(0.00 / 0 votes)The Indian knew that deer
moved in circles.
That if the hunter moved with skill...
...he could run the swift deer
into submission.
and the animal stumble.
The Indian was to kneel
above his dying prey...
...putting his mouth
to that of the deer...
...stealing its last breath.
While he had earned
the swiftness of the beast...
...in its death, he was struck
by its peace and stillness.
And by his own.
I'd done my job...
...defended my life.
I didn't believe me.
You killed my boy, Joe Roberts!
You killed my baby boy!
This is how houses catch fire.
Murderers' houses! Murderer!
- Murderer!
- Mrs. Baker, this won't help.
He killed my baby.
Robert, you and Jim want to get
Mr. Baker there? I'm sorry.
We hadn't seen each other
since I'd lost the farm in '65...
...and took the uniform job
to make ends meet.
In one of his letters,
he said his comrades...
...were disturbed
by the killing they'd seen.
He wrote:
"Guys over here...
...expect their hair
to stay dry in the rain."
Good.
Your mom called.
Yeah? What's happening?
First, the plane
was gonna be delayed in Hawaii...
...then it was on time.
Now she says 9:
30, Tuesday. For sure.It's gotta go through Fort Dix.
- Raffael asleep?
- Yes, babe.
No, no, no. This kid today...
- His parents came in making threats.
- What threats?
Threats.
When they pulled the father outside,
he started singing.
- Don't move!
- Hey, hey, it's me!
Shit! You scared the hell
out of me! Come here.
- He's got you trained.
- You're early.
- I didn't wanna hang around Fort Dix.
Joe will be so happy to see you!
Joe is so happy to see you.
Come on, baby. Come on.
Come on, a little bit. A little bit.
Share with your Uncle Frankie.
to the folks. I'll be back in a bit.
- You be here?
- Yeah, I've got two lessons later.
See you.
Welcome home, Frank.
Bye-bye.
Well, town looks same-same.
So you're a dad, man. How's that?
Undescribable.
Great.
He's amazing.
- What?
- Just looking at you.
It feels kind of strange
riding upfront in the Man's car.
No handcuffs, my own brother driving.
Shit.
Remember we used to plug
cop cars with snowballs?
Pull over. Pull over.
Hey, don't you do that!
Don't you do that!
He did it.
Hey, get the cop.
King of the mountain!
Need an army to fight me, huh?
What are you doing?
Listen, I just wanted
to see you guys...
...meet the baby and all.
I ain't gonna see Mom and Pop.
What are you talking about?
Frankie.
You caught me off balance.
What are you saying?
Goodbye?
Let's call it, "See you later."
- I came to see you, brother man.
- What about mom and dad?
- What about them?
You're the one
who always takes shit personal.
If anything, they'll be relieved.
You'll see.
Where you going?
You got a place to stay?
- You got money?
- I took 40 bucks from your wallet.
It's in the glove box.
I don't want you to go.
This whole town's talking about you.
- Good job, boy.
- Thanks.
the difference...
...between what gets you a kiss
on the ass and me locked up...
I used to know my brother
like I knew I'd always be a farmer.
But drifting off on the train
that day was a stranger.
He looked like a hero.
I felt closeness with that
rough-and-tumble kid...
...I knew before
high school distractions.
Then later my wife and farm
