Pennywise

Last chance, Tozier - get out before it gets dark tonight. You're TOO OLD to stop me! You're ALL TOO OLD!

Richie (to the Librarian): Tell Mike Hanlon, if you see him--

Pennywise

Excuse me, sir, do you have Prince Albert in a can? You DO?! Well, you better let the poor guy out! Wuhah! Wuhah! Wuhah! Wuhah! Wuhah! Wuhah!

Richie (to the Librarian): Tell Mike Hanlon... (Pennywise starts using a spinning ratchet noise maker) ...that I had to go, that I had to get cleaned up! Tell him! Tell him! Tell him, I'll see him tonight!

Pennywise

GET OUT!! Last chance, Tozier! Get out! Get out while you can!

[Richie runs out of the library.]

Pennywise

(off-screen) Excuse me, ma'am, is your refrigerator running? [gasps] It IS?! Well, you better catch it before it runs away! Wuhah! Wuhah! Wuhah! Oh, I kill myself!

Scenes with Pennywise 5

Pennywise

[from inside the drain] Hiya, Georgie! [reveals himself] Aren't cha gonna say... hello? [Georgie shakes his head] Awww, come on, bucko. Don't you want a... [pulls out a yellow balloon] balloon? [Georgie is initially tempted, but hesitates]

GGeorgie

I'm not supposed to take stuff from strangers; My dad said so.

Pennywise

Very wise of ya dad, Georgie - very wise indeed. I, Georgie, am Pennywise, the Dancing Clown. You are Georgie. So now we know each other. Keeerect?!

GGeorgie

[still somewhat nervous] I guess so. I gotta go.

Pennywise

Go?! Without this? [shows Georgie his fallen paper boat]

GGeorgie

[cheerful] My boat!

Pennywise

EX-actly! Go on, kiddo. Take it. [Georgie stares, unsure about reaching into the stormdrain for his boat] Awww. You want it, don't you, Georgie? Of course you do. And there's cotton candy, rides, and all sorts of surprises down here. And balloons too. All colors.

GGeorgie

[skeptical] Do they float? [reaches in for his boat]

Pennywise

[face begins changing from a smile to a frown] Ohh, yes. They float, Georgie. They float. And when you're down here, with me... YOU FLOAT, TOO!!

GGeorgie

[screams in terror]

[IT/Pennywise grabs Georgie's arm and pulls him toward the stormdrain, with fangs bared. Cut to next scene.]

Pennywise

That’s it! Let go. Be afraid!

B-Bev, the stones!

Pennywise

You all taste so much better when you're afraid.

Hurry, Bev. Kill IT!

Pennywise

Kill?! [laughs] Me?! Oh you are priceless, brat! I am eternal, child. I am the eater of worlds, and of children.(Turns to Stan) And you are next!

[IT is about to feed on Stan when Eddie runs towards IT. IT turns around and Eddie holds out his ventilator.]

This is battery acid, you slime!

[Eddie sprays IT with his ventilator. IT screeches and pulls white slime off its face, revealing it to be burnt.]

(pulling the slingshot) Please, God...

My dad says there's no way to date this one. He says it's probably from the early or mid-1700s when Derry was a logging town.

Hold it. P-P-P-Pennywise the Clown?

That's him. That's him!

200 years ago? He was here then?

Come on, it's just a drawing!

Now, look; Here he is again. The same man.

It's not a man.

It... IT! [the scrapbook begins flapping] Th-That's what happened back in Georgie's room. [the scrapbook stops at a page and the picture comes to life. The kids see IT/Pennywise dancing] Look!

[IT/Pennywise spots the children, growls and climbs up to a lamppost to scare them]

Pennywise

I'll kill you all! [laughs] I'll drive you crazy, and I'll kill you all! I'm every nightmare you've ever had! I'm your worst dream come true! I'M EVERYTHING YOU EVER WERE AFRAID OF!

[grabs the book and throws it] NO!

EEEveryone else

YES!

Don't let it get to you, man.

You saw it, too.

I didn't want to...

But you did.

...Yes. Okay. If that's what you want... Yes.

Yes, that's what I wanted, you t-turkey.

Pennywise

(indicating a number of freshly dug graves) Take your pick, Buh-Buh-Buh-Billy boy. Oh, except for the one on the end, that's already taken. Sorry.

I remember you, and I remember we beat you. I'm not afraid of you.

[Pennywise snarls and bares his teeth angrily]

[Ben bikes out to the riverbank after an argument with his mother]

OVOffstage voice

Ben! Benny! Up here, Ben!

[turns around and gets up] Daddy?

HCaptain Hanscom

Benny! [Ben motions towards waterworks building] Ben! Ben! Hi, Ben!

Daddy?

HCaptain Hanscom

That's my home now, son! [Ben cannot believe it when suddenly he sees his father holding balloons]

HCaptain Hanscom

You want a balloon, Ben? They float!

Pennywise

They all float.

HCaptain Hanscom

Come here, son! You'll like it down there!

Pennywise

You'll never have to grow up! [laughs, changes back to normal, points at Ben, and disappears as a skeleton comes out of the water] They float. They all float. And when you're down here with me, Fatboy, you'll float too. [laughs]
