- Emma and the kids

weren't too happy about me

moving them closer to town,

but it was best

for the business.

- Let me help you out here.

- Thanks.

- - Hey, Jake.

- Bob Collins.

- Nice to meet you, Bob.

- This is Seth.

- - How you doing?

- Seth Collins.

- Nice to meet you.

- All right, good luck.

- Thanks.

- Hello, Seth, Bob.

- Hey, Preacher Sam!

- Looking good!

- Preacher Sam, how you doing?

- I'm doing good.

Well, see you all tomorrow.

- Yeah, let's give it a ring.

Oh yeah, should be all right.

- I remember when Mama

used to ring that bell

'til our feet hit

the front porch.

Used to drive Daddy crazy.

- He'd be proud.

- Yes, he would.

This is for him, for the family.

- Collins brothers.

We got us a business

that we can share.

The hard work is

going to pay off, too.

- God's been good to us.

I'm just happy to

have my baby brother

as my business partner.

Look, I gotta run.

I gotta meet Emma and

the kids at the pond,

and she don't like me

being late for anything.

- Well, you better go

and get out of here, Bobby.

I'll see you and the family

tomorrow for the Grand Opening.

- You know it.

See you then.

- I'm hungry, Pops.

- Well, you know

I think Mama, she made

some corn bread and

some homemade jam.

Y'all ready for a picnic?

- Yes.

- All right, come on.

- This is for you, Miss Emma.

- Thank you, sweetheart.

All right.

- Thanks, Mom!

- Let's go.

- Michael, wait up.

- How's the store looking?

- Tomorrow's a big day.

We've even got Grandma's

dinner bell hanging outside.

- That loud thing?

I'm sure the customers are

really gonna like that.

- It ain't that loud.

- Yes, it is.

That thing sounds

like a train coming.

- Well, I'll tell you what.

We never missed a meal.

- Oh yeah, you right about that.

- What else you got in there?

- Some jam.

- There's a biscuit, too.

- - Yes, indeed.

- Every time I see

that tree over there,

it reminds me of when

I was a little boy.

Me and my daddy, we

planted this little seed.

It grew into something

really beautiful.

That's how God is with us.

He takes our family and

He rains down His love.

- Daddy?

Hey, Pop!

Daddy.

- He ain't here.

We found him this morning...

facedown in the creek.

Ain't but a foot deep.

- Matty, do you know

what happens in the woods

when all the wolves die out?

- No, I don't, Snake.

- When they get hunted down...

that's when they move in.

- What are you

even talking about, Snake?

- What about the store, Matty?

First the store, then

what? The whole town?

No.

I ain't gonna let them...

take our town.

That store was my daddy's store,

your daddy's store.

- I know.

Why does it have to be

anybody's store, Snake?

Can't it just...

Can't you just let it...

Just let it be?

- You always was soft.

- Okay.

We're gonna to scare 'em well.

Let's run them out of town

for good, Snake, me and you.

The Cain brothers.

Let's do it, let's do it!

Let's do it, yeah!

I ain't soft.

Snake!

- Where are them kids?

- They was here somewhere.

- - I have no ide...

- Check the closet.

- Closet.

I know they're here somewhere.

Mama Bear, did you

see those kids?

How about an "I love you"?

- Too old!

I made your favorite,

mashed potatoes and gravy!

- I'm just going out with

the boys to get some beers.

That's all. No harm.

- When did you start

drinking again?

- Come on!

- Who are those boys?

- Snake and Matty.

I met 'em at the

stables, hangin' around.

- Do they work there?

- No.

Listen, Carrie. Just put

my food on the warmer.

I'll be back later, all right?

Hey, their uncle is

Sheriff Joe Cain.

I mean how much

trouble could I get in?

- Okay.

- I'll see you later!

- I love you.

- I know you do.

- Let me guess,

she made your favorite.

You know, Jake, 50% of

marriages fail for a reason.

- Don't do nothing stupid now.

- Just gonna scare 'em, Joe.

That's it.

- That's it.

- You got it, Joe.

- You're gonna

go on a little ride

with me and Matty here.

- Sheriff.

- Raise 'em up, boys.

To the brotherhood.

To the brotherhood.

- Brotherhood.

- Woo!

- Ah!

- Burns.

- You boys have fun, now.

- You sure know

how to make a man

feel good, Mama Bear.

- I'm just proud of you.

You been working so, so hard,

for so long, on this one.

- Still a lot to do.

Got a long way to go.

- You sure you and Seth

know what you doing?

- Well, we gonna be all right.

If the store is successful,

it can go a long way in

healing a lot of old wounds.

Besides, honey.

God done brought us this far.

We can't turn around now.

- Okay.

You comin' in?

- I'll be in in a minute.

- I trust you, Bob.

- Okay.

- I know what you all up to.

I don't want no trouble.

This is my property.

Go on home, now.

If you leave now, we'll just

act like this never happened.

- I tell you what.

Kinda hoping you don't forget.

I don't think you're

understanding me.

The big picture,

we don't like you.

We don't want you here.

- I don't care

whether you like me or not.

What I do know,

this is my property!

I'm not asking you,

I'm telling you!

Now, get on outta here!

- Bob?

- It's okay, Emma.

Just get on back inside.

Go on. Get back inside.

- Done gone and

made me real mad.

- Shep, get 'em!

- No!

What're you doing?!

- No, no, no, Jakey.

You're one of us. Remember?

The brotherhood.

We gonna burn 'em.

- Burn 'em?

- Matty?

- - Yeah?

- Light it up.

- Now?

- Right now.

- No, Matty! No!

Matty, don't do it.

- Fire works.

- Throw it on the porch.

- No, Matty! Don't do it!

He's got kids in there.

- Get in the truck.

Now!

- Bob lost

his wife and two kids.

- Yeah, it's a real pity.

- Doesn't look like an accident.

- Of course, it was.

- There's a

bottle on the porch.

- Hey!

It was an accident.

- Sure.

- How do we rise above

the ashes of such a loss?

The loss of a good woman,

and her two innocent children?

This is an unthinkable pain.

A pain that reaches to the

deepest recesses of our soul.

There are no human

words to console,

but there is

comfort in His word.

The word ministers to our soul,

calms our spirit,

brings new life into us,
