The Deleted Scenes of August Rush
Scene #3
Again, no idea why they cut this scene. And, again, I cut out some dialogue (only one line that I could not understand). In this scene, Louis and Marshall discuss stuff, I guess.
.........
Louis stood in his apartment, packing his things. His flight to Chicago left early the next morning, and he had left all of his packing for the last minute. As he walked around making sure he hadn't forgotten anything, Marshall sat on the couch, looking at the Polaroid picture of Lyla and Louis.
"So Steve tells me you quit your job," he said after a moment.
Louis walked over to a suitcase and packed some jeans. "Yeah."
"So where you going, baby bro?"
"Chicago."
"Oh…the Windy City."
Louis looked up from his suitcase. "Let it go, Marshall."
Marshall set down the picture and started to laugh as Louis turned back to packing. "You really think that a scruffy, ignorant, Mick immigrant's just gonna waltz in there and sweep her off her feet?"
Louis zipped the suitcase a little too forcefully and looked up at his brother. "Yeah."
"Yeah?" Marshall shook his head. "You're such a dreamer, man."
"I used to dream," Louis said, frustrated. "You know that? I used to close my eyes and whisper into the darkness, hoping someone was listening and talking back to me. And you know what, Marshall? For one night--just for one night!--she gave that back to me. What if she needs me?" He pointed out the window. "There's something out there for me, Marshall. There is. I can hear it." Marshall shrugged his shoulders. "So you're going to go looking a woman you spent one night with over ten years ago?"
"Yeah."
"Louie…she thought she was too good for you, man. Do you not remember? Do you not know where you came from, Louis?"
"I've always known where I came from, Marshall." He picked up his suitcase. "And now I know where I'm going." He picked up the picture and put it with his things and started to walk out the door.
"Louis," Marshall started.
Louis stopped and turned around.
"You know…we're still minus one mad Connelly brother."
Louis nodded, smiled, and walked out the door.
