But the changes I see every day

in my friend are evidence enough for me.

- MACK:
Hey.

- Willie said the bass are biting.

He'll give me 10 bucks

if I beat his five-pounder.

That's easy money.

- You bring a pole for me?

- Take your pick.

Got one for you, too,

if you're feelin' lucky.

Oh, you're on.

The Great Sadness is gone.

Mack experiences most days

with a profound sense of joy.

- He loves larger than most...

- (LAUGHTER)

he's quick to forgive,

and even quicker to ask forgiveness.

JOSH:
Dad.

He has become a child again.

All right! Whoo!

Or maybe the child

he was never allowed to be,

abiding in simple trust and wonder.

And it wouldn't surprise me if,

every now and then,

Mack takes off his shoes...

just to see if...

well, you know.
