is going to close.
我们都这么以为 可是…
That’s what we thought. As it turned out…
可是意想不到的事情发生了
But something unexpected happened.
一个小奇迹 就是这个
A little miracle. And here it is.
创新型的铅笔
This is a new kind of pencil
原材料几乎只有叶子
made almost entirely out of leaves.
全新的铅笔
A new kind of pencil.
是蒂莫西提议让我们做的
The pencil that Timothy had asked us to make.
它不仅能保护树木
It will not only save trees,
更能保住我们的工厂
but will save our factory.
别急着谢我
Don’t thank me.
我可没有那么高♥瞻♥远见
l did not have the vision
能想到这革命性的点子
to come up with this revolutionary idea.
容我为你们介绍它的发明者
But allow me to introduce you to who did.
我的儿子 富兰克林·克拉德斯塔夫
My son, Franklin Crudstaff.
我的自豪之情简直难以言表
l can’t begin to describe the feeling of pride l have.
说实话 富兰克林
Quite frankly, Franklin,
我还以为你没这种才能呢
I didn’t think you had it in you.
他确实没有
He didn’t.
这根本不是他的主意
He didn’t have it in him.
这个主意是我父母想出来的
The new pencil was thought up by my parents,
吉姆和辛迪·格林
Jim and Cindy Green.
看哪
Look here.
这孩子不就是
It’s the boy who kicked the winning goal
那个送分童子吗
for the other team.
住口 富兰克林
Hey, hey, stop, Franklin.
明显他现在又迷糊了
Well, he’s obviously confused again.
他射门得分 结果我们还是输了
He shoots. He scores. We lose.
够了 不许再对我的儿子说三道四
Hey! Enough. Do not pick on my son.
实情是
The truth is,
我和辛迪之所以能够
the only reason that Cindy and I
想出这个点子
came up with the idea for the leaf pencil
是因为这孩子相信我们
is because he believed that we could.
他才是唯一的理由
He’s the reason.
要是你想说他撒谎
And if you call him a liar,
要是你想嘲笑他
if you ever so much as even look at him funny,
先得过我们这一关
you will have to deal with me.
还有我
And me.
真感人
How touching.
说说看 你是怎么想到
Tell me, how did you come up with this idea
用叶子做铅笔的呢
to make a pencil out of leaves.
富兰克林
Franklin?
很简单 真的
It seems kind of obvious, really.
哪里都能找到树叶
Leaves are everywhere.
然后就…
And, uh…
想到了铅笔
pencil.
你们呢
How about you?
自从蒂莫西成为我们的家人
Ever since Timothy came to us,
树叶就成为了
leaves have been a big,
成为我们生活的一大重心
a big part of our lives.
为什么
Why?
说吧
Well?
因为我腿上长了叶子
Because l have leaves on my legs.
腿上长叶子
Leaves on your legs.
是的
Yes.
我们的儿子蒂莫西
Our son, Timothy,
腿上长了树叶
has leaves on his legs.
我们一直隐瞒
And we didn’t tell you guys
因为我们很害怕
because we were afraid.
也有点丢脸
And kind of ashamed.
所以我曾想把叶子剪下来
I even tried to cut his leaves off.
你不是真的以为
Surely you don’t expect us
我们会天真地相信
to believe that…
我亲眼见过那些叶子
I’ve seen the leaves.
而且还生机勃勃的呢
They’re spectacular.
和他人不同
And it’s okay to be different.
甚至是奇怪都没关系
A little weird, even.
谢谢
Thank you.
你们不相信也没关系
It doesn’t matter if you believe us or not.
我想看一看那些叶子
l’d like to see the leaves.
你自己做主吧
It is up to you.
不想去也不要紧
You don’t have to.
没关系
It’s okay.
也是时候了
It’s time.
真神奇
Now that’s amazing.
以前我有更多呢
l used to have more.
既然腿上长叶子这么神奇的事情都存在
If this boy can have a leaf on his ankle,
那我们肯定也能用叶子做铅笔
then we can make a pencil out of leaves.
开工了
Let’s all go to work!
你们俩太酷了
You guys were incredible.
蒂莫西 你的叶子怎么了
Timothy, what happened to your leaves?
你们懂的
You know.
不 我们不懂
No. We don’t know.
他不告诉我们
He wouldn’t tell us.
对 一直沉默
No. He was quiet.
然后我们感觉有事情要发生了
We were in the middle of something.
我们不知道是什么
We didn’t know what.
可是蒂莫西知道 他很淡定
But Timothy knew. He stayed calm.
他很清楚 而且毫不慌张
He knew, and he was okay with it.
那景色美呆了
It was beautiful.
真的很美
It was really beautiful.
蒂莫西
Timothy.
你是不是隐瞒了什么
What aren’t you telling us?
我们得快进去
We should get inside.
-先进去吧 -快点
– Get inside. – Come on.
我没事先告诉你们
I didn’t tell you before
因为就算说了也不会有改变
because there’s nothing you could have done.
当我的叶子
About my leaves…
怎么了
What about them?
告诉我们吧
Please, please tell us.
当我的叶子都凋零了的时候
When my leaves go…
你也会消失 是吗
You go, too, don’t you?
什么时候
When?
现在
Now.
不要
No, no.
不要 宝贝 不可以
No, sweetie. You can’t.
这不是你们的错
It’s nothing you did.
从开始就注定了结果
It’s how it’s supposed to be.
注定了就只有这么短的时间
There’s only so much time.
普通的孩子长大后离开父母
Other kids grow up and move away.
而我叶子掉光后就要离开你们
I lose my leaves and move on.
宝贝 不要走
Sweetie, you can’t.
我们要一起做的事情还有很多
There is so much that we have left to do.
我们现在才刚刚上手
We’re just starting to get good at this.
你们会没事的
You’re ready.
-你们一直都很坚强 -宝贝
– You were always ready. – Baby.
记住永不放弃
Never give up.
蒂莫西
Timothy?
-蒂莫西 -吉姆
– Timothy? – Jim.
吉姆
Jim.
天啊
Oh, Jim.
在这
Here, here, here, here.
盒子里装了什么
What was in the box?
这个
This.
谢谢 这就足够了
Thank you. I think that’s all we’ll need.
这就完了吗
That’s it?
这…
That…
谢谢您
Thank you.
亲爱的爸爸妈妈
Dear Mom and Dad.
我的叶子全都送出去了
About my leaves, l gave them all away.
那是我留给大家的礼物
