IT: Welcome to Derry

See, I told you there was weird shit going on over at the airbase!

They made a giant fucking mutant baby!

Come on, Susie!

Guys, come on!

Go! Go!

Susie!

- Lilly! - Give me your hand.

So, Grogan, huh?

Chief's pretty sure.

The projectionist in the movie theater...

with the candlestick.

Little Philly Malkin went to school with my boy.

Show some respect.

Sorry.

And what do you think he did to 'em? A lot of blood, no bodies?

How the hell should I know?

Maybe he ate 'em.

Those poor parents, though.

It's a goddamn tragedy is what it is.

Sick bastard.

They're still out there.

Well, they gon' stay out there

till they either find those kids or figure out how to pin this on me.

I told 'em you were nowhere near

that theater when all that ugliness happened.

Told 'em you were here, in bed, after watching The Andy Griffith with me.

Told 'em they could ask you all about it.

And you think they gon' take my momma's word for an alibi?

They're trying to intimidate us is what.

Make you confess to something you didn't do.

Well, fuck 'em!

Calm down, Momma. You know Ronnie's still sleeping.

And she shouldn't have let those kids in in the first damn place.

They were just trying to figure out what happened to that Clements boy.

That's all.

- None of this is her fault. - It's your fault.

Filling her head full of Hollywood nonsense,

thinking she Nora Charles or some such

till she forget how the world really is.

She's safe, Momma.

That's all that matters.

You're going to send that girl back to school next week.

She need that education

if she ever going to get the hell out of this town.

Momma, kids missing, people watching us,

whispering behind my back, your back, our backs.

If you think I'm lettin' Ronnie out of my sight,

- you got another thing coming. - You can't protect that girl forever.

Now come Monday, she gon' march into that school

with her head held high.

Ronnie, don't play with me now. I know you're there.

Veronica Grogan.

Are they really gonna try and pin this on you

- and take you away? - No. No, baby. No.

- I heard, you said-- - I know... I know what I said.

- That's just grown folks talking. - Come on.

Nothing's gonna happen to me.

Everything will be okay.

You hear me?

- There he is. - Dad!

Let me see the grip.

- Yeah, that's the best you got? - That you can handle.

It's like that. Okay.

There you go.

How you doing?

- I wanna see my room. - Upstairs.

You know I've been waiting on this porch for you for two hours.

Two hours, yeah.

Well, we kept it well below the speed limit.

- Hey, baby. - Hey.

What's wrong?

I had a little mishap on base and it banged me up a little bit.

- Oh, no. Bad? - I'll live.

What you think?

- It's more space. - It's very nice.

Hey, yeah, quiet neighborhood. Yeah?

- All right. Yeah. - It's beautiful.

Good afternoon.

You sure we're... we're good here?

If anybody's got a problem with it, they can take it up with JFK.

Oh my... This thing is amazing.

Would you look at that!

Yeah, I found a nice little secondhand shop downtown.

- Owner cut me a deal. - It's the exact kind I wanted.

How did you know?

You think your old man doesn't know his own kid?

Well, last present you got me was a tie.

Will, you said you loved that tie.

Yeah, well, you can't see Jupiter with a tie.

You know, when we need to, pilots, we use planets to help us navigate.

So we keep a device inside of the cockpit in case of a malfunction.

- A sextant, right? - That's exactly right.

My little navigator.

Be better at night, but in the meantime,

maybe we could use this to spy on the neighbors.

I don't think we should do that.

Yeah, prob-- probably not.

It was just a joke.

- Can I? - Yeah, sure, please. Yeah.

It's got a mirror inside. Two mirrors, actually.

You know, you have one mirror to collect the light, and--

And one that magnifies it.

That's right, son.

I'm not about to sweat out my silky press.

We were moving in such a haste.

You know Charlotte's not going to bed without Charlotte's headscarf.

I'm going to get organized tomorrow.

That was a good call on the telescope, baby. Thank you.

Figured the last thing that boy needed

was another baseball he was going to use as a paperweight.

His age, I'd have given a kidney for a proper mitt.

Well, he isn't you.

Now is he?

He's too smart for his own good. That's what he is.

He's just trying to impress you.

That hurt?

What's the exact opposite of hurt?

I do not like being apart.

A part of what?

Is it Dean?

- No. - Is it Cole from history?

- Hi, guys. - Come on, Elaine. Just tell us.

What? Tell us what?

We promise we won't tell anyone.

About what?

You guys can just stop asking, 'cause I'm not gonna tell you.

- What are you not telling? - We're your best friends.

Whoever it is you have this crush on, you have an obligation to tell us

so we can be happy for you.

Don't you want us to be happy for you?

Yeah. Don't you want us to be happy for you?

Promise not to laugh.

Cross my heart and hope to die.

Fine.

I think Scotty Mills is turning into kind of a dreamboat.

See, I knew you guys would laugh.

Well, that was before you told us it was Scott the Snot.

He hasn't had that problem since we were kids.

Are you talking about me?

Sorry, I can't breathe very well.

- Oh my God, that's what he sounds like. - Does something smell?

- I can't smell anything. - Marge, you're not funny.

Does anybody have a tissue?

Enough, Marge.

Yeah, don't be mean.

Look who's back.

Where does she get the nerve?

I can't sleep knowing that her dad could just crawl through

my bedroom window at night.

Do you think she knows where the bodies are?

I was worried about you.

I can't stop thinking about them.

And about that thing.

Good morning, students.

This is Principal Dunleavy speaking.

It's 9:00 a.m. on another sunny spring day.

Now I would like to thank everyone who attended last week's candlelight vigil

for Theodore Uris and Philip and Susie Malkin.

It was an uplifting evening of prayer and remembrance.

And a strong reminder that as a community, we can weather any storm.

And the cafeteria will not be serving its usual sloppy joes.

In its place will be meatloaf, mashed potatoes, and something green.

Hey.

Hi, Marge.

I just wanted to make sure you were okay.

We haven't really talked since, you know,

the thing that happened at the theater.

Yeah, I'm fine.

Thanks.

Good.

I-- It just-- It feels like you've been ignoring me.

No, it's just been hard.

I'm sure. I know. I bet.

Take your seats quickly, please.

Look, I saw you,

before, talking to Ronnie Grogan.

So?

So, Patty and the girls really care about you,

but they don't know you like I do.

They see you getting cozy with you-know-who's daughter,

they won't understand.

I just...

I know you want things back to the way they were,

with us, with the Pattycakes, and I can help.

I want to, but you have to let me.

How about eating lunch with us today?

Phil and Teddy are dead. Phil's sister is dead.

Who cares about your stupid Pattycakes?

Today, we will be discussing the four basic food groups

and how to best employ them

to ensure your growing bodies attain maximum vigor.

Is this Miss Douglas's class?

Sorry, I couldn't find the room. I--

I'm Will Hanlon. I'm new.

Are you new to the concept of time, Mr. Hanlon?

You mean, like, relativity?

There's no excuse for tardiness.

Next time your grade will reflect it. Take a seat.

Quiet! Quiet, everyone.

Cedar Pointe.
