Buffalo Dreams Page #2

The Tree Has To Be

Rooted In The Ground

Before It Can Grow.

How Can You Stand

The Sweat Lodge

In The Summer?

You Don't Even Have

A Ceremony Today.

Certainly A Place

Your Grandma Can't Get At Me.

[Both Laugh]

Hey, What's Up?

Well, My Editor

Wants Photographs

Of My Recipes

For His Web Site

To Go With My Book.

Hey! How Was Work?

Cruel And Unusual.

Well, I Thought You

Found It Very Creative.

I'm Stuck In A Tiny Room,

Alone, With No Windows.

I Think I Like Page 19

Of The Zigna Space Report

The Best.

This...Oh, Yeah.

This Was My Favorite.

Yeah.

See?

I Only Hope The 37

Of My New Colleagues

Will Find My Son

As Photogenic As We Do.

How Did That Get There?

You Know,

It Was Not Easy

Getting You This Job.

Making Copies?

It's Great Exposure.

To Radioactivity.

I Spoke To A Nice

Navajo Today.

They Need Help

At The Dine Bikeyah

Buffalo Preserve

Where?

The Dine Bikeyah

Buffalo Preserve.

Look Outside.

Oh, No. I Met The Guy

Who Works There

And He Was A Jerk.

You Could Ride

Your Bike.

Bro,

Look Who It Is.

Is This

Supposed To Be A Joke?

A Dirt Head

To Work With Us?

Sorry.

What'd She Say?

You're Gonna Tear

Your Hands Up.

Try These.

Appreciate It.

So, Don't Do

Much Work, Huh?

I Had A Job At The Research

Center For, Like, A Minute.

You Gave Up A Job There

To Be Here?

Yeah.

You're Nuts.

I'd Rather Be

Riding My Bike Outside,

Free.

This Isn't Free.

I Have To Work Here.

Come On, Let's Go!

Hey!

Ha Ha!

Very Funny!

What Do You Guys Do

For An Encore?

Dude, It's Safe.

Thomas:
Buckle Up.

This Is A Fence Pull.

Put The Wire Through Here...

Josh:
What's

The Big Deal?

Well, We Don't Want

Any Buffalo

Running Around Town.

What Are They,

Man-Eaters?

Moon:

Strictly Vegans, Dude.

But You Don't Want

To Stress Them.

I Mean, I've Seen Them

Toss A Man

And His Burmese

Mountain Dog

Way Across The Field.

I Mean, It Was Gnarly.

What Do You Guys Do

With The Buffalo?

I Mean, You Don't Eat Them,

You Don't Wear Them.

They Don't Make

Good Pets.

It's A Native Thing.

Oh.

So...Where Do You Guys

Go Around Here?

The Caves Are Pretty Cool,

And The Community Center

Has A New Pool.

Not What I Meant.

Go Anywhere

You Want.

I'll Be Right Back.

[Growling]

Oh.

Just Call On Me, Brother

I Need A Hand

Somethin'...

Somethin', Somethin'

Please Be Nice, Mr. Buffalo.

Don't Get Mad.

I Need Someone

To Lean On

Ha!

That's Easy.

What Are You Singing?

I Wasn't Singing.

Yeah, You Were.

It Wasn't Me.

You Guys

Aren't Supposed To

Be Riding Here.

What, Are You Protecting

Some Endangered Toad

Or Lizard

Or Scrub Brush Maybe?

This Is Restricted

Tribal Land

For The Buffalo.

Come On.

They Get 11 Million Acres,

And We Can't Ride

On A Few?

You Guys Can Ride

On The Fire Roads

And The Trails.

Ok,

But There Are

These Moon Rocks

In The North End Here.

You Go Right Over The Boulders

And You Catch Some Big Air.

Yeah?

Really Sick Descent.

Check It Out.

Moon:
Josh!

Where'd You Go, Dude?

Over Here.

Thought Maybe The Bulls

Got You Cornered.

I See They Did.

Tell Your Friends

To Share.

Boys:
Let's Go!

Come On!

Whoo!

Later!

See Ya!

Watch Out...

[Thunder]

We Should Get Going.

I'll Ride Back.

We Got Some Weather

Coming In.

Not A Problem For Me.

Suit Yourself.

You Sure?

It Could Rain.

You Heard

What He Said.

Let's Get Going.

[Engine Starts]

[Thunder]

Ohh.

[Knock On Door]

Father:
Are You Ok

In There?

[Groans]

Josh:
Let's Burn It.

We Can't Do That.

Why Not?

Because We Want

To Preserve, Not Destroy

Our Dinetah, Our Land

That Was Given To Us

By The Ancient

Holy Ones Who Came

From The Sacred

4 Mountains.

Moon, You're Danish.

Maybe In This Life.

Ok. Ready? 3, 2--

Uhh!

Ha Ha!

Nobody Lifts On One.

What?

You Count Up To 3.

No. It's 3, 2, 1, Go.

Like A Space Launch.

They Count Down.

But People Count Up.

Not Today.

Whatever.

3, 2, 1.

Uhh!

Uhh!

I Could Use A Little O2

Right About Now.

Put A Fork In Me,

I'm Done.

Not Yet.

And This, This Is

Why We're Here.

That's Cool.

Awesome.

Don't Get

Too Attached.

It's Mine.

Just Bought It.

Sweet Ride.

Lighter, Stronger,

And A Whole Lot

Faster.

Come Out And Ride.

You're Gonna Turn

Into A Stiff

Working On The Res.

It's Not That Bad.

Taking Orders

From Chili-Pickers

All Summer?

Get Real!

Grab A Bike

And Come Out

And Ride With Us.

I Mean, They're Not

That Expensive.

So Do You Have A Or A Club Or What?

Just Some Thrashers

Like Us.

Cross-Country

Racing,

Enduro Riding,

Free-Ride Dropping.

What Else

Could You Want?

Sounds Cool.

Ahem.

Hey, Friday,

We're At Red Rocks.

See You There?

I Think It's Time

For One Of My Famous

Potlucks.

[Indistinct Chatter]

Ah.

Look At This.

Hi.

Mother:

This Is Beautiful.

Hey.

[Speaks Navajo]

Hello.

Yummy.

What Are These?

These Are My Dried

Blue Corn Cheese Ball

Pick-Me-Ups.

Perfect

With Lamb Kebobs.

Yeah.

You Must Be A Real Chef.

Uh, More Of A Culinary

Anthropologist.

Oh. This Is

Thomas Blackhorse.

Hello, Thomas Blackhorse.

What Have You

Got There?

Who Knows?

My Grandson Doesn't

Speak Navajo.

He Doesn't Eat

Navajo Food.

He Only Eats Food

That Comes Out Of A Box

Or In A Bag.

You Must Be Dr. T.

Welcome. I'm Moon.

That's A Stellar Name.

Ha Ha!

Stellar.

Uh, Which One

Are You Named For?

Io, Europa, Or Titan?

Zappa.

Pardon?

Titan, For Sure.

Oh, Good. Ha Ha!

You Can Never See

This Many Stars

In The City.

It's Too Bright.

This Place Is So...

Hot, Quiet, Boring?

Big.

Nothing Ever Happens Here.

Abuela Rose Isn't

Letting You Go Anywhere.

Is That Your Mother?

My Grandmother.

She's Such A Navajo.

She Wants Me

To Eat And Speak

And Live Navajo.

My Father's

Such A Scientist.

He'd Love For Me To Work

In A Lab All My Life.

John:
My Grandson And Your Son

Will Become Good Friends

Because You And I

Have A Lot In Common.

You Work

At The Research Center?

Nope.

Oh. Oh, I'm An

Astrophysicist There.

We Have The Same Mission.

We Do?

Well...I've Actually

Begun To Shift My Focus

To The Laws And Origins

Of The Universe

And--And

The Evolutionary

Process There

So We Can

More Effectively, Um...

Protect Our Atmosphere

And Our Planet, Well,

You Know, Our World.

Yeah, Me Too.

The Dine,

The People That Is,

We Learn From The Sky.

We Tell Stories

Of Creation.

We Explore

And Protect The Earth

Just Like You.

[Pop Music Plays]

[Mouthing Words Silently]

...Here We Go

Here We Go...

She Can Hear Fine.

She Just Doesn't Talk.

Has She Always

Been This Way?

Not Always.

I Think Your Parents

Are Leaving.

Ok. Thanks...

For Dinner

And Everything.

Not A Problem.

Here We Are,

What You Say

Here We Are,

What You Say

Here We Are...

Well, I Met A Boy

Named Moon,

A Girl Named Domino,

And A Medicine Man

Who Says That The Navajo

And Scientists Are

Like Blood Brothers.

Ah, The Sign

Of A Great Party.

Why Don't You Take Him Out

And Show Him A Good Time?

Who?

That New Boy.

His Type Doesn't

Stick Around.
