Moondance (1994) - full transcript

- Last one home has to cook.
- No chance.

[LAUGHS]

Is that the best
you can do?

[BARKING]

Come on.

[BARKING]

[GASPS]

[LAUGHING]
Ishka!

- Our lunch.
- Leave it.

Ishka.

[BARKING]



[BARKING]

[BARKING]

[BARKING]

What's that
supposed to be?

Eat it.

- It was your fault.
- Eeew. Dogfish.

[ISHKA GROWLING]

- Ishka.
- [BARKS]

Do ya think we could
race her?

I can't see any dog gettin'
the better of her, can you?

If we won loads of races, we'd buy
a boat and sail to Africa to see Mum.

I bet they've never seen
a greyhound in Africa before.

After Africa,
we could go to...

Uzbekistan.



We'd race her all over the world,
and we'd win bags of money.

It'd be brilliant,
wouldn't it?

If she was a champion, you'd realize
what we have in our hands.

Patrick?

What? What do we have
in our hands then?

A hot potato.

[SHOUTING]

[LAUGHING]

Faster! Faster!

[SHOUTING]

PATRICK:
Oh, my God. Father McGrath.

- Hello, Father McGrath.
- Ah, Patrick.

- Now let me see.
- [ISHKA GROWLING]

- Your face is familiar, but...
- [BARKING]

Dominic.

Holy Moses.
I hardly recognized ya.

It's been so long since you graced us
with your presence at school.

I'm sorry Dominic hasn't been
in school very much recently.

I rest you don't bother your head
about it. It's only an education
he's missing...

and only the rest of his life
he'll make a bollocks of.

- [BELL TOLLING]
- Excuse me Latin.

Actually, Aunt Dorothy has decided
I'm being wasted at National School.

She enrolled me as a boarder
in St.Jude's.

Has she now?

Saint Jude patron saint
of hopeless cases.

How appropriate.

Well, all I can say is good luck
to your new teachers.

DOMINIC:
It's you who needs luck, preacher.

Let him go, brother,
this time.

Okay, where were we?

[CHUCKLES]

- [ISHKA HOWLING]
- In trouble.

- ["GUNSHOTS'"]
- [IMITATING GUNS BLASTING]

["HORSE NEIGHING"]

["RIFLE BLASTS"]

["GUNSHOTS" CONTINUE]

["HORSE NEIGHS"]

["GUNSHOTS" CONTINUE]

[PANTING]
You call that giving cover?

You call that running?

- I got a great idea
of where we should go next.
- I don't wanna hear it.

- You'll change your mind when I tell ya.
- Shut up.

- Okay.
- No more ideas. I never wanna
hear any more ideas again.

- Okay.
- All right.

Ireland.
Let's go to Ireland.

I thought deep down
you really wanted to hear it.

- They speak English there.
- They do?

- And they got horses and beaches.
- No swimming.

And banks, lots of banks.

I'll think about it.

You take the ones
on the right.

I'll take the ones
on the left.

Hey, wait a second. You didn't see
Preacher McGrath out there, did you?

- Preacher McGrath, no.
- Good.

For a moment there
I thought we were in trouble.

- ["GUNSHOTS"]
- ["MAN SHOUTING"]

Wouldn't it be brilliant if people
stopped livin' in houses altogether?

[CHUCKLES]
Absolutely.

[LAUGHS]

[CHUCKLES]

[DISGUSTED SIGH]
What's that ridiculous sign?

"No entry."

Come on.
We'll try the side door.

[ISHKA BARKING]

Of course a difficult choice
for their mother:

to look after her sons or live
with an obscure tribe in Africa.

Mind you, the boys appear
to be living like savages.

Katherine will soon be able to write
a book about them. Where are they?

Patrick? Dominic?

[LOUD BREATHS
BLOWING OUT OF TUBE]

- [GASPS]
- [LAUGHING]

[LAUGHING CONTINUES]

Patrick? Dominic?

- [BARKING]
- Oh, God.

Aunt Dracula.
What's she doin' out?

- The sun hasn't gone down yet.
- Better get some garlic.

Father McGrath and I
had a little chat.

I've been in touch
with St.Joseph's.

Excellent record...
with certain children.

Really?

Look, he'd meet boys
of his own age.

He can always come home
at weekends.

He wouldn't be happy
carted off to some school.

- You tried that before
and look what happened.
- Ah, there you are.

Patrick, this is Anya. She's helping me
with the horses for the summer.

[RUMBLING, BANGING]

How nice to see you.

How have you been?

Patrick.

It's very bright in here. Don't you
think it's bright, Aunt Dorothy?

Should I, uh...
draw the curtain?

- Dominic.
- Yes, Patrick?

Why don't you show
Anya the garden.

Delighted.

- Have you heard from your mother?
- She wrote a few weeks ago.

She said to send you
her love.

Did she think
to send money?

Uh, we're all right
for money.

[CHUCKLES]
Your car?

- Come on. I want to
introduce you to Ishka.
- [BARKING]

- What's that?
- Lobster pods.

Hello, Ishka.

I'm Anya.

Ishka's a beautiful name.

Means " water" in Irish.

Mom rescued her from the river
when she was just a pup.

Ishka.

We're going to
race her soon.

This is my special pet.

Oh. Nice.

Are you going to
race her too?

But this is exactly
what I saw last time.

He's a bit behind,
but I know he can catch up.

[DOMINIC, ANYA LAUGHING]

It's all right.
You've nothing to hide.

But it's none
of her business!

Your education
is my business!

Your brother and I have decided
it's time you went to boarding school.

I haven't said any such thing.
That's no answer.

- I promise I'll start
doin' lessons with him.
- For heaven's sake!

You left school at his age. How could
you possibly teach him anything?

I know it's none of my business, but I
could come and give Dominic lessons.

That's a brilliant idea.

It's very kind of you, Anya,
but I don't...

But it would be good for me also.
I need to practice my English.

As long as Dominic
doesn't mind teaching me.

Anya!

You're late.
I've waited for hours.

[CHUCKLES]
Hours?

Well, it felt like hours.

I still have to help with the horses.
I don't think your aunt...

- Don't say her name.
Not in front of the poor animal.
- [LAUGHS]

Can I get up?

Mom used to ride out here
every morning.

- Is she really living with
a tribe in Africa?
- Yeah.

She was the first white person
they ever saw.

She's gonna write a book and become
famous when she gets back.

Come on!

[LOUD BUZZING]

You said you liked
mashed potatoes.

[DRILL WINDING DOWN]

How's school?

I think Dominic's
enjoying it.

No, Anya, I can't.

You have no money:
I have. It's simple.

What if I take
something for it?

What?

I'll think of something.

Come on. What year?

I told you the answer
five minutes ago.

History is useless.

Who cares when some king defeated
some other king in some field...

for some stupid reason
or other?

So far you refuse to do
math, geography...

- Boring.
- and now history.

It's stupid.
What does it all matter?

Dominic,
you're impossible.

- [ISHKA BARKING]
- Anya, I know.

[FOOTSTEPS APPROACHING]

[PANTING]

- Well, where'd you get it?
- Off Killmore.

[PANTING CONTINUES]
Geez, he was fast.

But Ishka kept with him all the way.
You should have seen her.

Poor hare.

Poor dead hare.

Ink by itself.

This, though dead...

See ya tomorrow.

Come on.

Look.

[CHUCKLES]

Poor lobsters. You must
be bringing us luck, Anya.

Can you show me
how to row?

Sure.

[GIGGLES]

Man overboard!

I can't swim!

ANYA:
Neither can we.

[THUNDER RUMBLING]

PATRICK:
Ah, no. The princess of darkness.

DOMINIC: I bet she'll be
really, really pleased to see us.

Anya, where have you been?
You said you'd be back for dinner.

Look. We got you
a lobster.

For God's sake! Well, put it
in the boat and get into the car.

- Hurry up!
- No, I want to ride back.

Don't be ridiculous.
Dominic!

- It's too dark now.
- I'll race ya. [CLICKS TONGUE]

Dominic!

- [TIRES SCREECHING]
- Watch it!

Ya-a-a-a!

You're lucky you didn't
break your bloody neck.

No doubt your mother would applaud
such recklessness, but I don't.

Get your things.
We're going.

I think I will stay.

[SIGHS]

Oh, I see.

You two didn't waste any time.

- Just typical!
- It's not what you're thinkin'.

I don't want to hear
another word.

- Get into the car.
- I'm not going back. I want to stay.

[STIFLED CHUCKLE]

[ENGINE STARTS]

You did it, Anya!
You stood up to Aunt Dracula!

[ANYA LAUGHING]

You're like an angel
of mist.

[ALL LAUGHING, WHOOPING]

ANYA:
Faster! Faster!

[ALL SHOUTING]

[ISHKA BARKING]

ANYA:
Speed up! Speed up!

So how's that one
fit you then, Murty, huh?

Once again, John Joe,
I'd never settle in this yoke.

Take your time, Murty.
Take your time.

You'll be long enough dead.
[CHUCKLES]

[BELL ON DOOR JINGLES]

How are ya, John Joe?
I need the order made up.

Uh-huh. Don't go away.

[ANYA GIGGLING]

There ya go.

A guest over at Roslare, huh?

Must be a great attraction for you young
fellas to have a woman about the place.

Does you not all get
bored in the evenings?

How do you keep yourselves
occupied at all?

Can't think for the life of me...

what you get up to.

I thought
in a place like this...

most people spent
the whole night fucking.

[GASPS]

What are we going
to do for money?

I'll think of something.

We'll think of something.

[GRASSHOPPER CHIRPING]

[CHIRPING CONTINUES]

Would you...

[EXHALES]

If I...

What?

Oh, no.

[CHUCKLES]
Say it.

Mm-hmm.

I just wanna say...

Hey!

Wait for me!

At the funeral...

Dominic kept singing
this nursery rhyme over and over.

Nobody could stop him.

When I asked him why...

he just said that
Dad was tellin' him to.

Even now he still believes
he saw Dad here.

He was only six.

Must've been terrible for you
and your mother, being left alone.

She just took off
and left us.

I had to leave school
to look after Dominic.

She just comes back when it suits her.
Upsets everything...

and then leaves.

So why do we make
a bonfire?

PATRICK:
Summer Solstice.

The Church calls it
St.John's Day...

to try and pretend
we're not all pagans.

But we are.

- ♪♪ [IRISH]

[GIGGLES]

[GIGGLING CONTINUES]

- Promise me you won't run away.
- Promise.

[ALL LAUGHING]

[DOOR OPENING]

[WHIMPERING]

[MUTTERING]

Mom!

Mom, you're back!

[SIGHS]

And not a moment
too soon.

Past noon and not a child
in the house washed. Hello, Patrick.

Hello.

They've just got hangovers.

We had a party last night.

I got drunk too.

This is Anya.

She's livin' with us.

Livin' with you?

[LAUGHS] I see. You thought
because us and Anya in bed...

you thought we were... no...

And then Anya looked at her and said,
"I think I will stay here."

[CHUCKLING]

Anyone who can stand up
to Aunt Dracula is all right with me.

How long are you to stay this time?
A few days?

- Can you stay long?
- Yes, I can.

I'm back for good.

Hey, Anya!

[CHUCKLES]

A little bit of Africa
in the west of Ireland.

What's wrong, Patrick?

I just wished she hadn't
come along, that's all.

[SIGHS] You know,
just when things were goin' so good.

Your mother has nothing
to do with us.

just because I like her
doesn't change how I feel for you.

You don't know her.
She'll mess up everything.

I love you, Patrick.

You have to leave soon,
don't you?

I'm supposed to start
the university.

Marry me, Anya.

- What?
- I'm serious.

[ANYA LAUGHING]

- What's wrong with
the way things are now?
- Well, nothing.

It's just that gettin' married
seems the right thing to do.

You do realize she'll be my sister.
Next thing you'll be making me
a bloody uncle.

- Havin' kids.
- Slow down. Give us a chance.

Listen, Dominic,
this doesn't change anything.

I'll think about it.

How long?

[BIRDS SQUAWKING]

I made you
a wedding present.

This is your bridal chamber.

Dominic, you're hurting me.
Stop it!

You can't treat me like a kid!
You can't!

I'll tell you one thing, Anya.

You'll be my bride too.

[DOOR OPENS]

[CLOSES]

I love Patrick.

I don't want to hurt him.

But why do we have to
rush into this?

Oh, God, I feel sick,
and I can't find my other stocking.

I'm going to run away.

Running away isn't
the answer, believe me.

You end up having to face
the very thing you fled from.

[SIGHS]
Calm down. Calm down.

Don't be ridiculous. How can I be calm?
I'm about to be married.

Thanks.

- ANYA: Patrick?
- Anya.

- I have something to tell you.
- Where the hell have you been?

- Nowhere.
- Nowhere? How could you just...

Please!

Anya, what is it?

I can't do it.
I can't marry you.

What?

What do ya mean?

I just need
a little more time.

I don't understand.
Why do you feel like this now?

What's happened?

- It's you, isn't it?
What's she been saying?
- Nothing.

You couldn't keep
out of it, could ya?

I should've bloody known
you'd try and come between us,
just like with me and Dominic!

- It really isn't like that.
- It's not her fault.
Please, listen to me!

- Patrick!
- What is it? Do you get pleasure
wandering in and out of our lives...

like some hurricane
destroying everything in sight?

I was wrong to leave, but you
can't blame me for coming back.

Yes, I can! We were fine without you!
Just go away and leave us alone!

- Let's not do this...
- Ah, shut up!

[DOOR SLAMS]

Patrick, wait.

God.

Try to understand.

I'm sorry, Patrick.

[CRYING]

We saw her
at the same time.

I just couldn't stop Ishka.

And when the hare was dead,
all that beauty died too.

It was the day
they were to be married.

I keep thinkin'...

if I hadn't caught it...

then maybe they would have.

It's not your fault.

You know Patrick
isn't going to stay here.

He wants to move to Dublin.

And you want to go
with him, don't you?

I think Patrick
would be hurt if you stayed.

And anyway...

you'd miss each other
too much.

If I did go,
would you be all right?

You'd have to promise to visit me
whenever I got too lonely.

Of course I would.

I love you, Dominic.

I really do.

I won't go.

PATRICK:
Do we know what the flat's like?

- DOMINIC: It's free:
that's the important thing.
- God bless Rose's boyfriend.

- DOMINIC: What's his name?
- ANYA: Pops called him Murphy.

- [HORN HONKING]
- PATRICK: We'll call him Murphy then.

- ANYA: Hello! Rose!
- [ISHKA BARKING]

Rose!

[GIGGLING]

- [ROSE SHOUTING]
- [SHOUTING]

[BOTH LAUGHING]

- You look great!
What did you do with your hair?
- Hello, boys.

Welcome to Dublin:
the city of saints and sinners.

Murphy's been at the game
a long time now.

And it's his opinion that what
you've got here is some class of a dog.

[DOGS BARKING]

- It's not that bad.
- [WHIMPERING]

Believe it or not,
all the dogs love it here.

[WHIMPERING CONTINUES]

[BARKING CONTINUES]

He's never been
away from us before.

Greyhounds love
racin' one another.

It's in their blood.

And Murph,
he's rapid with 'em.

- [WHIMPERING]
- Honest.

We'll give her a trial
in a couple of days, okay?

[WHIMPERS]

It's right above the pub,
so you never need go short of a drink.

ROSE:
Come on, Dominic. You're gonna love it.

Needs a little bit
of tidyin' up, ya know.

- Well, what do you think of the place?
- It's perfect!

We were only too glad
to offer you the position...

on the recommendation
of Mr. Murphy.

- A marvelous man.
- Marvelous man.

Yeah, he is.

I must try and think of a way
of repayin' him... for settin' me up.

We've had all the burning lights
of Christianity through our door.

Oh, they've all graced us.
Billy Graham.

- Mother Teresa.
- His Holiness.

The Reverend Jackson.

[DISGUSTED SIGH]

Yes, uh, you'll meet them
all here, Patrick.

It's a lovely occupation.

And, of course,
the marvelous thing is...

it's guaranteed.

Not many jobs can boast that now,
can they, Mr. Dunbar?

They cannot.
As you've said before, Mr. Dunwoody...

the day religion goes out of business
is the day hell freezes over.

Marvelous.

Marvelous.

[WOLF WHISTLE]

I suppose a ride
would be out of the question?

[CHUCKLES]
Ya never know, Murphy.

[GIGGLING]

Can I come up
for a while, love?

[CHUCKLES]

- Thanks very bleedin' much.
- [ANYA LAUGHING]

Is that how
they ride in Germany?

So, now hold me.

Mmm.

MURPHY:
Okay, boys.

Come on, Ishka. I'm countin' on ya
so I can retire early.

Ready, set...

go!

- Get back on your heelers!
- ANYA: Ishka!

[ALL CHEERING, SHOUTING]

Come on!
Come on, Ishka!

Come on! Come on,
you beautiful baby!

Come on!

Come on!

PATRICK: Damn it.
I thought Ishka had her beat.

She nearly did it, and she was me vest
dog. Ishka's a prospect, definitely.

- You really think so?
- It's just a matter of trainin'.

- Cheer up. It's her first trial.
- I wanted her to win, Chalk.

[ROSE SHOUTING]
We'll be rich!

[CHEERING]

Maybe Ishka will let you
retire early.

Nobody retires
from Dunbar and Dunwoody.

- They merely ascend to a higher plain.
- Heaven?

No, upstairs to " clerical outfit."

Hey! Where are ya goin'?

- CHALKY: Oi!
- Chalky.

What do you have to walk
around this cape for, huh?

Even the girls don't come down here.
Come on. Get in.

We told you never to walk home
this way, didn't we?

Bleedin' conscience.

[CAR BACKFIRES]

Poxy bleedin' car.

CHALKY:
There she is, Boswell:

my escape
from this poxy place.

Your family know
you're goin'?

They couldn't
give a bollocks.

Me dad will only miss me now
when he's tryin' to get some money
out of me for drink.

It's not like you,
with Patrick and Anya.

Imagine. Sailin'
to South America.

Bollocks to that.
Let's get pissed.

- Take it easy.
- [CHUCKLES]

You'll wake Anya.

Reflexes are gone. It's all
these late nights you're keepin'.

You just rest now
while I go earn us a livin'.

[GROANS]

Has Patrick gone to work?

Hours ago.

I brought you some tea.

What are you
gonna do today?

Cut your hair.

It's funny, but it's beginning to feel
like when you were teaching me...

back in Roslare.

Do you like it?

Now you must come back
to see us next week.

We have a lovely new
Saint Francis coming in.

- Ah!
- Yes, in several sizes.

So, with the 2,000 candles,
ten statues and 21 paintings...

- the total comes to £4,600.
- Fine.

Now, send the bill to The Little
Daughters of the Poor, Dock A.
Good Lad. Come on. Come on.

We haven't much time.
That's grand, grand, grand.

[MUTTERS]
Uh-uh. I missed...

Good girl, now.
Thank you very much.

- God bless, now. Bye.
- God bless.

Good-bye, Sister.

Thank goodness. I thought they'd
never go. I have a souffle in the oven.

[GIGGLING]

Catch it!

[BARKING]

- Hey, Patrick. Taking her for a run?
- Yeah.

Race is comin' up.
Haven't seen Dominic, have you?

- I was supposed to meet him here.
- No.

He hasn't been around
for a while now.

You and Dominic seem to have a great
time when I'm out workin' all day.

So now we're on our own.

You might show me a little interest.
Remember me?

- Patrick.
- You've had too much to drink.

I haven't had enough.

- MAN: Take it easy.
- MURPHY: Break it up.

- Don't tell me how to take it.
- MURPHY: Do ya hear me?

I'll knock both
your fuckin' heads together.

[DOOR OPENING, CLOSING]

Don't go.

- Get out of my way.
- No.

[GASPS]

Anya, Anya.

Anya, please.
I can't.

Yes, you can.

What about Patrick?

You said I'd be your bride too.
Love me.

Love me.

[SIGHING]

I can't.

Dominic?

Dominic!

Where are you going?

- Nowhere.
- What's that supposed to mean?

- Nothin'.
- It's Chalky's leavin' do tonight.

- So?
- So be there.

And don't be late.

I'm talkin' to you.

Who do you think you are
tellin' me what to do?

- You're not my father.
- No, I'm not, thank Christ.

It's a bloody shame it's Chalky
leavin' next week, not you.

Before we start, I'd just
like to say a few words...

about our guest
of honor, Chalky.

You know, things are just not
gonna be the same around here
without you, Chalky.

I've never had anybody before
who could handle the dogs so...

so elegantly.
[CHUCKLES]

Run, ya bollocky horse!
[CHUCKLES]

- You've taught me all
I bleedin' know, Murph.
- Ta-da!

Here's hopin'
you find a port in every gale.

[APPLAUDING]

- Thanks.
- Come on. Come on.

Thanks a lot.

I'll never forget it.

Enough of this crap.
Let's eat.

[MURPHY LAUGHING]

MURPHY: I've decided to put
a third of tonight's takin's on Ishka.

- ROSE: You must have great faith.
- MURPHY: Faith?

Shit, doesn't the Pope call me
up in the middle of the night.

[IMITATING POPE]
Murphy, I'm confused.

How come an ugly bastard like you has
such a beautiful girlfriend like Rose?

And I say,
"Simple, your holiness.

I've balls like a stallion
and a neck like a jockey's bollocks."

When do you set sail?

Two days after the race.

- Do you not like the lobster?
- No, it's lovely.

Great.

Murph went to a lot of trouble cookin'
this. The least you can do is eat.

- Sorry, I have to go.
- You're not goin'.
What about the lobster?

- I'll take it, all right?
- The lobster stays.

- Honestly, lads, that's...
- And the claw. The claw stays.

- The lobster doesn't mean
that much to me.
- And the bib! The bib stays!

There!
Now you have everything!

CHALKY:
Sail her back to bleedin' Germany.

You can't go on
like this.

It's crazy.

- Chalky.
- What?

You think there's any way
I could get a job on board?

Look, I doubt it...

but I'll ask, all right?

CHALKY: You know, if Ishka gets
out of the traps cleanly tomorrow...

I reckon she'll win.

[CROWD MURMURING]

MURPHY:
Gangway. Make room for the drink.

MURPHY:
To Ishka. Here's to Ishka.

So, what did he say?

You're too young.

It's a big risk.

If Skipper gets caught with you
on board, fuck goes his license.

- How much does he want?
- Five hundred.

Here.

Put it on Ishka.

If she wins,
you'll have enough.

Thanks.

[CROWD MURMURING]

[BELL RINGING]

- Come on. There you go.
- [WHINING]

[BELL RINGING]

[CROWD CHATTERING]

[CROWD CHEERING]

Come on, Ishka!

- Come on.
- ANYA: Ishka, Come on!

PATRICK:
Come on, Ishka. Come on!

[ALL SHOUTING]
Come on! Come on!

- I'm goin' away, Anya.
- What?

What do you mean?

With Chalky...
on the Boswell.

It's all arranged. I'll have
a bunk below deck with Chalky.

I'll be gone for about...

What about me?

Don't you love me?

Yes.

Then why go?

Because I have to.

[THUNDERCLAP]

What would my dad
say to me if he was here?

He'd say he was proud of you
for thinking of your brother
before yourself...

because he's the one
who still hurts the most.

He'd tell you to try and make it up
with Patrick, if you can, before you go.

And he'd say,
"Come back to us soon...

my beautiful, grown-up son."

Where's Dominic?

I don't know.

Are you in love
with him?

You've got to stop!

Stop?

Like a tap
you can turn on and off?

- Is that what love is?
- No.

Then what?

It's needin' someone...

wantin' them
to be there always.

Doing anything
to avoid losing them.

- Letting them go if they want to?
- What do you mean?

I'm going back
to Germany.

I've booked my flight.

Does he love you?

- Yes.
- Oh, Christ.

But he loves you more.

That's why he's going away.

What?

He's going with Chalky.

Why hasn't he told me?

Patrick!

Patrick!

Get your fucking hands off me!
She's gone.

Don't you understand?

Anya's gone,
and it's your fault!

Get out the way!

I'm sorry I hit you.

Doesn't matter.

Where have you been?

To see Mom.

I suppose
you told her everything.

- Yeah.
- What did she say?
She tell you not to go?

No. She understood.

She loves us.

You, maybe.

- Both of us.
- Then why did she leave us?

You should ask her that.

I went to Dad's grave.

There were
fresh flowers on it.

She put them there.

- She hasn't been to his grave
since the funeral.
- She has now.

She's different.

She's happy.

And you think that's
because she went away?

Yeah.

Is that why
you want to go?

Somethin' like that.

Who the hell runs away
to sea these days?

I mean, where is
this ship goin' anyway?

Lisbon.
Casablanca.

We've never been
apart before.

No.

I've... I've hurt you so much.

I've nearly broken
your nose.

Will you go see Mom?

Will you send us
a postcard from Casablanca?

- Yeah.
- Will you come back?

Yeah.

Then it's a deal.

Christ. For a moment there,
I thought we were in trouble.
