Coeur d’Alene Indian reservation – Idaho, 1976
[ Randy ]
Good morning. This is Randy Peone on KREZ radio, the voice of the Coeur d’Alene Indian reservation, and it’s time for the morning traffic report on this rainy bicentennial fourth of July. Let’s go out to Lester Fallsapart in the KREZ traffic van, broken down at the crossroads.
[Lester Fallsapart]
Big truck just went by.
Now it’s gone.
[ Randy ]
Well, there you go, folks. Looks like another busy morning. And I just got a news bulletin that says Matty and John builds-the-fire. are hosting a fourth of July party at their house.
And remember, it’s B.Y.O.F.:”bring your own fireworks.”
[ Thomas narrating ]
On the fourth of July, 1976, my mother and father celebrated
white people’s independence…by holding the largest house party In Coeur dÆAlene
tribal history. I mean, every Indian
in the world was there. And then at 3:00 in the mornin’, after everyone had passed out
or fallen asleep on couches, on chairs, on beds, on the floor, a fire Rose up like
general George Armstrong Custer, and swallowed up my mother and father.
I don’t remember that fire. I only have the stories. And in every one of those
stories, I could fly.
[ Indian voices chanting ]
I was just a baby when Arnold Joseph saved me from that fire and delivered me into
the hands of my grandmother.
[Thomas’ Grandmother]
Arnold ! What happened ? What happened ?
[ baby crying ]
[ hands baby to her ]
[ screaming ]
[Thomas]
And Victor Joseph was just a baby too, when his father
saved me from that fire.
You know, there are some children who aren’t really children at all.
They’re just pillars of flame that burn everything they touch.
And there are some children who are just pillars of ash that fall apart
if you touch ’em.
Me and Victor, we were children born of flame and ash.
[ baby crying ]
[Thomas’ Grandmother]
Arlene, Your son’s name is Victor, enit?–
[Arlene]
Yes, it is.
[Thomas’ Grandmother] it’s a good name. It means
he’s gonna win, enit ?
[Arlene]
I don’t know.
[Thomas’ Grandmother]
You saved my grandson’s life.
[Arnold]
Well, it was nothin’. I–
I didn’t even think about it.
I just–
[Thomas’ Grandmother]
You saved Thomas. You did a good thing.
[Arnold]
I didn’t mean to.

00:04:21,593 –> 00:04:23,778
[ Thomas narrating ]
after that fire,
59
00:04:23,846 –> 00:04:27,448
Arnold Joseph mourned
by cuttin’ his hair,
60
00:04:27,515 –> 00:04:30,702
And he never
grew it long again.
61
00:04:30,769 –> 00:04:34,205
For years after that
he threatened to vanish.
62
00:04:34,273 –> 00:04:36,958
He practiced vanishing.
63
00:04:37,025 –> 00:04:41,362
Until one day, he jumped
into his yellow pickup…
64
00:04:41,430 –> 00:04:42,930
And did vanish.

Indian reservation.
67
00:04:53,192 –> 00:04:56,444
And Coeur dÆAlene people,
our reservation
is beautiful this morning.
68
00:04:56,512 –> 00:04:58,446
It’s a good day
to be indigenous.
69
00:04:58,514 –> 00:05:00,631
It’s 45 degrees

It’s 8:00 A.M., Indian time,

And it’s time for
the morning traffic report.
72
00:05:06,822 –> 00:05:09,890
For that let’s go
to Lester Fallsapart
at the KREZ traffic van,
73
00:05:09,958 –> 00:05:13,627
Broken down at
the crossroads since 1972.
74
00:05:13,695 –> 00:05:17,214
So Lester, how’s traffic
out there this fine morning ?
75
00:05:17,282 –> 00:05:19,584
A couple of cars
went by earlier.
76
00:05:19,651 –> 00:05:23,471
You know old Mrs. Joe ?
She was speeding.
77
00:05:24,973 –> 00:05:27,241
And, uh,
Kimmy and James, uh,
78
00:05:27,309 –> 00:05:30,294
They went by in a yellow car
and they were arguin’.
79
00:05:33,882 –> 00:05:37,235
Ain’t no traffic really.
[ Randy ]
there you go, folks.
80
00:05:37,686 –> 00:05:40,088
Looks like nobody’s
getting to work
on time this morning.
81
00:05:40,155 –> 00:05:42,590
As for you school kids,
you’d better hurry up
and eat those wheaties,
82
00:05:42,658 –> 00:05:44,892
Because the first bell
rang 15 minutes ago.

Thomas, I don’t know

No, really, Victor.

I mean, did you know
things burn in colors ?
104
00:07:00,402 –> 00:07:02,503
I mean,
sodium burns yellow…
105

And carbon burns orange,
just like that.

in Phoenix, Arizona, now.

Is that so, Thomas ?
109
00:07:16,435 –> 00:07:18,836
You know,
I was wondering, Thomas.
110
00:07:18,904 –> 00:07:22,406
What color do you think
your mom and dad were
when they burned up ?
111
00:07:26,361 –> 00:07:28,595
You know,
your dad ain’t comin’ back.

Yes, he is.
No.

That’s easy:
Geronimo.

It’s Geronimo, man.
He was lean, mean
and bloody.

He would’ve dunked
on your flat Indian ass

00:14:08,613 –> 00:14:10,730
He wasn’t
always mean.
215
00:14:22,844 –> 00:14:25,278
You know, Thomas said
he’ll give me the money,
216
00:14:25,346 –> 00:14:27,781
But he wants
to go with me.
217
00:14:31,035 –> 00:14:34,888
You know, people always told me
I make the best fry bread
in the world.
218
00:14:34,956 –> 00:14:38,125
Maybe it’s true.
219
00:14:38,193 –> 00:14:40,827
But I don’t make it
by myself, you know.
220
00:14:42,414 –> 00:14:44,464
I got the recipe
from your grandmother,
221
00:14:44,532 –> 00:14:47,435
And she got it
from her grandmother.
222
00:14:47,502 –> 00:14:50,404
And I listen to people
when they eat my bread.
223
00:14:50,355 –> 00:14:54,391
You know, they might say,
uh, “Arlene,
224
00:14:54,459 –> 00:14:56,843
There’s too much flour.”
225
00:14:56,911 –> 00:14:59,747
Or, “Arlene,
226
00:14:59,814 –> 00:15:01,949
You should knead
your dough some more.”
227
00:15:02,017 –> 00:15:03,950
I listen to them.
228
00:15:04,018 –> 00:15:07,387
And I watch that
Julia Child all the time.
229
00:15:08,489 –> 00:15:12,092
She’s a good cook too,
but she gets lots of help.
230
00:15:15,614 –> 00:15:18,582
So, do you think
I should go with Thomas ?
231
00:15:18,650 –> 00:15:21,452
That’s your decision.
232
00:15:21,519 –> 00:15:25,105
But if you go, I want you
to promise me you’ll come back.
233
00:15:25,056 –> 00:15:28,341
– Come on, mom.
– Promise me !
234
00:15:28,409 –> 00:15:33,297
[ chuckles ]
geez. Want me to sign
a paper or somethin’ ?
235
00:15:33,365 –> 00:15:37,802
No way. You know how Indians
feel about signing papers.

okay, Thomas, I need the money,
and you can come with me,
239
00:16:10,368 –> 00:16:12,436
<i>But I have a few rules.</i>
240
00:16:12,504 –> 00:16:16,023
<i>First of all, you can’t</i>
<i>wear that stupid suit.</i>
241
00:16:18,093 –> 00:16:22,329
And secondly, I don’t want
you tellin’ me a million
of your damn stories.
242
00:16:22,396 –> 00:16:26,066
And third,
we’re goin’ right there
and comin’ right back.
243
00:16:26,134 –> 00:16:29,786
Good morning. This is
Randy Peone on KREZ radio,
244
00:16:29,854 –> 00:16:32,673
And I just got a news
bulletin here that says…
245
00:16:32,741 –> 00:16:36,126
Frenchy Sidejohn won $5,000
last night playing bingo.
246
00:16:36,194 –> 00:16:38,145
I want to congratulate
Frenchy,
247
00:16:38,212 –> 00:16:41,848
And all those used car dealers
in Spokane are eagerly
awaiting your arrival.
248
00:16:41,933 –> 00:16:46,587
It’s 7:35 A.M., Indian time,
and time for the weather report.

00:16:46,655 –> 00:16:50,123
<i>Lester here.</i>
<i>One of the clouds up there</i>

looks like, uh–

00:16:52,027 –> 00:16:54,995
You know that, um, tavern
we used to go, the log one ?
252
00:16:55,447 –> 00:16:59,099
And that waitress there ?
<i>Hola.</i> Looks like her.
253
00:16:59,167 –> 00:17:01,401
[ Randy ]

From tribal meteorologist

And I just received a request
from Irvin in Desmet.
256
00:17:07,209 –> 00:17:09,142

a sad song.

– You bet.
– What are you gonna

281
00:18:21,716 –> 00:18:25,686
We’re Indians, remember ?
We barter.
282
00:18:25,753 –> 00:18:28,672
A story.
Better be good.

[ clears throat,

285
00:18:35,580 –> 00:18:40,183
Durin’ the ’60s, Arnold Joseph
was the perfect hippie…
286
00:18:40,251 –> 00:18:43,270
Because all the hippies were
tryin’ to be Indians anyway.
287
00:18:43,338 –> 00:18:46,523
<i>But because of that,</i>
<i>he was always wonderin'</i>
<i>how anybody would know…</i>
288
00:18:46,591 –> 00:18:49,810
<i>When an Indian was tryin'</i>
<i>to make a social statement.</i>
289
00:18:49,877 –> 00:18:51,812
But there’s proof,
you know.
290
00:18:51,879 –> 00:18:55,298
Back durin’ the Vietnam war,
he was demonstratin’ against it,
291
00:18:55,366 –> 00:18:57,434
And there was this
photographer there.
292
00:18:57,502 –> 00:19:01,372
He took a picture of Arnold
that day, and it made it
onto the wire services…
293
00:19:01,439 –> 00:19:05,459
<i>And was reprinted</i>
<i>in newspapers</i>
<i>throughout the country.</i>
294
00:19:05,527 –> 00:19:09,129
It even made it to the cover
of <i>time</i> magazine.
295
00:19:09,197 –> 00:19:13,433
In that photograph,
Arnold is wearin’ bell-bottoms
and a flowered shirt,
296
00:19:13,501 –> 00:19:15,953
His hair in braids,
with red peace symbols…
297
00:19:16,020 –> 00:19:19,005
Splashed across his face
like war paint.
298
00:19:19,073 –> 00:19:22,392
He holds a rifle above his head,
captured in that moment…
299
00:19:22,460 –> 00:19:25,446
Just before he proceeded
to beat the shit out of…

lyin’ on the ground beneath him.

<i>Another demonstrator holds</i>
<i>a sign, just barely visible</i>
<i>over his left shoulder.</i>

“make love, not war.”
303
00:19:36,958 –> 00:19:39,893
Geez. Did your dad
really do that ?
304
00:19:39,961 –> 00:19:41,895

so full of shit.

[ Lucy ]
oh, then what happened ?
306
00:19:43,965 –> 00:19:46,750
Arnold got arrested, you know.
But he got lucky.
307
00:19:47,285 –> 00:19:49,553
<i>At first they charged him</i>
<i>with attempted murder,</i>
308
00:19:50,005 –> 00:19:52,739
But then they plea-bargained
that down to assault
with a deadly weapon.
309
00:19:52,807 –> 00:19:57,427
And then they plea-bargained
that down to bein’ an Indian
in the twentieth century.
310
00:19:57,495 –> 00:20:00,480
Then he got two years
in walla walla.

Well,

I don’t mean to brag,

But I was every bit
as good as Mary Lou.
358
00:24:03,208 –> 00:24:05,308
In 1984 I tried out again…
359
00:24:05,376 –> 00:24:07,661
And Mary Lou
beat me that time,
360
00:24:07,728 –> 00:24:09,963
But I had grown,
you know ?
361
00:24:10,030 –> 00:24:14,918
Oh ! Those little people !
They get all the attention.
362
00:24:14,986 –> 00:24:19,172
Me ? I put my whole life
into makin’ the Olympics,

00:24:19,240 –> 00:24:22,592
Then Jimmy Carter
took it away.

Geez. You gymnasts got
a lot in common with
us Indians then, ain’t it ?

Hey. Hi.

You said you were an alternate

Yeah.
Well,
368
00:24:35,706 –> 00:24:37,991
If you were an alternate,
then you’d only compete…
369
00:24:38,059 –> 00:24:40,193
If somebody was hurt
or something, right ?
370
00:24:40,261 –> 00:24:43,813
– Yeah.
– Was anybody hurt ?
371
00:24:45,633 –> 00:24:49,018
No.
Then you really weren’t
on the team, were you ?
372
00:24:49,086 –> 00:24:51,571
I mean, it didn’t really matter
if there was a boycott or not.
373
00:24:51,639 –> 00:24:54,240
You were
stayin’ home anyways.
374
00:24:55,743 –> 00:24:57,777
You ain’t got nothin’
to complain about,
375
00:24:57,845 –> 00:25:00,414
So why don’t
you just be quiet ?
376
00:25:12,176 –> 00:25:14,811
What’d you do that for ?
She was nice.
377
00:25:14,879 –> 00:25:17,047
Nice, my ass.
She was a liar.
378
00:25:16,998 –> 00:25:20,817
No, she wasn’t.
Yes, she was.
Think about it, Thomas.
379
00:25:20,885 –> 00:25:23,669
What would a big shot
Olympic gymnast
be doing on a bus ?
380
00:25:23,737 –> 00:25:27,457
Answer me that,
Thomas.
I don’t know.
381
00:25:27,524 –> 00:25:29,659
You know, Thomas,
you really need to grow up.
382
00:25:29,727 –> 00:25:31,828
Don’t you know anything ?
People are awful.
383
00:25:31,896 –> 00:25:34,431
They’ll rob you blind
if you ain’t watching.
384
00:25:34,382 –> 00:25:37,601
Where’s your piggy bank ?
You still got your
piggy bank ?
385
00:25:37,668 –> 00:25:39,970
Yeah.
386
00:25:40,037 –> 00:25:43,523
Just remember, Thomas:
You can’t trust anybody.

Who’s your

What’d you say,
Victor ?
404
00:27:11,862 –> 00:27:13,497
Speak up, boy.

00:27:13,564 –> 00:27:16,916
Who’s your

406
00:27:16,984 –> 00:27:19,519

Huh ?

Did you say
“nobody” ?

He didn’t mean it.
Come on, tell him, Victor.

00:27:28,946 –> 00:27:31,448
Tell your daddy

[ Thomas ]
you know, your dad
took me to Denny’s once.
419
00:28:06,550 –> 00:28:09,452
Thomas, I’ve heard this story
a thousand times, okay ?
420
00:28:11,722 –> 00:28:14,124
Yeah, it was
the Summer he left.
421
00:28:14,191 –> 00:28:17,410
We were 12, ain’t it ?
I had this dream, you know ?
422
00:28:17,478 –> 00:28:22,215
And this dream told me
to go to Spokane
to stand by the falls.
423
00:28:22,282 –> 00:28:24,634
You know, those ones
by the Y.M.C.A.
424
00:28:24,702 –> 00:28:27,203
So I walked there.
425
00:28:27,271 –> 00:28:31,108
I mean,
I didn’t have no car,
I didn’t have no license.
426
00:28:31,175 –> 00:28:33,676
I was 12 years old.
427
00:28:33,744 –> 00:28:36,613
It took me all day,
but I walked there…
428
00:28:36,564 –> 00:28:39,766
And I stood on that bridge
over the falls,
429
00:28:39,834 –> 00:28:42,334
Waitin’ for a sign.
430
00:28:45,356 –> 00:28:48,608
I must’ve been waitin’ there
for a couple hours.
431
00:28:49,993 –> 00:28:53,046
But I just
watched the water.
432
00:28:53,114 –> 00:28:56,683
It was beautiful.
433
00:28:56,751 –> 00:29:00,270
I kept hopin’ I’d see some
salmon, but there ain’t any
salmon in that River no more.
434
00:29:07,394 –> 00:29:09,729
And then
I heard this voice.
435
00:29:09,797 –> 00:29:12,265
“hey, what the hell
you doin’ here ?”
436
00:29:12,332 –> 00:29:16,336
It was your dad,
yellin’ at me.
437
00:29:16,403 –> 00:29:18,505
And he
keeps on yellin’.
438
00:29:18,572 –> 00:29:22,742
“I asked you what the hell
you’re doin’ here.”
439
00:29:22,809 –> 00:29:26,880
So I told him I was
waitin’ for a vision,
440
00:29:26,947 –> 00:29:29,799
And he just laughed.
441
00:29:29,867 –> 00:29:33,052
He said, “all you’re gonna
get around here is mugged.”
442
00:29:33,120 –> 00:29:35,988
[ laughing ]
443
00:29:37,991 –> 00:29:40,393
So then he took me
to Denny’s.
444
00:29:40,211 –> 00:29:42,695
It was afternoon,
you know,
445
00:29:42,763 –> 00:29:45,181
But I still had
the grand slam breakfast.
446
00:29:45,249 –> 00:29:48,418
Two eggs, two sausages,
447
00:29:48,485 –> 00:29:50,420
Two slices of bacon…
448
00:29:50,488 –> 00:29:53,673
And two pancakes.
449
00:29:53,741 –> 00:29:57,360
And some juice,
and milk.
450
00:29:58,762 –> 00:30:03,166
You know, sometimes
it’s a good day to die,
451
00:30:03,234 –> 00:30:06,586
Sometimes it’s a good day
to have breakfast.

remember about your dad ?

You know, Thomas,
I don’t know what you’re
talkin’ about half the time.

Why is that ?
I don’t know.

Why can’t you have
a normal conversation ?

You’re always tryin’
to sound like some damn
medicine man or something.

I mean, how many times have
you seen <i>dances with wolves ?</i>

Aw, geez.

You have seen it
that many times, haven’t you ?

00:35:26,023 –> 00:35:30,025
Don’t you even know
how to be a real Indian ?
I guess not.

Well, shit.
No wonder. Geez.
516
00:35:32,095 –> 00:35:35,248
I guess I’ll have to
teach you then, ain’t it ?
517
00:35:36,500 –> 00:35:39,435
First of all,
quit grinnin’ like an idiot.

to smile like that.
Get stoic.

No. Like this.
520
00:35:57,187 –> 00:36:01,674
You gotta look mean,
or people won’t respect you.
521
00:36:01,742 –> 00:36:05,711
White people will
run all over you
if you don’t look mean.
522
00:36:05,779 –> 00:36:07,713
You gotta look
like a warrior.
523
00:36:07,781 –> 00:36:11,801
You gotta look like
you just came back
from killing a buffalo.
524
00:36:11,869 –> 00:36:15,371
But our tribe never
hunted buffalo.
We were fishermen.
What ?
525
00:36:15,439 –> 00:36:18,958
You wanna look like
you just came back
from catching a fish ?

This ain’t
dances with salmon, you know.

There.
That’s better.
529
00:36:30,803 –> 00:36:33,522
And second, you gotta
know how to use your hair.

00:36:33,590 –> 00:36:35,525
My hair ?
Yeah.
531
00:36:35,592 –> 00:36:39,045
I mean, look at your hair.
It’s all braided up and stuff.
You gotta free it.

These Jesuits had on
their white collars
and their black robes,

And they were
pretty damn good.

By the way they were playing,

I could’ve swore they had
seven out of twelve
apostles on their side.

Because every time
I tried to shoot the ball,

There was a Storm of locusts

in his eye, and he was mean.

887
01:00:20,783 –> 01:00:24,903
He wished he hadn’t run away.
But you have to remember
one thing, Victor.
888
01:00:24,970 –> 01:00:28,622
He ran back into
that burning house
looking for you.
889
01:00:30,026 –> 01:00:33,111
He went back for you.
890
01:00:34,829 –> 01:00:36,997
He didn’t mean
to die here, Victor.
891
01:00:38,984 –> 01:00:41,302
He wanted to go home.
892
01:00:41,369 –> 01:00:43,371
He always wanted
to go home.
893
01:00:47,809 –> 01:00:49,810
He’s waiting for you,
Victor.
894
01:00:53,049 –> 01:00:54,682
He’s waiting for you.
895
01:03:06,649 –> 01:03:08,683
[ Thomas narrating ]
after Victor butchered his hair,
896
01:03:08,751 –> 01:03:11,185
He thought
the ceremony was over,
897
01:03:11,252 –> 01:03:14,088
So he tore me from sleep
at sunrise,
898
01:03:14,156 –> 01:03:17,958
And we left Phoenix
without tellin’ Suzy good-bye.
899
01:03:18,026 –> 01:03:20,211
I thought we were leavin’
in a bad way,
900
01:03:20,278 –> 01:03:23,347
But Victor
didn’t seem to care a bit.
901
01:03:23,415 –> 01:03:26,917
He just drove all day
and didn’t say a word to me,
902
01:03:26,752 –> 01:03:29,554
Even though I told him
a thousand stories…
903
01:03:29,622 –> 01:03:31,622
About Suzy and drought,
904
01:03:31,690 –> 01:03:34,325
About his mother and hunger,
905
01:03:34,393 –> 01:03:37,378
About his father and magic.
906
01:03:37,446 –> 01:03:39,380
And then I told Victor,
907
01:03:39,448 –> 01:03:43,133
I thought we were all travelin’
heavy with illusions.
908
01:03:43,201 –> 01:03:47,371
[ Thomas ]
I remember so much
about your dad.
909
01:03:48,323 –> 01:03:52,660
I remember when he took me
for breakfast at Denny’s.
910
01:03:52,727 –> 01:03:55,663
Your dad was goin’
on and on about you.
911
01:03:55,731 –> 01:03:58,883
He said you were so good
at basketball.
912
01:03:58,950 –> 01:04:04,371
But he also said
basketball was the only thing
you were ever gonna be good at.
913
01:04:06,258 –> 01:04:09,660
You know, Thomas,
I’m really sick and tired
of you tellin’ me…
914
01:04:09,728 –> 01:04:13,114
All these stories
about my dad
like you knew him.
915
01:04:13,182 –> 01:04:14,915
But I did know him.
916
01:04:14,983 –> 01:04:17,034
What do you know
about him, Thomas ?
917
01:04:17,102 –> 01:04:20,187
Did you know he’s a drunk ?
Did you know
that he left my family ?
918
01:04:20,255 –> 01:04:23,658
Did you know
he beat up my mom ?
Did you know he beat me up ?
919
01:04:23,726 –> 01:04:26,511
Just let it go, Thomas !
He was nothing but a liar.
920
01:04:26,578 –> 01:04:31,399
No, your dad
was more than that.
What was he then, Thomas ?
921
01:04:31,466 –> 01:04:35,636
You tell me.
You’re the expert.
What do you think he was ?
922
01:04:35,704 –> 01:04:39,140
You know,
you got it all wrong, Victor.
923
01:04:39,207 –> 01:04:41,008
Maybe you don’t know
who <i>you</i> are !
924
01:04:40,960 –> 01:04:44,912
I don’t know what the hell
you’re talkin’ about.
I think you do.
925
01:04:44,980 –> 01:04:47,648
You’ve been mopin’ around
the reservation for ten years.
926
01:04:47,716 –> 01:04:51,586
Ten years, Victor !
Doin’ what ?
927
01:04:51,653 –> 01:04:55,139
You ain’t got no job !
You ain’t got no money !
You ain’t got nothin’ !
928
01:04:55,090 –> 01:04:57,358
Yeah, and what do you got,
huh, Thomas ?
What do you do all day long ?
929
01:04:57,426 –> 01:05:00,461
I look after my grandma.
Yeah, and I look after
my mom.
930
01:05:00,529 –> 01:05:03,447
You make your mom cry.
Shut up, Thomas !
931
01:05:03,515 –> 01:05:07,235
You make your mom
cry her eyes out !
932
01:05:07,302 –> 01:05:11,322
I mean, your dad left her, sure,
but you left her too.
933
01:05:11,389 –> 01:05:14,525
And you’re worse
’cause you still live
in the same house with her !
934
01:05:14,592 –> 01:05:16,944
Shut up, Thomas !
Just shut up !
935
01:05:17,145 –> 01:05:19,346
He saved your dumb ass
in that fire !
He didn’t save me !
936
01:05:19,414 –> 01:05:22,182
He never saved me !
Quit feelin’ sorry
for yourself.
937
01:05:22,250 –> 01:05:24,735
I wish he would have let you
burn in that fire,
you know ?
938
01:05:24,803 –> 01:05:27,404
Then he wouldn’t have
left me.
939
01:05:27,472 –> 01:05:30,557
He was always leavin’,
Victor !
940
01:05:30,625 –> 01:05:34,345
Everything burned up,
Thomas, everything !
Everything burned up !

Burt !
[ man ]
get in the car, Penny !
946
01:06:02,524 –> 01:06:06,361
I’m so– I’m so sorry.
He was drunk, and he was
driving so fast.
947
01:06:06,428 –> 01:06:08,378
I told him to slow down.
I’m so sorry.
All right, get back in the car.
948

Get in the car !
Stay in the car !

It’s your fault, man.
You hit my car, man.

You’re drunk !
Take it easy !
Get out of my face !

he hadn’t run away.

But you have to remember
one thing, Victor.

He ran back
into that burning house
looking for you !

You’re the one who got us

in a dozen car wrecks.

Old Lester Fallsapart
has been in a car wreck
every year of his life.

You and me,
we just had one car wreck.

in two wrecks last night.

Well, if it isn’t

How ya doin’ ?

Oh, my feet hurt.
How’s she ?

Julie’s gonna be okay.

You guys are heroes,
you know ?
988
01:09:51,669 –> 01:09:54,255
It’s like you’re
the Lone Ranger and Tonto.
989
01:09:54,322 –> 01:09:58,159
No, it’s more like
we’re Tonto and Tonto.
990
01:10:01,730 –> 01:10:05,132
I mean, the police
were just here. That Burt Guy
said the wreck was your fault.
991
01:10:05,200 –> 01:10:08,536
– No way.
– He said you were tryin’
to kill him.
992
01:10:08,603 –> 01:10:10,771
He’s a goddamn liar.
I know.
993
01:10:10,839 –> 01:10:14,458
That’s what I told the police.
I don’t think they believed me.
994
01:10:14,526 –> 01:10:17,995
Well, geez, we probably
should get out of town then,
ain’t it, Victor ?
995
01:10:18,062 –> 01:10:21,131
– Yeah.
– Yeah.
996
01:10:31,075 –> 01:10:33,910
Uh-oh.
997
01:10:36,681 –> 01:10:40,334
Well, it looks like you boys
got yourself into
some serious trouble here.
998
01:10:40,402 –> 01:10:43,570
You’ve been accused
of assault with a deadly weapon.
999
01:10:43,238 –> 01:10:45,505
That’s bullshit.

<i>Yes.</i>

01:10:50,829 –> 01:10:54,915
Well, that kind of language
isn’t necessary, Victor.
1003
01:10:54,983 –> 01:10:57,201
We didn’t do
anything wrong.
1004
01:10:57,269 –> 01:10:59,002
You didn’t do
anything wrong.
1005
01:10:59,070 –> 01:11:02,339
Well, I have
this complaint…
1006
01:11:02,407 –> 01:11:06,844
Signed by a Mr. Burt Cicero.
1007
01:11:06,428 –> 01:11:09,496
And Mr. Cicero alleges…
1008
01:11:09,564 –> 01:11:14,852
That Mr. Joseph assaulted him
soon after the accident…
1009
01:11:14,920 –> 01:11:17,120
And that you were drunk.
1010
01:11:17,188 –> 01:11:20,207
Is that true ?
<i>I don’t drink.</i>
1011
01:11:20,275 –> 01:11:22,709
I never had
a drop of alcohol
in my life, officer.
1012
01:11:22,777 –> 01:11:25,595
<i>Not one drop.</i>

are you, exactly ?

Well, Mr. Builds-the-fire,
1017
01:11:49,321 –> 01:11:52,973
What do you think
about all these charges ?
1018
01:11:53,008 –> 01:11:54,591
We was framed.
1019
01:11:54,659 –> 01:11:56,760
Framed ? Well–
1020
01:11:56,828 –> 01:11:58,362
Hmm.
1021
01:11:58,430 –> 01:12:04,151
We do have another statement
here by a Mrs. Penny Cicero.
1022
01:12:04,219 –> 01:12:07,420
It says here
that her husband is–
1023
01:12:07,488 –> 01:12:11,442
And I quote–
“a complete asshole.”
1024
01:12:13,362 –> 01:12:17,782
I’d say Mr. Cicero doesn’t have
much of a case here against you.
1025
01:12:17,849 –> 01:12:22,085
However, I do have
one problem here. Uh–
1026
01:12:22,153 –> 01:12:26,156
Now, I know
that this…
1027
01:12:26,224 –> 01:12:28,258
Is a basketball.
1028
01:12:28,576 –> 01:12:30,577

1029
01:12:32,830 –> 01:12:37,234
Very curious
about this.

01:12:39,337 –> 01:12:41,321
That’s my father.

Yeah, I’m sure.

Victor, I’m gonna travel
to Spokane for one last time…

And toss these ashes

What ?

Well, I was thinkin’ about
doin’ the same thing myself,

But I never
thought of my father
as a salmon.

I mean, I thought it would
be just like cleaning out
the attic, you know ?

Like throwin’ things away
when they have no more use.

[ Thomas narrating ]
how do we forgive our fathers ?

Maybe in a dream.
1104
01:21:16,871 –> 01:21:20,156
Do we forgive our fathers
for leavin’ us too often…
1105
01:21:20,241 –> 01:21:23,109
Or forever
when we were little ?
1106
01:21:23,177 –> 01:21:27,013
Maybe for scarin’ us
with unexpected rage ?
1107
01:21:27,081 –> 01:21:32,969
Or makin’ us nervous
because there never seemed to be
any rage there at all ?
1108
01:21:33,037 –> 01:21:35,689
Do we forgive our fathers
for marryin’…
1109
01:21:35,757 –> 01:21:38,591
Or not marryin’ our mothers ?
1110
01:21:38,676 –> 01:21:43,647
For divorcin’
or not divorcin’ our mothers ?
1111
01:21:43,714 –> 01:21:47,166
And shall we forgive them
for their excesses of warmth…
1112
01:21:47,234 –> 01:21:49,686
Or coldness ?
1113
01:21:49,753 –> 01:21:53,890
Shall we forgive them
for pushin’ or leanin’ ?
1114
01:21:53,958 –> 01:21:55,993
For shuttin’ doors ?
1115
01:21:56,060 –> 01:21:58,211
For speakin’ through walls…
1116
01:21:58,162 –> 01:22:00,430
Or never speakin’ ?
1117
01:22:00,497 –> 01:22:02,999
Or never being silent ?
1118
01:22:44,775 –> 01:22:47,627
Do we forgive our fathers
in our age…
1119
01:22:47,694 –> 01:22:50,062
Or in theirs ?
1120
01:22:50,130 –> 01:22:54,134
Or in their deaths,
saying it to them ?
1121
01:22:54,201 –> 01:22:56,920
Or not saying it ?
1122
01:22:56,987 –> 01:22:59,789
If we forgive our fathers,
1123
01:22:59,857 –> 01:23:01,858
What is left ?
