anything I can do?



POLICE

No, ma'am.



TRUMAN

Thank you for your help.



POLICE

You're welcome, Truman.



TRUMAN

(whispering slowly)

Truman...



MERYL

Truman!? Truman!? Truman, come back!

Truman!? Truman!? Stop him! Truman!?



In the Forest



TRUMAN

Stay away!........Ugh! No! No!



Men in radiation suits come out of the forest and capture Truman.



Truman's Home - Later



MERYL

Thank you both so much for your help. I

really appreciate it.



POLICE 1

He's lucky to be alive, ma'am.



POLICE 2

Next time we're going to hafta' file charges.



MERYL

I understand. Thanks again. Good night....Let me

get you some help, Truman. You're not well.



TRUMAN

Why do you want to have a baby with me? You can't

stand me.



MERYL

That's not true! Why don't you let me fix you some

of this new Mococoa drink. All natural cocoa beans

from the upper slopes of Mount Nicuragua, no artificial

sweeteners.



TRUMAN

What the hell are you talkin' about?...Who you talkin'

to?



MERYL

(super happy)

I've tasted other cocoas. This is the best.



TRUMAN

What does this hafta' do, with anything? Tell me

what's happening!



MERYL

Well, you're having a nervous breakdown, that's what's

happening.



TRUMAN

You're part of this, aren't you?



MERYL

Truman. You are scaring me!



TRUMAN

You're scaring me, Meryl. What're you going to do?

Dice me? Slice me? SO many CHOICES!



MERYL

DO SOMETHING!!



TRUMAN

What? What'd you say? Who are you talking to?



MERYL

Nothing. I didn't say anything. I didn't say

anything.



TRUMAN

You said "do something."



MERYL

No, I didn't.



TRUMAN

Talk.



MERYL

I wasn't talking to anyone.



TRUMAN

Tell me.



MERYL

Truman!



TRUMAN

Tell me!



MERYL

I wasn't talking to anyone! No! Please stop!



TRUMAN

(re: knock at the door)

Stay where you are.



MARLON

Truman?....Truman.



MERYL

(crying)

Oh my God...How can anyone expect me to carry on

under these conditions? It's unprofessional!



MARLON

Everything will be okay. It's all over now.



Unfinished Bridge



TRUMAN

Well, I don't know what to think, Marlon. Maybe

I'm losing my mind, but..it's like the whole world⊙⊙網⊙文⊙檔⊙下⊙載⊙與⊙在⊙線⊙閱⊙讀⊙

revolves around me somehow.



MARLON

That's a lot of world for one man, Truman. You

sure that's not wishful thinking? You wishing

you'd made more out of yourself? C'mon, Truman,

who hasn't sat on the john and had an imaginary

interview on "Seahaven Tonight"? Who hasn't

wanted to be somebody?



TRUMAN

This is different. Everybody seems to be in on it.



MARLON

I've been your best friend since we were seven

years old, Truman. The only way you and I ever

made it through school was by cheatin' off each

other's test papers. Jesus, they were identical.

I always felt safe knowing that. 'Cause whatever

the answer was--



TRUMAN AND MARLON

--We were right together and we were wrong together.



MARLON

Remember that time I stayed up with you all night

in your tent, 'cause you wanted to play North Pole,

and I got pneumonia?



TRUMAN

(laughs)



MARLON

You remember that?



TRUMAN

You were out of school for about a month.



MARLON

You're the closest thing I've ever had to a

brother, Truman. I know things..haven't really worked

out for either of us like we used to dream they would.

I know that feeling once the good things just slipped

away. You don't wanna believe it, so you..you look

for answers somewhere else, but...

Control Room



CHRISTOF

Well, the point is, I'd gladly walk in front of traffic

for you.



Unfinished Bridge



MARLON

The point is I would gladly step in front of traffic for you,

Truman.
