As Wally and I, no matter how high put... Mental his band could not to the next grade. But when mixed with me, our children are mediocre.
Except for our Almita. I believe that computers are doing a great job. I bet in the next century there will be differences... Between anyone on the planet. Ooou. - Why not penalized? You have said, should put weight on the legs. I can not believe it. - Is so unbalanced. Look at that. The kids do you like sports. Yes. Wally and I think on December 3 for the ceremony. Do you like then? - A wedding in December. Yes, no problem. And how big would the party? - Well, the law only allows...
Up to 200 guests, but most of our friends... Only invited 100, so you better get that dough, lest... Believe that we are 'showing'. - Sure. What school do you attend? Harding. Do you like? Everyone thinks it's funny because I'm stupid. Some guys are idiots. You should not feel bad... Not being stupid is your fault, not mine as being smart. We can not all be mediocre. My science teacher says that someday will be. Well, I think you're not that stupid. Thank you. And you're not that smart.
Do not stay up late, boys. Okay. - Good night. I can not believe you go to get married. Me neither. - Want it, it's pretty, right? Yeah, well. Seems to be good.

Jeanne. - What never finished... Just followed. - Why? Garth. - I forgot. �Bridgette? �Class? Anyone? Harrison. - Do not remember. Okay, Harrison, tell us. In previous recessions, when the economy began to recover... And production increased, unemployment decreased, but in the great recession... With new technologies, fewer employees were needed... In all sectors, and with so many people out of work... Usual economic recovery, was impossible.
Exactly. For 2018, only 15% of the population had work. U.S. was divided into 2 factions... Prosperous elite, skilled and educated... And the majority was unemployed and abandoned... What happened next? Garth. People who had no job, was very unhappy ... And began to create problems, planting bombs in protest... Killing people and stuff. - Correct. And that was the beginning of what we now call... Class. - The second American Revolution. Right, and that's it for today. Harrison, stay a moment.

Double or triple time, or mental activity slows... And intelligence decreases drastically. Is it dangerous? - Not at all. The surgery is done through... two small holes in the skull. You will be discharged in a couple of days, most. We will have to discuss it with his father. Ms. Bergeron, surgery is not optional... The Rules 'equalization' make it mandatory for cases like this. Maybe we could adjust the band mind again... The surgery sounds so, permanent.
Sorry, but no. You have a very special mind, Harrison. Really extraordinary. Any barrier electronics we use, your brain breaks. Great. - Tell me the truth, Harrison... Would not you be a little relieved if you were like everyone else? It's lonely being smart. When could schedule the surgery? Tomorrow... is too early. - No, you are well. We have a wedding to plan. Can you talk to Harrison alone? So... What are your plans for tonight? Probably sit and watch TV.
Why? - Well, it's your last night with your... Natural brain, a brain exceptional. Have you ever heard of the houses to think? Yes. Have you been to any? Van's against the law. - Technically, yes... But while you your band mind set, the authorities tend to... Ignore. - Have you been to any? Occasionally but only to investigate. I thought you would find what your mind is capable of. It will be your last chance. Maybe. If you decide... go... Here is the address of a in the neighborhood.
It is clean and well managed, can tell you that I... I sent you. Number 28 Oak Street. But what... - Hello Dad. Hi son. - Is the game good? You bet, very well 'matched' tied for the third quarter. Base I think Green will win. Even with earplugs, Smith not a good quarterback. Everything okay at the doctor? Yeah, well. Dad, I can ask you something? Sure son, of course you can, you know. Are you okay? I think... Everything is going well for me, you know. I'm going to graduate someday...
I'm going to marry a very pretty girl... Although I have not much to talk with her... But it's good, and I really like... And I think we mediocre children, and all that. But heck, tomorrow I'll be poor also... Really bothers me that it will stick in my brain... Is that okay? Dad. Is that okay? Hey, hey, sorry son, I had a buzz... I lost track of what I spoke. I'm just saying that if I expected a great future... Why I feel like a loser every time I think about it?
Did you see that pass?, Smith is really good. Dad, forget the game, need to talk to someone. True, true, I'm sorry son. Where were we? Today went to the doctor, right? - Dad does not matter, forget it. Are you sure you're okay? - I'm fine. Yeah? Dr. Einsenstock gave me this address. - Oh, what is your name, dear? Harrison, Harrison Bergeron. - You are welcome, Harrison. You want a drink dear? No Thanks. Want to go straight to the point, huh?
Okay, is there a particular field want to explore this afternoon? I do not know. - Well, let me introduce you to some... Of our host. This is Rebecca, she specializes... In nineteenth century German philosophy, Heigel, Schopenhauer, Nietzsche. This is Look, Quantum Theory. Jennifer, Cubist and post-impressionist art. Hi. Phillipa, is our expert in chess. - Chess? I like chess. - Very good. Phillipa, this is Harrison. Hello. - Hello. Phillipa will take you to a more private place.
Right. O, Harrison... It is customary to pay before. - Oh, sorry. How much? - $ 50 for one hour of chess. If you need intellectual stimulation extra, you can buy... With Phillipa. Sure Einstein never accepted the principle of indeterminacy... From Heisenberg, Einstein said 'God does not play at random.' What hysteria was linked to sexuality, caused... Commotion in his contemporaries by 1920 it was known that the doctors... Here. Sit.
Harrison, right? - Yes. Harrison Well, are there any openings you want to explore? What do you mean? - You know, Sicily, Queen's Gambit... Ruy Lopez... What do you think you talking about? No, do not know. Why is that lady talking about... Additional intellectual stimulation? If you want I can play without my band mind. But that's illegal. - But we're alone here. What if the police come? Any alarm? How do you know you do not delatar�? Would not you, right? - What do you do that?
Probably... I would shoot. You are brave. - If you betray me, there is a phone... In the room below, call the police. Let's start. You will not be me if you use that band mind. I manage alone, thanks. I guess do that often. Can you stop acting strange and start playing, please? Right. I have no way out, I'm in check in 3. Right. This combination sacrificing the tower... It was beautiful. I never thought that this game could be so beautiful. 'Re Good, you know Why do not you take the band mind?
We still have 15 minutes. I'm fine. You're not gonna win. - I know, but... ...Sometimes you learn more losing. - Do not be so aggressive, wait a minute... Try to play like a woman.

Tomorrow I will corrective brain surgery. Corrective brain surgery, I love that term. You'll never be the same. I know.

Go over there. - Come on. He did not. - I'm sorry, miss, no exceptions. He did not. I like it. You hear me? He did not. He did not. I like it. Do you hear me? His band. Bring it. Hello, Harrison. What ruined. Actually you were very noble. What happened? Surgery Is it over?
No surgery, Harrison. But I injected something. It was only... you here. Where? - Administration Center. Do you? Really sorry about last night... Although you did not follow the script. - What script? Who is he? - John Klaxon, Officer-in-chief. Nice to meet you, Harrison. No, no, no, you must stand still. This. Drink this. I know... this is very intriguing to you. Try to explain, as short as possible. As you know, from the second revolution, USA has tried...
Extensively to establish an egalitarian society... A society of mediocre people, but the problem is... That to run a society, requires certain management functions people... Poor is unable to develop. Do you mean the senators, or the president? Not at all. Anyone with average intelligence or less... Could handle those charges. But the people who oversee the economy runs the trains,... Airlines, communications, factories... Unfortunately, those people can not be mediocre.
Surprisingly... we are not very many... How is it, Fewer than 3 thousand Something like that?... - Yes. You were brought here because... Want you to be one of us... I? Our recruitment department has followed you for 2 years... Your intellectual abilities are quite substantial. The house thinking, chess... was a sort of test? Of course, we brought so well. This is a secret facility... People do not know where it is, whether there... The idea that real equality is achieved promoting inequity...
Would be something a 'little' difficult for them to understand. If you want to continue with your previous life, you'll go as numb as you arrived. How to know what not tell people about this? Return is an option, but not without consequences. Surgery we are talking about is real. It has been practiced for most potential recruits yesterday. What happens if I join? It will tell your family and friends that you died during surgery. And begin a new life, but you will have to sacrifice...
You will live here permanently, you can not have children... But there are rewards... You have the freedom to use your brain. Harrison... It is difficult to assimilate, but think about this... Tenth of the U.S. Population, 35 million people... Died in the war of the second revolution and its consequences. If we do not remain vigilant, all happen again. Can you live with that guilt? 'Il Take you to a quiet place so you can think.
¶ Scream-Mails
35 million. - The numbers are just details. Well, here you will live. - This is, uh. Yes. Do you like the decor? There crazy in the 1990s, lasting about a week... Called 'New Age', I think these are some of the furniture. It's different. Can we play? - If... The next day, but here are some books on chess... Prince, read it. There are TV shows and old movies laser discs in so you can see... And in the morning will show you the place. - Okay. Must find that you excel... See you tomorrow.
Thank you. What time is it? Okay, I sensed that this would happen. Have 10 minutes to shower and dress. The movies were great, Casablanca and the 'Rosebud'... Who was the old man in the King Lear? King Lear... - No, the actor. Macaulay Culkin. - Sure, sure. Quadrant 4 is sealed at 21 hours. Again, quadrant 4 be sealed at 21 hours. A nice to meet you, young, came at a good time... Do you want to elect the next governor of Connecticut? Excuse me? - We were about to elect the...
Next governor of Connecticut, politicians in the past used the choice... Instead of selection, we now know that no one stands to be governor. People never thought made a difference with your vote. All I managed was to choose different people each time... To return not tyrants or something. Our process makes it just as well, but we saves time and money. Makes sense. - Then do it. Me? - Sure. No problems with committee members. What should I do? - Well, the names of all adults...
Of Connecticut were assigned a random number on this computer... Simply choose a number of to eight digits. Do it. Elected official to elect the enter a 8 digit code. Wochuk Genevieve, New Haven, married, 3 children, waitress... Hello? - I speak with Ms. Benavieve Wochuk? Si. - One moment please. Give the news... Come on, you chose it. Your turn to tell. Hello? - Hello. Ms. Wochuk. - Yes? Is an honor to inform you is the new governor of Connecticut. Me? Really? - Yes, Madam. What a surprise.
Jenny, go get Dad the bathroom... I will be governor, Douglas, not throw it at your sister's hair. How soon to rule, dear? Someone will contact you, to view details of your presentation. Am I going to fix my hair? - Of course. Goodbye, Governor Wochuk. - Goodbye and thank you. Douglas stops... Lovely, aument�mosle the band a bit mental. Yes, Lord. Once you heard the horse called Phar Lap? The best racehorse in history.
The problem is that he always won, and people do not gamble, or going to the track. So I put weights until he could no longer win. Almost killed him, but balanced the game, and that we do here... We balance the game. Think fast. Begin to balance human games before the end of the last century... Just before the revolution. A guy named 'Jordan', now retired, came back and won effortlessly. First it was sports, but then we balance all. This band invented the mind. - I saw that on TV.
Any previous lack of this kind? No, it's clean. Does not seem intentional, only env�enle a letter to scare him. If it was an accident, did the right thing, you should always give your best... Otherwise not know about penalize you. I do not want to rush, Harrison, but we should be at 1... In administration and must arrive on time. Right. Last night, seeing those programs I realized that... ...Everything looks like in the 1950's. Is it intentional?
Everything is intentional. U.S. Was happier in that decade, at least... People who lived at that time remembers well, and... After the revolution, administration redesigned the country as well. As a homesick alien... but it works. Hey Harrison, how's it going? - Pretty confusing. I think your mind can bear this confusion. Soon you will have questions sure that me... When you come and see me anytime... Yes, Lord. - Without a mouthful, sure.
Today there are fewer than 100,000 police officers nationwide... Less than 3% of what it was before the revolution... Excuse me for interrupting. - Okay, it's Connie Wang, my assistant. Harrison Bergeron, the new recruit Phillipa. How are you? - Nice to meet you. I have been talking to Governor Leslie for half an hour... Y refuses to cancel the execution... Maybe you can convince. What I can do, Connie People make the law... We are only here to advise and help manage... .
This is the first execution under the new law... Proposed by parliament in Florida, applying the death penalty... Traffic offenses. Francis Narrows is about to pay with his life... By illegally turning left. Beside me is Lorraine Newbound... Leader of the Association of Miami penalties against 'No' capital... Mrs Newbound, you are under this new law. Absolutely. Although should include parking fines. How bad parking. - A crime is a crime... Why should we pay to build prisons?
Death to all offenders. - Thank you, Ms. Newbound. As you can see, a black bag is placed in the head... Francis Narrows. The system is activated. And the power... That's funny, before the revolution, when I was a child... Almost no executions... There were discussions among experts on how to fight crime... More prisons, more police, gun control, better rehabilitation... Guidance Counselors, training programs, nothing worked... But... When mediocre people, took control...
They realized they would find like fighting crime... So they decided to fight only against criminals. Traffic Violations. - Do not be unfair, Connie... It worked. There are plenty of police fat sitting on... Stations, watching soap operas in the country. Mr. Shockley I saw a lot of TV, and every day he runs. Most are repeats, if not promoted... This affects the advertising dollars, and we want people to see... For the deterrent value...
Almost no crimes out there. - Maybe we should kill them all. That would take care of crime forever. Do not fuck with the will of the people, young Harrison. We discussed this with Connie all the time... She said it is better 100 guilty free... One unjustly executed. But I do not know. If those 100 who saved, killing 2 innocent... The good we have one less. I mean, it sounds insensitive but... Is only a matter of numbers. Jaque. - Still awful to see. Do not see it.
I think Shockley is the only one who enjoys seeing them. Welcome to life without the band mind. Yes. Ever play chess with Alma? - Not only with my brother. Miss your family, right? - Yes. Something like that could not talk to them... But there is a biological bond that unites us. Believe I hate knowing that I'm dead. They just remember, Harrison. It is normal... I go up to their mental bands in cases like yours. This does not relieve me. Sorry, that was stupid.
What about your family? - Oh, mmm... I think I killed, I grew up here. Looks like a tie. All that work lost. - Not so... It was an incredible game. And you're amazing. I'm sorry, I must go. Harrison... Before... Queens passed between us, there was a position... Where you could do mate in 4. You saw it, right? - No. That was at the house of to think. That was for the draw, but if you do it again I'll kill you. That's just because if... Now the other.
Harry Now tell me, what banana cake you prefer?... Does the mine or your mother? Both are excellent, but sorry, my love... I must say why. .. Yours is the best. Oh, Harry. Mom. - You told me last week... My banana cake was better than him it. Sorry mom, but... - Fair... At least I know I'm where... ...if you think yours is better... ...= = Enjoy. What do you think Jennifer. - Uh, well... Clearly the concept and idea are nothing new... The script is mundane, action... mediocre.
I like it, do very well on Tuesday after 'Neighbors.' I agree, there were some jokes smart, but surely the station... The deleted, ask 13 chapters. What did you think of Harrison? Was horrible. - If they did a great job. See I can not believe this. - All saw it... Even when started TV was down... The least common multiple... But sometimes quality programs snuck... But we, unlike, conscious decision... Not show things that could be appreciated by all...
In this way, we eliminate completely quality... We are very proud of that. - Very proud.

Yes, Lord. - Well... Are you OK? - Yes. Well, well, now I can not promise reach you at the place you want... But is there any administration department that interests you? I can be useful on TV. - TV... Is the thread that holds the fabric of our society... The TV programming is a big responsibility.
I understand. Let's see if I can talk with some contacts. That is fantastic. - I went for coffee, you come with me? Thank you. Harrison... Your ability scores... They are amazing. Absolutely amazing. Sugar. - Thank you. And in your evidence of ideology... A bit erratic. But what think of our little world? Have been creating a society fair, and they are doing... But? Go on, want to hear. But it is difficult to understand than to have equal out... We do what we want here.
This happens only because we were born with certain mental abilities... Not equal, but at least is equal opportunity... While forget the sacrifices, no contact with our previous life... No marriage, no children. That part is hard to accept. - I know... It takes time accept. Any other concerns? Well... Dime. - It's just that... Every time I hear good music, or see a great movie... Is that our society will never more thing... I know the constitution says the government should us all...
Equal, but... - Are you sad? Me too I am sad, much. Do you know this music? Is Beethoven... The 'Emperor Concerto'. You imagine how I feel... Knowing that I strive for a world... Where no Beethoven never born. But it should be... Not a word in the constitution... Should only be... Look at this... Oh, god. The Bible tells us... Do not want the alien... But just as we do. It's in our genes... damn. Not only want their homes, their land, things... Appearance also, talents, intelligence...
And when we want what belongs to others, hate... And when we hate, what happens just saw. For thousands of years, this has happened. So if I choose... Between this and remove what you saw... I myself shoot Beethoven. Here is a copy, Harrison... Look at it, analyze it well. And your plans on TV... I will accept you. Come on, try it. Open, please. It's very simple... These machines reproduce the programs... And these buttons transmit it to all U.S... Nothing really complicated.
Tell them that this section should be careful... That is all very neutral. Hey, this is a great time... Y has not been eliminated. Check... When your child reads to the class... Let's delete the sound to not... To avoid problems with text, and I do not... Make sure that when you stand children, all measure the same... And when they leave, if the dog is waiting outside...

Immediately. Sir? If. - I've been thinking of ideas... For a program. - Have you caught the bug from TV? It gives children something educational... If invented this magical place... Puppets, talking animals, , games and things like that... But all will be equal.
Whatever... I thought that the idea would be fun to learn... Instead of learning the constitution as such... Could turn into a song... The same with the alphabet. Make the task easier teachers. What about the children they see the program? How. - Harrison, we can not force... People to watch TV, if children who watch the program... Learn more, we will raise them their mental bands. This destroys the idea. No one should learn from the TV.
Leave discs in my desktop before you close , tomorrow the review. No problem. Administration will make an analysis in the semantic seminar... ...starting in 15 minutes. Repeat... Administration will make an analysis in the semantic seminar... ...starting in 15 minutes. Mr. Chairman, I believe it is imperative is granted a reprieve... In this situation. No, in any way. - But Mr. President, the Prime Minister... Only asks another 24 hours, he just wants parliamentary approval of...

I remind you, Mr. Reynolds... Policy that nasty business, Americo-Canadian... So brutal and simple as... Work. The rest of the world has learned to use the genuine words... President that 'They can not fuck with us.' This is different, the Prime Minister is in a difficult position... Disputes with Algeria across borders...
And discomfort in his army. President does not understand... Complexity of the problem; He can be a mediocre, but... Other leaders are not... People are sophisticated and subtle, have to be able to... Deal with them, be patient and diplomatic. Lord, Prime Minister of Morocco accepted the terms... The ultimatum of the President. You were saying? What. - �s this place... It's crazy... President McCloskey was about to destroy Morocco... Newman thought it was funny...
Is an idiot. - There should be... We could fix this... Just because everyone is equal, we should perhaps... Help the middle, instead of making that half dumbest. The more intelligent people is... The more efficient, and so more people far behind... And that the angry, and Bingo., Start a revolution... Why we have a suppression economic department... What a fool I am... - That's the beauty and horror... This place... I have thought and advance all... The future has been crushed, and corrected.
Wait, does that include us? Are we fixed? Let's go. - What? Irons, escape... We can do when go home to think... Can sneak, and crossed into New Mexico Latino... As, are worse than us. But are people really live. Perhaps are real lives for us. Finish as we are now... Everyone end well. Selfish, try to fix things... The people out there... are like babies. My parents seem to babies, are responsible for them. There is nothing to do. Hell, even they know who need help.
You're so complicated... you brought me here, remember? What about all that of envy and equality? Now you want me to go? We must go, Harrison. Look, no... I can explain now, but... You must trust me. - What if we get caught? What if? I will not use the band mind. Just think about it. Okay, I will. Will it soon? No, well you Victor, you're just nervous. Dr. Eisenstock, I said... What people here bands off his mind. Think you can? I... - No need to... Was just luck you excuse me a moment?
Tell me about your family. Pretty normal, I think... My parents, 2 sisters stupid... A lot of aunts and uncles... What about you? Where is your family? Hello? Phillipa �? Hello? Jesus, I scared. - Tell me everything you know... Where did. - Who, what time is it? Do not play Harrison, tell me where it was. I do not know. - Look at me. Do not know. Dress. I can not ask you to do... What I would not have done if you'd asked me. I leave the center for a while, but...
It's not your fault... I love you... everything is very confusing, but... Do not worry about me, I'm fine... Y... soon we'll be together... I promise. Where is Shockley. - It was last night, sir... There was a leak in recruitment. Pay attention, this is very important... No one talks to her or Shockley before me... If you know anything about them... Well, where is it? - The we... How? - Nothing complicated... The city is far away, we the station...
The doctor said it will disoriented until the night... What does that mean? - I had to drag the son of a bitch... Of Eisenstock out of bed this morning. Which maldit reason...? - Stir in the brain. Under whose authority? - I do not need anyone's permission. It is a standard to do that leaking... And at first we killed, remember? You better go... Mr. Shockley. Where is it? - In there. Oh, my god. Hi... Do not worry honey, 'll be fine. 'Il Fix. �Fix what? Nothing, nothing.
The doctor says I have the flu brain... But it's nothing serious. Could have ice cream when I leave here. Course. What you want, anything. Are you okay? - No, I'm not. Why did they do that? Only went for 6 hours. Did they believe that everything was going to tell the world about your little empire? The surgery was a mistake, when you enter here is forever... You can not leave. - That sucks. Hardly improves, we will. I'm afraid that is not possible. What is your problem?, She would not hurt...
You may want to go to the zoo, or traveling in a bus... Always be controlling everything. Well, still alive, you can still love. Like you know what is love. I know enough, she is my daughter. What? Is not prohibited have children here? It is not, abortion is mandatory. But we were close to the director, and sent my wife to Dallas... A 'special mission'. Died before bringing it back... And Phillipa. - Was adopted... Monitored and recruited when he was 9 years... Been here all the time.
She does not know... How could he do that? - Because I believe in what we do. I believe this with all my strength. Would be hypocritical to accept children here... We are not trying to create a superior race ... But they are, and you are a hypocrite. The system is perfect... Harrison. But sometimes people who run not. Arrangements, take her to Dallas when improves. It will take... a couple of weeks. Just do it. I get fired if the break... - Thank you.
Will you do your own show? - Something like that. The time now is 18:45. Hi Jerome, let me. - Hello, Harrison. Open up please. Can you help me with this? What are you doing? - Stay away, Jerome. Listen kid, give me the gun... - Stay away. Come go, go. - I will not... Out of here. - Harrison, give me the gun. Harrison Give it to me. - You want it, right? Harrison. Shit. Shit. What did you think? What do you mean? Refers... - Hush, Shockley. Seemed upset? - Sure it is. Shut up.
Do not know, it's hard to tell if someone points a gun. What can I do? - I give you cancer. Where is the technical was in the cabin? It's out there. - Leave it there. Not a word to anyone about it. And bring Newman. John... - Get lost. Hello, Harrison. Klaxon Hello administrator. - What do you think? Top American the third revolution, maybe we'll do well... ...This time. A revolution?, Yourself Why? How you do that? I'll talk to the country, across the country.
Harrison, listen... I think we can stop this. I can make up that you did to test our security. I can fix it. The privileges of power, that is as egalitarian. So this is it... The idea that 20 years ago intervened to save Phillipa. Is that a crime? - No... The crime is to sacrifice 300 million of minds, in the name... Justice and welfare, as you violate the law when it suits them. Now is 300 million and one, because his daughter has porridge instead of brain. This was a tragic human error.
But that does not hinder what we do here. What we do here is screwed up marriages computer... ...garbage electronic control... Not made them all equal, did the same, and that is very different. They are happy, Harrison, are happy. Yes, but I'm fucking unhappy. And you know, I like, it's real, I feel alive. All admire what you're trying to do... Hell, no one here who has not thought of before... But just not possible. Harrison, if you open the door, I can not guarantee your safety.
And then you wake up the country, I can not guarantee yours. Open the door, please. I'm sorry, it's time Start the show. If. - I am the chief administrator Klaxon... I want to talk with the president, please. If. - I'm John Klaxon, give me your husband... Please. Can you call later?, Are watching your favorite show... And mind being interrupted. I fear it is a national emergency. Okay, but not going to like. Harry see, is something of a national thing. Hello? - Mr. President.
Better be important, Terry is playing by the large pumpkin. Mr. President, there is a young, rebellious young... Just grab the central control room of the TV. Trick him and kill him, teach to not fuck that shit. I fear is not that simple... We go through solid steel... Not think so. Hi all. - Just... Sorry to interrupt your program on Saturday night. Do not try to change the channel, 'm in them all. My name is Harrison Bergeron, and work in a place called...
Administration Center, where, without their knowledge... Manage their lives. Bring on the lasers. I seized illegally of this control room... Because I want to destroy the government... And the whole system of equalization forced. Now... The people who devised this system, had good intentions... Wanted to get rid of envy... Which leads us to do horrible things... And they did, which is great. But what should give instead? Do not even know, right? Well, while I'm in the air...
Try to show people what can do. What you are able to too. But I understand... ...must do something they said is bad and wrong. They will have their band removed mind. Please Take it off now. Not bad, and if it were... Why us administrators let us go without them? Thus, we do not use. I do not care, just take them there, now. S�quensela, I bet that will force any government... To wear them again. What I want to see now are videos and albums...
Facts before the revolution, athletes, musicians, singers and dancers... And actors and comedians... I warn you, these people will envy... I do. I think you will find that see and hear... Provokes a little envious. The first... Is an incredible saxophonist, have never heard something like that... The music called Jazz. If you have not removed the band mental... Do it now, please. Unit 1, on the way. Unit 1, in position. Shit. Identification of palm disabled. - Keep your position.
Already disorders have occurred? No, not yet... The army and police are on alert across the country. Air. The next video is is a film made to... Early twentieth century, by one of the best comedians of history... Buster Keaton. It's great, but quiet... So if you forgot how to read, and I know many are passed... Looking for someone to read for you. 'I have no money, and I threw.' 'The mountains kiss the sky,'. The waves are woven in each other.
What flower would be forgiven if menospreciase his brother? Sunlight adheres to the earth and the moon kissing the sea: 'Why this sweet job, then if you already not you kiss me?'. A nice poem, right? Before we go... I want to say a word to... People I know and must be surprised to see me here... My family and friends think I'm dead... Like everyone here in the administration... That's because... Here realized that if you knew that... This place existed... privileged people.
You do not hold out. I hope so... Whatever... Hello Dad... The Packers finally become the Super Bowl this year... It's great... Y... Hi Garth. How are you with chess?... Did you find someone to win? Do you Mom, how are you? I thought a lot of you at Christmas... I love the snow... I miss you... I hope we can be together very soon... As people complete as a family... No bands mental without governments... Only people... The End. God, I love that movie... I do not know how long I have...
I do not know if I can hear. - How soon? Very soon. - I hope you hear me. I hope that the bands are removed and destroyed mental... I hope you understand what I tried to show ... Look... The most important thing about a person... Is what differentiates them from other... And that is what will make another person fall in love with you... I know that, because since I got here... I have the fortune of having loved someone... And I know all about her that are special...
And different, and I love them. And that love, real love... It's the best in the world... And when they took away the envy... I took the love too. I hope you have time for another... But I assure you. I do not like much the idea you're going to kill... What I would like is kill you. Unit 1, entering. Stop the subject, repeat... Stop the subject. - Understood. Secured area. The unit head is ordered by the team 5... I repeat... The unit head is ordered by the team 5...
What happened? - Almost nothing, Harrison... The transmission... Do people brought their bands mental. - If... And then the relocated. Even after seeing... - All those beautiful movies? I'm afraid so. To be honest... I went a great help... For many years I have had several questions... About depriving people of... The beauties they've shown... But really was depriving the... Anything, some people felt excited... Impressed, and agradadas for your videos... But only 1.3%.
Only 1.3% - With a margin of error of 0.2%. The general public... Did not notice any difference, for them is just TV. But I will not operate, so you need to kill me... None of these 2 things be necessary... What do you mean? - Although 1.3%... Believed what you said about feelings... And true love... There are 3 million people could cause problems... You get spare them and us... ...A big problem. - How? Do you remember the radio version of the War of the Worlds... Orson Welles, in the 1930?
When did believe that we were invaded by Martians? Can appear on TV and say you did something. That it was a hoax? - Or a work that you played. My family and friends know that lied by saying that I died... To all who knew you, will increase... The intensity of their bands mental threefold. You are a bastard. - Harrison... It was no coincidence... That you have recruited Phillipa... From the beginning I knew you were going to be a leader...
That was a bit of me in you... I will not be here forever... What I mean is that you were chosen. Does she know? - No... But Phillipa has good taste... I assume they got together... Have I did what? Follow together. But he was wrong. - If about many things... But the most important... There is no way to live in peace... And you Harrison, have threatened the peace... It's time to fix what you did. I see Phillipa. - She's not here. Send someone to fetch it. - She's not here.
Was sent elsewhere. - Son of a bitch. I live with that, and so can you. Phillipa live a simple life. And you can live a successful. You can help people. I do this little favor... And see that you regularly report on the life Phillipa. And now begins the 'Show speaking with Charlie.' Hello and welcome to the show speaking with Charlie... We are young the last few weeks... Made the most incredible program of TV history. Applause for Harrison Bergeron. Do you know Harrison?, Many people...
Myself included, thought that what we saw this Saturday night... was real. We almost died of fright. Sorry if I did, my intention was to entertain. So everything was invented, like in the movies? Exactly. - What ever you locked in the cockpit? No. So there is a secret headquarters... With mysterious people who control everything and has special privileges? Of course not. So you do not want people to take off their bands mental? Of course not, all know what happens...
When people remove them, and no actor want to lose audience. But one thing still worries me... You, are a great actor, perhaps 're acting now... How can we be sure that was not real? Had it been true I would not be alive, but I'm, right? True, I had not thought of it that way... This is a test of truth. Sure, Charlie, all they saw was not real... But what comes next is. Got a gun. - Do not do it, son. Do not do something so stupid... Oh, my god, committed suicide. - What is happening?
No. - You, the camera 2. Camera 1, come out. - Music, Music. Phillipa is pregnant. Out of here... God... Poor bastard... What happened? - I'm not sure... A sad thing, I think. I attend mom is Todd. Hello. - Hello, What is it? Guess I got. - What? From Time 1 to 4. - Fantastic, and how did you do? I changed was Alan Wineman for hours 5 and 6. But in those leaves Buster Keaton. - The changed only a few days. Would you like to see them? - Sure. Is not your mother home?
Yeah, but she does not understand anything. And guess what, says Alan his cousin in Cleveland... Has the video when the guy was suicidal, come in summer and it will bring. Great.... Though... I do not want to see that... I say... he seemed a great guy. Yes. This is called Jazz, think they will like.
