I absolutely, positively have to get to Memphis tonight.
Pilot Jack Can't help you. Try UPS.
Hey, with this extra headwind, are we gonna be able to push it a bit and make the sort?
Pilot Jack We'll do our best.
"Our best", huh? Now Gwen, is there something wrong with our doctors that Jack here keeps getting certified to fly? Aren't you concerned?
Pilot Gwen I'm terrified, but a girl's gotta do what a girl's gotta do.
That's the spirit there. Relentless is our goal, relentless!
Stan What do you expect from the guy who stole a crippled kid's bicycle when his truck broke down.
I borrowed it. I borrowed it, but I love that the kid's now crippled.
Stan So you missed the last truck by two minutes, huh?
Two minutes. Actually, it was less than that.
Stan Well, the plane wasn't that heavy; you could've added fuel, picked up the speed and made up the time.
It was about the trucks. Today's truck was two minutes late, tomorrow's will be four minutes late, and then six minutes late, and then eight minutes late, and the next thing you know, we're U.S. Mail.
Stan Yeah, well, all's I'm saying is, if you'd gotten all those trucks on the plane those Russkies would be walking on water right now. [to Gwen, while pouring some wine] Hey, now, don't-- don't give me that look. It's just grape juice. Right, Chuck?
Yeah, it's like a 1992 full-bodied grape juice.
Pilot Gwen I see no evil, hear no evil, speak no evil.
Stan Well, we'd offer you some but, you know, somebody's got to fly the plane.
Pilot Gwen Yeah, well, I just say no, right? Listen, Stan, I've been meaning to ask you. How's Mary?
Stan Oh. Uh, well... we really don't know anything yet.
Pilot Gwen Mm-hmm.
Stan Uh, she went to the doctor yesterday, and uh... it hasn't me-- metastasized as far as they can tell right now. It's just kind of wait and see.
Pilot Gwen I'm so sorry. Would you tell her I'm gonna come by and see her on my next layover? I just want you to know, Stan, we are all just thinking about her and you, and just blessings.
Stan Thank you, Gwen, thank you.
Stan [Four weeks after being rescued at sea after four years on the island, Chuck is being flown home to Memphis on a private FedEx jet with Stan]
Forty-five minutes. [hands Chuck a Dr. Pepper and two cups of ice] One Dr. Pepper, two cups of ice.
Stan Well, here's the drill. Um, plane pulls in, we get off, and there's a little ceremony right there in the hangar. Fred Smith will say a few words, all you have to do is smile and say "thank you", then we'll take you over to see Kelly.
She's actually gonna be there, huh?
Stan Well, that's what we have arranged. I mean, if you're sure you want to do that...
Oh, yeah, yeah. Yes. I don't know what I'm gonna say to her. What in the world am I gonna say to her?
Stan [sighs]
Chuck, Kelly had to let you go. You know? She thought you were dead... and we buried you. We had a funeral and a coffin and a gravestone, the whole thing.
You had a coffin? What was in it?
Stan Well, everybody put something in. You know, just a cell phone or a beeper, some pictures. I put in some Elvis CDs.
So you had my funeral... and then you had Mary's funeral. Stan, I'm so sorry I wasn't around when Mary died. I should've been there for you, and I wasn't. I'm so sorry.
