00:
38:53,040 -- 00:38:55,429...who'd hesitate for a minute...
577
00:
38:56,040 -- 00:38:59,589...before they'd call on Buddy Deeds
to solve a problem.
578
00:
39:00,920 -- 00:39:02,353More than that...
579
00:
39:04,040 -- 00:39:05,712...I wouldn't care to say.
580
00:
39:08,280 -- 00:39:11,397I'm supposed to tell my friends
they're too low-class to hang with?
581
00:
39:11,480 -- 00:39:12,833Come on, Amado.
582
00:
39:12,960 -- 00:39:16,191-'Cause I'm not like Miss Honor Roll?
-Leave your sister out of it.
583
00:
39:16,280 -- 00:39:18,271You and those teachers in that dump....
584
00:
39:18,360 -- 00:39:20,635Your story's over, so nobody can have fun.
585
00:
39:20,720 -- 00:39:21,630You jerk.
586
00:
39:21,720 -- 00:39:23,551You have no friends.
587
00:
39:23,640 -- 00:39:25,631Who'd be friends with a ipachuco/i wannabe?
588
00:
39:26,000 -- 00:39:29,549-I don't pretend I came on the Mayflower.
589
00:
39:29,640 -- 00:39:30,675Shut up.
590
00:
39:31,000 -- 00:39:34,356Joanie Orozco's telling the whole school
she's in love with Santo Guerra.
591
00:
39:34,440 -- 00:39:35,316So?
592
00:
39:35,400 -- 00:39:37,868You can't be desperately in love
when you're 14.
593
00:
39:38,760 -- 00:39:40,876Not if you have half a brain in your head.
594
00:
39:40,960 -- 00:39:42,552Of course, you can.
595
00:
39:43,160 -- 00:39:44,036What?
596
00:
39:44,480 -- 00:39:47,119It's got nothing to do with being smart.
597
00:
39:48,040 -- 00:39:50,508It's ancient goddamn history, Danny.
598
00:
39:50,680 -- 00:39:54,3551963, they dam up the north branch
to make Lake Pescadero...
599
00:
39:54,440 -- 00:39:56,351...and a whole town disappears.
600
00:
39:56,440 -- 00:39:57,634A squatter's town!
601
00:
39:57,720 -- 00:40:02,032People lived in Perdido for over 100 years!
Mexicans and Chicanos are deported...
602
00:
40:02,120 -- 00:40:05,829...forcibly evicted by our local hero,
Buddy Deeds, and his department.
603
00:
40:06,000 -- 00:40:08,116There was a bill from the state legislature.
604
00:
40:08,200 -- 00:40:11,317Families were split apart!
A whole community was destroyed!
605
00:
40:11,440 -- 00:40:15,592And who gets Lakefront property
bought for a fraction of the market price?
606
00:
40:15,920 -- 00:40:19,754Buddy Deeds, Sheriff of Rio County,
and his Chief Deputy, Hollis Pogue.
607
00:
40:20,520 -- 00:40:21,839Are you finished?
608
00:
40:23,240 -- 00:40:25,037Look, I'm not after you, Sam.
609
00:
40:25,440 -- 00:40:28,910I just think people ought to know
the full story on Buddy Deeds.
610
00:
40:31,280 -- 00:40:32,759That makes two of us.
611
00:
40:36,720 -- 00:40:40,838What's the big deal? Go back over,
talk to the man, and bury the hatchet.
612
00:
40:40,920 -- 00:40:44,151Why me? He's had almost 40 years
and I haven't heard from him.
613
00:
40:44,240 -- 00:40:45,639He was probably embarrassed.
614
00:
40:45,720 -- 00:40:48,871Otis Payne was never embarrassed
about a thing in his life.
615
00:
40:49,120 -- 00:40:50,917You were 8 when he left.
616
00:
40:51,160 -- 00:40:54,232with my mother's best friend.
617
00:
40:54,760 -- 00:40:55,795Dad.
618
00:
40:56,480 -- 00:40:58,630''Delmore, where's your daddy?''
619
00:
40:58,760 -- 00:41:02,275Godforsaken town.
Everybody in everybody else's business.
620
00:
41:02,480 -- 00:41:04,152Everybody loved Otis. Big ''O.''
621
00:
41:04,240 -- 00:41:07,357Always there with a smile or a loan...
622
00:
41:07,440 -- 00:41:10,238-...or a free drink.
-Dad, can I talk to you about track?
623
00:
41:10,320 -- 00:41:11,275People change.
624
00:
41:11,840 -- 00:41:12,989Not that much.
625
00:
41:13,080 -- 00:41:14,035I talked to the coach.
626
00:
41:14,120 -- 00:41:16,315I told you. Next year,
if your grades are high.
627
00:
41:16,400 -- 00:41:17,594I have a B average!
628
00:
41:17,680 -- 00:41:20,353How many B students do you think
they take at West Point?
629
00:
41:20,440 -- 00:41:22,829We'll be here for three years.
We'll have to see him.
630
00:
41:23,480 -- 00:41:24,879No, we don't.
631
00:
41:34,160 -- 00:41:37,152Get off the phone.
We've got a big wedding.
632
00:
41:37,480 -- 00:41:38,435Mommy....
633
00:
41:42,520 -- 00:41:44,715They are getting stupider every year.
634
00:
41:44,840 -- 00:41:47,115Maybe you're getting less patient.
635
00:
41:47,680 -- 00:41:50,877If they're going to survive,
they have to know how to work.
636
00:
41:51,240 -- 00:41:53,708You hire illegals, what do you expect?
637
00:
41:54,280 -- 00:41:56,191Nobody's illegal in my cafe!
638
00:
41:56,560 -- 00:41:59,996They've got green cards,
relatives who were born here.
639
00:
42:00,400 -- 00:42:03,153If they only had a little common sense,
I'd be happy.
640
00:
42:03,240 -- 00:42:06,232If you took more time training them,
you wouldn't have to--
641
00:
42:06,320 -- 00:42:09,676Did you come here to teach me
how to run my business?
642
00:
42:17,440 -- 00:42:19,476Do you want to take a trip...
643
00:
42:19,600 -- 00:42:21,033...down south with us?
644
00:
42:21,120 -- 00:42:23,111Maybe see where you grew up?
645
00:
42:23,560 -- 00:42:26,393-Why would I want to go there?
-You must be curious...
646
00:
42:26,480 -- 00:42:30,234...how it's changed. Amado is
into this big itejano/i-roots thing...
647
00:
42:31,680 -- 00:42:34,274...and I've never been further
than Ciudad Len.
648
00:
42:34,480 -- 00:42:36,118You want to see Mexicans?
649
00:
42:36,280 -- 00:42:38,316Open your eyes and look around you.
650
00:
42:38,600 -- 00:42:40,477We're up to our ears in them.
651
00:
42:42,480 -- 00:42:43,754Mommy...
652
00:
42:45,600 -- 00:42:48,194...how old were you when my father died?
653
00:
42:49,120 -- 00:42:50,439He was killed.
654
00:
42:51,040 -- 00:42:52,758Right, when he was killed.
655
00:
42:54,440 -- 00:42:56,908A little older than Paloma is now.
656
00:
42:57,800 -- 00:42:59,631How come you never remarried?
657
00:
43:01,240 -- 00:43:03,151It just didn't happen.
658
00:
43:04,680 -- 00:43:05,954There must have been...
659
00:
43:06,040 -- 00:43:07,155...somebody.
660
00:
43:08,560 -- 00:43:09,959I was too busy.
661
00:
43:12,400 -- 00:43:14,391Nobody is too busy.
662
00:
43:15,000 -- 00:43:16,035Maybe now.
663
00:
43:16,320 -- 00:43:18,356It was different back then.
664
00:
43:18,840 -- 00:43:21,718I had to do all the shopping,
all the cooking....
665
00:
43:22,040 -- 00:43:25,874What do I need some ichulo/i with grease
under his nails to drink up the profit?
666
00:
43:27,000 -- 00:43:27,876Thank you.
667
00:
43:28,160 -- 00:43:29,388I don't mean Fernando.
668
00:
43:30,720 -- 00:43:33,280When I brought him home,
those were your exact words:
669
00:
43:33,360 -- 00:43:35,351
