Pearl Harbor 珍珠港（2001） Movie Script

BETTY:

Hide them? On a date with pilots? I'm talking about how you make them show!

SANDRA, another nurse, speaks up.

SANDRA:

Loan 'em to me, I'll make 'em show.

BETTY:

The b*obs or the pilots?

The girls laugh and shove each others' knees; it's a party wherever they go. But Evelyn can't keep her mind on the frivolity. She looks out the window and her thoughts drift away.

BARBARA:

We'll ask Evelyn. Evelyn? Evelyn!

BETTY:

Ooo, she's thinking of her date! Come on, you've been dating a pilot. We want to know what we can expect.

Suddenly all the girlish faces are looking at Evelyn.

EVELYN:

I've been dating one pilot. And only for a few weeks. But I know he's different from all the others.

Sandra throws up her arms and swoons onto her friends.

SANDRA:

True love!...

BETTY:

Morphine, give her morphine!

BARBARA:

Give her an enema.

EVELYN:

But I do have a warning for you. There's one line you all need to know, and you're likely to hear it from any man in a uniform. It goes like this: "Honey, Baby... We never know what's gonna happen, and I may die tomorrow...so, let's live all we can tonight."

A silence among the nurses.

BARBARA:

I tell you. Any one of those arrogant, leather-jacketed, slick-lookin' flyboys tries that line on me...he's gonna get anything he wants.

As the nurses laugh -- EXT. NEW YORK TRAIN STATION - NIGHT Our pilots -- indeed leather-jacketed and handsome -- are waiting on the platform. Among then is Rafe, holding something behind his back, as the train pulls in and shudders to a stop, clouds of steam jetting onto the platform and giving the moment a dream-like haze.

INT./ EXT. TRAIN - NEW YORK TRAIN STATION - NIGHT The nurses start stepping out; both pilots and nurses pretend surprise to see each. At the door of the train, Evelyn whispers to Betty --

EVELYN:

Stick with me, I'll find you somebody good.

Betty spot's Rafe.

BETTY:

I'll take that one.

EVELYN:

He's taken. But come on, I'll introduce you.

They move to Rafe; he crosses the platform to meet them, his eyes holding Evelyn.

RAFE:

Hello, Lieutenant. Good to see you.

EVELYN:

You too, Lieutenant.
