IMPORTANT EVENTS IN CAPTAIN

NOBODY

(1)Captain Nobody foils a robbery.


JJ gives Newt an emergency call on the

walkie-talkie. She is upset about the


spelling mistakes on the signs outside
Sullivans Jewelry Store. She insists that
Captain Nobody (Newt) talk to Mr & Mrs
Sullivan about this.
Captain Nobody enters the store when a

robber is actually pointing a hidden gun at


the Sullivans. This creates a distraction
which gives Mrs Sullivan the chance to
press the alarm and alert the police.
The robber flees. The news is widely

reported on television. Everyone wants to


know more about Captain Nobody, but
Newt is not hungry for publicity.

(2)Captain Nobody prevents an air crash


Newt and his friends are taking the

mascot Ferocious the Ferret to Newts


home. On the way, they are confronted by
Ricky Ratner and his seventh-grade gang.
In the struggle between the two groups,
the door of the cage springs open and the
ferret springs out.
Newt and his friend chase after it to get it
back. The ferret runs across the freeway
and back several times with Newt chasing
it. All traffic comes to a standstill.
By coincidence, a small airplane with
passengers has engine failure and needs a
clear track for an emergency landing. The
pilot sees the cleared freeway and
manages to make a safe landing. All lives
are saved. Again the news is widely
reported and the public interest in the
mysterious Captain Nobody grows to an
intense level.

(3)Captain Nobody rescues Reggie Ratner


There is a city-wide public alarm that

Reggie Ratner has climbed the Appleton


Water Tower to jump to his death.
Captain Nobody climbs to the top of the
tower to tell Reggie that he knows the
truth that it is not Reggie who has
collided with Chris.
Newt learns that Reggies purpose in
climbing the tower is not to commit
suicide. He helps to free Reggies foot
which is stuck in a hole on the rooftop.
Both make the descent in full view of the
crowd below. Newt lands first, followed
by 280-pound Reggie who lands on him,
causing him to break his leg and two rib
bones. Newt is place in the hospital with
Chris, his brother who is still in a coma.
