D Dottie
I was wondering if you would go someplace... with me.
Look, Dottie, I like you. Like! I like you!
D Dottie
Yes, I like you, too--
[shouts]
Dottie! [calm voice] There's a lotta things about me you don't know anything about, Dottie. Things you wouldn't understand. Things you couldn't understand. Things you shouldn't understand.
D Dottie
I don't understand.
You don't wanna get mixed up with a guy like me. I'm a loner, Dottie. A rebel.
[Pee-wee begins his meeting]
This box contains over 217 bits and pieces of information: Evidence. [extracts some evidence, starting with a photograph] Exhibit A: A photograph of the victims: My bike and me. Exhibit B: [exposes a second photograph] Another photograph. What's missing from this picture? It's just me...WITHOUT MY BIKE! [Amazing Larry is about to whisper to Mario] Is this something you can share with the rest of us, Amazing Larry?! [Larry reacts, then he extracts...] Exhibit C: The horn I was picking up at Chuck's Bike-O-Rama, when my bike was actually stolen. [honks his horn at full blast, and the crowd reacts to it; then he extracts a pen] Exhibit D: Jimmy, what is this?
Chip Uh, looks like a pen.
Exactly! I bought this pen one hour before my bike was stolen. Why? What's the significance?! I DON'T KNOW! [several hours later] Exhibit Q: A scale-model of the entire mall! [points to the scale model with the pointer] X marks the scene of the crime. These arrows here show the exact position of the sun at the hour of the crime. Jupiter was aligned with Pluto! The moon was in the seventh...
Chuck Pee-wee!
Please save your questions until I'm THROUGH, Chuck!
Chuck Well, when will that be? A long time, we wait! We've been here for over three hours now, and I'm not sure if any of us can see what all this is supposed to mean.
"Supposed to mean"? "Supposed to MEAN"?! [snaps the pointer in half, causing Speck to cower under the laundry] I think everyone here knows what this is supposed to mean. When you've gone over something again and again and again and again, like I have. Certain questions get answered. Others spring up! Your mind plays tricks on you. You play tricks back! It's like you're unraveling a big cable-knit sweater that someone keeps knitting and knitting... :[most of the guests leave] ...and knitting and knitting and knitting and knitting and knitting and knitting and knitting!
D Dottie
Pee-wee, let's go up and get some fresh air, alright?
D Dottie
Because it's hot in here.
Hot? Who's hot? Feels just fine to me. I feel just PERFECT! In fact, I can't remember when I felt quite so COZY down here!
D Dottie
Pee-wee, I think I can get Chuck to give you a good break on one of the bikes in the shop.
I don't want some other crappy bike!
D Dottie
Well, Pee-wee, listen, if you want my help...
I DON'T want your help! I don't need the police and I DON'T NEED YOU! I DON'T NEED ANYBODY!
