Excerpt: "I want it." - Starman (1984)

WARNING: Contains spoilers. Do not read prior to watching the movie.

---

Jenny awakens and looks around. The Star Man is not with her. As she stands up she hears his VOICE OUTSIDE. He is speaking to something in his language. She goes to the door to find out what and sees him standing beside a fenced-in pasture talking to the horses inside.

Jenny joins the Star Man at the fence.

"Good morning.

"Horses."

"You don't forget anything, do you?"

"No."

Jenny pets one of the horses on the nose.

"(to the horse) Hello... hello. How are you this morning?"

"Do they talk?!"

"(laughs) No, they don't talk... We talk to them."

"I understand."

An appaloosa nudges her way through the others to the fence.

"Oh, you're pretty..."

"I gave you a baby last night."

Shocked, Jenny looks at him from around the appaloosa's nose. The Star Man is combing a horse's mane with his fingers and he doesn't see her expression.

"(meaning the horses) They are beautiful."

"Yes, they are."

"You have been very good to me, Jennyhaydn."

"(turns to face her) You said you wanted a baby, so I gave you one."

"(shakes her head 'no') But..."

"It will be human and it will look like this. (touches his face) But when it comes it will know everything I know and everything you know. That is something from my planet that I want your baby to have."

"I told you it's impossible for me to have a baby."

"You will have this baby. If you want it. If you don't, I can stop it now."

Jenny comes over and puts her arms around the Star Man.

"I want it."
