00:00:00Oh
00:03:20Hi.
00:03:22Can I help you?
00:03:24If you're in Franklin Page.
00:03:30Sherman.
00:03:32Yes, sir.
00:03:36I didn't know if you'd want to see someone like me again.
00:03:41Come on in.
00:03:42Come on in, at least.
00:03:43I just thought I'd look you up.
00:04:13Honey, this is Sherman Oliver, an old friend. Sherman, this is my wife, Irene.
00:04:19Hi. Nice to meet you, Mr. Oliver.
00:04:22Ma'am?
00:04:23And this is Jacob. Jacob, can you say hi to Sherman?
00:04:32He's shy. Don't worry. He'll be vying for your attention soon enough.
00:04:37Are you hungry, Sherman? I-I was just gonna finish feeding the kids and then
00:04:41make something for Franklin and me.
00:04:45I could eat.
00:05:03So how did you get here, Sherman?
00:05:07Walked. Walked.
00:05:12I lost my license a while back.
00:05:15I mean, I bussed in from the city, but I walked from your depot.
00:05:21You must be tired.
00:05:23Not especially.
00:05:27That's quite a track.
00:05:30I don't mind walking.
00:05:32That's how you get to know a place.
00:05:35I think so, too.
00:05:39So are you from the city originally?
00:05:42No, ma'am.
00:05:47So where is it you're from, then?
00:05:52Oh.
00:05:57I guess I'm from all over.
00:06:21I guess I'm from all over.
00:06:22I guess what?
00:06:22I could have been there for a while.
00:06:26buddy...
00:06:26Right.
00:06:26I'm sorry.
00:06:32I don't think so.
00:06:36You won't have to know a place like that.
00:06:37Yeah.
00:06:49Even though it's your hair grow, your beard, I guess I never wanted to see a razor again
00:06:57after I got out. How'd you end up out here anyway? I had a hard go of it that first
00:07:10year out,
00:07:11fleeing one town to the next. Eventually I wound up with a mill job around here.
00:07:22I walked into the office that first day, and man, oh man, there she was. Irene.
00:07:30First time I saw her, I knew. I knew she was the one I wanted to spend everything on.
00:07:36All the money I'd saved, all the experience I'd gained, all the love I could never give away.
00:07:47So I did.
00:07:50Wife and kids. Just like we used to talk about, dream about.
00:07:57I don't remember too many dreams of domesticity back then, Sherman. I kind of remember I was
00:08:03playing poker with some girls sitting on our laps, huh?
00:08:10You're right, Frank. That's right.
00:08:16You ever see any of those boys anymore?
00:08:20No, actually I... I lost touch.
00:08:26You?
00:08:28Not much.
00:08:32Has it been seven years?
00:08:35Mm-hmm.
00:08:37Man.
00:08:41You know, I heard once that everything takes seven years.
00:08:47Serious illness, broken heart, you name it.
00:08:51Anything bad takes seven years to come to terms with, and...
00:08:55I don't know.
00:08:57Maybe now, right now, is your time.
00:09:06Maybe it is, Frank.
00:09:27Maybe it is, Frank.
00:09:30A little bit, yeah.
00:09:33Nicely done.
00:09:40Your friend doesn't talk much.
00:09:44He calls me ma'am.
00:09:48He loosens up a bit when you get a drink, innit?
00:09:51Oh, well, I'll leave that to you.
00:09:55Did she tell you why he's here?
00:09:59No.
00:10:00I think he's feeling a bit lost, that's all.
00:10:03Hmm.
00:10:04Were you guys close or something?
00:10:07Not particularly.
00:10:10We were in the same company.
00:10:12Mom.
00:10:15It's just that one day, he, uh...
00:10:19He got pretty banged up.
00:10:24Shot in the head, actually.
00:10:28Now the other guy said, just leave him.
00:10:33But I ran out there.
00:10:36And picked him up, and I carried him back.
00:10:40Rescued him, I guess.
00:10:42I don't know.
00:10:54You never told me that.
00:10:59Yeah, I need to hear about that stuff.
00:11:02There's nothing I don't want to hear about.
00:11:06You know that.
00:11:10Right?
00:11:13Yes, ma'am.
00:11:32Sherman Oliver.
00:11:36Sherman Oliver.
00:11:58You have my number at the mill if you need anything.
00:12:01Yes, sir.
00:12:02If you get hungry, there's a cafe just up ahead.
00:12:05Okay.
00:12:09Sherman, I'll be back just after five to pick you up.
00:12:14Thanks, hi.
00:12:14Oh, yes, sir.
00:12:15Oh, my god.
00:12:21Shh.
00:12:29Run, run, run, run.
00:12:33Oh, my god.
00:12:35Oh, my god.
00:12:39Definitely.
00:12:39Oh, my god.
00:12:40Come on.
00:13:13Come on.
00:13:44Come on.
00:13:45Come on.
00:13:46Come on.
00:13:47Eat your peas, please.
00:13:48Take them.
00:13:51Oh.
00:13:52Num nums?
00:13:53Yeah.
00:13:55That a boy.
00:13:57How's the library?
00:13:59All right.
00:14:01Yeah?
00:14:01What were you reading?
00:14:04Books about war.
00:14:06I like to hear what people have to say on the subject.
00:14:12Any you enjoy in particular?
00:14:18All of them.
00:14:27So you lived here all your life?
00:14:31Oh.
00:14:32Yeah.
00:14:3337 years now.
00:14:35I mean, I went away to university for a while, but otherwise.
00:14:40And you worked at the same place as Frank?
00:14:43Well, he worked at the same place as me, and then he knocked me up to force me out.
00:14:49He impregnated you to get you to quit?
00:14:53No.
00:14:54No.
00:14:54No.
00:14:55I was just joking.
00:14:57Oh.
00:15:18Frank.
00:15:20He said when he first saw you there, he knew you were the girl he wanted to spend everything
00:15:26on.
00:15:29All the money he'd saved, all the experience he'd gained, and the love he'd never been able
00:15:35to give away.
00:15:39He said that?
00:15:42It's embarrassing.
00:15:44Jesus.
00:15:45Tensions.
00:15:46Tensions.
00:15:47Oh.
00:15:48Yes.
00:15:48Thank you, honey.
00:15:50I meant to say gosh.
00:15:52Oh, my gosh.
00:15:52Oh, my gosh.
00:16:20You know, almost that whole year I was in the hospital, I thought my name was actually
00:16:25Oliver Sherman.
00:16:27Some nurse wrote all my information down backwards.
00:16:32It's Army bureaucracy for you, huh?
00:16:35For a year.
00:16:36It wasn't even me.
00:16:39And I didn't know the difference.
00:16:43How'd you finally find out?
00:16:45I got a letter with my real name on it.
00:16:47Oh.
00:16:48Sure.
00:16:50I thought that kind of said something about my life.
00:16:53You know, Oliver Sherman.
00:16:55Almost right, but not quite.
00:17:09So how'd you get that?
00:17:11Lose it, I mean.
00:17:14Oh.
00:17:17It was that day, actually.
00:17:21When I went to grab you, I didn't see.
00:17:23Your leg was caught up in razor wire.
00:17:27And I start running.
00:17:29And with each step, the wire cuts deeper.
00:17:34And by the time we get to safety, it's just dangling like a tea bag from a string.
00:17:42I'm sorry.
00:17:45Mom.
00:17:46It's just a finger, barely half of one.
00:17:50I'm probably not even worth that.
00:17:55Sherman, don't say that.
00:17:58It's not true.
00:18:00Mm-hmm.
00:18:05Hail half a finger for all the drinks you bought me here tonight.
00:18:09I figure I'm coming out ahead.
00:18:14You still got the citation for bravery?
00:18:19It's buried somewhere.
00:18:21You shouldn't bury it.
00:18:23Eh, maybe not.
00:18:28You think I could see it?
00:18:29When we go back?
00:18:30I'd like to see it.
00:18:33I guess so.
00:18:36I'm not a bad feeling.
00:18:48Franklin, what are you doing?
00:18:50I'm just looking for something.
00:18:53I am not dealing with those kids if they wake up.
00:18:55I will.
00:18:57Go back to bed.
00:18:58I'll be in in a minute.
00:19:08You found it?
00:19:11Yeah.
00:19:17There she is.
00:19:21Oh.
00:19:24Can I hold it?
00:19:27Sure.
00:19:39You were so brave.
00:19:41No.
00:19:42I just did what any man would do.
00:19:44Or should.
00:19:46None of the others did.
00:19:48Well, I was probably more twitchy than them.
00:19:52No.
00:20:02You know what's funny?
00:20:04What's that?
00:20:06You still got your metal in there.
00:20:09I still got some metal in here.
00:20:38So you're here.
00:20:58There's a little black bug floating on the water on the black...
00:21:03Is there a card with that?
00:21:06Look at that!
00:21:11So what brings you to Kleinbrook, Sherman?
00:21:15I heard Frank was here.
00:21:18So how long you stay in?
00:21:20Well, I haven't decided yet.
00:21:27And you went all the way from the big city, huh?
00:21:31I guess.
00:21:33What is it you do there?
00:21:36Nothing much.
00:21:38Just a vet.
00:21:40Oh, yeah?
00:21:41Oh, our cat has an eye infection.
00:21:43Maybe we should have brought her.
00:21:47I don't know anything about no cats.
00:21:48What?
00:21:50Like the apples.
00:21:52In the spring we'll do.
00:21:54When we do.
00:21:56When we do.
00:21:57When we do.
00:21:58When we do.
00:22:10How you holding up in there?
00:22:14Fine.
00:22:15It's fine.
00:22:17That smells good.
00:22:19You need anything?
00:22:22Actually, you could take these two plates of dogs in there if you don't mind.
00:22:28Thanks, Sherman.
00:22:30I'll be in a second.
00:22:35Good.
00:22:36I'm not gonna be able to buy a bottle of dogs.
00:22:40I'm not gonna be able to buy a bottle of dogs.
00:22:45Goddammit!
00:22:47Motherfuckin' cotsucka!
00:23:11Happy birthday to you, happy birthday to you.
00:23:21Happy birthday dear Jacob, happy birthday to you.
00:24:09You okay?
00:24:13I put ten bucks in that jar there.
00:24:16I figured those words were worth at least that.
00:24:21No, that's too much.
00:24:23It doesn't matter.
00:24:29I'll show Jacob in the morning.
00:24:35It's strange seeing how you got this whole life now.
00:24:42It's like nothing ever happened.
00:24:45You're all civilized.
00:24:46Settle down now.
00:24:48Well, I've tried to anyway.
00:24:54Is that what you want?
00:24:55To settle down?
00:24:57I don't know.
00:25:02Maybe if I found a girl who'd have me, civilian life, everybody's so smug and laced up, visiting each other,
00:25:14talking to each other at your little get-togethers.
00:25:19You have to keep telling yourself, behave right.
00:25:23If you don't, some tight-ass son of a bitch is going to.
00:25:27Son of a gun.
00:25:29Sorry.
00:25:34It's nice, actually.
00:25:36It's calm.
00:25:38You'll see.
00:25:42Sometimes it's like leftovers.
00:25:46Put back together with scotch tape.
00:25:49Sent out in the world again.
00:25:54They say the universe is infinite, right?
00:25:58Well, if it's infinite, well, is there no room in it for me?
00:26:05There's room enough, Sherman.
00:26:08Believe me, there is.
00:26:15Everything made more sense back then.
00:26:19I felt like I had someplace I was supposed to be.
00:26:26For the rest of my life, if I could just feel the way I felt when I was squeezing that
00:26:32trigger.
00:26:37Get there.
00:26:37Get there.
00:26:46Get there.
00:26:52Get away.
00:26:59Get his door with fire.
00:27:00Get in there!
00:27:14The body of Christ.
00:27:15Amen.
00:27:19The body of Christ.
00:27:21Amen.
00:27:25The body of Christ.
00:27:26Amen.
00:27:31The body of Christ.
00:27:32Amen.
00:27:35The body of Christ.
00:27:37Amen.
00:27:40The body of Christ.
00:27:45The body of Christ.
00:27:47Amen.
00:27:59Did you see the way they were all looking at him?
00:28:03Send your kids over to the pages and we'll send them all
00:28:05saying cocksucker.
00:28:07He apologized.
00:28:08It's creepy.
00:28:10Okay, so he's a bit rough and he doesn't know how to behave
00:28:13in polite company, but he's okay?
00:28:16He's raw.
00:28:18And he drinks too much.
00:28:20He just hasn't gotten over things yet.
00:28:22Why not?
00:28:23You did.
00:28:24He is just hanging around feeling sorry for himself.
00:28:29It was a head wound, Irene.
00:28:35That poor man has no one on his side.
00:28:38He's got no one to love him.
00:28:40Just chewed up and spit out.
00:28:44Have a nice life.
00:28:45Try to behave.
00:28:50You know, when you came to our door, my heart just sank.
00:28:55It hurts to look at the guy.
00:29:00You know, I think, did I really help him or curse him?
00:29:13That's the kind of man you are.
00:29:16Too modest to admit when you've done a great thing.
00:29:21But you did.
00:29:23You know, and injured or not, it's up to him what he does with that now.
00:29:30He won't stay here long.
00:29:33I promise.
00:29:34Okay.
00:29:50Daddy, come push me.
00:29:52Daddy, come push me.
00:30:03Sure, go ahead.
00:30:06Sure, go ahead.
00:30:07Sure, go ahead.
00:30:07Let's go.
00:30:52I was wondering what I can do to repay your hospitality.
00:30:58Relax, Sherman, you're a guest.
00:31:00We don't want anything.
00:31:02No.
00:31:03I can't keep sponging off your goodwill.
00:31:07I'm going to stop it.
00:31:10You hear any complaints?
00:31:19Can I ever show you this?
00:31:26Same one I was issued when we fought together.
00:31:29You can't have that out in here.
00:31:31You get arrested.
00:31:36You keep yours?
00:31:37God, no.
00:31:38You're not even allowed.
00:31:40Not all of us can have medals for keepsakes.
00:31:45Give me a break.
00:31:52Hey, did they ever teach you how to use your bayonet to catch a fox?
00:31:55When you're stranded in winter and you need to save bullets?
00:31:59I don't think so.
00:32:02So what you do is you take a piece of jerky, put it on the tip of the blade.
00:32:09Then you're buried in the snow, knife point up.
00:32:12Fox, he smells that from a long way away.
00:32:15He comes running.
00:32:17He starts to lick the meat.
00:32:18Then he licks it again.
00:32:20Then he cuts his tongue.
00:32:22But it's winter and he's half starved.
00:32:24He keeps going despite the pain.
00:32:27He keeps tasting all his wonderful, fresh blood.
00:32:31Not knowing it's his own.
00:32:35That's how you catch a fox.
00:32:37He bleeds to death.
00:32:39It's simple.
00:32:40No bullets.
00:32:41And you can use the knife again.
00:32:49That's pretty horrible.
00:32:53Oh, no, no.
00:32:54That's what we're like.
00:32:56That's the ingenuity of man.
00:33:00I don't remember them teaching us anything like that.
00:33:03Well, maybe I heard it somewhere else.
00:33:05I don't remember.
00:33:06You want another drink?
00:33:09Oh, I think I got to take a break.
00:33:10And you can't afford to keep buying disability comp.
00:33:17Come on, you have to have another.
00:33:19I can't keep pace with you, Sherman.
00:33:23Well, that's one thing I got on you then, isn't it?
00:33:31A couple more gears, please.
00:33:47I got to sober up in here.
00:33:50If I go in like this, Irene will shoot me.
00:33:54$5,000, I'd shoot my own mother.
00:33:57What?
00:33:58No.
00:33:59God is my judge.
00:34:00Oh, man.
00:34:01That's your problem, see?
00:34:02Because God said, thou shalt not kill.
00:34:05Not my God.
00:34:07You do that to your own mother?
00:34:11She's been dead for ages.
00:34:13What's one more bullet?
00:34:17She's...
00:34:20Let's go get some sleep.
00:34:46Hey.
00:34:49Hey.
00:34:50I mean, there's no way...
00:35:37I mean, there's no way...
00:36:03I mean, there's no way...
00:36:29Did you read anything good today, Sherman?
00:36:32Same old.
00:36:35Maybe you should try something new.
00:36:37Branch out a little.
00:36:41Why?
00:36:43I don't know. Variety.
00:36:47Expanded world view.
00:36:50Well, I like what I like, ma'am.
00:36:52Never been to a big university like you.
00:36:56Nothing wrong with that.
00:37:04You talked to your sister about watching the kids tomorrow night?
00:37:07Yeah, I did.
00:37:08What'd she say?
00:37:09She said fine.
00:37:17She saw Raymond Sadler in town yesterday.
00:37:22Did he see her?
00:37:23I don't know.
00:37:24Hmm.
00:37:26That could have gotten ugly real quick.
00:37:32Who's Raymond Sadler?
00:37:43He's always been something of a town bully around here, Sadler.
00:37:47He married Irene and Joan's mom a few years after their dad passed away.
00:37:52Treated her terribly.
00:37:55Kept her from her kids and grandkids.
00:37:59And then all of a sudden, she was sicker than any of us had been told.
00:38:02And after she died, we learned that she left everything to Sadler.
00:38:08All the money, property.
00:38:12He swindled her when she was at her weakest.
00:38:15Swindled all of us.
00:38:18And you guys just let him get away with it?
00:38:24No, I mean, we fought it in the courts for a while.
00:38:30You know, it just gets to the point where you're spending so much energy on the past,
00:38:33you don't have much left for the present.
00:38:37And you and Frank here know all about that, right?
00:38:41How easy it is to waste one's time harping on things that have already happened.
00:38:50I'll give you those for our customers just to show our appreciation for their little attendance through here.
00:38:58And it looks like one of your vendors, who's turned out as a vendor, is now on a public office.
00:39:03Do you want to tell me a bit about that?
00:39:05Yes.
00:39:11Answer me!
00:39:13What do you have to do?
00:39:24What do you have to do?
00:39:33Thank you very much.
00:39:39Cheers.
00:39:41Cheers.
00:39:44Cheers.
00:39:45Cheers.
00:40:14Cheers.
00:40:39Hi.
00:40:40Hey.
00:40:46I have to go.
00:40:47Why?
00:40:49I told Sherman I'd pick him up and have a nightcap. You knew that.
00:40:53This is the first time we have been alone in more than a week.
00:40:59Listen to how quiet it is.
00:41:03He's waiting for me down there.
00:41:07Well, I hope he's a good kisser.
00:41:10Because if you get in that car, those lips are not touching mine.
00:41:18Is that right?
00:41:19That's right.
00:41:24You're a piece of work, you know that.
00:41:26I do.
00:41:40Hey, are you Sherman?
00:41:42Yeah.
00:41:42There's a call for you.
00:41:56There's a call for you.
00:41:58Hello?
00:41:59Sherman.
00:42:00Yeah?
00:42:01Hey, it's me, Franklin.
00:42:03Hey.
00:42:04You coming now?
00:42:05Listen, man.
00:42:06I'm really sorry.
00:42:07The baby has a fever and we have to stay with her.
00:42:11Can you find your own way back?
00:42:13I'm sure the bar can call you a cab or something.
00:42:18But we were supposed to have a drink.
00:42:20I know.
00:42:21I know.
00:42:21I'm sorry.
00:42:22But we can do it tomorrow instead.
00:42:24Let me tell you something, girl.
00:42:28Sherman?
00:42:29Yeah?
00:42:31I'll leave the front door unlocked for you, okay?
00:42:42You got to treat, hey.
00:42:54Hey.
00:42:58Canadian club.
00:43:01Make it a double.
00:43:11Sir.
00:43:13Sir.
00:43:16Your cab's waiting outside.
00:43:32Sir.
00:44:02Sir.
00:44:24You don't have no fucking fever.
00:44:52Sir.
00:44:55You promised me a drink, Frank.
00:45:00Sherman, it's like two in the morning.
00:45:04I sat there like an idiot.
00:45:07An idiot with no friends.
00:45:10Drinking by himself.
00:45:13We'll go back there tomorrow.
00:45:15What's going on?
00:45:17You promised, Frank.
00:45:20Sherman, go to bed.
00:45:22You promised me, Frank.
00:45:24I said go to bed, Sherman.
00:45:35It's okay.
00:45:37It's okay, I'll get her.
00:45:38Hey!
00:45:40Hey!
00:45:40Hey!
00:45:42Hey!
00:45:44Hey!
00:45:45Hey!
00:45:45Hey!
00:45:46Hey!
00:45:46Hey!
00:45:47Hey!
00:46:00Hey!
00:46:05Hey!
00:46:19Hey!
00:46:19Hey!
00:46:29Hey!
00:46:38Hey!
00:46:46Hey!
00:46:47Hey!
00:46:50Hey!
00:46:57Hey!
00:47:01Hey!
00:47:16Hey!
00:47:18Hey!
00:47:25Hey!
00:47:28Hey!
00:48:29Great.
00:48:30Okay.
00:48:41Feel like some steak tonight?
00:48:43Sure.
00:48:51Sherman.
00:48:53There he is.
00:48:56Raymond Sadler.
00:49:00I've seen that guy at the library.
00:49:02I'm surprised he can read.
00:49:03I'm surprised.
00:49:04I'm surprised.
00:49:07I'm surprised.
00:49:08I've seen...
00:49:12I need to be back.
00:49:14I need to be back.
00:49:31Oh, my God.
00:50:06Say, boss, hadn't we better send that heat to the junkyard?
00:50:10Nothing doing.
00:50:12Don't you remember what Barnum said?
00:50:14Gee, Rosalind, is that a nifty-looking car?
00:50:18Yeah, it's Eleanor.
00:50:23That's all you've been in fine.
00:50:25Ah, shit.
00:50:26There's a bargain that can't last long.
00:50:29Twenty-five cents.
00:50:31Yes, it is.
00:50:32It's apt to go up any time. Hop in for a demonstration.
00:50:37What?
00:50:47It won't stop. I'd better turn off the road.
00:50:50When we pass that picket fence.
00:50:54Picket fence doesn't dare tell me.
00:50:56Well, I'm not gonna bring it to you.
00:51:06Now, how about this?
00:51:07You can keep the coin, or I can show you something even better.
00:51:16Here.
00:51:24Here.
00:51:29Here.
00:51:31Here.
00:51:36Here.
00:51:37Here.
00:51:55I keep trying to stick up for you, and you just leave me twisting in the wind.
00:52:02I told you he asked me to see it, so I showed it to him.
00:52:06He's four years old.
00:52:08My father taught me to hunt when I was four.
00:52:11Hell, earlier.
00:52:14Jacob's not like you and me.
00:52:16What's so wrong with you and me?
00:52:18Nothing. He's just different, that's all.
00:52:23You've forgotten who you are. That's what's wrong.
00:52:28Tucked it away real nice.
00:52:30And I'll tell you what, that son of yours, he's no different either.
00:52:35Men, women, children, they're all violent.
00:52:39That's so goddamn extreme.
00:52:41And I saw the way you smacked that kid.
00:52:43I spanked him.
00:52:44Yeah. And killing in war is different than killing here, I know.
00:52:49Okay, but Sherman, what I never hear you talk about is the other side, the good.
00:52:56Why do you always have to see the worst from the outset?
00:53:00I know.
00:53:01You're better than me.
00:53:03Goddamn it, Sherman, that's not what I'm talking about.
00:53:12You're a really lucky man, Frank.
00:53:17I feel like I'm on the outside of everything, looking in.
00:53:22At you, your wife, and those kids.
00:53:27Normal house, normal things in it.
00:53:32Maybe if I went out and got all those things, maybe I'd see things different.
00:53:39How you see them.
00:53:44I'm real happy for you though.
00:54:18Sherman, if you want to smoke, do it outside.
00:54:36We have no respect for our home, he has no respect for anything.
00:54:40I'm trying to talk to him about it.
00:54:42He just flashes those sad eyes at you and you fall.
00:54:45I said I'm trying.
00:54:47Well, you need to try harder.
00:54:48I want to know when he's leaving.
00:54:50I already have two children to take care of.
00:55:05Anything okay?
00:55:09She wants to know where you go next from here.
00:55:11What your long-term plans are.
00:55:23I'll try and think of some today.
00:55:28Yeah!
00:55:31I.
00:55:42Honey.
00:55:43Try again.
00:55:43I'm drank.
00:55:44over here.
00:55:45You can clear my sleep๏ฟฝ des ะฟะตั!
00:55:46Any time.
00:55:46I can clear my time!
00:55:49You can I will...
00:55:50Try to leave no time!
00:55:54If there are many times in all.
00:56:28Sherman, you're back early.
00:56:31I needed to leave the library.
00:56:33They're fumigating.
00:56:37Oh, come on in.
00:56:40We're just in the kitchen.
00:56:59All right, if I sit.
00:57:01Go ahead.
00:57:11Where's the kids?
00:57:13They're both napping.
00:57:15I was just getting lunch ready for when they wake up.
00:57:21Do you need anything?
00:57:22No, thank you, ma'am.
00:57:30Say, you ever play poker?
00:57:37Too busy.
00:57:40I mean, he played a lot of cards in the service.
00:57:42Mostly poker.
00:57:44Poker at night.
00:57:46Drunk with the girls.
00:57:50He had a lot of card playing in whorehouses.
00:57:52Well, that's something you don't forget.
00:57:55Smell that perfume.
00:57:58Long, dark hair.
00:58:03You think he's for good?
00:58:09I know I should feel sorry for your troubles.
00:58:11Oh, you don't have to feel sorry for me.
00:58:14I'm doing okay.
00:58:16But you've got to pity a man who wasn't right in the head.
00:58:23I guess I could get away with a lot if I wanted to make that excuse.
00:58:26Like you do.
00:58:28I'm a mother.
00:58:29I've given birth.
00:58:30I can say and do whatever I please.
00:58:34You may be crazy, but you're not dumb, are you?
00:58:37I'll tell you something else.
00:58:39Frank didn't come for the cards.
00:58:42He never could play a lick.
00:58:45Games are for children.
00:58:47Franklin is a grown man.
00:58:50You know, it's taken years for him to get over the war, but he did it.
00:58:55And he's fine now.
00:58:57And you could be too.
00:58:58But trying to drag a cured man down into your sickness isn't going to make you well.
00:59:02Oh, is that what I'm doing?
00:59:05Oh, you hate me, don't you?
00:59:07I don't hate you.
00:59:09He's killed, you know.
00:59:10Hasn't changed him.
00:59:12How do you know?
00:59:13You didn't know him before.
00:59:14He's a good man.
00:59:15Yes, he is.
00:59:17But he knows how easy it would be to do it again.
00:59:20Before you do it, you think it's impossible.
00:59:23You probably think that, don't you?
00:59:26Think what?
00:59:27You couldn't kill.
00:59:29I couldn't.
00:59:30Really?
00:59:31A baby by the wrong man, you wouldn't get rid of it?
00:59:36If one of those kids was in danger.
00:59:38Fine, I'd kill anybody for that.
00:59:40Even your husband.
00:59:42What?
00:59:43If you had to make a choice.
00:59:47Why are you trying to intimidate me?
00:59:51We're talking.
00:59:53Why don't you want to talk about things?
00:59:57This isn't talking.
00:59:59This is a game of chicken with a drunk.
01:00:03I am not drunk, ma'am.
01:00:08There's fumes from the fumigation is all.
01:00:12Speaking of which, it's probably safe for me to go back to the library now.
01:00:33I am not drunk, ma'am.
01:00:48I am not drunk, ma'am.
01:00:53I am not drunk.
01:00:55I am not drunk, ma'am.
01:01:13Hey.
01:01:13Hi.
01:01:15I've been calling you all afternoon.
01:01:18I was at a meeting off-site.
01:01:19We have to talk.
01:01:21Can I take you upstairs? Sure.
01:01:24I'll be right back.
01:01:33Where are the kids? At my sister's.
01:01:36Why? He came back here
01:01:37during lunch.
01:01:39Sherman? I just picked him up from the library.
01:01:41Well, I don't know.
01:01:43You know, I guess he went back
01:01:45to put on a good face for you.
01:01:47What happened? He came here
01:01:49and he was saying things.
01:01:51What things?
01:01:53He was trying to bully me
01:01:55and... Tell me what
01:01:57he said.
01:01:59He was talking about prostitutes.
01:02:02And killing.
01:02:04He threatened me
01:02:05with our children not 20 feet away.
01:02:07This is where it ends. I don't want
01:02:09him in our house.
01:02:10I don't want him in our town.
01:02:13He leaves now or I'm going to my sister's.
01:02:30Outside.
01:02:44Sit down.
01:02:51What's wrong, Frank?
01:02:52Did you come here today at lunch?
01:02:54I was at the library all day.
01:02:57He picked me up there.
01:03:00Did you threaten my wife?
01:03:03And I just...
01:03:05We were just talking.
01:03:07That is my wife!
01:03:09I'm trying to raise a family here!
01:03:19Monday morning.
01:03:21That's when the next bus leaves town.
01:03:23And you're on it.
01:03:24Go pack your shit.
01:03:25I'm taking you to a motel.
01:03:29Uh...
01:03:30Frank.
01:03:32Go.
01:03:34Go get your stuff.
01:03:36It's over.
01:03:52I'm sorry, Frank.
01:03:54I'll be back Monday 9am to take you to the depot.
01:03:58We'll get back Monday 9am.
01:04:04We'll get going.
01:04:14Bye.
01:04:34I don't know how much I've been looking to chew, the whiskey makes.
01:04:50This is when nerves take over, I can guarantee you it's not easy.
01:05:34I can't believe it's not easy.
01:05:41It's time for a regular payment.
01:05:44It's already donated $100,000 to the city,
01:05:46and it's here the remainder, which is done by July 12.
01:06:26That's $6.25, please.
01:06:38Wait.
01:06:40Do you have any of those rubber dishwashing gloves?
01:07:11I don't know.
01:07:13I'm sorry.
01:07:14I'm sorry.
01:07:15I'm sorry.
01:07:26You're right.
01:08:28She used to hide her cigarettes behind that thing.
01:08:30She always pretended to be...
01:08:33Hello?
01:08:34Brink?
01:08:36Yeah.
01:08:38It's Sherman.
01:08:41Sherman.
01:08:43You really shouldn't be calling here.
01:08:45I just wanted to make sure you're still coming to get me tomorrow.
01:08:49Yeah, like I said, I'll be there at nine.
01:08:51I'm fine.
01:08:52Good.
01:08:55Um, so I heard on the radio yesterday something happened to Raymond Sadler?
01:09:04Yeah.
01:09:05Killed himself.
01:09:07Fed his dog some pills and shot himself in the head.
01:09:11I guess maybe he had a conscience after all.
01:09:15Uh, listen, Sherman.
01:09:17Irene's family's here trying to work all this stuff out, so I really should be getting back.
01:09:23I wanted to know if maybe you wanted to have some breakfast tomorrow before I go.
01:09:28I have some things I'd like to say, if I could.
01:09:35Sure.
01:09:36I'll, uh, I'll come for eight then.
01:09:41That's great.
01:09:43I'll see you in the morning, then, Frank.
01:09:46All right.
01:09:47Bye.
01:10:10I'll see you in the morning.
01:10:26I'll see you in the morning.
01:10:27I'll see you in the morning.
01:10:28I'll see you in the morning.
01:10:28I'll see you in the morning.
01:10:32I'll see you in the morning.
01:10:34I'll see you in the morning.
01:10:35I'll see you in the morning.
01:10:36I'll see you in the morning.
01:10:39I'll see you in the morning.
01:10:43I'll see you in the morning.
01:10:47I'm fine, thank you.
01:10:50You're happy about it, right?
01:10:52What happened to him?
01:10:54I don't know if happy is the word.
01:10:58I'm relieved that Irene and her sister have some peace.
01:11:02And the land and the money you're all owed.
01:11:06We hope so.
01:11:10Well, I'm real glad.
01:11:16Listen, we should probably get the check, and, uh...
01:11:19I wanted to ask you something.
01:11:22Okay.
01:11:25I've been thinking about things, things you said.
01:11:30You know, with a house like that, Raymond Sadler's,
01:11:36a man could get a wife real easy.
01:11:41A man like me, even.
01:11:46My wife...
01:11:48She'd clean it up.
01:11:49Make it real pretty.
01:11:52And...
01:11:54Who knows?
01:11:55Maybe we...
01:11:56We could have some kids.
01:12:00Make them bring us our slippers in front of the fireplace.
01:12:06Maybe I could move in there, since it's empty.
01:12:10Maybe...
01:12:11And start...
01:12:12Making a life like you got.
01:12:15Like you said, Frank, maybe it takes seven years for everything.
01:12:21Maybe...
01:12:21This is finally my time.
01:12:25Mm-hmm.
01:12:31Sherman, if...
01:12:32The estate is settled,
01:12:35Irene and her sister are selling it and splitting the money.
01:12:38It's...
01:12:39It's already been decided.
01:12:41It's all you did.
01:12:42He's a sudden happiness...
01:12:45He's a...
01:12:46Oh.
01:12:48And holds its world in gold...
01:12:52...and holds its world in gold...
01:12:53...and to rise...
01:12:53...to fight...
01:12:56...it's his day is for you...
01:12:58...and his way...
01:13:01...and the heart...
01:13:10...just a little something to help you get started...
01:13:13...wherever that might be.
01:13:24I gotta piss.
01:13:26It doesn't matter.
01:13:42It does matter.
01:13:54It's your spirit.
01:13:54Do you?
01:13:55If you don't have to lose it, you can't collapse it.
01:13:55You can't collapse it very easily...
01:13:55...and you.
