I killed some folks
quite a while back.
They said I wasn't right in the head,
so they put me in the hospital
instead of putting me in jail.
- They let you out?
- Yeah.
- How come?
- They told me I was well.
Had to turn me loose.
- Well, are you well?
- I reckon I feel all right.
This here's my house.
You don't seem like you'd kill nobody.
We can just set these bags on the porch.
All right, then.
You like to play football?
I never did get picked out for it.
Me and the Barnett twins
and some boys play
at the junior high school field
all the time.
If you wanna play, you can come on over,
'cause we ain't no good either.
- Well, I'll see you later.
- All right, then.
Karl.
Hon, you can't just go in there.
Karl, what in the world
are you doing here?
I wanna come back and stay in here.
You can't do that.
You're a free man.
They let you out
so you can do as you please.
I reckon I don't care nothing
about being a free man.
I don't know how to go about it.
Well, you're gonna have to learn.
It'll take some time.
Don't you have anybody down there
to help you out?
No, sir.
Well, your daddy was living down there
the last time I heard.
I guess he wouldn't want
to help you out any, would he?
Sorry, I wasn't thinking.
Don't you have anybody?
No, sir.
Never did know too much
of nobody down there.
Not to be helping me out no way.
Look, Karl, the truth is, I don't know
where they expect you to go,
and I don't know
what they expect you to do.
If it was up to me, you could come
back here and stay if you wanted to.
I'm just trying to do my job.
You follow me?
Listen, Karl.
I know an old boy who's
got a fix-it shop deal in Millsberg.
He used to go to church with me.
You're good working
If I was to put my neck
out for you with him,
do you think you could work it
if he'll hire you?
I'm pretty handy, I reckon,
on lawn mowers and whatnot.
I know you are, I've seen it myself.
- Could you give it a try?
- I reckon.
Now, I can't promise you
that he'll hire you.
I'll have to tell him
about your history.
I never was no good with history.
No. I mean your past.
Why you were in here.
I'll take you down
first thing in the morning.
You don't have anywhere
you could stay tonight at all?
- No, sir.
- You can't stay here.
It's against the rules.
If something was to happen,
I'd be liable.
I reckon I can walk around
till morning time.
And sit and read a book somewheres.
Karl, would you like a muffin?
No, thank you.
I understand Jerry's gonna take you
someplace else tomorrow.
I don't reckon
