01:30
Never forget to be truthful and kind.
01:41
Hold these virtues tightly.
01:43
Write them deep within your heart.
01:46
Telling lies about someone is as harmful as hitting him with an axe.
01:51
We're wounding him with a sword.
02:12
We're shooting him with a sharp arrow.
02:20
Yeah!
02:39
This is my grandma's house.
02:41
We've just moved in, and now I've got to start all over again.
02:45
New school, new friends, new haircut, new everything.
02:51
My family's kind of figuring out the move, too.
02:54
Boy, was it crazy those first few days.
03:01
Where's my denim jacket? Anybody seen my denim jacket?
03:04
That is the third bug I have killed today.
03:07
Toast's about ready.
03:10
I've already called the pest control people. I should be out this afternoon.
03:14
You hear that? Better make yourself scarce, pest.
03:18
Nicholas, better hurry. Don't want to be late your first day of school.
03:22
Right, Mom.
03:24
There you go. Salad is a rock.
03:28
Whatever. Get out of there.
03:30
Daddy, why are you always picking on whatever?
03:32
Come on. Come on. Come on.
03:35
Honestly, you've got to learn to loosen up.
03:37
Well, no.
03:40
You're right, honey.
03:45
For heaven's sake.
03:47
That phone hasn't stopped ringing since you got here.
03:50
Hello? What?
03:53
No, I didn't order a pizza.
03:56
Two for one's great.
03:58
Would you look at the time? I was supposed to be at the paper by 7.30.
04:02
First day on the job. Can't be late.
04:06
So long, everyone.
04:08
Bye, honey. Okay.
04:10
Bye, Daddy.
04:12
Bye.
04:15
Mother!
04:17
Coming.
04:20
Like I said, it was crazy.
04:32
Here's looking at you, kid.
04:35
McGee, what are you doing?
04:37
First day of school, huh?
04:39
Yeah.
04:41
Cheer up, buckaroo. It's like I've always said.
04:44
Make a big first impression, and the rest is a piece of cake.
04:48
Yeah, remember the last time you told me to make a big impression?
04:51
Sure. At the all-school play.
04:53
Yeah. You told me to push my way to the front of the stage so everybody could see me.
04:57
Hey, you were a smash.
04:59
Sure. When I fell over the edge and the Bobby Russ goes trombone.
05:03
Well, at least you made an impression.
05:06
Honey, better get going.
05:08
Right, Mom.
05:12
Grow up.
05:20
Here I am at my new school.
05:25
Well, somewhere in there.
05:30
All I need to do now is find my home loan.
05:34
Unfortunately, Coach Slater found me first.
05:38
Little soon to be cutting class, isn't it, mister?
05:50
Then there's lunch. Time to, you know, make those big first impressions.
06:01
And recess. I mean, what could go wrong at recess?
06:06
You didds, come back here!
06:19
Okay, okay, so it wasn't the best day I ever had.
06:27
But at least it was finally over, and so were my problems.
06:33
No!
06:35
Well, not exactly.
06:41
What do you think you're doing?
06:43
Me?
06:45
Come here.
06:50
See my skateboard? They almost put Nick in it.
06:54
What's your name?
06:56
Nick.
06:58
Oh, you're a funny man, aren't you?
07:01
Nicholas! My name is Nicholas.
07:04
Oh, say Nick, huh?
07:08
Got a present for me?
07:10
What?
07:12
If you come down my alleyway throwing cans at me, you better have some kind of peace offering.
07:17
Huh?
07:18
Money, stupid!
07:20
Man, you're one lucky dude, kid.
07:23
Beat it, Lewis!
07:25
Sure, man. But I just want him to know what an honor it is to be beaten up by somebody like you.
07:31
Bet you don't even know that this guy is the most baddest, roughest dude in the whole neighborhood.
07:37
I mean, he normally stomps guys twice your size.
07:40
Yeah.
07:41
But he's willing to risk it all to beat up somebody as wimpy as you.
07:45
I mean, my little sister could beat you up. Ain't that right, Derek?
07:49
Yeah.
07:50
Go ahead, smash his face in.
07:52
People aren't going to fear him like they used to.
07:54
His reputation will never be the same.
07:57
But Derek Rider, a man of principle, is willing to sacrifice all that on a little nothing like you.
08:06
Don't you wish?
08:08
I might forget you, squid.
08:11
You either, Lewis.
08:13
Hey, I'm your man.
08:16
Thanks, uh...
08:17
Lewis, forget it, man.
08:20
I'll see you tomorrow.
08:23
Hey, what are you doing?
08:25
I was going home.
08:26
Not that way, you don't.
08:28
Sure, I just live over on the other side.
08:30
Man, what are you thinking? No one cuts through there.
08:34
Why not?
08:36
He's a crazy Indian, man. He eats live animals.
08:40
They say anything that goes through there, don't come out again.
08:45
What, you mean like pets and stuff?
08:47
Anything.
08:56
Nick! Nick!
08:58
Where have you been?
09:00
Never mind that. This is your chance to make the big impression.
09:05
Are you cracked? Didn't you just hear what he said?
09:08
Come on, kid. Just go up and rap on one of those windows and we'll be heroes.
09:12
McGee.
09:18
Nicholas!
09:24
What?
09:26
Nick, get out of there!
09:27
Nicholas! Nicholas!
09:29
Get out of there! Get out!
09:31
Watch out!
09:32
Nicholas!
09:34
Get out of there!
09:36
Get out of there!
09:37
Nicholas!
09:47
Nicholas!
10:11
Nick, come on, let's go!
10:14
Nick, come on, don't leave me!
10:22
I decided that maybe it was time to be running along.
10:28
I bumped into Lewis on the way.
10:31
Nick!
10:32
Just to say hi.
10:36
The next day, things hadn't changed much.
10:39
There he is now, the man that knows no fear.
10:43
They changed a lot.
10:45
Did you get a good look at him?
10:47
Who?
10:48
The man, the crazy Indian man. Was he big?
10:51
Well, I knew it.
10:53
Like a monster, huh?
10:55
He was big.
10:57
I told you.
10:59
Were there any animals?
11:01
Yeah, there were animals everywhere, but...
11:03
I knew it.
11:04
Did you see him eating any?
11:06
Well, he had a rabbit.
11:08
He had a rabbit? He was eating a rabbit?
11:11
He was alive, you know.
11:12
He was eating a live rabbit?
11:14
Yeah, I guess.
11:15
Yeah, yeah, it was alive, whatever was left of it.
11:18
This is incredible, man.
11:27
By the time I got to school,
11:29
everybody knew, or thought they knew, what happened.
11:32
Gigantic claw!
11:35
There was this big, tricky alligator.
11:37
It was like ten stories tall.
11:39
I wasn't quite sure that this was the big impression I wanted to make.
11:43
There he is!
11:50
So, Squid, you some big hero now?
11:54
Hello, Nicholas.
11:57
Well, I ain't buying it.
11:59
What kind of fool do you take me for?
12:01
What kind of fool do you take me for?
12:03
How many kinds are there?
12:05
Don't change the subject.
12:07
If that guy's such a monster, eating all those animals,
12:10
where'd you get the guts to stand up to him?
12:12
What do you know about guts, Derek?
12:15
You're scared to even go near the place.
12:17
Hi, Nicholas.
12:19
Oh, hi.
12:21
That Indian is as good as gone.
12:32
Shameful, just shameful.
12:34
Hi, hon.
12:36
Oh, hello, dear.
12:38
Well, Mom, so what exactly happened?
12:40
Well, it seems that somebody broke into
12:42
George Ravenhill's cellar yesterday
12:44
and scared the poor man half to death.
12:46
Now, is that the house over a couple blocks that's so...
12:49
Yes, it is run down, all right.
12:52
But he's got arthritis so bad,
12:54
he can barely get himself around.
12:56
Such a sweet soul, too,
12:58
Such a sweet soul, too,
13:00
taking care of all those poor, injured animals.
13:03
I don't care what his house looks like.
13:05
He's just about the sweetest man you'd ever want to meet.
13:08
I don't care what his house looks like.
13:10
He's just about the sweetest man you'd ever want to meet.
13:38
Oh!
13:45
Hurray!
13:59
Huh?
14:01
Oh, no, I've got the bear!
14:08
You take that.
14:15
Do not let it come out of your hands.
14:36
All right, you hooligan! I'll do the slammer with you!
14:42
Nice work! There'll probably be a big reward in this for you!
15:06
Can I come in?
15:19
I'm sure fixing this place up in a hurry.
15:24
Missed your dinner.
15:27
Boy, you know, living here with Grandma is going to be great. Talk about memories.
15:33
Watch out, Nick.
15:41
What do you mean?
15:47
I don't know.
15:50
What if...
15:55
What if he said something about someone and, you know, they got in big trouble for it?
16:06
Oh.
16:09
Well, son, nobody likes to get somebody in trouble.
16:13
But if it's the truth, then...
16:22
Of course, if it's not the truth, then a lot of people could get hurt.
16:28
There's a person that's being lied about, but also the person that's doing the lying,
16:34
because not only will the truth eventually find him out,
16:38
but the very fact that lying is a sin,
16:43
well, that sin starts to cut off his relationship, his friendship with God.
16:51
But there's also a third person that gets hurt.
16:56
Yeah, there is.
17:00
You remember Jesus says that whatever we do to others, we do to him.
17:05
So it only stands to reason if we lie and hurt another person,
17:13
we actually hurt Jesus.
17:18
What do I do?
17:23
What do you think?
18:18
Love, love never lies.
18:22
Love never lies.
18:28
No matter what you may have done, no matter when or why,
18:34
there's never any reason the truth won't get you by.
18:49
In a moment's hesitation, you let it slip by.
18:56
Who's gonna give you the hook? It's just one little lie.
19:02
Love, love never lies.
19:08
Love never lies.
19:15
No matter what you may have done, no matter when or why,
19:21
there's never any reason the truth won't get you by.
19:30
Love never lies.
19:33
Love never lies.
19:40
All day long, everyone was talking about what Derek and his buddies had done last night.
19:49
Hey Nick, if you don't move it, you're gonna miss the action.
19:53
What?
19:54
Derek and his dorks, they're gonna put the finishing touches on old Cochise.
19:59
What, now?
20:00
Should be good.
20:07
What are you doing?
20:08
This is it, loyal minion. Time to right the wrong, to return justice to its right.
20:13
McGee, they'll kill me.
20:15
Well, what about Mr. Ravenhill?
20:20
What can I do?
20:22
There isn't much time, kid.
20:28
Come on!
20:38
Come on!
20:42
Come on!
20:47
Come on!
20:50
Good, go, go!
20:53
Go, go, go!
20:55
Love never lies.
20:58
Love never lies.
21:04
No matter what you may have done, no matter when or why,
21:10
there's never any reason the truth won't get you by.
21:23
In a moment's hesitation, you let it slip by.
21:33
So who's gonna really hurt? It's just one little lie.
21:39
Love, love never lies.
21:45
Love never lies.
21:51
No matter what you may have done, no matter when or why,
21:57
there's never any reason the truth won't get you by.
22:03
Love, love never lies.
22:09
Love never lies.
22:15
Love, love never lies.
22:21
Now who's heroes, Quinn?
22:28
Now who's heroes, Quinn?
