00:01He was 25 years old. He combed his hair like James Dean.
00:06He was very fastidious.
00:08People who littered bothered him.
00:12She was 15. She took music lessons and could twirl a baton.
00:16I'm Kit. I'm not keeping you from anything important, am I?
00:20No.
00:21She wasn't very popular at school.
00:23For a while, they lived together in a treehouse.
00:26In 1959, they murdered a lot of people.
00:36Of course, I had to keep all this a secret from my dad.
00:39He would have had a fit since Kit was 10 years older than me
00:42and came from the wrong side of the track, so-called.
00:46I don't want you to hang around anymore.
00:51I don't want to see you again.
00:54Understand?
00:55Then, sure enough, Dad found out I'd been running around behind his back.
00:59He was madder than I'd ever seen him.
01:01He made me take extra music lessons every day after school
01:04and wait there until he came to pick me up.
01:07He said that if the piano didn't keep me off the streets,
01:10maybe the clarinet would.
01:13My girl Holly and I decided to kill ourselves the same way I did her dad.
01:17Nobody's coming out of this thing happy, especially not us.
01:26I can't deny it was that fun, though.
01:29We hid out in the wilderness down by a river in a grove of cottonwoods.
01:33It'd be in the flood season, we built our house in the trees.
01:36We planned a huge network of tunnels under the forest floor,
01:39and our first order of business every morning was to decide on a new password.
01:43He gave me lectures on how a gun works,
01:50how to take it apart and put it back together again
01:53in case I had to carry on without him.
01:55He said that if the devil came at me, I could shoot him with a gun.
01:59Hey!
02:13Listen to your parents and teachers.
02:15They got a line on most things, so don't treat them like enemies.
02:18There's always an outside chance you can learn something.
02:24Try to keep an open mind.
02:26Try to understand the viewpoints of others.
02:29You think I got them?
02:34I don't know.
02:35Well, I'm not going down there and look.
02:37Consider the minority opinion,
02:39but try to get along with the majority of opinion once it's accepted.
02:43Of course, Holly and I have had fun, even if it has been rushed.
02:46So far, we're doing fine.
02:48Hadn't got caught.
02:49Excuse the grammar.
