Down in the Valley Page #4

or be?

Kind of a nice thought.

I sat here a lot of times.

I looked at this tree and

i wondered if that branch had a purpose.

Maybe it's here...

to provide shade.

Or maybe...

it'll get cut down to make somebody a nice piece of furniture someday.

Maybe it's supposed to have a swing on it.

Maybe it's just here

so the tree can balance itself.

I'd lean towards the swing .

It seems like hopeful to me.

And now i see sitting up there,

I know I'm right.

Can I watch?

yeah.

Where's your sister?

Dunno.

Are you still mad at her?

Look I love your sister, she just

she gets under my skin sometimes, okay.

What do you love about her?

i don't know, what do you love about her ?

I dunno

just the whole package huh

Yeah i guess.

she got grumption.

what's that.

It means...

she has spirit,

she won't take sh*t.

This drives me crazy but i know it's good for her.

America's tough on the meek.

But they'll inherit the earth.

- What?

- They'll inherit the earth.

where did you get that crap.

I heard it on TV.

The meek may inherit

fortune from relatives that dies,

but not the earth.

The only good thing about the meek

is they make...

life easier for those with grumption.

Can you learn grumption?

No, You either got it or you don't.

Hold it!

Hey Charlie,

you've kept him in great shape.

We've been running all day.

Get off him.

- What?

- Get off my horse.

Get off the horse, you speak english ?

Quit fooling around Charlie, You're scaring my girl.

You're on my property,

you're on my horse,

if I shot you

i would be well within the law.

- I ain't sure that's technically correct.

- Get off the horse.

It's okay sweetheart, we're having some kind of miscommunication, we'll work it out.

I don't know

what's wrong with your friend head there mam

but you'd better talk him down off that horse as fast as you can!

Harlan Get down.

All right.

Not getting off cause of you or your gun,

but 'cause my girl here wants me to,

and I'd do anything for her.

Unlike you Charlie, I got my priorities straight.

I don't give a rats ass

about your priorities.

And stop calling me Charlie.

You know what, you really dissapoint me,

after all our nice conversations we had, now you embarrass

me in front of my girl like this?

I should kick your ass just for that.

come on sweet pea let's get out of here.

- You're not going anywhere.

- Put the rifle down!

- Put the firearm down.

- They're the thieves.

Thank you, officer.

have you lost your mind, charlie?

- Pointing a gun at your friends?

- Easy.

they're the thieves.

What's going on her?

- He stole my horse.

- we didn't steal anything.

The horse is rigt there!
