00:42:10,120 --> 00:42:13,606
My father sent you here
to bring me home.

I mean, I was coming here anyway...

No. Get out. Get out.

00:42:18,016 --> 00:42:20,150
Jo... think about what
you're throwing away.

00:42:20,175 --> 00:42:22,808
And for what? I mean,
for this small town that...

00:42:23,458 --> 00:42:24,791
clearly doesn't want you?

817
00:42:24,821 --> 00:42:28,156

818
00:42:28,658 --> 00:42:30,340
Get out!
