1
00:01:23,956 --> 00:01:25,711
Good morning, everyone!

2
00:01:25,745 --> 00:01:27,335
- Good morning.
- Morning.

3
00:01:27,368 --> 00:01:31,642
I'd like to welcome you all hereon this glorious day.

4
00:01:31,675 --> 00:01:33,596
We've all come together
one and all

5
00:01:33,630 --> 00:01:36,645
to give praise to
our lord Jesus.

6
00:01:36,677 --> 00:01:38,799
Amen.

7
00:01:40,189 --> 00:01:42,708
Amen.

8
00:01:42,741 --> 00:01:45,226
Before I get started
with today's message,

9
00:01:45,258 --> 00:01:49,367
i'd, I'd like to tell you all
a little story.

10
00:01:49,400 --> 00:01:52,846
A few years ago I was traveling

11
00:01:52,878 --> 00:01:55,496
with a very close friend
of mine, a fellow pastor.

12
00:01:55,529 --> 00:01:58,312
We were driving to
a church conference

13
00:01:58,346 --> 00:02:01,592
and we had been in the car
for quite a few hours

14
00:02:01,625 --> 00:02:05,302
chatting about this and that,
old times,

15
00:02:05,336 --> 00:02:07,920
and in general,
passing the time

16
00:02:07,954 --> 00:02:13,950
as the road and telephone
Poles passed us by.

17
00:02:13,983 --> 00:02:18,224
But then the topic changed,
I mean, hey,

18
00:02:18,257 --> 00:02:23,690
you can't have two pastorsin a car for that length of time

19
00:02:23,724 --> 00:02:27,070
without the topic turning
to our lord.

20
00:02:29,886 --> 00:02:36,413
The conversation turned to
a discussion of reverence,

21
00:02:36,446 --> 00:02:41,714
specifically reverence
of our lord

22
00:02:41,746 --> 00:02:45,292
and reverence of his holy name.

23
00:02:45,325 --> 00:02:52,050
And out of that sprung a storymy friend the pastor told me...

24
00:02:52,084 --> 00:02:54,170
About a troubled young man,

25
00:02:54,204 --> 00:03:01,923
a boy really,
16 or 17 years old.

26
00:03:01,957 --> 00:03:05,800
A boy that had been moved from
foster home to foster home.

27
00:03:05,832 --> 00:03:09,378
He didn't have a sense of place.

28
00:03:09,411 --> 00:03:13,619
Different house, different
family, different faces.

29
00:03:13,651 --> 00:03:21,670
A boy who, through circumstance, had been left on his own,

30
00:03:21,702 --> 00:03:27,832
all alone, to fend for himself
in this world.

31
00:03:27,864 --> 00:03:31,211
He just needed a chance.

32
00:03:31,244 --> 00:03:36,710
He really just needed
a fresh start.

33
00:03:36,744 --> 00:03:42,773
He's a boy who merely needed
someone to care.

34
00:03:48,173 --> 00:03:52,116
These people, they're part
of my church.

35
00:03:52,149 --> 00:03:56,854
I feel responsible for them,
as I do you.

36
00:03:56,887 --> 00:04:01,095
I've read your file
and spoken with you

37
00:04:01,128 --> 00:04:07,489
and all I really know for sure
is how tough your life's been.

38
00:04:07,522 --> 00:04:11,928
But that's not who you are,
son, in here.

39
00:04:11,962 --> 00:04:13,685
You will decide that.

40
00:04:15,639 --> 00:04:18,952
So tell me, what do you want
out of life?

41
00:04:18,985 --> 00:04:20,543
What do you mean?

42
00:04:20,575 --> 00:04:22,795
What do you want out of life?

43
00:04:22,828 --> 00:04:25,479
Say whatever comes to mind.

44
00:04:27,036 --> 00:04:28,825
Okay.

45
00:04:28,859 --> 00:04:31,244
Money, enough so I don't have
to depend on anyone.

46
00:04:34,623 --> 00:04:37,108
Oh, I got ya on that one.

47
00:04:37,141 --> 00:04:38,764
Me too.

48
00:04:38,798 --> 00:04:40,852
But that's the easy one.

49
00:04:40,884 --> 00:04:42,674
Besides money.

50
00:04:44,629 --> 00:04:46,617
You'd better speak up.

51
00:04:46,649 --> 00:04:49,996
You ran out of options long ago.

52
00:04:50,029 --> 00:04:52,183
Listen, son.

53
00:04:52,215 --> 00:04:54,170
You see, I've got a whole group

54
00:04:54,203 --> 00:04:57,053
of these old prayer warrior
ladies.

55
00:04:57,085 --> 00:04:59,604
They're in the other room
knitting shawls.

56
00:04:59,637 --> 00:05:01,989
Well, I'm thinking that they'd
like nothing more

57
00:05:02,022 --> 00:05:03,181
than to be asked to come in here

58
00:05:03,215 --> 00:05:05,766
and pray over a troubled
young man.

59
00:05:05,799 --> 00:05:06,793
You wouldn't.

60
00:05:06,826 --> 00:05:08,582
It'd make their week.

61
00:05:09,411 --> 00:05:12,757
Maybe even their month.

62
00:05:12,789 --> 00:05:15,904
Okay, I'd like to be
accepted for me.

63
00:05:15,938 --> 00:05:17,859
Not the poor kid who doesn't
have a home.

64
00:05:17,892 --> 00:05:21,271
I'm tired of people feeling
pity for me.

65
00:05:27,135 --> 00:05:29,024
I got it.

66
00:05:29,057 --> 00:05:33,264
And I want to thank you
for your honesty.

67
00:05:33,298 --> 00:05:36,412
I mean, I can't help you with
either of those two areas

68
00:05:36,445 --> 00:05:39,460
other than to say that, well,

69
00:05:39,493 --> 00:05:42,475
'blessed is the man
who fears god,

70
00:05:42,508 --> 00:05:46,086
who takes great delight
in his commands.'

71
00:05:46,119 --> 00:05:48,604
that would be psalm 112.

72
00:05:48,637 --> 00:05:51,917
I think I'd rather listen
to the prayer shawl ladies.

73
00:06:00,465 --> 00:06:02,254
You taking him
to the Lewis' tonight?

74
00:06:02,287 --> 00:06:05,302
Yes, later this afternoon.

75
00:06:05,335 --> 00:06:08,449
They're a nice family, son.

76
00:06:08,483 --> 00:06:10,172
Go easy on them, okay?

77
00:06:10,205 --> 00:06:14,147
Ooh, I can't wait to meet them, I'm sure they're just lovely.

78
00:06:21,635 --> 00:06:23,292
Thank you for coming.

79
00:06:23,325 --> 00:06:25,743
If you'll excuse me, I need
to handle something.

80
00:06:25,777 --> 00:06:27,433
You're going to talk to them,
right, pastor?

81
00:06:27,466 --> 00:06:29,024
I was just going to grab them.

82
00:06:29,057 --> 00:06:31,409
Ladies, thank you for coming.

83
00:06:31,442 --> 00:06:33,165
Tom, Whitney.

84
00:06:33,198 --> 00:06:34,324
- Reverend.
- Hello.

85
00:06:34,358 --> 00:06:35,749
I just want to thank you both

86
00:06:35,782 --> 00:06:37,108
for taking this young man
into your home.

87
00:06:37,140 --> 00:06:39,593
- Of course.
- It's truly god's work.

88
00:06:39,625 --> 00:06:41,978
I was wondering if I might beable to speak to you in private,

89
00:06:42,010 --> 00:06:43,667
in my office perhaps,
if you have a minute.

90
00:06:43,701 --> 00:06:45,291
- Sure.
- Of course.

91
00:06:45,324 --> 00:06:46,384
Nate, we're going to speak
with reverend fields

92
00:06:46,417 --> 00:06:47,709
for a few minutes.

93
00:06:47,743 --> 00:06:50,724
- We'll be right back.
- I'm coming too.

94
00:06:50,757 --> 00:06:52,480
It's okay.

95
00:06:57,417 --> 00:06:59,338
Nate, why don't you scoot
over here with us?

96
00:06:59,371 --> 00:07:02,187
No. I'm okay right here.

97
00:07:02,221 --> 00:07:06,726
Uh, Tom, Whitney,
it was actually Nate

98
00:07:06,760 --> 00:07:09,973
that requested the meeting.

99
00:07:10,006 --> 00:07:12,591
He, uh... it's about
the foster child.

100
00:07:12,623 --> 00:07:17,493
He's not a child!
He's a 17 year old.

101
00:07:17,527 --> 00:07:23,292
Nate has some concerns
with the placement.

102
00:07:23,324 --> 00:07:27,566
Yes, and we've already spoken
to him about it.

103
00:07:27,599 --> 00:07:29,951
It's not that we're ignoring
his concerns,

104
00:07:29,984 --> 00:07:36,544
it's just that, um, we feel
called to do this.

105
00:07:36,577 --> 00:07:38,863
That, that's right.

106
00:07:38,896 --> 00:07:41,414
We have discussed this.

107
00:07:41,447 --> 00:07:43,104
Nate shouldn't have
brought you into it.

108
00:07:43,137 --> 00:07:45,356
I'm bringing him into thisbecause he brought this to you.

109
00:07:45,390 --> 00:07:46,881
And surely we can all see this

110
00:07:46,914 --> 00:07:48,703
as some sort of attempt
to replace Jack.

111
00:07:48,736 --> 00:07:50,658
Nate! Show some respect.

112
00:07:50,691 --> 00:07:52,281
- What? He was my brother!
- That's enough!

113
00:07:52,314 --> 00:07:53,606
The decision's been made.

114
00:07:53,640 --> 00:07:55,561
He's coming. That's final.

115
00:07:57,947 --> 00:07:59,768
Okay.

116
00:08:01,226 --> 00:08:03,678
Best we pray on this.

117
00:08:03,711 --> 00:08:06,295
How 'bout we read from...

118
00:08:07,091 --> 00:08:10,039
Nate.

119
00:08:16,102 --> 00:08:17,030
I'll talk to him.

120
00:08:17,063 --> 00:08:20,144
No, let me handle this.

121
00:08:29,685 --> 00:08:33,959
That's cute, but not helpful.

122
00:08:33,993 --> 00:08:36,278
Hey, we know that you're
unhappy about this

123
00:08:36,312 --> 00:08:39,625
but it is happening
and it won't be fair too him

124
00:08:39,658 --> 00:08:42,905
if we don't make him
feel welcome.

125
00:08:42,938 --> 00:08:44,859
Look, I'm sure he's going
to be feeling nervous

126
00:08:44,893 --> 00:08:49,200
and trying his hardest
to fit in.

127
00:08:49,233 --> 00:08:52,513
Hey, we love you
and we love Jack

128
00:08:52,546 --> 00:08:58,377
and nothing will ever
change that, okay?

129
00:08:58,410 --> 00:09:02,386
Now will you please make
an effort and be nice?

130
00:09:06,262 --> 00:09:08,680
Thanks, bud.

131
00:09:11,861 --> 00:09:14,776
Push your hair back...
And try to smile.

132
00:09:14,810 --> 00:09:16,433
Yes, can I help you?

133
00:09:16,467 --> 00:09:19,283
Uh... I'm looking
for Mr. and Mrs. Lewis?

134
00:09:19,315 --> 00:09:20,541
Oh, they live next door.

135
00:09:20,575 --> 00:09:21,634
What's he done?

136
00:09:21,668 --> 00:09:23,291
Oh, nothing, ma'am.

137
00:09:23,325 --> 00:09:25,279
He's just a foster placement
with the Lewis'.

138
00:09:25,312 --> 00:09:27,399
Is he part of a gang?

139
00:09:27,433 --> 00:09:28,989
No, ma'am.

140
00:09:29,023 --> 00:09:30,315
I left them and i'm
hoping to hide out here

141
00:09:30,348 --> 00:09:31,972
so they don't find me.

142
00:09:32,004 --> 00:09:34,722
He's got a good sense of humor.

143
00:09:34,754 --> 00:09:36,941
We're sorry for the mistake,
ma'am.

144
00:09:38,631 --> 00:09:40,718
That's a good way to start
looking for a new home.

145
00:09:40,751 --> 00:09:43,501
Please try to make
the most of this.

146
00:09:43,534 --> 00:09:45,257
Hey.

147
00:09:45,290 --> 00:09:47,244
Reverend fields worked reallyhard to get you this placement.

148
00:09:47,278 --> 00:09:48,504
They're good people.

149
00:09:48,536 --> 00:09:51,685
So I hear.

150
00:09:51,717 --> 00:09:55,196
You sure this is the right placethis time?

151
00:09:58,973 --> 00:10:00,795
Hi.

152
00:10:00,828 --> 00:10:04,406
Hello, miss Swanson,
and this must be Mason.

153
00:10:04,440 --> 00:10:06,725
Please, come in.

154
00:10:09,310 --> 00:10:11,894
- This is a beautiful home.
- Oh, thank you.

155
00:10:11,928 --> 00:10:13,352
Yeah, it's a great neighborhood.

156
00:10:13,385 --> 00:10:14,942
Nate, they're here!

157
00:10:16,301 --> 00:10:23,788
And there's lots of kids
your age and lots to do, so.

158
00:10:23,821 --> 00:10:25,875
Do I really have to be here
for this?

159
00:10:25,908 --> 00:10:27,499
Yes.

160
00:10:29,387 --> 00:10:31,176
This is our son, Nate.

161
00:10:31,210 --> 00:10:34,026
Hi, Nate!
This is Mason.

162
00:10:34,058 --> 00:10:36,146
And Mason, this is Nate
and Mr. and Mrs. Lewis.

163
00:10:36,179 --> 00:10:37,968
Nice to meet you, Mason.

164
00:10:38,001 --> 00:10:39,757
- You too, chief.
- Mason.

165
00:10:39,790 --> 00:10:41,414
It's Mr. and Mrs. Lewis.

166
00:10:41,446 --> 00:10:42,970
Yeah, that's what you said.

167
00:10:43,004 --> 00:10:44,992
He really is trying hard
to fit in here.

168
00:10:45,024 --> 00:10:46,913
Oh, of course, I am.

169
00:10:46,946 --> 00:10:47,940
It's been my dream
to come and live

170
00:10:47,973 --> 00:10:50,492
with your perfect little family.

171
00:10:50,524 --> 00:10:52,247
I'm so sorry.

172
00:10:52,281 --> 00:10:55,659
You know teenagers,
and it's a rough transition.

173
00:10:55,693 --> 00:10:57,681
I can speak with him
if you'd like.

174
00:10:57,713 --> 00:11:00,132
- Would you use a club?
- Nate!

175
00:11:02,451 --> 00:11:04,174
This is great...

176
00:11:04,208 --> 00:11:09,078
We just have to get to knoweach other a little, that's all.

177
00:11:37,139 --> 00:11:39,691
Come to see the newest
attraction?

178
00:11:39,723 --> 00:11:41,347
You're our first.

179
00:11:41,380 --> 00:11:44,792
If they're all like you, I can'tsee us getting any more.

180
00:11:44,826 --> 00:11:47,311
Well, zoo's closed.

181
00:11:47,343 --> 00:11:50,988
We're not allowed to have
our doors closed.

182
00:11:51,022 --> 00:11:52,412
Yeah, well, I'm older.
Different rules.

183
00:11:52,446 --> 00:11:54,003
Jack was older too.

184
00:11:54,036 --> 00:11:55,958
He followed the same rules.

185
00:11:55,991 --> 00:11:57,647
Who's Jack?

186
00:11:58,708 --> 00:12:01,723
My brother.

187
00:12:01,755 --> 00:12:03,677
This is his room.

188
00:12:03,710 --> 00:12:07,487
Where's he, besides
keeping away from you?

189
00:12:07,520 --> 00:12:12,954
He's in heaven now,
and we got along just fine.

190
00:12:12,987 --> 00:12:15,439
Yeah, well, I don't believe
in heaven.

191
00:12:20,044 --> 00:12:21,302
Well, where is he?

192
00:12:21,336 --> 00:12:22,595
Did you tell him dinner
was ready?

193
00:12:22,628 --> 00:12:24,086
I told him, but his door
is closed,

194
00:12:24,118 --> 00:12:26,339
so who knows what he's
doing in there.

195
00:12:26,372 --> 00:12:29,022
Nate, we have to let him fit in, feel comfortable.

196
00:12:29,055 --> 00:12:30,778
We have to earn his trust
and respect

197
00:12:30,811 --> 00:12:33,363
like he has to for us.

198
00:12:43,268 --> 00:12:45,819
Mason, dinnertime.

199
00:12:48,735 --> 00:12:51,353
Mason.

200
00:12:51,385 --> 00:12:55,560
Even if you're not hungry,
you gotta to let me know.

201
00:13:03,876 --> 00:13:07,653
Mason! Open this door right now!

202
00:13:07,686 --> 00:13:10,170
Nice call with the door.

203
00:13:13,716 --> 00:13:15,339
That's it.

204
00:13:15,372 --> 00:13:18,221
I know you can hear me
in there, Mason.

205
00:13:20,474 --> 00:13:23,953
Why did you have
this door... locked.

206
00:13:26,140 --> 00:13:28,459
- He's gone.
- What?

207
00:13:28,491 --> 00:13:29,851
Wait, what are we gonna do?

208
00:13:29,883 --> 00:13:31,474
I'm going to go try to find him.

209
00:13:31,506 --> 00:13:34,919
Shouldn't we call pastor fieldsor Swanson?

210
00:13:34,952 --> 00:13:37,967
No, no, let me, let me try
to find him first.

211
00:13:38,000 --> 00:13:39,922
I don't want to make this
into a bigger deal

212
00:13:39,955 --> 00:13:41,479
than it already is.

213
00:13:41,513 --> 00:13:44,759
Stay here in case
he comes back or calls.

214
00:13:55,162 --> 00:13:56,089
Thanks for stopping by.

215
00:13:56,123 --> 00:13:57,945
Thank you.

216
00:14:00,530 --> 00:14:03,080
Leave your bag on
the counter, please.

217
00:14:03,114 --> 00:14:04,770
What for?

218
00:14:04,803 --> 00:14:06,758
Store policy.

219
00:14:06,791 --> 00:14:09,640
Yeah, well, my policy is
to keep it with me.

220
00:14:09,673 --> 00:14:11,065
Okay.

221
00:14:11,098 --> 00:14:14,013
Thanks for stopping by then.

222
00:14:14,047 --> 00:14:16,300
You have no grounds to make me
leave this bag.

223
00:14:16,332 --> 00:14:18,121
This is discrimination.

224
00:14:18,155 --> 00:14:21,004
I have teenagers coming in hereand stealing me blind.

225
00:14:21,037 --> 00:14:23,787
If you're not one of them,
congratulations.

226
00:14:23,820 --> 00:14:26,205
But you still gotta
to leave the bag.

227
00:14:32,036 --> 00:14:35,714
I thought christians are
supposed to be trusting.

228
00:14:35,747 --> 00:14:39,889
'In god I trust,
all others pay cash, '

229
00:14:39,922 --> 00:14:43,401
and leave their bag up here.

230
00:14:48,801 --> 00:14:50,722
You got to be
kidding me.

231
00:14:50,756 --> 00:14:52,942
- I'm about to call the cops.
- For what?

232
00:14:52,975 --> 00:14:55,659
For not following store rules.

233
00:14:55,692 --> 00:14:57,283
Fine! Here.

234
00:14:59,435 --> 00:15:02,285
Hmm.

235
00:15:15,107 --> 00:15:18,651
Don't you want to check
my pockets?

236
00:15:20,639 --> 00:15:21,931
What is this for?

237
00:15:21,965 --> 00:15:24,085
School project.

238
00:15:24,119 --> 00:15:27,431
What, you want to tell me
what to buy too?

239
00:15:28,955 --> 00:15:31,573
Here's your change.
You want a bag?

240
00:15:31,605 --> 00:15:33,958
I got one.

241
00:16:02,053 --> 00:16:05,399
Good evening.
What's going on?

242
00:16:05,433 --> 00:16:06,923
A male teenager bought
spray paint from her,

243
00:16:06,956 --> 00:16:09,706
then vandalized the store.

244
00:16:10,733 --> 00:16:13,582
Um, what, uh, what did
he look like?

245
00:16:13,615 --> 00:16:17,691
Average build, maybe 17.

246
00:16:17,723 --> 00:16:22,958
Curly dark hair, dark backpack, dark clothes.

247
00:16:22,992 --> 00:16:26,139
This kid looked like he was
going nowhere real fast.

248
00:16:29,220 --> 00:16:31,738
Do you know something, sir?

249
00:16:39,789 --> 00:16:42,041
Hey, he just got back.

250
00:16:42,075 --> 00:16:44,129
I tried to talk to him
but he went in his room.

251
00:16:44,162 --> 00:16:45,289
I bet.

252
00:16:45,321 --> 00:16:47,442
Just go easy on him.

253
00:16:47,475 --> 00:16:49,363
We knew this was going
to be challenging.

254
00:16:49,397 --> 00:16:51,517
He vandalized
a convenience store!

255
00:16:51,551 --> 00:16:52,213
The police are there.

256
00:16:52,245 --> 00:16:53,803
What?

257
00:16:53,836 --> 00:16:55,394
Hey.

258
00:16:55,426 --> 00:16:56,818
What's going on?

259
00:16:56,851 --> 00:16:59,667
Where did you go?

260
00:16:59,700 --> 00:17:00,926
What do you mean?

261
00:17:00,959 --> 00:17:03,610
Mason, we're not stupid.

262
00:17:03,643 --> 00:17:05,498
Okay, okay, I just needed
some air, you know.

263
00:17:05,531 --> 00:17:08,480
I borrowed a bike and rode it
around, but I brought it back.

264
00:17:08,513 --> 00:17:13,615
You can't just leave,
especially through a window1

265
00:17:13,649 --> 00:17:16,199
we want this to work,
we want you here,

266
00:17:16,233 --> 00:17:17,823
but you have to do your part.

267
00:17:17,856 --> 00:17:19,512
We're responsible for you.

268
00:17:19,546 --> 00:17:22,726
Hey, no one's responsible
for me, but me.

269
00:17:22,759 --> 00:17:26,603
Oh. Sounds tough,
but that's not the case.

270
00:17:26,635 --> 00:17:28,159
While you're in this house,

271
00:17:28,193 --> 00:17:31,373
you'll respect us and the rulesof the house.

272
00:17:31,407 --> 00:17:33,461
Or what? You'll kick me out?

273
00:17:33,493 --> 00:17:35,084
Been there.

274
00:17:35,117 --> 00:17:37,403
Mason, can't you see
that we're trying to help?

275
00:17:37,436 --> 00:17:39,789
I mean, we've welcomed you
into our home.

276
00:17:39,821 --> 00:17:42,207
We feel called to have you
as part of this family.

277
00:17:42,240 --> 00:17:43,897
A calling, huh?

278
00:17:43,930 --> 00:17:45,752
Well, then it has to be right.

279
00:17:45,785 --> 00:17:47,905
"To visit orphans and widows
in their affliction,

280
00:17:47,939 --> 00:17:53,372
and to keep oneself unstained
from the world."

281
00:17:53,405 --> 00:17:55,890
That's from James.

282
00:17:57,944 --> 00:17:59,302
God doesn't care
and neither do you.

283
00:17:59,336 --> 00:18:01,390
You're doing this for you!

284
00:18:01,422 --> 00:18:03,013
Don't worry about it, dad.

285
00:18:03,046 --> 00:18:07,817
He doesn't believe in heaven.

286
00:18:07,850 --> 00:18:09,738
Yeah, forget this.

287
00:18:09,772 --> 00:18:11,694
I'll be in my room.

288
00:18:11,726 --> 00:18:13,218
Get back here young man.

289
00:18:13,250 --> 00:18:14,344
We still need to talk
about the graffiti!

290
00:18:14,377 --> 00:18:17,458
Tom, just, just give him
a minute.

291
00:18:20,241 --> 00:18:25,211
God, it's Nate, Jack's brother.

292
00:18:25,244 --> 00:18:27,630
Please let him know

293
00:18:27,662 --> 00:18:30,578
that I think about him
all the time.

294
00:18:30,611 --> 00:18:36,839
Lord, tell him that
I miss him so bad.

295
00:18:40,153 --> 00:18:46,150
God, why is it that good peoplelike Jack get taken away

296
00:18:46,182 --> 00:18:51,251
and then the bad ones
like Mason get to stay?

297
00:18:51,285 --> 00:18:54,995
Well, maybe because only good people get to go to heaven?

298
00:18:55,028 --> 00:18:57,812
Anyway, thank you, god.

299
00:18:57,844 --> 00:18:59,766
Amen.

300
00:19:13,217 --> 00:19:15,403
I tell you Agnes, there's
something horrible going on

301
00:19:15,437 --> 00:19:17,657
over at that home.

302
00:19:20,042 --> 00:19:22,759
Hello, miss Swanson,
please come in.

303
00:19:23,918 --> 00:19:26,800
He's in here.

304
00:19:35,216 --> 00:19:36,408
You got this?
I'm gonna go deal with Nate.

305
00:19:36,442 --> 00:19:39,026
Yeah, yeah.

306
00:19:39,059 --> 00:19:41,279
Hello, Mason.

307
00:19:41,312 --> 00:19:43,731
We need to have a little talk
about the vandalism done

308
00:19:43,764 --> 00:19:45,785
to the convenience store
on pleasant Avenue last night.

309
00:19:45,818 --> 00:19:47,839
Do you know anything
about that?

310
00:19:47,872 --> 00:19:49,363
No.

311
00:19:49,396 --> 00:19:53,107
I was, I was here
all last night, right?

312
00:19:53,140 --> 00:19:56,055
It was Mr. Lewis who called me
and reported you

313
00:19:56,089 --> 00:19:58,905
as matching the description
of the suspect.

314
00:19:58,938 --> 00:20:00,296
Nice.

315
00:20:00,329 --> 00:20:02,251
Guess you got a new calling?

316
00:20:02,283 --> 00:20:04,271
The store owner has ID'ed you
from a photograph.

317
00:20:04,305 --> 00:20:06,293
She's going to press charges.

318
00:20:06,325 --> 00:20:07,883
Your file is going
to be reviewed

319
00:20:07,916 --> 00:20:10,864
and a judge will decide
the next steps.

320
00:20:10,898 --> 00:20:12,852
Mr. Lewis, thank you
for all of your help.

321
00:20:12,886 --> 00:20:14,774
I'll just grab my bag.
I'll be ready in five.

322
00:20:14,807 --> 00:20:19,346
Ah, hold on.
Stay right there.

323
00:20:19,379 --> 00:20:21,102
Don't I have to go with her?

324
00:20:21,136 --> 00:20:23,288
You're not out of
here that easily, mister.

325
00:20:23,322 --> 00:20:25,575
Nothing has changed between us.

326
00:20:25,607 --> 00:20:27,264
You are still part
of this family.

327
00:20:27,298 --> 00:20:29,219
We're gonna solve this together.

328
00:20:29,252 --> 00:20:30,279
Let me know when
his court date is

329
00:20:30,312 --> 00:20:31,903
and we'll make sure he is there.

330
00:20:31,936 --> 00:20:35,149
Okay, and it should be
in about two weeks.

331
00:20:35,183 --> 00:20:37,634
Okay. Go ahead and finish
your breakfast.

332
00:20:37,668 --> 00:20:39,788
Miss Swanson,
I'll walk you out.

333
00:20:39,821 --> 00:20:43,465
Oh yeah, and by the way, your
court-ordered group meetings

334
00:20:43,499 --> 00:20:44,526
start after school tonight.

335
00:20:44,558 --> 00:20:46,447
You're all signed up.

336
00:20:54,631 --> 00:20:56,121
That's funny, Agnes.

337
00:20:56,154 --> 00:20:57,678
I thought for sure

338
00:20:57,712 --> 00:20:59,931
they'd be dragging that hoodlumoff in handcuffs.

339
00:21:06,425 --> 00:21:07,816
If this is gonna work at all

340
00:21:07,850 --> 00:21:09,572
we need to know where
you're coming from.

341
00:21:09,605 --> 00:21:13,482
For example, someone who
believes is gonna have

342
00:21:13,515 --> 00:21:15,205
an entirely different
point of view

343
00:21:15,237 --> 00:21:17,656
from someone who
does not believe.

344
00:21:17,690 --> 00:21:19,114
You with me?

345
00:21:21,135 --> 00:21:23,885
Hello Lacey, glad you
could join us.

346
00:21:26,337 --> 00:21:28,755
You were saying?

347
00:21:28,788 --> 00:21:30,345
Yeah, I don't believe.

348
00:21:30,379 --> 00:21:32,598
Big surprise.

349
00:21:32,631 --> 00:21:34,122
And you do?

350
00:21:34,156 --> 00:21:36,541
Yeah, but not in some
good guy in the sky.

351
00:21:36,574 --> 00:21:39,788
More like a puppet master
looking for laughs.

352
00:21:39,821 --> 00:21:42,140
What, did you
read that on some t-shirt?

353
00:21:42,173 --> 00:21:43,962
You have a smart mouth...

354
00:21:43,995 --> 00:21:47,176
Looks like the new guy'sgot a little bit of an attitude.

355
00:21:47,208 --> 00:21:48,998
Relax, relax, relax.

356
00:21:49,031 --> 00:21:51,946
We've all got problems
with other people.

357
00:21:51,980 --> 00:21:55,789
There's no one here to judge
who's right and who's wrong.

358
00:21:55,823 --> 00:21:58,043
We're just trying to figure outbetter ways

359
00:21:58,076 --> 00:21:59,997
to deal with those problems.

360
00:22:00,031 --> 00:22:02,482
Try to understand life
a little better.

361
00:22:02,515 --> 00:22:06,424
And hopefully, as we go,
get over our prejudices.

362
00:22:09,075 --> 00:22:12,057
Ruby, thank you for joining us.

363
00:22:16,098 --> 00:22:18,683
I see you're familiar

364
00:22:18,716 --> 00:22:21,466
with the newest member
of our group, huh?

365
00:22:25,541 --> 00:22:27,794
- Mom?
- Mmm hmm.

366
00:22:27,828 --> 00:22:29,451
I know what you're trying to do.

367
00:22:29,483 --> 00:22:31,637
My friend Steve to me
you're trying to cope

368
00:22:31,671 --> 00:22:35,480
with the loss of Jack by
replacing him with Mason.

369
00:22:35,514 --> 00:22:38,694
Steve, the 14 year old
on your baseball team?

370
00:22:38,727 --> 00:22:40,417
Yeah.

371
00:22:40,450 --> 00:22:44,194
Sounds like Steve needs to stopwatching daytime talk shows.

372
00:22:47,076 --> 00:22:52,510
Honey listen, losing Jack is
just part of this.

373
00:22:52,542 --> 00:22:56,287
We really think that we can
help Mason.

374
00:22:56,319 --> 00:22:59,699
But that doesn't change
how we feel about you.

375
00:22:59,732 --> 00:23:01,786
You're our son.

376
00:23:04,503 --> 00:23:05,927
Hey, what's going on?

377
00:23:05,961 --> 00:23:09,605
Hey. We're just, you know,
just doing dishes.

378
00:23:09,638 --> 00:23:12,719
Well, he's at the group.

379
00:23:12,752 --> 00:23:15,304
Hopefully Wallace can help.

380
00:23:15,336 --> 00:23:17,027
I hope he doesn't graffiti
the church.

381
00:23:17,059 --> 00:23:18,981
- Nate.
- What?

382
00:23:19,014 --> 00:23:20,936
Look at his room.

383
00:23:22,725 --> 00:23:24,017
He vandalized my store.

384
00:23:24,050 --> 00:23:25,806
And I'm here because of her.

385
00:23:25,839 --> 00:23:27,694
You're here because of you
and your actions.

386
00:23:27,728 --> 00:23:29,483
So why are you here?
Your actions?

387
00:23:29,517 --> 00:23:30,676
All right, that's enough.
Everybody, please settle down.

388
00:23:30,709 --> 00:23:32,532
Ruby, have a seat.

389
00:23:35,579 --> 00:23:37,534
- Couldn't you have warned me?
- I didn't know.

390
00:23:37,567 --> 00:23:40,251
The court mandated he attend.

391
00:23:40,284 --> 00:23:43,133
Did the juvie court send
little Mason for some therapy?

392
00:23:43,167 --> 00:23:45,055
How did you get here?
Your mom send you?

393
00:23:45,088 --> 00:23:47,241
Dee, sit down.

394
00:23:47,275 --> 00:23:49,097
The new guy's got a mouth
that needs closing.

395
00:23:49,130 --> 00:23:51,084
Not in my meeting!

396
00:23:51,118 --> 00:23:54,331
He has zero respect
for anything. Good luck.

397
00:23:54,365 --> 00:23:55,690
Blame your god.

398
00:23:55,723 --> 00:23:57,579
Hey! That's it, this ends here.

399
00:23:57,611 --> 00:23:59,731
Mason, Ruby, you wanna leave?

400
00:23:59,765 --> 00:24:01,322
I will take it up with you
afterwards

401
00:24:01,355 --> 00:24:03,674
and we'll make other
arrangements.

402
00:24:03,707 --> 00:24:06,325
I'm not leaving.

403
00:24:06,358 --> 00:24:08,412
Why should I leave?

404
00:24:21,267 --> 00:24:23,520
Is it worth all this, dad?

405
00:24:28,125 --> 00:24:30,477
Just because something's
difficult

406
00:24:30,510 --> 00:24:33,625
doesn't mean it isn't
worth doing.

407
00:24:37,202 --> 00:24:41,576
I miss him.

408
00:24:41,609 --> 00:24:46,579
I do too, son.

409
00:24:46,612 --> 00:24:50,621
So all comments are
directed only at me

410
00:24:50,653 --> 00:24:54,232
and only on the subject
at hand, okay?

411
00:24:54,265 --> 00:24:57,876
Okay, let's talk about rules.

412
00:24:57,910 --> 00:24:59,864
Why do we have them?

413
00:24:59,898 --> 00:25:01,984
To keep everyone in line.

414
00:25:02,018 --> 00:25:04,701
Yeah. To keep people
from acting like fools.

415
00:25:04,734 --> 00:25:07,385
Well, you're both right.

416
00:25:07,418 --> 00:25:10,631
Without some sort of rules,
there'd be total chaos.

417
00:25:10,665 --> 00:25:12,189
You couldn't play football.

418
00:25:12,222 --> 00:25:14,541
Couldn't play baseball
without rules.

419
00:25:14,574 --> 00:25:17,126
And we even hire people
to enforce those rules

420
00:25:17,158 --> 00:25:21,101
like judges, referees,
policemen.

421
00:25:21,134 --> 00:25:23,188
And then they make up
their own rules.

422
00:25:23,221 --> 00:25:25,209
Mason.

423
00:25:25,242 --> 00:25:27,065
Do you know what set
of basic rules

424
00:25:27,097 --> 00:25:31,504
many societies base their code
of conduct on?

425
00:25:31,537 --> 00:25:33,757
The prime directive?

426
00:25:33,790 --> 00:25:35,744
No.

427
00:25:35,778 --> 00:25:38,263
The ten commandments
from the Bible.

428
00:25:40,714 --> 00:25:43,133
We all know what the ten
commandments are here, right?

429
00:25:43,166 --> 00:25:44,856
God's laws.

430
00:25:44,889 --> 00:25:49,262
Yes, a set of biblical lawsrelating to ethics and worship.

431
00:25:49,295 --> 00:25:53,138
The word of god.

432
00:25:53,171 --> 00:25:57,511
Mason, if there's one collectivekey to these laws or rules,

433
00:25:57,545 --> 00:25:59,400
what would it would be?

434
00:25:59,433 --> 00:26:02,647
Obedience?

435
00:26:02,680 --> 00:26:06,656
Yeah, that's part of it.

436
00:26:06,688 --> 00:26:08,213
But it's more about why

437
00:26:08,246 --> 00:26:09,538
we should be obedient
to these rules.

438
00:26:09,571 --> 00:26:12,354
Love?

439
00:26:12,387 --> 00:26:14,110
Pretty close, Lacey.
Something like that.

440
00:26:14,143 --> 00:26:16,230
It's respect.

441
00:26:16,264 --> 00:26:19,776
Respect for god,
respect for your parents,

442
00:26:19,808 --> 00:26:23,188
respect for others
and their property.

443
00:26:23,221 --> 00:26:25,805
So that's why everything's
so messed up.

444
00:26:25,838 --> 00:26:28,455
Some guy living in a cave
looking after sheep

445
00:26:28,489 --> 00:26:31,901
two thousand years ago is goingto dictate how we live today.

446
00:26:31,935 --> 00:26:33,823
So Mason, you don't feel
that consideration

447
00:26:33,856 --> 00:26:35,016
for others is important?

448
00:26:35,049 --> 00:26:38,031
Why? Huh?

449
00:26:38,063 --> 00:26:41,840
So we can honor parents
who beat us?

450
00:26:41,874 --> 00:26:46,710
Son, if someone has hurt you,
I am sorry.

451
00:26:46,744 --> 00:26:49,195
That is not right.

452
00:26:49,229 --> 00:26:51,117
But just because something
seems outdated

453
00:26:51,151 --> 00:26:54,298
does not make it wrong.

454
00:26:54,331 --> 00:26:56,551
Like we can't even say
the word, "god".

455
00:26:56,583 --> 00:26:58,472
C'mon.

456
00:26:58,505 --> 00:27:01,090
Little kids sing 'sticks
and stones may break my bones'

457
00:27:01,122 --> 00:27:03,144
but the creator of the universecan't handle his name

458
00:27:03,176 --> 00:27:04,237
being tossed around?

459
00:27:04,270 --> 00:27:06,225
I told you.

460
00:27:06,257 --> 00:27:09,339
Mason, once again,
it's about respect.

461
00:27:09,372 --> 00:27:11,029
It's about reverence.

462
00:27:11,061 --> 00:27:13,315
And who gets this respect?

463
00:27:13,348 --> 00:27:14,838
- You?
- If I've earned it.

464
00:27:14,872 --> 00:27:17,224
- Her?
- If she's earned it.

465
00:27:17,257 --> 00:27:18,516
The man in the moon?

466
00:27:18,549 --> 00:27:20,338
If the man in the moon
has earned it.

467
00:27:20,372 --> 00:27:21,498
You think it should be you?

468
00:27:21,531 --> 00:27:23,022
Why not him?

469
00:27:23,055 --> 00:27:24,414
Because he doesn't deserve it.

470
00:27:24,446 --> 00:27:25,938
And you do?

471
00:27:25,970 --> 00:27:27,594
At least I'm not out
vandalizing stuff!

472
00:27:27,627 --> 00:27:28,853
You've never made a mistake?

473
00:27:28,886 --> 00:27:30,907
Okay, guys, that's enough.

474
00:27:30,940 --> 00:27:32,862
As we've proven to each other
tonight,

475
00:27:32,895 --> 00:27:36,937
respect for others is not
always easy.

476
00:27:36,970 --> 00:27:39,686
Nor do we always deserve it.

477
00:27:39,720 --> 00:27:42,669
But just think, right here,
right now,

478
00:27:42,701 --> 00:27:44,889
if we do respect each other,

479
00:27:44,921 --> 00:27:48,765
how different this conversationmight be?

480
00:27:48,798 --> 00:27:50,289
It would probably be quieter.

481
00:27:50,321 --> 00:27:53,005
Good girl.

482
00:27:55,093 --> 00:27:57,047
Not what I was expecting
from you.

483
00:27:57,081 --> 00:27:58,472
You got some guts.

484
00:27:58,505 --> 00:27:59,797
And you'd already made up
your mind?

485
00:27:59,830 --> 00:28:01,851
Pretty girl, nice clothes.

486
00:28:01,884 --> 00:28:03,706
Thought you might be in here
to hand out cookies.

487
00:28:05,827 --> 00:28:07,517
Keep it up, Macy.

488
00:28:07,549 --> 00:28:11,559
Next time I'll teach you
about respect.

489
00:28:11,591 --> 00:28:14,309
Hey, something going on?

490
00:28:14,341 --> 00:28:15,236
I've gotta go.

491
00:28:15,269 --> 00:28:16,197
See you next time?

492
00:28:16,230 --> 00:28:19,676
You bringing cookies?

493
00:28:19,709 --> 00:28:22,458
Making friends,
that's great.

494
00:28:22,492 --> 00:28:24,877
But you'd better
steer clear of that one.

495
00:28:24,910 --> 00:28:26,600
- Her dad is...
- Tom.

496
00:28:26,633 --> 00:28:29,085
May I, may I see you
for a minute?

497
00:28:29,118 --> 00:28:31,635
Just go wait by the car,
two minutes.

498
00:28:34,319 --> 00:28:38,427
Tom, it's greatwhat you guys are trying to do,

499
00:28:38,461 --> 00:28:39,388
but this is gonna be tough.

500
00:28:39,422 --> 00:28:41,177
This kid has attitude.

501
00:28:41,211 --> 00:28:44,126
Oh, just discovering that.

502
00:28:44,159 --> 00:28:46,114
I'm not sure he can stay
in the group.

503
00:28:46,147 --> 00:28:47,870
The court mandated it.

504
00:28:47,903 --> 00:28:50,388
The court mandated a group.

505
00:28:50,421 --> 00:28:52,144
It doesn't have to be this one.

506
00:28:52,177 --> 00:28:54,596
And Ruby, the convenience storeowner, is also in this group.

507
00:28:54,628 --> 00:28:56,252
- She comes by.
- Oh?

508
00:28:56,285 --> 00:28:57,909
Yeah, a few years ago
for assault.

509
00:28:57,942 --> 00:29:01,917
She did her time,
but she likes coming here

510
00:29:01,951 --> 00:29:06,125
and it's hard to ask her
not to stay, you know.

511
00:29:06,158 --> 00:29:09,405
But not for Mason?

512
00:29:09,438 --> 00:29:13,314
I'm just trying to do what's
best for the group, Tom.

513
00:29:13,348 --> 00:29:15,402
And it's probably tough on him
to see her here,

514
00:29:15,434 --> 00:29:17,522
you know what I mean?

515
00:29:17,555 --> 00:29:19,642
I'll, I'll have
a talk with him.

516
00:29:19,675 --> 00:29:21,398
- Thanks, Tom.
- Yeah.

517
00:29:23,486 --> 00:29:26,699
Guess he didn't say
I was his star pupil?

518
00:29:26,733 --> 00:29:31,138
He, uh, he doesn't want you
in the group.

519
00:29:31,172 --> 00:29:32,199
Tough. The court put me there.

520
00:29:32,232 --> 00:29:34,783
Yes, but he runs the group,

521
00:29:34,816 --> 00:29:36,042
and if he asks the court
to transfer you,

522
00:29:36,075 --> 00:29:40,547
that'll, that'll probably
happen.

523
00:29:40,581 --> 00:29:42,370
Typical.

524
00:29:43,066 --> 00:29:45,518
Why are you fighting everyone?

525
00:29:45,550 --> 00:29:47,042
Whitney and I are trying to help

526
00:29:47,074 --> 00:29:48,366
and you're treating us
like enemies.

527
00:29:48,400 --> 00:29:50,719
Everyone does stuff
for their reasons.

528
00:29:50,752 --> 00:29:54,197
So you're okay with being
transferred?

529
00:29:54,231 --> 00:29:56,285
No. I want to stay here.

530
00:29:56,318 --> 00:29:58,637
Really?

531
00:29:58,670 --> 00:30:00,923
Why?

532
00:30:00,956 --> 00:30:04,435
Like I said, everyone does
stuff for their reasons.

533
00:30:12,552 --> 00:30:14,308
Almost done, dad?

534
00:30:14,341 --> 00:30:17,787
Just about.

535
00:30:17,820 --> 00:30:20,172
I'm on the last day
of this week's schedule.

536
00:30:20,205 --> 00:30:22,193
Good, 'cause I'm hungry.

537
00:30:25,805 --> 00:30:26,997
How about pizza?

538
00:30:27,030 --> 00:30:30,244
Works for me.

539
00:30:43,165 --> 00:30:47,903
Loving father, I need your help.

540
00:30:47,935 --> 00:30:51,845
I don't know how I'm gonna
pay all this.

541
00:30:51,878 --> 00:30:54,628
I'm really struggling.

542
00:31:31,403 --> 00:31:33,291
Where's Mason?

543
00:31:33,325 --> 00:31:35,114
I tried.

544
00:31:35,147 --> 00:31:36,969
I don't want to push too hard,
he'll just do the opposite.

545
00:31:37,002 --> 00:31:39,023
Dad, I've got it.

546
00:31:39,056 --> 00:31:40,713
- Are you sure?
- Yeah, absolutely.

547
00:31:40,746 --> 00:31:42,535
Oh, thank you so much, honey.

548
00:31:42,568 --> 00:31:43,463
I've got to run.

549
00:31:43,496 --> 00:31:45,285
Okay.

550
00:31:47,472 --> 00:31:48,996
Your breakfast is on the table.

551
00:31:49,029 --> 00:31:50,222
You have ten minutes to eat
and get ready.

552
00:31:50,254 --> 00:31:53,402
I'm not gonna to be late
because of you.

553
00:31:53,435 --> 00:31:57,146
Come on, let's go!

554
00:31:59,498 --> 00:32:02,546
You made me breakfast?

555
00:32:06,886 --> 00:32:09,702
Dad, we need to go.

556
00:32:09,735 --> 00:32:12,419
Dad, where are you going?

557
00:32:12,452 --> 00:32:14,340
- Let me go get Mason.
- Dad...

558
00:32:14,374 --> 00:32:15,566
What's all the commotion about?

559
00:32:15,600 --> 00:32:18,448
Oh. Well, good morning.

560
00:32:18,482 --> 00:32:20,370
Let's go.

561
00:32:33,126 --> 00:32:34,385
Hey, lace.

562
00:32:34,418 --> 00:32:35,279
How was school?

563
00:32:35,313 --> 00:32:37,102
Fine.

564
00:32:42,071 --> 00:32:44,324
That didn't sound so good.

565
00:32:44,357 --> 00:32:46,345
Just some of the kids are
being mean.

566
00:32:46,378 --> 00:32:47,869
Well, what are they doing?

567
00:32:47,902 --> 00:32:50,022
Patti's ignoring me.

568
00:32:50,056 --> 00:32:53,733
Grace won't eat with me anymore.

569
00:32:53,766 --> 00:32:55,556
Did you do something?

570
00:32:55,588 --> 00:32:56,880
No!

571
00:32:56,914 --> 00:32:59,597
Why would you ask that?

572
00:32:59,630 --> 00:33:01,552
Why is it always my fault?

573
00:33:01,585 --> 00:33:03,308
Sweetheart, I'm just asking.

574
00:33:04,235 --> 00:33:06,091
Listen, I don't know.

575
00:33:06,124 --> 00:33:11,093
I can't help you if you don't
tell me what's going on.

576
00:33:11,127 --> 00:33:13,115
You're right, you don't know.

577
00:33:13,147 --> 00:33:15,831
I'll wait in the car.

578
00:33:19,708 --> 00:33:21,662
Lace?

579
00:33:25,505 --> 00:33:26,466
You don't think that'd be hard?

580
00:33:26,500 --> 00:33:28,487
New school, no friends?

581
00:33:28,520 --> 00:33:30,078
And you think mouthing off
to your teachers

582
00:33:30,110 --> 00:33:32,164
makes it any easier?

583
00:33:32,198 --> 00:33:34,120
I give what I get.

584
00:33:34,152 --> 00:33:36,041
But they're your teachers.

585
00:33:36,074 --> 00:33:38,095
Show some respect.

586
00:33:38,128 --> 00:33:40,713
Why should I?

587
00:33:49,360 --> 00:33:51,613
You might get what you give.

588
00:33:51,645 --> 00:33:54,031
Go along with things.

589
00:33:54,064 --> 00:33:57,907
Make it a little easier on them, they'll make it easier on you.

590
00:33:57,941 --> 00:33:59,995
So be a phony?

591
00:34:00,027 --> 00:34:01,054
No, no.

592
00:34:01,088 --> 00:34:04,103
Just show a little respect.

593
00:34:04,135 --> 00:34:05,858
Hey dude, just be smart.

594
00:34:05,892 --> 00:34:07,946
Play the system.

595
00:34:07,979 --> 00:34:11,623
Schemers and phonies,
great role models.

596
00:34:20,336 --> 00:34:22,988
Dinner's in two hours, guys.

597
00:34:31,304 --> 00:34:33,258
Stupid window.

598
00:34:50,121 --> 00:34:51,148
Go away.

599
00:34:51,182 --> 00:34:53,567
I have a favor to ask.

600
00:34:53,600 --> 00:34:55,522
Okay, fine.

601
00:34:57,245 --> 00:35:00,458
What do you want?

602
00:35:00,491 --> 00:35:02,413
Let me paint your room.

603
00:35:02,446 --> 00:35:04,235
You're joking, right?

604
00:35:04,268 --> 00:35:07,250
Does it look like I'm joking?

605
00:35:07,283 --> 00:35:08,542
Okay.

606
00:35:08,575 --> 00:35:10,165
Don't expect me to return
the favor though.

607
00:35:10,199 --> 00:35:13,214
Don't worry, it's not for you.

608
00:35:13,246 --> 00:35:15,797
This about Jack?

609
00:35:19,143 --> 00:35:21,795
Okay, go ahead.

610
00:35:24,180 --> 00:35:27,128
Have we made a mistake?

611
00:35:27,162 --> 00:35:32,231
I was never sure about it,
but we can't back out now.

612
00:35:32,263 --> 00:35:33,920
You said you felt called, right?

613
00:35:33,954 --> 00:35:36,074
Yeah. Felt it.

614
00:35:36,107 --> 00:35:38,856
Fields said the same thing.

615
00:35:38,890 --> 00:35:41,175
Well, then we have to
honor that.

616
00:35:41,209 --> 00:35:44,589
It's just been so hard
on Nate.

617
00:35:44,621 --> 00:35:47,305
I don't know if those two
will ever get along.

618
00:35:52,572 --> 00:35:55,290
You're really good at painting.

619
00:35:55,322 --> 00:35:59,430
Yeah, foster families need
a lot of manual labor.

620
00:35:59,464 --> 00:36:02,148
What's that like, living
with different families?

621
00:36:02,180 --> 00:36:05,129
Oh, well, some good,
some bad.

622
00:36:05,163 --> 00:36:07,515
I've have friends who've
had great families.

623
00:36:07,548 --> 00:36:09,800
But not you?

624
00:36:09,834 --> 00:36:11,325
I didn't say that.

625
00:36:11,358 --> 00:36:14,439
I'm just saying that sometimes
it's hard.

626
00:36:14,472 --> 00:36:17,951
I know how you feel.

627
00:36:17,984 --> 00:36:21,430
You know, it's not easy on me.

628
00:36:21,462 --> 00:36:22,920
Why's that?

629
00:36:22,954 --> 00:36:24,180
Because I have this new
foster brother

630
00:36:24,212 --> 00:36:26,930
who's just messing up
everything.

631
00:36:26,962 --> 00:36:28,685
Yeah, that sounds tough.

632
00:36:28,719 --> 00:36:30,043
Real jerk, huh?

633
00:36:30,077 --> 00:36:32,330
He has his moments.

634
00:36:32,363 --> 00:36:36,670
You know, no one's ever
called me brother before.

635
00:36:36,703 --> 00:36:40,579
Nate! Mason!
Time for dinner.

636
00:36:40,612 --> 00:36:43,528
Just put a plastic bag over itand I'll put it in the freezer.

637
00:36:43,561 --> 00:36:45,548
It'll thaw after dinner
and we can continue.

638
00:36:45,582 --> 00:36:47,305
Thanks.

639
00:36:51,048 --> 00:36:53,268
You couldn't have just
called her Mrs. Tucker?

640
00:36:53,301 --> 00:36:54,726
Mom and dad are going to freak.

641
00:36:54,759 --> 00:36:55,753
Her first name is Ann.

642
00:36:55,786 --> 00:36:57,112
Yeah, but she's a teacher.

643
00:36:57,144 --> 00:37:00,722
Teachers are called Mr.
and Mrs. and miss.

644
00:37:00,756 --> 00:37:02,710
They only do that to keep us
in our place.

645
00:37:02,744 --> 00:37:04,367
Yeah.

646
00:37:04,401 --> 00:37:06,355
You're really bad with names,
did you know that?

647
00:37:06,388 --> 00:37:08,972
It's what first defines us.

648
00:37:09,006 --> 00:37:12,352
People can use names to put
you down or categorize you.

649
00:37:12,384 --> 00:37:15,068
But the teachers want
respect also.

650
00:37:15,102 --> 00:37:18,183
Make them earn it.
Come on.

651
00:37:23,019 --> 00:37:24,742
So do you know Lacey at all?

652
00:37:24,776 --> 00:37:26,697
Lacey fields?
The preacher's kid?

653
00:37:26,730 --> 00:37:28,387
Preacher's kid, can't be.

654
00:37:28,420 --> 00:37:29,480
She's in that group with me.

655
00:37:29,514 --> 00:37:31,070
Yup, that's the one.

656
00:37:31,104 --> 00:37:32,396
Her dad's the pastor
at our church

657
00:37:32,429 --> 00:37:34,151
so I see her there all the time.

658
00:37:34,185 --> 00:37:35,808
She's pretty.

659
00:37:35,842 --> 00:37:37,962
So you do look at more
than just books.

660
00:37:37,995 --> 00:37:39,320
Oh, ha ha.

661
00:37:39,353 --> 00:37:41,109
Do you like her?

662
00:37:43,528 --> 00:37:44,952
I heard she got put
in that group

663
00:37:44,985 --> 00:37:46,477
for bullying people
on the Internet.

664
00:37:46,509 --> 00:37:47,636
Really?

665
00:37:47,669 --> 00:37:51,512
Ha! Got you, I win.

666
00:37:51,546 --> 00:37:53,467
That's not fair.

667
00:38:03,340 --> 00:38:05,692
Can I hope this is about Nate?

668
00:38:09,568 --> 00:38:11,821
Here are the issues:

669
00:38:11,855 --> 00:38:14,836
The group leader doesn't want
you there anymore.

670
00:38:14,869 --> 00:38:17,354
The principal says you're
out of chances.

671
00:38:17,387 --> 00:38:18,679
There won't be anymore.

672
00:38:18,713 --> 00:38:21,330
Next step is suspension
or expulsion.

673
00:38:21,363 --> 00:38:23,549
And then there's
the vandalism charges.

674
00:38:23,583 --> 00:38:26,399
All of these in just three days.

675
00:38:26,432 --> 00:38:28,122
Well, isn't there some sort
of a grace period?

676
00:38:28,154 --> 00:38:31,766
I mean, I think that we're
doing better now.

677
00:38:31,799 --> 00:38:32,860
Something's got to change.

678
00:38:32,892 --> 00:38:34,914
That group is a mandatory thing.

679
00:38:34,946 --> 00:38:37,928
If he doesn't attend it,
he gets sent to juvie.

680
00:38:37,961 --> 00:38:41,539
And if he's not in school,
he gets sent to juvie.

681
00:38:41,573 --> 00:38:44,223
And if those charges aren't
mitigated in some way,

682
00:38:44,257 --> 00:38:47,404
he goes to juvie.

683
00:38:47,437 --> 00:38:49,855
Anything to say, Mason?

684
00:38:53,267 --> 00:38:55,985
Looks like I'm heading to juvie.

685
00:38:56,017 --> 00:38:59,132
Really? That's what you want
to do, just give up, move on?

686
00:38:59,165 --> 00:39:02,313
You tell me.

687
00:39:02,346 --> 00:39:04,235
Could you excuse us,
Mason, for a minute?

688
00:39:04,267 --> 00:39:08,508
I need to speak to Mr.
and Mrs. Lewis alone.

689
00:39:15,167 --> 00:39:18,017
Can I borrow something?

690
00:39:18,049 --> 00:39:19,574
Yeah, sure, what do you need?

691
00:39:19,607 --> 00:39:21,529
Your window.

692
00:39:24,642 --> 00:39:28,618
I think it's best and safest
for everyone

693
00:39:28,652 --> 00:39:32,527
if Mason's just handed over
to juvenile detention.

694
00:39:32,561 --> 00:39:35,907
He's been headed that way
for a long time.

695
00:39:35,941 --> 00:39:40,181
We've... but we've only had him
a few days.

696
00:39:40,214 --> 00:39:42,301
This isn't your problem.

697
00:39:42,334 --> 00:39:44,289
The kid was messed up
when he got here.

698
00:39:44,322 --> 00:39:47,569
Don't let it become more
than you can handle.

699
00:39:47,603 --> 00:39:51,247
Just let us think about it.

700
00:39:51,280 --> 00:39:52,704
There's another group
session tonight.

701
00:39:52,738 --> 00:39:54,394
Maybe he should just go to that

702
00:39:54,427 --> 00:39:57,277
and we'll, we'll see
how it goes.

703
00:39:57,309 --> 00:39:59,297
Okay.

704
00:39:59,331 --> 00:40:01,882
I'll be around if anyone
needs me.

705
00:40:26,597 --> 00:40:28,452
Where are your chaperones?

706
00:40:28,486 --> 00:40:30,341
I'm going to be sent to juvie
unless you drop those charges.

707
00:40:30,374 --> 00:40:31,765
You shouldn't be here.

708
00:40:31,799 --> 00:40:32,958
We shouldn't be
talking like this.

709
00:40:32,991 --> 00:40:34,681
I don't deserve this.

710
00:40:34,714 --> 00:40:36,768
Oh, did somebody else paint
'blame god' on my store?

711
00:40:36,802 --> 00:40:39,054
You antagonized me.
I'm just trying to get by.

712
00:40:39,087 --> 00:40:41,506
You're not the only one
that has it rough.

713
00:40:41,539 --> 00:40:44,753
I'm sorry about that, but you
have to take responsibility

714
00:40:44,786 --> 00:40:45,714
for your own actions.

715
00:40:45,746 --> 00:40:48,331
Yeah, I get it.

716
00:40:48,364 --> 00:40:50,187
No one cares about anything
but their own stuff.

717
00:40:50,219 --> 00:40:51,876
Not christians, not god.

718
00:40:51,909 --> 00:40:53,334
Hey, show some respect.

719
00:40:53,366 --> 00:40:55,089
If you're so worried about
what he thinks,

720
00:40:55,123 --> 00:40:56,780
why aren't you helping me?

721
00:40:56,812 --> 00:40:59,927
Maybe I am by not letting you
get away with this.

722
00:40:59,960 --> 00:41:04,267
Or maybe if you actually saidyou were sorry for what you did,

723
00:41:04,300 --> 00:41:05,559
it would make a difference.

724
00:41:05,592 --> 00:41:07,381
Not likely.

725
00:41:11,390 --> 00:41:14,405
Mason, open up!

726
00:41:14,438 --> 00:41:16,790
Mace, come on.
We need to talk.

727
00:41:16,824 --> 00:41:19,739
Mason!

728
00:41:19,772 --> 00:41:21,561
I'd leave him alone.
He was pretty mad.

729
00:41:21,594 --> 00:41:22,920
That's why we need to talk.

730
00:41:22,952 --> 00:41:25,106
Dad, mom, he just needs a break.

731
00:41:25,139 --> 00:41:27,028
Honey, he's not happy here.

732
00:41:27,060 --> 00:41:28,783
You know, we shouldn't
force him to stay.

733
00:41:28,817 --> 00:41:31,501
Well, if Jack was in trouble,
would you send him away?

734
00:41:31,533 --> 00:41:33,587
This is different, Nate.

735
00:41:33,621 --> 00:41:35,443
If you say so.

736
00:41:43,261 --> 00:41:46,276
Maybe we should just see
what happens tonight.

737
00:41:46,310 --> 00:41:48,165
You think he should go
back to the group?

738
00:41:48,198 --> 00:41:49,590
Well, yeah.

739
00:41:49,623 --> 00:41:51,644
I mean, he is supposed
to be there.

740
00:41:51,677 --> 00:41:53,035
You know, why should
he have to leave

741
00:41:53,068 --> 00:41:54,526
just because of other people
in the group?

742
00:41:54,560 --> 00:41:56,150
You know, why not them?

743
00:41:56,183 --> 00:41:58,270
You weren't so sure
about him before.

744
00:41:58,303 --> 00:42:01,384
Yeah, I know, but he's
got a point.

745
00:42:01,418 --> 00:42:03,405
Yeah.

746
00:42:03,438 --> 00:42:05,194
Mason's not Jack.

747
00:42:05,227 --> 00:42:09,303
No, but he is supposed to be
part of this family.

748
00:42:09,335 --> 00:42:13,178
This is something we took on
and I just...

749
00:42:13,212 --> 00:42:16,856
I just feel like we need
to see it through.

750
00:42:16,889 --> 00:42:18,646
I love you.

751
00:42:18,678 --> 00:42:20,401
I love you too.

752
00:42:22,852 --> 00:42:25,040
Well, we should probably
get dinner going.

753
00:42:25,073 --> 00:42:26,398
Oh yeah, okay,
I'll go get it ready.

754
00:42:26,431 --> 00:42:28,518
Okay, I'll see if I can
get him out of his room.

755
00:42:31,832 --> 00:42:34,018
Mason!

756
00:42:34,051 --> 00:42:36,237
Shhhh! Shhh, shhh!

757
00:42:36,271 --> 00:42:38,855
My dad's knocking on your door!

758
00:42:38,888 --> 00:42:40,413
Mace?

759
00:42:40,445 --> 00:42:41,506
C'mon, open the door.

760
00:42:41,538 --> 00:42:42,301
We need to talk about this.

761
00:42:42,334 --> 00:42:44,553
It's "Mason".

762
00:42:44,587 --> 00:42:47,767
Hold, hold on.

763
00:42:47,800 --> 00:42:49,258
Mace, open up!
We need to talk.

764
00:42:49,291 --> 00:42:50,981
Let me do it.

765
00:42:51,014 --> 00:42:52,837
He needs to follow the rules
of the house.

766
00:42:52,869 --> 00:42:55,487
Well, maybe if we give him
a little respect, he would.

767
00:42:55,519 --> 00:42:59,926
Like, he likes 'Mason'
not 'mace," dad.

768
00:42:59,960 --> 00:43:02,179
All right.

769
00:43:13,080 --> 00:43:17,055
Oh, Mason,
time for dinner.

770
00:43:19,771 --> 00:43:21,063
Thank you.

771
00:43:21,097 --> 00:43:21,992
That's what
little brothers are for.

772
00:43:22,024 --> 00:43:23,283
Thanks, Nate.

773
00:43:23,316 --> 00:43:26,033
I'll wash my hands
and be right out.

774
00:43:49,159 --> 00:43:51,179
Lacey, sweetheart.

775
00:43:51,213 --> 00:43:52,140
What're you doing?

776
00:43:52,173 --> 00:43:53,797
Just texting with Lori.

777
00:43:53,830 --> 00:43:55,553
My homework's basically done.

778
00:43:55,586 --> 00:43:57,938
I'm not worried about
your homework.

779
00:43:57,971 --> 00:43:59,529
I am worried about you.

780
00:43:59,561 --> 00:44:02,146
I'm fine.

781
00:44:02,179 --> 00:44:04,564
You're not supposed to be
texting, twitting, facing,

782
00:44:04,598 --> 00:44:06,486
any of that stuff.

783
00:44:06,519 --> 00:44:08,110
It's not like that, dad.

784
00:44:08,142 --> 00:44:09,169
Okay.

785
00:44:09,203 --> 00:44:10,064
So what are you talking about?

786
00:44:10,097 --> 00:44:11,654
Just girl stuff.

787
00:44:11,688 --> 00:44:15,995
Friends, school, boys...
Homework.

788
00:44:16,027 --> 00:44:19,639
But that's exactly what got youinto trouble last time.

789
00:44:19,672 --> 00:44:21,958
It wasn't my fault!

790
00:44:21,991 --> 00:44:23,714
Why can't you trust me?

791
00:44:23,747 --> 00:44:28,882
There's trust and then
there's being blind.

792
00:44:28,916 --> 00:44:30,473
Did you saying anything
about anyone else?

793
00:44:30,505 --> 00:44:32,858
Dad! Everyone does it!

794
00:44:32,891 --> 00:44:36,204
Would anyone be upset
with what you've said?

795
00:44:36,237 --> 00:44:37,695
This isn't fair!

796
00:44:37,728 --> 00:44:38,722
They're saying all
this stuff about me

797
00:44:38,755 --> 00:44:41,074
and I can't post back?

798
00:44:41,108 --> 00:44:45,878
You should see what
they're calling me!

799
00:44:45,912 --> 00:44:53,863
Listen, if you just ignore it
they'll lose interest.

800
00:44:53,896 --> 00:44:57,375
I'm not five years old!

801
00:44:57,407 --> 00:45:00,688
I hate them and I hate that
I'm the only one in trouble

802
00:45:00,721 --> 00:45:03,736
and I have that I have to go
to that stupid group!

803
00:45:03,769 --> 00:45:04,929
We can change groups?

804
00:45:04,961 --> 00:45:06,353
That's not the point!

805
00:45:06,387 --> 00:45:08,672
I shouldn't even be
in a group!

806
00:45:11,456 --> 00:45:15,564
Look, you just need to
get through this, okay?

807
00:45:15,596 --> 00:45:17,022
You do your best.

808
00:45:17,054 --> 00:45:19,473
You learn everything
you can from it.

809
00:45:19,506 --> 00:45:23,946
I know that you're
a good girl, really.

810
00:45:23,978 --> 00:45:28,219
And I know that you don't
belong in group.

811
00:45:28,253 --> 00:45:30,804
Hey, lace, I love you.

812
00:45:33,653 --> 00:45:35,806
I always will.

813
00:45:39,451 --> 00:45:42,929
We're here to support you.

814
00:45:42,963 --> 00:45:47,866
I'll back you to stay here,
but you have to try too.

815
00:45:50,583 --> 00:45:53,929
What about what Swanson said?

816
00:45:53,962 --> 00:45:58,998
She said that we have to
find a way to make it work.

817
00:45:59,031 --> 00:46:01,549
Let's find a way.

818
00:46:11,123 --> 00:46:15,232
All the legal parking is on
the east side of the...

819
00:46:15,265 --> 00:46:17,750
Excuse me just a minute.

820
00:46:20,003 --> 00:46:22,753
Ah, come here a minute.

821
00:46:29,412 --> 00:46:31,366
What're you doing?

822
00:46:31,400 --> 00:46:33,553
Dropping Mason off.

823
00:46:33,586 --> 00:46:35,408
He's disruptive.
He was told not to come.

824
00:46:35,442 --> 00:46:39,020
No, no, it was suggested
that he not come.

825
00:46:39,053 --> 00:46:41,869
There's a court order that saysthat he has to attend a group.

826
00:46:41,902 --> 00:46:43,658
All right, man, we can
always find another group.

827
00:46:43,692 --> 00:46:46,342
And if this is a support group
for 'people on the edge.'

828
00:46:46,375 --> 00:46:48,528
and doesn't being disruptivekind of come with the territory?

829
00:46:50,516 --> 00:46:53,531
Man, okay.

830
00:46:53,564 --> 00:46:55,883
I'm gonna have
to call Swanson.

831
00:46:58,268 --> 00:46:59,494
Awkward.

832
00:46:59,528 --> 00:47:01,416
Your old man fight
all your battles?

833
00:47:01,449 --> 00:47:02,974
Why don't you find out?

834
00:47:03,006 --> 00:47:04,895
Why don't you teach
this guy a lesson?

835
00:47:04,928 --> 00:47:06,154
Stop!

836
00:47:06,187 --> 00:47:07,082
Or both of you
will get kicked out.

837
00:47:07,114 --> 00:47:08,141
Nobody wants you here.

838
00:47:08,175 --> 00:47:09,368
Even she wants you gone.

839
00:47:09,401 --> 00:47:10,759
Hey, leave me out of it!

840
00:47:10,792 --> 00:47:11,952
Bet there wouldn't be
many here who'd vote

841
00:47:11,984 --> 00:47:13,542
to keep you around either.

842
00:47:13,575 --> 00:47:15,265
And you're probably not even
in this group.

843
00:47:15,298 --> 00:47:17,121
Your mom just uses it as
an excuse to send you away.

844
00:47:17,153 --> 00:47:18,578
Wow, now he's talking
about your mom.

845
00:47:18,611 --> 00:47:19,903
Leave my mom out of it.

846
00:47:19,937 --> 00:47:21,925
Ahh. Sore spot.

847
00:47:21,957 --> 00:47:23,780
She have other groups for you
on other nights?

848
00:47:23,812 --> 00:47:25,006
Slow learner's club?

849
00:47:25,038 --> 00:47:26,065
Mouth breathers night?

850
00:47:26,099 --> 00:47:27,092
Time you learned some respect.

851
00:47:27,126 --> 00:47:27,921
Stop!

852
00:47:27,954 --> 00:47:28,815
Stop it!

853
00:47:28,849 --> 00:47:29,511
Okay, knock it off.

854
00:47:29,545 --> 00:47:30,141
No, no!

855
00:47:30,173 --> 00:47:30,969
Hey, hey, hey!

856
00:47:31,002 --> 00:47:31,631
Enough, enough!

857
00:47:31,665 --> 00:47:33,156
Mason!

858
00:47:34,712 --> 00:47:36,634
Heya, bud.

859
00:47:36,668 --> 00:47:38,489
I just wanted to say 'thanks'.

860
00:47:38,523 --> 00:47:40,444
What for?

861
00:47:40,477 --> 00:47:43,492
For making an effort with
Mason and for working hard

862
00:47:43,526 --> 00:47:45,480
through all of this.

863
00:47:45,513 --> 00:47:47,236
And for painting the room!

864
00:47:47,269 --> 00:47:48,396
He helped too.

865
00:47:48,428 --> 00:47:50,648
A lot actually.

866
00:47:50,682 --> 00:47:52,869
Has to be a good sign, right?

867
00:47:57,639 --> 00:47:58,931
Lacey, what happened?

868
00:47:58,964 --> 00:48:00,323
Well, Dee was mouthing off
to Mason.

869
00:48:00,356 --> 00:48:01,648
Oh c'mon!
He was asking for it.

870
00:48:01,681 --> 00:48:03,205
Let her speak!

871
00:48:03,239 --> 00:48:04,398
- What're you afraid of?
- Not you that's for sure!

872
00:48:04,431 --> 00:48:05,458
Hey, hey, guys!
Knock it off!

873
00:48:05,491 --> 00:48:06,485
Okay, Mason!

874
00:48:06,518 --> 00:48:08,208
Not another word, you guys!

875
00:48:08,241 --> 00:48:09,235
Frightened of something
Dee-Dee!

876
00:48:09,268 --> 00:48:10,129
Keep it up smart mouth!

877
00:48:10,163 --> 00:48:11,487
Hey!

878
00:48:11,521 --> 00:48:14,999
Could you guys please sit down?

879
00:48:15,033 --> 00:48:16,822
Sit down.

880
00:48:20,930 --> 00:48:23,117
All your groups like this?

881
00:48:23,149 --> 00:48:25,800
He's got to go.
It's not working.

882
00:48:25,833 --> 00:48:27,291
Hold, hold on, hold on.

883
00:48:27,325 --> 00:48:28,450
It doesn't sound like it was
his fault.

884
00:48:28,484 --> 00:48:30,074
It doesn't really matter.

885
00:48:30,107 --> 00:48:31,333
Mr. Lewis, you can make
the decisions at home,

886
00:48:31,366 --> 00:48:32,592
here Mr. Wallace runs the group.

887
00:48:32,625 --> 00:48:34,646
Well, what's he supposed to do?

888
00:48:34,679 --> 00:48:36,800
We'll find him another group.

889
00:48:36,833 --> 00:48:39,384
And another group,
or school or family.

890
00:48:39,417 --> 00:48:41,835
They'll decide I'm not worth it.

891
00:48:41,869 --> 00:48:42,962
I'm the easy target
so blame it on me.

892
00:48:42,995 --> 00:48:44,751
Why not?

893
00:48:44,784 --> 00:48:47,136
Unfortunately with the
charges against you

894
00:48:47,169 --> 00:48:48,627
there's not much we can do.

895
00:48:48,661 --> 00:48:52,735
C'mon.

896
00:48:59,527 --> 00:49:03,304
Hold on.

897
00:49:03,337 --> 00:49:06,319
What if I dropped the charges?

898
00:49:06,352 --> 00:49:08,075
What?

899
00:49:08,108 --> 00:49:11,389
What if I dropped the charges?

900
00:49:11,421 --> 00:49:12,747
It's nice that you're
feeling sorry for him,

901
00:49:12,779 --> 00:49:14,833
but I don't think it's
to his benefit.

902
00:49:14,867 --> 00:49:17,716
I'm not feeling sorry for him.

903
00:49:17,749 --> 00:49:20,532
I just want a solution
that benefits everyone.

904
00:49:20,565 --> 00:49:22,355
Like?

905
00:49:25,137 --> 00:49:31,962
He works for me after school
and Saturdays, free of charge.

906
00:49:31,995 --> 00:49:36,634
For... two months.

907
00:49:36,667 --> 00:49:38,953
Can she do this?

908
00:49:38,986 --> 00:49:41,736
She can drop the charges.
Sure.

909
00:49:41,769 --> 00:49:45,347
Then she request restitution.

910
00:49:45,380 --> 00:49:48,428
Knowing the judge,
she'll probably go for it.

911
00:49:48,461 --> 00:49:51,112
Keeps him out of the system andabides by the victim's wishes.

912
00:49:51,145 --> 00:49:52,934
What about the group?

913
00:49:52,967 --> 00:49:54,591
He'd have attend it,
or something like it.

914
00:49:54,624 --> 00:49:56,546
It's been mandated
by the court.

915
00:49:56,578 --> 00:49:58,467
Well he's not doing it here.

916
00:49:58,500 --> 00:50:01,879
You saw what went down.
Not gonna happen.

917
00:50:01,912 --> 00:50:05,193
If he's not doing the group,
I'm not either.

918
00:50:05,225 --> 00:50:08,804
I'm not mandated to be here
by any court.

919
00:50:08,836 --> 00:50:11,321
Me too.

920
00:50:11,355 --> 00:50:12,613
You have to come here.

921
00:50:12,647 --> 00:50:14,999
My dad wants me to switch.

922
00:50:15,032 --> 00:50:17,749
What about you?

923
00:50:17,782 --> 00:50:21,824
If you're now willing to do
this, none of this matters.

924
00:50:23,944 --> 00:50:25,037
Fine.

925
00:50:25,071 --> 00:50:28,020
Fine isn't gonna cut it.

926
00:50:28,052 --> 00:50:33,420
You have to listen to me
and do what I say.

927
00:50:33,453 --> 00:50:34,546
That goes in here too.

928
00:50:34,579 --> 00:50:37,263
You need to listen to Wallace.

929
00:50:42,995 --> 00:50:45,546
Do you still have my back?

930
00:50:45,579 --> 00:50:47,103
I do.

931
00:50:47,136 --> 00:50:48,792
Part of that is pointing you
in the right direction.

932
00:50:48,826 --> 00:50:51,079
This is it.

933
00:50:51,111 --> 00:50:53,895
Ah c'mon! He's not worth it.

934
00:50:53,927 --> 00:50:58,533
He ain't going to do it.

935
00:51:00,520 --> 00:51:03,503
I'm sorry about my
behavior, Wallace.

936
00:51:03,535 --> 00:51:05,988
I'd like to stay.

937
00:51:06,020 --> 00:51:08,969
I'll do what she says.

938
00:51:09,002 --> 00:51:10,858
Okay Mason.

939
00:51:10,890 --> 00:51:14,336
Welcome to the group.

940
00:51:14,370 --> 00:51:17,550
We'll try to make a fresh
start of this, huh?

941
00:51:22,817 --> 00:51:25,535
Hey, thanks for your help.

942
00:51:25,567 --> 00:51:27,787
Do you really think this
is going to work?

943
00:51:27,821 --> 00:51:29,742
It's all going to depend on him.

944
00:51:29,775 --> 00:51:32,393
He has zero chances left
and no other options.

945
00:51:32,425 --> 00:51:34,579
And that Ruby lady
sounds tough.

946
00:51:34,613 --> 00:51:36,070
I wouldn't want her
to be my boss.

947
00:51:36,103 --> 00:51:38,853
No, I wouldn't either.

948
00:51:41,404 --> 00:51:43,591
Alright.

949
00:51:43,624 --> 00:51:45,446
Let's get back to
the commandments.

950
00:51:45,479 --> 00:51:49,621
We were talking about how they
all deal with respect, right?

951
00:51:49,653 --> 00:51:52,569
Clearly we can see from
tonight's altercations

952
00:51:52,602 --> 00:51:58,334
that when there's no respect,
there's no peace.

953
00:51:58,367 --> 00:52:01,812
If you respect someone,
you don't steal from them,

954
00:52:01,846 --> 00:52:04,364
or lie to them, etc.

955
00:52:04,397 --> 00:52:08,604
And if you respect god,
you don't worship another one,

956
00:52:08,638 --> 00:52:10,096
you don't take his name in vain,

957
00:52:10,128 --> 00:52:14,104
and you don't work
on his day of rest.

958
00:52:17,119 --> 00:52:22,089
Mason, can you disagree?

959
00:52:22,121 --> 00:52:24,242
Your interpretation's fine.

960
00:52:24,275 --> 00:52:26,925
It's the idea that god
demands respect from us.

961
00:52:26,959 --> 00:52:28,450
What for?

962
00:52:28,483 --> 00:52:29,908
Just so he can feel
all high and mighty?

963
00:52:29,940 --> 00:52:31,763
Sounds like he has
an inferiority complex.

964
00:52:33,518 --> 00:52:36,103
You're talking about the
creator of the universe.

965
00:52:36,136 --> 00:52:38,290
I suggest you show
some respect,

966
00:52:38,322 --> 00:52:39,516
but I guess you think otherwise?

967
00:52:39,548 --> 00:52:41,404
'Creator of the universe.'

968
00:52:41,437 --> 00:52:43,325
and yet he's going to worry
what I think of him?

969
00:52:43,359 --> 00:52:46,042
What I call him?

970
00:52:46,075 --> 00:52:48,560
What if it was good for us?

971
00:52:48,594 --> 00:52:49,753
What, like vegetables?

972
00:52:49,786 --> 00:52:52,834
Exactly.

973
00:52:52,867 --> 00:52:56,445
What if honoring god actually
kept us safe and happy

974
00:52:56,479 --> 00:52:59,659
and living good lives?

975
00:52:59,692 --> 00:53:03,668
'How great is your goodness,

976
00:53:03,700 --> 00:53:08,207
which you have stored up
for those who fear you.'

977
00:53:08,239 --> 00:53:10,360
yeah, but you can't prove that.

978
00:53:10,393 --> 00:53:14,137
I said "what if it was".

979
00:53:14,170 --> 00:53:17,616
Well, I still don't think
it should be a commandment.

980
00:53:17,649 --> 00:53:20,664
'Thou must worship me and
only use my name for praise.'

981
00:53:20,697 --> 00:53:22,486
that's not someone
I want to follow.

982
00:53:22,519 --> 00:53:24,374
Clearly.

983
00:53:26,064 --> 00:53:27,489
But whether you
follow him or not

984
00:53:27,521 --> 00:53:30,338
those rules are still
the same.

985
00:53:30,371 --> 00:53:32,458
And, you know,
I worry about someone

986
00:53:32,492 --> 00:53:34,612
who can't even
consider the idea

987
00:53:34,645 --> 00:53:37,859
that there might be someone
or some thing

988
00:53:37,892 --> 00:53:41,371
that's actually more significantthan he is.

989
00:53:41,404 --> 00:53:43,889
You talk about an
inferiority complex?

990
00:53:43,921 --> 00:53:47,202
The opposite of that
is a god complex.

991
00:53:47,235 --> 00:53:51,608
Someone who won't extend any
common courtesy to anyone

992
00:53:51,641 --> 00:53:57,340
because he actually believeshe's better than everyone else.

993
00:53:57,372 --> 00:53:58,234
Wallace?

994
00:53:58,267 --> 00:53:59,725
Yes?

995
00:53:59,758 --> 00:54:01,779
Just a question about
what you told us before.

996
00:54:01,812 --> 00:54:04,098
Mmm hmm.

997
00:54:04,131 --> 00:54:09,200
Did you say that we're not hereto decide who's right or wrong,

998
00:54:09,234 --> 00:54:15,595
but understand life
and our own prejudices?

999
00:54:18,245 --> 00:54:22,320
Yes, yes, you're right.
Sorry.

1000
00:54:22,353 --> 00:54:24,970
You see, being human
is making mistakes.

1001
00:54:25,004 --> 00:54:28,549
What determines who we are is
how we handle those mistakes.

1002
00:54:28,582 --> 00:54:32,657
Saying 'please', 'thank you'
and 'I'm sorry' all mean

1003
00:54:32,690 --> 00:54:36,102
that you respect and care
about someone else

1004
00:54:36,136 --> 00:54:37,693
rather than just thinking
everyone else owes you

1005
00:54:37,726 --> 00:54:40,310
something because you're betterthan everyone else.

1006
00:54:40,343 --> 00:54:42,463
So Mason,
I'd like to apologize.

1007
00:54:42,497 --> 00:54:44,220
I'm sorry.

1008
00:54:49,321 --> 00:54:51,972
Thanks for standing up
for me in there.

1009
00:54:52,005 --> 00:54:54,987
Not what you expected
from the cookie server?

1010
00:54:55,020 --> 00:54:57,041
I see you at school a lot.

1011
00:54:57,074 --> 00:54:58,963
Mind if I come over
and talk sometime?

1012
00:54:58,995 --> 00:55:02,342
You're asking for permission
to talk to me?

1013
00:55:02,375 --> 00:55:03,601
I'm not making many friends.

1014
00:55:03,634 --> 00:55:04,992
I might not be good
for your rep.

1015
00:55:05,026 --> 00:55:06,218
I think my rep can take it.

1016
00:55:06,252 --> 00:55:08,471
Hello, Mason.

1017
00:55:10,360 --> 00:55:14,070
I see you've met my daughter.

1018
00:55:14,103 --> 00:55:21,558
Hey, hello Mr., I mean reverend, reverend fields.

1019
00:55:21,591 --> 00:55:23,612
Wow.

1020
00:55:23,645 --> 00:55:25,699
That is a change.

1021
00:55:25,732 --> 00:55:27,753
I guess this group has been
good for someone?

1022
00:55:27,786 --> 00:55:29,443
It means he cares.

1023
00:55:29,476 --> 00:55:32,259
Isn't that right Mason?

1024
00:56:15,694 --> 00:56:18,542
So the judge okay'd Mason
to work here?

1025
00:56:18,576 --> 00:56:21,226
Yes, and because you dropped
the vandalism charges

1026
00:56:21,260 --> 00:56:22,784
it won't go on his record.

1027
00:56:22,817 --> 00:56:24,208
Well, that's good.

1028
00:56:24,241 --> 00:56:26,229
But, believe me when
I get through with him,

1029
00:56:26,262 --> 00:56:28,979
that juvie thing's gonna
look pretty good.

1030
00:56:29,012 --> 00:56:31,563
I know that's true.

1031
00:56:31,596 --> 00:56:33,650
So when do I get my new
little helper?

1032
00:56:33,684 --> 00:56:35,439
Today.

1033
00:56:35,473 --> 00:56:38,851
The judge ordered him to start
today, right after school.

1034
00:56:38,885 --> 00:56:40,574
Hey, how'd it go
with Lacey?

1035
00:56:40,608 --> 00:56:41,668
I saw you guys eating together.

1036
00:56:41,701 --> 00:56:43,358
She's cool.

1037
00:56:43,390 --> 00:56:45,843
But kind of sad too.

1038
00:56:45,876 --> 00:56:48,393
And she won't tell me why
she's in the group.

1039
00:56:48,427 --> 00:56:50,381
And no visits to the office?

1040
00:56:50,415 --> 00:56:53,032
No.

1041
00:56:53,065 --> 00:56:56,510
Turns out please and thank you
really are the magic words.

1042
00:56:56,544 --> 00:56:58,001
Hey, when we get home do
you want to play video games?

1043
00:56:58,035 --> 00:56:59,625
I can't.

1044
00:56:59,658 --> 00:57:03,700
I gotta go to that lady's storeafter I walk you home.

1045
00:57:03,733 --> 00:57:06,714
Hey, how about you give me
a chance to redeem myself

1046
00:57:06,748 --> 00:57:09,133
this weekend from the beating
you gave me last time?

1047
00:57:09,167 --> 00:57:11,452
Bring it.

1048
00:57:17,151 --> 00:57:18,741
You're late.

1049
00:57:18,775 --> 00:57:20,564
It's 4:00.

1050
00:57:22,982 --> 00:57:24,771
You're kidding.

1051
00:57:24,804 --> 00:57:27,256
It's past 4:00
and you're late.

1052
00:57:27,289 --> 00:57:28,780
It's disrespectful.

1053
00:57:28,813 --> 00:57:29,741
I don't like how
this is starting.

1054
00:57:29,773 --> 00:57:31,364
Yeah, me either!

1055
00:57:31,397 --> 00:57:35,770
Then show some respect
for other people's time!

1056
00:57:35,804 --> 00:57:39,680
I'm sorry I'm late
Mrs. Worthy.

1057
00:57:39,713 --> 00:57:43,126
It's miss and you can
call me Ruby.

1058
00:57:43,158 --> 00:57:44,650
There's being respectful
and then there's just

1059
00:57:44,682 --> 00:57:48,028
making me feel old.

1060
00:57:48,062 --> 00:57:53,330
This entire building needs to becleaned and repainted.

1061
00:57:53,363 --> 00:57:55,748
All by myself?

1062
00:57:55,781 --> 00:58:00,486
Anyone else help ya graffiti
my wall?

1063
00:59:12,545 --> 00:59:14,964
This is my store and I wouldn'thave worked as hard on it

1064
00:59:14,997 --> 00:59:16,820
as you did.

1065
00:59:18,807 --> 00:59:20,166
Just doing what you told me to.

1066
00:59:20,198 --> 00:59:21,955
Easy kid.

1067
00:59:21,987 --> 00:59:23,909
I'm impressed.

1068
00:59:23,942 --> 00:59:26,526
You want a bag of chips
or a chocolate bar?

1069
00:59:26,560 --> 00:59:28,879
No. This is good.

1070
00:59:28,912 --> 00:59:33,418
And so you say...?

1071
00:59:33,451 --> 00:59:35,372
If somebody gives you
something you say to them...

1072
00:59:35,406 --> 00:59:37,129
Thank you.

1073
00:59:37,161 --> 00:59:38,387
That why you gave this to me?

1074
00:59:38,421 --> 00:59:39,414
What?

1075
00:59:39,448 --> 00:59:41,071
So I can hear you say thank you?

1076
00:59:41,104 --> 00:59:42,198
To put me in my place.

1077
00:59:42,230 --> 00:59:43,987
Sure.

1078
00:59:44,019 --> 00:59:45,279
I do nice things for people
al the time

1079
00:59:45,311 --> 00:59:47,167
so I can put them
in their place.

1080
00:59:47,200 --> 00:59:49,619
That'll teach you.

1081
01:00:00,884 --> 01:00:03,269
- It's Nate.
- Come in.

1082
01:00:03,301 --> 01:00:05,323
Was it really that bad?

1083
01:00:05,355 --> 01:00:06,382
She's loving it.

1084
01:00:06,416 --> 01:00:08,139
Treating me like this.

1085
01:00:08,172 --> 01:00:09,828
I was washing and scrubbing
the store the whole time.

1086
01:00:09,862 --> 01:00:11,186
Wow. That's a lot of work.

1087
01:00:11,220 --> 01:00:13,108
Yeah, I'm exhausted.

1088
01:00:13,142 --> 01:00:14,931
Jack used to love those days.

1089
01:00:14,963 --> 01:00:16,024
The days he felt like
he couldn't move

1090
01:00:16,057 --> 01:00:17,747
at the end of them.

1091
01:00:17,779 --> 01:00:19,470
He said it made life seem full.

1092
01:00:19,502 --> 01:00:22,716
Like he hadn't wasted any of it.

1093
01:00:22,749 --> 01:00:24,472
He sounds pretty cool.

1094
01:00:24,505 --> 01:00:27,222
Yeah, he was.

1095
01:00:33,318 --> 01:00:35,240
Hey, Mason.

1096
01:00:35,272 --> 01:00:37,095
You didn't make it home today.

1097
01:00:37,128 --> 01:00:38,652
I told Nate to tell you.

1098
01:00:38,686 --> 01:00:40,342
Yeah, no. He told me.

1099
01:00:40,375 --> 01:00:42,794
So, it's good that you wanted
to be here on time.

1100
01:00:42,826 --> 01:00:47,696
Just wanted to make sure
your day didn't go too crazy.

1101
01:00:47,730 --> 01:00:49,453
You mean, did I cause
any trouble?

1102
01:00:50,546 --> 01:00:52,368
Well, that too.

1103
01:00:52,402 --> 01:00:55,184
I was obedient.
I did what I was told.

1104
01:00:55,218 --> 01:00:56,973
It's all a part of life, buddy.

1105
01:00:57,007 --> 01:00:58,233
Just wait till you're married.

1106
01:00:58,265 --> 01:00:59,723
I'm gonna tell mom
you said that.

1107
01:00:59,757 --> 01:01:01,745
Go ahead.
It'll make her happy.

1108
01:01:01,777 --> 01:01:04,262
Make her feel like
she's doing her job.

1109
01:01:04,296 --> 01:01:05,985
All right, well.

1110
01:01:06,018 --> 01:01:07,840
Doing good. Keep it up.

1111
01:01:07,873 --> 01:01:09,431
Don't be too late.

1112
01:01:09,464 --> 01:01:10,755
Remember you have
group meeting tonight too.

1113
01:01:10,789 --> 01:01:14,135
Oh, joy.

1114
01:01:15,593 --> 01:01:22,683
Anyone here not broken one
of the ten commandments?

1115
01:01:27,851 --> 01:01:29,740
See what I mean?

1116
01:01:29,773 --> 01:01:31,198
Hmmm.

1117
01:01:31,231 --> 01:01:32,390
Anyone could set up
a bunch of rules

1118
01:01:32,424 --> 01:01:34,643
and in no time they'd be broken.

1119
01:01:34,676 --> 01:01:39,116
Good point, so why have them?

1120
01:01:39,149 --> 01:01:41,767
Laws are there to protect us.

1121
01:01:41,799 --> 01:01:45,642
Structure helps us feel secure.

1122
01:01:48,094 --> 01:01:50,844
It's like with a dog.

1123
01:01:50,877 --> 01:01:53,296
If you let it know
you're the boss,

1124
01:01:53,329 --> 01:01:56,510
it knows what it can
and cannot do.

1125
01:01:56,542 --> 01:01:58,729
Yeah, but that's a dog.

1126
01:01:58,762 --> 01:02:00,584
People want freedom.

1127
01:02:00,618 --> 01:02:03,334
And if you have to dictate
that someone follow you,

1128
01:02:03,368 --> 01:02:06,084
what have you really gained?

1129
01:02:06,118 --> 01:02:09,630
Probably resentment and anger.

1130
01:02:09,662 --> 01:02:12,280
And if you're just setting uprules so that people fail them,

1131
01:02:12,312 --> 01:02:14,400
well, what's the point?

1132
01:02:14,434 --> 01:02:16,753
Just to make them feel bad.

1133
01:02:16,785 --> 01:02:19,502
And that they now owe
you something.

1134
01:02:19,535 --> 01:02:23,412
How's it feel Mason to have
Dee supporting you?

1135
01:02:23,743 --> 01:02:26,526
Okay... maybe a
little suspicious,

1136
01:02:26,559 --> 01:02:28,978
but good.

1137
01:02:29,011 --> 01:02:31,462
Like maybe Dee and Lacey
are listening to you

1138
01:02:31,496 --> 01:02:35,040
and respect your opinion, hmm?

1139
01:02:35,074 --> 01:02:36,564
Sure.

1140
01:02:36,598 --> 01:02:40,839
And that in doing so,
they respect you?

1141
01:02:40,871 --> 01:02:42,793
Think about it.

1142
01:02:42,826 --> 01:02:46,503
Okay, I guess.

1143
01:02:46,868 --> 01:02:51,175
Let's all think about that.

1144
01:02:51,209 --> 01:02:53,130
Think about all the people
that we fight with

1145
01:02:53,163 --> 01:02:56,344
and argue with
and do not listen to.

1146
01:02:56,376 --> 01:02:59,657
Or god.

1147
01:02:59,690 --> 01:03:05,620
Are we doing it for good
reasons or pride?

1148
01:03:05,653 --> 01:03:07,906
Are we putting our ego,
our wants, our name,

1149
01:03:07,939 --> 01:03:13,572
ahead of everyone else,
and him?

1150
01:03:13,604 --> 01:03:17,349
Is that what we're doing?

1151
01:03:38,685 --> 01:03:42,163
If you really...

1152
01:03:42,197 --> 01:03:47,133
If I was...

1153
01:03:47,166 --> 01:03:51,009
Oh, forget it.

1154
01:04:02,406 --> 01:04:03,301
Hey, what are you doing?

1155
01:04:03,334 --> 01:04:05,288
It's late.

1156
01:04:05,322 --> 01:04:08,867
Yeah, I'm just trying
to finish up.

1157
01:04:10,126 --> 01:04:11,948
You've a gift.

1158
01:04:13,141 --> 01:04:15,129
Grunt labor. Thanks.

1159
01:04:15,161 --> 01:04:17,083
At working hard.

1160
01:04:17,116 --> 01:04:20,860
And being precise and diligent.

1161
01:04:20,893 --> 01:04:24,769
You know, god gives each of us
a unique gift.

1162
01:04:24,803 --> 01:04:29,143
It would be a waste
to lose that.

1163
01:04:29,176 --> 01:04:33,748
And if you're going to say
'thanks' - mean it.

1164
01:04:33,781 --> 01:04:36,034
Yeah, but what you're
praising me for is easy.

1165
01:04:36,067 --> 01:04:37,889
'Hurray, I can paint and clean.'

1166
01:04:37,923 --> 01:04:39,910
not like this.

1167
01:04:39,943 --> 01:04:43,323
People can't do this
like you do.

1168
01:04:43,356 --> 01:04:48,558
People would pay good money
for work like this.

1169
01:04:48,590 --> 01:04:50,479
Matter of fact,

1170
01:04:50,512 --> 01:04:53,229
I think I could get you
some work.

1171
01:04:53,262 --> 01:04:54,952
Really?

1172
01:04:54,985 --> 01:04:58,198
You mean I'd get paid?

1173
01:04:58,232 --> 01:05:01,644
It's 'grunt' work.

1174
01:05:01,677 --> 01:05:03,864
Well, it's a good thing
I'm gifted at that!

1175
01:05:06,911 --> 01:05:09,264
I could set up a meeting
with some people

1176
01:05:09,298 --> 01:05:11,219
that might be interested
in your work

1177
01:05:11,252 --> 01:05:14,399
and we can have it
here at the store

1178
01:05:14,433 --> 01:05:17,580
and show off your work.

1179
01:05:21,456 --> 01:05:23,279
Wow!

1180
01:05:24,239 --> 01:05:26,194
Right on!

1181
01:05:26,227 --> 01:05:30,832
I mean, yes please!

1182
01:05:30,865 --> 01:05:33,847
Thank you, Ruby.

1183
01:05:33,880 --> 01:05:36,564
Now that sounded genuine.

1184
01:05:46,370 --> 01:05:47,994
I need to borrow
your window again.

1185
01:05:48,027 --> 01:05:49,054
What for?

1186
01:05:49,087 --> 01:05:50,843
I said I'd meet Lacey.

1187
01:05:50,877 --> 01:05:52,831
But you're not allowed out
and you've been doing so well.

1188
01:05:52,864 --> 01:05:54,620
I'm not some puppy.

1189
01:05:54,653 --> 01:05:56,012
Okay, I'm not just doing well
when I'm following orders.

1190
01:05:56,044 --> 01:05:58,728
Might work for you
but not for me.

1191
01:05:58,762 --> 01:06:00,782
Okay. Fine.

1192
01:06:04,791 --> 01:06:06,713
I like it out here.

1193
01:06:06,745 --> 01:06:08,502
Big and open.

1194
01:06:11,318 --> 01:06:14,233
No rules. No judgments.

1195
01:06:15,625 --> 01:06:18,242
There's a small chapel
in there that I like too.

1196
01:06:18,275 --> 01:06:22,880
It's private and never used.

1197
01:06:22,914 --> 01:06:26,458
I like being alone
sometimes too.

1198
01:06:26,492 --> 01:06:31,362
I guess when it feels like
I can't trust anyone else.

1199
01:06:31,395 --> 01:06:33,615
You asked about the group.

1200
01:06:33,648 --> 01:06:37,988
I'm there because of bullying,
online mostly.

1201
01:06:38,022 --> 01:06:39,380
I wasn't the only one!

1202
01:06:39,412 --> 01:06:40,738
It's not like I thought
I was being mean.

1203
01:06:40,771 --> 01:06:42,461
I was just...

1204
01:06:42,494 --> 01:06:45,409
Commenting, being funny,
and then dishing it out

1205
01:06:45,443 --> 01:06:47,894
better than anyone else could.

1206
01:06:47,927 --> 01:06:50,147
That's happened to me.

1207
01:06:50,181 --> 01:06:51,539
New kid with everyone
whispering and making fun

1208
01:06:51,571 --> 01:06:53,527
behind my back.

1209
01:06:53,559 --> 01:06:55,912
Well, who are you to judge?!

1210
01:06:55,945 --> 01:06:57,833
Everyone is bending over
backwards to help you

1211
01:06:57,867 --> 01:07:01,179
and you're treating them
like dirt!

1212
01:07:01,213 --> 01:07:02,273
Lacey?

1213
01:07:02,306 --> 01:07:04,029
What are you doing out here?

1214
01:07:04,062 --> 01:07:06,083
I was worried about you.

1215
01:07:06,116 --> 01:07:08,733
And Mason.

1216
01:07:08,767 --> 01:07:11,848
Son, this is not good.

1217
01:07:21,290 --> 01:07:23,510
That was really stupid.

1218
01:07:23,543 --> 01:07:25,034
Do you just not care?

1219
01:07:25,067 --> 01:07:26,226
I met a girl!
What's the big deal?

1220
01:07:26,260 --> 01:07:27,287
Oh don't Mason!

1221
01:07:27,319 --> 01:07:29,606
You know what the big deal is.

1222
01:07:29,639 --> 01:07:32,753
You were given special treatmentand this is what you do.

1223
01:07:32,787 --> 01:07:34,608
You break rules.

1224
01:07:34,642 --> 01:07:36,265
You betray trust.

1225
01:07:36,299 --> 01:07:38,518
You dishonor people
who are trying to help you!

1226
01:07:38,551 --> 01:07:39,645
They'll get over it.

1227
01:07:39,677 --> 01:07:42,461
Yeah, well what about Nate?

1228
01:07:42,493 --> 01:07:45,608
He's in trouble now too.

1229
01:07:45,641 --> 01:07:50,180
Don't you ever think
of anyone but yourself?

1230
01:08:05,751 --> 01:08:08,998
Hey, Nate.

1231
01:08:09,032 --> 01:08:11,616
I'm sorry, man,
you don't deserve this.

1232
01:08:11,648 --> 01:08:13,371
Was it worth it at least?

1233
01:08:13,405 --> 01:08:15,459
No. She's mad,
and I'm in trouble.

1234
01:08:15,491 --> 01:08:17,712
I don't think
I'll see her again.

1235
01:08:17,745 --> 01:08:20,694
Oh, sorry.

1236
01:08:20,726 --> 01:08:24,537
Yeah.

1237
01:08:27,386 --> 01:08:28,910
It's your risk now.

1238
01:08:28,943 --> 01:08:31,527
Are you sure you want
to vouch for him?

1239
01:08:31,560 --> 01:08:33,217
Yes, we do.

1240
01:08:33,250 --> 01:08:35,039
Yeah, we'll do whatever it
takes to keep him here.

1241
01:08:35,072 --> 01:08:36,530
Okay.

1242
01:08:36,563 --> 01:08:39,114
Anything goes wrong now
and you're on the hook.

1243
01:08:39,148 --> 01:08:41,069
You're call.

1244
01:08:47,198 --> 01:08:50,577
Oh, looks like the authorities
are back next door.

1245
01:08:50,611 --> 01:08:55,150
And I was just getting used
to that boy.

1246
01:08:55,182 --> 01:08:56,408
Okay.

1247
01:08:56,442 --> 01:08:59,192
So the next steps are up to you.

1248
01:09:00,550 --> 01:09:03,465
Got it. Thank you.

1249
01:09:03,498 --> 01:09:06,347
You bet.

1250
01:09:06,381 --> 01:09:09,727
No one's ever stood up for me
like this.

1251
01:09:09,760 --> 01:09:12,675
You're welcome.

1252
01:09:12,709 --> 01:09:14,829
Hey, don't forget
you have that meeting.

1253
01:09:14,862 --> 01:09:16,618
C'mon, I'll take you
to the meeting

1254
01:09:16,651 --> 01:09:19,401
with Wallace and
reverend fields.

1255
01:09:20,494 --> 01:09:23,112
Come on, let's go.

1256
01:09:24,570 --> 01:09:28,214
Do you want to change groups?

1257
01:09:31,825 --> 01:09:33,614
Are you sure?

1258
01:09:35,967 --> 01:09:39,048
Because to stay means hard
work from everybody in here,

1259
01:09:39,080 --> 01:09:41,300
especially you.

1260
01:09:46,634 --> 01:09:48,158
It means you're gonna
have to start thinking

1261
01:09:48,192 --> 01:09:51,173
about other people son,
before yourself.

1262
01:09:51,207 --> 01:09:55,116
I'm sorry about last night.

1263
01:09:55,149 --> 01:09:59,092
How's Lacey?

1264
01:09:59,125 --> 01:10:04,426
Don't you worry about her,
this is about you, Mason.

1265
01:10:04,459 --> 01:10:08,534
This is your life.

1266
01:10:08,567 --> 01:10:13,173
Do you have what it takes to
get through all of this, son?

1267
01:10:16,254 --> 01:10:18,075
I don't know.

1268
01:10:20,693 --> 01:10:23,840
You know, things finally seemedto be going good and now,

1269
01:10:23,874 --> 01:10:26,425
now it seems even worse.

1270
01:10:26,458 --> 01:10:28,909
Well, that's why you have to
make the best of what you have

1271
01:10:28,943 --> 01:10:32,521
and most importantly,
be thankful for it.

1272
01:10:32,554 --> 01:10:34,972
Even for the people
who are trying to keep you

1273
01:10:35,006 --> 01:10:36,298
on the right track.

1274
01:10:36,330 --> 01:10:38,882
It isn't always all good.

1275
01:10:40,803 --> 01:10:44,183
That's just life, pal.

1276
01:10:47,595 --> 01:10:52,267
I have to go to the bathroom,
if that's allowed.

1277
01:10:52,300 --> 01:10:56,541
Sure.

1278
01:11:14,497 --> 01:11:15,922
I need help.

1279
01:11:17,811 --> 01:11:22,713
And I've asked you
for stuff before but...

1280
01:11:22,747 --> 01:11:26,656
But I think I need
forgiveness more.

1281
01:11:26,689 --> 01:11:28,478
The little bit of respect
and love I get

1282
01:11:28,512 --> 01:11:32,024
I don't even deserve.

1283
01:11:32,056 --> 01:11:37,424
But you, you deserve it all.

1284
01:11:37,457 --> 01:11:42,725
And I can't even respect
your name...

1285
01:11:42,758 --> 01:11:44,514
I'm sorry.

1286
01:11:46,270 --> 01:11:47,330
I'm so sorry.

1287
01:11:47,363 --> 01:11:51,007
Heavenly father, lord,

1288
01:11:51,041 --> 01:11:55,248
let me start by just
honoring your name.

1289
01:11:55,281 --> 01:11:58,164
Let me just start
by respecting you...

1290
01:11:58,196 --> 01:11:59,887
And wanting to please you.

1291
01:11:59,919 --> 01:12:03,597
Not because I have to,

1292
01:12:03,630 --> 01:12:06,446
but because you deserve it.

1293
01:12:10,787 --> 01:12:15,855
So, how many chances
do we give the kid?

1294
01:12:15,889 --> 01:12:17,512
I have no idea.

1295
01:12:17,545 --> 01:12:19,201
I don't think it's our call.

1296
01:12:19,235 --> 01:12:23,045
Between the foster office
and the courts,

1297
01:12:23,078 --> 01:12:24,834
they've had enough.

1298
01:12:28,379 --> 01:12:29,108
Where is he?

1299
01:12:29,140 --> 01:12:30,930
We gotta leave.

1300
01:12:42,493 --> 01:12:47,661
And please help me to think
of others, like you lord,

1301
01:12:47,694 --> 01:12:50,875
and not just myself.

1302
01:12:59,290 --> 01:13:02,007
Lacey.

1303
01:13:06,512 --> 01:13:08,865
Lacey.

1304
01:13:13,735 --> 01:13:15,160
Lacey.

1305
01:13:18,506 --> 01:13:20,957
I'm so sorry about last night.

1306
01:13:20,991 --> 01:13:22,316
I really am.

1307
01:13:22,349 --> 01:13:22,812
I'm an idiot.

1308
01:13:22,846 --> 01:13:24,138
Fine.

1309
01:13:24,171 --> 01:13:26,192
You're sorry, please leave.

1310
01:13:31,559 --> 01:13:35,236
I've been so worried about
not letting anyone be above me

1311
01:13:35,270 --> 01:13:37,954
that I've failed to see
what I'm doing to others.

1312
01:13:37,986 --> 01:13:40,040
And I had no right to judge.

1313
01:13:40,074 --> 01:13:42,758
Okay, I want to be alone.

1314
01:13:45,805 --> 01:13:50,410
I was just outside thinking
what would a girl who lives

1315
01:13:50,444 --> 01:13:53,856
by texting be doing writing
on a crummy piece of paper?

1316
01:13:55,878 --> 01:13:58,229
I'm guessing that's a pretty
personal note trying

1317
01:13:58,263 --> 01:14:03,829
to explain something really bad, that can't be undone.

1318
01:14:03,861 --> 01:14:08,533
Hey, I've written notes
like that too.

1319
01:14:08,567 --> 01:14:11,383
When I've really messed up.

1320
01:14:11,415 --> 01:14:14,596
When I've felt really alone.

1321
01:14:14,629 --> 01:14:18,969
I never did anything with them, but came close.

1322
01:14:19,003 --> 01:14:21,388
All my friends
have turned on me.

1323
01:14:21,421 --> 01:14:24,237
Like I'm some sort of loser.

1324
01:14:24,270 --> 01:14:28,942
Like I don't count for anything.

1325
01:14:28,974 --> 01:14:33,646
And my dad, he's great,
but he just doesn't get it.

1326
01:14:36,694 --> 01:14:39,047
But I do.

1327
01:14:39,080 --> 01:14:42,161
And you, you count
for a whole lot.

1328
01:14:42,194 --> 01:14:45,374
And I'm not going anywhere.

1329
01:14:45,408 --> 01:14:47,131
I used to be popular.

1330
01:14:48,290 --> 01:14:50,112
I can see it.

1331
01:14:50,145 --> 01:14:51,736
The pretty girl serving
perfect cookies

1332
01:14:51,769 --> 01:14:54,087
to all her perfect friends.

1333
01:14:54,121 --> 01:14:55,810
Not so perfect.

1334
01:14:55,844 --> 01:14:58,329
Look at me now.

1335
01:14:58,362 --> 01:15:00,482
Here with an outcast like me.

1336
01:15:00,515 --> 01:15:04,557
But you know something,
it's okay.

1337
01:15:04,590 --> 01:15:07,307
Cause we got a friend
in common.

1338
01:15:07,340 --> 01:15:08,964
Who?

1339
01:15:11,217 --> 01:15:13,237
Jesus.

1340
01:15:13,271 --> 01:15:14,994
Mason, I...

1341
01:15:15,026 --> 01:15:17,445
I know. I know.

1342
01:15:17,479 --> 01:15:21,653
It's a lot to take, especially
from someone like me, right?

1343
01:15:21,686 --> 01:15:26,622
Yeah, I heard it all my life,
over and over,

1344
01:15:26,656 --> 01:15:29,504
but it's never made
sense until today.

1345
01:15:29,538 --> 01:15:33,977
Until I realized how
I was treating him.

1346
01:15:36,296 --> 01:15:39,080
I knew god brought you here
for a reason.

1347
01:15:39,112 --> 01:15:40,239
Reverend fields...
I'm sorry I didn't come...

1348
01:15:40,272 --> 01:15:42,690
Son, it's okay.

1349
01:15:42,724 --> 01:15:45,606
Oh, sweetie...

1350
01:15:47,992 --> 01:15:50,112
I am sorry.

1351
01:15:55,678 --> 01:15:58,991
Thank you, son.

1352
01:15:59,024 --> 01:16:00,183
Really.

1353
01:16:00,217 --> 01:16:02,006
Thank you.

1354
01:16:04,789 --> 01:16:08,930
Ah, oh my goodness.

1355
01:16:08,963 --> 01:16:10,521
You're late.

1356
01:16:10,553 --> 01:16:11,845
Wallace asked me to get you
to Ruby's.

1357
01:16:11,879 --> 01:16:14,132
Come on, we gotta go.

1358
01:16:14,165 --> 01:16:15,722
I put my neck out for you!

1359
01:16:15,755 --> 01:16:17,676
And now he's gone.

1360
01:16:17,710 --> 01:16:19,698
Hang on a second, Ruby.

1361
01:16:19,730 --> 01:16:23,342
Lacey was in some trouble.

1362
01:16:23,375 --> 01:16:24,336
Mason helped her.

1363
01:16:24,369 --> 01:16:26,887
He did. A lot.

1364
01:16:26,920 --> 01:16:30,697
It doesn't matter.
He's gone.

1365
01:16:30,730 --> 01:16:33,049
Why's this so important to you?

1366
01:16:33,083 --> 01:16:36,826
I, I was, I was gonna supply
the paint and equipment

1367
01:16:36,860 --> 01:16:39,146
up front for the job.

1368
01:16:39,178 --> 01:16:46,500
I'm behind on bills and the
bank's ready to foreclose.

1369
01:16:46,534 --> 01:16:50,178
You should, dad.

1370
01:16:50,211 --> 01:16:51,304
Well, you know, we've got
a lot of work that needs

1371
01:16:51,338 --> 01:16:55,147
to be done at the church.

1372
01:16:55,181 --> 01:16:56,904
You did a great job.

1373
01:16:59,620 --> 01:17:01,509
I'll tell you what, Ruby.

1374
01:17:01,542 --> 01:17:03,695
We'll buy that paint and
the equipment from you.

1375
01:17:03,728 --> 01:17:07,141
What do you say?

1376
01:17:07,174 --> 01:17:09,262
You still interested, Mason?

1377
01:17:09,294 --> 01:17:11,183
Yeah!

1378
01:17:11,216 --> 01:17:12,508
Thank you reverend!

1379
01:17:12,541 --> 01:17:15,689
I mean, if that's still okay
with Ruby?

1380
01:17:15,722 --> 01:17:20,890
Well, I don't want to lose
my best worker

1381
01:17:20,923 --> 01:17:23,905
unless you're willing
to come back.

1382
01:17:23,938 --> 01:17:25,794
Of course.

1383
01:17:25,826 --> 01:17:27,880
Thank you Ruby.

1384
01:17:27,914 --> 01:17:29,306
What's going on?

1385
01:17:29,338 --> 01:17:30,598
Ruby called and said you
didn't show up.

1386
01:17:30,630 --> 01:17:32,387
Tom, it's okay.

1387
01:17:32,419 --> 01:17:35,434
Mason has a good reason
for not showing up.

1388
01:17:35,468 --> 01:17:38,350
He was helping my daughter.

1389
01:17:38,383 --> 01:17:41,233
Mason just got hired by
my dad to paint the church.

1390
01:17:41,265 --> 01:17:43,253
And they're gonna by all
the supplies and paint

1391
01:17:43,287 --> 01:17:45,705
right here at my place.

1392
01:17:45,738 --> 01:17:47,130
Way to go, Mason!

1393
01:17:47,162 --> 01:17:49,880
Well, he did such a great
job painting Ruby's store

1394
01:17:49,912 --> 01:17:51,503
it was really a no-brainer
to bring him through

1395
01:17:51,536 --> 01:17:53,789
and help us redo the church.

1396
01:17:53,822 --> 01:17:55,545
We're all very proud
of you, Mason.

1397
01:17:55,578 --> 01:17:57,036
Thanks.

1398
01:17:57,069 --> 01:18:00,017
Yeah, we really are.
You did such a great job.

1399
01:18:00,051 --> 01:18:02,801
I've only got one thing to say.

1400
01:18:04,921 --> 01:18:06,279
Welcome to the family.

1401
01:18:07,969 --> 01:18:10,056
Oh.

1402
01:18:12,971 --> 01:18:14,993
So you see,

1403
01:18:15,025 --> 01:18:19,995
all this young boy needed
was a chance.

1404
01:18:20,029 --> 01:18:27,086
A feeling that someone would
stand by him no matter what.

1405
01:18:27,118 --> 01:18:33,711
He needed someone
to teach him reverence.

1406
01:18:34,838 --> 01:18:38,780
Exodus 20:7.

1407
01:18:38,814 --> 01:18:43,419
"Thou shalt not take the name
of the lord thy god in vain;

1408
01:18:43,452 --> 01:18:48,091
for the lord will not hold him
guiltless that taketh

1409
01:18:48,123 --> 01:18:51,966
his name in vain."

1410
01:18:52,000 --> 01:18:55,711
"Will not hold him guiltless..."

1411
01:18:55,743 --> 01:18:59,951
The passage is also one of the
ten commandments, as we know,

1412
01:18:59,984 --> 01:19:02,966
but it's interesting that it
has that additional warning

1413
01:19:02,999 --> 01:19:05,219
attached to the end of it.

1414
01:19:05,252 --> 01:19:08,797
"The lord will not hold
him guiltless..."

1415
01:19:08,830 --> 01:19:12,839
I don't know about you all,
but I sure do not want to be

1416
01:19:12,872 --> 01:19:16,483
not found "guiltless"
when judgment day comes.

1417
01:19:16,516 --> 01:19:18,637
Can I get an amen to that?

1418
01:19:18,670 --> 01:19:20,790
Amen!

1419
01:19:20,824 --> 01:19:23,143
So as you see,

1420
01:19:23,175 --> 01:19:27,052
Mason learned
this special commandment

1421
01:19:27,085 --> 01:19:34,109
focuses on the importance
of showing respect,

1422
01:19:34,142 --> 01:19:36,064
because respect,
it's a high standard.

1423
01:19:36,097 --> 01:19:39,410
It demonstrates to us the way
we should communicate

1424
01:19:39,443 --> 01:19:45,175
with others and the way we
should communicate with god,

1425
01:19:45,207 --> 01:19:50,011
to the lord himself.

1426
01:19:50,045 --> 01:19:55,346
Remember, it is respect
that is the foundation

1427
01:19:55,379 --> 01:19:59,057
for every relationship.

1428
01:19:59,089 --> 01:20:04,224
It also depends on the way
we express respect for him,

1429
01:20:04,258 --> 01:20:10,851
god almighty, in the presence
of others.

1430
01:20:10,884 --> 01:20:13,866
Let us pray.

1431
01:20:13,899 --> 01:20:16,582
Dear heavenly father,

1432
01:20:16,616 --> 01:20:24,633
we come before you today
to praise and honor

1433
01:20:24,666 --> 01:20:26,621
your holy name...
