00:00I'll tell you what, $80 for a ton of raisins last week, $95 for a ton this week.
00:08That war may be far off, but it sure is helping the price of your farm's goods.
00:12I suppose so.
00:15I can appeal as a farmer for a draft deferment.
00:18People gotta eat, someone's gotta grow the food.
00:20They're gonna take anyone with Japanese blood away from the western coastline,
00:23some sort of camp system.
00:25You're gonna have to trust someone to take care of this place.
00:27Japanese Americans were put into camps with no due process of law.
00:31They expect us to stay caged up in here like animals.
00:34That was one of the worst human rights nightmares this country has ever experienced.
00:38I'm trying to figure out if I'm even wanted here.
00:40It was kind of like, where do I stand as a citizen?
00:43They might start a draft for us.
00:45I'll fight it.
00:46This sounds crazy.
00:47You draft people out of prison.
00:48They drafted people?
00:50They didn't know what was gonna happen once they got separated.
00:52Like, what if they never found each other again?
00:54Are you a gambler, Mr. Kubo?
00:56Do I have a choice?
00:57We need you here with us.

01:00It's not your call, Shiz.
01:01Our family is a man's job.
01:04There's always something you can do, Yoshi.
01:12Good night, Father.
01:25Hey, you're away.
01:26Good night and close then, obviously, your son is being redeemed, so I Hope you stay worthy.
01:31Hi, friends.
01:32Thanks.
01:33Hi, buddy.
01:34My family is a domain, but you are faithful.
