George
Look, who are you?
Clarence
I told you, George. I'm your guardian angel.
George
Yeah, yeah, I know. You told me that. What else are you? What...are you a hypnotist?
Clarence
No, of course not.
George
Well, then, why am I seeing all these strange things?
Clarence
Don't you understand, George? It's because you were not born.
George
Then if I wasn't born, who am I?
Clarence
You're nobody. You have no identity.
George
What do you mean, no identity? My name's George Bailey.
Clarence
There is no George Bailey. You have no papers, no cards, no driver's license, no 4-F card, no insurance policy...They're not there, either.
George
What?
Clarence
Zuzu's petals. You've been given a great gift, George. A chance to see what the world would be like without you.
