Diggity's Treasure (2001) - full transcript

[dazzling music]

[soft gentle music]

[gentle majestic music]

[girl]
Harry! Get off the road!

[woman]
Morning, Emma.

Morning, Rachel.

How are you?

I'm fine, thanks.
Are you gonna check on

preparations at the church,
do you have time to--

I believe you have
a letter for me.

Say good morning boy!



Good...

And good morning to you too,
Mr. Slee.

Yes dear as soon as
I've done my rounds.

See you then.

[soft gentle music]

What's the point?

You just don't get it, do you?

She doesn't have a child.
She's not even pregnant!

Sorry...
but when do I get my wish?

Stitches,
are you playing or not?

Put that rat away!

She's not a rat,
Heidi's a guinea pig.

[all]
One, two, three.

[ominous music]



Yes!

Oh Stitches won.

Slee!

Heidi.

Stitches no, forget her.

Watch out, Rupert.

I don't think you're
fast enough gypsy boy.

Please don't hurt her.

No!

[tense music]

Papa, it's Old Slee!

Well, Mr. Slee have the children
been in your garden again?

No Roma,
you give your brats in my garden

too much credit.
It's proper business I have.

This letter is from my
brother and solicitor,

Snitley... He's found
the air to this property.

Someone actually owns it?

IT appears that this
land as well as the main

building was part of
a 500 year lease from

some ancient benefactor.
The lease has expired

and this property
has reverted to the air.

May I inquire as to
who the new owner is?

It's not me Roma if that's your
concern, but when he receives my

proper offer a
deed will be signed

before you can
say street urchin.

It's going to be a long
cold winter, Roma, wherever

you and your little
potato thieves

find to live.
Say good morning boy!

[heart-wrenching music]

[light inquisitive music]

Heidi.

[wind blowing]

[guinea pig squeaks]

[thudding sound]

[tense music]

Well, well we meet again runt.

- I haven't done nothing.
- No but you're a gypsy.

Hey, what's this.

You really should give
him back his coin you know.

Why do you care, you live
with the gypsy brat now?

I live up there.

Oh, so your friend is a church

mouse.
C'mon let's hear you squeak.

That's an old trick.

I've got better things to do.

What about his coin?

He can have it
when he can take it.

Can you teach me that trick?

It's not a trick.

You made Rupert disappear.

Hmm yea...
I hadn't thought of that one.

Oh and let's get into the tower.

Oh!

C'mon Stitches
stop mucking around.

I've lived here for
three years now and I

still don't understand
that horrible man.

Well this probably
means Old Slee

will end up owning everything.

If he has his way.

Why doesn't he have his way?

Well if he does there will be
no place for the Christmas fate.

So are we going to
have to move again?

Your father's always
taken care of us.

Well I bet the new owner is rich
and greedy too. Just like Slee.

I don't care who your
brother is you're fired.

Can't I have one more chance?

Raymond, you were
hired to see to the gardens

and you get this room
for $50 dollars a month.

Now the gardens are
a shambles and you're

three months behind
on your rent again!

I'm on the verge
of some big money!

Raymond,
you're always on the verge. Now

I'm tired of paying
your rent myself.

I'm keeping your severance
check for the utilities.

[soft rock guitar music]

[car horn honks]

[horn honking]

Hi, Otis.

Oh, hey Ray come on in.

How you doing?

There's someone here to see you,
Ray.

Let me introduce
you to Mr. David

Jackson or Thompson,
Davis and Lee.

Oh I was only three months
late Otis, I'm gonna pay that.

Just shut up Ray and listen.

It would appear
Mr. Kane that you are

related ever so
distantly to a sea captain.

The late Captain Emanuel A.
Faro, of

uh Copenwill.
Right, it's in England.

That's right,
England, 4000 miles

away across the deep blue sea.

What does this
have to do with me?

Specifically Mr. Kane,
you are the

only living relative
of Mr. Faro.

He's on your mother's side of

course.
Precisely, and as such you

have a piece of
property to claim

in the village of Copenwill.

What do you mean property?

Well the papers weren't specific
but when you arrive you ought to

contact a Malcolm Slee.
He was the

gentleman that had you located.

Arrive?

Here's your ticket and
passport to a new and exciting

life, Ray. God speed,
God bless and cheerios.

[exclaims]

Oh this is a,
this is a one way ticket.

Ray, I don't think I can
finagle you another job, Face

it, I've run out of people in
town who owe me favors.

But think of what
might lie ahead of

you,
perhaps a home of your very own.

Here Ray...

I couldn't let my
half brother leave

without a going away gift,
now could I?

I take it everybody
over there wears 'em.

Wow... huh!

Thanks, Otis.

How's it look?

You look fine, Ray.

[finger picking
blues guitar music]

Winthrop, now...
I know you have your orders

but... please swing by
the house just for a minute.

I need to see Beth
one more time.

I appreciate that Winthrop.

Uncle Raymond!

Hello darling.

Momma said you were
going away to England.

Well I'm afraid so but I will be
back before you can say firefly.

I have something for you.

I want you to have
this Uncle Raymond.

Oh thank you darling.

Don't worry about her wing,
momma

broke it trying to unlock my

diary last night but she should
still be able to watch over you.

Oh you do love your old
uncle Raymond don't you.

Beth what are you doing
in your Sunday dress?

I got dressed for the
garden party, momma.

No mam,
children and ladies do not mix.

So you say goodbye
to Uncle Ray and turn

right around and put
some play clothes on.

Hey step momma’s right,
I'll see you soon darling.

Bye, Uncle Raymond.

Bye bye.

I've got a feeling
the Uncle Raymond

ain't coming back from England.

God save the queen.

[English patriotic music]

[pilot] Ladies and gentlemen
welcome to Heathrow airport.

Our ground staff will be
happy to help you with your

onward journey whether
it be by plane, train or bus.

[finger picking
country guitar music]

[somber music]

Ha!
I knew it was here somewhere.

Hog's breath I
already own that one.

All the clues still point to the
church but your day's coming.

I'm close boy,
I can feel it in my bones.

The treasure?

What else would I be
talking about but King Charles'

war chest? It's been daring
me to find it for 22 years.

So why haven't you grandfather?

Because I'm not positive
where it is buried... Yet.

But what if someone
else finds it first?

It's been lying there
for 350 years, it'll be

safe until I get one
solid piece of evidence.

It's already begun, another
pauper seeking a handout!

And now they're coming
all the way from Germany.

Good day Mrs. Stout
and to you Rachel.

Afternoon Mr. Crabtree,
you as well Ted.

I don't know why
you don't pay more

attention to that
nice Mr. Crabtree.

He's obviously very fond of you.

Yes,
I know he's very sweet but give

me my animals
you can trust them.

By the time people get grown
up they lose their angel eyes.

Do I have angel eyes?

Sure you do Stitches. They're in

your heart,
not your head stupid.

So you really are an angel?

I'm a cherub...
it's not quite an angel but

remember... you can't
tell anyone you promised.

Ok, I promised.

Good.

But when do you
get to be an angel?

Who knows? I just keep doing

what Felecia tells
me and one day

when I've helped
enough people I'll

finally get to be a real angel.

[hopeful music]

C'mon, it's Rachel!

How come you're
so interested in her?

She's why I'm here, I watch
over people's children. I was

supposed to watch over hers
but she doesn't even have any.

You go on, I'll look for Heidi.

[soft country guitar music]

Dear now what's this?

Excuse me ladies I'm hunting
for a fellow named Malcolm Slee.

I'm looking for a fellow by
the name of Malcolm Slee.

Oh he lives in bridge cottage
just over the way there.

Thank you.

Hey! It's Robin Hood.

Where?

Um I own the pub,
The Victoria, I'm Ellen Stout

and this is Rachel Blackman.
Ms. Rachel Blackman

Hello and this fine
young gentleman Diggity.

Raymond, Raymond Kane. I'm from

Georgia.
Thanks for the directions.

An American in Copenwill,
how odd.

Curious to say the least. Well I

need someone to
help me make custard.

I'm your man then

Good, let's go

Well have fun you too.

Doesn't anyone respect
tea time anymore?

Well, is there a
reason you're standing

on my doorstep this time of day?

I'm hunting for a
man named Slee.

What?

I'm looking for a
man named Mr. Slee.

And who are you?

Name's Kane, Raymond Kane,
I'm from Georgia.

America. You're Mr. Kane?

Since birth.

Oh, please please come in.

I was expecting a letter though.

He really likes you, you know?

Mr. Crabtree likes
any woman with hips

No, not him the man we met it
was written all over his face.

Well I can't say I noticed.

I've inherited a church?

Yes.

And you can see for
yourself the amount of

work this wonderful
old church requires.

I really inherited a church.

That was Sir Robin Cope,
the only man

from this village
to ever be knighted.

They actually renamed
the village after him in 1598.

What in God's name am I
going to do with a church?

We'll help you sort that out.

[heartfelt music]

Do you have any children?

No.

You sure? I mean they're not off
at boarding school or anything?

No, I'm quite sure.

You thinking of having any?
You'd make a great mom.

I think you've had enough
sugar for today, thank you.

I've gotta test it.

Uh uh.

I can't believe it has
happened to me again.

My half brother Otis
is just gonna love this.

I come all this way and
my inheritance is a church.

Well actually it hasn't
been used as a proper

church in quite some time.
Please do sit down.

No, we're all too afraid it's
going to collapse some day on

someone and no one wants that
liability on their shoulders.

Ah even better I've
inherited a public hazard.

Yes, I believe we're
all agreed on that

point... but all may
not be lost Mr. Kane.

It seems only right to make
you reasonable offer for the

property and take that burden of
liability from your shoulders.

What's this?

[ominous music]

I can have the papers ready
to sign by noon tomorrow

and I can convert the
price into dollars if you like.

Well.

You got yourself a deal

Indeed, indeed yes, now I'm know
you must be exhausted, I'm sure

you'll enjoy our local B&B. It's

small but I hear
quite comfortable.

Well, until tomorrow then.

Until noon, yes,
don't forget your Cain please.

Alrighty, bye bye.

Goodbye, goodbye.

This must be the place.

[country guitar music]

Can I...
oh it's Robin Hood again.

Where?

- You need a room?
- Please.

Come on in then.

Bedtime young hearts, come on.

So are we going to
have to move again?

Well I'm not leaving
until I find Heidi.

You just get some sleep now,
your

father will take
care of all of that.

Hello, Ian,
pint of the usual is it?

I'm still on duty, Oscar.

Italic.

Well I think it's time
to say goodnight.

Ah come on, one more.

I think he could use a
hand to get home, don't you?

If I wanted to help
a drunk find his

bed at night I'd
still be married. Night all.

Goodnight, Rachel.

Alright, I'm buying.

Well I guess she's right.

But I'm gonna go,
don't get up Charlie.

[singing to himself]

♪ The wings of an angel ♪

♪ Over the... and under... ♪

♪ Could fly ♪

Come here now little angel.

Let's put you right here.

Let's just sit you right
here on my shoulder.

That's it, don't you move now.

Stay right there. Oh mercy.

Oh if momma could see me now.

Hello there. Mis-step.

Mr. Fletcher.

I bet you'd like my momma

Mr. Fletcher.
I miss her every day.

What you doing out here?

Haven't you heard?

I own this place.
At least until tomorrow.

Didn't I meet you?

I was with Ms. Rachel.
I'm Diggity.

Kane! Raymond Kane from Georgia.

[sweet hopeful music]

I beg your pardon, son.

Feel better?

I invented that you know?

You invented the
sneeze ah well...

I only did it so that people
could say "God Bless You".

Kinda cool, huh?

It's a sneeze son.

Everybody does it.

I don't.

Mr. Kane, wait up.

I'm Ian Law, I was in
the pub with you just now.

Ah hah.

You're not lost are ya?

No, sir.

Just out here get a little air,
clear

my head.
I got talkin' to this little--

Huh... he was just here.

Strange little fella.

Ah it sounds like Diggity,
he's an orphan of sorts.

Stray, huh.

Yea,
people around here kinda look

after him whenever they show up.

Uh huh.

Children like that
come along more

and more these days...
pretty sad.

Well talking of orphans, I'll
give you lift back to Rachel's.

Don't want you to become
a stray now as well, do we?

Sir.

What was he
thinking with that hat?

I know, he's a bit of a wreck.

That's it, if I can fix him...
we've got a

lot of catching up to
do with you Mr. Kane.

If I fix you that'll have
to make me an angel.

I only ever call my guests twice

Mr. Kane and that's
the short payment.

Hey!

That's morning light, don't
you know it can blind a fella?

Well you'll just have to do
your work in the dark then.

Work?

Well if it's true you
can't pay for your room in

full Mr. Kane, you're
going to have to work for it.

Hey you can start by
helping Artemis mend his

wagon and then you can
chop some fire wood for me.

I can't!

I got to see Mr. Slee at noon.

Perfect, you've got 4 and a half
hours, it's 7:30 now Mr. Kane.

Seven-thirty?

I'll be back at 7:35
to make the bed.

Oh and it's just a
suggestion but I really

would get rid of those
ridiculous clothes.

I took the liberty
of finding some

that should suit you just fine.

[ominous music]

Mr. Slee, what can I do for you?

I'm in need of your
services constable,

be at my home at noon today.
Thank you.

Well hold on a minute,
what services?

How you doing there Arty?

Ok, just a bit more. Ok... yea.

Papa, I'm going to
Andy's to find Heidi.

Alright.

Just stay away
from Bridge Cottage!

That's it Raymond.

Who's Heidi?

Pet guinea pig.

She got away recently.

Alright.

Appreciate your help.

It's a tough job for one man.

You're talking to a
fellow who tried to sell

dentures by mail order...
now that's a tough job.

Just put it in the box with the
other Christmas donations there.

Well...

I'll see you all later, I gotta
get on over to see Mr. Slee.

Do you think he knows what this
church means to the village?

[ominous music]

What are you up to, Mr. Slee?

It's a fair offer
and you know it.

Twelve-fifteen and--

[knocking]

It's him...
now remember you're just here to

witness the signatures,
you don't have an opinion.

Emma!
Here let me give you a hand.

Thank you dear, you take these

I'll get the rest
out of the car.

Did you rob a
laundry or something?

Even better, they're from
my sister in Wiggington.

She's a tart.

Well at least she
was a generous one.

Well generosity
won't help much if

there's no church
to hold the fate in.

Ah now isn't that precious.

I know it's none of my business
deary but you might want to set

that one aside.
You do know every

eligible man in the village--

Yea, that's really not possible.

Oh... I'm sorry I mentioned it.
I always talk too much.

Emma, please don't feel bad.

It's just I was pregnant once...

my um...

my husband came home
from the pub one night...

one or two pints over the top.

We um...

we had a fight on the landing.

Um...

I lost the baby.

[sad music]

I didn't know.
I'm sorry sweetie.

No.

Life goes on.

Well rumor has it
that your American has

agreed to sell the church
property to Mr. Slee.

Is that why he's over at Slee's?

Mhm.

Well if that's
what he's up to he

can find somewhere else to stay.

And he's not my American.

You make a good bargain,
Mr. Kane. Now

if you can just
have your signature.

Uh huh.

Make yourself useful,
boy, retrieve my favorite

bottle and three glasses.
This calls for a wee drab.

I'll get four, one for me.

I've told you a hundred times,
children and gentlemen don't mix.

[voice of stepmother]
No mam,

children and ladies do not mix.

Now march off and do as I say.

The brashness of youth.

Oh God bless you man.

I beg your pardon, thank you.

Your signature, Mr. Kane.

I don't think I'm quite
ready to sign this.

What's the problem?

I don't know, I just think I
need to think on it a spell.

You have to sign it,
we have an agreement Mr. Kane.

Well from what I
understand the property is

still mine and I don't
have to do anything.

Now I'll get back to you
Mr. Slee, thank you for the tea.

Constable, explain to
Mr. Kane that there's not a

soul interested in
purchasing that pile of rubble.

Oh I haven't got an opinion,
Mr. Slee, remember?

Oh Mr. Kane, let me
encourage you to reconsider!

Was it something the boy said?

Ah!

[ominous music]

I don't think, grandfather.

See what you've done you just

better hope you
didn't cross me--

Hey now.

What's this?

It's just something I
took off that gypsy kid.

And how did he get ahold
of something like this?

Found it somewhere
around the church I think.

Hog's breath!

Do you know what this means?

I'm turning blue.

No!

King Charles' war chest
is hidden somewhere

in that church and I
had it in my hands.

He'll rue the day
he crossed Malcolm

Slee. Get me Snidely
Slee and quickly.

Make that gypsy boy talk!

Things happen
there like the fate.

It's something you yanks might

call a fair but on
a much smaller

scale. We have one twice a

year but instead
of selling things

the villagers donate what they

can to support the needy and

homeless in the
surrounding area.

Well from what I can
see these folks are the

needy. Don't they care
about making money?

Well at least they have
a roof over their heads.

Now what is it
with that suitcase?

Think I'll let you
handle this one.

And I don't need to
give you an explanation.

Now hold on.

No, no, no cause this is
my house and I decide who

sleeps here and who doesn't,
and you doesn't, don't.

The least you can do is
tell me what I did woman.

Well the first thing
you did wrong was

being born a man
and from the looks

of things you
went down hill from

there; and don't
ever call me woman!

What is the use
of talking to you!

Precisely, Mr. Kane.
You sold the church property out

from under us so there is
absolutely no point in you

being here any longer.
So why don't you just take

your thirty pieces of silver
and get back to America.

I didn't sell the church.
Is that what this is all about?

I thought that was... why
you met with Mr. Slee today, to

sell the church and the land
that the Roma's are living on.

I changed my mind.

What happened?

I don't know.
I just saw something in him

and he brought back
bad memories, that's all.

Well he does that to
everyone he meets.

I am...
very sorry for how I acted

throwing out your belongings.

If I had known you weren't
selling I wouldn't have---

Oh I'm still selling just
not to him. I've met men

like him before,
I'm not gonna be anybody's fool.

[Rachel]
Just get out.

Bad move, Raymond.

You're a nut, you know that?
A dyed in the world nut.

Have you always had
a way with women?

Are you saying I
handled that wrong?

And get rid of that stupid hat!

You think so?

She's starting to get on my
nerves. Her and everyone

else in this village full of
idiots, and I like my hat!

Me thinks he doth
protest too much.

Come on!

[playful music]

Maybe she went
back to your place.

She's a guinea pig,
not a homing pigeon.

I'm too close to Old Slee's,
I'm going.

Cause you're afraid of Rupert,
he made you eat chicken poop.

Well that was only once,
I'm going.

I've just remembered
I've got some things to do.

[ominous music]

And every time the
estate agent shows

it to someone
something goes wrong.

So we'll have it
for the fate then.

Well I don't think Raymond
will find a buyer before

then he's already had
two people turn him down.

No luck yet then eh?

Nope but the estate
agent is showing

it to some more people tomorrow.

I don't know what
the problem is.

I don't want to see the
church sold but I do feel

sorry for poor old Robin Hood.
He's such a hand chap!

He's going to be sleeping
up at the Roma's, the

wife gave him a couple
of blankets this afternoon.

Have you all gone mad?
Before you know

it the church will be sold,
the Roma's

will be run out of
Copenwill and your

precious Mr. Kane
he'll be back in America.

What will you all be
talking about then, hmm?

Oh you'll feel better dear once
we start decorating the church.

What's the point?

Oh I wish there was
something we could

do to help Raymond
and spare the church.

Maybe there is
something we can do.

Well it looks fit enough.
What about the roof?

Oh it's in excellent shape.
I checked it out myself.

And I suppose you've checked the

plumbing and
electricity as well?

Yes I think you'll find--

[explosion and shooting sound]

Thank you darlin'.

Can't wait till tomorrow
it's gonna be so much fun.

Ms. Rachel said I could help
mix some butter in the morning.

After I finish I'll help
you look for Heidi.

And here is her new home.

Thanks!

What is that?

Hmm? Oh... that...
is a going away

present from a very
dear friend of mine.

Oh it's an angel pin.

Do you believe in angels?

Well I've never been personally

introduced to one but...
I suppose.

So you don't have angel eyes.

Mr. Kane has lovely eyes, now

why don't we
finish it for today.

There... that will make
some little boy happy, huh?

That is very nice, Arty.

I'll finish this tomorrow.

Why don't we
all call it a a day.

Come on kids
let's say goodnight.

Goodnight.

Goodnight my dear.

- Goodnight Mr. Kane.
- Goodnight Mandy.

Goodnight.

Night, Stitches.

You got a real nice
family there, Arty.

Thank you.

I guess you're pretty anxious
to get back to your own

family. Especially with
Christmas just a few days away.

Well... I don't really have
any family to speak of so...

[tender music]

Well Mr. Kane I just
want you to know... if

you do leave...
you'll be missed around here.

Thanks, Arty.

Well I better hit
the hay myself,

tomorrow promises
to be a busy day.

Arty,
you mind if I ask you something?

What do you know about Rachel?

Beside the fact
that she's the reason

you have to sleep under a wagon?

Yea... I guess that sums
her up... goodnight, Arty.

Have a good night.

Sweet dreams.

[whistling to self]

I know your mom taught
you better than that.

You little twit!

[dramatic music]

Oye! My bucket!

Sorry!

That was fun. You know
you're not as old as you look.

Easy for you to say.

I could get to
like you you know.

Ah save it for
somebody else Diggity,

that stuff don't
stick to me too good.

You should know by now
you can't choose who likes you.

You just get stuck with them
like a gift you didn't ask for.

Yea well... I better get this
bread over to the church or

Mrs. Roma will give me
something else I didn't ask for.

[people chattering]

Here you go!

Raymond, how kind thank you.

You're welcome.

Robin Hood brought this one.

Stitches, would you
and Diggity run back to

the wagon?
I forgot the other box of bows.

We've all talked it over
and we're all in agreement.

The village wants to
buy the land from you.

We know it won't be
the $50,000 Slee offered

but we'll pay you what
we can to start with.

But... what about the cottage
you and Gwen have been

saving for, Arty you
can't just throw that away.

We've discussed it as a family.
It's exactly what we want to do.

If you can just see your way
to giving us another week to

come up with the down payment
we need at least that much time.

Oh... Mandy,
I've forgotten my sowing basket.

Would you mind going
back to the cottage?

Yes, Ms. Rachel.

Thank you, it's on the table.

We're all set here.

Well Mom and Dad,
it's Christmas again,

grandfather still doesn't
celebrate holidays.

I always try to do
something extra

nice for him,
he acts as if he doesn't

appreciate it but I
know deep down

he really does.
You know how he is.

I guess this year's
been alright for him

he still misses you,
Mom, a whole lot.

Well I'll stop by to
check on you and

let you know how
everyone's doing.

[sad music]

[ominous music]

It's not safe for the chickens
to be so far away from the hen.

Look snipe it's
old church mouse.

Got any more
apples in your hat kid?

You know you really
have an attitude problem.

Hey, I wanna know where
you found that gold coin!

You shouldn't do that you know

Wait, he's got Heidi!

And I'm just crazy
enough to bite his

stupid little head
clean off so talk!

That's enough!

Told you before to stay out
of my way. Where'd you find it?

In the church cellar behind the
wall. Can I have Heidi back now?

No, I think I'll eat her anyway.

Can't you do something?

Eat this!

I told you before,
leave my little brother alone!

I was talking to you you know?

Men, so helpless.

The devil with you.

[tender music]

My sweet, Edna.

It's unnatural for a father...
to

outlive his daughter,
it's unnatural.

Curse it!

God didn't prepare
me for this life.

What in thunder.

There was this really big--

Stop whining boy
what about the coin?

It's under the church
at the end of the tunnel.

You sure?

Yes sir, I'm sure.

Very well. The hunt is on.

[ominous music]

- Hey you got yourself a deal.
- Thank you so much.

- Wonderful.
- Thanks, Raymond.

Oh my pleasure.

Yea, me too.

Arty.

He can't leave yet.

Oh... mam.

It might be possible that I
was a little hasty to judge you.

We have a deal Felecia!

Well it might be
possible that I was just...

Well, well, well, well, well.

And you thought
I didn't know what

this gaggle of
near-do-wells was up to.

No deals are
made in this village

without me,
haven't you learned that yet?

And your little
party just ended.

What's this?

It's from the tax office.

It would seem this
building no longer

qualifies for church exemption.

The land has lost
its tax exempt status

when the lease ran
out two years ago.

What's all that mean, Ian?

It means that Raymond
as the owner owes her

majesty's government quite
a large amount of money.

How much?

Well a lot more than
we can come up with.

When's it due?

Uh it's...
hereby stated this needs to

be paid by within
ten days of the date...

that's the day after tomorrow.

How long you been
sitting on this, Slee?

Oh you really
think you're the bull

dog of the boneyard, don't you?

I'm that and so much more,
Mr. Kane.

Just ask these good people,
you see you can either pay the

queen's tax the by the day after
tomorrow or lose everything.

Now... let's see your Yankee
ingenuity figure this one out.

You scum!

Tut, tut, tut, Mr. Kane.
You really

don't want to get
on my bad side.

Up until now this
has just been fun and

games... After you're
long gonna from here

I should hold every
one of these people

personally responsible
for your actions.

Where you going with this, Slee?

You either lose your property to
the government and go home to

your dog patch as broke as you
arrived, or you sell it to me...

for ten percent
less than my original

offer to cover the frustration

you've caused me and go home
with some money in your pocket.

And I'll forget the
role your friends here

played in trying to buy
it out from under me.

Now you have until cock
crows tomorrow morning.

What are we gonna do, Raymond?

I don't know that
there's much we can do.

[heartfelt somber music]

Uh... Mr. Slee hold on.

That's preposterous!

Well it doesn't sound
unreasonable to me,

and this will seal
the deal before the

vicar returns the day
after tomorrow and

face it,
he can match you toe to toe.

How badly do you really want it?

And you guarantee
those gypsys will

be off my property
within 24 hours?

Very well.

And um...
let's not forget about the tax.

It's not fair,
how am I supposed to

help someone who
has no faith at all?

Give me something
to work with here.

And what about Rachel?
How am I supposed to

help her child when she
doesn't even have one?

[heartfelt music]

It's just that I'm really
tired and sometimes I

get scared that I'm never
gonna get my wish at all.

It seems to me a fella
who can chuck a nut like

that shouldn't have too
much to be scared of.

I didn't hear you.

Well I didn't mean
to eves drop but...

seeing as I did.
Let me tell you something.

Now... it's alright to talk
to God and all, I mean

everyone needs someone to
talk to once in a while but...

you gotta stop acting
like you hear him

talking back.
Folks are beginning to wonder.

I'm not talking to God, I'm

talking to Felecia.
She's my angel.

Oh... well...

I could tell you weren't
talking to Rachel cause

you were gettin' to
do most of the talking.

What do you have
faith in Raymond?

Oh... what I can hold in
my own two hands I guess.

That's not much.

Well maybe not.

Anyhow, I just wanted to tell
ya that no matter what anybody

says I think you're an alright

little kid.
A real little rooster.

You say that like
you're leaving.

Well... I'll be heading
back to Georgia tomorrow

morning. I didn't wanna
leave without saying goodbye.

But you can't,
there's still too much to do.

Let him go, Diggity.
He's got what he came for.

There you get something in your
craw you just don't let it go.

You have your money now,
Mr. Kane.

There's absolutely no reason
for you to be here any longer.

You think you got everything
and everybody pegged. Don't ya?

No,
I don't but I got it absolutely

right when it came to you.

Do I have to tell
you everything?

Don't they kiss in Georgia?

You guys are hopeless.

Signed sealed and delivered.

I believe these people
are trespassing, Constable.

The deal was they
could still have the fate.

Very well but not
a moment longer.

This is private property now.

I'm gonna help
Artemis and Gwen pack.

Grandfather, here it is.

In you go boy.

Well don't just stand there,
I'll need a witness.

That's what he
was talking about.

Give me a hand quickly. Push.

What is this Mr. Slee?
Where does it lead?

If I'm right you're in for
the surprise of your life. Go!

Grandfather, it keeps
going around to the left.

Go on boy, go on boy.

Going right now.

Move on boy, move on.

Grandfather, you were right!

Hog's breath!

What is it?

Gonna be rich, grandfather.

What do you think is in it,
Mr. Slee?

A king's ransom, constable.
A king's ransom! Here hold this.

Is this it?

Hey, this...

What's this!

Is this what I've
been searching for!

What are you talking about?
This is

worth a fortune to
the National Trust.

It's not worth the
cost of a small

cottage,
to hell with the National Trust!

Well that's something,
grandfather.

Oh shut up you blithering idiot!

Well decide what
you're gonna do, I'm

going back up.
The air in here is stifling.

[soft tender music]

Well I Old Slee's gonna sit down

there all night
guarding his treasure?

I can remember
a time not too long

ago I would have
done the same thing.

You know I find
that hard to believe,

after what you did for Arty,
you know?

No big deal I got a
plane ticket out of it.

You know I still
don't understand

why you didn't tell Rachel,

she sure gave
you a brow beating,

one of the best I've seen.

Sometimes things
are better left unsaid.

Besides that was
between me and Arty.

I sure envy that fella.
I hope he realizes how

lucky he is to have a
close family like that.

Anyhow.

He taught me something pretty
special. Sometimes to figure

out what love is you gotta
figure out what the opposite is.

And what's that?

Well I used to
think it was hate.

Now I know it's selfishness.

He's got it! You owe me Felecia,

he's changed and
now I want my wish.

Good morning.

Good morning, Rachel!

I've brought something for you.

Look, I just wanted to say
I'm really sorry about what's--

That's not plum
pie or is it now?

Yea well it's
your favorite so...

Gwen, look at this it's great.

Oh great, come sit by the fire.

Look, anyway guys I
just wanted to come and--

You know what,
we should cut this right now if

only I can find where I
put those knives and forks.

But...

I... my garden isn't
very large and it's

not as private as
you're accustomed to

but you're welcome to
park your wagon there

if you want to for
as long as you like.

Well we do need
a place to put it.

Our garden is full.

The gate's not really wide

enough to pull it
through anyway.

Wait a minute,
what are you talking about?

Mommy, it's Mr. Kane!

Well he's got a nerve.

[Gwen]
Oh what the-- thank you,

thank you so much Mr. Kane.

Wait a minute, it's because of

Mr. Kane here that
you guys have lost

your home.
Hey you're packing up now

God knows where
you're gonna end up.

Oh sure we're packing but
we know where we're moving to.

Yea, that's right Rachel,
Mr. Kane

gave us our very own cottage.
Now we're

finally going to
have a real home.

Didn't anyone tell you.

I can't get anyone
to tell me anything.

Mr. Kane sold the
church property to

Mr. Slee in exchange
for his own cottage.

So you own Bridge Cottage.

He did but he gave it to us.

Isn't this wonderful!

Why is it that you never
cease to amaze me, Mr. Kane?

I don't know.

This calls for pie for everyone!

Yea, pie.

[hopeful music]

I was gonna come
by in the morning and

say goodbye but
you'll be at the fate.

Mm I suppose I will but um...
well it wouldn't

be right to let you
go without a hot meal.

Well I appreciate that.

Supper, seven-ish?

Sorry?

Supper, seven-ish.

Alrighty.

Plum pie, Raymond?

Thank you, mam.

And this is your favorite,
humble pie.

What? Did I miss something?

Can I ask you
something personal?

Sure.

How did you um... get that scar?

There was an accident...
when I was young.

I lost my momma.

I'm sorry.

It was a long time ago.

Anyhow.

Thanks for asking.

I'll um... just get these plates
and we can have some coffee.

Well let me help you

No, no, no it's fine I uh... I
like having someone for dinner.

Can I ask you
something personal?

I suppose so.

Oh ooh, ooh.

Well we've been here before.

Yea, I believe so.

Um... you said you had
something personal to ask me.

Something personal?

[Tea pot whistling]

[window opening,
plates breaking]

Sorry, excuse the interruption
I just wanted to see Raymond.

About what?

Oh nothing,
nothing I just wanted

to show you
something at the church.

But that can wait until
the morning! What time

do you need to leave
for the airport tomorrow?

Oh I don't know
around noon I believe.

Ok.

Or maybe a little after that.

Ok, well I'll let you two get
back to your conversation.

What else do I have to do?
It all worked out.

Raymond even gave Bridge
Cottage to Mr. and Mrs. Roma.

He never have done that before.

You just don't play fair do you?

Come in!

Thank you.

That's about all we can do.
Until Mr. Slee has

the rest of his things
moved to the church.

This is going to be wonderful!
I even have my own bedroom.

Slee said he'll be
here by 8 o'clock.

Stitches,
go see what's keeping him.

He's on our time now darling.

I'll take another box
while we're waiting.

Well c'mon I'll show
what I think I've found.

Any idea what
he's talking about?

Nope.

Diggity, where you been?

Just around.

See Slee?

He's still inside the
church with Rupert.

Why?
My dad wants him and I don't

wanna go in the
cellar on my own.

I'll come.

Thirty-one, 32, 33, 34, 34...

Mr. Slee!

Mr. Slee.

What is it boy?

My dad wants you.

Does he now?

Yes sir.

Oh very well. You stay here...

and I know exactly how
much there is. Come on boy.

You look hungry.

I can bring you something.

Thanks kid.

What's that?

I don't know it's happened
several times this morning.

So where's this going, Ian?

Well the way I figure
it the 15 paces left on

this chart put Slee's
treasure right about there.

You've got to be kidding.

It was under Slee's
cottage the whole time.

And now the Roma's
own the cottage

and I can't wait to tell 'em.

What's that! God.

[tense dramatic music]

MY God what happened?

We were talking and the whole
thing fell through on Rupert.

Quickly,
get some help in a hurry!

I see him!

Well we better
get him out of there

before the whole
thing collapses!

I can get through!

Good lad, c'mon quickly.
Quickly, hurry, hurry.

Ok boy, steady, steady, ok!
Back!

[dramatic tense music]

Hey Raymond,
come back and look at this!

What's up, Arty?

Everybody come quick!

The tunnel fell in,
Rupert's buried!

Stitches, run and get help,
anybody everybody!

[tense music]

Rupert, Rupert c'mon lad!
Rupert are you alright?

Come on son, come to me.
Come on Rupert.

Come on lad. Give me your hand.

Come on.

Good boy. Are you alright?

Diggity! Diggity.

Ok, son.

Diggity!

Diggity! Diggity!

Are you alright? Are alright?

Are you alright?
Yes, yes you're alright.

Where's Diggity?

He's inside, it all collapsed.

We're gonna need some tools.

Ok, I'll be right back.

Diggity!

[tense music]

- How bad is it?
- Oh it's very bad.

They're gonna need help
getting Diggity out. Oh thank

God I thought I'd lost him.
I'm sorry lad, I'm so sorry.

Well let's get him
out of the dust.

Ian, where are they?

They're down there,
follow the lights.

George, the church c'mon!

[dramatic music]

The church, there's an accident.

- Raymond.
- Arty, give me a hand!

Hey, Artemis use this.

And give me that.

No, no, no you need a break.

Lord, there's too much dirt

someone's gotta
start moving it out.

Diggity's gonna be ok,
he has to be.

Thank goodness it's Mrs. Helps.

I called emergency
service before I

left,
they should be here directly.

Thank you.

Diggity would tell
you to have faith.

Diggity's still trapped
under the church.

[tense music]

Here's his hat!

Well stop using the
shovels we don't know

exactly where he is
and you might hit him.

There he is!

Come on!

We've gotta get
him out of there.

[dramatic music]

[tense music]

[medic]
No pulse.

[medic]
One, two, three.

One, two, three, four.

Pump.

Nothing's working!

How long has it been?

Oh at least 15, 20 minutes.

[medic]
Three, two, one. Four, five.

[flat-line sound]

There's still no pulse.

[somber music]

What are ya stopping for?

Come on.

Raymond, come on.

[somber heartfelt music]

Come on.

[heartfelt music]

He saved my grandson you know.

Are either of the parents here?

Well actually the poor lad's a--

[both]
Yes.

They can stay.

Diggity, wake up!
Surely you're not dead.

Stitches. We must go now.

There's nothing we can do.

Come on.

Diggity! Diggity. Diggity!

Diggity! Diggity!

Wait.

There are some papers
you'll need to sign.

Maybe we can take care
of that in the morning.

Oh just bring them to me,
I'll see to it.

He's breathing, he's alive!

It's just your imagination.

I really saw him breath,
he's not dead.

It's common it's just air
escaping from the lungs.

Wait, wait, I heard something.

I heard that!

Like I said,
just air in the lung.

It's a very common thing dear.

[angelic choir music]

Felecia, did I do it?

Yes, precious you did it.

But there's something
you need to understand.

What's that?

It wasn't Raymond you needed to

change,
or Mr. Slee or anyone else.

I don't get it.

It was you.

I don't get it.

It was you...
you had a character

flaw that only
you could correct.

You spent all those
years helping people

but you weren't
doing it because you

loved them.
You did it so you could get

your wish to become
and angel like me.

It was a selfish love.

But how come I'm
still here then if I failed.

Oh but you didn't fail.

But you didn't fail.

You showed true unselfish and

unconditional love
for a human being.

I did?

When you were
willing to give up your

mortal life and your dreams,
to save Rupert.

You finally got
everything right.

So now do I get my wish?

Now you get loves greatest
gift... the freedom of choice.

What do you mean choice?

What do you mean choice?

That means you get
to choose between

being the angel
you've always wanted...

Or what?

Or you can stay
here with them... and

be the child they've
always wanted.

I don't really have
any family to speak of.

You guys are hopeless.

No, no, no it's fine I like
having someone for dinner.

Do you have any children?

I lost the baby, life goes on.

You got a real nice
family there, Arty.

If I go what will
happen to them?

Only God knows.

[both]
Yes.

If I go, I can't ever come back?

How could they get by
without me? They need me.

Diggity, it's time.

I can't, I can't leave.

I'm proud of you, Diggity.

You'll make them
a wonderful son.

[dramatic heartfelt music]

Oh my God!

[people chattering]

Still hard to believe that's all

there was to King
Charles' war chest.

Still you have to
admit when I told

you the treasure
was under bridge

cottage and that it
rightfully belonged

to Artemis you
were pretty upset.

And to think all the
years I spent looking for it.

Just come and see it anytime.

[Ian laughing]

[Slee laughing]

What's this?

Something,
no the village deserves.

It's the deed to the church.

I don't know what to say.

Except thank you.

Bless you.

Thank Diggity.

If it wasn't for you lad I'd
have lost the most important

thing in the world to me and I
wouldn't have even known it.

I have a few apologies
of my own to make.

Well we were mad for a minute,
weren't we?

Yea, I suppose we were.

Don't you have
something to ask her?

Uh...

What if she says no.

What if you don't ask.

Will you?

I will.

[crowd cheering]

Hey everyone, it's the vicar!

Here's a contract for the money,
the bishop finally came through.

[Slee laughing]

What's going on?
I'm not too late am I?

No, vicar you're just in time--

To perform a wedding!

Here's to Copenwell's
new family!

To Robin Hood,
Maid Marianne and their son.

Cheers!

Cheers!

Come on everybody.

Cheers!

Yea!

This is yours.

Thanks.

To Heidi.

Wherever she is.

Everybody,
time we had some snaps for

the family album,
this way come on kids.

My dear Speck.

This is a photo of my new wife,
Rachel and

our son we are adopting.
His name is Diggity.

I've finally discovered
what I'm best suited

for. I guess you could
call it a family business.

And remember, I always love you.

Lots of love, Uncle Raymond.

P.s. I'm returning your little

angel...
she took great care of me.

I knew you could fix her,
Uncle Raymond.
