[music playing]

Huh.

Yeah, this part of the world
sure hasn't changed much.

Uh, change from what?

From what it was
like when I was a kid.

But you are from Oakland.

What do you know about Oklahoma?

Well, I spent some
time out here when I was

a kid on my grandpa's ranch.

Boy, I tell you it's
hardly changed at all.

[tyre punctures]

Oh, great.

Just terrific.

More car trouble
since I've known you.

It goes with the territory.

I don't suppose you could
just sort of, you know,

lay a little power on it,
save some time and effort.

Mark, I'm an angel.

I'm not the Auto Club.

Terrific.

Could you lend a wing?

Be my pleasure.

We'd better find a
place to spend the night.

No streetlights.

I can hardly see a thing.

Yeah, there should be a
little town up here somewhere.

Yeah, Twin Rivers.

It's the closest place
to my grandpa's ranch.

And we're in the neighborhood.

Do you want to stop and see
some old friends or something?

Nah.

Grandpa died when I was a kid.

There's nobody left around here.

It might be fun for you
to stop by the old ranch.

I doubt if there's
anything left.

Probably subdivided into
condos, or something like that.

I think that's what really
killed him, you know,

losing the place,
even back then.

I know he wanted something to
hand down to his grandkids.

Look at me.

You didn't make it?

Nah.

I don't think I'd have made
much of a farmer anyhow.

Oh, he wanted
something to hand down.

It's during World War II.

Dad was in the Army.

My mom took sick.

Sent me out of here to spend
some time with my grandpa.

Boy, I haven't thought
about him a long time.

Sounds like you two
were pretty close.

Nah, not really.

Not back then.

You know, I think he
died not really knowing

how much he meant to me.

One hell of an old man.

[brakes squealing]

[car honks]

What's the problem?

My friend went off the road.
He's hurt pretty bad.

We got to get him to a hospital.

Hospital's nearly
50 miles away.

We got a doctor in Twin Rivers.
I'll give you a hand.

Thank you.

[door knocking] Hey, Doc.

Doc, wake up.

DOCTOR: Thurman,
what's all the ruckus?

Doc, I've got a fella out
in the car, hurt pretty bad.

DOCTOR: Well, get him in here.

Put him down right here.

Why don't you two wait
in the front room?

There's hardly enough
space in here for me.

All right, Doc.

What happened, Thurman?

Oh, this fellow and his
friend were in a car accident.

Doc's taking a look at
the other fellow now.

I'll put some coffee on.

Oh, don't bother anybody.

Oh, no bother.

None for me, Flora.

I got to get back to the house.

Well, this young man looks
like you could use some.

I got to be going.

Good luck to you
and your friend.

I can't thank you enough.

For what?

For stopping on the road back
there and bringing us here.

Ah, you ain't from
around here, are you?

No, I'm not.

Around here, folks
do for one another.

Good luck.

Thurman?

Here's some biscuits,
left over from dinner.

And if you weren't so stubborn,
I'd heat them up for you.

Thank you very much.

You take care.

You had anything to eat?

Oh, I'm fine, really.

Thank you.

Well, I'll get
that coffee for you.

Is he going to
be all right, Doc?

It's hard to tell.

Nothing broken.

He has a concussion.

Head injuries are tricky.

Can I say him?

Well, sure.

He's liable to drift in
and out of consciousness.

They do that sometimes.

Come on.

Mark?

Mark, can you hear me?

Please try to listen
to me if you can.

You got to fight
this thing, buddy.

You gotta fight.

It's not your time to die.

It's not you time.

Son, I'd say that
was in God's hands

right now, not yours or mine.

You'd better let me
check you out too.

You're a little
shaken up yourself.

No.
I'm all right.

That won't be necessary.

Uh-huh.

I'll say what's
necessary and what isn't.

That's funny.

What?

You don't have any heartbeat.

I mean I know that can't be.

Sorry, you'd be
dead as a door nail,

but I couldn't hear anything.

Maybe you probably just
have a bad connection.

Why don't you try it again?

(LAUGHINGLY) Well,
I'll be darned.

I do hear it now.

It's the strongest heart
I've ever heard in my life.

Yeah, you seem fit.

You're welcome to sleep
on the couch if you like.

We won't know anything about
your friend for quite a while.

I'll just stay here with him
if it's all right with you.

No.

Suit yourself.

I smell some coffee
brewing if you like some.

If you need me, just holler.

Thank you, Doc.

[music playing]

Granddad.

Granddad.

Mark?

Mark?

Jonathan?

I am right here, buddy.

I smell breakfast.

Welcome back.

I'll tell you it's the
most remarkable thing

I've ever seen in my life.

Oh, you mean how
quick he recovered?

No.

I mean how much he
ate for breakfast.

[laughter]

Doc, I can't thank you
enough for what you did for.

Didn't do a thing.

Beats me the way he
recovered like he did.

I'd take it easy
though if I were you.

Oh, I will.

But is there a place around
here we could rent a room?

If you want to pay, there
are a couple of rooming houses.

And if you don't,
there's a Simms place.

They'll give you lodging
in exchange for work.

They still call it that?

DOCTOR: Call it what?

The Simms place.

Um, it's the only
thing they've ever called

it as far as I can remember.

So why don't we
try that, Jonathan.

I'd like to see the
old place again.

Certainly, you got it.

Hey, Doc, thanks a
lot for what you did.

It's OK.

I'm glad everything
worked out the way it did.

Ma'am, thank you
for that breakfast.

It was a pleasure.

You take care now.

Remember, try not to overdo.

I won't let him.

DOCTOR: [laughs]

DOCTOR: [laughs]

I can't get over it.

What's that?

They still call the
ranch the Simms place.

You know, it was
my granddad's name,

or at least they used to be.

Carl Fred Simms.

Probably these small
towns, the old timers

probably just call a place
where they always call it.

Yeah, you're probably right.

And I cannot believe
this place has

not changed an iota since I was
a kid, not even a little bit.

Look at these cars.

They're old.
All right.

I'm surprised people
haven't sold them.

You know, these cars are
worth a lot of money nowadays.

I bet they're.

It's there.

What?

Music.

Even it hasn't changed.

It must be one of those
oldies but goodies station.

Spooky.

I mean nice, but spooky.

Well, come on, we've got
a long walk ahead of us.

Dear God, the
old Moony Bridge.

JONATHAN: How does
it look to you?

Any different?

MARK: Like I walked away
from it 5 minutes ago.

You know it's been
almost 40 years.

I spent some time here.

Yeah, doing what?
Fishing?

No.

playing hooky.

I used to tell my granddad
I was going to school.

I come down here.

Mope around all day wishing
I was back in Oakland.

Boy, I tell you,
I love this spot.

Hey.

Are you all right?

Yeah, I got a little
dizzy there for a minute.

Are you sure?

Yeah, I'm fine.

Hey, take a look.

Looks like somebody
stole your spot, huh?

Yeah, looks like it.

Hi there.

What do you want?

I am not supposed
to talk to hobos.

What?

You look like bums.

Got a real sweetheart here.

Hey, kid, you know I
used to hang around here.

I used to play hooky here.

I ain't playing hooky.

- Nobody said you were.
- No.

We're just looking for work.

We heard there was some
at the Simms place.

Yeah, if you go
down there, you'd

better not rat on me to my
granddad about playing hooky.

You better not, or I'll tell the
Sheriff you tried to hurt me.

Nobody's going to rat on you.

What's your grandpa's
name anyway?

Why are you stupid?

You're about the most
obnoxious little brat

I've ever met in my life.

Why is that?

So why are we stupid?

Because you said you were
looking for the Simms place.

Why do you think
they called it that?

That's my granddad's
name, Mr. Simms.

What's your name?

And what's it to you?

So I don't have to
call you, hey you.

What's your name?

Mark.

Mark Gordon.

MARK: Jonathan,
what's happening?

That kid was me.

I mean, he was me when
I was nine years old.

JONATHAN: That's right.

Same sweet disposition and all.

MARK: But how can that be?

JONATHAN: Remember what you told
me back in the car about how

your grandfather died
before you ever got to tell

him how you felt about it?

MARK: Yeah.

JONATHAN: You're getting
a second chance, Mark.

You're getting a
chance in this life

to get that little boy who was
you to tell his grandfather how

much he really loved it.

MARK: You knew all along?

JONATHAN: No.

No, I didn't know
until I met the boy.

Then I knew.

MARK: What is this?

A dream?

JONATHAN: Does it
feel like a dream?

MARK: No.

Then it isn't.

Mr. Simms?

Yeah.

I wonder if we could
have a word with you, sir.

What can I do for you?

Granddad.

What?

Oh, nothing.

You just remind me of my
granddad, that is all.

Oh, I do.

Do I?

Yes, sir.

Well, from the
way you sound like

you're trying to self-soap me.

I figure you're out here
looking for a handout.

If that's the case, you're
barking up the wrong tree.

Now get off my land before
I get the law on you.

Judas Priest!

First, two bums,
and now another.

Only this one wears
a Sunday school suit.

Now I know where you
got your disposition from.

Hello, Carl Fred.

Well, Mr. Stone.

What brings you out here today?

You plan to give me a
hand with the chores?

(LAUGHINGLY) No, no.

Actually, I'm afraid I have
some unpleasant news for you.

Never knew you to
bring any other kind.

The bank has refused
to make you another loan.

Why?

Well, you know why.

You world's dried up.

You don't stand a chance
to farming without water.

That's why I need the
loan, to dig a well.

Well, there's no
guarantee you'd find water.

I'm sorry.

You make a payment in 48
hours, or we take possession.

Land is nothing to you,
but dollars and cents, is it?

Farming's a
business, Carl Fred.

And if you can't cut
it, then you lose.

Oh, by the way, my
daughter and son-in-law

are looking for a place.

Now you should sell
this place to me

before the bank
takes possession,

and you make yourself $1,000.

$1,000!

This land has been in my
family over 100 years.

Well, it's more than
you'll get two days

from now, which is nothing.

Besides, you got that
grandson of yours to think of.

How are you going
to take care of him

after you lose this place?

I'll give you till noon
tomorrow to think about it.

Good day, Dear Carl Fred.

You buzzards hanging
around here for?

I thought I told
you to hit the road.

Look, Mr. Simms, we're
not looking for a handout.

We're hoping to
find some work here.

You deaf?

You heard me talking
to that loan shark.

I can't pay no wages.

Well, we weren't
asking for any.

Room and board to be enough.

I mean you have to dig
a well, we could help.

Shows what you know.

I dug 10 dry wells in the last
six months on this property.

Came up empty.

How are we going to
find the right spot,

and then dig a hole
by hand in 48 hours?

I'll tell you I've done
my share of divining.

That's a hogwash.

Maybe it is, Mr. Simms, but
at least it's worth a try.

It's a waste of time.

Mr. Simms, you say this
land has been in your family

for 100 years.

Yeah.

It sure has.

What business is it of yours?

Well, I mean you must have kin
buried around here, like maybe

parents, grandparents.

Doesn't seem right to give
that up without a fight.

You seem to know how
folks feel about land.

Like I said, you
remind me of my grandpa.

He had a spread a lot like this.

They tried to take it away from
him too, but he fought for it.

Did he win?

My granddad always said that
winning was for prize fighters.

Life wasn't a game.

It was a journey.

Ended up in the same
place for everybody.

What was important was family
and what you did along the way.

He said that, did he?

Well now, I don't know what
we can get done in two days.

But you're welcome to stay on.

Come on.

I'll show you where
you can sleep.

Mark.

You can't tell him who you are.

He's my granddad.

I want to tell him I love him.

He was your grandfather.

He's that little
boy's grandfather now.

It's up to him to
do the telling.

With this food which we
are about to receive, Oh

Lord, make us truly grateful.

Amen.

Amen.

All right, dig in.

Smells good.

Mark, how was school today?

OK.

Something I want
to talk to you about.

I have a choice to make.

You are part of it.

I have to lay out a mortgage
payment or lose the range.

Now we can hit water
in two days, which

I reckon is near impossible.

I'll make the payment.

I don't know if I'm
going to be able to make

the one after that,
but I'll make this one,

or I can sell out right now,
and pick up 1,000 bucks.

What will happen to me
if you sell this place?

Where will we live?

Take you back to
Oakland, I reckon.

CARL: 1,000 bucks ought
to see us through to get

mortgage back on our feet.

You mean, I could
go back to Oakland.

Mark, you know I wanted to
give this land to your uncle,

but he got killed in Sicily.

A little grave and cross
is the only land he got.

I was kind of hoping
to hang onto it

long enough to give it to you.

To me?

I hate this place.

I just wanna go home.

This hole is just a bunch of
ignorant clodhopper Okies.

They sent me here to punish
me because my mom got sick.

No, that's hogwash.

No, it isn't.

I hate this place.

I hate it.

Mark!

I guess that settles that.

You only fight for something
when it's worth fighting for.

You fellows can help me start
packing up tomorrow morning.

Hi.

How did you know where I was?

Well, like I said, I know
an awful lot about you.

Mark, listen to me.

I know you blame yourself
for your mother getting sick.

You two had a fight,
you got real mad at her.

And you wished she was dead.

Never said that to
anybody, you know.

You just wished for it.

You just thought
about it in your head.

Next day she got sick and
was taken to the hospital.

I never told anyone that.

I know.

It's an awful load for a
little boy to carry around.

Especially when it's not true.

It is true.

I told Carter she was dead.

She got sickened.

Mark.

Your mother didn't get sick
because of anything you wished.

I'll tell you something else.

She's going to get better.

And your dad's
going to come back

from the war safe and sound.

Are you sure?

Yep.

Tell me everything
that's going to happen.

I can't.

All I can tell you,
everything is going to be OK.

I'll tell you, Mark.

I tell you what's important.

Right now, you know your
grandpa loves you an awful lot.

No, he doesn't.

He only cares about
this dumb ranch.

Mark.

I mean you, this
land, this work--

they're just-- they're all
tied up together in his head.

That's the way it is with
adults sometimes, you know.

They work real hard so
that he can have something

to hand down to their grandkids
because they love them so much.

And they love the land so much.

You know, you-- you broke
your granddad's heart tonight.

I know you didn't
mean to, but you did.

Oh, come on.

He's like a rock.

He don't feel bad because
of everything I say.

Why?

Because he didn't cry?

Put on his act?

What act?

Being strong.

You think that no
matter what comes along,

he can handle it, right?

Not true.

He gets scared.

He gets afraid like
everybody else.

He just doesn't let on.

My dad's never scared.

Oh, yes, he is.

Believe me, I know.

Do you know what your
granddad's most scared of?

No.

That the family
will be forgotten.

The roots.

That old man in there,
he's got stories.

He could tell you that'd
just knock your ears off.

How come he never told them?

Because you never
asked to hear them.

That old man is a book, Son.

Our grandparents are.

They're like-- like magic books
that are filled up with who you

are, where you come from, why
your eyes are like grandpa

Jakes, why you've got a temper
just like your great grandpa,

Carl.

And when those old people die,
the books are lost forever.

He needs you, Mark.

He needs something
right now that only one

person in the whole
world can give him.

That's you.

But I don't have anything.

What can I give him?

Your love.

It's your love, Mark.

I'll see you tomorrow.

Well, Carl Fred,
I'm a busy man.

What's your answer?

Granddad.

Tell him the answer
is no, Granddad.

Mark, you're supposed
to be in school.

I was playing hooky.

I saw him drive over the bridge.

Tell the answer's no.

Now see here, little boy,
children should be seen

and not heard.

Cute, real cute.

Granddad, we can bring in
that well, the four of us.

I know we can.

Carl Fred, if you
turn down my offer now,

you'll be throwing away $1,000.

This land has
been my granddad's

family for 100 years.

You can that old $1,000
and go get stuffed.

Tell him to get off
our land, Granddad.

Somebody ought to teach
this boy some manners.

You're absolutely
right, Mr. Stone.

Mark, you've no
right to be telling

Mr. Stone what I should have
the pleasure of telling him.

Get off our land.

Stone heart, stone head!

Get off our land.

You'll regret this, Simms.

Not as much as you'll
regret losing your upper plate

if I don't see your backside
moving toward that empty car.

You really told him, Granddad.

Yeah.

We both told him, huh?

[laughs]

Now are you ready for
me to start divining?

Where?

Start right here.

I told you it was hogwash.

Give me a minute.

Uhh.

Uh-huh.

Hogwash, huh?

Uhh-- Oh yeah.

Look it.

Look at it, Granddad.

Mark!

Get the barn door.

All right.

That's it.

That's the spot.

In the barn.

Well, yeah, in the barn.

I don't pick the spot.

I just follow the wand.

But this ground
looks awful hard.

It sure is.

Maybe we ought to go down to
the bank and take Stone's offer.

[inaudible] is probably
the smart thing to do.

Granddad, is our family
known for being smart?

Well, now I wouldn't
say we were overly brainy.

Nice folks, decent.

But I can't recall
any geniuses offhand.

Well, let's not
do the smart thing.

(LAUGHINGLY)
Mark, I'm beginning

to like you a whole lot.

Come on, boy.

Let's get some tools
and dig us a well.

Hhh-- Time to start
shoring, set up the rig.

Mark?

Yeah.

I was talking to my grandson.

Hey, boy, will you
toss down the canteen?

Right, Granddad.

Here you go.

Thanks.

And check if Jonathan's
got the lumber loaded.

Sure thing.

It's thirsty work.

Yeah, sure it is.

You should take a break.

You've been at it for hours.

Don't you worry about
me, young fella.

I'm used to hard work.

Feel had hand.

Go ahead.

Feel it.

You don't get hands like
that crocheting doilies, huh?

Yeah, sure don't, Granddad.

Don't you go making fun of me.

Oh, it wasn't.

I was-- It's just you remind
me so much of my own granddad.

He must have been
a stubborn ass.

[laughter]

Come on.

Let's get busy
with these boards.

[music playing]

You're not asleep?

You put in a heck of a day.

Oh, no.

Body is tired, but
the head is not.

Still I don't know if I'm
doing the right thing.

I know I--

I got all worked up about it,
but that's just stubborn me.

You've earned the
right to be stubborn.

I'm going to miss that boy.

We're going to hit that water.

You wait and see.

Even if we do, he
isn't going to stay here.

I don't blame him.

He doesn't have the
same feelings as I

do about the land, or about me.

Sure he does.

No.

No.

You really pitched
in today, didn't he?

I was proud of him.

You remind me of--

What's it?

What's wrong?

I don't know.

Push, pushing.

[tv playing]

What's wrong?

It's your granddad.

I'm going for the doctor.

Granddad?

What's wrong with him?

It is his heart, son.

I did it.

No, you didn't, son.

Yes, I did.

Your friend told me
he knew everything.

He said I broke his heart.

I got to make it right.

I got to, I got to.

We're going to hit it, Granddad.

You'll be all right then.

JONATHAN: Mark.

The doctor is with
the grandfather.

You better come home now.

No.

I have to hit water.

I have to.

JONATHAN: You better
come now, son.

No, no, no.

It's here.

It's here, Granddad.

We did it.

We did it.

How's my granddad.

You better go in now.

Granddad?

You got to be all right.

We hit water.

They can't take
our land away now.

Granddad?

He can't hear you, Mark.

He can't hear either one of us.

Mark?

Mark?

Granddad.

Granddad.

Look at you.

I thought I told you to wash up
before you came in the house.

Huh?

I hit water.

They can't take our land away.

(SOBBING) Oh, oh,
what I'd give to see

the look on old Stone's face?

You will, Granddad.

This old boy burnt
his clock out.

There, there now.

Don't cry.

It's going to be all right.

I've had my time.

It was good.

Just think, you're going to go
back to the big city now, huh?

That's what you, isn't it?

(SOBBING) No.

I want to stay with you.

I love you, Granddad.

You do?

I love you more than anything.

What do you know?

I'll be darned.

I love you too, boy.

I know.

I know.

Mark?

Mark?

Jonathan.

I am right here, buddy.

I smell breakfast.

Welcome back.

You know that's the
most remarkable thing

I've ever seen in my life.

You mean how
quick he recovered.

No.

How much he can eat.

Oh, by the way, they brought
your car back in this morning.

It seems it didn't do
much damage after all.

Doc, I can't thank you enough
for everything you've done.

Didn't do a thing.

Beats me the way he
recovered like that.

It's a miracle.

Yeah, something like that.

Bye, ma'am.

How are you doing?

You all right?

A little weak,
otherwise I'm fine.

I'd like to take one last
look at the old place

if you don't mind.

Sure.

Hey, Jonathan.

Stop the car.

Mark?

I thought you were
somebody else.

But you're supposed
to be at school?

What business is it of yours?

None.

None at all.
