You're holding up the bus. - I ain't never held up a bus in my life. But it sounds like a good idea. - I wonder if the judge said either this or reform school. - It's always nice to have a choice. - Hi there, officer.

Smell the pine. - That's no pine, that's a wheelchair, God. - Well, let him go. - I can take him. - He's handicapped. - The hell he is! He's probably got a 350 fuel injected turbo in there ` the whole works. - Albert! - I can take him! (ELECTRIC GUITAR SOLO) - Albert. When you were born, were your parents expecting children? - (SCREAMS) (FUNKY MUSIC) (MUSIC FADES) - OK. Let's go. (UPBEAT MUSIC) - (SCATTERED CHATTER, LAUGHTER) - Ah, you must be` - How many campers in wheelchairs you got? - Oh, I thought this was one of those new Hondas. - Not unfunny.

Warm up at your cabin assignments. Move it. Move it. - (CHEERING) - Oh, and you boys. Keep your pinkies the hell away from my ladies. - (SHOUTING, LAUGHTER) - Come on, girls. This way. - (SHOUTING CONTINUES) - Come on. Pinkies? God, do you believe her? - (SIGHS) - Woo! - This is that exact same camp that was in that movie Friday the 13th, one where all those kids got murdered, dead for no reason. - Ah, relax. Everybody's nervous the first day. - Look at this shit. - OK, here's eight stamp postcards. I want you to send me one a week, so I know you're OK. - Ma, you're trying to live my whole life for me. - How can you say that? - These cards are already written. - No talking after lights out, Barry. - I'm Larry, Dad. He's Barry. - Oh, sorry, son. And be sure to eat everything on your plate, Larry. - I'm Barry, Mom. He's Larry. - Oh, sorry, son. Remember to be a good sport, Barry. - I'm Larry, Dad. - I'm not your father, Barry. I'm your mother. - I'm not Barry! - I'm Barry, Mom. - Not your mother, Larry. I'm your father. - I'm not Larry. - He's not your father. - I'm gonna miss you, Damian. - I'll miss you more, Susie. Can I have something to remember you by? - I don't want you smoking pot. - Ma, I might just experiment. - Well, don't pay for it. - (CHATTER IN DISTANCE) - (POP!) - Hey, are those alive? - No. They're stuffed. - You mean like cashews, bread crumbs, raisins. How much you want for one? - Hey! They're pets. - Psst! You need a fix? - What do you got? - What's your thing, man? - And remember, boys only want one thing. - What's wrong with that? - They never want it when you want it. (THEATRICAL MUSIC) - Woo! Right hand. - (CONTINUES SHOUTING) (MUSIC CONTINUES) That's it. Double time, young troopers. Get to those in line. Pick up that foot and those rifles. - ALL: Ha-ya! Ha-ya! - Ha-ya! - (SCREAMS) - Ha-ya! - CHILDREN: Ha-ya! - Rip them from the crotch to crown, boy, that's it. Come on. Move 'em out, trooper. - (SCREAMING) - Fine bunch of campers this year, Foxglove. - Mm-hm. Mm. - I tell you, they're naturals. You'd put a pig sticker on the end of a rifle, and a boy knows just what to do with it. (EXCLAIMS AGGRESSIVELY) - (SCREAMING) - God, I love it so. - Mm. - Let's go. - (SCREAMING) - (BOTH EXCLAIM) - Ha-ya! (CHUCKLES) Young whippersnapper. (CHUCKLES) - (SCREAMING CONTINUES IN DISTANCE) - Get outta here. He sucks. - (CHUCKLES) - (SCATTERED CHATTER) - Sally Friedman? - Here. - Tula Washington? - Lookin' at her. - Nancy Lamon? - OK, now, Cabin Six. Which one of you boys is Armand Carducci? All right, I'll repeat myself. Who's Armand Carducci? - The name's Flash. And it's the only one I answer to. - OK, Flash. I'm Giddy, uh, Coach Giddy. Uh, I'm the head counsellor here. I'm` I'm in charge here. - I got the picture. - Good. Now, we're not comfortable with trouble at Sasquatch. - So don't give me any. - I hear what you're saying. I know your reputation, Flash. There's only one thing I like about it. - Yeah. What's that? - How open are you to the concept of pugilism? - What kind of weird shit goes on around here? - Talking about boxing. It's sport, fighting with rules. - I don't do rules. - I heard you're pretty good with your hands. - Yeah. So what if I am. - Well, we've got a tradition around here. It's called Champ of the Lake. It's us against Camp Patton. Camp Patton; that's the camp across the lake. The other side there. It's sort of like a summer Golden Gloves. Now we got to fighter Boomer, he's great, but he needs a little help, Flash. He needs a sparring partner, a real two-fisted talent, somebody like you. What do you say? - Listen, Mr Coach. I'm not what you call a team player. - What if I said I'm tellin', not askin'? - Are you? - Nah. - So then why don't you back off my case, huh? I don't do volunteer work. You want to give me Cabin Six? I'll take it. The judge says that's my sentence. That's the total picture, all right? - You know, if you change your mind... - Trade you my goalie stick for a Clark Bar. Hey, cool it, Butterball. I don't do exclusive. I gotta build up a clientele. That watch quartz? - Yeah, but my dad gave it to me. - You always get the bed by the window. - But I'm the oldest. (CHUCKLES) - Yeah. You always tell. - That's mine! - It's mine! - Who does Mom love best? - Me. - You wanted the shirt too? - (SCATTERED CHATTER) - All right, you turkeys. Shut up! - (WHISPERS) Oh my gosh. - The name's Flash. Mr Flash. And I only got one rule: don't bug me. You got that, you little twerps? If you've got a problem, tough. Don't bring it to me. I don't do problems. - Mr Flash, can we` - Hey. One more thing you should know; I don't do questions either. - (STATIC WHIZZING) - See that, Foxglove? Morons, wimps and losers. - Same as last year, sir. - (CHUCKLES) This summer, we're going to crush 'em. - That's the spirit, sir. - Was that a lisp? Did I hear a lisp, Foxglove? - A lisp, sir? - Goddamn, homo talk. - Impossible, Colonel, we're alone. - Cover my back. - Yes, sir. - (CROW CAWS) - I was seeing this guy. Real cute, but they hated his guts, and they were driving me crazy. Well, I was driving them crazy. So they decided the best thing for me was camp. You know what I mean? - Yeah, I know what you mean. - This one I just couldn't resist. What do you think? - They're really nice. - (CHUCKLES) Couldn't make up my mind. Hey, you wanna borrow one? - Do you think that'd be OK? - Oh, sure. I got tons. What about shorts? You got shorts? - Well, not exactly. - Here, try these. Oh, and this goes really cute with that. - Oh, Nancy, I couldn't. - Listen, we're sisters, right? Us against the Pinkies. Go on. - (CHUCKLES) OK, thanks. - (CROW CAWS) (WHIMSICAL SYNTH MUSIC) - You` You like me or not? - Yes, I like you. But I think we should set a good example. - FLUSTERED: Oh, well. Look, nobody knows we're here. This is a great place. (CHUCKLES) - Not like that spot last summer. - No. No, no, no. - All those kids. All those flashbulbs. - No. No, no, no. - Or that time down at the lake. - Oh, Fanny, look, snakes only come out like that once a year. - Are you sure we're alone? - Sure. Look around. (CHUCKLES) - You know, it's just getting so foggy that I think we should go back to camp. - It's not that far from here. - Oh, we'll do it some other time. (MYSTERIOUS SYNTH MUSIC) (MUSIC CONTINUES) - Mom, it's really creepy here. I want to go home. - But you'll like this camp. Sunny, you'll see. - But it's not even in our solar system. - Hey! Don't you want to earn your Earth merit badge? - Yes, Dad. Then what's to talk? - Now, Sunny, it looks like rain, so be sure to wear your little raincoat, dear. - But I don't want to wear Earth clothes. - That's nonsense, son. You're going to be just fine. You'll see. - Listen to this. Who spent 325 gemokers on English lessons for you? - You, Dad. - So kiss your mother goodbye. - Goodbye, dear. (SMOOCHES) - And be careful from the poison ivy. - OK. (MYSTERIOUS SYNTH MUSIC) (UPBEAT GUITAR MUSIC) - Hey, sis. Off the ciggies, on the vape. You're halfway there! - I know you've tried so many times to give up smoking. - And this is the one that stuck. - You're looking so good now. I can see that glow on your face and in your eyes. - Good on ya, girl! - You're a strong mana wahine. - Keep going. I'm with you all the way. - Keep up the mahi. (BOTH CHUCKLE) - Let's go. - (LAUGHS) - Quitting smoking is the best thing for your health. Vaping is way less harmful and can help you get off the smokes. * - (SCATTERED CHATTER) - (HUMS) # La, la, la-la, la. # - Good morning, Ray. - (SPITS NOISILY) - Ah, big day ahead of us, huh? - It is. - You under control in here? - But of course. - Mm-hm. - Some little adjustments maybe, heh? - Listen to me, you crazy frog. I want food we can eat. Burgers, doggies, home fries, eggs over easy. I'll go as far as French toast, but nothing ` nothing fancy. Do you know where I'm coming from? - Yes. - I don't. - (FRANTIC DOOR KNOCKING) - Come on, will ya? Open up! Come on, open up! - I'm going first. - You always go first. - Who was born first? - Me. - So give me a break, will you? - BOTH: I gotta go! - Both of you at the same time. That's sick. - What's the problem? - I think somebody died in there. - Here, take this. - Let her rip. - (WHIRRING) (WHIMSICAL SYNTH MUSIC) - (STUTTERS) What is it? - I don't know. - It sure is no pet. - Ted's right. He's afraid. - He's not the only one. - You think maybe, like, maybe he's from... - Are` Are you from space? Did you see that? Did you` I mean` Wow, it understood. - Yeah, it did. - It really did. - (DOOR SQUEAKS) - (ELECTRONIC TONE) - ALL: Wow. - That sure is a great trick. - Do you have a name? - (SQUEAKS) - Where are you from? - Me, Ted. Who are you? - Me, Ted. - what did he say? - Think he said Meathead. - Me, Ted. - Meathead? - Meathead's what he said. - Meathead. - Listen up, Meathead. We won't hurt you or anything. We're just, you know, curious. We've never seen a... something like you before. - Look, we got to go for breakfast. Do you want us to bring anything back? - Uh. Big Mac. - How does he know about Big Macs? - Think he's got a guide book. (UPBEAT MUSIC) - (LAUGHTER) - You are. - I am not. I think you should go. (MUSIC CONTINUES) - OK... - On your toes. - Come on! - All right. - Can you hurry? - Put your head back. - Hi, girls. What's happenin'? My name's Flash. What's yours? - Don't talk to him, Cheryl. He's a dork. - I'm not a dork. I'm Italian. (UPBEAT MUSIC) - Other way. - Hey, Flash. - Nah, I'm just lookin'. - Come on, come over here. Did you ever put the gloves on? - Where I come from, fighters don't have time for dressing up. Besides, I'm just lookin'. - Kick 'em high, ladies! Up, up, up. - Hey, Boomer. Boomer. This is Flash. The kid with the reputation. - Oh, yeah. Hey, Flash. - How's it goin'? - Pretty slow. - I can believe it. - What is that? Some kind of crack, Bash? - Flash. - Oh, yeah. Hey, you know, Mash, you got a pretty good sense of humour. You know what I'm going to do? I'm gonna knock it right out of your head. Wham, bam. Wham. What do you think of that? - You want to try? - Sure. I love fighting. - Put 'em on. - OK. - Kick 'em high, ladies! Up, up, up. There you go. - You take it easy. Keep your guard up, eh? Nothing fancy. - Come on. Right here, right here. Come on. You gotta do better than that, man. (FUNKY MUSIC) - That's all for today, ladies. - (GRUNTING) - (SILENCE) - (SCATTERED CHATTER) - Hey, trash. Hey, didn't anybody ever tell you boxing and broads don't mix? - That guy really is a dork. - A what? - A dork. You know, dork. - Oh yeah, sure, a dork. - Hey, like, you know, you're a pretty good fighter, Crash. - Thanks. You're not so bad yourself, Bloomer. - My name is Boomer. What are you, making fun of me again? I'm sorry. -Nancy. Will Flash always be... a dork? - (SCOFFS) You really don't know what it is, do you? Dork. You know, like in joystick. Peter? Wang? Pud? Equipment. Uh, pinky. - Oh, that's what it is. - So you did know, right? - Well, I mean, I knew it. - You ever seen one? - Sure. Lots of times. - What, you got a brother or something? - No. - A boyfriend? - Well, not really. - Well, then who? - Who what? - Whose did you see? - Oh! - Look. Come with me, and I'll show you a couple of real doozers. - Oh my God. - Try not to have a heart attack. - Oh, boy, he is really somethin'. I've seen bigger though. - You mean, they come in different sizes. - Haven't you ever seen one? Hey, guess who's never seen a` - Oh, nice going. - What'd I say? What did I say? - Whoa. I've never seen one that big before. - You've never seen one before. - Have too ` my brother. - Yeah, but he's five. - No. He's six. - You know, Tula didn't mean anything by that. It's just that` Well, you act like you've been in a convent your whole life. - Well, I haven't. It's just that... we don't discuss those sort of things. - You mean, nobody ever even talked to you about it. - You mean, S-E-X? - Don't tell me. Like, they always spelled it out? - Always. - Oh, brother. You don't know anything, do you? Come on. OK, you guys, listen up. You know, like, there was a time not so long ago, I might add, when all of us were just as deprived as Cheryl here. So I say that we got to help her. I say that we take a pledge that before camp ends,... - ...she sees a pinky. (LAUGHS) - All right! - (LAUGHTER) - Are you sure? - Yes. We're going to... - What's goin' on in here? - Nothin'. - Is that a fact? Hm! Whose` is this? No matter. It's confiscated. Just remember, ladies, that this is a cabin for proper young women. There will be no talk of pinkies. They're not play things, you know. They're weapons, dangerous weapons. Like loaded guns, they can go off when you least expect it. Do I make myself clear? - ALL: Yes, Fanny. - Good. * - (DOOR SHUTS) - Ah, what a beautiful day. You really think so, do you? Boomer. Boomer, Boomer. Boomer! - (CLASH!) - Oh, hey, Giddy is that you? I can't see; I got a canoe on my head. - I noticed (!) Boomer, please, the lake's the other way. - Oh, thanks, Giddy. - Don't mention it. - (SCREECHES PAINFULLY) Giddy! (GROANS) I'm goin` Oh, oh! - (DUCKS QUACK) - I think I got a fish in my pants. Oh no, wait. That's just me. - Oh, what's it called? - Kybo. K-Y-B-O. 'Keep Your Files Open'. They were supposed to burn them when they switched over to what we have now. - Uh-huh. - I mean, no would come here. It's totally safe. - Yeah, I can believe. - So what do you think, Meathead? - Kybo, huh? OK. That one. I like that one. - Quarter moon. - ALL: Good choice. - Thank you. Ooh, did somebody fart? Ooh. (FANFARE) - (EXCLAIMS RHYTHMICALLY) Attention! Two fingers off the bridge of the nose, young trooper. Ten-Hut! - Chief Rawhide's here to see you, sir. - (SIGHS) Is he wearin' those damn feathers? - Yes, sir. Accented by some lovely little beads. - A lisp. Goddammit, Foxglove, I heard a lisp. - I'll check into it, sir. - I hate feathers. - Bitch. - How? - Who? - Where? - Here. - What? - Rights to lake. - Ha-ha. - No acid rain,... - Good. - ...no PCBs,... - Great. - ...clear like mountain stream,... - I love it. - ...many fish,... - Mm. - ...wind surfing potential. - Ha-ha. - Good deal. - Mm. - You make fair trade. - I'm a fair guy, Chief. Honest engine. (CHORTLES) Engine. (DRUM ROLL) (FANFARE) (MAJESTIC MUSIC) - Attention! - Morning, Colonel. - You call these ankle-biters campers, Giddy. My God, it's worse than last year. It's a goddamn waste of human potential. - Listen to me, you pipsqueak, pistol-packin' package of paramilitary paranoia. - How do you say that so fast? - Uh... I-I hear what you're saying, Colonel. - Hey. Well, of course, you can hear me here; we're only six inches apart. - No, no, no, no. I mean-I mean, I respect you, obviously, your space; I know where you're comin' from. - Oh, don't give me that communication bullshit, Giddy. I'm here on a mission, and I will not be heard! You will not hear me. You` Well, I'll tell you where I'm comin' from, Giddy. I'm coming from my lake. Show him the papers, Foxglove. - Yes, sir. - It's mine. All mine from shore to shore. Men! - (SOLDIER EXCLAIMS) - Wait, the Chief sold you` But I` Wait. - (SNIGGERS) - What good is my camp without a lake? -Exactly my point, counsellor. This year's Champ Sunday is going to be your last. Foxglove! - Wait. Colonel, Colonel, please, please. Let's` Can we discuss this over lunch? - Lunch? You're nuts. We're gonna pave this place, Foxglove. We're gonna wall-to-wall concrete. We're going to flank it with howitzers, and we're going to bring a whole goddamn division T47s right here. - Relax. Relax. I can handle this. (GROANS) - (THUNDER RUMBLES) - (HOWLING) - I hope he's OK. - It was your big idea. - (ELECTRONIC BUZZ) - (YELPS) - (ALL EXCLAIM) - Oh, um` sorry, guys. It's only me. Sorry. - What are you doing here? - I came to tell you I'm OK. - Hey! What's goin' on out there? - Uh-oh. Be cool, guys. Be cool. - Sorry, Mr Flash. - Tell him you're just scared. - Just... - Scared. - ...scared. - Good. - You know, this would be a whole lot sorrier if The Flash misses out on his sleep. - BOTH: Yes, sir. - Hit the sheets. - BOTH: Whew! - Meathead, you got to start using the door around here. - You OK? - Was that close, guys, or was that close? (SIGHS) - Oh, I've seen closer. Well, maybe not that close. - (DUCKS QUACK) - (TAMBOURINES JINGLE, SCATTERED CHATTER) - What the goddamn hell is that, Foxglove? - Sounds like... tambourines. Whoa, Marcel. - (GRUNTS) - (GROANS) (SIGHS) - (JINGLING) - Colonel, what a pleasant surprise. - Don't give me that bleeding heart routine, Giddy. I want to know what those little` - Priests. - Priests. Wha` What are they doing? - Praying. - Praying? What are they praying for? - Their new home. - 'Home'? Home. What home? God's tooth, Giddy, what have you done? - Like I said, Colonel, what good's a camp with no lake? But a temple. - (EXHALES) Temple. No. No! - Yeah, I'm going back to the urban ghettos ` poverty, crime, trash, disease, honest work. - You can't do that! - I've had a lot of good years here. Wonderful kids, some success stories. I want to give something back. These people need a place to let their sheets down. - Giddy, no! You can't do it, you can't do it. You can't! These people. I hear they wipe with their bare hands. - That's just it; they don't use water. - Giddy, Giddy, look. I'll be the first to admit I've been rash. - Oh no, wait. Here comes one of 'em now. Here. - (TAMBOURINES JINGLE) - Hi. Your Excellence, come in. - Oh, Giddy. Are you out of your mind?! - Your Excellence, please shake hands with a good friend of mine, Colonel Hershey. - # I love you. # - (SHUDDERS) Get him out of here, Giddy! - (CONTINUES SINGING) - OK. Your Excellence, Your Excellence, five minutes and then we'll change the paperwork, OK? - (VOCALISES) - (JINGLING CONTINUES) - DESPERATELY: Giddy, Giddy, please. You've got to listen to me. - Part of me hears what you say, and then part of me doesn't. Jackboots and marching tunes are a thing of the past. Bare feet and mantras are taking over the country. (SINGS MANTRA) - Oh no, not you, Giddy. Now, listen. There's gotta be some way. - There's always Champ of the Lake. - Champ of the Lake. What are you talkin' about? Make sense, Giddy. - Our last fight, Colonel. How about I hold off the sale? Would you like that? - Oh, you're damn right I'd like that. - You raise the stakes on Champ of the Lake, I'll put a hold on their deal. - Raise the stakes? Sure, I'll raise 'em. Grace, Giddy, you name it. - My camp for your water rights. All or nothing. - The whole shootin' match? - Kit and caboodle. - Lock, stock and barrel? - The works. - From here to eternity? - The whole enchilada. - Dammit, I'll take it. (CHORTLES) But I'll take the whole goddamn thing. (CHEERS) Foxglove! - (DOOR SLAMS SHUT) - Hook, line and sinker. - All right, Mr Dumb John. - Yeah. - I know what this is. But what does this mean? - This one's for you. This one's for the horse you rode in on. - (HORSE WHINNIES) - (CHUCKLES) - (CLASH!) - Hey! - (WHINNIES) - Hands off that horse. It's my horse! - A-ha! I knew it would feed an army. - (GROANS) - (CHUCKLES) * - (GUNSHOTS RING) - Didn't I tell you campers no smoking? Didn't I? (EXHALES BREATHLESSLY) Didn't I? - I should hope so. Filthy habit. Colonel's expecting you. Yes, pot. (HUMS) - You called, sir? - Of course, I'm called sir; I'm a bloody colonel, aren't I? - Yes, sir. - Sergeant Paladin, your mission, should you choose to accept it, is to sound off like you got up there, move out like you had a purpose, grab your squad, hit that Assault Craft, cross that lake, and neutralise this idiot with extreme prejudice. (FUNKY MUSIC) - Hey! The ancient Sasquatch Indians used to boogie to this one, and now so can you! (WARBLES) (MUSIC CONTINUES) - Um, are you gonna be OK here? - Yeah, I'll be fine. - OK. - I wanna dance. - Oh yeah? With what? - Tall, lean and mean. - There's a horse outside.
