And so they tried to decide which son
deserved the prize.

They tried, but they could not decide.

They argued all night.

Nyame found this, the god of all things.

He took the beautiful white light up
into the sky.

He keeps it there for all to see.

It is still there.

It will always be there.

It is there tonight.

One more?

No, honey, come on, it's late. Just the
little one, please.

Okay, go get it.

Hurry up.

Long time no see, bro.

Did?

Jimmy, you know those three guys who
broke out of Joliet?

Ripon police just picked up one of them
20 minutes ago. They think the other two

are headed our way.

Fugitive number one, Robert Quincy
Adams, male, white.

190 pounds, 6 feet 2, jailhouse tattoos
covering both arms and upper back.

Now, fugitive number two is Dale James
Betts, a .k .a. Sky Betts. Male, black,

225 pounds, 6 '2", no distinguishing
scars or tattoos.

Now, look, since these guys escaped,
they are suspects in two armed

The latest was in Green Lake, where they
hit a pawn shop and they got a trunk

load of guns and ammo.

Okay?

Rippon PD believes that they're making a
run for Canada. They were last seen

heading north on 49.

Suspect's vehicle, 88 Dodge.

Omni Blue, license number 824CJB.

All right. Look, these guys are
dangerous, so I don't want any John

there. If you see him, you call for
backup. Understood?

Yeah.

Yeah, it's real.

Can I touch it? No, you can't touch it.
Dale, put that thing up, please.

Cool.

You really my uncle?

Well, yeah, I'm your uncle.

Didn't your daddy ever tell you that he
had a big brother, huh?

But he's in prison.

Oh, he was in prison.

Sweetheart, go put your PJs on, okay?
Get ready for bed.

Go now.

She looks just like Mama, man.

How the hell did you get out, Dale?

I didn't kill nobody.

We had a little trouble on the road.

Had to split up.

Well, they caught one of them.

Black or white?

He was black.

That means Quince is still out there.

They ain't never gonna take him alive.

What about you, Dale?

It remains to be seen.

Look here, man.

I need your car.

I need some cash.

Four years, Dale. You were eligible for
parole in four years. What are you

doing? Hey, don't lecture me, man.

Are you gonna help me or not?

I never asked you for nothing, man.

Not when I was on the run. Not when I
was in a joint.

Now, I'm asking you now.

I don't have a lot of cash here, all
right? I got to go to the bank.

Hey.

You want to play in my room, Uncle Skye?

Well, heck yeah.

You got any good games in there?

I got Twister.

Get out of here. Twister? Do you know
what? I'm the Twister champ of the whole

world. Uh -uh.

Uh -huh. Come on.

Hey. Go ahead. We'll be all right.

Come on.

I get to go first.

At this hour, police are questioning the
man as to the whereabouts of the other

two fugitives still believed to be in
the area.

I hate to say it, folks, but you just
might want to lock your doors.

I'm taking a bath.

Sorry.

I'm hungry.

Well, talk to Dad.

It's his night to cook.

But he's not home yet.

There's salsa and chips in the pantry.

Mom, Dr. Joey's on the phone.

Matthew, I'll call her back.

Could I have five minutes to myself in
here, please?

Sorry, the situation came up. I'm sorry.
I know, I heard. But what about the

kids, honey? They're starving.

Oh, yeah, okay.

Maybe we should just order pizza.

Yeah, pizza! I'm going to do that egg
fondue thing. Oh, Jimmy, not eggs for

dinner, honey. Uh, Jimmy?

I thought you'd want to see this right
away.

Excuse me. Hi, Jill.

You want backup?

No, I'll take care of it.

Smells good in here.

Uh, just...

Just close the door on your way out,
would you please, ma 'am? Oh, yes.

I'm sorry, was that Pete?

Ow!

Wake up.

Dale, wake up, damn it.

Where are you? Come on, man, get in
there. Wake up, man. Okay, man, okay.

Look, man, I'm gone for 20 minutes.

Look, man.

Look, man.

I'm out there sneaking around.

I'm ducking corners for you. The cops
drive by, and I'm feeling like I'm the

criminal. I'm withdrawing my own money
from my own bank.

Now, I'm not going out there risking
myself to take care of you while you're

here drunk, Dale. Hey, hey, hey, lighten
up, man. I'm tired, man.

I haven't slept in 36 hours, man. I just
need to sleep, all right? No, Dale,

come on, please. Wake up, man. Oh, man,
I'm sleeping.

Dale, how long do you think it's going
to take for the cops to figure out that

we're brothers? They're going to be here
in a second. Now, wake up. Let me

sleep, man. Wake up, man!

Who was that?

Let go of me, Dale.

Oh, man.

Jimmy. May I?

Yeah.

You back from the beach, Bill?

Oh, no, I was giving Kara a bath.

She almost pulled me in the foot.

What's going on?

Well, you heard about those guys that
broke out of Joliet?

Yeah.

Homicide cop in Chicago remembered one
of them had a brother that lived up

Half -brother.

Same mother, different father. Why
didn't you tell me, John?

When, Jimmy? I mean, that doesn't just
pop up in conversation, you know?

We got a call from a big rig driver.
Said he dropped off a hitchhiker outside

town.

Matches your brother's description.

Oh, what does that mean? He was black?

John.

Look, this whole thing just got me kind
of edgy, Jimmy.

I'm sorry. Okay.

But I don't think he's going to show up
here. I mean, I haven't even talked to

the guy for years.

He's a convicted murderer. He's on the
run. He's desperate, and he's your

brother. He's also extremely bright.

He knows this is the first place anybody
would look for him.

Maybe.

I'm going to keep a couple guys on
outside, front and back, just in case.

Do you think that's really necessary,
Jimmy? Do you have to do that? You know

have to do that, John.

Yeah.

You know where I am, right?

Right.

murderer, John.

Self -defense, man.

No, I told him, people, I said, don't
move.

Nobody move.

And when he thought I wasn't looking,
man, that fool went for his gun.

I just shot first, man.

That bank guard never went for his gun.

Hey, man, you weren't there. You don't
know.

30 witnesses, Dale.

Yeah, they were all looking at me.

They didn't look at him, man, until
after my gun went off.

You weren't there. No, but you were
there.

Don't try to make it his fault for being
in front of your gun. You took that

man's life over money, Dale.

You killed an innocent man. I don't care
what cause you were fighting for.

That was you, Dale.

You pulled that trigger all by yourself,
man. That was you.

Come to bed, Jimmy.

Miss Dossier and Dale Betts.

National merit scholar in high school,
student council vice president, Ann

on a scholarship.

Well, not your usual criminal profile.

Dropped out of Michigan in his junior
year.

Was involved in some kind of student
radical organization.

Disappeared a couple of years.

Five members of a militant organization
held up a branch of Chicago Consolidated

Bank. A guard was killed. The trigger
man was later identified as Dale Betts.

All was 800 bucks.

Oh, God.

Killed a man for $800.

Betts went on the run for 12 years.
Picked up in Portland, Oregon, 1988.

Judge gave him...

30 to life.

Younger brother becomes a DA, older
brother... Convicted murderer.

How does that happen?

Hey. Found this on your bookshelf. Found
all these on your bookshelf.

Eldridge Cleaver, Mere Baraka, Nikki
Giovanni.

You read all these?

Yep.

Don't seem like your style.

Thinking of Dad, not me.

Didn't know there was a difference.

Whatever, man. I'm going to bed.

So, Junior.

What's the game plan?

I thought I would talk to Jimmy
tomorrow, maybe. See if I could get him

those cards out of there. Yeah, talk to
Jimmy, man. We don't want to upset

Jimmy.

You know, why don't you let off, man?

I'm not dad, you know.

You're more like dad than you care to
admit.

No, no, wait.

There is some difference here.

Dad was a banker. He made money off the
brothers.

You put him in jail.

It's about trying to do what's right.

Trying to make this place safe.

Why this place? I mean, why Rome,
Wisconsin?

You are lost, my brother.

Oh, well, since you're so together,
Dale, why don't you tell me why?

You ran.

No, I left. No, you ran. You had that
good job after law school. Why'd you

leave? I got transferred.

You begged for that transfer.

See, you don't even remember writing me
about that in one of your twice -a

-year, hi, Dale, how's it going letters.

You took them size nines, man, and you
put them in Dad's big shoes, and you ran

as far and as fast as you could.

Chicago didn't need me, Dale.

And I didn't need to keep being reminded
of my wife's death.

Look, I wanted to come someplace where I
could make a difference, man.

Someplace where Kara could grow up safe.
Grow up safe?

Grow up safe?

How safe is it for her to grow up
wanting to be like Julia Roberts,

a one and three?

How safe is it for her to be separated
from her own people, from her culture?

No, she's getting culture, Dale. That's
what I read to her every night.

That's why I tell her stories about the
neighborhood all the time. You tell her

stories about the old neighborhood?

Man, you are robbing her of her self
-esteem and her ability to live. to be a

beautiful black woman. She gets that in
the neighborhood.

You kidnapped her, man.

You're running from your own culture and
from your own people. And what did you

run from, Dale? Huh?

Let's run your sheet down. You ran away
from home. You ran away from school.

You ran away from society, from the law.

Wait a minute.

This isn't about you and me.

This is about you and Dad, isn't it?

Yeah, after all this time, he's still
got a hold on you, doesn't he?

You're crazy.

Oh, no, come on. Let's talk about it,
man.

Why did you hit Dad's bank then?

Why his bank?

I'll tell you why.

You wanted to get in one more swing at
Dad.

You couldn't hit him, so you hit his
bank instead.

But what did it get you, man?

$800? 30 years to life behind some cause
that's forgotten all about you?

And now you break out of prison and run
to my house so that what? You can bench

your last little bit of spleen before
the cops gun you down?

Please tell me you're not that stupid,
guy.

Shut up!

Shut up!

Daddy?

Daddy?

What are you doing?

Oh, we're doing nothing, baby. We're
just playing.

Wrestling.

We've been doing this all our life.

Definitely cool.

Hi,

guys. Get lost, Zach.

Saw you at the tire store, Matthew.

You say anything, I'll pound you.

I won't say anything.

Better not, dweeb.

Hey, where are you going?

None of your beeswax.

feet.

French fries, frog eyes in a pond of
blood. I wish I had wrapped my spoon,

got my straw.

Ew,

you learned that in school?

Well, not in school.

Denny Andrews taught me it at recess.

He's in fourth grade.

Look,

sweetheart, your Uncle Sky and I want to
talk alone for a minute, so...

You mind going in your room, working on
your diorama?

Do I have to?

Yes, you have to.

Okay.

Ten minutes.

Oh, yes, ma 'am.

She's sassy like Mama. Oh, yeah. She's
got a lot of her own mother in it, too.

Hey,

I wish I had known her.

You know, Dale, some of the things you
said... Hey, you remember that time that

Dad made us learn those poems, man?

When Graham and Gramps came?

Huh?

You had to do Hamlet's soliloquy?

To be or not to be? Oh, yeah. And you
were supposed to do Wordsworth or

something. No, Keith.

Keith, you remember?

Yeah.

But you did Langston Hughes instead.

Yeah. Remember?

I am the darker brother.

They send me to eat in the kitchen when
company comes.

But I laugh and eat well and grow
strong.

Tomorrow, when company comes, nobody
will dare say to me, eat in the kitchen

then.

Besides, they'll see how beautiful I am
and not be ashamed.

I, too, am America.

You remember that?

Oh.

Yeah, I remember that.

Man, if I had known that I was going to
get my butt whooped after that, I'd have

done Claude McKay or Barack or somebody.

Some with a little bit more teeth in it.

What are you talking about?

Oh, man, he didn't hesitate to jump all
over me.

Wait a minute, Scott.

Dad beat you for that?

Man, you want to know the real reason
why I dropped out of Ann Arbor?

Yeah, I was caught up in the cause and
all that.

But in my junior year, homecoming game,
y 'all came up, remember?

Yeah. I mean, I didn't get in the game
until the fourth quarter, caught a

of passes and that's it, you know?

But that night, that night, man, Dad got
on my case, man, and he just didn't let

up. I mean, he... What's the matter,
huh?

Huh, Dale?

Huh? You on the taxi squad now?

What are you, third string now, Dale?

Here I am, man.

I'm pushing a B -plus average, double
major.

I'm playing on national television.

And this old man is telling me that I
ain't nothing.

I got him out in the parking lot after
that, man.

And I told him straight up, I said, I
said, look here, man.

I don't want you coming to see me
anymore, okay?

I don't want to have anything to do with
you, okay?

Now, you know, I ain't never raised a
hand to this cat.

But this time, man, I fought back
because we were swinging.

We started swinging.

That old thumb bitch is strong, man.

I mean, he kicked.

You hear me?

He kicked my ass. He beat me like...
Like...

Like he had been wanting to do that all
his life.

On the way to the emergency room, Deuce
said, Deuce said, man, if you tell

anybody, I'm gonna kill you.

I'll kill you.

What did I do to him, man?

You were another man's son.

That's all, you know.

That was your crime, Dale.

This is how it's done, boys.

Watch.

Hey, geez, man.

Amateurs.

What was that?

Michael? What's he doing home?

Come on.

I'm on that business vehicle on Willow
and County.

Plate number 522.

Ranked Boy John.

Van's clear.

Let's check out the building.

Well, let's wait for backup, Kenny, like
Jimmy said.

What if no one's in there?

How are we going to look if we're
calling the National Guard? Let's make

Come on.

338, that place is coming up still.
Stand by for backup.

10 -4.

Officer down, officer down. Shots fired.
3 -38.

Hang

on,

Kenny. Just stay down.

Next time, we win.

Okay. Okay, just shut up, will you? Stay
still.

Let's go.

B. Dan.

What?

Says here that Eldridge Cleaver voted
for Reagan.

Yeah, so did I.

Hey, wait a minute. Something's up out
here. They're leaving.

It's my cue.

Hey, don't leave, Scott.

Listen, we say that you came here to
surrender, okay?

You realized that the breakout was a
mistake, and you came here to turn

in.

John.

Maybe we can get your case transferred
to local court.

Now, I know an excellent defense
attorney right here in Rome, and the

he's crazy, man. There's no telling what
he might do. I think you might be a

little bit more tired than I am, my
brother.

Dale, all right, so you have to do two
more years, okay? So you do six instead

of four, but when you get out...

At least you'll have your life, man.

You'll have your life. Man, I can't go
back.

I can't make it in the penitentiary.

Dale.

I don't want to lose you, man.

You're my brother.

I love you. Please, Dale.

Band -aid.

Keep it dry for a day or two. I'll give
you some acetaminophen for the pain. If

you need anything stronger, you call me.

That's it?

That's it.

You okay?

Yeah, not as bad as it looked.

He'll be sore for a few days, but he's a
tough guy. Right. You couldn't wait for

backup. We didn't move in.

We just made an approach, that was it.
Jimmy.

They found the van.

Where? In a ditch near Buxton Woods.
Looks like he lost control and hit a

That's Littleton's neighborhood.

Thought you'd be long gone by now, Bats.

Yeah, I was just leaving.

Here's your eyes.

What are you looking at?

You looking at my tattoos?

No, man. You don't know me well enough
to look at my tattoos.

Lay off, man.

You like that, huh?

You like looking.

Get off my brother, man.

Just messing with him, Bats.

Yeah, well, you leave it alone, man.

No hard feelings?

Uncle Skye.

Who are you?

Uh, he's, uh, he's just a friend, baby.

Does he have an owie?

Yeah, he has a big owie.

You want to play now?

Not right now, sweetheart.

I gotta go, okay?

Hey, hey, hey, listen to me. You go in
your room and you shut the door, okay?

Shut the door.

Cop.

Okay, Scott, now wait a minute. Daddy!

Don't take that baby in the back. Look,
look, they don't even know that you're

in here. Move it, John!

Listen, Scott, Jimmy is a friend of
mine, all right? Let me talk to him. I

rid of him once, I'll do it again.

I don't trust him, man. I'm not going to
do anything as long as you have my

daughter in here, man.

Come on, Scott.

All right. Daddy.

Baby, look.

We're going to play the game, okay?
We're going to play the game. Go play

Uncle Scott, baby.

Listen up.

One false move, one hiccup, she goes.

You go.

Everybody go.

Jimmy.

Twice in two days?

You're going to have the neighbors
talking about us. What's going on? I

get you and Kara out of here now.

Why? What happened?

Well, Max and Kenny had a shootout with
one of the guys that escaped with your

brother. Were they hurt?

No, they're okay, but the guy got away
and we found his vehicle very nearby.

my brother with her? No, he wasn't, but
let's get you and Kara out of here now.

Wait, Jimmy. Jimmy!

What? We got him.

Who? Betts and Adams. Max says we picked
him up a couple of minutes ago.

Wait, they got my brother?

We'll let you know.

Keep a couple guys on it.

What's going on? I don't know.

You did good, boy.

You did real good.

Try knocking next time.

Did you tell anyone I was at Mike
Larson's?

No. You sure?

Yeah, Joey Moretti told me what
happened.

What'd he say?

That if Mrs. Larson hadn't have gone
home, the whole house would have burned

down.

Did you start that fire, Matthew?

I don't know.

We were there.

Dad's gonna kill you.

Not if you don't tell.

I won't.

Promise?

Promise.

What the hell's going on? In there, Lyle
Knudsen spotted two... Neighborhood

watch, Jimmy. We were fully deployed
only seven minutes after Lyle spotted

suspect. I ought to go home. Quiet!

Who's singing?

Well, they say that they're gospel
singers on the way to Chippewa Falls.

They got separated from the group at
lunchtime and missed their bus.

These are hardened criminals.

Well, I just thought it would be a good
idea to keep them in protective custody

until you shut up.

There might be a mistake.

That'll do.

I

don't

like this, man.

There's still a couple of cops out
there.

Hey, you heard what the sheriff told
your brother? He told him to clear out.

Well, that's just what we're going to
do.

I can't find the car keys.

What?

I usually leave them on a hook in the
kitchen and they're not there.

Well, you got a second set, I know.

No, they're missing too. I don't believe
you, man.

Kara,

open the door, honey.

No!

Kara, baby, open the door.

What are you doing?

Hey, you want to die?

Fine with me.

Don't answer it.

Yes. John, John, it's Brock.

Can you talk?

No. Let's get the hell out of here,
okay? Both of them.

John?

Kenny, I want officers to ring the house
visible presence only. I'm on it.

Mac, coordinate with the SWAT team
leaders.

Advance only on my order.

Right.

They're moving in, man.

Where are you going?

Check out the back.

Come on, John. Pick up. Pick up.

Hey,

man, they got it covered, man.

Hey, be cool, man.

No, you be cool.

I'm not going back inside.

What's that?

I've got you and the little girl.

No, look.

If you want me, you got me, okay? But
you leave her out of this.

I don't think you're in any position to
bargain.

Look, if you want her, you're gonna have
to kill me first.

Okay?

Drop the gun, Jimmy.

I'll take the gun, Bex.

Daddy? He's going to be okay, baby. He's
going to be fine.

Go get me some towels.

Get me some towels, quick!

Whom am I speaking to?

Sheriff James Brock.

Well, hello, Mr.

Sheriff.

I'd say your D .A. friend's got about 20
minutes before he bleeds to death.

Let me talk to him.

I got the girl.

I want a car in five minutes and a clear
way out.

Next time the phone rings, you better
have it or she's dead.

He's welcome, Jimmy. If he kills Kara,
he gives up his only bargaining chip.

You might not be thinking that straight.
It's Looney Tunes.

Could have a man bleeding to death in
there. If we stall, we lose him. He

already be dead.

I had to mention it. Yeah, I know.

Hang in there, brother.

Come on, man. Hang in there.

Come here.

Don't let him take care of us. Please
don't let him take care of us.

Okay?

Yeah.

What's it going to be, Sheriff?

We have your car right here.

My men have pulled back. They have
strict orders not to follow you.

I will stand right out here, alone and
unarmed.

You got it, Betts.

Let's go.

Don't take her!

Don't take her!

Scott, please.

Please. Don't take her, Scott.

I'll see you around.

Let's go!

Let's see you.

Oh, God.

I got it.

We're gonna be late for supper, Scott.

You know how Daddy gets when we're late.

I promised Mama I'd find you.

I promised her I'd bring you home on
time.

I'm going, John.

I'm going home.

100 over 60. Dropping fast.

Yeah.

Open his IV. What's the rhythm?

Sinus bradycardia. Here, it's okay.

We got you.

Jimmy, what about Scott?

We're 12 out.

I'm sorry, man.

What are you two doing here?

Matthew has something that he needs to
talk to you about.

Okay.

First thing.

You go to Mike Larson's house and you
apologize to his mother and you offer to

pay for all the repairs and damages
caused by that fire.

And you pay for it out of your pocket,
not mine, mister.

Am I grounded?

No.

No, I am very disappointed. What you did
was careless

and irresponsible, but you're not the
only one to make a mistake here.

You're 15 years old.

And I haven't been paying attention.

I haven't been watching you grow up.

We've got to spend more time together,
you and me.

Okay.

Yeah.

Dad, I'm sorry.

It's okay, Big Bopper. Go back to sleep.

Kate.

Kate.

Matthew told me what happened.

He did?

He told you and nobody forced him?

Whoa.

See any trouble?

We talked about it.

I thought he was a dead man for sure.

Why didn't you tell me about it, Filler?

Well, I wanted to, but I sort of
promised him I wouldn't. And even though

been a total creep to me lately, he is
my brother.

Yes, he is.

Am I in trouble?

Nope.

Did I do the right thing, Dad?

Talk about it tomorrow, huh?
