- HI, YOU MUST BE LIAM.
- HEY, BUDDY, HOW ARE YOU FEELING TODAY?
- [hoarsely] I'M FEELING FINE, DR. GUPTA.
JUST FINE.
- THIS IS MARION GLASS,
AND SHE'S FROM THE MAKE A WISH FOUNDATION.
- MARION GLASS.
- HOW ARE YOU FEELING TODAY, LIAM?
- I'M FINE, MARION GLASS. - GOOD.
WELL, I HAVE SOME NEWS THAT MIGHT MAKE YOU FEEL
A LITTLE BETTER, HUH?
WE AT THE MAKE A WISH FOUNDATION MAKE DREAMS COME TRUE
FOR LITTLE BOYS AND LITTLE GIRLS WHO ARE VERY SICK JUST LIKE YOU.
- THERE ARE NO CHILDREN LIKE ME, MARION GLASS.
- OH, OF COURSE NOT.
YOU'RE ONE OF A KIND, BUT WE'RE GONNA MAKE ANY DREAM
COME TRUE THAT YOU COULD EVER HAVE, OKAY?
- ANYTHING?
- THAT'S RIGHT, BUDDY. THAT'S RIGHT.
WOULD YOU LIKE TO PLAY WITH YOUR FAVORITE BASKETBALL TEAM?
WHAT ABOUT BE SUPERMAN FOR A DAY?
- I WISH TO DROWN A MAN.
[eerie music]
♪
- WHAT?
- TO DROWN A MAN IN THE BATHTUB.
TO HOLD HIM DOWN WHILE THE LAST BREATH
ESCAPES HIS BODY, AND THEN BATHE IN THAT WATER,
ALL THE WHILE SINGING,
♪ LA-LA, LA-LA
♪ LA-LA, LA
- LIAM.
- YOU SAID ANYTHING.
- WELL, S-SURELY WE DON'T WANT TO HURT OTHER PEOPLE,
NOW, DO WE, KIDDO?
[both laugh uneasily]
ANYTHING ELSE?
FLY IN A HOT AIR BALLOON OR MEET A CELEBRITY?
- MY NEW WISH IS TO LEAN OVER THE BODY OF A DYING MAN
AND PUT MY LIPS ON HIS, STEALING HIS LAST BREATH.
[inhales]
- LIAM.
- NO ONE WILL GET HURT.
- ABSOLUTELY NOT.
I DON'T EVEN KNOW WHERE YOU--
- I WISH TO TAKE ALL THE PROSTHETIC LEGS
IN THE HOSPITAL AND BIND THEM TOGETHER
WITH THE DRIED FLESH OF THE DEAD
INTO A WEBBED MASSIVE CREATURE, AND--
- LIAM!
I AM SO SORRY, MS. GLASS. - IT'S ALL RIGHT.
HE--HE DOESN'T KNOW WHAT HE'S SAYING.
- I WISH TO PEE IN YOUR MOUTH.
- WHAT? - BOTH OF YOU.
- MINE?
- ESPECIALLY YOU. - OH.
- I WISH TO PEE IN BOTH OF YOUR MOUTHS
AS I STAND OVER YOU.
I'LL NEED A GLASS OF WATER IN TEN MINUTES.
- ENOUGH, YOU LITTLE SHIT!
- DR. GUPTA!
- NO.
YOU ARE REPREHENSIBLE.
YOU ARE EVIL.
YOU ARE A DEVIL CHILD.
- [whimpering]
- DR. GUPTA, HE'S NOT A DEVIL CHILD.
HE'S JUST A CHILD.
YOU HAVE NO BUSINESS WORKING IN A PEDIATRIC WARD.
- WHAT? - I'M GONNA REPORT YOU.
- [crying]
[door slams]
- ♪ SHAME ON YOU, GUPTA
♪ SHAME ON YOU, GUPTA
YOU REALLY UPSET MARION GLASS.
- THIS IS INSANE.
YOU'VE MADE ME QUESTION EVERYTHING THAT I'VE EVER
BELIEVED ABOUT THE ESSENTIAL GOODNESS OF CHILDREN.
- WISH GRANTED.

I AM DYING THOUGH.
