iThere's rice. Plenty of rice.

Your rice needs definitely will be met./i

443

00:
41:46,089 -- 00:41:48,248

iBut, um.../i

444

00:
41:50,010 -- 00:41:53,426

iIf you do.../i

445

00:
41:54,431 -- 00:41:56,839

iIf you do come back,/i

446

00:
41:57,059 -- 00:41:59,550

iI will feel guilty, yes,/i

447

00:
41:59,770 -- 00:42:03,720

iand... I already do,

just for asking you./i

448

00:
42:03,941 -- 00:42:06,229

iBut.../i

449

00:
42:07,444 -- 00:42:10,979

iat least I won't feel the fear,

and I know that's not fair./i

450

00:
42:11,198 -- 00:42:13,155

iUm.../i

451

00:
42:13,367 -- 00:42:16,617

iso that's why I'm doing this./i

452

00:
43:00,914 -- 00:43:03,832

- Hey!

- I'm busy!

453

00:
43:04,042 -- 00:43:08,455

- Can't take you today.

- Yeah, well, I can't take you either.

454

00:
43:18,849 -- 00:43:22,467

Pop, remember that trip I took

a couple of years back, to Malaysia?

455

00:
43:22,686 -- 00:43:27,644

Yeah, I remember. Some sleaze was

selling frequent-flyer miles, right?

456

00:
43:27,858 -- 00:43:32,354

That's not the point. The point is

this guy is still over there in Penang.

457

00:
43:32,571 -- 00:43:35,987

He's kind of a pal.

But anyway, they're gonna hang him.

458

00:
43:36,200 -- 00:43:42,202

They found some hashish on him.

But some of the hash was mine.

459

00:
43:42,414 -- 00:43:44,656

So if I go back there,

460

00:
43:44,875 -- 00:43:48,707

I'd have to serve

three years in prison, Penang Prison.

461

00:
43:48,921 -- 00:43:51,044

But if I don't go back,

they hang this guy.

462

00:
43:51,256 -- 00:43:54,376

They don't hang guys for hashish.

I'm not that naive.

463

00:
43:54,593 -- 00:43:56,751

You're leaving something out.

464

00:
43:56,970 -- 00:44:01,050

I'm not leaving anything out, Dad.

That's the way it is over there.

465

00:
44:01,266 -- 00:44:03,971

All right. So maybe you're right

and I'm wrong.

466

00:
44:04,186 -- 00:44:06,855

You still want my advice

in this hanging stuff?

467

00:
44:07,064 -- 00:44:09,187

- Yeah.

- It feels like an easy call.

468

00:
44:11,693 -- 00:44:15,940

If you weren't wasting your life here,

it might be different.

469

00:
44:16,156 -- 00:44:18,564

But this pal you'll save,

470

00:
44:18,784 -- 00:44:21,571

odds are he's worth more than you.

471

00:
44:21,787 -- 00:44:25,452

So my advice, you go, you do the time.

472

00:
44:27,459 -- 00:44:30,377

What's the matter? You look sick.

473

00:
44:33,340 -- 00:44:36,424

You're my dad. You're supposed to

beg me not to go back.

474

00:
44:36,635 -- 00:44:39,671

It's just not

what I expected to hear, I guess.

475

00:
44:39,888 -- 00:44:42,296

Lighten up. I'm just yanking your crank.

476

00:
44:43,267 -- 00:44:46,718

Why put yourself through the agony

when you know you're not going?

477

00:
44:46,937 -- 00:44:51,599

I mean, who's kidding who?

What are we, suckers here?

478

00:
44:58,991 -- 00:45:01,316

No, they did what?

479

00:
45:02,578 -- 00:45:04,617

They weighed him?

480

00:
45:05,914 -- 00:45:07,990

For what?

481

00:
45:18,969 -- 00:45:21,542

Jesus.

482

00:
45:23,056 -- 00:45:24,599

Uh...

483

00:
45:26,935 -- 00:45:33,104

Uh... I... I have to get my other...

I have to get the call.

484

00:
45:33,317 -- 00:45:35,060

Um...

485

00:
45:35,277 -- 00:45:37,898

It might be one of the guys.

We'll talk tomorrow?

486

00:
45:45,078 -- 00:45:47,367

Um... This... this is Beth.

487

00:
45:47,581 -- 00:45:52,290

Beth, hi. You sound stressed.

This is MJ Major.

488

00:
45:52,503 -- 00:45:54,579

iIs this a bad time?/i

489

00:
45:55,714 -- 00:45:58,549

No. No, it's not a bad time.

490

00:
45:58,759 -- 00:46:01,214

Beth, what's wrong? How can I help?

491

00:
46:02,804 -- 00:46:07,597

You know... You want to know

how you can help?

492

00:
46:07,809 -- 00:46:12,139

Just leave me alone, MJ.

Just leave me alone.

493

00:
46:12,356 -- 00:46:17,231

I've got the resources to a daily paper

with worldwide readership.

494

00:
46:17,444 -- 00:46:20,113

iWe are picked up

by the International Herald Trib./i

495

00:
46:20,322 -- 00:46:24,367

We could be doing anything you want.

Photographs, articles, petitions...

496

00:
46:24,576 -- 00:46:27,779

Every single one a death warrant, MJ.

A death warrant.

497

00:
46:29,498 -- 00:46:34,658

Now, I've asked you nicely to stay out

of this until after the hearing.

498

00:
46:34,878 -- 00:46:38,793

If I don't get something from you

soon, I'll go straight to your two guys.

499

00:
46:40,133 -- 00:46:43,004

You don't know who they are,

or you'd already be there.

500

00:
46:43,220 -- 00:46:45,343

I'm hanging up.

501

00:
46:45,556 -- 00:46:48,889

Beth, I'm gonna need

to hear from you very soon.

502

00:
46:50,853 -- 00:46:52,644

You will.

503

00:
46:54,648 -- 00:46:56,973

Sheriff. Well, hi.

504

00:
46:57,192 -- 00:47:00,110

I didn't expect to see you. Come on in.

505

00:
47:00,320 -- 00:47:02,479

Thanks. How are you doing?

506

00:
47:04,491 -- 00:47:06,614

- Couldn't be better.

- Yeah?

507

00:
47:06,827 -- 00:47:09,116

Please give me some good news.

508

00:
47:09,329 -- 00:47:14,075

Are you, um...

Did you get my message about dinner?

509

00:
47:14,293 -- 00:47:17,578

Yeah, I got your message

but I can't make dinner. I got plans.

510

00:
47:17,796 -- 00:47:20,287

But I did want

to return this to you. The tape.

511

00:
47:23,135 -- 00:47:25,460

Uh... OK.

512

00:
47:25,679 -- 00:47:29,511

- Did you watch it?

- Yeah, I watched the whole thing.

513

00:
47:29,725 -- 00:47:31,764

And, um...

514

00:
47:31,977 -- 00:47:36,306

I did a lot of soul-searching

last night with this.

515

00:
47:36,523 -- 00:47:39,441

And I figure you've got

to know sooner than later

516

00:
47:39,651 -- 00:47:41,727

because of everything.

517

00:
47:41,945 -- 00:47:46,524

I just wanted to come and let you know

where you stand with me.

518

00:
47:46,742 -- 00:47:48,948

That's good.

519

00:
47:50,579 -- 00:47:53,864

Where do I stand with you?

520

00:
47:54,082 -- 00:48:00,085

I talked to Tony and he said...

He's halfway to Penang already.

521

00:
48:00,297 -- 00:48:03,796

I think he just needs a nudge.

I think he'll probably go back.

522

00:
48:04,009 -- 00:48:05,551

But, um...

523

00:
48:05,761 -- 00:48:10,257

You know, I looked inside,

deep inside, Beth,

524

00:
48:10,474 -- 00:48:13,510

to find something, but, uh...

525

00:
48:15,812 -- 00:48:17,852

it isn't in me.

526

00:
48:20,901 -- 00:48:23,273

Oh, it isn't... in you.

527

00:
48:27,616 -- 00:48:33,452

Jot that down. Do me a favour? Write

that down for me. Just a few words.

528

00:
48:33,664 -- 00:48:36,997

I'd love to give them to Lew

before he hangs. Letter from a pal.

529

00:
48:37,209 -- 00:48:41,207

Listen, I... "Searched my soul"

was the best part for me.

530

00:
48:41,421 -- 00:48:43,580

I don't know. That's great.

531

00:
48:43,799 -- 00:48:49,339

He'd love to know that you searched

your soul before you decided not to go.
