A**hole.

F*** it.

CLIVE:

Hey!

What the hell you doing?

Get off me.

[GRUNTING]

God, stop. I'm sorry. I'm sorry.

You ain't sorry, you're scared.

You have every right to be.

God shaped all of us the way we are.

All of us.

You bastard.

You f*** with my brother,

I'll f*** with you.

You wanna look at that picture?

Come on now, I know you do.

It's here somewhere. Here it is.

Here. Come on,

have a look.

Come on, Kenny, grab it.

Come on, now.

Grab it.

Damn.

We're really gonna live here?

Yes, sir. Sent the check last week.

When I get there,

I'm gonna get myself a job.

Mechanic or something.

Look after you the way I did

before the accident.

Mm. Yes, sir.

Man, I used to love riding

behind you on that motorcycle.

Should've never

let you drive that night.

Wasn't my fault, Tommy.

It was the truck's fault.

That's gotta be it.

Road to Canada.

Canada?

Cellie told me about it.

KENNY:
Yeah, Tommy, I'm

starting to get scared, so...

TOMMY:

It's okay, just relax.

Tommy, this doesn't seem right. Can

we go back to the border crossing...?

It's okay. It's fine.

No, it's not okay.

It's not okay at all.

Hush, Kenny,

and I mean right now.

Doesn't look right, Tommy.

It's okay. Just relax.

Tommy, we're right back

where we started.

What are you talking about?

No, we're not.

You see that license plate

back there, what did it say?

What did it say? Ontario.

Ontario, Canada. We here, boy.

We're in Canada.

They're nice here.

Nicer than where we came from.

So, guys, your dad

is taking the deal with Conpine,

and he'll be home in two weeks.

Home?

Your dad and I are gonna

give it another try.

What?

Why?

CHUCK:
Hey, guys, you all set?

MIKEY:
So are we still going

camping up to Finger Point?

Are you packed up?

Just gotta get my gear in the truck.

Jen, you packed?

What?

No, I'm going out

with friends tonight.

You're not going outwith friends.

You can try this tough thing

if you really want to,

but you can't stop me.

MARIA:

You are not going out tonight.

Jen, I could really use

an assistant up there.

[WHISPERS] Pays really good money.

Yeah, assisting what?

[IN NORMAL VOICE]

Taking soil samples.

What are you paying?

A hundred bucks for the weekend.

Okay, 200.

Anything's better than

being stuck here with her.

I'll go pack.

I think this is it.

Where are we?

We're here?

We're here.

Wow.

Wow, Tommy.

Tommy, this is beautiful.

Yeah, it is.

This is it, little brother.

This is it, all right.

KENNY:

Is someone gonna meet us here?

They're supposed to.

He said he left the key

under the mat.

No goddamn key.

Maybe the man will bring it.

TOMMY:
Said he left it under the mat.

I ain't waiting.

Welcome home, little brother.

Thanks, Tommy.

This is great.

Yeah, it is.

[CHUCK SINGING OPERA]

MIKEY:

Really?

JEN:
Chuck, of all the

things you have to sing...

CHUCK:
What, you don't like good music?

Ha-ha-ha.

When was the last time

you went fishing?

Along, long time, Tommy.

Well, you wanna go

and get some dinner?

Can I?

Yes, you can. Come on.

We're gonna get some fish.

This is gonna be great,

Tommy. I just know it.

CHUCK:
Yeah, there are bears

and snakes and spiders,

all kinds of life-threatening

creatures, don't worry.

[MIKEY SPEAKING INDISTINCTLY]

JEN:
Wow, we're really in

the middle of nowhere.

Cool. Let's go kayaking.

[CHUCKLES]

[RINGTONE PLAYING ON PHONE]

Hello.

Jen, how are you, sweetheart?

It's me, it's Daddy.

Hey, Dad.

Hi, how you doing?

Just great.

Good. Uh, glad to hear that.

Hey, listen,

have you heard the news?

Yeah. Yeah, you're out in two weeks.

That's pretty good.

That's right. Yeah, home

in two weeks. Two weeks.

Mm-hm.

Um...

I need you to come up and see me.

It's important, I gotta talk to you.

I'm at goddamn Finger Point

with Mikey and Chuck.

Come on, don't talk like that. Please.

Right. Do you wanna talk to Chuck?

No, I wanna talk to you.

Here's Chuck.

No, Jen.

CHUCK:
Congratulations,

you get out in two weeks?

Yeah, that's what my lawyer says.

Well, you have a good lawyer.

Yeah.

What's going on with Jen?

Hey, you know what? She's 17.

Yeah. Yeah, you're right.

Um, hey, listen, Chuck,

there's something that I...

Thanks a lot for everything

you're doing.

I really appreciate it.

It means the world to me.

I don't know how to say it

any other way.

You don't have to thank me.

Listen, it's beautiful out here,

we're gonna have a great time.

Bye.

Uh, Chuck, I have to

use the bathroom.

Seriously?

Mm-hm.

[BOTH CHUCKLE]

Hilarious. Really funny.

[BOTH LAUGH]

Your dad told me you're the reason

he became an environmentalist.

When I was a little kid, I asked him

if he could protect the forest.

Evidently, he took you

pretty seriously.

Yes. Maybe a bit too seriously.

He loves his cause.

He loves you too, Jen.

Yeah, I guess.

JACK:
I understand the issues

you have with me, Jen. I do.

I wanna come home.

I wanna be with you.

I wanna be with Mikey,

I wanna be with my family.

I disappointed you in the past.

I promise you, I will not

disappoint you in the future.

I love you. Daddy.

You must be Mr. Pain.

Pleasure to meet you, sir.

I'm Tommy Baxter.

I'm supposed to know you

or something?

I sent you the check

for the cottage for the summer.

What was your last name again?

Baxter. Tommy Baxter.

Baxter. Check bounced.

I rented it to someone else,

they're coming in next week.

So you guys gotta get the hell out

of here.

You what?

I rented it to someone else.

Sir, you can't do that.

My brother and me,

we really like this house.

I'll pay you,

I'll pay you right now.

Get the hell out.

Sir, I'll pay you. I'll pay you...

I don't want your money.

Now get the hell out.

Come on, we gotta go.

[BOTH GRUNTING]

MIKEY:

Hey.

Can Jen go kayaking now, Chuck?

Yeah, put in a good day's work.

I'm impressed.

Go take Mikey kayaking.

Are you sure?

Yup, have fun.

Stay away from the other side of

the river, the current gets strong there.

Yeah.

Good work.

Come on.

JEN:
I'll race you.

Be careful.

MIKEY:
You're gonna regret that.

[PANTING]

[GROANS]

Come on, Jen.

JEN:
I'm coming.

[GRUNTING]

[GRUNTS]

[CHUCKLES]

What the hell is wrong with you?

Why are you such an a**hole?

That's our home.

That's our home now.

PAIN:

No, I'm sorry. I'm sorry.

You can't take a man's home.

Please. Please don't.

You a man of faith?

Yes. Yes.

Well, make your peace.

No.

No, no.

Dear God, please help me.

No. Forgive me.

KENNY:
Tommy.

Tommy, don't.

Please, Tommy, don't.

Stay out of this.

Please.

[PAIN SOBBING]

Jesus Christ.

What was that?

We gotta get out of here.

JEN:

What happened?

What happened?

I think somebody shot somebody.

Goddamn.

Think them kids saw something?

No, Tommy, they're just little kids.

Jenny! Mikey!

We gotta take care of this.

I don't think they saw anything,

Tommy.

MIKEY:

Come on, Jen.

KENNY:

What are we gonna do?

Got to find out

what them kids saw.

Can't hurt kids, Tommy, can't.
