Right this way.
Well...
Welcome. Welcome to our happy home.

What did you say your name was?
Uh, Grace Farrell.
GIRL 3: I bet she wants a girl to clean her house.
I bet it's gonna be me.
I'm here to inquire about an orphan.
Wait, Grace, I can explain the whole thing.
You see, what happened was,
the child actually bribed Mr. Bundles
to smuggle her out of here in a laundry basket.
I know I should've called Mr. Donatelli,
but the plain truth of the matter is I just saw red,
so I called the cops instead.
Anyway, she's back. Everything's fine.
All's well that ends well, don't you know?
No harm, no foul, huh, my little scissors legs?
Miss Hannigan, what are you talking about?
Hold it, sister. Are you peddling beauty products?
Because I don't need no beauty products.
If that's what you're doing, you can just peddle yourself right on out of here, sweetie.
Miss Hannigan,
I am the private secretary to Oliver Warbucks.
The Oliver Warbucks?
Oliver Warbucks, the millionaire?
No. Oliver Warbucks, the billionaire.
(THUDS)
Holy Mary, Mother of God.
Mr. Warbucks would like to invite an orphan
to spend a week with him in his home.
(DOOR CREAKS OPEN)
I'm here to select one.
Well, that's just wonderful.
What kind of an orphan did he have in mind?
Oh, well, um...
Friendly.
Intelligent.
M, I, double S, I, double S, I,
double P, I.
And happy.

(GRACE LAUGHING)
Oh!
How old?
(CLEARING THROAT) Well, age doesn't really matter.
MISS HANNIGAN: Uh-huh.
Seven.
Eight.
Nine?
Nine.
GRACE: Ten?
Yes, ten's fine. Ten's just fine.
Ten? Ten.
GRACE: (LAUGHING) Oh, I'm so sorry. I almost forgot.
Mr. Warbucks prefers redheaded children.
10-year-old redhead, huh?
Yes.
Nope. Sorry. Ain't got it.
Well, what about this child?
Yes.
(LAUGHING)
You wouldn't...
You don't want Annie.
Well, why not?
She's, uh...
She's a drunk.
Oh, fiddle-faddle, Miss Hannigan.
Annie, how would you like to spend a week with Mr. Warbucks at his house?
Oh, boy! I would love to.
I would really, really love to!
Hey, wait a minute. Just slow down, hold on there.
You can have any orphan in the whole orphanage except Annie.
Well, why?
Because she's got it coming to her
and I don't mean a week in the lap of luxury.
This brat's got to learn to know her place.
Her place?
And Annie's entirely too cheeky.
Well, Mr. Warbucks likes cheeky orphans.
Tough!
I assume that your resistance has something to do
with Mr. Donatelli and the Board of New York Orphans.
Don't assume nothing, sweetheart.
Well, Mr. Warbucks and Mr. Donatelli are like that.
Yes, that's a fact.
And it's also a fact that he was out at the house just the other day
and he was saying how many people he had lined up for your job.
That's a fact.
It's an awful time to be out of work, isn't it, Miss Hannigan?
Just terrible.
Leaping lizards!
"Leaping lizards!"
Come along, Annie. Mr. Warbucks' limousine is waiting.
What?
Here, Sandy. Come here.
He's really nice.
Really, really good.
He never jumps up on people.
Oh, no! Oh!
Annie, he's a very, very sweet dog,
but really, I don't think it'll work. Mr. Warbucks...
Then I'm not coming.
What?
She's going to send him to the sausage factory.
She said so herself.
I'm not zoned for dogs.
We'll take the dog.
Oh, boy.
Oh, boy.
Bye, Annie!
Bye, Annie!
I'll be back.
I'll bring everybody presents.

Bye, Annie! So long!

This is the orphan who will be staying with us for a week.
Orphan? What are you talking about?
Well, they wanted to take photographs of you sharing
your home, sir, with an orphan.
Don't you remember, sir? It's only for a week.
This doesn't look like a boy. Orphans are boys.
Oh, you didn't say you wanted a boy, sir.
You just said an orphan, so I got a girl.
I want a boy!
I've got an interesting smile too, sir.
Don't you think maybe you could learn to like me, too, sir?
Hang me in the bathroom?
Take them back now.
Oh, oh, sir, she just got here.
That's okay, Miss Farrell. We'll be okay.
It was really nice meeting you, anyhow.
I sure do like your place.
Annie.
I've really had a swell time already.
The Asp drove us here in a car the size of a train, Mr. Warbucks.
And Punjab put a spell on Sandy.
And we made Drake sneeze.
And I played your pipe organ.
And Sandy got a bubble bath.
And, well, I've had enough fun to last me for years.
It's a really swell idea to have an orphan for a week, Mr. Warbucks.
A really terrific idea.
Even if it's only for your image,
even if I'm not the orphan,
I'm glad you're doing it.
I'm glad you approve.
Let's get to work!
Are you sure you need a boy, sir?
It's only for a week. Couldn't she stay?

He was trying to save your life.
Go on, you mutt. Get out of here!
Come on, Sandy.
Yeah!
Like my suit?
What? Oh, yes.
Miss Farrell picked it out.
I never thought I'd get used to a girl.
Girls are easier to get used to than boys.
Look how used to Miss Farrell you are.
She does all the work around here,
and you don't even know her first name.
I do. It's Grace.
She thinks you're the greatest thing since sliced bread.
I beg your pardon?
I know it's none of my business,
but you never notice anything.
Sliced bread.
WARBUCKS: Wilhelm, how are you?
Please offer your son my congratulations on his engagement.
Hold on, Wilhelm.
Buy copper! Buy copper!
Yes.
And tell the crown prince that my yacht in Monte Carlo
is entirely at his disposal for the honeymoon.
Hold on, Wilhelm.
More copper! More copper!
Don't encourage her, Punjab!
I'm sorry, sir. Maybe I should take her out.
Good idea. Where do you want to go?
To Washington, to meet President Roosevelt.
How about a movie?
Pepper went to a movie once,
before she came to the orphanage,
and she said it was swell.
And Miss Hannigan goes all the time.
Splendid! Take her to the Radio City Music Hall.
Aren't you gonna take me?
(SCOFFS) Me?
Annie, you may think that Miss Farrell does all the work around here,
but it's not entirely true.
I'm a busy man. A very busy man.
I know. I didn't mean to get in the way, Mr. Warbucks.
Nobody has to take me anywhere.
I'll go practice my backhand.
Pepper lies a lot.
She probably hasn't been to a movie, either.
Actually, I think it's better
when you don't know what you're missing.
Punjab, buy out the 8:00 show.
Let's all go to the movies.
(BOTH GIGGLING)
You know, you should leave your hair down. It looks so pretty.
Oh, no, no, Annie. I couldn't. I just couldn't.
Miss Hannigan says a man don't look at your brains.
Oh, really? My goodness! Come on, Annie.
Let's go to the movies.
Let's go see the stars.
Yeah.

For the Lady of the Camellias.
And they're almost twice as large as usual.
I shall have twice as many as usual tomorrow.
Twice as ma...
Oh, don't listen to her, Barjon.
I know what those things cost.
Aren't you willing to listen to her
when she orders her caps and dresses from you?
They're an investment.
You won't be young forever.
It's high time you settle something about your future.
And I know the very man for you.
MARGUERITE: Really?
WOMAN: Yes, really.
No one has ever loved you as I love you.
Well, it might be true. But what can I do about it?
You should go away and not see me anymore.
But don't go in anger.
Now, why don't you laugh at yourself a little,
as I laugh at myself, and come talk to me once in a while
in a friendly way.
ARMAND: That's too much and not enough.
Believe in love, Marguerite.
So you do love him?
Dare to tell me that you love him,
and you're free of me forever.
I love him.
Come in. Come in here, all of you.
See this woman? You know her.
Armand.
I accepted her favors because I thought she loved me.
I let her make sacrifices for me
when there were others who had more to give.
But bear witness, I owe her nothing.
Take it. Go on. Take it.
Buy camellias. Buy diamonds, horses and carriages.
Buy moonlight. Buy a grave!
MAN: I congratulate you, monsieur.
You know how to treat a woman as she deserves.
Like the cheat this one is.
Marguerite.
(WEAKLY) Armand.
Marguerite!
Oh, it's you.
ARMAND: I've been down in the street half the night,
walking back and forth under your window,
just as I did when I first knew you,
wanting to come up, but not daring to.
I felt so guilty.
Don't think such things, Marguerite.
Even if we can't go to the country today,
think of how happy we were once,
and how happy we shall be again.
Think of the day you found the four-leaf clover,
and of all the good luck it's going to bring us.
Think of the vows we heard Nichette and Gustave make.
And that we're going to make, to each other.
This is for life, Marguerite.
Marguerite.
Marguerite.
No.
No, don't leave me!
Marguerite, come back.
(SNIFFLING)
Could you get her nightgown? It's behind the bathroom door.
Certainly. Certainly.
Miss Farrell...
No, no, no. It's all right.
How did you learn that?
That.
What?
You put her to bed.
Well, you put her to bed, too.
Yes, you did.
(CHUCKLES)
That was a wonderful evening you gave her last night, sir. Just wonderful.
I gonna have to close a factory in Pittsburgh, Miss Farrell.
About Annie...
What about Annie?
Could we keep her?
You haven't seen that horrible orphanage.
I can't bear to send her back there. I can't.
Get a hold of yourself, Miss Farrell. What's come over you?
She wouldn't be a bother. I'd take care of her.
You have plenty of room here. The staff adores her.
We could take her on as your ward, couldn't we?
Absolutely not. I'm a businessman.
I love money. I love power.
I love capitalism.
I do not now, and never will, love children.
Watching you with her last night, I thought maybe...
Grace.
Yes?
I just noticed something.
Yes?
You're awfully pretty when you argue with me.
Thank you, sir, but...
Oliver.
Oliver.
Do you really just love money and power and capitalism?
You know they're never going to love you back.
Your teeth are crooked.
I'll have them fixed.
I like them crooked.
I'll leave them.
Thank you.
I could have the papers signed this morning.
Grace.
Oliver.
It means a great deal to you, doesn't it?
Yes, it means a great deal to me.
I'll do it myself.
Oh, I could just kiss you!
Yes?
Get her a little gift.
That's a good idea.
Something from Tiffany's. A new locket.
Oh, and you, you be careful when you go to that orphanage.
That woman's got claws and fangs.

Where is she?
I hear the car, sahib.
It's probably not the right car.
It's the Duesenberg.
Miss Farrell took the Duesenberg.
What took you so long?
What's happening around here? Where's Annie?
She's taking her karate lesson with the Asp.
GRACE: Oh, Oliver, don't be nervous.
Nervous? I'm not nervous.
No, you give it to her.
No, no, Oliver, it was your idea.
She likes you better than she likes me.
Oliver, will you pull yourself together.
(FOOTSTEPS APPROACHING)
Oh, Mr. Warbucks, want to see what the Asp taught me today?
(GRUNTING)
(SCREAMS)
To the couch, Punjab, if you please.
Oh, gee, I didn't think it would work.
Well, now you know it does, ha.
Oh, it'll be fine.
Punjab.
Thank you.
(SIGHS)
We'll leave you two alone.
Annie, I wanna talk to you about something very serious.
You don't want me anymore, right?
On the contrary, I do.
Good Lord!
Annie, can we have a man-to-man talk?
Sure.
What I'm proposing would involve a long-term, uh, well, agreement.
Actually, maybe you ought to know more about me
before you make up your mind.
Okay.
Let's, uh, let's go for a walk.
Okay.
I was born in Liverpool in a railroad switch-house.
My younger brother died of pneumonia
because we didn't have money for medicine.
Well, I decided then and there that one day I would be rich,
very, very rich.
Good idea.
In those days, America was the land of opportunity.
I signed on a ship as cabin boy when I was 12.
By the time I was 21, I'd made my first million.
In the next 10 years, I turned that into 100 million.
Hmm.
In those days, that was a lot of money.
I was ruthless, hurt a lot of people.
Making money was all I ever gave a damn about, up to now.
Let's go inside.
Okay.
It's occurred to me that no matter how many houses I have,
how many Rembrandts, how many Duesenbergs,
that unless I have someone to share it with,
well, I might as well be back in Liverpool, broke.
Annie, do you understand what I'm trying to say?
Good.
Kind of.
Kind of?
I guess not.
Damn!
Oh, excuse me.
You've given me so much already, Mr. Warbucks.
I got the papers signed today. It's official.
What is?
It's so pretty, but...
No.
It's a really swell locket, Mr. Warbucks.
But if it's all the same to you, I'll keep my old one.
It isn't all the same to me. Your old one's broken.
This one's engraved. You didn't even look at it.
"To Annie, with love, from Daddy Warbucks."
Mr. Warbucks, when my folks left me at the orphanage
10 years ago, they left a note
saying that they'd come back to get me as soon as they could.
And they kept the other half of this old locket
so I'd know them when they came.
I'm gonna find them someday, Mr. Warbucks.
I'm gonna have a regular mother and father,
like a regular kid. I am.
I don't mean to hurt your feelings.
You've been nicer to me than anybody in the whole wide world,
but I've been dreaming of my folks
for as long as I can remember,
and I just got to find them.
And I'll help you.
Grace, get me J. Edgar on the phone!
Drake, get me the chief of police!
Asp, get me Walter Winchell!
Punjab!
Get me William Randolph Hearst!
And Saunders,
get me a drink.
Six, seven, eight, you're on.

Tonight, as a special heart-tugging treat

I'd like to introduce a little orphan.
A little orphan named Annie.

Who's that who just walked into our Red Network studios?
Bert Healy?
Well, Wacky, it's none other than the Wall Street tycoon, Oliver Warbucks!
(APPLAUSE)
"Thank you, Bert Healy. It's swell..."
Swell? Do I say...
"Swell to be on the Iodent Hour."
I understand you're conducting a coast-to-coast search for Annie's parents.
Yeah, I told you that before we went on the air...
Oh, yes! "Bert Healy.
"I am now conducting a coast-to-coast

"Furthermore, tonight I am offering a cash reward

Annie! Annie, it's your mama!
Annie, here I come! Annie, darling!
We've got to get her out of here, Mr. Warbucks.
We can't expose her to this.
Get the autocopter ready.
Wow!
Annie, guess what?
Mr. Warbucks is gonna take you to Washington to see the president!
Oh, boy!
(GRACE LAUGHING)
Marvelous! Aren't Republicans ostentatious?
Franklin, behave.
It's astonishing that he's here at all.
(ROOSEVELT LAUGHING)
What do you call this thing, Oliver? It looks like great fun.
WARBUCKS: An autocopter.
Don't need an airport, just a back yard.
They say it can land on a dime,
whatever that may be.
I appreciate you coming down. It means a great deal.
Means nothing.
Means only that Annie wanted to meet you.
It's nice to meet you, Mr. President Roosevelt.
It's my pleasure, Annie.
And thank you for bringing the old goat.
We'll make a New Dealer of him yet.
Inconceivable.
Don't mind him, Oliver.
Come along, Annie.
My Uncle Theodore, Teddy Roosevelt,
used to teach his children to walk on stilts.
Well, I can't teach you to walk on stilts,
but I can teach you to roll in a chair with wheels.
My own private roller coaster.
The New Deal, in my opinion, is badly planned,
badly organized and badly administered.
You don't think your programs through, Franklin.
You don't think what they're gonna do to the economy in the long run.
People don't eat in the long run.
People can't feed their children.
The lucky ones end up in orphanages.
ELEANOR: The older ones are abandoned to steal, to starve.
The business of this country is business. You have to organize...
Take them off the dole and put them to work.
That is precisely what I intend to do.
In the National Parks, building camps,
clearing trails,
fighting fires, planting trees.
Hold it! Hold it!
I want to feed them, and house them,
and pay them. Not much,
but enough to send home to their parents,
so they can hold their heads up again,
and be proud to be Americans.
That's a swell idea.
It isn't a swell idea, Annie.
It's mistaken foolishness!
Big-hearted and empty-headed!
Which parks, which children?
What will it cost?
Who's gonna organize it? Who's gonna run it?
I was hoping you would.
Me?
And Annie.
Leaping lizards!
Out of the question!
How could I help?
WARBUCKS: Wait a minute!
You could help us recruit the young people.
Now, hold everything!
Many of them have given up hope, Annie.
They think their government doesn't care whether they live or die.
With your help, we could convince them that with a little extra effort...
I want to say something.
There's this song I used to sing
in the orphanage when I'd get sad.
It always cheered me up.

Excuse me, are you the lady who runs this establishment?
Unfortunately.

We were starving.
There was a job managing a hotel in Maine,
but only if we had no children.
Wrap it up, I'm listening to Helen Trent.
We never meant to leave our little Annie.
Annie?
Now, we have a hardware store in New Jersey.
We could take care of her.
We've always loved her.
You're Annie's parents?
Our place isn't fancy, but it's home.
We live over the store.
There's a yard out back.
We have chickens.

I see.
What's in it for me?
Money!
A three-way split of the 50 thou.
I want half.
Half.
All right, half.
All right!
25 grand for me and Lil, 25 grand for you.
Hey!
Why don't we wait and see what she's got, huh?
See if it's worth 25 grand.
(SCREAMS)
You want details?
I got details.
I got specifics on every kid in this dump.
It's just a question of finding the right box!
(SCOFFS)
Annie wears a locket around her neck.
It's a broken locket.
She says her parents saved the other half
to someday come and claim her with.
Well, years ago...
Years and years ago,
her parents were killed in a fire.
And the cops brought me all their junk.
Well, my darling baby brother,
if Annie's parents can claim her with that locket,
so can we!
LILY: 50,000 smackers!

Let's go, you brats!
Don't! Don't!
Come on!
LILY: Shut up!
Get in that closet!
Behave yourself!
Get in there!
(GIRLS SCREAMING)
Go in there!
Whose rotten idea was this?
(GIRLS CRYING)
Christ!
(SANDY BARKING)
Are they here? Did they bring me a brother and sister?
Buddha says, man who counts his chickens before they hatch
gets a scrambled egg.
What?
Have my parents come for me?
We haven't found them, Annie.
I interviewed 865 couples.
None of them knew about the locket.
I never realized how many dishonest people there are in New York.
I guess they're dead.
I guess I've known that deep down for a long time.
I'm not giving up. Don't you give up.
I didn't want to be just another orphan, Mr. Warbucks.
I wanted to believe I was special.
You are special.
Never stop believing that.
We're trapped in here!
Shh!
Annie's never gonna get saved.
Oh, my goodness. Oh, my goodness.
Poor Annie.
We'll never get out of here, now.
I've got an idea.
What?
Great. Good idea.
Don't drop it.
Come on. We can do it.
All right. Now lean it over.
Shh!
MOLLY: She'll be so mad if she catches us.
GIRL 1: I'm not so sure I want to do this.
GIRL 2: We're going to be in so much trouble anyway.
Duffy, hand me something.
Oh, give her something to hit with.
(GIRLS GIGGLING)
There's a space up here.
TESSIE: Careful.
Oh, my goodness! Oh, my goodness!
Somebody's gonna have to help me get up.
Ow! Get off my hand!
I'm trying not to push!
We're out.
DUFFY: Give me your hand.
PEPPER: It's a long way down.
You sure you want to go through with it?
Wish me luck.
Good luck.
Careful. Don't slip.
I'm trying.
(GIRLS CHATTERING)
We were starving, ma'am. We needed the job.
That's why we left our little girl.
Wrapped in a newspaper.
On the steps of the Hudson Street Orphanage.
What's this?
GRACE: Mr. Warbucks, this is Ralph and Shirley Mudge
from Hoboken, New Jersey.
Annie!
Oh!
Oh, Ralph, look.
She still has the locket.
We finally found you.
I suppose you heard about the reward on the radio?
Reward?
We don't have a radio.
Paper?
What paper?
How did you know Annie was here?
That kind lady at the orphanage told us.
I have her birth certificate right here.
I've kept it close to my heart all of these years.
"Anne Marie Mudge.
"October the 18th, 1922."
I'll go pack.
Want me to help, baby?
No, thanks.
Mom.
We've got to find her.
Come on!
A certified check!
Oh, sir, we're just so thrilled to have found Annie.
We don't need any money.
I'll take it back.
Of course we are poor people.
It would help us a lot.
We could buy her milk,
a warm blanket...
Put it in your pocket.
Mrs. Mudge.
Come on, you guys.
Oh, my goodness! Oh, my goodness!
We're never gonna make it.
We found Fifth Avenue!
Number one, Fifth Avenue!
We got to go to 987.
(ALL GROANING)
Come on, Molly, get on my back.
Come on, you guys, help!
Do you think the stores would take all this back?
All your new clothes?
Well, I guess so, Annie, but don't you want to keep them?
My new folks, they're poor.
All these clothes are gonna make them feel bad.
Could you maybe take them back to the orphanage
and give them to my friends?
Certainly.
This'll look so cute on Molly.
And this'll look good on Duffy.

(TIRES SQUEALING)
Did you get it? Did you get it?
Let me see it.
You know, I think maybe I'd better hold it for safekeeping.
Over my dead body.
That's the brightest thing I've ever heard you say.
ROOSTER: Ladies, ladies.
Help! Mr. Warbucks, help!
Get on the road!
GIRL 1: We'll never find the house.
GIRL 2: I wish I'd been outside New York City before.
(SQUEALING EXCITEDLY)
When I get my half of it...
(SANDY BARKING)
I say we go back.
We can't!
We've been walking for 100 years!
We're never going to get there.
But we have to.
Let's take a vote.
All in favor of calling it quits.
Ah-ha!
Oh, I'm gonna get me one of those little gold lam numbers.
If they sell them in Atlantic City.
We ain't stopping till we hit Atlantic City!
(WHOOPING)
Boo.
Help, Mr. Warbucks! It's Miss Hannigan!
Shut up, kid.
Look! There's Sandy!
(CLAMORING)
(MUFFLED) Mr. Warbucks is gonna be furious!
Come here, Sandy!
Come here!
Come on! Let's go!
Come on, you guys! Hurry it up!
Hurry! Hurry!
I can't run anymore.
(SANDY BARKING)
(SANDY WHIMPERS)
(BARKS)
Hurry!
(SANDY BARKING)
(GIRLS CLAMORING)
All right, now. Quiet down, girls.
You want to see Mr. Warbucks?
All right. Come on. Come on.
GIRLS: Mr. Warbucks!
Oh, my goodness!
(CLAMORING)
(SHOUTING) What now?
Sir...
I think he's a highness.
Your Highness...
We're friends of Annie's.
PEPPER: Oh, no!
Her parents came and took her away.
But they wasn't her real parents, mister.
They was bad people.
Leaping lizards!
(PHONE RINGING)
You take the autocopter, I'll take the car.
Edgar, J. Edgar, Warbucks here.
Yeah, orphan Annie has been kidnapped.
I want every G-man east of the Mississippi on this case in the next 20 minutes.
MAN: Where's the fire, fellas?
(TIRES SCREECHING)
(SIRENS BLARING)
Sahib, sahib.
The truck is on Canal Street, heading east.
East on Canal Street. Well done, Punjab.
Don't lose track of them now.
(SIRENS BLARING)
Excuse me, mister.
Can we stop a second?
I got to go.
I really got to, Miss Hannigan.
(HORN HONKING)
I mean it, lady. You're asking for it.
When you got to go, you got to go.
(BOAT HORN HONKING)
Make it fast.
(SCREAMS)
Rooster, grab her! She got the check!
Cut her off at the bridge!
God damn it!
ROOSTER: Come back here, you *** kid!
(ENGINE REVVING)
No!
No!
I'll kill you.
I'll kill you, you little brat! I'll kill you!
Wring her neck, Rooster!
He's really gonna kill her.
MISS HANNIGAN: Rooster!
Rooster, stop!
Rooster, she's a baby!
ROOSTER: Come back here!
(BRIDGE BELLS RINGING)
Rooster!
I'm gonna kill her!
No, I'm not gonna let you!
She may be a mean, rotten little orphan,
but I'm not gonna let you kill her!
ROOSTER: Let go of me, you old ***!
MISS HANNIGAN: Stop it!
Just stop it!
(SIRENS BLARING)
(SIRENS BLARING)
(TIRES SCREECHING)
(CAR HORNS HONKING)
Sahib, sahib.
They're at the B&O bridge.
They're on the bridge. Turn right.
I know. I know.
(AUTOCOPTER WHIRRING)
POLICEMAN 1: Hold it up over here.
POLICEMAN 2: Get in there, let's go.
Help, somebody! Help! Please help!
Help, somebody! Help!
Leave me alone!
Please, help!
Please, help!

ANNIE: Somebody help me!
Somebody help me!
FIREMAN: Come on, over here!
Hurry it up there. Bring it in, guys!

Help! Help!
Have we got two nets? No? Okay, well, we'll make do.
FIREMAN: Hurry up! You're too slow. Let's go.
Please!
Punjab! Help me!
Help me, Punjab! Help!
Punjab, help!
(ANNIE CRYING)
To pull you to safety I need both hands.
You must hold on.
I can't.
Buddha says a child without courage
is like a night without stars. Come!
(LAUGHING)
FIREMAN: That's it. Back it in here.
(GRUNTS)
(ROOSTER SCREAMING)
Rooster, you reprobate!
Okay, let's clear the area over here!
Perfect! Perfect! That's it, bring them up here.
