[Willie comes to the garage while ALF is looking at a train model]
Hey Willie? Is this the kind of train you used to hop?
Well, the others were bigger, of course, and they didn't run around in circles. But basically, Yeah.
How'd you do it?
Well, here's what I'd do, you see. I'd case the yard, I'd hide in a bush and wait until dark and when I saw my train was pulling out, I'd just go make a run for it.
Wow. Well did it ever get so dark, you jumped on the wrong thing? Like a bus or parade?
Ask sensible questions, ALF.
Okay. Which one is the kitchen car?
There wasn't any kitchen car. I sat in a box car. I ate beans out of a can. That's how I got my traveling name.
Bean head?
"Boxcar Willie."
Wow. What a cool name! Hey can I have your autograph?
No, no.
Come on, come on.
Well, I guess.
[Kate and Brian come to the garage]
Willie, are you sure you don't want to go to my mother's with us?
Yeah. Positive.
If dad doesn't have to go, why do I?
Because you're my son, and I can tell you what to do.
Well, there you have it.
What's this?
Oh, it's my autograph. ALF wanted it.
It's for a friend.
Well we'll be back in a couple hours. Now don't get into any trouble.
Don't worry about Willie. I'll keep an eye on him.
I was talking to you.
I know. I was being playful.
Bye bye.
Bye.
Now's our chance. Let's go down to the train yard.
No, we're not hopping any train.
I'm not talking about riding the rails. I just want to see them. Please, Willie. Pleeeease?
No, we can't. Really ALF, we can't.
Alright, tell me when this gets annoying. Yeah, yeah, you hopped a freight train, sure. Oh right. Yeah, yeah. I almost believed that. Uh huh, yeah, yeah. Look at Mr. Excitement.
Forget it, ALF. It's not working.
Okay, I'll try something else. Willie, please take me to see the trains. I haven't had an adventure in a long time. All right, maybe this will work. Willie, I'm dying. [coughs] I've only got twenty four hours to live. Twenty five, tops.
Okay, come on.
You bought that?
I bought the second thing you said.
Oh. Well what was it? I might want to use it again sometime.
Come on. Bring a sweater.
Okay.
