Cocoon (1985) Edit

A boat just left the dock. David!

A box of candy or something.

A great night to see that total lunar eclipse.

A lot of old people aboard, a kid, some in wheelchairs.

A maritime oath that forbids me

About 100 centuries ago, we had an outpost here on Earth,

Across a crowded room

After what happened today.

Ah!

Ain't a son of a bitch in the world

All in $100 bills?

All kinds, all races. Come on.

All memories, all music station

All nationalities, all creeds!

All right!

All right.

All right.

All right. Cast it out there.

All right. I'll tell you, but you can't let the others know

All right. I'm gonna tell you the truth.

All right. Let's call it.

All right. Let's meet the aliens.

All right. Let's start here.

All right. You know, not even for the boat.

All this time to energize the pool.

All we need to do is to get our friends and leave.

Alma, let me give you a hand with that.

Alma, you're overreacting.

Alma...

Alma's not gonna believe it.

Already have.

And collected $225 on our big money memories jackpot.

And do you know where?

And go...

And he said to me... Dutch Schultz!

And he's not happy at all.

And I still can't believe it Love conquers all

And I'm thinking of blowing the whistle on the whole goddamn deal.

And if you don't, I can still get you there.

And if you try to eat my face off or take over my body,

And if you've got a latitude and a longitude, I can get you there.

And it's Joe Joe taking the lead.

And my mother came out on the porch, and she was screaming...

And never made anything as beautiful as that mouton collar.

And now we've come back for them.

And now we've come back for them.

And now we've come back.

And our first tune is a special arrangement of Dancing in the Dark.

And saltines.

And straighten this whole thing out.

And take your embarrassing beach towel with you.

And that kind of bothers me.

And that's good.

And that's what we call dancing

And that's what we call dancing

And that's what we call dancing

And that's when a guy gets scared.

And the grief associated with death before.

And the new civilizations that we'll be traveling to

And the only thing that would happen

And they didn't give you any other medication at all

And they won't have baseball games,

And they won't have hot dogs,

And they won't have that kind of stuff. And...

And tour guide, deep sea fisherman,

And we might even have a swimming suit for you.

And we wouldn't be able to visit you, either.

And we'll take it in as is condition.

And you wouldn't even kiss my cheek without asking.

And, of course, they really want to sell.

Anybody have second thoughts?

Anyway, it's all up here.

Are any of us?

Are on to some kind of rejuvenation.

Are you all right?

Are you all right? Yeah.

Are you nervous?

Are you sure I shouldn't try it, Jack?

Are you talking about last night?

Aren't you?

ART: A party. I'm for that.

ART: Bess said we should take it to the National Enquirer.

ART: Come on. Let's go, shall we?

ART: I mean, I have to share everything.

ART: I saw this, but I fell asleep. So I don't know how it ends.

ART: Joe, Joe, Joe. Everybody.

ART: Set it over there.

ART: The clubhouse is closed, boys.

ART: Well, gentlemen, mission accomplished.

ART: What are you talking about? A mistake about what?

ART: Who cares?

ART: Wouldn't be fun if we had permission.

ART: You have marvelous form.

ART: You'll be a new man, Bernie. Believe me.

ART: You'll like Pillsbury. He's a fine fellow.

Art. It's so late.

As long as there's a swimming pool, we have everything we need.

As long as you live.

As our base here on Earth.

Be a good boy. Mind your mom.

Because I knew you stole it.

Because I really like skin on a woman.

Because things have been so good between us.

Before the first upheaval.

BEN: Come on! Get out of there!

BEN: Come on! Let's go. Let's get a hold of this!

BEN: Come on. Get a move on.

BEN: Come on. Open the fucking door!

BEN: Here you go, Alma. Your little cart.

BEN: I got a couple of things I...

BEN: L, P, E, O.

BEN: Nobody likes being scared.

BEN: T, O, Z.

BEN: What are you doing here?

BEN: What the hell is that?

Ben?

Ben.

Ben. I said one.

Ben's right. I'm in.

Bernie, Bernie, Bernie.

Bernie, his parents are divorced. His mother works.

Bernie, please.

BERNIE: Come on! Quick!

BERNIE: Let's get out of here. Come on!

BERNIE: Rosie.

Bernie.

Bernie. Bernie, shut up.

Bernie. Bernie!

BESS: Girls, that's wonderful.

BESS: Here we go. And...

BESS: Hit it. That's much better.

Better advise the commander.

Blood pressure? NURSE 1: No blood pressure.

Blue steel. Cat couldn't scratch it.

Bonner, you got my goddamn money now?

Boy, that's cold.

Boy, you know, I thought I'd been around. I...

Boy, you know, I thought I'd been around. I...

Boy! Talk about wet blankets!

Bring it around.

But don't get weird on me, people.

But I promise you

But I'm gonna do a whole cleanup, a whole sanitation thing.

But I'm not ready to go home yet.

But I'm not taking half.

But if it's a choice of only six more months here with you,

But if you screw it up for the rest of us...

But if you'll just relax...

But if you're thinking that I'm just out to nail you,

But in a pool?

But they're lovely.

But you stole it for me.

But you'd also be teachers.

But, believe me, Jack, we will still get our friends back.

But, young man, remember, road signs aren't made that small.

But...

By the way, right here is where a crime is being committed.

Bye, Bernie.

Bye, Bernie.

Bye, Dad. Bye, Mom.

Bye, Grandpa.

Bye.

Call the police.

Can you help me?

Can you take them back with you on that spaceship?

Can't you think about anything else?

Captain, cut your engines.

Captain, this is Lieutenant Spark of the St. Petersburg police.

Cast off those lines.

Check it out.

Check the bus stations and the airports.

Christ, I don't have to listen to you.

Clear. Now.

Come into the police boat with her.

Come on in here.

Come on over here.

Come on, Bernie!

Come on, come on, come on, come on.

Come on, come on! Everybody out!

Come on, come on. Let's go, let's go.

Come on, Jack.

Come on, Kirk. That money will bring you no pleasure!

Come on, ladies. Pick them up. Very good.

Come on, man. It's the great unknown out there.

Come on, Mr. Lefkowitz.

Come on, Rose.

Come on, Rose. Come on. Let's go.

Come on, Rose. Stop right there.

Come on, you worn out old pusses.

Come on! Bring that one around here, okay?

Come on! Come on!

Come on! Out of the water! Get out!

Come on! Start! Go!

Come on.

Come on.

Come on. Come on. Come on.

Come on. Go with us.

Come on. God...

Come on. Live a little.

Contact Miss Lerner in her office by 1:00 today.

Could we talk to one of their friends?

Cowardly, cowardly custard, can't cut the mustard!

David, I'm very worried about Grandpa and Grandma.

DAVID: Yeah, I am.

DAVID: You know, Grandpa, you're right.

David!

David! Come on. Please.

David! David!

David! David!

David! You come back here!

David? Staying up for the eclipse?

David.

David's mother wants him to

Did I ever accuse you of being dishonest?

Did you and Grandpa have a fight today?

Dig, dig, dig, dig!

Do not fear.

Do the Susy Q That's good for you

Do you ever want to do anything about it?

Do you think it's safe?

Do you think there's cocaine in that pool?

DOCTOR: All right. Let's start with line three.

DOCTOR: And the next line.

DOCTOR: Is there a pulse? NURSE 2: No pulse.

DOCTOR: Okay, let's get a board under her.

DOCTOR: Well, Joe, I gotta tell you,

Doctors don't know everything.

Does that mean that you have to do it, too?

Does this kid have a home or what?

Don't count on it. I may turn professional.

Don't do that!

Don't make yourself look any more ridiculous than you already are.

Don't threaten me, Joe.

Don't touch me.

Don't touch you? What's the big deal?

Don't use that stuff. Use prunes.

Don't worry, Jack. You'll know when I'm around.

Don't worry, miss.

Don't you worry, Bernie. We'll take the fall for you.

Dumping Max was the smartest move I ever made.

Everyone else said, Use the North Pole. I said, No. Too cold.

Everything's happening so fast.

Ex Lax. You got my Ex Lax.

Exactly.

Except when they were all over me.

Excuse me.

Express affection?

Face eating, Jack?

Fall, fall. That's another thing.

Fellows, this is the life.

Fine?

Fine. Give it.

Fine. Just look.

First constellation Needful simulation

For every action

For St. Petersburg and Tampa at the top of the hour.

For the tragedy at sea which has taken the lives

Forever?

Friend, 100%. I'm your friend.

Friend. Friend! That's right.

Full forward. Wheels up.

Get back! Get back!

Get out! All of you, get out!

Get out. BEN: Let's get the hell out of here.

Get the goddamn police!

Get the police, you idiots.

Give it a rest, Rose.

Go get some sodas and sandwiches and stuff.

Go to the other side of the pool.

God damn it. It's ridiculous.

God! God, I think it's broken. God damn it!

Gonna make a personal appearance?

Good to see you again, Jack.

Goodbye, little man.

Got a little game of 20 questions for you.

Got it right here. I got it right here.

Grandpa, wait for me! I want to go, too!

Grandpa!

Great, great.

Guy brings a beach towel. You believe these tourists?

Guy throws up on the deck, he doesn't catch one fish, gives me half my money.

Half? What do you... What is this half?

Happy birthday! Many more! Thank you.

Has to know we're in that pool.

He can come in for a minute.

He made me promise.

He said, Rose, where the hell did you get that sweater?

He'll be chasing them dolls till his dick rots off.

He's always here.

Hello, Ben. Walter.

Hello, David.

Hello, David.

Hello?

Here we go. And...

Here you are.

Here you go, Bernie. Hope you feel better.

Here you go, Pops.

Here you go, you bloodsucker. I have nothing to live on.

Here you go.

Here. Divide it up, girls! Divide it up! Divide it up!

Here. Have fun, have fun, my friends! Have fun!

Here. Here's half your money.

Hey, are your extraterrestrials

Hey, Art. Art.

Hey, Bernie. Come on.

Hey, fellows! Fellows! Fellows!

Hey, grandpa!

Hey, hey. Whoa!

Hey, I'll be fine.

Hey, I'm an orphan. Do I go around asking for breaks?

Hey, look.

Hey, they're not even melted yet. Wow.

Hey, wait a minute.

Hey, watch out. Those dolphins look pretty horny.

Hey!

Hey! Enjoy, enjoy!

Hey! Hey!

Hey! Somebody's coming!

Hey.

Hey. Are you up for a swim, maybe?

Hey. Hey, hey, hey, hey.

Hi, Jack. I'm Walter.

Hi, Mom.

Hi, Pillsbury. How you doing, pal?

Hi!

Hi.

Hi.

Hi.

Hi. Hi, Walter. Well, come on.

Hi. I'm Jack Bonner. How you doing?

Hit it. Yes, yes.

Hiya, Grandpa.

Hmm.

Holy shit.

Home.

Honestly, it's free.

Hope the water isn't too cold.

How about that?

How do you do?

How you guys doing?

Hurry.

I accused you of being from another planet, but an honest planet.

I always liked chocolate.

I appreciate it.

I begged you not to go.

I believe him, and I'm scared.

I came by to tell you I'm sorry, Walter.

I can keep a secret. I won't tell anybody.

I can read road signs.

I can... I can help you.

I can't tell you.

I could use some real men here.

I didn't expect it. It's such a surprise.

I didn't...

I do get scared a lot.

I don't believe it, and I'm still scared.

I don't believe we've met.

I don't care how healthy you think you are!

I don't feel a bit bad about sneaking in their swimming pool

I don't know about anybody else, but I'm going.

I don't know how to do it. I didn't buy it. It's just beautiful.

I don't know if that's such a good idea.

I don't know what I'm going to do.

I don't know what's going on here.

I don't like her at all.

I don't like the kids my age.

I don't mind cheating her a little.

I don't need any other glasses, young man.

I don't see anything wrong with it.

I don't think it's fair.

I don't want any of your threats.

I don't want to live forever

I estimate our position is right about here, at this point.

I fall, I break my hip, I can't sue anybody.

I feel great!

I feel so nice today, I can't tell you.

I got mine on.

I got no license.

I guess I'm just less gullible than you guys.

I guess I've been ridiculous. I am sorry.

I guess me and your grandma are going away, David.

I guess we can talk price later.

I guess your ride's here, huh?

I had never experienced the pain

I hate to go visiting without a plate of cookies,

I have more horse sense than you'll ever have.

I have my pride.

I have never seen anything like this before in my life.

I have to do something for her. She... She...

I hear it's a great place, a lot of fish.

I hope you're not gonna take your skin off,

I just don't want you to forget how much we care

I just love to see you eat your words, Doc.

I just pretended to be stupid, and I guess I really was.

I just wanted to tell you I hope you find what you're looking for.

I knew. I always knew.

I know something is wrong.

I know you're just trying to help your people.

I know.

I like to hang around you guys.

I love you, too.

I love you.

I may have a drink or two.

I mean, I can't promise, but I'll try.

I mean, I can't.

I mean, I think this is a serious mistake.

I need a brew. You want something cold?

I need to talk about with you.

I prefer to do that myself. They use so much chlorine.

I promise you. Can I have a word...

I said put down that cocoon!

I say, So then you haven't.

I still can't believe I did that.

I think I got them below me.

I think I'm better off not knowing.

I think I'm better off not knowing.

I think so.

I thought I was the only one.

I thought maybe you guys had got the hell out of here already

I use both.

I want to get down right along this fault line.

I want to go.

I want to talk to you two!

I want to thank you for being a fine guide and a good friend.

I want you all to consider very carefully

I want you to look me up, okay?

I was in the navy.

I was just thinking to myself.

I was talking in general.

I wish I could help you. It's just too late.

I wish we'd get a bite.

I wonder if they'll have fishing holes there.

I, for one, don't believe this alien crap at all.

I... I know we let you down, and I'm really sorry.

I... Oh, my God! I can't believe it won't start!

I'd just like to get to know you as a human being.

I'd never see you again?

I'll be with you in a second, okay?

I'll bet they made a pickup out at sea.

I'll get a line. No pulse.

I'll give you everything I've got.

I'll see you tomorrow.

I'll sleep like a baby.

I'll try not to dump anything on you tonight.

I'll watch him. You watch him. You watch me.

I'm a citizen, too.

I'm a citizen. I believe in this country,

I'm an experienced scuba diver

I'm calling the police.

I'm gonna assume mental illness.

I'm gonna bring you closer to my life

I'm gonna bring you closer to the river

I'm gonna go ahead and assume goodwill.

I'm gonna go talk to them.

I'm gonna kill that son of a bitch!

I'm gonna miss them.

I'm gonna miss you.

I'm gonna touch you Feel you with a thunder

I'm happy you're going to live, Joe, but I've got to live, too.

I'm in the water, far from shore.

I'm not calling no cops because a couple of geezers

I'm not gonna be able to bring them back.

I'm not gonna have anything to do with them.

I'm not involved with anyone.

I'm not like the other women you've known.

I'm not naming names... Jack...

I'm not promising I'll get wet.

I'm not scared! Get going!

I'm okay!

I'm positive.

I'm ready to take on the world!

I'm really gonna miss you.

I'm so sorry.

I'm sorry, Alma.

I'm sorry, Bernie.

I'm too old for that kind of thing.

I'm trying to save 20 lives, and I'm running out of time.

I'm trying to save his life.

I'm very happy, Bess.

I'm wide awake.

I've been diving. It's all right.

I've been to all of the stars in the sky

I've bowled with a lot of women.

I've driven everything on wheels all my life.

I've never had anyone close to me who died.

I've never heard of that. Is that some sort of delicacy?

I've never seen it roll in so fast.

I've put all kinds of people on this boat.

Ice. Get something cold on it.

If I could catch one more great, big fish...

If my husband said he saw people from outer space,

If that wouldn't be too long for you.

If we see any, we'll send them over.

If we're lucky.

If you and Rose would just come with us, you'd feel differently.

If you don't want to do it for yourself, that's fine,

If you don't want to do this for Rose,

If you're not gonna be with me.

If your friend Ben Luckett decides to jump off

In 1948, Dutch Schultz walked into my store,

In an ocean, fine. There I expect to see plenty of rocks,

In case you're wondering... Silly Putty.

In the kitchen. You're in the kitchen.

Into St. Petersburg

Involved?

Is there a pulse or a blood pressure?

Is this land? What is this?

Is we'd end up renting someone else's boat.

It don't matter.

It happens.

It may need some oil. I haven't dusted in a while,

It was in Coney Island. I was nine.

It was pretty heavy for a nine year old.

It's a breeze. Everything's fine.

It's a complete remission.

It's a heat sensitive map. I've seen these.

It's a... Well, it's a miracle.

It's amazing.

It's at night.

It's embarrassing.

It's in that pool over there, right?

It's just that a lot more things bother me than other guys.

It's next door, isn't it?

It's nice and warm, Bernie.

It's not the first time.

It's not the pool. It's not the water.

It's possible.

It's probably gonna take you an eternity to forgive me.

It's right over here.

It's the pool. It's having an effect...

It's Thursday.

It's too late.

It's very fulfilling.

It's... It's hard to know who to trust, isn't it, Jack?

Jack, I can't tell you what's inside there.

Jack, I'm sure you're bothered by what you've seen,

Jack, sit!

Jack, this is the most important thing we've ever done.

Jack, we'd better take a look down below.

Jack, you could turn us in, or perhaps you could do something else

JACK: If this is foreplay, I'm a dead man.

JACK: Make sure you get the feed line. Okay? 'Cause it's gotta be...

JACK: Only when I need it, right? Only when I need it.

JACK: Right.

JACK: Right. Now listen, tell me, nothing's gonna fall off right now, is it?

Jack. Don't let them board us.

Jack. Jack, sit down.

Jack. Of course we're gonna pay you for the boat. We're honest.

Jesus!

Jesus...

Joe, you'll never bowl another game like that

JOE: Age isn't everything.

JOE: Because you're a hardhead, Bernie.

JOE: Hey, Pills. Come on in.

JOE: I can't do this alone!

JOE: I wish I had the guts to go in.

JOE: Sit down!

JOE: We have no business being here!

JOE: Well, I guess we shouldn't be greedy about it.

JOE: Well, maybe they'd give us permission to use the pool.

JOE: What's happening suddenly?

JOE: What's the word on what?

JOE: You really are an old bastard.

JOE: You want it heated, too?

Joe!

Joe! Don't! Joe! Joe!

Joe! Joe!

Joe? Is Joe above the law? BEN: Yeah.

Joe.

Joe. Joe. Try to relax.

Just after 4:00.

Just get your ass off my boat, man.

Just get your ass off my boat.

Just put it down and back away, please.

Just south, right here.

Just tell them that as long as they're

K, O, C, F, E.

K, O, C...

Kirk, come on. You're not actually gonna take all my money, are you?

KIRK: Not on your life.

KIRK: Not on your life.

Kitty, are you married?

Kitty, I took a maritime oath,

KITTY: Well, we do owe you an explanation.

Knows our schedule.

Ladies, ladies, let's just go and see for ourselves.

Lay this one down outside and come right back.

Let her come with us just this once.

Let me hear it.

Let me hear it.

Let me just look.

Let me tell you about what Dutch said...

Let's get a pulse, let's get a blood pressure.

Let's go home. Get in, darling.

Let's go!

Let's go!

Let's go! Go, go, go, go, go! Let's go!

Let's go. Let's go.

Let's have a party!

Let's move! Come on! Quick!

Let's move! Come on! Quick!

Let's waste no time.

Look at that.

Look at the old fogey!

Look at us. We're three harmless old men.

Look at you goddamn people.

Look up.

Look, Ben,

Look, I don't know what you're thinking,

Look, I don't want to get rough with you, you know,

Look, Kitty, next time you're in town,

Look, look, look. We gotta go into the club!

Looks airtight.

Looks like you got these things pretty well covered.

Mary, you have your nerve calling me gullible.

MARY: Ben!

MARY: That's it.

Matter of fact, there's a few of us could use a little of it.

Max couldn't do anything with his hands,

Max never stole anything for me,

May the force be with you!

Me, too.

Me, too. I was just thinking.

Me?

Me? No.

Men should be explorers, no matter how old they are.

Modification Love and variation

Molecular reaction

Mom and Dad, where are you going?

Mom? Dad?

Mom? Dad?

More than fine.

Morning. Morning.

Mutual affection

My eyes are very sensitive.

My God, I'm telling the truth.

My God!

My goodness. Look at this.

My gosh.

My parents finally came back for me.

My pleasure. Bye bye.

Nature dealt us our hand of cards, and we played them.

Nerita peloronta.

Nerita peloronta.

Never had a mishap.

Next line.

No Italian food. Makes me fart.

No matter what we say or do.

No wonder your wife has no use for you.

No, no.

No, no. Don't. Do not touch it.

No, no. Last night was fine.

No, no. Never.

No, we don't.

No, you don't owe me anything.

No, you go on home.

No! But you're the stupid one.

No.

No.

No.

No.

No.

No.

No.

No.

No.

No.

No.

No. Forget I ever mentioned it.

No. I came to say goodbye.

No. Just put... Put the towel down.

No. No, no.

No. No. Thanks, Jack. We're doing fine.

No. See, my friend, Joe Finley, he's got cancer.

No. They would never survive the flight.

No. Yeah.

Nobody's gonna board this boat.

None of this is bad for America, I guess.

Not a lot of torture. You know, not... But some.

Not a thing, Doc.

Not a thing.

Not all up there, pal.

Not by me, because I'm being carried.

Not even our kids.

Not life as we know it, but in the spirit everlasting.

Not me.

Not Walter, maybe, but...

Nothing like this has ever happened to me before.

Nothing like this has ever happened to me before.

Nothing. Zip.

Nothing's changed, Alma. Go home, Joe.

Now the life force is completely drained from the water.

Now you just run the pointer. All right?

Now, at the end of the game,

Now, Jack, I want you to listen to me very carefully.

Now, we were able to evacuate everyone except for my ground crew.

Now, you drive careful, Walter.

Now, you went to the goddamn doctor. Now, what did he say?

NURSE 1: Eighty over 50. DOCTOR: Keep pumping.

Of course I do.

Of course not.

Of course you're honest.

Of course.

Of course. I love you now, and you can't keep up with me.

Of these men and women in what should have been

Off the floor, grandpa.

Oh, my God.

Oh, my God. What do we do?

Oh, my.

Okay, gentlemen?

Okay? Yeah.

Okay.

Okay. I'll go get Mom.
