You were my family.

The Bureau was my family.

I trusted you. You used me.

You betrayed me. I betrayed...

I don't have a family any more.

- I don't have anything. I got too dirty.

- We won, for Chrissake!

- You won.

- Catherine, where are you gonna go?

Just away.

Cathy, there ain't no going away.

- RACHEL:
I'm gonna miss you.

- I love you.

- A whole big bunch?

- A whole big bunch.

- Hi, Catherine.

- Hey, Shirley.

About the time my daddy left

to fight the big war

I saw my first pistol

in the general store

The general store

When I was thirteen

- Buy you a beer, girl?

- No, thanks.

So I asked if I could have one

someday when I grew up

Mama dropped a dozen eggs,

she really blew up

Yes, she really blew up

She didn't understand

And Mama said the pistol

is the devil's right hand

The devil's right hand,

the devil's right hand

(DOG BARKS)

Rachel?

Joey?

RACHEL:
I thought

you were never coming back.

I care about you, Rachel.

Katie! Katie!

Rachel.

- Hi, Rachel.

- They say your name is Cathy.

- It is.

- Well, I like Cathy better anyway.

- I thought you were never coming back.

- I care about you, Rachel.

Get out of here, Jezebel.

This is the house of God.

This is America, Reverend.

She can do anything she wants.

Rachel, come here.

- If you need me, I'll always be here.

- Me too.

- A whole big bunch?

- A whole big bunch.

- Rachel!

- You go now.

Rachel, give me your hand.

In the general store

When I was thirteen, I thought

it was the finest thing I ever had seen

So I asked if I could have one

someday when I grew up

Mama dropped a dozen eggs,

she really blew up

Yes, she really blew up

She didn't understand

And Mama said the pistol

is the devil's right hand

The devil's right hand,

the devil's right hand

Mama said the pistol

is the devil's right hand
