Denise:
EXCUSE ME.
EXCUSE ME.

COMING THROUGH.
EXCUSE ME.

HAVE YOU SEEN MY GYM SHOES?

BY YOUR BED.

REALLY?

THAT'S WHERE I
TRIPPED OVER THEM.

I HAVE GYM IN THREE MINUTES.

YOU CAN'T GET THERE
IN THREE MINUTES.

I DO IT ALL THE TIME.

AREN'T YOU WORKING
IN THE LIBRARY?

I'M GOING IN A MINUTE.



SO WHAT'S IT LIKE WORKING THERE?

I LOVE IT.

WHEN I WORKED
IN THE CAFETERIA

I FELT LIKE THE WHOLE SCHOOL
BLAMED ME FOR THE FOOD.

BUT NOW,
EVERYONE HAS TO BE NICE TO ME

BECAUSE I KNOW
WHERE THE BOOKS ARE

AND THEY DON'T.

SO WAIT A MINUTE,
TELL ME

ARE THERE ANY
CUTE GUYS?

YOU ARE GOING
TO BE LATE.

IT'S OKAY.
I LIKE THE CHALLENGE.

BYE.

BYE.

Denise:
LOOK OUT,
COMING THROUGH.

LAUTEN, HI.

HI. GUESS WHAT
I'M LOOKING FOR?

A BOOK.

RIGHT.

YOU'VE COME
TO THE RIGHT PERSON.

I'M WRITING A PAPER
FOR MY ECON CLASS.

I HAVE A GREAT TOPIC--
MACROECONOMICS.

I WOULDN'T HAVE
THOUGHT OF THAT.

NEITHER DID ANYONE ELSE.

I ALREADY TALKED
TO MY PROFESSOR

AND HE RECOMMENDED THIS BOOK.

MACRO SYSTEM
BY CLAYTON HAMAKER.

I CHECKED THE SHELVES,
AND IT WASN'T THERE.

I WAS WONDERING
IF YOU CAN FIND IT.

SOMEBODY PROBABLY
CHECKED IT OUT.

OH, I WASN'T EXPECTING THAT.

IT HAPPENS.

WELL, WHAT CAN I DO?

I CAN SEND YOU A POSTCARD
WHEN IT COMES IN.

I WANT TO GET STARTED
RIGHT AWAY.

LET ME SEE IF I CAN TRACK DOWN
WHO CHECKED IT OUT.

I LOVE HAVING FRIENDS
IN HIGH PLACES.

I'M IN AWE
OF THE POWER I WIELD.

HI, GUYS.

HI.

I HAVE AMAZING NEWS.

GOOD, I HAVEN'T BEEN
AMAZED ALL DAY.

TODAY, IN GYM CLASS,
WE RAN 60-METER SPRINTS.

AND..?

AND THEY TIMED US.

I HAD THE FASTEST
TIME IN THE CLASS.

THAT'S GREAT!

THERE'S MORE.

YOU COULD STOP RIGHT THERE,
AND I'D BE SATISFIED.

ANYWAY...

MY GYM TEACHER TOLD MR. OAKS,
THE ASSISTANT TRACK COACH.

I RAN ANOTHER 60-METER

AND GUESS WHAT?

I'M ON THE TEAM.

WAIT, THE TRACK TEAM?

THE TRACK TEAM.

NEXT WEEK WE'RE
RUNNING AGAINST FISK.

GREAT.

CAN YOU BELIEVE IT?

NO.

I THOUGHT YOU HATED GYM CLASS.

THIS ISN'T GYM CLASS.

IT'S THE TRACK TEAM.

THE POINT IS
I THOUGHT YOU HATED EXERCISE.

RUNNING HAS NOTHING
TO DO WITH EXERCISE.

I BEG YOUR PARDON?

I KNOW WHAT SHE MEANS.

GYM CLASS IS SERIOUS
AND MANDATORY

AND THIS IS FUN
AND AN HONOR.

IS THAT WHAT YOU MEAN?

I COULDN'T HAVE
SAID IT BETTER.

I'M VERY PROUD.

SOMETHING I ENCOURAGE
YOU ALL TO FEEL.

EXCUSE ME, I'M GOING
TO CALL MY PARENTS.

OH, WAIT,
I'LL GO WITH YOU.

THANKS, JALEESA.
BYE.

DENISE, I SHOULD
HOLD YOUR BAGS.

WHY?

I WANT YOU TO
SAVE YOUR STRENGTH.

HI, COLLECT FROM DENISE.

HEY, DAD.

YOU SOUND HAPPY.

HOW COME?

I'VE BEEN ASKED
TO JOIN THE TRACK TEAM.

AS WHAT?

DADDY, AS A RUNNER.

I RAN A 7.2 60-METER TODAY.

THE ASSISTANT TRACK COACH
ASKED ME PERSONALLY.

NO KIDDING?

I THOUGHT YOU HAD TOO MUCH HAIR
TO BE GOOD AT TRACK.

DADDY!

I'M SORRY.

DO YOU KNOW

YOU'RE THE THIRD GENERATION
OF RUNNING HUXTABLES AT HILLMAN?

WELL, I'LL TRY TO PRESERVE
THE FAMILY HONOR.

JUST PROMISE ME THIS WON'T
INTERFERE WITH YOUR SCHOOL WORK.

IT WON'T.
I PROMISE.

OR INTERFERE WITH
WHAT ALREADY INTERFERES

WITH YOUR SCHOOL WORK.

DADDY, I'LL BE OKAY.

I'M VERY PROUD OF YOU.

THANK YOU.

MY DAUGHTER, THE TRACK STAR.

THERE'S ONE THING
YOU HAVE TO DO FOR ME.

What's that?

COME UP WITH A NICKNAME.

ARE YOU SERIOUS?

I'm dead serious.

I'M NOT TALKING ABOUT
SOME STUPID NICKNAME

LIKE "FLASH," OR "ROCKET."

I WANT SOMETHING GOOD--

SOMETHING BEFITTING
THE DAUGHTER OF THE MAN

THEY USED TO CALL
"COMBUSTIBLE HUXTABLE."

WELL, HOW ABOUT
"COMBUSTIBLE HUXTABLE II"?

YOU KNOW, LIKE A SEQUEL.

IT WILL COME TO YOU.

( stomping and cheering )

ENGINE. ENGINE. ENGINE.

WHOO! WHOO!

THANK YOU. THANK YOU.

THANK YOU VERY MUCH.

WHAT DID YOU DO?

OUR OWN DENISE HUXTABLE--

WHO I HAVE LISTED IN MY
PHONE BOOK UNDER EVERY LETTER--

JUST RAN HER FIRST TRACK MEET.

I DON'T KNOW WHAT
WAS MOVING FASTER--

HER FEET OR MY HEART.

SHE RAN THE 200-METER RELAY,
AND SHE FINISHED SIXTH.

SIXTH.

IT WAS A STRONG
SIXTH, THOUGH.

THAT DOESN'T SOUND LIKE MUCH,
BUT FOR AN UNTRAINED RUNNER

IT SHOWS REAL POTENTIAL.

THANK YOU, COACH.

JUST A WEEK AGO, YOU WERE
PLAIN OLD DENISE HUXTABLE--

MARGINAL STUDENT
WITH NO FUTURE.

BUT TODAY, YOU ARE DENISE
"THE LITTLE ENGINE" HUXTABLE--

TRACK STAR.

LITTLE
ENGINE?

MAGGIE THOUGHT IT UP.

ORIGINALLY IT WAS
"THE LITTLE ENGINE THAT COULD."

DWAYNE SHORTENED IT.

BY THE TIME YOU
GET THE NAME OUT

THE RACE IS OVER.

WHAT DO YOU THINK, COACH?

IS THE NEXT TRACK STAR
LIVING HERE IN GILBERT?

YES!

COULD BE.

AS SOON AS WE TEACH HER
HOW TO RUN.

HOW TO RUN?

I JUST DID.

YOUR FEET WERE RUNNING.

THEY WERE DEFINITELY
IN THE RACE.

BUT THE REST OF YOU
WAS LIKE SWIMMING.

SWIMMING?

YOUR HANDS WERE
OUT AT YOUR SIDE.

YOU LOOKED LIKE YOU WERE
COMING UP FOR AIR.

YOU LOOKED BAD.

I HAVE TO TEACH YOUR WHOLE BODY
TO BE DOING THE SAME SPORT.

I HAVE A LOT TO LEARN.

IT BOGGLES THE MIND,
BUT YOU WILL GET IT.

THANKS, COACH.

AND I WILL BE AT EVERY RACE,
CHEERING YOU ON.

Jaleesa:
OH, DWAYNE...

EVERY TIME DENISE FINISHES A LAP

DON'T HUG ME.

FINE.
STIFLE ENTHUSIASM.

WELL, BYE, PEOPLE.

BYE, COACH.

THANKS.

BYE.

CONGRATULATIONS, DENISE.

Dwayne:
CONGRATULATIONS?

THIS GIRL JUST RAN
A HELLACIOUS RACE

AND ALL YOU CAN SAY
IS "CONGRATULATIONS?"

I COULD SAY, "GET OUT, DWAYNE."

"CONGRATULATIONS"
SOUNDS JUST FINE.

HUXTABLE, THIS IS
JUST THE BEGINNING.

YOU COULD GO ON TO BECOME
A WORLD-CLASS RUNNER.

MAYBE RUN
IN THE OLYMPICS.

THIS IS IT.

INTERNATIONAL STARDOM.

YOU CAN HAVE TV SHOWS, MOVIES,
YOUR OWN BREAKFAST CEREAL--

DENISE CHEX.

YOU GUYS,
I JUST RAN TWO RACES.

INDULGE US,
WILL YOU?

NOW THAT YOU'RE A STAR,
YOU'LL NEED A MANAGER.

YOU NEED SOMEONE
TO PROTECT YOU--

KEEP THOSE ANNOYING
PESTS AWAY.

DWAYNE, THAT WAY
YOU'D NEVER GET TO SEE HER.

WHILE YOU GUYS
ARE PLANNING MY FUTURE

I'M GOING TO CALL MY FOLKS.

Denise:
VIRGIL!

YOU WERE RUNNING,
BROTHER.

VIRGIL, YOU WERE GREAT TODAY.

OH, COME ON,
I WASN'T THAT GREAT.

COME ON,
TWO FIRST PLACES.

YOU'RE RIGHT.
I WAS GREAT.

I WAS SO NERVOUS
BEFORE MY FIRST RACE.

THIS GUY SAVED MY LIFE.

THE GUY JUST SAID
HE WASN'T THAT GREAT.

I DON'T KNOW
WHAT I'D DO WITHOUT YOU.

YOU LEFT YOUR GYM BAG
ON THE BUS.

SEE WHAT I MEAN?
THANKS.

NO PROBLEM.

SEE YOU TOMORROW AT PRACTICE.

PRACTICE? ALREADY?

YEAH, WE PRACTICE EVERY DAY.

WE DO?

YEAH.

OH... OKAY.

WELL, SEE YOU TOMORROW,
"ENGINE."

ENGINE. ENGINE. ENGINE.

ENGINE. ENGINE.

WHOO! WHOO!

(£ sitar music £)

GOOD MORNING, DENISE.

GOOD MORNING, WHITLEY.

LOSE A CONTACT?

YOU KNOW WHAT THEY SAY
ABOUT SARCASM:

LEADS TO HIGH BLOOD PRESSURE.

I'LL REMEMBER THAT.

WHITLEY, WHY ARE YOU
DOING YOGA IN THE LOBBY?

I NEED ROOM TO STRETCH

AND I DON'T THINK A LADY
SHOULD GET GAMY IN THE BOUDOIR.

OH, I SEE.

IT'S NOT EVEN 7:00.

I DIDN'T THINK YOU DRAGGED YOUR
BONES OUT OF BED BEFORE NOON.

I HAPPEN TO BE GOING
TO TRACK PRACTICE.

OH, YES, I HEARD YOU'VE BECOME
QUITE THE LADY ATHLETE.

AT LEAST,
QUITE THE ATHLETE.

HA HA.

I'LL HAVE YOU KNOW THAT PART OF
MY TRAINING IS LIFTING WEIGHTS--

HEAVY ONES.

REALLY?

WELL, YOU MUST TELL ME
WHEN YOUR NEXT TRACK MEET IS.

YEAH, I'LL BE SURE TO DO THAT.

BUT REMEMBER, SOMEONE'S
GOT TO FINISH LAST.

HA HA HA.

YOU ARE GOING TO LOVE ME.

I ALREADY DO LOVE YOU, JALEESA.

NOT LIKE I LOVE MY MOTHER,
OR MY FATHER, OR MY SISTER.

NOT LIKE I LOVE THAD.

MAGGIE, I FOUND YOUR BOOK.

I LOVE YOU!

THANK YOU!

I DIDN'T EXACTLY FIND IT

BUT I DID FIND THE GUY
WHO CHECKED IT OUT.

LARRY NICKENS.

HE LIVES OVER IN McCLANEY.

I'LL CALL HIM RIGHT NOW.

YOU GO DO THAT.

HI.

BYE.

HI.

HI.

ARE YOU ALL RIGHT?

I'M FINE.

YOU LOOK LIKE YOU'RE IN PAIN.

IT'S JUST MY BODY.

ANOTHER TOUGH PRACTICE?

IN ADDITION TO OUR USUAL
CALISTHENICS AND WEIGHT LIFTING

COACH HAD A LITTLE SURPRISE
FOR US TODAY.

HE HAD US RUNNING UP AND DOWN
THE STEPS OF THE TRACK STADIUM

ABOUT 6,000 TIMES.

AND WHILE I'M DOING THIS,
HE'S SCREAMING

"HUXTABLE, RAISE THOSE KNEES.
WHAT, ARE YOU ON VACATION?"

IT'S GOT TO GET EASIER.

AFTER ALL, EDWIN MOSES
WASN'T BUILT IN A DAY.

I DON'T KNOW.

IT'S JUST NOT WHAT I THOUGHT
IT WAS GOING TO BE.

MY FATHER, MY GRANDFATHER
RAN FOR HILLMAN.

AND I KNOW

HOW LUCKY I AM
TO BE ON THIS TEAM.

AND I WANT TO LOVE IT.

BUT WHENEVER I GET OUT THERE
AND I TRY TO LOVE IT

ALL I FEEL
IS THIS INCREDIBLE PAIN.

MAYBE YOU'RE BEING JUST
A LITTLE TOO HARD ON YOURSELF.

I DON'T THINK I HAVE
WHAT IT TAKES TO DO THIS.

SURE YOU DO.

IT'S JUST A LITTLE SORE
RIGHT NOW.

MAYBE YOU SHOULD CRASH
FOR THE REST OF THE NIGHT.

I HAVE NO CHOICE.

LARRY NICKENS LOANED THE BOOK
TO TONY MITCHELL

AND HE LOANED THE BOOK
TO RONNIE GARRETT

AND RONNIE'S GIRLFRIEND
LOANED IT TO SOMEBODY ELSE.

I DIDN'T KNOW MACROECONOMICS
WAS SO POPULAR.

I'LL HAVE TO
TRACK DOWN THE BOOK MYSELF.

DON'T SAY "TRACK."

DENISE, PHONE CALL.

OH, OKAY.

I'LL BE THERE...

SOMEDAY.

HELLO?

HI, DADDY.

HOW'S THE LITTLE ENGINE RUNNING?

GOOD.

Good.

I FOUND MY OLD STOP WATCH,
THE ONE I TIMED MYSELF WITH

WHEN I WAS AT HILLMAN.

Still keeps perfect time.

I'm going to send it to you.

OH, GREAT.

YOU SEE, I WAS SAVING IT
FOR THEO

BUT, YOU KNOW, THEO
HAS PROVEN TO BE...

SLOW.

WELL, I'LL TAKE
GOOD CARE OF IT, DADDY.

I KNOW.

HOW'S PRACTICE?

PRACTICE...

IS GOOD.

DO THEY STILL MAKE YOU

RUN UP AND DOWN
THE STEPS OF THE STADIUM?

OH, YES.

I'LL TELL YOU A SECRET.

WHEN YOU START TO GET TIRED

HOLD ON TO THE HOOD
OF THE PERSON IN FRONT OF YOU.

OKAY, I'LL REMEMBER THAT.

IN THE SPRING,
THEY WON'T BE WEARING HOODS

SO YOU MOVE TO THE SHIRTTAIL.

OKAY, DAD.

AFTER PRACTICE, I ALWAYS FELT
LIKE ONE GIANT, TINGLING NERVE.

MY MIND WAS CLEAR.

MY BODY WAS CLEAN.

I WAS READY
TO TAKE ON THE WORLD.

YEAH, THAT'S BASICALLY
HOW I FEEL.

Good.

I CAN HEAR IT IN YOUR VOICE.

HANG IN THERE,
LISTEN TO THE COACH

ENJOY YOURSELF.

AND I LOVE YOU.

I LOVE YOU, TOO.

GOOD-BYE.

GOOD-BYE.

YOU KNOW WHAT I WOULD
LOVE RIGHT NOW?

YOU'RE FROM BUFFALO,
SO YOU CAN'T APPRECIATE THIS.

I WOULD LOVE TO HAVE
A CONEY ISLAND HOT DOG.

WHAT DO YOU MEAN
I CAN'T APPRECIATE THAT?

VIRGIL, PLEASE

CONEY ISLAND IS THE BIRTHPLACE
OF THE HOT DOG.

I'M NOT JUST TALKING ABOUT
ANY OLD HOT DOG.

I'M TALKING ABOUT THE HOT DOG

WITH A TOASTED BUN
AND SPICY MUSTARD.

SO IT'S REALLY THE MUSTARD?

IT'S NOT JUST THE MUSTARD.

IT'S THE WHOLE COMBINATION.

YOU'RE FROM BUFFALO.

WHY AM I TALKING TO YOU?

YOU DON'T KNOW GOOD FOOD.

YOU'VE NEVER HAD
A BUFFALO CHICKEN WING.

A WHAT?

YOU'RE JOKING.

THEY'RE WORLD FAMOUS.

DEEP FRIED, CAJUN SEASONED, WITH
JUST THE RIGHT HINT OF GARLIC.

MMM.

CHICKENS ARE HONORED TO BE
A BUFFALO CHICKEN WING.

WHEN WILL WE EVER BE ABLE
TO EAT ANYTHING LIKE THAT AGAIN?

OH, WHO KNOWS.

BUT I GUESS
IT WOULD HARD

TO GET OUT
ON THE STARTING BLOCKS

IF YOU WEIGHED 250.

YEAH...

WHENEVER THE WORD "TRACK"
COMES UP

YOU ALWAYS SAY SOMETHING LIKE,
"YEAH..."

YEAH...

I DON'T KNOW.

I LOVE BEING ON THE TEAM.

I LOVE ALL THE ATTENTION
THAT WE GET.

I LOVE THESE SHORTS.

PEOPLE LOOK AT ME
DIFFERENTLY.

LIKE THEY ADMIRE ME.

IT'S GREAT, ISN'T IT?

YEAH, IT IS.

I EVEN LIKE RUNNING.

I JUST CAN'T TAKE THIS WORK

AND I SPEAK FOR
MY LEGS AS WELL.

I'M NOT LIKE
YOU GUYS.

I GET OUT THERE

AND EVERYONE SEEMS
SO DEDICATED

AND ALL I COULD
THINK ABOUT IS

"WHEN IS THIS
GOING TO BE OVER?"

LET ME SHOW YOU
SOMETHING.

SEE THIS?

MM-HMM.

IT'S A PIECE OF THE COACH'S
FAVORITE SHIRT.

EACH OF US HAS ONE.

HE GAVE YOU HIS SHIRT?

NO, WE TOOK IT AND CUT IT UP.

WHY DID YOU
CUT UP COACH'S SHIRT?

BECAUSE WE CAN'T STAND HIM.

WE WANTED TO
DO SOMETHING

TO SHOW HIM
HOW MUCH WE HATED PRACTICE

SO ONE DAY, WE TOOK HIS SHIRT

AND WE DROVE OVER IT
WITH A TRACTOR.

BY THE WAY, THAT'S NOT PLAID.

THAT'S A SKID MARK.

WAIT A MINUTE.

I THOUGHT YOU GUYS
LOVED PRACTICE.

LOVED PRACTICE?
ARE YOU CRAZY?

WELL, EVERYONE SEEMS
SO INTO IT.

IF YOU DON'T,
HE JUST GIVES YOU MORE.

YOU'RE TELLING ME,
MR. HIGH HURDLES

THAT YOU HATE PRACTICE
AS MUCH AS I DO?

YOU THINK YOU'RE THE ONLY ONE?

YES.

YOU DO HAVE
A LOT TO LEARN.

OH, VIRGIL,
THIS IS INCREDIBLE.

YOU DON'T UNDERSTAND.

I WAS SO UPSET.

I WAS ALMOST THINKING

OF QUITTING THE TEAM.

EVERYONE THINKS OF QUITTING.

EVEN YOU?

EVERY DAY.

LAST YEAR, I PREPARED A SPEECH.

WHAT STOPPED YOU?

I MET A GIRL WHO LOVED GUYS
WHO RUN TRACK.

VIRGIL, I HAVE LOST
ALL RESPECT FOR YOU.

OHH.

HERE.

WHAT IS THIS?

YOU'VE EARNED IT.

NOW YOU'RE REALLY
A PART OF THE TEAM.

WELCOME.

THANKS, VIRGIL.

I FEEL MUCH BETTER.

ANY TIME.

WELL, I GUESS I SHOULD
BE GOING TO BED.

OHH.

I'M STILL HUNGRY, THOUGH.

WANT TO GET A HOT DOG?

VIRGIL, THAT WOULD BE
IRRESPONSIBLE.

WE'D BE BREAKING TRAINING.

YEAH, YOU'RE RIGHT.

I WONDER IF THAT PIZZA PLACE
IS STILL OPEN.

LET'S GO SEE.
