1
00:00:03,658 --> 00:00:05,626
- Ta-da.
- That's it, sir.

2
00:00:05,794 --> 00:00:07,284
- That's what?
- Ah, ah.

3
00:00:07,462 --> 00:00:09,987
- That is a new record.
- What do you mean, a new record?

4
00:00:10,598 --> 00:00:14,466
See, the bailiff on day shift and I have
these little wagers on stuff our judges do.

5
00:00:14,636 --> 00:00:18,663
You know, like, uh, who has
the lowest percentage of repeat offenders...

6
00:00:18,840 --> 00:00:21,900
...uh, how many times they bang
their gavel during a session.

7
00:00:22,077 --> 00:00:24,739
You pit your judge against his?

8
00:00:25,180 --> 00:00:27,648
We used to race cockroaches.

9
00:00:28,083 --> 00:00:30,711
- Got your camera ready, Bull? Okay.
- Right here, sir.

10
00:00:30,885 --> 00:00:33,012
Shoot and collect.

11
00:00:36,658 --> 00:00:38,023
Hello.

12
00:00:38,693 --> 00:00:39,717
Sorry, Bull.

13
00:00:39,894 --> 00:00:43,022
I've got to learn to focus faster.

14
00:00:43,198 --> 00:00:44,256
Don't worry, big fella.

15
00:00:44,432 --> 00:00:47,629
We'll get them on the "illegal search
and seizure" competition.

16
00:00:47,802 --> 00:00:49,929
I'm sorry if we're interrupting
something here.

17
00:00:50,105 --> 00:00:51,732
Oh, that's fine. Can we help you?

18
00:00:51,906 --> 00:00:53,601
We'd be mighty obliged if you could.

19
00:00:53,775 --> 00:00:57,404
I'm Bob Elmore,
and this here is my missus, Mucette.

20
00:00:58,780 --> 00:01:00,645
Would you listen to him?

21
00:01:00,815 --> 00:01:03,978
Everybody who knows him
calls him Daddy Bob.

22
00:01:04,152 --> 00:01:06,916
He hasn't been called Bob
since he got out of high school.

23
00:01:07,088 --> 00:01:08,817
Well, now, never...

24
00:01:09,290 --> 00:01:13,283
Daddy Bob, Mucette,
you're from out of town, aren't you?

25
00:01:13,828 --> 00:01:15,693
How did you know that?

26
00:01:15,864 --> 00:01:19,265
Well, I didn't recognize the name
of the feed store on your shopping bag.

27
00:01:20,368 --> 00:01:22,359
Isn't he the smart one?

28
00:01:22,537 --> 00:01:24,232
Yes, isn't he?

29
00:01:24,406 --> 00:01:28,536
Well, we're looking for the office
of the "assistant district attorney."

30
00:01:28,710 --> 00:01:30,302
Oh, that's one floor down.

31
00:01:30,478 --> 00:01:32,810
That's where we'll find our Danny boy.

32
00:01:32,981 --> 00:01:34,778
Danny boy?

33
00:01:36,051 --> 00:01:38,019
- Danny boy Fielding?
Yeah.

34
00:01:38,953 --> 00:01:40,079
He's our son.

35
00:01:40,255 --> 00:01:42,416
Dan Fielding is your son?

36
00:01:42,590 --> 00:01:46,117
I'm afraid she has a hearing problem,
mother. We'll have to speak up.

37
00:01:46,294 --> 00:01:48,728
Excuse me, I thought you said
your name was Elmore.

38
00:01:48,897 --> 00:01:50,694
- Well, it is.
- But Dan?

39
00:01:50,865 --> 00:01:54,494
Oh, that's his real name too.
Fielding's his middle name.

40
00:01:54,669 --> 00:01:56,864
He started using that
when he went to college...

41
00:01:57,038 --> 00:01:59,472
...because he felt it sounded better
for a lawyer.

42
00:01:59,641 --> 00:02:02,974
Maybe he was right,
because now, he's a lawyer.

43
00:02:07,582 --> 00:02:09,550
I don't think they get it.

44
00:02:09,918 --> 00:02:11,545
Daddy Bob, Mucette, have a seat?

45
00:02:11,719 --> 00:02:14,586
- Why, thank you.
- Thank you.

46
00:02:15,657 --> 00:02:21,459
Now, I may be mistaken, but I understood
that you had, uh, passed on.

47
00:02:21,930 --> 00:02:23,124
I don't follow.

48
00:02:23,531 --> 00:02:26,762
Well, I thought
that you were no longer with us.

49
00:02:27,802 --> 00:02:29,394
I beg your pardon.

50
00:02:29,571 --> 00:02:32,131
Dan said you were dead.

51
00:02:32,307 --> 00:02:33,831
- Thanks, Bull.
- Dead?

52
00:02:35,677 --> 00:02:38,168
Oh, that little scamp.

53
00:02:38,546 --> 00:02:42,107
He was always trying
to pull somebody's leg.

54
00:02:43,651 --> 00:02:45,881
Your Honor, do me a favor
and take a look at this, l...

55
00:02:46,054 --> 00:02:48,852
You let Bull shuffle again,
didn't you, sir?

56
00:02:49,023 --> 00:02:50,752
Dan, there's somebody here
to see you.

57
00:02:50,925 --> 00:02:52,449
What?

58
00:02:59,067 --> 00:03:03,026
Thank God
they left the livestock in the car.

59
00:03:49,684 --> 00:03:51,982
We're sure proud of you, Danny boy.

60
00:03:52,153 --> 00:03:53,848
The whole town is proud of you.

61
00:03:54,022 --> 00:03:56,650
How are the dirty dozen?

62
00:03:57,091 --> 00:03:59,389
Well, the population is down
to eight now.

63
00:03:59,561 --> 00:04:01,392
Really?
- Doc Tanner left.

64
00:04:01,563 --> 00:04:02,587
What a shame.

65
00:04:02,764 --> 00:04:04,755
The rest went
when the gas station blew.

66
00:04:04,933 --> 00:04:06,525
Oh, it was awful.

67
00:04:06,701 --> 00:04:08,726
Took the church
and the bookmobile with it.

68
00:04:10,205 --> 00:04:12,173
News from home.
Thanks for catching me up.

69
00:04:12,340 --> 00:04:14,570
So how long you two kids
gonna be in town?

70
00:04:14,742 --> 00:04:17,768
Ahem.
- Well, no special amount of time.

71
00:04:17,946 --> 00:04:19,675
We just want to visit our boy...

72
00:04:19,847 --> 00:04:22,941
...and we wanna take in
some of the cultural attractions.

73
00:04:23,117 --> 00:04:26,609
That Ripley's Believe It or Not Museum.
I gotta see that.

74
00:04:26,788 --> 00:04:31,851
I understand the "People Who Took
Bullets and Lived" exhibit is inspiring.

75
00:04:32,026 --> 00:04:34,153
Dan, here's the docket...
- Thank you.

76
00:04:34,329 --> 00:04:37,321
Aw, now, please, Mr. Elmore,
that's not necessary.

77
00:04:37,498 --> 00:04:39,056
Well, where I come from...

78
00:04:39,234 --> 00:04:42,567
...a man always stands
when a pretty girl shows up.

79
00:04:42,737 --> 00:04:44,136
Well, thank you.

80
00:04:44,305 --> 00:04:46,330
And you are a pretty girl.

81
00:04:46,741 --> 00:04:50,177
It's a shame though
that your hair all fell out.

82
00:04:51,980 --> 00:04:53,880
All rise.

83
00:05:01,789 --> 00:05:02,949
You may be seated.

84
00:05:04,759 --> 00:05:08,024
- Cute couple, huh?
- Yes, sir, and generous.

85
00:05:08,196 --> 00:05:10,721
- They gave me this.
- What is it?

86
00:05:10,898 --> 00:05:13,890
Hog's headcheese.

87
00:05:15,036 --> 00:05:16,663
Did you open it?

88
00:05:16,838 --> 00:05:19,807
Not on your life, sir.

89
00:05:22,477 --> 00:05:26,573
I believe I'd eat aluminum siding first.

90
00:05:27,915 --> 00:05:28,939
Mac, I'm sorry.

91
00:05:29,117 --> 00:05:32,382
Where they come from,
most of the food is pagan deli.

92
00:05:32,553 --> 00:05:34,521
I've been trying to figure out
that accent.

93
00:05:34,689 --> 00:05:37,214
- Where are they from?
- Paris.

94
00:05:39,027 --> 00:05:41,552
That would have been my second guess.

95
00:05:41,729 --> 00:05:43,094
Paris, Louisiana.

96
00:05:43,264 --> 00:05:48,224
It's about a hundred miles
from nowhere in particular on Earth.

97
00:05:48,569 --> 00:05:52,665
- You're from Paris, Louisiana?
- My grandfather named the town.

98
00:05:52,840 --> 00:05:55,035
- In World War I, he was stationed in...
- France?

99
00:05:56,010 --> 00:05:58,137
Paris, Illinois.

100
00:05:58,613 --> 00:06:01,013
And I think that about says it all,
don't you?

101
00:06:01,182 --> 00:06:03,013
- Uh, we're ready, Your Honor.
- Thanks, Bull.

102
00:06:03,184 --> 00:06:04,481
Call the first case, Mac.

103
00:06:04,652 --> 00:06:07,348
<i>People v. Bambi.</i>

104
00:06:09,190 --> 00:06:10,885
This, I take it, is Bambi?

105
00:06:11,459 --> 00:06:16,522
She was foraging for more than berries
when they busted her.

106
00:06:16,698 --> 00:06:20,156
- Thanks, Selma.
- I've got more if things get slow.

107
00:06:20,335 --> 00:06:21,563
We'll let you know.

108
00:06:21,736 --> 00:06:22,862
Prosecution?

109
00:06:23,037 --> 00:06:26,905
She approached an undercover officer,
he arrested her, the people rest.

110
00:06:29,510 --> 00:06:35,005
While such outbursts are, uh, not something
you really do in a courtroom...

111
00:06:35,183 --> 00:06:39,244
...the court agrees that the prosecution
did a splendid job in presenting its case...

112
00:06:39,420 --> 00:06:43,880
...and should be commended for the brevity
and grace of its presentation.

113
00:06:44,058 --> 00:06:47,494
Do I get a gold star
to put on my attach�?

114
00:06:47,829 --> 00:06:49,353
The defendant pleads guilty.

115
00:06:49,530 --> 00:06:51,862
However, we request
that the sentence be reduced...

116
00:06:52,033 --> 00:06:54,126
...to time served and a limited fine.

117
00:06:54,302 --> 00:06:56,065
Time served it is, $50 fine.

118
00:06:56,504 --> 00:06:58,369
- Thank you, Your Honor.
- Selma?

119
00:06:58,539 --> 00:06:59,563
Come on, Bambi.

120
00:07:00,341 --> 00:07:05,210
Thumper is gonna be very cross
with you.

121
00:07:05,880 --> 00:07:07,438
- Your Honor.
- Mr. Prosecutor.

122
00:07:07,615 --> 00:07:10,675
Sir, I appreciate what you think
you may be doing for my benefit...

123
00:07:10,852 --> 00:07:14,049
...but it really isn't necessary
to try to make me look good up here.

124
00:07:15,923 --> 00:07:19,154
They don't even know what time zone
they're in.

125
00:07:19,327 --> 00:07:21,352
That's a bit harsh, isn't it, Dan?

126
00:07:21,529 --> 00:07:26,364
We're talking about people who debate
red or white wine with chicken feet.

127
00:07:26,534 --> 00:07:28,161
I got a great idea.

128
00:07:28,336 --> 00:07:30,531
I'm sure you don't, sir.

129
00:07:30,705 --> 00:07:32,536
Why don't we all go out
for the dinner break?

130
00:07:32,707 --> 00:07:34,971
- We all who?
- You and your folks and us.

131
00:07:35,143 --> 00:07:36,337
- No.
- Oh, it will be fun.

132
00:07:36,511 --> 00:07:38,741
- No.
- We'll take them to a classy place to eat.

133
00:07:38,913 --> 00:07:41,711
No, you can't make me do it.

134
00:07:44,719 --> 00:07:47,347
Okay, you can't make me like it.

135
00:07:52,460 --> 00:07:55,725
Excuse me, I'm Judge Stone.
I made reservations for eight.

136
00:07:55,897 --> 00:07:58,991
Yes, Judge Stone, of course.
This way, please.

137
00:08:02,870 --> 00:08:03,996
Excuse me, monsieur...

138
00:08:04,172 --> 00:08:07,073
...but I'm afraid a tie is required
for all gentlemen.

139
00:08:07,775 --> 00:08:09,333
I'm wearing a tie.

140
00:08:10,178 --> 00:08:13,614
That is a shoestring
with a rock attached to it.

141
00:08:15,149 --> 00:08:17,174
- Excuse me, Mr?
- Henri.

142
00:08:17,351 --> 00:08:21,720
Yeah, Henri, in many parts of the world,
that is considered a tie.

143
00:08:21,889 --> 00:08:23,948
- Lf Your Honor says so.
- Thanks.

144
00:08:24,859 --> 00:08:27,089
They're from Paris.

145
00:08:27,261 --> 00:08:30,822
Mama wrote me
that things were different now.

146
00:08:31,365 --> 00:08:33,162
This way, please.

147
00:08:33,334 --> 00:08:35,825
- Madam?
- Thank you.

148
00:08:36,204 --> 00:08:38,729
Daddy Bob, isn't it beautiful?

149
00:08:38,906 --> 00:08:42,433
It's also dark, more like a funeral home.

150
00:08:42,844 --> 00:08:46,780
Oh, honey, I saw that
in the Sears catalogue.

151
00:08:46,948 --> 00:08:50,679
Do you mind telling me
how much you paid for it?

152
00:08:50,852 --> 00:08:51,876
I'm really sorry.

153
00:08:52,053 --> 00:08:55,989
The doctor said
she'd be in and out for a while.

154
00:08:56,624 --> 00:08:59,115
Now, I don't want anyone to be shy.
This is my treat.

155
00:09:00,127 --> 00:09:01,890
Thank you, sir.

156
00:09:02,063 --> 00:09:04,361
Don't hurt me, Bull.

157
00:09:04,532 --> 00:09:07,899
I think I came here once
with my husband.

158
00:09:08,336 --> 00:09:10,600
You were married, Selma?

159
00:09:10,771 --> 00:09:12,796
Do chickens have lips?

160
00:09:12,974 --> 00:09:15,807
Yeah, but I don't see it on the menu.

161
00:09:17,478 --> 00:09:20,174
Would anyone like, uh, a cocktail
before dinner?

162
00:09:20,348 --> 00:09:22,475
I'm afraid most of us
are still working, Henri.

163
00:09:22,650 --> 00:09:25,380
In fact, we don't really have as much time
as we'd like.

164
00:09:25,553 --> 00:09:27,578
- Then perhaps you'd like to order?
- Perhaps.

165
00:09:27,755 --> 00:09:29,484
- I know what I want.
HENRl: Yes, sir?

166
00:09:29,657 --> 00:09:33,525
<i>I'll start with the foie gras,
followed by the potage a la tortue...</i>

167
00:09:33,694 --> 00:09:38,131
<i>... coq de bruy�re for my entr�e,
some baby carrots, not too soggy...</i>

168
00:09:38,299 --> 00:09:41,598
<i>...and for dessert the baba au rhum.</i>

169
00:09:41,869 --> 00:09:45,999
I'll have the same,
but I want my carrots mushy.

170
00:09:46,307 --> 00:09:49,868
Madam, I shall pound them personally.

171
00:09:50,044 --> 00:09:52,444
And for monsieur?

172
00:09:52,613 --> 00:09:55,104
Uh, Daddy Bob, I think he's asking you.

173
00:09:55,283 --> 00:09:57,945
I have no idea what I'm looking at.

174
00:09:58,119 --> 00:10:01,748
Well, perhaps, sir,
you will allow me to recommend something?

175
00:10:01,923 --> 00:10:04,118
Well, if you don't know a tie
when you see it...

176
00:10:04,292 --> 00:10:07,022
...I doubt if you'd know
what's good to eat.

177
00:10:07,595 --> 00:10:10,689
- Order the sweetbreads.
- Sounds kind of sissyish.

178
00:10:10,865 --> 00:10:13,925
That's what they call the lymph glands
of the calf, you'll love it.

179
00:10:14,101 --> 00:10:16,831
It's arguably
the most repulsive part of the animal.

180
00:10:17,004 --> 00:10:19,165
- I'll take that.
- Very good, monsieur.

181
00:10:19,540 --> 00:10:21,633
On wheat toast, please.

182
00:10:23,210 --> 00:10:25,508
Well, well, Fielding, how are you?

183
00:10:25,680 --> 00:10:27,443
Judge Tallon, how are you, sir?
Good evening.

184
00:10:27,615 --> 00:10:29,708
I'd like you to meet Marjori.

185
00:10:29,884 --> 00:10:32,444
My pleasure.
I think you know almost everyone here.

186
00:10:32,620 --> 00:10:35,748
- Judge Stone.
- Yes, of course, Stone.

187
00:10:35,923 --> 00:10:36,947
Bull Shannon.

188
00:10:37,124 --> 00:10:38,614
- Selma Hacker.
- Hi.

189
00:10:38,793 --> 00:10:40,124
- Mac Robinson.
How do you do?

190
00:10:40,294 --> 00:10:41,955
- Billie Young.
I believe we've met.

191
00:10:42,129 --> 00:10:43,391
And that's about it.

192
00:10:45,266 --> 00:10:48,133
Yes, the Elmores. Good to see you.
Hope we can do it again, goodbye.

193
00:10:48,302 --> 00:10:50,930
Ah. Bob Elmore,
I'm glad to know you, judge.

194
00:10:51,105 --> 00:10:53,164
- This is my wife, Mucette.
- How do you do?

195
00:10:53,341 --> 00:10:56,174
Mucette, what an interesting name.

196
00:10:56,344 --> 00:10:58,437
Oh, I bet you say that to all the girls.

197
00:10:58,613 --> 00:10:59,705
- Now, mother.
- Ha, ha.

198
00:10:59,880 --> 00:11:00,972
Yes, well...

199
00:11:01,148 --> 00:11:04,675
So you know my Danny boy here,
do you, judge?

200
00:11:04,852 --> 00:11:06,046
Danny boy?

201
00:11:06,220 --> 00:11:08,586
Oh, we are awfully proud
of our itty-bitty baby.

202
00:11:08,756 --> 00:11:09,780
Would you not?

203
00:11:11,492 --> 00:11:13,392
Fielding's your son.

204
00:11:13,561 --> 00:11:17,429
Yeah, and I suppose
this is your granddaughter.

205
00:11:18,933 --> 00:11:22,801
Hardly. Marjori is my dinner companion.

206
00:11:24,171 --> 00:11:28,107
That young thing?
Why, you old devil, you.

207
00:11:28,542 --> 00:11:29,941
Well, I never...

208
00:11:30,111 --> 00:11:32,272
And we believe you, Judge Tallon.

209
00:11:32,446 --> 00:11:35,006
Why don't you folks sit down
and join us for a cup of, uh...

210
00:11:35,182 --> 00:11:37,650
- Caf� au lait.
- Yeah, that's the stuff.

211
00:11:37,818 --> 00:11:40,514
We're leaving, thank you. Come, Marjori.

212
00:11:40,688 --> 00:11:42,383
See you in court, counselor.

213
00:11:42,923 --> 00:11:45,915
Yes, sir. It will be a pleasure
having you rule against me.

214
00:11:46,394 --> 00:11:48,385
Kind of a grumpy feller, ain't he?

215
00:11:48,562 --> 00:11:52,157
Well, I'm gonna insist that he come back
and have some fun with us.

216
00:11:52,333 --> 00:11:54,893
No, leave him alone.

217
00:11:55,069 --> 00:11:57,230
Well, I'll go by
his office in the morning...

218
00:11:57,405 --> 00:12:00,135
...and I'm gonna take him
a great big piece of...

219
00:12:00,307 --> 00:12:03,105
No, don't take anybody
a great big piece of whatever it is...

220
00:12:03,277 --> 00:12:07,179
...you two have slain
and dragged across the state line.

221
00:12:07,348 --> 00:12:10,681
Sounds like you've gotta burn
your bridges, Danny boy.

222
00:12:10,851 --> 00:12:12,751
Don't call me Danny boy.

223
00:12:12,920 --> 00:12:16,879
As a matter of fact, don't either of you
ever call me again, period.

224
00:12:24,231 --> 00:12:26,256
Pass me his roll.

225
00:12:37,778 --> 00:12:40,406
No sign of Dan in his office, sir.

226
00:12:40,581 --> 00:12:42,811
He's ten minutes late
for the session as it is.

227
00:12:42,983 --> 00:12:46,510
I asked around, but nobody's seen
the Elmores come back here.

228
00:12:46,687 --> 00:12:50,282
Can you blame them? I mean, the way
their own child walked out on them?

229
00:12:51,025 --> 00:12:53,619
The prodigal son returns.

230
00:13:05,673 --> 00:13:06,970
I'm sorry I'm late.

231
00:13:07,141 --> 00:13:08,904
I hope it was because a dog bit you...

232
00:13:09,076 --> 00:13:12,068
...and you had to go through
a series of painful rabies shots.

233
00:13:13,247 --> 00:13:14,942
Thank you.

234
00:13:22,423 --> 00:13:24,118
I know what you're thinking.

235
00:13:24,291 --> 00:13:27,192
I'm an ingrate son who ought not
to have treated his parents...

236
00:13:27,361 --> 00:13:28,828
...in such a dastardly fashion.

237
00:13:28,996 --> 00:13:31,430
- That's it, that's it.
- Took the words right out...

238
00:13:32,867 --> 00:13:36,234
Dan, I've gotta admit,
I'm disappointed in you myself.

239
00:13:36,403 --> 00:13:38,303
You didn't have to be raised
by them, sir.

240
00:13:38,472 --> 00:13:40,303
They seem like sweet, wonderful people.

241
00:13:40,474 --> 00:13:41,771
Good Lord, woman, are you blind?

242
00:13:41,942 --> 00:13:43,842
You probably came
from some normal family.

243
00:13:44,011 --> 00:13:45,979
<i>I was raised
by the folks from Deliverance.</i>

244
00:13:46,147 --> 00:13:47,739
We're talking...

245
00:13:48,149 --> 00:13:50,117
We are talking about your parents.

246
00:13:50,284 --> 00:13:53,583
We are talking about Ma and Pa Kettle.

247
00:13:54,255 --> 00:13:58,487
Dan, now, I know I can't force you
to talk about your personal relationships.

248
00:13:58,659 --> 00:14:00,718
But you'll make my life hell if I don't.

249
00:14:01,061 --> 00:14:04,053
Don't worry about it.
I'd threaten people too if I had the clout.

250
00:14:04,231 --> 00:14:06,222
I'll see you in my office, counselor.

251
00:14:06,400 --> 00:14:07,924
Yes, sir.

252
00:14:11,405 --> 00:14:14,897
I'd rather be raked over the coals alone,
if you don't mind.

253
00:14:49,610 --> 00:14:51,908
Want me to go cut you a switch?

254
00:14:52,079 --> 00:14:54,673
If it were in my jurisdiction.

255
00:14:54,849 --> 00:14:57,750
There's more here than just appears
on the surface, Harry.

256
00:14:57,918 --> 00:14:59,249
There usually is, Dan.

257
00:14:59,420 --> 00:15:03,117
Those people represent everything I have
fought to get away from my entire life.

258
00:15:03,290 --> 00:15:05,190
Dan, they can't be that bad.

259
00:15:05,726 --> 00:15:08,889
My God, Harry, they're Democrats.

260
00:15:11,665 --> 00:15:13,257
I stand corrected.

261
00:15:13,434 --> 00:15:14,867
My father is a dirt farmer.

262
00:15:15,035 --> 00:15:16,559
Dan, farming is noble...

263
00:15:16,737 --> 00:15:19,729
No crops, Harry. He farms dirt.

264
00:15:20,541 --> 00:15:22,338
Sure, maybe a few rocks now and then.

265
00:15:22,509 --> 00:15:24,636
And I suppose
he never tried to do any better?

266
00:15:25,679 --> 00:15:28,204
Yeah, sure, he tried,
but he always failed.

267
00:15:28,382 --> 00:15:32,375
Year after year after year,
but nothing ever grew.

268
00:15:32,553 --> 00:15:35,181
That's not persistence, that's stupid.

269
00:15:36,757 --> 00:15:39,419
Dan, it's true I don't know
very much about your father...

270
00:15:39,593 --> 00:15:41,390
...but from what little I do know...

271
00:15:41,562 --> 00:15:44,588
...stupid is not a word
that I would use to describe him.

272
00:15:44,765 --> 00:15:47,598
And I think you're a pompous ass
for saying so.

273
00:15:47,768 --> 00:15:50,100
That may be.

274
00:15:50,271 --> 00:15:52,432
Doesn't mean it isn't true.

275
00:15:52,606 --> 00:15:54,039
The boy's right, judge.

276
00:15:56,844 --> 00:15:59,108
Anybody who'd sit
on the same piece of land...

277
00:15:59,280 --> 00:16:01,612
...for 45 years and never see it produce...

278
00:16:01,782 --> 00:16:04,751
...can't be the smartest man
in the world now, could he?

279
00:16:06,820 --> 00:16:09,288
I never lost hope, did I, mother?

280
00:16:09,456 --> 00:16:12,050
No, you didn't, Daddy Bob.

281
00:16:12,226 --> 00:16:15,627
You had more hope
than anybody in the parish.

282
00:16:15,796 --> 00:16:18,060
Except maybe the fella
at the filling station...

283
00:16:18,232 --> 00:16:21,998
...who tried to check
his fuel tanks with a match.

284
00:16:23,304 --> 00:16:25,568
Mr. And Mrs. Elmore, I'm sorry.

285
00:16:25,739 --> 00:16:29,732
I didn't mean to stick my nose
into somebody else's business.

286
00:16:29,910 --> 00:16:32,401
That's a judge's job, isn't it?

287
00:16:33,280 --> 00:16:34,941
I suppose it is.

288
00:16:35,115 --> 00:16:38,642
Uh, you see, judge,
what the boy did here, it was right.

289
00:16:38,819 --> 00:16:43,256
He got out of that little two-bit town,
made something out of himself.

290
00:16:43,424 --> 00:16:45,949
And I encouraged him all the way,
didn't I, boy?

291
00:16:47,294 --> 00:16:53,392
We sold everything decent that we had,
give him some pocket money for college.

292
00:16:53,567 --> 00:16:58,561
But he did all the rest himself,
the scholarships and the odd jobs in school.

293
00:16:58,739 --> 00:17:01,833
It was the naked modeling
that upset me, though.

294
00:17:02,009 --> 00:17:05,445
- That was an art class, mother.
- I don't care.

295
00:17:05,612 --> 00:17:08,638
Nobody should've been looking
at my little Danny.

296
00:17:09,616 --> 00:17:11,914
Figure of speech.

297
00:17:12,086 --> 00:17:14,850
We gave the boy all we could,
Your Honor...

298
00:17:15,022 --> 00:17:19,891
...and in return,
we figure he owes us nothing.

299
00:17:21,128 --> 00:17:22,959
If you give to your kid just because...

300
00:17:23,130 --> 00:17:25,826
...you hope you're gonna
get some reward from him later...

301
00:17:26,000 --> 00:17:30,494
...well, I just don't know what giving
is supposed to be all about.

302
00:17:33,273 --> 00:17:35,707
You keep up the good work, boy.

303
00:17:35,876 --> 00:17:37,810
We're proud of you.

304
00:17:38,612 --> 00:17:40,375
Come on, mother.

305
00:17:43,784 --> 00:17:45,183
Goodbye, son.

306
00:17:46,820 --> 00:17:50,153
I liked you better in a crew cut.

307
00:18:05,205 --> 00:18:08,231
I know you'll do the honorable thing.

308
00:18:13,647 --> 00:18:17,947
Let me see a pair of them sunglasses there
with the Brooklyn Bridge on it, yeah.

309
00:18:19,686 --> 00:18:21,551
Huh? Ah...

310
00:18:21,755 --> 00:18:23,746
- How do I look? What do you think?
- Ha, ha.

311
00:18:23,924 --> 00:18:27,155
Aren't we Mr. Broadway? Ha, ha.

312
00:18:27,327 --> 00:18:29,591
- Let's see, that's it. That's it.
Wonderful.

313
00:18:29,763 --> 00:18:31,731
- Give them a deal.
What do you think?

314
00:18:31,899 --> 00:18:34,527
- Oh, they're definitely you.
- Oh, yes.

315
00:18:34,701 --> 00:18:36,635
I'll take them.

316
00:18:36,804 --> 00:18:41,241
We're watching, give them a deal.
That's something to take home.

317
00:18:43,210 --> 00:18:45,041
So, what's going on?

318
00:18:47,481 --> 00:18:50,507
Picking up a few souvenirs
to take back home with us.

319
00:18:50,884 --> 00:18:53,717
- You'll have plenty of time for that.
- Oh, I'm afraid not.

320
00:18:53,887 --> 00:18:55,514
We're leaving today, son.

321
00:18:55,689 --> 00:18:57,213
Nonsense, you just got here.

322
00:18:57,391 --> 00:19:00,952
You'll stay with me a couple of weeks.
I'll show you around.

323
00:19:01,428 --> 00:19:02,452
Well, but we've got...

324
00:19:02,629 --> 00:19:06,395
Don't worry, you'll be back in time
for the blight season.

325
00:19:07,434 --> 00:19:10,835
- Did you hit him?
- I think he hit himself.

326
00:19:11,238 --> 00:19:13,399
As long as somebody did.

327
00:19:13,774 --> 00:19:15,605
Do you mean this, son?

328
00:19:18,378 --> 00:19:20,005
Of course I do, Mama.

329
00:19:20,881 --> 00:19:24,681
That's the first time you've called me Mama
since we got here.

330
00:19:24,852 --> 00:19:30,552
Yeah, well, you see, I got this, uh...
This grapefruit-sized tumor in my brain.

331
00:19:31,825 --> 00:19:34,453
It's starting to shrink a little, though.

332
00:19:36,096 --> 00:19:39,088
- Can I have a hug?
- Oh, honey.

333
00:19:40,334 --> 00:19:42,825
This is quite a moving moment.

334
00:19:43,003 --> 00:19:47,303
Let me have a cigarette
and I'll well up with you.

335
00:19:49,877 --> 00:19:52,846
Everybody, why don't we go out
after work, get some real food.

336
00:19:53,013 --> 00:19:54,412
- Real food?
- Yeah.

337
00:19:54,581 --> 00:19:58,142
I know this 24-hour Creole place
over on Lexington. They got chicken feet.

338
00:19:58,318 --> 00:20:00,286
- No.
- Yeah, I go there quite a lot.

339
00:20:00,454 --> 00:20:01,682
Oh.

340
00:20:01,855 --> 00:20:05,882
Ahem. Yes, I eat chicken feet.

341
00:20:07,528 --> 00:20:09,723
And I like it.

342
00:20:10,664 --> 00:20:15,431
Hey, everybody,
I want you to meet my mother and father.

343
00:20:15,602 --> 00:20:18,867
- Mom, Dad, the lowlife of New York.
- How are you?

344
00:20:20,240 --> 00:20:22,333
Pleased to meet you.

345
00:20:23,377 --> 00:20:28,110
Listen, Daddy, I'm, uh, sorry. I...

346
00:20:31,118 --> 00:20:34,087
- Come on, guys, we got...
- Uh, lacrosse practice.

347
00:20:34,254 --> 00:20:35,812
- Yeah.
- Oh, yeah.

348
00:20:35,989 --> 00:20:37,479
Yeah, that's it.

349
00:20:40,294 --> 00:20:42,353
- Listen, I'm sorry, I, uh...
- I know.

350
00:20:42,529 --> 00:20:44,827
I know what you're trying to say, boy.

351
00:20:44,998 --> 00:20:49,094
- I'd like to say it anyway, though.
- You sure it will be good for your image?

352
00:20:50,837 --> 00:20:52,429
No.

353
00:20:55,108 --> 00:20:57,235
You always did know
the right thing to say to me.

354
00:20:57,411 --> 00:21:00,471
Well, sometimes,
I was less stupid than others.

355
00:21:00,647 --> 00:21:03,138
Do you know, I still remember
from when I was 2...

356
00:21:03,317 --> 00:21:07,583
...how you comforted me
when Scruffy, my pet turtle, died.

357
00:21:07,754 --> 00:21:11,815
Yeah, we always wanted
to tell you about that.

358
00:21:11,992 --> 00:21:15,655
- Tell me what?
- Scruffy didn't die.

359
00:21:15,829 --> 00:21:17,160
What?

360
00:21:17,331 --> 00:21:21,529
Son, your father and I always avoided
lying to you whenever we could...

361
00:21:21,702 --> 00:21:25,934
...but back then, when you were 2,
we were flat broke.

362
00:21:26,106 --> 00:21:29,974
You had your little heart dead set
on getting a pet turtle.

363
00:21:30,143 --> 00:21:32,441
But we couldn't afford it.

364
00:21:32,613 --> 00:21:34,205
But Scruffy...

365
00:21:35,148 --> 00:21:37,412
Was a potato.

366
00:21:39,353 --> 00:21:41,480
No.

367
00:21:41,655 --> 00:21:42,883
I'm afraid so.

368
00:21:43,056 --> 00:21:45,752
I remember Scruffy. It was a turtle.

369
00:21:45,926 --> 00:21:50,556
He was a potato.
I just painted a shell on him.

370
00:21:51,632 --> 00:21:54,567
Daddy, Daddy, I remember
playing with him.

371
00:21:54,735 --> 00:21:56,999
Well, yeah,
but it just laid there, didn't it?

372
00:21:57,170 --> 00:22:02,904
You never saw no legs, or neck
or nothing on it, did you?

373
00:22:03,977 --> 00:22:05,740
He was shy.

374
00:22:06,146 --> 00:22:07,670
It wasn't shy.

375
00:22:07,848 --> 00:22:09,839
It was a spud.

376
00:22:14,221 --> 00:22:16,416
I don't know what to say.

377
00:22:18,825 --> 00:22:21,851
Someone's dream has shattered.

378
00:22:24,498 --> 00:22:26,830
I loved that potato.

379
00:22:27,000 --> 00:22:29,468
Son, I'm sorry.

380
00:22:29,636 --> 00:22:34,198
I can't believe this. It was one
of the happiest memories of my childhood.

381
00:22:34,374 --> 00:22:37,104
That and my little toy drum...

382
00:22:41,148 --> 00:22:43,981
With the picture of the Quaker on it.
