Missionary Man Page #2
For starters, you wear
funny-looking reading glasses,
and you read the Bible, and drink tequila.
And just the way you talk and treat people.
I heard about that fight this morning.
It's a really nice thing you did
for that kid, Billy, and all.
- So I don't want to be prying, but...
- Then don't.
Hey, dude. Dude, come here.
I heard you were still here, man.
I'm just... Just thought
I'd let you know that... There was...
Those guys you beat up, man?
They work for this guy, Reno.
The guy runs the whole town.
He's got everybody scared.
You know what I mean...
Reno, huh?
Yeah, man. These guys, they...
They drowned somebody in the river,
if you know what I mean.
I know exactly what you mean.
- You want some coffee?
- No.
- So what's on your mind?
- Everybody's favorite citizen, Reno.
- We have to do something about him.
- Well, it ain't that simple.
The last time I tried to have an investigation,
it was called off quickly, by that judge.
JJ's drowning was no accident.
Nancy, we're all going to miss JJ,
but accusing Reno
is not going to bring him back.
And it's only going to cause
more problems for you.
Come on, Sheriff.
Now, you be careful.
Stay out of Reno's way,
because he's a very dangerous man.
Come back anytime.
You have a nice day, okay?
That's it?
That's it.
Now, when I was a boy,
the government came and took me away
from my mother and dad,
and put me in what they call
a residential school.
They cut my hair off. My hair was long.
And I couldn't speak my language.
If I spoke my language, they would beat me.
That's why a lot of people my age
can't speak our language anymore,
because it was beaten out of us.
I am looking at the eagle up there.
You share the same fate.
You are destined to soar free,
above all others,
carried by the wind
Now, in our culture, four is a sacred number
because everything grows in fours.
The seed, the branches
and the fruit and the leaves.
And when we pray, we pray to the Creator,
we pray in four directions.
And the four winds come in four directions.
So four is a very sacred number for us.
Mom will take care of it.
- You coming?
- I'm going to wait here.
Hey, there. I'll just take some of these.
So that day my Uncle JJ drowned,
he came here first, right?
- So what?
- I'm just asking.
Look...
He came in, got a case of beer.
And the Sheriff has already
asked me about that.
They said he was drunk when he drowned.
- Yeah, I heard.
- You know he didn't drink.
Who was the beer for, then? Reno?
'Cause Reno drinks beer.
- Hey, was Reno with him that day?
- Look, I'm busy.
- You're such a loser.
- You want to pay for that?
Good afternoon, miss.
Can I help you with those candy bars?
I heard that you
were at the Tribal Council meeting today.
What did the old fools have to say?
Anything interesting?
Hey, just let him go.
I asked you a question, little lady.
Anything interesting?
Yeah.
But it's above your kindergarten education.
That's wasn't very nice.
You need to tell
She needs to drop
that idiotic gaming proposal of hers.
Hey, that's none of your business.
Just let him go.
He's just fine.
- How old are you, sweetheart?
- Fifteen.
Nice, nice, nice.
How'd you like to come hang out at the pool
with me and the boys?
We sure would love to see you in a bikini.
Yeah... But you know what?
Maybe we don't even have to go anywhere.
Hey, hey. Come on, man.
Look, I don't think this is such a good idea.
- She's just a kid.
- What, are you going soft on us, Hoss?
Get over there and do your f***ing job.
Since when did we become child molesters?
Just back off, man.
You just keep on riding, mister.
This ain't none of your business.
Everything you do from now on
is my business.
You f***ing a**hole.
We own this town, and the Sheriff included.
No, stop! He tried to helped me.
All right, man. Get out of here.
- I'm fine. I think so.
- Are you sure?
- I'll take you home. All right?
- All right.
You follow. Let's go.
- Why don't you come have some dinner?
- My mom's a really good cook.
Haven't had home cooking in a while,
especially not this good.
Hey, thanks for what you did.
Nobody stands up to Reno.
His family's got too many
connections in this town.
People like Reno,
you just got to stand up and fight back.
For some folks,
it's the only thing they understand.
So you travel around on your bike
all the time, and help people?
Yep. I tend to move around a lot,
and things just happen along the way.
- Doesn't it get lonely?
- Nope.
You know, you remind me so much of JJ.
- He was always helping people out.
- Yeah. And look what happened to him.
- Junior.
- Soon as I'm 18, I'm getting out of here.
There's no way I'm going to end up like him.
It's a real shame that in today's day and age,
we couldn't find the evil that took him.
My grandfather was born a free Indian,
before the reservations, before the Civil War,
before the railway, even.
Now they're poisoning our youth.
And for what? The white man's evil.
Alcohol, drugs and money.
Greed is the evil that killed my son.
He was a good warrior for our people,
and a great son.
Kiowa, honey? Why don't you
take our guest outside for some fresh air?
We can have dessert later.
And you, where's your family?
Well, my family is my friends and my faith.
Oh, and my bike.
Well, you have friends here, now.
So I guess that makes us family, huh?
It looks like it.
I know what you mean, though.
It's like you're searching for something
or someone you can never find.
You have a few years to figure it all out.
But sometimes the answer
is closer than you think.
Well, I never knew my father, you know.
JJ always took care of me,
I just miss him a lot.
It's just so unfair.
He's like here one day
and then gone the next.
I just don't understand it.
Sometimes things are better left alone,
not understood.
That's easy for you to say.
You just beat up anyone you want.
Don't you have a girlfriend?
White Deer is a wise old man.
- He's seen many things in his lifetime.
- Yeah, he likes you.
- You want to go say good night to him?
- Yeah, all right.
Put your weapons on the ground.
Put them on the ground! Now!
Nobody moves, nobody gets shot.
It's that simple.
Alex, jump down there and grab those bags.
Put them on the boat, one at a time.
Hurry! Let's go! Let's go!
Put it all on the boat, every single
one of them. Don't miss anything.
That's it.
Hold your fire, God damn it!
Boss, one's getting away!
Well, what are you looking at? Go get him!
Bullseye Bill.
Son of a b*tch!
- Where's he now?
- On the way. Leave it.
- Where the hell is he?
- I think we lost him.
- The boss is going to kick our ass.
- Shut up.
What is this?
All right, that's enough.
Come on back to the boat.
Come get back here, and get on board.
Let's get out of here.
