第六感生死缘Meet Joe Black Movie Script

SUSAN:

I'm sorry. But give it to me again. The short version.

PARRISH:

Stay open. Who knows? Lightning could strike. Silence. PARRISH (cont'd) Forgive the lecture --

SUSAN:

I won't. And when I tell Drew about it, he won't either.

PARRISH:

You won't tell him, and even if you did, he'd clock it and punch it into his laptop in order to pull out some key phrases when he gives the Commencement Speech at Wharton.

SUSAN:

You're terrible.

PARRISH:

I know. But I'm the only father you've got. She kisses him on the cheek.

SUSAN:

Thank God.

PARRISH:

He doesn't care. But thanks anyway. EXT. 34TH STREET HELIPAD, NEW YORK CITY - DAY The AStar lands, an attendant, waiting with a luggage cart, rushes to open the door and unload the bags. The passengers, Parrish paired with Quince, Drew with Susan, file off the rooftop through a door which opens into an elevator.INT. ELEVATOR, NEW YORK CITY - DAY Parrish, Susan, Drew and Quince face forward as they ride downwards.

QUINCE:

Hey, this is it, the hour approach- es, I'm getting all excited. So what do you think, is it -- (indicates Drew and Parrish) -- just the 'Executive Committee' or could you guys use me?

DREW:

Quince, m'man, thanks for the offer, but it's all set for just me and Bill. More people might --

PARRISH:

What?

DREW:

I was saying to Quince we won't need --

PARRISH:

Did you just hear something?

DREW:

Why yes, Bill, I was saying to Quince --

PARRISH:

No no, not you.

SUSAN:

Daddy, what's the matter?

PARRISH:

Nothing. I'm sorry. A respectful silence, the elevator continues downwards, suddenly the Voice intrudes again:VOICE (V.O.) '...I want you to levitate. I want you to sing with rapture and dance like a dervish.' Parrish grunts bizarrely, Susan notices and reacts:

SUSAN:

What is it, Daddy --?

PARRISH:

Nothing. Parrish's eyes dart about, confirming no one has heard a thing but him. PARRISH (cont'd) Just talking to myself again. You know me -- The elevator door opens.

PARRISH:

Well, here we are -- Parrish leads the group out. EXT. 34TH STREET, NEW YORK CITY - DAY They exit the building.

SUSAN:

(to Parrish) Are you okay?

PARRISH:

A-Okay. Got my gloves on, my ears pricked. I'm ready for action.

SUSAN:

Well, go get 'em, Pops.

PARRISH:

Yer damn right. Parrish, followed by Drew, steps into a waiting limousine, Quince looks longingly after them. Susan, blowing a kiss goodbye to her father, steps out into the street to hustle a cab. INT. LOBBY, BONTECOU WORLD HEADQUARTERS - DAY
