time to buy some life insurance.
Now, who are the companies offering whole life?
I want protection plus cash value buildup.
Whoa, better cut that down. So, who are the top companies?
Ah, that did it.
Okay, now the biggie. Whose policies make more money?
I want the top-rated company.
Oh, Northwestern Mutual Life.
Hmm, that's all I needed to know.

Wow.

Speaker, the President, the Vice President, members of Congress, I come before you today with a great sense of humility.
Never expected to be here.
Like most Americans, the course of my life has not been what I expected it to be. But I wonder if George Washington, Thomas Jefferson, could have imagined the changes in our country just 30 years after their lifetime.
I wonder at the amazement of Abraham Lincoln if he would have seen the changes in the 19th century. Yet with all the changes, remained our country and survived.
Today we are facing changes which some of us find abhorrent, others hopeful. Some see it as the end, others as a beginning.
I come from a part of the country where in many ways life is simple, predictable, reliable.
In the spring when the ground is thawed we plant a seed. And in the summer it grows to maturity and is harvested.
And when we plant again it's not the same stalk of corn or grain which we saw standing beautiful in the field last summer.
But the seed is the same. And given our time, our effort, good fortune, a new crop will emerge which can feed hungry people.
The seed is in the ground. It is the history and experience of 200 years.
I promise you I will give it my faith and my life with the help of the people of my area, the heartland of this country. We will see a bountiful harvest.
Thank you.
The red phone was busy and the other phone was dead. Did he say he'd call? He said he'd call. I don't know. He wouldn't stop saying he'd call.
Mom, you can't go. Come on. It's not safe out there. They're going to be taking the road. Mom, don't go.
Mom, don't be here. There's nothing you can do out there. Mom, just stay with me and Dad. Come on. Mom, don't be dumb. At least talk to Dad first.
I trust the two of you'll stay here until I get back. Don't worry about me, okay? I'll be all right.
That's the sixteen-year-old he kissed his mother.
Sure, sure. Here, grab this one. I'd better stay with the kids. They're all scared to death.
We'll be back as soon as we can.
Mom, why don't you... I mean, they said we should stay inside all day. Ward said we shouldn't violate the curfew.
The hell with curfew. Nobody's going to tell me you were sitting around all day in my own house.
Dad, there's squatters.
Damn it, if we don't guess they are. Got something there for me to carry?
On your call to Newford, sir. Yes? There seems to be some problem. What? Line's down.
There's something wrong. There is no indication. It's very common.
