Bleed
1
Cotton tail,
he was runnin' free.
I just chased it
around the hillside,
and then I wait for him
down in the mud.
It was a fast rabbit.
Hmm. Fast, but dumb.
Don't know when
to keep it's head down.
So there it is,
rustling around
the leaves, see,
he think, uh,
under the cover
of the brush,
them hawks ain't
gonna see him.
Tickling the grass...
Then, bam!
A bullet
straight to heaven.
Hmm.
Mm, five big ones,
little.
Ruth is my friend.
What'd you say?
You're gonna pay
for your sinnin'.
She told me
she wasn't the first.
First?
She can't tell
you nothin'.
Who been talkin'
them lies?
Your preacher?
Angels.
Get her, boy.
Rabbit's running.
Go ahead now,
there ain't nowhere safe.
Hawk is gonna find you.
Hmm.
Hi, there.
I reckon you ran
up front side of a nail.
Yeah, I think so.
I tried calling
for help, but...
Yeah,
that wouldn't work
when you need it to,
now would it?
No, I guess not.
Well, let me have
a little look,
take a see what
you've got here.
Thank you.
Well, yep.
It's on there.
Yeah, I did my best.
Y'all them folk
what moved up to caperwood.
Yeah, we are.
It's a good old house.
Good old house.
Yeah, it is.
Far cry
from the city, huh?
Yeah, it's beautiful.
Well, along with our
pristine roads,
people say we famous
for our views.
Thank you so much.
-What do I owe you?
-No, ma'am.
No, I could not have
done this myself.
Ah.
You could've.
And you would have too.
Besides, I'd hate to
have to haul you in
for bribing an officer
of the law
before you all
even get settled.
Okay.
Thank you again.
Ma'am, excuse me.
What is that right there?
It's a birthmark.
Good day.
Oh, ma'am?
One thing
being as y'all
ain't from around here,
not all places
fit for visit.
What do you mean?
Well, there's some strange
folk around here.
They made their life
on their own,
god bless them,
and they not
be disturbed, is all.
Wh-- ah!
Hey, babe.
Hey, sweetie.
Where you been?
Oh, don't ask.
Had a little bit
of a disaster.
Hi.
-Mmm.
-I missed you.
Aw. I missed you too.
I blew a tire though,
that's why I'm late.
I'm sorry.
Ah, please tell me
you didn't change it.
No.
but then a local
came by and helped me.
Oh, wow.
He was a little creepy,
he still did it.
Yeah, and I almost
cut off my finger.
You almost cut off
your finger?
Yeah, perils
of house work.
Oh, look at you,
tough guy.
Yeah, watch out.
-Right?
-I like it.
So, uh, what are
you making tonight?
Uh, I was gonna
make something called,
"my husband's making
dinner for me."
Job well done today.
Yeah, thanks.
We're like,
20% done.
I think
we're finally where
we need to be.
This really
feels like home.
-Cheers.
-Cheers.
Ah!

Oh, it's so good
to see you.
Great to see you.
This is Dave.
Hi, Dave.
Sarah.
-Congratulations.
-Thank you so much.
Thank you for coming.
This is my husband.
-Matt.
-How are you doing? Dave.
Yeah, pleasure.
-You...
-I know, I'm huge.
I'm huge.
Come here, come on,
i wanna show you.
Oh my god,
I'm so jealous.
Oh, don't be, please.
It's yours anytime.
You just say the word.
Well, it's actually
the bank's.
- But, lest let
facts get in the way.
And this one too,
of course,
if he plays
his cards right.
Oh, okay.
No pressure.
So... this is where
we're gonna do it.
Uh... do it?
Yeah, that's where
the magic happens.
Yeah, we've already
got the midwife,
and of course,
going to be on-call.
Oh, so you're
giving birth here?
That's the plan,
fingers crossed.
You guys, this is
really wonderful
I'm-- I'm really
excited for you guys.
Thank you.
We're pretty happy.
Okay, I wanna show you
the rest of the house.
Come here.
-Excuse us.
-Thank you.
You, sir?
Thirsty?
Absolutely.
Oh, he's really cute.
My god. Yeah,
yeah, well done.
So, any tips
for a new local?
Oh, uh, soda's fine.
Okay.
Uh, sorry,
tips for a local?
Yeah, Sarah says
you grew up around here.
Oh, more like
50 miles south,
closer to the city.
Oh, yeah, it's a different
world out here.
Yeah, it's interesting.
I hear
you play football.
Used to. Had a ride
back at state,
till I threw
my back out.
Oh, I'm sorry
to hear about that.
-And now?
-Personal trainer.
Play a little touch
on the weekends,
if I'm feeling frisky.
Oh, nice. Yeah,
back trauma's no joke.
And the list
gets scarier with
football players.
Count your blessings.
-Cheers.
-Cheers.
So, how long has it been
since you've seen them, then?
Every other month
or so, maybe.
-I don't know.
-That's great.
That means this medicine's
actually working then.
Yeah, I mean I'm not--
or anything,
if that's what
you're worried about.
No. That is not--
you have never
embarrassed me.
-That's not what
i meant at all.
-I know.
You know,
I've had my own issues
with seeing things.
I know, I know.
It's just-- it's just weird.
You live with these people
since you're a kid,
and then,
and tells you
that they're not real.
That it doesn't exist,
and to take
this medicine,
and it's gonna make
you all better.
And... and then
everyone's gone.
I'm not gone.
I'm not going anywhere.
Matt's not going anywhere.
I mean, that guy--
Good, I'm really looking
forward to getting to know--
no f***ing way.
Whoo! Nice digs!
This place is sick.
Hey.
What the hell,
stranger?
Ah, you know,
and what kind of
uncle would I be
if I didn't
show up?
Hi.
I did invite you.
That was about five
months ago though,
and you were
supposed to rsvp.
Well, if rsvp means show up
with dirty laundry,
then we did just that.
-That's exactly
what it means.
-Yeah.
Hey, I want you to meet
the Pearl of my life.
This is Skye. Skye,
this is my sister, Sarah.
-Hey, god you are gorgeous.
-Oh, thank you.
Dude, thank you
for letting us crash.
-So cool of you.
-You are so welcome.
And this right here
All grown up.
Hey, it looks like
you've come a long way.
Hi, thank you very much.
Yeah, that is ours
right there.
-We love her. Don't we?
-Mm-hmm.
You own it, huh?
Is that doctor Matt
over there?
Hey, we're gonna go
get cleaned up
real quick,
all right?
What's for lunch, bud?
You don't have to worry
about embarrassing me now,
because my brother's here.
Hi.
Hey, hey--
white wine?
Oh, no,
this is apple juice.
I just like to pretend.
Oh, rad.
What kind of clothes?
Uh, casual work wear,
that's what
i call it anyway.
It's like, light wools
and stitched patterns.
-Cool. Like um, this?
-Yeah, like this, actually.
Nice, I like it.
So, you really think
Bro, would you enjoy
the true freedom

Yeah, it's a good
little clinic.
Only about
20 intakes a day.
