It's A Wonderful Life Alternate Reality Scene Flashcards
Is the library closed?
It’s Christmas Eve, we can’t stay open all night.
Can I ask you something?
I should really be getting home.
What is there to go home to?
That is none of your business, sir. The library is closed. Maybe you should try back the 26th.
Mary, I’m sorry.
How do you know my name?
All I need is a couple of minutes.
I told you, the library is closed.
Please: just two minutes, that’s all I need. I’ll do anything.
You sound desperate. I’ll help if I can. What is it?
Isn’t this town Bedford Falls?
It used to be. But that was some time ago. I wasn’t very old when Potter was elected and took the town, along with its name, for himself.
So you do know a place called Bedford Falls?
I’ve seen pictures, it looked like a very nice place. Things have changed, but that’s with the times. I have to go.
Mary Hatch: You live on Reed Street, a white Victorian. Your bedroom is at the top of the stairs, you turn to the left. You have an older brother Marty and you live with your mother Edwina.
How do you know all this?! What are you, some crazy man? Stop it! I’m leaving!
Don’t you know me, Mary? Just let me hold you.
Don’t get near me or I’ll call a cop!
The house you wished for! Don’t you remember?
I told you I don’t know you! Officer!!
Don’t you know me? You must! Mary, it’s George, don’t you know me.
Mary, please! Oh, don’t do this to me. Please, Mary, help me. Where are our kids?
What?
I need you, Mary! Help me, Mary!
Get away from me. Help! Help! Police! (Run back to seat)
