Missing in America Page #3

You don't know

your friends' names?

No.

Well, then how do you know

they're your friends?

Some things

you just know.

Come on.

Help me load this wood.

Well, where do they live?

Out here,

in the woods.

How'd you meet 'em?

Never met 'em.

Just heard they were

living out here,

so one day,

I decided to leave them

a surprise.

How come?

I just thought maybe

it'd be good

that they know

somebody cared about 'em,

and was thinking

about em.

Next thing I knew,

they were leaving

wood in return.

Well, how come

they live in the woods?

Some people just like

living by themselves.

Why?

Because they just do!

You stay in the truck

and stop talkin',

you're wearing

my ears out.

Can I get out here?

I suppose.

Cool, a cave!

Hey, not exactly.

Old mining tunnel.

Come on, we'll take

some of this wood

back to the truck.

Can I go inside it?

No!

Watch out.

Come on,

I'm freezing.

What's wrong, Jake?

Nothing.

Shoo, shoo!

Here, git! Git!

If you're not eating,

I'm not eating.

Does...

blue go with orange?

I'm not so good

with colors.

Sorry for yelling.

Okay.

Sorry for... for throwing things

at you.

And for going

through your stuff.

And for not having

any rain gear.

And for making

a mess of...

Stop.

Stop while you're ahead.

Okay.

What's the cat's name?

Cat.

Cat.

Just Cat?

Yup.

What's the dog's name?

Dog.

Oh.

What do you call

the chickens?

Chickens?

No.

Ladies.

Most of the time, anyway.

My daddy

gave me a doll.

Her name is Annie,

but I'm gonna call her Doll.

Sorry.

No, no, no,

you're doing good,

it's the eggshell,

you're doing good.

Maybe we should put

this in for a little longer,

let it cook

on the other side

a little bit.

Lay it down gentle like,

a dog will sometimes

turn on you and bite

when it's his chow.

Most dogs anyway.

Let's go, ladies.

Hey, this is how

you do it.

Will they bite too?

No,

but they won't eat

out of your hand.

They don't trust you.

They tickle.

Let's go,

we gotta feed the birds.

Ooh, what a big black bird.

It's a raven.

"Follow a raven

into the shadow,

and you will

find the light."

That's from an old Indian

medicine man.

What does it mean?

They say the raven

brings people courage.

He's a symbol of healing.

Do you believe that?

There's not much

I believe in anymore, Lenny.

Do you feed it too?

Oh, be damned

if I know.

I guess so,

but I've never seen it eat.

It just sits there

in that tree.

It's pretty.

That it is.

You got running away

out of your system?

Jake, look!

It's a beach!

That's where we headed.

Yes!

It's the best crab

I've ever had.

I can't even believe

we caught all this ourselves.

M m-mm-mm.

Is this

what your friends eat?
