to Ocean



KIRK

I don't like the look of that weather, son.

I think we should head back.



YOUNG TRUMAN

Oh no, Dad.



KIRK

No..we should go back.



YOUNG TRUMAN

Just a little further. Please.



KIRK

Okay.



YOUNG TRUMAN

Yeah.



THUNDER

(boom)



YOUNG TRUMAN

Daddy!



Beach



TRUMAN

Ugh. Ha ha ha ha ha! Ahhhhhhhh!



Truman Home



MERYL

You're soaked! Where have you been?



TRUMAN

I figured we could scrape together eight

thousand dollars--



MERYL

Every time you and Marlon get together something--



TRUMAN

We could bum around the world for a year

on that.



MERYL

And then what, Truman? We'd be where we were

five years ago. You're talking like a

teenager.



TRUMAN

Maybe I feel like a teenager.



MERYL

We have mortgage payments, Truman. We have

car payments. What? We're just going to

walk away from our financial obligations?



TRUMAN

We need adventure..



MERYL

I thought we were going to try for a baby.

Isn't that enough of an adventure?



TRUMAN

That can wait. I need to get away. See

some of the world. Explore!



MERYL

You want to be an explorer...This'll pass.

We all think like this now and again.

Let's get you out of these wet clothes,

huh? And into bed.



Security Garage



SECURITY GUARD

You never see anything anyway. They always

uh..turn the camera, and..play music and...you

know, the wind blows and then the curtain moves.

You don't see anything.



Newspaper Stand



TRUMAN

Ooohhhhh...and I'll pick one of these up

while I'm at it.



HAROLD

For the wife.



TRUMAN

She's gotta' have 'em.



HAROLD

Anything else?



TRUMAN

That's the whole ball o' wax.



HAROLD

See ya' later Truman.



On the Street



TRUMAN

Dad?........Hey. What're you doing? Hey!

Oh! Oof! Ah! Move out of the way! Stop

them! Oh! Oh. Oof. No no wait! Stop! Stop!

Hey! Open the doors! Open the...! Somebody

stop the bus! Stop the bus! Somebody stop it!



Truman's Mother's House



MOTHER

It doesn't sound insane at all, Truman.

I see him ten times a week, in a hundred

different faces. You know I almost hugged a

perfect stranger in the salon last Thursday.



TRUMAN

It was dad. I swear! Dressed like a homeless

man! And you know what else was strange? A

business man and a woman with a little dog came

out of nowhere and forced him onto a bus.



MOTHER

Well! It's about time they cleaned up the trash

downtown before we become just like the rest

of the country.



TRUMAN

They never found Dad's body. Maybe somehow...



MOTHER

Oh no...!

TRUMAN

I'm telling you, if it wasn't him, it was

his twin. Did dad have a bother?



MOTHER

Truman, you know perfectly well that your

father was an only child, just like you.

No sweetie, you're just feeling bad because

of what happened. You, sailing off into

that storm....But I never blamed you, Truman.

And I don't blame you now.



Truman's Basement



MERYL

What're you doing down here?



TRUMAN

Fixin' the mower....I saw my father today.



MERYL

I know....

(in response to Truman's

paranoid look)

Your mother called. You REALLY shouldn't upset

her like that.



TRUMAN

Did you want--? What did you want?



MERYL

(super happy)

I made macaroni!



TRUMAN

I'm not hungry.



MERYL

You know..you really oughta' throw out that

mower. Get one of those new Elk Rotaries.



The Truman Bar



WAITRESS

(re: Truman holding red

sweater)

What's he doing?



WAITRESS

See, they got rid of her, but they couldn't

erase the memory.



WAITRESS

The memory of who?



WAITRESS

shh shh shh shh shh shh...
