00:12:43fine by me
00:12:44who wants this jinx anyway
00:12:46thomas go write up the contract
00:12:51just as aunt grace smugly carries the flour inside
00:12:55she trips over nothing
00:12:58the flour she traded me for is completely blown away by the wind
00:13:04car
00:13:09no
00:13:25see that
00:13:27god is watching
00:13:30Leone, let's go home.
00:13:32For the first time, the cramped cabin feels warm from the fire.
00:13:36Mrs. Hanson curses the whole time,
00:13:39calling the thick wool blanket Miss Martha spent three months knitting
00:13:42a piece of junk, but she tossed it right into my arms.
00:13:46This junk is stiff and stinky.
00:13:48Hurry up and make a bed for this unlucky brat,
00:13:50and don't get my floor dirty.
00:13:54Grandma Ada calls that beautiful wool blanket junk,
00:13:57but she has sick Mr. Arthur tuck me in with it.
00:14:01In this moment, I finally have a home.
00:14:05Thank you, Grandma.
00:14:07Thank you, Mom.
00:14:10Thank you, Mr. Arthur.
00:14:13Mr. Arthur tells me to call him Dad.
00:14:16He says until my real dad comes back, he'll protect me with his life.
00:14:20I'm finally not an unwanted kid anymore.
00:14:28Good Lord, how could that wicked woman do this?
00:14:33Martha, go sell my wool coat.
00:14:36Use the money to build up her strength.
00:14:38To buy me meat, Dad even wants to sell his winter coat.
00:14:42Grandma slams the table and stops him,
00:14:44because without it, Dad won't survive the winter.
00:14:47Mom cries and says the doctor told them a natural hot spring
00:14:51could turn Dad's health around.
00:14:52But in Oakhaven, where it hasn't rained in three years, that's impossible.
00:14:57Don't be scared, Dad.
00:14:58I'll pray to the angels.
00:15:00You're going to get better.
00:15:04I pray to the angels with all my heart.
00:15:07I'd give up ten years of my life for Dad's health.
00:15:10I run to the back hill, wanting to do more chores for the family.
00:15:14With a loud pop, I easily pull a deep-rooted stump right out of the ground.
00:15:20Then, a blast of hot, wet steam shoots into the sky like a giant dragon.
00:15:27Grandma! Mom! Come out quick! I broke the ground!
00:15:33Hearing my scream, Grandma Ad rushes over first.
00:15:37I think I broke the earth and caused a huge disaster.
00:15:41But when she touches the boiling water with trembling hands,
00:15:45she laughs and cries like a kid.
00:15:48It's hot! The water is hot!
00:15:51It's a natural hot spring!
00:16:08My face burns like it's on fire, but I don't cry.
00:16:13Grandma Ada told me if I'm bullied and oppressed, I have to fight back.
00:16:18Leone, you are a child of this house.
00:16:21When you get bullied, you fight back.
00:16:24Grandma helps me raise my hand and aim at Aunt Grace,
00:16:27who's waiting for a laugh.
00:16:29The stone hits her shoulder dead-ass.
00:16:32Ouch! My shoulder's hurt! Help!
00:16:34I watch Aunt Grace run away.
00:16:36She used to seem like a giant fence to me.
00:16:39But now, she looks like a panicked gray rat scurrying around.
00:16:44Grandma Ada is like a massive tree shielding me from the storm.
00:16:48She publicly announces she's cutting ties with Miss Ella.
00:16:52Leone is my chosen granddaughter! She's no jinx!
00:16:54Mother! Your real grandson is right here.
00:16:57Arthur is a cripple, and Martha can't have kids.
00:17:00If you insist on keeping this jinx, we're cutting ties.
00:17:03Fine, I agree.
00:17:04Mom and Dad pull Grandma's sleeves,
00:17:07begging her not to act rashly.
00:17:09But she firmly refuses.
00:17:12As long as this toxic woman, Ella, is around,
00:17:16our family will never have a normal life!
00:17:19I'm kicking this wicked woman out today!
00:17:22Cutting ties is no big deal.
00:17:25But get the best house and the biggest part of the farm!
00:17:28Done!
00:17:30You can have it!
00:17:32Just get out of my sight!
00:17:35Ella, don't hesitate!
00:17:38Cut ties with them!
00:17:40And your husband's money will be all yours!
00:17:43Do you want Leonise to bring bad luck to you and your baby?
00:17:48Don't forget, her unlucky dad just died in the war!
00:17:53My dad isn't dead!
00:17:55He's coming back!
00:17:56He'll come back and make you pay!
00:17:59Stop dreaming!
00:18:00He was blown to ashes long ago!
00:18:03You won't even find his bones!
00:18:06Leonise's bad luck will drag the whole town down!
00:18:09Just watch!
00:18:10Soon you won't even have mud to eat!
00:18:13I'm not a jinx!
00:18:14Grandma Ada says I brought good luck!
00:18:18You're a bad person!
00:18:20Get out of my house!
00:18:25Aunt Grace's laughter suddenly stops as the roar of an engine with a steel monster shatters
00:18:33the silence of the wasteland and traces baffles and dust.
00:18:37The car door opens and a tall man covered in metal steps out.
00:18:41I don't even need to see his face.
00:18:43The pounding in my blood give gives me the answer.
00:18:47Dad!
00:18:49Dad!
00:18:49Dad!
00:19:01A hot spring!
00:19:03It's a real hot spring!
00:19:06Arthur!
00:19:07My son!
00:19:09The doctor said a hot spring could save your lungs!
00:19:12You're saved!
00:19:13Mom hugs me tight and kisses my face in excitement.
00:19:17She says I'm an angel sent by God.
00:19:20It turns out I'm not unwanted trash.
00:19:22I can be someone's salvation too.
00:19:26But when I happily return to the yard, I'm greeted by two icy faces.
00:19:32Miss Ella and Aunt Grace are whispering together.
00:19:35Their glares pierce my heart like poisoned swords.
00:19:39What rotten luck!
00:19:40We're already too poor to eat and now we have to share food with her.
00:19:43Ella, I'm telling you, stay away from them.
00:19:47That Leonae brings nothing but bad luck.
00:19:55But remembering Bad spent all his money on medicine.
00:19:59I can't bear to see this family tear itself apart over me.
00:20:02Miss Ella, please don't be mad.
00:20:06I won't fight for anything.
00:20:08I'll help take care of the baby.
00:20:10And I won't eat the good food.
00:20:13Liar!
00:20:14Are you gonna let her pass her bad luck to your son?
00:20:17Her curse will kill your son!
00:20:21Pete!
00:20:21Ah!
00:20:28Get lost!
00:20:29Don't touch me with your dirty hands!
00:20:41Aunt Grace screams that I'm a monster who kills families.
00:20:45Pushing Miss Ella to attack me.
00:20:48Just as I try to beg again,
00:20:50Ella winds up and slaps me hard across the face.
00:20:57Aunt Grace is still lying.
00:20:59She points at my bloody wounds and lies with a straight face that I fell while playing.
00:21:03But I see the neighbors shaking their heads.
00:21:05They all know it's not true.
00:21:08Bullshit!
00:21:09I saw you buy new leather boots in the city with the military pay
00:21:12while you made this poor kid gnaw on spoiled potato peels in the snow!
00:21:15Yeah!
00:21:16She even locked the kid in the barn to beat her!
00:21:18We all heard the screams!
00:21:20The Major's face is as dark as a stormy sky.
00:21:23He waves his white-gloved hand and orders their arrest.
00:21:26Uncle Thomas is taken away,
00:21:28but Aunt Grace avoids arrest because she has a baby to take care of.
00:21:34Watching the Jeep drive away,
00:21:35I don't feel the thrill of revenge.
00:21:38I just think that maybe justice really does come to this desolate look.
00:21:44I thought with $5,000, my new home would be safe.
00:21:48I never expected trouble to come so fast.
00:21:51Miss Ella bursts through the door,
00:21:52and her stare at that pile of cash is even scarier than Aunt Grace's.
00:21:58I'm carrying the only heir to this family.
00:22:01We should get half of that $5,000.
00:22:03James keeps his head down.
00:22:06For money, he doesn't even dare look at his sick brother.
00:22:10They aren't trying to steal money.
00:22:12They're trying to steal my last memory of my dad.
00:22:15Nobody is touching this money, including you!
00:22:19From now on, we live our own lives.
00:22:22Get out of my house!
00:22:24For me, Grandma kicks her own son out of the house.
00:22:27She rubs my head and says,
00:22:30as long as she's here,
00:22:32no one will touch a single hair on my head.
00:22:40The majestic maid decorated with medals gives me a solemn salute.
00:22:45I thought God heard my prayers and brought Dad back,
00:22:49but that cold purple heart tells me I'll never feel his hug again.
00:23:00Captain Leo protected our country with his life.
00:23:03This honor belongs to him and to his only daughter, Leonie.
00:23:08The major pulls out a thick paper bag.
00:23:11Inside is $5,000 for my dad's military pension.
00:23:15I don't know how much that is,
00:23:17but I hear the adults saying
00:23:19it could buy a mountain of bread covered in sugar and jam.
00:23:24Aunt Grace and Uncle Thomas pop out of nowhere.
00:23:27One second they want to throw me into the wild,
00:23:29and the next they put on fake smiles inside a dragon home.
00:23:33Uncle Thomas grips my arm like an iron vis.
00:23:36I know he doesn't want me.
00:23:37He wants that blood money.
00:23:41Grandma Ada acts like a lioness protecting her cub,
00:23:44and rips up my sleeve.
00:23:46Those rotting frostbites and bruises look so layering in the sunlight.
00:23:50Look, sir!
00:23:51Living with these two heartless scumbags,
00:23:53Leonie starves, freezes, and gets beaten every single day!
00:23:56It's absolutely heartbreaking!
00:24:04You!
00:24:07How dare you treat a hero's only daughter like an animal!
00:24:12Mom is finally smiling.
00:24:14When she smiles,
00:24:17the wrinkles around her eyes look like pretty flowers.
00:24:20If good luck is real,
00:24:22I want to give it all to the people who treat me well.
00:24:28But this is just the beginning.
00:24:30I actually dig up some lumpy white roots from the dirt
00:24:34that smell amazing.
00:24:36Mom says they're wild mushrooms.
00:24:39They smell so good.
00:24:41I don't know what they are,
00:24:43but Mom says we can sell them for money,
00:24:45so they must be good.
00:24:48Golden grease bubbles in the pan.
00:24:51The white mushrooms Mom sliced.
00:24:55Release an incredible, mind-blowing smell in the heat.
00:24:59Even bed-roan Papa Arthur can't help but sit up.
00:25:08You're clearly an angel bringing good luck,
00:25:11yet they call you a witch-bringing disaster.
00:25:13What a bunch of blind idiots.
00:25:16But the smell brings trouble, too.
00:25:18Miss Ella bursts in,
00:25:20drooling so much it almost drips into our pot.
00:25:23She points to the air in her belly
00:25:26and demands the biggest bowl of meat.
00:25:30This time, Grandma Ada doesn't even look back.
00:25:34The heavy, bloody meat-clawber in her hand
00:25:37just flies across the room.
00:25:39With Grandma here, no one can go with us.
00:25:41Take one more step into my yard,
00:25:43and I'll chop your feet off.
00:25:44Get lost!
00:25:49Grandma Ada locks the money
00:25:51in an iron box under the bed.
00:25:53She tells me that money
00:25:55could buy lots of pretty clothes and candy.
00:25:58But my dad traded his life for it,
00:26:01so we can't waste a single penny.
00:26:05Dad's gut-ranking coughs come from the back room.
00:26:10He begs Mom from his sickbed
00:26:12to stop worrying about him
00:26:14and to save the last bite of food for me.
00:26:33The cracked earth in the Blackwood Forest
00:26:36looks like countless mouths laughing at our poverty.
00:26:39Starving people have stripped away
00:26:40every chewable piece of tree bark
00:26:42in this hell hole.
00:26:44Mom leans on her stick,
00:26:45wandering the wasteland in despair.
00:26:48Just as Mom is about to collapse,
00:26:51I trip hard over a tree root
00:26:54in the flying dust.
00:26:59I actually find a few heavy,
00:27:02dirty, weird-looking stones.
00:27:07Mom says they're useless rocks
00:27:10and tells me to throw them away.
00:27:12But right as she reaches out,
00:27:14something weird happens again.
00:27:19The festwick dies on the spot
00:27:21and rolls right to Mom's feet.
00:27:25Aunt Grace called me a jinx.
00:27:27But now,
00:27:29God himself has delivered dinner to me.
00:27:41This is the first time
00:27:43I've ever had a full stomach.
00:27:44I don't have to shiver
00:27:46in a freezing haystack,
00:27:47and no one is pulling my hair.
00:27:50I eat the delicious chicken,
00:27:52and the air smells like pure happiness.
00:28:11Papa Arthur says his lungs feel warm
00:28:14and he can finally breathe easier.
00:28:17Mom says those white mushrooms we found
00:28:20will definitely sell for a good price.
00:28:23If we can buy medicine,
00:28:25Papa will be saved.
00:28:28The blowing yellow sand
00:28:30can't hide how run down the market is.
00:28:32Mom and I huddle in a corner,
00:28:34carefully laying out those lumpy white roots.
00:28:37I don't know it yet,
00:28:38but these wild mushrooms
00:28:40are called white gold
00:28:41on the tables of rich city folks.
00:28:43And then she started begging her cousin Mark.
00:28:47She kept pulling on his sleeve
00:28:50and crying.
00:28:52She wanted Mark Uncle
00:28:54to get Thomas out of jail.
00:29:02Mark is impatiently trying to push her away.
00:29:05Then he notices us in the corner.
00:29:10A Aunt Grace blames me
00:29:12for all her tragedies.
00:29:17Leone!
00:29:24Aunt Grace's face is uglier than dead bark
00:29:27in the Blackwood Forest.
00:29:30For the $5,000,
00:29:32she brought her bully cousin Mark,
00:29:34who works at the town hall.
00:29:36They stare at Mom and me like starving wolves.
00:29:42Mom and I guard our stall.
00:29:43It's our only hope to buy Papa's medicine.
00:29:52But Mark comes right up
00:29:54and kicks our basket over.
00:29:57Mark yells like crazy in the market,
00:29:59framing us for selling deadly poisonous mushrooms.
00:30:02Right in front of everyone,
00:30:04he crushes the white mushrooms
00:30:05we worked so hard to find,
00:30:07just like stepping on trash.
00:30:09Mark grabs the gray stones I found,
00:30:11calling us money-hungry scammers.
00:30:13With a loud bang,
00:30:15he smashes the rocks onto the ground.
00:30:17The sound of them breaking
00:30:19is the sound of my heart breaking.
00:30:21The crowd believes Mark.
00:30:23They point at us,
00:30:25calling us shameless.
00:30:26Their insults almost drown Mom and me.
00:30:29We're not scamming anyone.
00:30:32These really aren't poisonous mushrooms.
00:30:35That's not true.
00:30:36We're not lying.
00:30:40Mark doesn't care about poisonous mushrooms at all.
00:30:43He just wants the $5,000 Papa left us.
00:30:47He threatens Mom like a snake,
00:30:49saying if we don't pay protection money,
00:30:52he'll make us disappear from Oak Haven for good.
00:30:55To protect my life-saving money,
00:30:57Mom firmly rejects this hungry wolf.
00:31:00But it brings devastating revenge.
00:31:03Mark goes crazy.
00:31:04He flips our stall
00:31:06and crushes the white mushrooms
00:31:08that could save Papa Arthur into mud.
00:31:10I scream and pray for God
00:31:13to punish these bad people.
00:31:14But all I get is Aunt Grace's piercing cacker!
00:31:17You bad people!
00:31:19God is watching!
00:31:20He will definitely punish you!
00:31:23She points at my nose,
00:31:25calling me a naive little idiot,
00:31:27saying even Jesus couldn't save us now.
00:31:31Stop.
00:31:35I follow everyone's gaze
00:31:37and see two men walking in from the crowd.
00:31:40They dress completely differently from the townsfolk
00:31:43and they look incredibly distinguished.
00:31:52What the hell are you blind idiots doing?
00:31:57The old man with glasses kneels in the mud,
00:32:00holding the crushed pieces.
00:32:02His hands are shaking worse than dead leaves in autumn.
00:32:05I can feel how angry and heartbroken he is.
00:32:07At the time,
00:32:08I still didn't know
00:32:09just how precious those crushed white mushrooms were.
00:32:24Mark's face instantly drained of color,
00:32:27too terrified to speak.
00:32:29Meanwhile,
00:32:30Mr. Sterling,
00:32:31with his leopard cane,
00:32:32slowly walks toward the gray stones
00:32:35Aunt Grace smashed.
00:32:36In that moment,
00:32:38I think the sun fell into the stone.
00:32:40Beneath the dull gray surface,
00:32:42a dreamy deep purple light shines out.
00:32:45Mr. Sterling says,
00:32:47It's an extremely rare natural amethyst geob.
00:32:50Mr. Sterling goes crazy.
00:32:52He pulls out a thick stack of hundred dollar bills,
00:32:55enough to buy half the town,
00:32:57and shoves it into mom's hands.
00:32:59He says he'd give his entire fortune
00:33:01to buy all the trash stones I found.
00:33:03Seeing things go bad,
00:33:08Mark and Aunt Grace try to sneak away
00:33:10into the crowd like cowards.
00:33:12But the two men in black suits
00:33:15grab them by the collars
00:33:16and throw them hard
00:33:18into a filthy, stinking mud puddle.
00:33:24Mom's hands are shaking so much,
00:33:27she can barely hold the heavy stack of cash.
00:33:30She can't believe the rotten mushrooms
00:33:32and broken stones
00:33:33I casually picked up in the Blackwood Forest
00:33:36are actually worth more than gold.
00:33:39Mr. Sterling takes off his expensive top hat.
00:33:42He says,
00:33:43I'm an angel blessed by God.
00:33:45The villagers who used to point and gloss up
00:33:48are all shocked silent
00:33:50by this massive fortune.
00:33:52You just found these lying around?
00:33:55Good Lord, this child is absolutely
00:33:58a reincarnated angel.
00:34:00Only someone blessed by God
00:34:01could have such unbelievable luck.
00:34:03Mr. Sterling,
00:34:05I think we have an obligation
00:34:06to help this child
00:34:07get the compensation she deserves
00:34:09and make these scumbags
00:34:10face their punishment.
00:34:12The well-dressed lawyer steps forward.
00:34:15He calculates our damages
00:34:16at $3,500.
00:34:19That's an astrosnomical price.
00:34:22Enough to buy the whole town of Oakhaven.
00:34:25Mark doesn't want to pay the compensation.
00:34:28He tries to run towards
00:34:30a speeding coal train
00:34:31to hop on and escape.
00:34:36The bodyguard quickly drags him back
00:34:38from the train
00:34:38and pins him in the mud.
00:34:40He can't run anymore.
00:34:41The sheriff arrives
00:34:42and tells Aunt Grace
00:34:43that if she doesn't get the money together
00:34:45in 48 hours,
00:34:46she'll not only hand over
00:34:47Papa's farm that she stole,
00:34:49but she'll also rot in jail
00:34:50for the rest of her life.
00:34:58Late at night in Oakhaven,
00:34:59the wind tears at the ground
00:35:00like a mad beast.
00:35:01The old roof shakes,
00:35:03the drafty windows creak,
00:35:04but in the flickering light
00:35:05of the kerosene lamp,
00:35:06Aunt Grace is scarier than the storm.
00:35:07I found a picture today,
00:35:08a man in a uniform.
00:35:10I asked who he was.
00:35:10She said it was nothing,
00:35:12just someone who used to live here.
00:35:13The old roof shakes,
00:35:15the drafty windows crank.
00:35:17The $3,500 collection notice
00:35:21chokes her like a noose.
00:35:23Instead of repenting,
00:35:25Aunt Grace just stares at the document
00:35:26with the red thumbprint,
00:35:28plotting to steal the blood-soaked douching money
00:35:30under Grandma Ada's bed.
00:35:33Lightning flashes,
00:35:34lighting up Aunt Grace's soaked face.
00:35:37She raises cold plizers,
00:35:40snips the wire fence,
00:35:42and sneaks onto our farm.
00:36:00It rains so hard that night.
00:36:02The noise keeps me awake.
00:36:05I get up for a drink of water,
00:36:07having no idea danger is so close.
00:36:18The wind is so strong outside.
00:36:22I'm afraid the rain will ruin the wood floor,
00:36:25so I drag a big iron bucket over
00:36:27and force the window shut tight.
00:36:29I think closing the window
00:36:31will keep the storm out,
00:36:32but I don't notice the old frame is rotten.
00:36:36The second I turn around,
00:36:39Aunt Grace pries it open.
00:36:48I don't know the window is broken
00:36:51and might fall if opened one.
00:36:53Aunt Grace risks her life for that money.
00:36:56She squeezes inside,
00:36:58scraping the skin right off her waist.
00:37:03The metal clangs loudly in the dead of night.
00:37:07Aunt Grace flails like a funny puppet,
00:37:10desperately trying to grab something
00:37:12to steady herself.
00:37:13Please don't fall.
00:37:14But she grabs a wobbly shell.
00:37:24Grandma Ada taught me
00:37:26that quick live boils like a kettle
00:37:28when it hits water.
00:37:30Aunt Grace screams so miserably,
00:37:34but she wouldn't be hurt
00:37:36if she didn't sneak in
00:37:37through the window at midnight.
00:37:43Aunt Grace screams,
00:37:45smashes through the back door
00:37:46and plunges into the terrestrial rain.
00:37:48The quick line boils on her face.
00:37:51The burning blinds her,
00:37:53making her stumble through the mud.
00:37:57Help!
00:37:58Even the farm dog avoids that stinky pit.
00:38:01Aunt Grace used to call me
00:38:03the smelly beggar,
00:38:04but now,
00:38:05even the skunk living in the pit
00:38:07is disgusted by her.
00:38:10Aunt Grace crawls out of the cesspool,
00:38:12her mind still obsessed with the money.
00:38:15When she finds the heavy,
00:38:17locked metal box in the junk pile,
00:38:19her burned eyes gleam scarier
00:38:21than a demon's.
00:38:23A locked box!
00:38:24The money must be inside!
00:38:36The smell of gunpowder
00:38:37overpowers the rain,
00:38:39and Grandma Ada's furious shout
00:38:41tears through the night.
00:38:43Aunt Grace actually hits the gas
00:38:45through a hail of bullets.
00:38:47In the pouring rain,
00:38:49Aunt Grace laughs
00:38:50like a dying maniac
00:38:52in a speeding truck.
00:38:58This 5,000s is all mine!
00:39:00She hugs the metal box to her chest,
00:39:03thinking she holds
00:39:04all the wealth in the world
00:39:05and has finally beaten everyone.
00:39:10Grandma Ada holds her shotgun,
00:39:12anxious to chase her.
00:39:14I stand barefoot in the mud
00:39:16and gently tug her wet shirt
00:39:18to remind her.
00:39:19Uncle Thomas told me before
00:39:21that whenever it storms,
00:39:22the wooden bridge over there
00:39:24floods completely.
00:39:28La la la!
00:39:30La la la la la!
00:39:33The truck in the storm
00:39:34is like a wild beast
00:39:36out of control.
00:39:37I.E. Grace screams madly
00:39:38in the cab.
00:39:39When she sees the river
00:39:40completely swallowing the bridge,
00:39:42she falls into total despair.
00:39:49The crash shatters the rain.
00:39:52Aunt Grace doesn't die,
00:39:54but she lands somewhere
00:39:55worse than hell.
00:39:57Major Evans'
00:39:58military restricted zone.
00:40:01Money.
00:40:03My money.
00:40:05A dozen black Thompson
00:40:06submachine guns
00:40:07aim right at her head.
00:40:10Major steps forward
00:40:11in his raincoat
00:40:13with a cold face.
00:40:14I told you not to flee.
00:40:16Where do you think
00:40:17you're driving,
00:40:17Ms. Grace?
00:40:25It's over.
00:40:27It's all over.
00:40:31The stench from the truck
00:40:32is more nauseating
00:40:33than a rotting corpse
00:40:35in the black forest.
00:40:36It's the smell
00:40:37of cesspooled water
00:40:38mixed with Aunt Grace's
00:40:39food.
00:40:41Even as the MPs
00:40:42drag her into the mud,
00:40:43she clings
00:40:45to the heavy metal box.
00:40:46While Aunt Grace
00:40:47dreams of being rich,
00:40:49Grandma Ada arrives
00:40:50with me on her
00:40:50roaring tractor.
00:40:52Grandma looks at
00:40:53Aunt Grace in the mud
00:40:54and laughs
00:40:55with sheer contempt
00:40:57because the real
00:40:58pension runner
00:40:58rests safely
00:40:59under the Hanson
00:41:00family's bed.
00:41:05Grandma Ada
00:41:06tells Major Evans
00:41:07the truth
00:41:08and he pries
00:41:10open the heavy
00:41:10padlock
00:41:11with the dagger
00:41:11and with a loud
00:41:13clank,
00:41:14Aunt Grace's dream
00:41:15shatters completely.
00:41:26Stealing private property.
00:41:29Go join your husband
00:41:30in prison.
00:41:31Take her away.
00:41:43My once arrogant
00:41:44aunt and uncle
00:41:46now look like
00:41:47two cornered rabbits
00:41:49facing their
00:41:50final judgment.
00:41:52Grandma doesn't
00:41:53carry her
00:41:54scary shotgun
00:41:55today.
00:41:56She puts me
00:41:57in a new lace dress
00:41:58and holds my hand
00:42:00stepping into the light
00:42:02like a guardian angel.
00:42:03This is all on you!
00:42:04Uncle Thomas'
00:42:05mental defenses
00:42:05completely break down
00:42:07and he roars
00:42:08at Aunt Grace.
00:42:09Facing 20 years
00:42:10in prison,
00:42:11he doesn't hesitate
00:42:12to sign his name.
00:42:22The gavel
00:42:23bangs down
00:42:24hard.
00:42:25The judge
00:42:26declares that
00:42:27the farm
00:42:27and all the wealth
00:42:28dad left me
00:42:29are finally back
00:42:31in my hands.
00:42:32Now.
00:42:39The judge
00:42:40usually looks
00:42:41so mean
00:42:42and everyone
00:42:43is scared of him.
00:42:45But today
00:42:46he bends down
00:42:47and smiles at us.
00:42:49Just like the
00:42:50chubby man in town
00:42:51who loves
00:42:51giving kids candy.
00:42:55Aunt Grace
00:42:56used to plug
00:42:57her nose
00:42:57disgusted
00:42:58by the moldy
00:42:59barn smell
00:43:00on me.
00:43:01But now
00:43:02she stinks
00:43:03so bad
00:43:04that even I
00:43:05have to turn
00:43:05my head
00:43:06and pinch
00:43:06my nose.
00:43:08Remember
00:43:09that freezing
00:43:10barn you
00:43:10kicked Leonie
00:43:11into on
00:43:11that stormy
00:43:12day?
00:43:13From today
00:43:14on,
00:43:15that broken
00:43:16barn is yours.
00:43:17The guards
00:43:18can't stand
00:43:19Aunt Grace's
00:43:19sour stench.
00:43:20They drag her
00:43:21out and her
00:43:22screams echo
00:43:23through the hall.
00:43:25The adults
00:43:26surround me,
00:43:27smiling and
00:43:28calling me
00:43:29a lucky little
00:43:29angel.
00:43:30But I don't
00:43:31care.
00:43:32All I know
00:43:33is that Grandma's
00:43:34hand holding mine
00:43:35is big and warm
00:43:36and no one
00:43:37will ever force
00:43:38me into a
00:43:39freezing barn again.
00:43:43I used to
00:43:44think this dirt
00:43:44could only
00:43:45grow hard
00:43:45rocks and
00:43:46starved
00:43:46bugs.
00:43:48Only today
00:43:49do I realize
00:43:49it can grow
00:43:50so much
00:43:51wheat that
00:43:51looks like
00:43:52pure gold.
00:43:55Grandma
00:43:56laughed so
00:43:56loudly today.
00:44:01good girl.
00:44:02Look,
00:44:03these are all
00:44:04gifts from
00:44:04God.
00:44:05That neither
00:44:06of us notices
00:44:07Miss Ella
00:44:07staring at me.
00:44:09She looks
00:44:09exactly like
00:44:10Aunt Grace
00:44:11used to
00:44:11when she
00:44:12wanted to
00:44:12hit me.
00:44:13Miss Ella
00:44:14yells at
00:44:14James.
00:44:15They want
00:44:16this most
00:44:16fertile land
00:44:17in town.
00:44:19Miss Ella
00:44:19looks at me
00:44:19so fiercely
00:44:20as if she
00:44:21wants to rush
00:44:22over and eat
00:44:23me alive.
00:44:31If that
00:44:31damn old
00:44:32hack won't
00:44:32give it to
00:44:33us,
00:44:33we'll just
00:44:34take it
00:44:34ourselves.
00:44:35Take it?
00:44:36How?
00:44:36That land is
00:44:37in the name
00:44:38of that
00:44:38little bastard
00:44:38Leonie.
00:44:43Then we'll
00:44:44find a way
00:44:44to switch
00:44:45the deeds.
00:44:46Greedy snakes
00:44:47can never
00:44:48fill their
00:44:48bottomless pit
00:44:49of desire.
00:44:51Blood ties
00:44:52don't bring
00:44:52family love.
00:44:54They just
00:44:54become an
00:44:55excuse to
00:44:55steal.
00:45:00Greedy James
00:45:01brings his
00:45:02dark secrets
00:45:03and knocks
00:45:04on the
00:45:04back door
00:45:05of power
00:45:06just like
00:45:07a sewer rat.
00:45:12I only
00:45:13learn later
00:45:14that there's
00:45:14a scary magic
00:45:15in the adult
00:45:16world.
00:45:17If you
00:45:18secretly give
00:45:19the mayor
00:45:19a special
00:45:20gift,
00:45:20your wishes
00:45:21come true.
00:45:26James uses
00:45:27tobacco and
00:45:28money to
00:45:28trade for
00:45:29the Fertilile
00:45:29farm under
00:45:30my name.
00:45:43James,
00:45:44your appetite
00:45:46is way
00:45:47bigger than
00:45:48your dying
00:45:48brother's.
00:46:01Power
00:46:02completely
00:46:03surrenders
00:46:04to money.
00:46:06The mayor
00:46:08accepts
00:46:08James'
00:46:09gift.
00:46:28take it,
00:46:29James.
00:46:29With this
00:46:30requisition order,
00:46:31that Fertile
00:46:31land is yours
00:46:32by sunrise
00:46:33tomorrow.
00:46:48we move to
00:46:49the place
00:46:50they call
00:46:50the rocky
00:46:51land.
00:46:51There's nothing
00:46:52here but bare
00:46:53rocks and cold
00:46:54wind.
00:46:58Grandma
00:46:59Ada is frowning
00:47:00so hard.
00:47:07This year's
00:47:08harvest is
00:47:09totally ruined,
00:47:10sweetie.
00:47:11We might
00:47:12starve.
00:47:13I see how sad
00:47:14Grandma is,
00:47:15and my heart
00:47:16feels like it's
00:47:17crushed by a rock,
00:47:18but I don't want
00:47:19to make her sadder.
00:47:20I remember
00:47:21Grandma Ada
00:47:22said,
00:47:23as long as there
00:47:23is hope,
00:47:24there's nothing
00:47:25to fear.
00:47:25Don't worry,
00:47:26Grandma.
00:47:27I can grow
00:47:27pretty flowers
00:47:28even in the rocks.
00:47:29I just want
00:47:30to do something.
00:47:31Even if it's
00:47:32just digging
00:47:33a little hole,
00:47:34I believe my luck
00:47:35will definitely
00:47:36help us.
00:47:38Right then,
00:47:39something weird
00:47:40happens.
00:47:41The ground
00:47:41starts shaking
00:47:42violently.
00:47:43I feel the rocks
00:47:44under my feet
00:47:45jumping like
00:47:46they're alive.
00:47:47Danger!
00:47:48Leonis,
00:47:49get out of the way!
00:47:51Ah!
00:47:57This morning,
00:47:58a lot of people
00:47:59suddenly come
00:48:00to our farm.
00:48:03It's James,
00:48:05Miss Ella,
00:48:05and the mayor.
00:48:07They look
00:48:07really mean.
00:48:09They use
00:48:09big adult words
00:48:10I don't understand.
00:48:12I just see
00:48:13Grandma Ada
00:48:14shaking with anger
00:48:15because they want
00:48:15to trade a barren
00:48:16wasteland
00:48:17for our golden
00:48:18wheat field.
00:48:22Trade?
00:48:23James,
00:48:24do you think
00:48:24I'm an idiot?
00:48:25Not even weeds
00:48:26can grow on that land!
00:48:28Don't waste
00:48:28your breath on her!
00:48:29Quick,
00:48:30pull up the
00:48:30boundary markers
00:48:31and put ours in!
00:48:32This is our land now!
00:48:33Grandma nailed
00:48:34that marker herself.
00:48:35When it falls,
00:48:37my heart hurts
00:48:38so much.
00:48:39You robbers!
00:48:40I'll fight you
00:48:41to the death!
00:48:43Ah!
00:48:44Those two guns
00:48:45are so, so close
00:48:46to Grandma's head.
00:48:47For the first time,
00:48:48I realize a hunting
00:48:49rifle isn't scary
00:48:50at all.
00:48:50Mrs. Hanson,
00:48:51calm down,
00:48:52or we'll arrest you
00:48:53for obstructing justice.
00:48:55No!
00:48:56Don't kill
00:48:57my Grandma!
00:48:58No!
00:48:58What's really scary
00:48:59is when others
00:49:00point guns at us.
00:49:08Just sign it,
00:49:09Mrs. Hanson.
00:49:10You don't want
00:49:11this little girl
00:49:12watching you
00:49:12get taken away,
00:49:13do you?
00:49:14Grandma Ada
00:49:14looks at me
00:49:15crying in fear.
00:49:17She closes her eyes
00:49:19and agrees
00:49:20and agrees
00:49:20to sign
00:49:20the contract.
00:49:23I grip
00:49:24Grandma's clothes
00:49:25tight.
00:49:26I'm worried
00:49:27she's in danger.
00:49:28I see her eyes
00:49:29turn red
00:49:30and my heart aches,
00:49:32but I don't know
00:49:33what to do.
00:49:41You old hag!
00:49:43Take this unlucky
00:49:44little stray
00:49:45and get all
00:49:45my property
00:49:46right now!
00:49:47Go eat dirt
00:49:48in that rocky
00:49:49wasteland!
00:49:55The ground
00:49:56shakes like
00:49:56a thousand
00:49:57wild horses
00:49:58running under
00:49:59my feet.
00:50:00My feet go numb.
00:50:01I shut my eyes
00:50:02tight thinking
00:50:03I really messed up
00:50:04and dug up
00:50:05a sleeping demon
00:50:06with my
00:50:06rusty little shovel.
00:50:08I've never seen
00:50:09such a scary
00:50:10and awesome sight.
00:50:12The black liquid
00:50:13shoots up so high
00:50:14and rains down,
00:50:16splashing all over
00:50:17me and Grandma.
00:50:18This weird rain
00:50:19is black
00:50:20and stinky.
00:50:21It sticks to my face
00:50:22and ruins
00:50:23my only clean dress.
00:50:25I look at Grandma
00:50:26nervously,
00:50:27terrified she's
00:50:28going to blow up
00:50:29over this awful
00:50:30prank.
00:50:31But I notice
00:50:32Grandma Ada
00:50:32isn't mad at all.
00:50:34Her weathered face
00:50:35instantly twists
00:50:36into this extreme,
00:50:38almost crazy joy.
00:50:39This isn't muddy water.
00:50:40It's crude oil.
00:50:42It's oil.
00:50:43Thank God
00:50:44we struck oil.
00:50:45I don't know
00:50:46what oil is,
00:50:47but I can taste
00:50:48Grandma's happy tears.
00:50:51In this black rain,
00:50:53we hug each other
00:50:54so tight.
00:50:57Not long after
00:50:59that black rain,
00:51:00a bunch of big
00:51:01shoops come to town.
00:51:03They head straight
00:51:04for this rocky wasteland
00:51:05that even the devil
00:51:07wouldn't look
00:51:07twice at her.
00:51:21Congratulations,
00:51:22Mrs. Hanson.
00:51:23Your granddaughter
00:51:24is a true
00:51:25lucky angel.
00:51:26A bunch of guys
00:51:27in expensive suits
00:51:28step out of the cars.
00:51:30They use weird gadgets
00:51:31to dig and measure
00:51:32all over the place.
00:51:36Mr. Sterling,
00:51:38initial surveys show
00:51:39the most massive
00:51:41shallow oil field
00:51:42in the entire state
00:51:44is hidden
00:51:45right under here.
00:51:46The value
00:51:47is immeasurable.
00:51:48I don't understand
00:51:49what they're saying,
00:51:50but I see Mr. Sterling
00:51:51pull out
00:51:52a really big
00:51:53piece of paper
00:51:54with lots
00:51:55and lots
00:51:56of zeros on it.
00:51:57Starting today,
00:51:58an oil company
00:51:59named after you
00:51:59is officially founded.
00:52:00Congratulations,
00:52:01my little
00:52:02black gold Tycara.
00:52:03In that moment,
00:52:04I feel like
00:52:05I'm dreaming.
00:52:06Mr. Sterling
00:52:07calls me
00:52:07a black gold Tycone.
00:52:09I don't really
00:52:10get what that means,
00:52:11but he tells me
00:52:12we'll never
00:52:12go hungry again.
00:52:16Aunt Ella
00:52:16and Uncle James
00:52:17stand on the
00:52:18fertile farm
00:52:19they stole.
00:52:20They look at
00:52:20the rocky land
00:52:21they tossed away
00:52:22like trash,
00:52:23now swarming
00:52:24with rich people,
00:52:25and they are going
00:52:26absolutely crazy
00:52:27with jealousy.
00:52:28Damn it!
00:52:29That land
00:52:30was ours!
00:52:31We threw it away!
00:52:34At least we still
00:52:35have the best
00:52:35wheat field in town.
00:52:36We'll strike it rich
00:52:37in the fall anyway.
00:52:39That little bit of
00:52:40oil they have
00:52:40will probably dry up
00:52:41real soon.
00:52:42Miss Ella
00:52:42is still dreaming
00:52:43of getting rich,
00:52:45but she doesn't know
00:52:46that God's judgment
00:52:48never spares
00:52:49a greedy soul.
00:52:50I see a huge
00:52:51dark cloud
00:52:52flying in.
00:52:55As it gets closer,
00:52:57I realize
00:52:58it's not a cloud
00:52:59at all.
00:53:00It's millions
00:53:01of gross bugs.
00:53:12No!
00:53:14My wheat field!
00:53:16James' screams
00:53:17echo across
00:53:18the empty farm.
00:53:19That golden wheat field
00:53:21is just completely
00:53:23eaten up by the bugs.
00:53:27Mr. Sterling
00:53:28tells me
00:53:28God rewards
00:53:30the good
00:53:30but also punishes
00:53:31the bad guys
00:53:32who bully us
00:53:33without mercy.
00:53:34Once I use
00:53:35this money
00:53:35to buy off
00:53:36the state senator,
00:53:38I'll get out
00:53:38of this hellhole
00:53:39and be a real
00:53:40big shot
00:53:41in Washington.
00:53:42He sends
00:53:43the toughest lawyers
00:53:44and cops
00:53:45to find that
00:53:46evil mayor.
00:53:47Those gentlemen
00:53:47in black suits
00:53:48burst right into
00:53:49that room
00:53:50full of lies.
00:53:51Mr. Mayor,
00:53:52this is all the evidence
00:53:53of your corruption,
00:53:54bribery,
00:53:54and abuse of power.
00:53:56You're under arrest.
00:53:57Just like superheroes
00:53:58dropping from the sky
00:54:00in movies.
00:54:01Seeing the bad guy
00:54:02get punished
00:54:02makes me feel so good.
00:54:04This can't be happening!
00:54:05Let go of me!
00:54:06I can give you money!
00:54:08Turns out,
00:54:09there really is justice
00:54:10in this world.
00:54:14The bugs
00:54:15eat all the crops.
00:54:17Miss Ellie kneels
00:54:18in the messy mud
00:54:19without a shred
00:54:20of dignity,
00:54:21like a soulless corpse.
00:54:22Miss Ellie cries
00:54:24so hard.
00:54:25She probably
00:54:26doesn't get
00:54:26why God's bugs
00:54:27only ate
00:54:28the fertile wheat field
00:54:29they stole from us.
00:54:30God!
00:54:31It's all God!
00:54:33We're bankrupt!
00:54:35Ah!
00:54:40A lot of big machines
00:54:42I've never seen before
00:54:43arrive on this rocky land.
00:54:46Mr. Sterling says,
00:54:47they'll make us
00:54:48so much money,
00:54:49I won't be able
00:54:50to spend it all
00:54:51in a lifetime.
00:54:59So many people
00:55:00are here today
00:55:01and they're all cheering.
00:55:03I'm so happy
00:55:04because Grandma Ida
00:55:05and I have new clothes on.
00:55:07She takes my hand
00:55:09and we cut the red ribbon.
00:55:12Grandma said flowers
00:55:14planted in rocks
00:55:15bloom brighter
00:55:16than any other.
00:55:18Now,
00:55:19our harsh winter
00:55:20is finally over completely.
00:55:27On this land,
00:55:28we live a peaceful
00:55:30and wealthy life.
00:55:34But I don't know
00:55:35that while we smile
00:55:36in the sun,
00:55:37a venomous snake
00:55:38in the dark
00:55:39is already eyeing us.
00:55:42The news of the oil field
00:55:44attracts someone
00:55:45even greedier
00:55:46than a wild wolf.
00:55:47Forced my downs
00:55:49are too low class.
00:55:50All I need
00:55:51is to snatch
00:55:52Lyonnais' custody
00:55:53and this oil field
00:55:55is mine.
00:55:57For money
00:55:58and revenge,
00:55:59they sell
00:56:00Grandma Ida
00:56:01and me out.
00:56:06Ida is vulgar
00:56:07and mentally unstable.
00:56:09She carries
00:56:10a hunting rifle
00:56:11everywhere,
00:56:12has violent tendencies
00:56:13and constantly
00:56:15abuses Lyonnais.
00:56:17Excellent!
00:56:18She's unfit
00:56:20to raise Lyonnais.
00:56:21I'll be taking
00:56:21over her custody.
00:56:23McClain files
00:56:25a petition
00:56:25to change
00:56:27guardianship
00:56:27at the court,
00:56:28shattering
00:56:29my peaceful life
00:56:30with Grandma Ida.
00:56:33It's a rare,
00:56:35sweet moment,
00:56:36but the screech
00:56:37of brakes shatters
00:56:38the peace.
00:56:39Two bailiffs
00:56:40step out of the car
00:56:42and walk straight up
00:56:43to Grandma Ida.
00:56:44Hello, Mrs. Hanson.
00:56:45We're from the city court.
00:56:46Someone reported you
00:56:47for child abuse
00:56:48and is demanding you
00:56:49hand over Lyonnais' custody.
00:56:50Grandma Ida
00:56:51is stunned.
00:56:52Once she snaps out of it,
00:56:54she loudly protests
00:56:55and swears
00:56:56she never abused
00:56:57any child.
00:56:59I swear on my life,
00:57:00Grandma Ida
00:57:01is the best person
00:57:03in the world!
00:57:04She has never abused me!
00:57:06Sorry, we're just here
00:57:07to notify you.
00:57:08Direct any questions
00:57:09to the hearing
00:57:10next Wednesday.
00:57:10Until then,
00:57:11you are forbidden
00:57:12from transferring
00:57:12any assets
00:57:13under the girl's name.
00:57:14But my promise
00:57:15is useless
00:57:16because everything
00:57:17will be decided
00:57:18in court.
00:57:20The hearing proceeds
00:57:22as scheduled.
00:57:23For Grandma Ida
00:57:23and me,
00:57:24this isn't a fair trial
00:57:25at all.
00:57:26It's a brutal,
00:57:27one-sided execution.
00:57:28McClain hired
00:57:29top-tirt lawyer Barry
00:57:30with serious cash
00:57:31while we could only
00:57:33find Mr. Sterling.
00:57:34Mrs. Hanson,
00:57:35do you have any idea
00:57:36how to raise
00:57:37a multi-million dollar girl?
00:57:39Or is your only skill
00:57:41abusing people
00:57:42and feeding pigs?
00:57:43You!
00:57:44Lawyer Barry,
00:57:45you should know
00:57:45that you need to present
00:57:46evidence for your claims.
00:57:48Of course.
00:57:48Don't you worry about that.
00:57:50Lawyer Barry
00:57:51uses fancy legal talk
00:57:53to paint Grandma Ida
00:57:54as a violent,
00:57:55ignorant village woman.
00:57:57What's worse,
00:57:59the devil's accomplices
00:58:00take the stand.
00:58:01Your Honor,
00:58:02I saw with my own eyes
00:58:04how Ida forced
00:58:06Leonid to sleep
00:58:07in the barn
00:58:07and eat scraps.
00:58:09You two animals,
00:58:11shut up!
00:58:12Ella,
00:58:12you're crossing the line.
00:58:14James,
00:58:14is this how you
00:58:15treat your own mother?
00:58:16They take every single
00:58:18horrific thing
00:58:19they did to me
00:58:20and pin it all
00:58:21on Grandma Ida
00:58:22who loves me.
00:58:23Order!
00:58:25If you dare
00:58:26to show contempt
00:58:27of court again,
00:58:28I'll have the bailiffs
00:58:29throw you all
00:58:29in jail instantly.
00:58:30The judge has already
00:58:32been bought off
00:58:33by McClane.
00:58:34He doesn't listen
00:58:34to a word be say.
00:58:36The court leans
00:58:37towards revoking
00:58:38Ada's guardianship,
00:58:39transferring it
00:58:41to McClane's foundation
00:58:42and sending Leonide
00:58:44to a closed boarding school
00:58:45on the East Coast.
00:58:47A closed school
00:58:49means I'll be totally
00:58:50at McClane's mercy
00:58:52and our oil wealth
00:58:53will be completely
00:58:54swallowed up.
00:58:55I won't go to school.
00:58:56I don't want to leave
00:58:58Grandma Ada.
00:59:02Everyone holds
00:59:04their breath.
00:59:04The judge
00:59:05is about to strip
00:59:06Grandma Ada
00:59:07of my custody.
00:59:08Whatever is on
00:59:09that paper
00:59:10decides my fate.
00:59:12The bad guys'
00:59:13wicked laughs
00:59:14drill into my ears.
00:59:16Their dirty revenge
00:59:18is about to succeed.
00:59:20Grandma Ada
00:59:21hugs me tight,
00:59:23completely desperate.
00:59:24I glare at those
00:59:25monsters through my tears.
00:59:27I absolutely can't
00:59:28let them take
00:59:29everything from me.
00:59:33I see the massive
00:59:34chandelier crash down,
00:59:36smashing the briefcase
00:59:38next to the judge.
00:59:40Countless papers
00:59:42fly everywhere.
00:59:43Mr. Sterling
00:59:45grabs some key documents.
00:59:46He announces
00:59:47to the courtroom
00:59:48that it's evidence
00:59:49of the judge
00:59:50taking bribes
00:59:51from the sickle.
00:59:52The proof
00:59:53is solid.
00:59:54All their dirty deals
00:59:56are exposed.
00:59:57Despicable!
00:59:58They ganged up
00:59:58to take Leone away.
01:00:00But now it's all out
01:00:00in the open.
01:00:01Their plot fails.
01:00:02We're done for.
01:00:03Mr. Sterling
01:00:04calls the police.
01:00:06McLean's plot
01:00:07is completely ruined.
01:00:09And Miss Ella
01:00:10and the others
01:00:11will get what they deserve.
01:00:13McLean,
01:00:15your dirty money
01:00:16can buy a judge.
01:00:17But it can't buy
01:00:19real justice.
01:00:34Grandma Ada
01:00:35chooses to let
01:00:37Mom Martha
01:00:38hide me
01:00:38in the cellar
01:00:39while she faces
01:00:40the Mafia head-on.
01:01:03Give me ten minutes
01:01:05to think about it.
01:01:12Grandma pretends
01:01:13to give in
01:01:13just to keep me safe.
01:01:23Grandma Ada
01:01:25has already decided
01:01:27to fight the Mafia
01:01:28to the end
01:01:29and Dad Arthur
01:01:31asks Sheriff Harry
01:01:33for backup.
01:01:40The mobsters
01:01:42get ready to strike
01:01:44but Grandma Ada
01:01:48is faster.
01:01:52Damn it!
01:01:53They have guns!
01:01:54You scumbags
01:01:55want to steal
01:01:56my granddaughter's land?
01:01:58Get off my property
01:01:59right now
01:02:00or I'll send you
01:02:01to hell!
01:02:05The bribe judge
01:02:06is taken away
01:02:07by the police.
01:02:08I finally return
01:02:10to Grandma Ada
01:02:11and the greedy
01:02:12James and Ella
01:02:13become abandoned pawns.
01:02:28damn you Ada
01:02:29this isn't over.
01:02:31McLan doesn't
01:02:33just let it go
01:02:33he finds
01:02:34the local Mafia
01:02:35ready to use
01:02:37violence.
01:02:43Just when we think
01:02:45everything is peaceful
01:02:46again
01:02:46McLan's revenge
01:02:48hits fast
01:02:49way beyond
01:02:51what any of us
01:02:51expected.
01:02:52I'll go check it out.
01:02:55I walk out
01:02:56with Grandma Ada
01:02:57and the others.
01:02:58We see several cars
01:02:59without license cards
01:03:01smashed through
01:03:02the farm gate
01:03:03like mad bulls
01:03:04completely blocking
01:03:05our escape.
01:03:11They claim
01:03:12McLean sent them.
01:03:14They threaten
01:03:14Grandma Ada
01:03:15to sell the oil field
01:03:16to them dirt cheap
01:03:17but she refuses
01:03:18to give in.
01:03:19They only give us
01:03:2010 minutes.
01:03:21After 10 minutes
01:03:22they'll make their move.
01:03:28I wake up
01:03:29to find my hands
01:03:30tied to a rotting
01:03:30wooden post.
01:03:31Ella and James
01:03:32are like wolves
01:03:33ready to devour me.
01:03:34Once we get the money
01:03:35we'll throw you down
01:03:37an abandoned mine shaft
01:03:38to feed the rats!
01:03:39Let's go.
01:03:40We should check
01:03:41the situation outside.
01:03:43They leave
01:03:44and I'm all alone
01:03:45in the abandoned mine.
01:03:47I'm so scared
01:03:48but I can't just
01:03:48do nothing.
01:03:49They'll use me
01:03:50to threaten
01:03:50Grandma Ada.
01:03:51I can't let them
01:03:52get away with it.
01:03:53Thank God
01:03:54the lalt rope
01:03:55falls off on its own.
01:03:58Is that firefly
01:03:59leading the way
01:04:00for me?
01:04:10The little bitch
01:04:12escaped!
01:04:12Miss Ella
01:04:13quickly notices
01:04:14I'm gone.
01:04:15She and James
01:04:16are searching for me.
01:04:20The harsh light
01:04:21flashes right past
01:04:22my feet.
01:04:23I'm gonna be found.
01:04:25What do I do?
01:04:26Save me,
01:04:27Grandma Ada.
01:04:28Dad!
01:04:29Dad!
01:04:30Dad!
01:04:34Dad!
01:04:35To protect me
01:04:35and our home,
01:04:37Grandma Odd
01:04:37and Dad Arthur
01:04:38get into a shootout
01:04:40with the mob.
01:04:44But nobody knows
01:04:46that two greedy coyotes
01:04:48are sneaking
01:04:50into our
01:04:51defenseless backyard.
01:05:06that bitch
01:05:06Martha took
01:05:07the little bastard
01:05:08in there.
01:05:09This is our best chance.
01:05:11Whether the mob
01:05:12or mother wins,
01:05:13we're dead either way.
01:05:15Catching Lionel
01:05:15is our only leverage.
01:05:24The constant gunshots
01:05:26outside make me super anxious.
01:05:29Just then,
01:05:30the cellar door
01:05:30suddenly opens.
01:05:32Is it Grandma
01:05:32Ada and the others
01:05:33coming back?
01:05:34Grandma Ada?
01:05:40It's you!
01:05:42Get out of here
01:05:43right now!
01:05:44My dear sister Martha,
01:05:46that old hag
01:05:47Ada is busy
01:05:47fighting the mob.
01:05:49Let's see who comes
01:05:50to save you this time.
01:05:51They'll want to kidnap me,
01:05:52but Mom Martha
01:05:53stands in front of me
01:05:55to protect me.
01:06:01Stop fighting,
01:06:02you little brat!
01:06:03You're our cash cow!
01:06:04Ella grabs me,
01:06:05clamping a towel
01:06:06soaked in pungent chemicals
01:06:08tightly over my nose
01:06:09and mouth.
01:06:10Intense busyness
01:06:11instantly pierces my brain.
01:06:13Hurry up!
01:06:13Get her in the sack!
01:06:14We don't have much time!
01:06:16Grandma Ada
01:06:16and the others
01:06:17hide in the cellar
01:06:18to dodge the mob,
01:06:19but...
01:06:23Martha, wake up!
01:06:28Mother Arthur,
01:06:30James and Ella
01:06:32took Leonese.
01:06:35Grandma Ada
01:06:36and the others
01:06:37are trapped.
01:06:38The mob
01:06:39is searching for us.
01:06:41Grandma Ada
01:06:42and Dad Arthur
01:06:43wait for Sheriff Harry,
01:06:45but he doesn't show up
01:06:46because the mob
01:06:47has him pinned down too.
01:06:50It's all my fault.
01:06:52I didn't protect
01:06:53Leonese.
01:06:55Mom lost me,
01:06:57and she feels
01:06:58incredibly guilty.
01:07:03Let's take them down
01:07:04with us.
01:07:09The mob finds
01:07:10Mom Martha
01:07:11and the others.
01:07:22you're out of bullets,
01:07:23right?
01:07:25Say your prayers.
01:07:27But right then,
01:07:29a deafening roar
01:07:30interrupts Victor.
01:07:37Who's this nosy bastard?
01:07:39You got a death wish?
01:07:41You got a death wish?
01:07:57Where is my daughter?
01:07:58Leo!
01:08:01Leo needs
01:08:02real father!
01:08:06That tall man,
01:08:08like a god of war,
01:08:10my father Leo,
01:08:12rushes to Grandma
01:08:12anxiously,
01:08:14asking where I am.
01:08:16Grandma Ada
01:08:17blasts the venomous
01:08:18McLean's plant
01:08:19and Ella's
01:08:20shameless kidnapping.
01:08:22Luckily,
01:08:23Sheriff Harry
01:08:23arrives at the scene
01:08:24and quickly
01:08:25takes down
01:08:26the rest of the mobsters.
01:08:30Mrs. Hanson,
01:08:31please forgive me
01:08:32for being late.
01:08:33That mob
01:08:33sent people
01:08:34to block us.
01:08:35Seeing my father alive,
01:08:37Sheriff Harry
01:08:38is so shocked
01:08:38he can barely
01:08:39hold his gun.
01:08:40My father explains
01:08:41he faked his death
01:08:42to carry out
01:08:43a top secret mission.
01:08:44By the way,
01:08:45my men saw
01:08:46Ella and James
01:08:47heading toward
01:08:47the abandoned mine
01:08:48out west.
01:08:49Thank you, Harry.
01:08:57But right now,
01:08:59the blinding flashlight beam
01:09:01pins me down
01:09:01like a viper's tongue.
01:09:03Catch her!
01:09:04She can't get far!
01:09:05I can't let them
01:09:06catch me.
01:09:07That'll just cause
01:09:08more trouble
01:09:09for Grandma Ada.
01:09:11Save me, Dad.
01:09:23I run through the tunnel
01:09:25for my life,
01:09:26but those heavy footsteps
01:09:28follow me
01:09:30like a death sentence.
01:09:31James catches up
01:09:32to me quickly.
01:09:34He grabs my hair tight,
01:09:35slams me hard
01:09:36onto the cold,
01:09:37rocky ground,
01:09:38and talks with Miss Ella
01:09:40about breaking my legs.
01:09:41The huge rock
01:09:42is about to smash
01:09:43my legs.
01:09:44I can almost hear
01:09:45my bones breaking.
01:09:46Someone,
01:09:47please save me.
01:09:49Who?
01:09:50Who is it?
01:09:50Do you have any idea
01:09:51who you're messing with?
01:09:55No!
01:09:56Don't kill me!
01:09:57You can take the girl.
01:09:58She's worth an oil field.
01:09:59You'll be rich!
01:10:00I hear Ella's terrified voice
01:10:02in the dark.
01:10:03Did someone save me?
01:10:05No!
01:10:20Dad?
01:10:26Dad?
01:10:27It's Dad.
01:10:27He saves me.
01:10:29I knew he wasn't dead.
01:10:30My daughter,
01:10:31Leonith.
01:10:32Dad's embrace
01:10:33is as warm
01:10:34as the midday sun.
01:10:36It instantly drives away
01:10:37all the cold
01:10:38and fear
01:10:39in the mine.
01:10:40Dad carefully
01:10:41checks me for injuries.
01:10:43Luckily,
01:10:44Miss Ella
01:10:44and the others
01:10:45haven't hurt me yet.
01:10:47Dad takes me
01:10:48out of the pitch black mine.
01:10:50Grandma Ada
01:10:50and the others
01:10:51find us too.
01:10:53Grandma Ada
01:10:53checks every inch of me.
01:10:55She only relaxes
01:10:56after making sure
01:10:57I'm not hurt.
01:10:59Leonie!
01:11:00My sweet baby!
01:11:02Are you okay?
01:11:04Grandma Ada
01:11:05furiously scolds
01:11:06Miss Ella
01:11:07and James.
01:11:09Sheriff Harry arrives
01:11:10and arrests them.
01:11:11The bad guys
01:11:12are taken away.
01:11:13No!
01:11:14Mother,
01:11:14please forgive me!
01:11:16It's over.
01:11:17It's all over.
01:11:18No!
01:11:19And Dad
01:11:20is finally back.
01:11:21I hold Grandma's hand
01:11:23tightly with one hand
01:11:24and grip Dad broad,
01:11:26warm hand
01:11:27with the other.
01:11:32Dad promises me
01:11:33he will come back.
01:11:34Grandma Ada
01:11:35tells me
01:11:36Dad is going
01:11:37to catch the bad guy,
01:11:38the one behind
01:11:39this whole conspiracy.
01:11:42Dad tells me
01:11:43to stay here
01:11:44and be good.
01:11:45He has to go
01:11:47take care of something.
01:12:01Glane messes
01:12:02everything up.
01:12:03After finding out
01:12:04Dad's identity,
01:12:05he decides
01:12:06to flee immediately.
01:12:09Dammit!
01:12:10Why does he have
01:12:11a military background?
01:12:20McLean jumps
01:12:21into his car
01:12:21in a panic.
01:12:22But they don't even
01:12:23make it out
01:12:24of the estate gates.
01:12:25Get us out of here
01:12:27as fast as you can.
01:12:28Now!
01:12:34My dad blocks
01:12:35their way.
01:12:36McLean gives the order
01:12:38and the car
01:12:39doesn't slow down.
01:12:40They want
01:12:42to run my dad
01:12:42over.
01:12:43Facing the
01:12:44speeding beast,
01:12:45Dad doesn't panic.
01:12:47He calmly
01:12:48pulls out
01:12:48his gun
01:12:49and shoots.
01:12:55Dad's
01:12:55perfect
01:12:56Braithy
01:12:57marksmanship
01:12:57flips
01:12:58the bad guy's
01:12:59car.
01:13:00McLean
01:13:01can't escape.
01:13:02Don't kill me!
01:13:03I'll give you
01:13:0310 million!
01:13:04Keep your money.
01:13:05You'll need it
01:13:06to buy your way
01:13:07into hell.
01:13:10McLean stands
01:13:11in the dock
01:13:12in a prison uniform
01:13:13totally stripped
01:13:15of his former
01:13:16arrogance.
01:13:18Dad not only
01:13:19catches McLean
01:13:20himself
01:13:21but also
01:13:22gathers all
01:13:23the evidence
01:13:23of his crimes.
01:13:25No elite
01:13:26lawyer can
01:13:26save him now.
01:13:28McLean
01:13:31do you have
01:13:32anything to say?
01:13:33No.
01:13:35I confess
01:13:36to my crimes.
01:13:37In the end,
01:13:39McLean
01:13:40is sentenced
01:13:40to life
01:13:41in prison
01:13:42and stripped
01:13:43of all
01:13:43his assets.
01:13:54As for
01:13:55Miss Ella
01:13:56and James,
01:13:57they get
01:13:58their due
01:13:58punishment too.
01:14:0030 years
01:14:00in prison.
01:14:01They deserve
01:14:02it.
01:14:03All the bad
01:14:04guys are locked
01:14:05up and I finally
01:14:06have my dad
01:14:07back.
01:14:08A much better
01:14:09life is waiting
01:14:10for us.
01:14:13Dad's hand
01:14:14is so warm
01:14:14and I feel
01:14:15so comfortable
01:14:16right now.
01:14:18He promises
01:14:19he'll never
01:14:20leave my side
01:14:20again.
01:14:21Tomorrow is
01:14:22Thanksgiving.
01:14:23Our family must
01:14:24have a proper
01:14:25celebration.

01:14:35of roast
01:14:35turkey
