Tootles

Lost... lost... [to Peter] I've lost my marbles.

Tootles

Have to fly, have to fight, have to crow, have to save Maggie, have to save Jack... Hookie's back.

Moira Banning

Your children love you, they want to play with you. How long do you think that lasts? Soon Jack might not even want you to come to his games. We have a few special years with our children, when they're the ones that want us around. After that you're going to be running after them for a bit of attention. It's so fast Peter. Just a few years, and it's over. And you are not being careful. And you are missing it.

Tinkerbell

You know that place between sleep and awake, the place where you can still remember dreaming? That's where I'll always love you, Peter Pan. That's where I'll be waiting.

Pockets
[pressing on Peter's face to see if it's really him]

Oh, there you are, Peter!

Rufio

Rufi-OHHH!!!!!!!

Lost Boys
[repeatedly]

Bangarang!

Peter Banning

What's the deal? Where's the real food?

Tinkerbell

If you can't imagine yourself being Peter Pan, you won't be Peter Pan, now eat up.

Peter Banning

Eat what? There's nothing here. Gandhi ate more than this.

Peter Pan

No, no! Please stop! Why are you doing this to me? [falls in the flower garden]

Tinker Bell

Rufio, you're the best with a sword. Please teach him. We gotta make him remember.

Peter Pan
[Daffodil sniffs at the face. Sunflowers sniffing. Daffodil sniffs at the crotch.]

Excuse me! [Hits the daffodil. Daffodil sneezes.]
Peter Pan and Lost Boys: Help me!
Peter Pan and Lost Boys: Not you! [Peter Pan with arrow shot by rear end]

Peter Banning
[Enter. Nursey - Continuous] [Peter pours himself a double scotch.]

Sorry. Parachute. Firefly from Hell. Big damn bug!

Tinker Bell

Oh, it is you! It is! A big you. It's not bad you're big. I guess it’s not that your big, you were always bigger than me. But now, maybe this means you'll be twice as much fun.

Peter Banning

Moira!

Tinker Bell

Oh, Peter. What fun we'll have again! What times! What great games!

Peter Banning

You're a little....

Tinker Bell

Fairy.

Peter Banning

A p…p…p…

Tinker Bell

Pixie. And if less is more, there's no end to me, Peter Pan.

Peter Banning

Peter Banning.

Tinker Bell

Pan.

Peter Banning

Banning.

Tinker Bell

Pan.

Peter Banning

Banning.

Tinker Bell

Well, whoever you are, it's still you. Because only one person has that smell.

Peter Banning

Smell?

Tinker Bell

The smell of someone who's ridden the back wind, Peter. The smell of a hundred fun summers with sleeping in trees. Adventures with Indians and pirates. Oh, remember, Peter? The world was ours! We could do everything or nothing. All I had to be was anything ‘cause it was always us.

Peter Banning

Oh, no. It's finally happened. I'm having a total nervous breakdown.

Tinker Bell

Come on, Peter, follow me and all will be well.

Peter Banning

Or I'm dying. I'm heading towards the white light. I've left my body. See? There's my house way down there. There are my feet. Oh, my God. Where are we going?

Tinker Bell

To save your children.

Peter Banning

How do you know about my kids?

Tinker Bell

Everybody knows. Captain Hook's got them and you've gotta fight him! Let's fly! [Peter sneezes, in tears, after Peter fails to fly] It is true, then. You did grow up. I drank poison for you. You used to call me "Tink." Have you forgotten everything?

Peter Banning

Are you in there, little bug?

Tinker Bell

I'm not a bug. I'm a fairy.

Peter Banning

I do not believe in fairies.

Tinker Bell

Every time someone says, "I do not believe in fairies"... somewhere a fairy falls down dead.

Peter Banning

I DO NOT BELIEVE IN FAIRIES! [Tinkerbell falls down the stairs of the dollhouse unconscious] Oh, my God, I think I killed it. Are you alive, little bug? Look out!

Tinker Bell
[she slapped his finger, she wasn't dead]

Clap your hands, Peter. It's the only way to save me.

Peter Banning

Clap....

Tinker Bell
[he starts shivering and then starts clapping softly]

Louder.

Tinker Bell
[he claps loud then she shouts]

Louder, Peter!

Peter Banning
[he starts clapping louder and starts shouting]

Okay, I'm clapping. I'm clapping!

Peter Banning
[and Tinkerbell starts getting up]

Oh, God, you're alive!

Tinker Bell

All right. Now, who am I?

Peter Banning

Uh, You're, um.... [lightly chuckles] You're a complex Freudian hallucination having something to do with my mother. And I don't know why you have wings, but you have lovely legs and you're a very nice tiny person. What am I saying? I don’t know who my mother was, I'm an orphan. And I've never taken drugs. Because I missed the '60s. I was an accountant.

Tinker Bell

Guess again.

Peter Banning
[Tinkerbell pulls on the floor rug and makes Peter fall down, flat on his back, on a sheet on the floor]

Whoa! Oh, look, stars.

Tinker Bell

That's right, Peter. Second star to the right and straight on till morning.

Tinker Bell
[Tinkerbell flies off with Peter folded into a sheet]

Never Land.

Tinker Bell

What about the name Hook? Is that how you want to be remembered as a bully? Or as the great warrior who defeated a heroic Pan? [pause] One week and I'll get him in shape, and you can have your dirty old war!

Smee

It's a trick, Captain! Let me blast that buzzing vixen to Pixie Hell!

Captain Hook

Smee.

Tinker Bell

You promised people the war of the century. Your whole life has been building to this. Mortal combat, glory. Hook versus Pan!

Captain Hook

That is not Pan. Two days.

Tinker Bell

Four. Bare minimum for a decent Pan.

Captain Hook

Three. Final offer.

Tinker Bell

Done.

Captain Hook

And you'd better deliver, Miss Bell...... or no amount of clapping will bring you back from where I will send you.

Pirate Crew

Ohh.

Captain Hook

Hear me, men. I've decided that the so-called Pan will return in three days to commence the arbitrament of the sword. Smee, translate.

Smee

In three days we’re gonna have a war. A battle between good and evil, to the death.

Pirates
[cheering]
Peter Banning

Aah!

Tinker Bell

Peter!

Noodler

Whoops.

Peter Banning

Help me.

Tinker Bell

Peter!

Peter Banning
[grunts, screams, groans]

Snow! What...? What? Help. HELP! Get me down! Help! Help!

Tinker Bell

Oh, you're alive!

Peter Banning

Oh, get me down! I believe!

Tinker Bell

Lost Boys! Lost Boys! Wake up! Pan's back! Lost Boys! Lost Boys! Wake up!

Lost Boy

That was my pillow!
Don't Ask: [stammers] I'm.. I'm.. I'm up.

Tinker Bell

Wake up, you sleepyheads!

No Nap

Pan’s back! Pan’s back! Pan!

Lost Boys

Pan's back! Pan's back! Pan!

Peter Banning
[groaning]
Latchboy

Pan! Pan!

Thud

Who's the shrub?

Lost Boys

Bangerang! Pan?
Don't Ask: That ain't Peter Pan.

No Nap

He's old.

Latchboy

He's fat!

Thud

Not so fat to me.

Too Small

He's an old, fat grandpa man.

Lost Boys

Rufio! Rufio! Rufio!

Peter Banning

Oh, That is so dangerous. [Rufio lands] That's enough! [after Rufio draws his sword] Okay, mister. All right. The show's over. Now you put that thing away! Now put it down before you poke somebody's eye out. [the Lost Boys all laugh] You're not old enough to shave. What are you doing with a sword? Kids flying around! This is an insurance nightmare! What's this? Some sort of Lord of the Flies preschool? Where are your parents? Who's in charge here?

Peter Banning
[the Lost Boys all point at Rufio.]

No. No, Mr. Skunkhead-with-too-much-mousse…you are just a punk kid. [facing a mob of the Lost Boys] I want to speak to a grown-up!

Rufio

All grown-ups are pirates.

Peter Banning

Excuse me?

Rufio

We kill pirates.

Peter Banning

I'm not a pirate. It so happens, I'm a lawyer.

Rufio

Kill the lawyer!

Lost Boys
[in unison]

Kill the lawyer!

Peter Banning

I'm not that kind of lawyer. [high pitch] I've been shot! [normal voice] Help! Help me, somebody! No- no! Please stop! Why are you doing this to me?! [falls in the flower garden]

Tinker Bell

Rufio, you're the best with a sword. Please teach him. We gotta make him remember.

Peter Banning
[A daffodil sniffs at Peter's face. Other sunflowers are now sniffing at Peter with more daffodils sniff at his crotch]

Excuse me! [hits the daffodil, it sneezes] Help me!

Lost Boys

Help me!

Peter Banning

Not you.

Lost Boys

Not you! [Peter Pan with arrow shot by rear end]

Peter Banning

Helmet! Oh, my! A wall.

Tinker Bell

Lost Boys, stop! Stop it!

Lost Boy

Play!
Don't Ask: Play.

Rufio

You're dead, jolly man.

Tinker Bell

He can't do those things. He can't even play simple games Hook has got his kids, and I've got three days.. three days to get him ready to fight. And I need everybody's help.

Too Small

Peter Pan's gots kids?

Rufio

He can't fly, fight or crow. So.. if any of you says this here scug ain't Peter Pan.. ..cross the line.

Peter Banning

Hi. What? I'll be right back. What?

Tinker Bell

You are embarrassing me.

Pockets

Oh, there you are, Peter!

No Nap

But, Peter....you've grown up. You promised never to grow old.

Lost Boy

Peter..
Don't Ask: His nose got real big.

Too Small

Well, welcome back to Never Land, Pan the Man.

Rufio

Don't listen to that fairy and that brainless fungus. I got Pan's sword! I'm the Pan now! You think this guy's gonna take it from me? Rufio?

Pockets

Wait! If Tink believes, maybe he is.

Rufio

Are you gonna follow this drooler against Capitán Hook?

Pockets

What's he doing here if he's not Peter Pan, huh? He don't look happy here. And who are them kids Hook's got? Give him a chance!

Peter Banning

Those are my kids... .and Hook is gonna kill them unless we do something. Help me. Please.

Yeah, come on! Give him a chance!

Rufio

Be Bangerang, old man.

Lost Boys

Be Bangerang!

Peter Banning

What are you doing? How does this help me get my kids back? What do I have to do next?

Thud

Next, time to fly.

Lost Boys

Just think happy thoughts. Come on, Peter, think happy thoughts.

Tinker Bell

All you need is one happy thought, Peter, just one happy thought and it'll make you fly.

Peter Banning

I got it! Not being in this slingshot would make me very happy!

Latchboy

He's going up! He’s going up!

Thud

He's coming down!

Peter Banning

Gotta fly. Happy thought. Happy thought, happy thought, happy thought, happy.... One great, big happy thought! Less is more. Less is more. I can...! "Tootles. Wendy. John. Michael. Peter."

Tinker Bell

Be careful, Peter. You're a lot taller than you used to be. Well, say something. Do you like my dress?

Peter Banning

You look beautiful. What's the occasion?

Tinker Bell

You are. It's a welcome-home party.

Peter Banning

What happened here?

Tinker Bell

Hook.

Peter Banning

Hook.

Tinker Bell

Burnt it when you didn't come back.

Peter Banning

A Kiss. Wendy. This is Wendy's house. Tootles and Nibs built it for her. I remember. Wendy used to sit in that chair.

Tinker Bell

Yes.

Peter Banning

But it wasn't there. It was here. We used to sit here while she'd darn socks and tell us stories. She slept here. Tink, your apartment was right here.

Tinker Bell

Yes.

Peter Banning

Little Michael in his basket bed right here. John.

Peter Banning
[Peter rushes to the other side where he found a small teddy bear.]

Teddy. My Teddy. Mother used to put him in the pram to keep me company I remember my mother. I remember her.
[flashbacks begin from his childhood. As a baby, he was listening to his mother discussing the future.] Peter's Mother: You can be sure, very fine schools indeed. First, he will attend Whitehall, then Oxford And of course.... after graduation, he will prepare for a judgeship in the highest court...making time for marriage and family and all of that. Just like his father.

Tinker Bell

Isn't that what grownups want for their children?

Peter Banning

I was afraid because I didn't want to grow up because everybody who grows up has to die someday. So I ran away. Tink... you came and you saved me. You brought me to Never Land. You taught me to fly. But I was still a little boy, and I missed my mother. So I decided to fly home to my very own window. But it was shut. They'd forgotten about me. I found other windows to visit, ones that weren't shut closed on me. That's how I met Wendy. I chased my shadow in her nursery. I expected my shadow and I would join together like drops of water.

Young Wendy
[Young Peter tries to get his shadow back, but he fails doing so.]

Boy. [Peter hears her and gets up] Why are you crying?

Young Peter

What's your name?

Young Wendy

Wendy Moira Angela Darling. What's yours?

Peter Banning

I came back many times for Wendy, always in the spring.

Young Wendy

Peter!

Peter Banning

And Wendy kept getting older... and older. And then I came back the last time.

Wendy

Peter, I can't come with you. I've forgotten how to fly. I'm old, Peter. Ever so much more than 20 I grew up a long time ago.

Young Peter

No, no, no... you promised!

Wendy

I have children of my own now. They have children of their own. That's my grandchild, Moira asleep in the bed.

Peter Banning
[Young Peter looked and notice his first love, Moira, in her bed.]

When I saw her lying there sleeping....at that moment something changed in me forever.

Young Peter

I shall give her a kiss.

Wendy

No. No, Peter. No buttons, no thimbles. I couldn't bear her heart to be broken when she finds she can't keep you.

Young Peter

No. I mean a real kiss.

Tinker Bell
[Tink from the outside watches but was sadden when Peter kisses Moira. The small thimble fell to the ground. we switch to the present]

I can see why you have trouble finding a happy thought. So many sad memories, Peter.

Peter Banning

Bye, Teddy. Not Teddy. Daddy! Daddy.

Moira
[Cut to a memory of Jack's birth.]

Peter, you're a daddy.

Peter Banning
[memory]

Hi, Jack.

Peter Banning
[voiceover]

I know why I came back I know why I grew up. I wanted to be a father.

Peter Banning
[memory]

I'm a daddy.

Peter Banning
[Cut back to present day, Peter finally got his happy thought.]

My happy thought. I got it. I got it! I found it! [laughs] I lost it. [screams]

Tinker Bell

Just hold that happy thought, Peter!

Peter Pan

Tink, you in there? Are you sad?

Tinker Bell

No, I'm neither. Please go away.

Peter Pan

Oh, you're sick. Maybe you need a Band-Aid. Or a thermometer! Thermometer make it all better. That's how Nibs made the Wendy lady better.

Tinker Bell

Oh, no, Peter! It's not about that!

Peter Pan

Yes, it is! Nibs put the thermometer in her mouth. Felt all better. Tink, don't we have the greatest adventures?

Tinker Bell

Do you remember your next great adventure to save your kids?

Peter Pan

Kids? Peter Pan's got kids?

Tinker Bell

Why are you in Never Land?

Peter Pan

Well, that's easy. To always be a little boy and have fun. I like this game. Ask me another one.

Tinker Bell

Oh, dear me! I did it.

Peter Pan

Tink, look what happened! You broke your house. You're humongous.

Tinker Bell

This is the only wish I ever wished for myself. This is the biggest feeling I've ever, ever felt. And this is the first time I've been big enough to have it. Peter, I wanna give you a kiss. No, I mean a real kiss. I love you, Peter Pan.

Peter Pan

I love...her.

Tinker Bell

"Her" who?

Peter Pan

Mo-- Moira! I love Moira….and Jack and Maggie. Jack and Maggie....I have a plan. Tink? Come on. You gotta come.

Tinker Bell

When it's all over, you'll leave and never come back again. What are you staring at, Peter? Save them. Go save them. You silly a**, go. [Peter sneezes]

Lost Boys
[Peter and Jack fly off the ship and toward the Lost Boys and Maggie. Peter embraces his kids and the Lost Boys cheer for him.]

Peter!

Peter Pan

Lost Boys.

Lost Boys

Victory Basquet! Victory Basquet!

Captain Hook
[An enraged Hook storms over to the edge of his ship and yells to his mortal enemey.]

Peter! Where are you going? Come back here and fight me! Or I'll find you wherever you are! Bad form, Peter! Come back!!

Maggie
[Peter ignores his immature attitude and walks away with his kids and the Lost Boys, holding Jack's hand and carrying Maggie who yells back at the evil pirate.] [upset]

You need a mother very, very badly!

Captain Hook
[Smee, now full of treasure, tries to make his gateaway]

Smee! Follow me!

Smee

Just moving your personal, sir.

Captain Hook

Peter, I swear to you, wherever you go, wherever you are.... I vow there will always be daggers bearing notes signed "James Hook." They will be flung at the doors of your children's children's children. Do you hear me?

Peter Pan

What do you want, old man?

Captain Hook

Just you.

Peter Pan

You've got me, James Hook. [flies back] Pan "The Avenger" is back.

Captain Hook

And the Hook is waiting, Peter Pan.

Peter Pan
[Smee helps Hook take off his coat and fights Peter with sparks crackling from their swords, Peter backflips off the ship and Hook follows him in determation.]

Put up your swords, boys. It's Hook and me this time.

Captain Hook

Prepare to die, Peter.

Peter Pan

To die would be a great adventure.

Captain Hook

Death is the only adventure you have left.

Peter Pan
[they fought roughly]

I remember you being a lot bigger.

Captain Hook

To a 10-year-old, I'm huge.

Peter Pan
[the battle continues as the youngsters look on]

No pain, no gain, James!

Lost Boys

Pan!

Peter Pan

Good form, old man.

Captain Hook
[Hook brutally knocks Peter down and puts his hook on the grinding wheel to sharpen it. Hook grins with pure evilness and anger at the terrified Peter as he mocks him whilst ready to finish him off.]

You know you're not really Peter Pan, don't you? This is only a dream. You'll wake up, you'll be Peter Banning... a selfish man who drinks too much... who's obsessed with success... and runs and hides from his wife and children.

Too Small
[Jack, Maggie, the Lost Boys and Tink encourage him]

I believe in you.

No Nap

I believe in you.

Pockets

I believe in you, Peter.

Maggie

I believe in you.

Jack

You are the Pan. You're Peter Pan.

Tinker Bell

I believe in you... Peter Pan.

Jack
[this gains Peter some courage and with mighty effort, he shoves Hook off with his feet, knocking him over and making him lose his sword. Hook was about to grab it when Peter stops him and picks it up for him. Peter offers Hook's sword back. Hook takes his sword but suddenly slices Peter's arm with his new sharpen hook. Peter yells in pain as his arm bleeds]

Bad form!

Latchboy
[Jack was about to go against Hook when the Lost Boys hold him back]

Jack, stop!

Peter Banning

Tink? Tink? Tink?

Sweeper (Smee)

Hello. Having trouble with the missus? You will have, by the time you get home.

Peter Banning
[sees Tinkerbell on the Peter Pan statue]

Tink.

Tinker Bell

Say it, Peter. Say it and mean it.

Peter Banning

I believe in fairies.

Tinker Bell

Do you know that place between sleep and awake……where you still remember dreaming? [Peter nods] That's where I'll always love you……Peter Pan. That's where I'll be waiting.

Peter Banning

Ouch. Nana! Oh, give us a kiss! Come here, you drool machine! Maggie, Moira, Jack! Tink? Wow! Brad! Hi! Have you been holding this long? Uh-huh. I'm incredible! Yeah. Never Land. Uh-huh. Lost Boys. Jim Hook. Duel to the death. I'll fill you in later. Listen, I'd love to chat.... but I'm gonna climb a drainpipe now. Why? Because I ran out of fairy dust. If not, I would've flown up. "Why?"

Jack

There were pirates--!-

Maggie

And monsters there. Just like you said!

Peter Banning

Maggie, Moira, Jack. Granny Wendy. Let me in. Please.

Jack

Excuse me, do you have an appointment?

Peter Banning

What did I tell you about this window? Always keep it open! Never, ever, ever close. [his phone rings] I have to take this. [answers it] Have you ever known what it's like to feel the exhilaration of really flying? Feel this.

Moira
[he throws the phone out the window.]

Where have you been?

Maggie

Fly me, Daddy. Fly me!

Peter Banning

Anytime, Maggie. To infinity and back again.

Tootles

Hello, Peter. I missed the adventure again, didn't I?

Peter Banning

I think these belong to you.

Tootles
[Peter takes the bag of marbles from around his neck and hands them to Tootles. He pours the contents out into his hand, his marbles! Tootles’s looks shocked at first, before a smile appears and his face becomes overwhelmed with a look of utter joy.]

Look! See, look! I didn't lose my marbles after all! Wendy, look! See? I didn't lose my marbles after all!

Granny Wendy

Hello, boy.

Peter Banning

Hello, Wendy lady. Give us a skwoodge.

Granny Wendy

Boy, why are you crying?

Peter Banning

I don't know. A tear for every happy thought.

Granny Wendy

One for me?

Jack

One for me?

Maggie

One for me?

Tootles

And one for me! [laughs]

Liza
[all laughing] [screams]
Tootles

Seize the day!

Granny Wendy
[last lines]

So your adventures are over.

Peter Banning

Oh, no. To live.... To live would be an awfully big adventure.
