Gospel Hill Page #2

---

- That's right.

Now my hands are tied,

but my soul is free as the ocean.

Amen to that.

- They gonna put me on the chain gang...

but they can't chain my spirit-

- That's right.

'cause I carry the light.

And that light is called "truth."

Y'all carry it too.

You too, Sheriff. Come on.

How you doin' over there?

You don't have a flashlight, do you?

As a matter of fact...

I do.

There you go.

That's really cute.

Oh, um, his sides.

You want to squeeze-

There it is.

- Boy Scout, huh?

Always prepared.

- Yes, I am.

Do you, uh-you mind

if I take a peek for you?

Please.

- Oh, it's okay.

What, uh-

What's it been doin'?

It sputters and then it stops.

- All right, we got a '72.

Yeah. I just bought it

when I got here.

All right. Let's give it a whirl.

Oh, that's awesome.

Thank you.

Absolutely.

I mean, this should-

this should get you home, but, uh, if-

I- I got it.

If, uh- I'd definitely

get it looked at... if I were you.

Take care of this guy.

Thanks.

- Absolutely.

I'm Joel.

I'm Rosie.

It's a pleasure.

Phase one is a championship

to be built in conjunction

with townhomes.

Excuse me.

Oh, sure.

- Then, in phase two...

single-family homes will

line the course itself...

followed by larger, custom homes.

And this is where

we'd like to build it.

Madam President?

- Yes. Mrs. Malcolm.

Do you intend

to bulldoze Gospel Hill?

Well, we're aware that

some of the land is occupied...

but we intend to offer

fair market value to everybody.

Tell me, what is fair market for the house

that your great-grandmother was born in?

Would you want to

sell that house?

Miriam, you cannot sell out Gospel Hill.

It is not yours to sell.

Sarah, uh, maybe we

should hear the man out.

I mean, uh, this could be good

for these people.

Where are they gonna go, Ron?

- Well, I know we're all

passionate about our heritage...

but we have to be realistic.

Oh, hell, Ron.

Give me a break.

You and I are blessed enough not even

to share the same reality as these poor folks.

Okay, uh, you can continue.

Many homeowners are selling

because of rising unemployment.

In fact, most of the properties involved

are rental properties owned by local residents.

What's the appraisal, Duncan?

I'm saying $40,000 is what I'm saying.

I'm saying $40,000.

I'm worried about this,

uh, Sarah Malcolm.

She's committed.

It could be a problem.

Well, it's personal to her.

She'll come around.

And it's not personal to you,

now is it, Doc?

No. You have to rise above that.

- Uh-huh.

I can handle Sarah.

The way you

handled her last night, I guess.

Look, when she's done talking, she'll realize

she can't win, and the vote will go down.
