Will Smith gives dance lessons to Kevin James, and Eva Mendes tells the story about her great, great grandfather ditching his family and coming to America.

Ren: [addressing the town council, reading from his notes in the Bible] "From the oldest of times, people danced for a number of reasons. They danced in prayer... or so that their crops would be plentiful... or so their hunt would be good. And they danced to stay physically fit... and show their community spirit. And they danced to celebrate." And that is the dancing we're talking about. Aren't we told in Psalm 149 "Praise ye the Lord. Sing unto the Lord a new song. Let them praise His name in the dance"? And it was King David - King David, who we read about in Samuel - and what did David do? What did David do?
[paging frantically through Bible]
Ren: What *did* David do?
[audience laughs]
Ren: "David danced before the Lord with all his might... leaping and dancing before the Lord."
[smacks table in front of Reverend Moore]
Ren: *Leaping* and *dancing*.
[stands up straight]
Ren: Ecclesiastes assures us... that there is a time for every purpose under heaven. A time to laugh... and a time to weep. A time to mourn... and there is a time to dance. And there was a time for this law, but not anymore. See, this is our time to dance. It is our way of celebrating life. It's the way it was in the beginning. It's the way it's always been. It's the way it should be now.

The voice you hear is not my speaking voice, but my voice.

I have not spoken since I was six years old. No one knows why, not even me. My father says it is a dark talent and the day I take it into my head to stop breathing will be my last.

Today he married me to a man I've not yet met. Soon my daughter and I shall join him in his own country. My husband said my muteness does not bother him. He writes and hark this: God loves dumb creatures, so why not he!

Were good he had God's patience for silence affects everyone in the end. The strange thing is I don't think myself silent, that is, because of my piano. I shall miss it on the journey.

My father was right. It didn't matter how
much I lied on my resumÈ, my real C.V. was
in my cells. Why should anybody invest all
that money to train me, when there are a
thousand other applicants with a far cleaner
profile? Of course, it's illegal to discriminate -
"genoism" it's called - but no one takes the
laws seriously.

If you refuse to disclose, they can always
take a sample from a doorhandle...

...or a handshake...

...even the saliva off your application form.

But for the most part we know who we are.
And if all else fails, a legal drug test
can just as easily become an illegal peek
at your future in the company.

A Scarlet Witch, a Black Widow and, while it's obviously the future (Nanotech suits?), Dr. Strange also travels into 14 million futures. Oh, and plenty of Widows at the end - including the Scarlet Witch when the Vision loses his stone.
