1. This is a true story.Copy !req
2. The events depicted
took place in Minnesota,Copy !req
3. North and South Dakota
in 1979.Copy !req
4. At the request
of the survivors,Copy !req
5. the names have
been changed.Copy !req
6. Out of respect
for the dead...Copy !req
7. The rest has been told
exactly as it occurred.Copy !req
8. Feeling better then?Copy !req
9. Mmm.Copy !req
10. Doc says you had a reaction
to those pills they gave you.Copy !req
11. I told him they were
supposed to kill the cancer,Copy !req
12. but he says the pills
may kill you first.Copy !req
13. Hmm?Copy !req
14. Is Lou back?Copy !req
15. No, and no word either.Copy !req
16. Something to eat?Copy !req
17. Oh, God, no.Copy !req
18. My dad?Copy !req
19. Same. No word.Copy !req
20. And Molly?Copy !req
21. Tried to put her
in her own bed,
but she wouldn't go.Copy !req
22. Stubborn.
Yeah.Copy !req
23. She gets that
from her dad.Copy !req
24. If you're not gonna eat,
Doc says sleep.Copy !req
25. Get your strength back.Copy !req
26. Hmm.Copy !req
27. So, you stay
lying down, you.Copy !req
28. And it's okay,
I'll be right here.Copy !req
29. That night,
I had a dream.Copy !req
30. Next week, we'll discuss
economic concepts...Copy !req
31. It felt so real,Copy !req
32. even though I knew
it couldn't be,Copy !req
33. or wasn't yet.Copy !req
34. Yes, Molly.Copy !req
35. I dreamt of a magical future,
filled with wondrous devices.Copy !req
36. Where everything
you could ever wantCopy !req
37. would be available
in one amazing place.Copy !req
38. All right.Copy !req
39. Hey. Mmm-hmm.
Daddy.Copy !req
40. Just one more.
And there was
happiness there.Copy !req
41. But then I saw
farther still.Copy !req
42. Years,
decades into the future.Copy !req
43. I saw a handsome older man,
his back still straight.Copy !req
44. Visited by his children
and grandchildren.Copy !req
45. People of accomplishment,
of contentment.Copy !req
46. But then,Copy !req
47. I saw chaos.Copy !req
48. The fracture of peace
and enlightenment.Copy !req
49. And I worried,
that the future I had seen,Copy !req
50. magical and
filled with light...Copy !req
51. Yeah.
might never come to pass.Copy !req
52. Go.Copy !req
53. I can make it.Copy !req
54. Dinner Sunday?Copy !req
55. I'll be there.
In a suit of armor.Copy !req
56. Hey!Copy !req
57. Hey, hey!
Hey, hey, mister!Copy !req
58. What's the trouble,
young fella?Copy !req
59. Mister, we need a ride.Copy !req
60. Come on.Copy !req
61. People of Earth.Copy !req
62. I'm home.Copy !req
63. Come on, Ed.Copy !req
64. Come on. Come on.Copy !req
65. Come on,
you're gonna be okay.Copy !req
66. Just a little further.
Look.Copy !req
67. Come on.Copy !req
68. Get outta here.Copy !req
69. Sweet Christmas.Copy !req
70. Get outta here!
Go on, get outta here!
There's a bad man coming!Copy !req
71. Okay, I'm gonna
use the phone.
I'm gonna call...Copy !req
72. Hon, come on.
Let's go, come on.Copy !req
73. Come on.Copy !req
74. Oh! Don't! Don't!Copy !req
75. You were supposed
to watch them,
Ed and Peggy.Copy !req
76. Come on.Copy !req
77. Yeah. Okay.Copy !req
78. I don't know, Ed.Copy !req
79. It's okay.Copy !req
80. We can lock it
from the inside.Copy !req
81. Hide out till they're...
Till we're rescued.Copy !req
82. World War III out there
in case you didn't notice.Copy !req
83. You okay there?
Don't start.Copy !req
84. She blindsided me, okay?
A pack of wolves at the door.Copy !req
85. I didn't think
the bitch...Copy !req
86. Didn't think she'd be
dumb enough to sucker me.Copy !req
87. Only one way he could
have gone, Hanzee.
Huh?Copy !req
88. And your feeling is
we go the same way,
instead of home to bed.Copy !req
89. Yeah. In a hurry.Copy !req
90. FUBAR, yeah?
FUBAR.Copy !req
91. We got to lock it.Copy !req
92. Here.Copy !req
93. Come on, come on.Copy !req
94. Here.Copy !req
95. Sit down. You can do it.
Come on. You sit here.Copy !req
96. Come here.Copy !req
97. Sorry. I gotta...Copy !req
98. It's bad.Copy !req
99. Hold on. Let me just see
how bad it is.Copy !req
100. Okay.Copy !req
101. You're gonna be okay.Copy !req
102. Peggy, I don't think
we're gonna make it.Copy !req
103. Don't you say that,
Ed Blumquist.Copy !req
104. We've come this far.
We're gonna go all the way.Copy !req
105. No, I'm saying even
if we get out of this,Copy !req
106. I don't think we're gonna
make it, you and me.Copy !req
107. What are you saying?
We're just too different.Copy !req
108. Don't say that.
This, what we been through...Copy !req
109. Adversity, that's what
seals the bond.Copy !req
110. Makes us stronger.Copy !req
111. Like how
a bone heals.
Peg...Copy !req
112. Peg...Copy !req
113. No. No, I know I had
my doubts. I know,
but I'm sure now.Copy !req
114. Peg. Will you just
let me talk?
I'm sure.Copy !req
115. You're always trying
to fix everything,Copy !req
116. but sometimes
nothing's broken.Copy !req
117. Everything's
working just fine.Copy !req
118. If you can't see that,
if you don't know that...Copy !req
119. Ed.Copy !req
120. I love you.Copy !req
121. I do.Copy !req
122. All I'm ever gonna want
is to get back to what we had.Copy !req
123. Hello.Copy !req
124. Gale, be reasonable.Copy !req
125. From this moment forward,Copy !req
126. I decree, no more
schnitzel or strudel.Copy !req
127. Let's get some
American food up in...Copy !req
128. Everyone's dead.Copy !req
129. Forget something?Copy !req
130. Well, you caught me.Copy !req
131. I thought nobody was home.Copy !req
132. We're here.Copy !req
133. Remind me which one
you are again?Copy !req
134. The kid Otto
had with the maid?Copy !req
135. You see the shotgun, right?Copy !req
136. What, you couldn't
afford a real one?Copy !req
137. Times are tough,
friend-o.Copy !req
138. Hey, why do you think
I'm stealing the silver?Copy !req
139. Hey, maybeCopy !req
140. in the spirit
of human struggle,Copy !req
141. we say bygones.Copy !req
142. You let me get back in my car
and drive away.Copy !req
143. Do you know what
the definition of
the word "sovereignty" is?Copy !req
144. What am I,Copy !req
145. Professor from
Gilligan's Island?Copy !req
146. Sovereignty is absolute
power and authority.Copy !req
147. Like a king?
Exactly.Copy !req
148. Which is who I am.Copy !req
149. Your king.Copy !req
150. Uh...Copy !req
151. It's America, brother.Copy !req
152. We don't do kings.Copy !req
153. Oh, we do.Copy !req
154. We do.Copy !req
155. We just call them
something else.Copy !req
156. See, today is my
coronation day.Copy !req
157. And on coronation day,
I've always believed,Copy !req
158. a new king should
start his reign
with an act of kindness.Copy !req
159. Right on.Copy !req
160. And an act of cruelty.Copy !req
161. That way, your subjects know
that you're capable of both.Copy !req
162. God and monster.Copy !req
163. Shit.Copy !req
164. Sign me up
for the first one.Copy !req
165. Problem is,
Wilma works in the kitchen.Copy !req
166. Oh, the Injun?Copy !req
167. Right.Copy !req
168. She has already
received my kindness,Copy !req
169. to wit, a brand new car,Copy !req
170. and all the money
that was in that cabinet
you were searching.Copy !req
171. Damn.Copy !req
172. Which means you...
Don't tell me.Copy !req
173. are shit out of luck.Copy !req
174. Story of my life,
brother.Copy !req
175. Hey, you ever
been to Baltimore?Copy !req
176. An act of cruelty,
remember?Copy !req
177. Well, I'm bushed,
think I'm gonna go
take a nap.Copy !req
178. You should get
some rest, too.Copy !req
179. For in the morning,
we journey home to bathe
in that warm champagneCopy !req
180. that is
corporate praise.Copy !req
181. Who knows?Copy !req
182. Maybe they'll even
throw us a parade.Copy !req
183. I love a parade.Copy !req
184. Ed, save your strength, huh?Copy !req
185. You're gonna be fine and
we'll figure this all out.Copy !req
186. And I know I've been
nothing but trouble to you.Copy !req
187. I know.Copy !req
188. Maybe he just
walks away.Copy !req
189. He's trying to
smoke us out!Copy !req
190. Help me, Ed.Copy !req
191. They'll see... Somebody...
They'll see and they'll...Copy !req
192. They'll call someone.Copy !req
193. They'll see.Copy !req
194. Oh, my God, Ed.Copy !req
195. It's just like the movie.Copy !req
196. The movie I was
watching this morning.Copy !req
197. With the guy
all tied up.Copy !req
198. The Gerhardt,
on the TV.Copy !req
199. There was this...
There was this couple.Copy !req
200. This French...
And they were on the run.Copy !req
201. From the Nazi...Copy !req
202. And the husband,
or whatever he was,Copy !req
203. he got shot,
just like you.Copy !req
204. But then they
hid out in this...Copy !req
205. Well, it wasn't
a supermarket,
it was a farmhouse,Copy !req
206. but they hid out,Copy !req
207. and the Nazi tried
to smoke 'em out.
Just like this.Copy !req
208. But they got out!Copy !req
209. Ed, they got out.Copy !req
210. They were saved!Copy !req
211. Ed.Copy !req
212. Ed? Ed!Copy !req
213. No! Ed?Copy !req
214. Ed!Copy !req
215. No.Copy !req
216. Peggy! It's okay.
It's okay.Copy !req
217. It's me. It's me.
Where is he?Copy !req
218. Where is he?
It's okay.Copy !req
219. I'll kill him!
No, no, no. He's gone.Copy !req
220. No, you're lying to me!
He's gone.Copy !req
221. Put this down!
No, no! You stay back!Copy !req
222. Where is he?
Where is the Indian?Copy !req
223. Where is he?
He tried to smoke us out!
Stop.Copy !req
224. Just like in the movie!
Peggy, there's no smoke!Copy !req
225. No! No.
There's no smoke.Copy !req
226. We need to check on Ed.
He's shot. He's shot!Copy !req
227. He's shot and the Indian,
where is he?Copy !req
228. He tried to light a fire,
just like in the movie!Copy !req
229. Just like in the movie!Copy !req
230. Where is he?Copy !req
231. Peggy.
Where's the Indian?Copy !req
232. Just look at me.
Okay...Copy !req
233. He lit a fire.
No, the Indian
got away, okay?Copy !req
234. We followed Ed's
blood trail, okay?Copy !req
235. Kicked in the door. Us.Copy !req
236. No, he's here.
The Indian was never
in the building.Copy !req
237. No. He was.
No.Copy !req
238. Ed'll tell you. Ed.Copy !req
239. Ed! Ed!Copy !req
240. Come on, Ed, we're saved.Copy !req
241. Ed, they're here!Copy !req
242. We're rescued. Ed!Copy !req
243. Ed? Ed!Copy !req
244. Come on, Ed.Copy !req
245. There's a manhunt
underway for our man.Copy !req
246. He won't get far.Copy !req
247. Local PD says your
father-in-law's
in the ICU.Copy !req
248. "Cautiously optimistic"
is the report.Copy !req
249. What about your boss?Copy !req
250. I don't even know
how to write this thing up.Copy !req
251. Where to begin.Copy !req
252. Well, like anything,
I guess.Copy !req
253. You know, start at the start
and work your way to the end.Copy !req
254. Okay, then.Copy !req
255. You're gonna be okay.Copy !req
256. I'm gonna take Peggy Blumquist
back to Minnesota.Copy !req
257. Anyone's got a problem
with that...Copy !req
258. Well, after the week
I've had, they can
keep it to themselves.Copy !req
259. Mmm.Copy !req
260. Morning.Copy !req
261. Is Lou back?
No.Copy !req
262. So...Copy !req
263. Is it...Copy !req
264. Do you feel it?Copy !req
265. Feel what?Copy !req
266. My aunt lost her
bosom to cancer.Copy !req
267. Said it felt like somebody
took a hot poker and
put it through her heart.Copy !req
268. No. Not like that.Copy !req
269. Not yet.Copy !req
270. You know how sometimes
you get a peach from
the bowl and one side isCopy !req
271. ripe and yellow,
and the other is
black and moldy?Copy !req
272. That's the only way
I can think to describe it.Copy !req
273. Camus says knowing
we're gonna die
makes life absurd.Copy !req
274. Well, I don't know
who that is,Copy !req
275. but I'm guessing
he doesn't have
a six-year-old girl.Copy !req
276. He's French.Copy !req
277. I don't care if
he's from Mars.Copy !req
278. Nobody with any sense would
say something that foolish.Copy !req
279. We're put on this Earth
to do a job,Copy !req
280. and each of us gets
the time we get to do it.Copy !req
281. And when
this life is overCopy !req
282. and you stand
in front of the Lord...Copy !req
283. Well, you try telling Him
it was all some
Frenchman's joke.Copy !req
284. Do you think...Copy !req
285. Is there any chance
I could be tried federal?Copy !req
286. Why?Copy !req
287. I thought, well,
maybe I could serve
my time in California.Copy !req
288. There was this news
report on the TVCopy !req
289. about how there's
this penitentiaryCopy !req
290. just north of San Francisco
that looks out on the bay?Copy !req
291. Doesn't that sound nice?Copy !req
292. Maybe see a pelican.Copy !req
293. We'll see what we can do.Copy !req
294. I was there at the end,
you know.Copy !req
295. After the war,
when Saigon fell.Copy !req
296. On the USS Kirk,
patrolling the coast.Copy !req
297. And when the country went,
it went fast.Copy !req
298. And we had, like, you know,
24 hours to get everybody out.Copy !req
299. But not just Americans,
but our allies,
the South Vietnamese.Copy !req
300. All packed onto
boats and helicopters.Copy !req
301. We stood on the deck
and waved them in.Copy !req
302. One by one,
they'd land, unload,Copy !req
303. and then we'd push
the whirlybirds into the sea.Copy !req
304. Damnedest thing.Copy !req
305. But then this Chinook comes,
and those things...Copy !req
306. Well, you just can't land one
on a ship this size.Copy !req
307. So we wave him off.Copy !req
308. But the pilot's got
his whole family inside,Copy !req
309. and he's running out of fuel,
so it's now or never.Copy !req
310. So he hovers
over the deck.Copy !req
311. People start jumping,Copy !req
312. scared or not,
onto the ship.Copy !req
313. There was a baby.Copy !req
314. Literally,
a tiny baby.Copy !req
315. And the mother just...Copy !req
316. Just drops him.Copy !req
317. And one of my boys...Copy !req
318. Like catching a ball...Copy !req
319. He just sticks out
his hands...Copy !req
320. So, now,
everybody's out,Copy !req
321. and I'm thinking how the heck
is this pilot, right,
how's he gonna get out?Copy !req
322. But he maneuvers
off the port bowCopy !req
323. and he hovers there
for the longest time doing,Copy !req
324. you know,
what we learn later,Copy !req
325. uh, taking off
his flight suit.Copy !req
326. And somehow he rolls
the bird on its side,Copy !req
327. and just before it
hits the water, he jumps.Copy !req
328. Six thousand pounds,Copy !req
329. angry helicopter parts
flying all around him.Copy !req
330. And somehow
he makes it.Copy !req
331. How'd he do that?Copy !req
332. What are you saying?Copy !req
333. Your husband.Copy !req
334. He said he was gonna
protect his family
no matter what,Copy !req
335. and I acted like
I didn't understand,Copy !req
336. but I do.Copy !req
337. It's the rock
we all push, men.Copy !req
338. We call it
our burden, but...Copy !req
339. It's really our privilege.Copy !req
340. I never meant for
any of this to happen.Copy !req
341. You know?Copy !req
342. Not to Ed.Copy !req
343. Not to anybody.Copy !req
344. I just wanted
to be someone.Copy !req
345. Well, you're
somebody now.Copy !req
346. No. See,Copy !req
347. I wanted to choose.Copy !req
348. Be my own me.Copy !req
349. Not be defined by
someone else's expectations...Copy !req
350. And then that guy...
That stupid guy!Copy !req
351. Walked out into the...Copy !req
352. Why did he
have to do that?Copy !req
353. You mean the victim?Copy !req
354. No. That's not fair.Copy !req
355. 'Cause I'm a victim, too.Copy !req
356. Was a victim first.Copy !req
357. Before him.
Victim of what?Copy !req
358. Well, it's...Copy !req
359. You wouldn't understand,
you're a man.Copy !req
360. It's a lie, okay?Copy !req
361. That you can do it all.Copy !req
362. Be a wife, and a mother,
and this self-made
career woman...Copy !req
363. Like there's
37 hours in a day.Copy !req
364. And then, when you can't,
they say it's you.Copy !req
365. You're faulty.Copy !req
366. Like...Copy !req
367. Like...Copy !req
368. Like you are
inferior somehow.Copy !req
369. And then, like, if you could
just get your act togetherCopy !req
370. until you're
half-mad with...Copy !req
371. People are dead, Peggy.Copy !req
372. Stay put.Copy !req
373. Solverson residence.Copy !req
374. Oh, thank God.Copy !req
375. Who is this? Noreen?Copy !req
376. Is that you,
Mr. Solverson?
Yeah.Copy !req
377. We've been trying to...Copy !req
378. I mean, all night
we've been calling,Copy !req
379. and the operator didn't
know where you were...Copy !req
380. What happened?
Well, it's...Copy !req
381. She's fine...Copy !req
382. Just had a...Copy !req
383. Well, she fell,
is all.Copy !req
384. Something about
the pills they gave her.Copy !req
385. What do you mean,
she fell?Copy !req
386. Where's Molly?
She's here. At home.Copy !req
387. We all are.Copy !req
388. Your missus is sleeping
and the girl right there
with her.Copy !req
389. She's stubborn all right,
your daughter.Copy !req
390. Your wife says she
gets that from you.Copy !req
391. But the doctor...
He says your missus is fine.Copy !req
392. Just needs rest and then
to come in next week
for some more tests.Copy !req
393. She's sleeping currently.Copy !req
394. I told her
I'd sit up with Molly
until you got home.Copy !req
395. Okay, well, uh,Copy !req
396. I got a suspect
in custody.Copy !req
397. On my way back from
Sioux Falls, so, uh...Copy !req
398. Tell Betsy I'll be home
soon as I can.
Okeydoke.Copy !req
399. And, Noreen?Copy !req
400. Thank you.
You betcha.Copy !req
401. And so, great empires fall
and are forgotten.Copy !req
402. You're thinking,
why Tripoli?Copy !req
403. Well, Tripoli,
not to be confused
with Levantine TripoliCopy !req
404. in the country
of Lebanon,Copy !req
405. was founded in Libya
in the seventh century
by the Phoenicians.Copy !req
406. Then was conquered
by the Romans.Copy !req
407. And then by the Spanish
and then by the Turks.Copy !req
408. You see where I'm going.Copy !req
409. I need a face man.Copy !req
410. His details are inside.Copy !req
411. I'm assuming you want
more than just a skin peel.Copy !req
412. Something structural...Copy !req
413. A whole new man.Copy !req
414. Like the phoenix,
rising from the ashes.Copy !req
415. What'll you do then,
I wonder.Copy !req
416. Join a new empire?Copy !req
417. Maybe start
one of my own.Copy !req
418. So that it, too,Copy !req
419. may one day collapse
and fall into the sea.Copy !req
420. Do I take it you'll
try to get revenge
on Kansas City?Copy !req
421. Apprehend those
responsible?Copy !req
422. 'Cause you can bet Kansas City
will be heavily guarded.Copy !req
423. Not apprehend.Copy !req
424. Dead.Copy !req
425. Don't care
"heavily guarded."Copy !req
426. Don't care
"into the sea."Copy !req
427. Kill and be killed.Copy !req
428. Head in a bag.Copy !req
429. Drop 'em down.Copy !req
430. Put 'em down.Copy !req
431. Dummy!Copy !req
432. Look, you did good.Copy !req
433. I had my doubts,
but, uh, you really
brought this thing home.Copy !req
434. I had a few breaks.
Don't do that.Copy !req
435. Take praise and turn it
into something else.Copy !req
436. You're right.
I'm sorry.Copy !req
437. And don't apologize.Copy !req
438. You still got a few
rungs left to climb.Copy !req
439. You're not gonna get there
saying you're sorry.Copy !req
440. Got it.
Thank you, sir.Copy !req
441. I did.Copy !req
442. I worked hard night and day
to get this done,Copy !req
443. I don't mind
telling you.Copy !req
444. Which is why I was thinking,
for this setup in Fargo,Copy !req
445. I'd like to handpick
a few men...Copy !req
446. No, no, no.
That's the day-to-day stuff.Copy !req
447. We got a team for that.Copy !req
448. Asset managers,
mid-level and below.
Drones, really.Copy !req
449. They've already been
deployed.Copy !req
450. The real oversight of the new
northern territories...Copy !req
451. Well, that happens right here,
in this building.Copy !req
452. Which is where
you want me.Copy !req
453. Assuming you don't wanna be
a grunt your entire life.Copy !req
454. No. Of course not.Copy !req
455. Good.
Then pay attention.Copy !req
456. It's 9:00 to 5:00 mostly,
but management rewards
initiative,Copy !req
457. so, nights, weekends,
whatever gets the job done.Copy !req
458. You'll be working
closely with the, uh,
accounting department,Copy !req
459. looking for ways to
optimize revenue.Copy !req
460. Shorter shipping routes,
less palms to grease,
that kind of thing.Copy !req
461. The accounting
department.Copy !req
462. Yeah, and this whole,
uh, Western thing.
That's gotta go.Copy !req
463. Get something gray or
pinstriped with a white shirt,
a real tie.Copy !req
464. And cut your hair,
okay?Copy !req
465. The '70s are over,
for Christ's sake.Copy !req
466. See, I thought, well...Copy !req
467. In the old days,
when a guy
conquered a place...Copy !req
468. You want the old days?Copy !req
469. Go work in a coal mine.Copy !req
470. This is the future.Copy !req
471. Look, you and I got off
on the wrong foot,Copy !req
472. but you seem like a good kid,
so let me give you a tip.Copy !req
473. The sooner you realize
there's only one business
left in the world...Copy !req
474. The money business,
just ones and zeros,Copy !req
475. the better off
you're gonna be.Copy !req
476. Sir, believe me,
I'm an earner.Copy !req
477. Yeah, yeah,
but listen to me,Copy !req
478. I'm not talking about
busting heads for collections.Copy !req
479. I'm talking about
profit and loss...Copy !req
480. Infrastructure.Copy !req
481. See,Copy !req
482. last year, Donahue in
the western branch...Copy !req
483. He rejiggered
the mail room,Copy !req
484. ended up saving a million
a quarter in postage.Copy !req
485. Now, management was
so impressedCopy !req
486. they gave him
California.Copy !req
487. The mail room?
Yeah.Copy !req
488. Why didn't I think
of that, right?Copy !req
489. Uh, anyway, settle in.Copy !req
490. Dale from HR's gonna
come by with a few forms
for you to fill out,Copy !req
491. health insurance, 401k...Copy !req
492. And then, uh,
get to work.Copy !req
493. Quarterly projections
and revenue statements
are due on the 13th.Copy !req
494. We're expecting
big things from you.Copy !req
495. Oh, uh...Copy !req
496. You play golf?Copy !req
497. Golf?Copy !req
498. It's a great game.
You should learn.Copy !req
499. That's where all the deals
are being done these days.Copy !req
500. Look who I found.Copy !req
501. Poppa!Copy !req
502. Ow!
Careful, careful now.Copy !req
503. Give your poppa
some room.Copy !req
504. No, no.
Okay.Copy !req
505. This is just
the medicine I need.Copy !req
506. Well, you okay then?Copy !req
507. You need to lie down?
Nah.Copy !req
508. No.
No?Copy !req
509. I'll take a beer though,
if you got one.Copy !req
510. Lou?
Hell, yes.Copy !req
511. I mean, "heck." Heck.Copy !req
512. I think we earned
one or 10.Copy !req
513. Hey, Sheriff.Copy !req
514. Noreen.Copy !req
515. Heard you're, uh,
running the place now.
Oh...Copy !req
516. It's mostly just
babysitting and laundry.Copy !req
517. She's been a real
lifesaver.Copy !req
518. Come on, squirt.Copy !req
519. Let's get your
party dress on.Copy !req
520. See you in
the funny papers.Copy !req
521. Well...Copy !req
522. More pie, Dad?Copy !req
523. Not unless you want me
to burst my stitches.Copy !req
524. So...Copy !req
525. You gonna put that
in your report then?Copy !req
526. What?
Gunfight interrupted
by a spacecraft?Copy !req
527. Yeah, maybe leave
that subtext.Copy !req
528. And this Hanzee fella?Copy !req
529. Uh...Copy !req
530. Made the FBI's
Most Wanted.Copy !req
531. First one of those I worked,
but so far, nothing.Copy !req
532. Probably fled the border
to Winnipeg or Points North.Copy !req
533. Yeah.
He'll show up again,
I'm sure...Copy !req
534. Like it or not.Copy !req
535. You okay, hon?
Yeah, sure.Copy !req
536. It's just a cramp.Copy !req
537. We're a sad bunch, huh?Copy !req
538. Next thing, Lou will be
grouching about his sciatica.Copy !req
539. Yeah.Copy !req
540. Well, we're sitting
here together.Copy !req
541. That's what matters.Copy !req
542. A man once said,Copy !req
543. "You'll know the angels
when they come,Copy !req
544. "cause they'll have
the faces of your children."Copy !req
545. Anyway.
Um...Copy !req
546. Just happy to
see you is all, Bet.Copy !req
547. So, Dad,
I fed your cats while
you were in the hospital.Copy !req
548. And they're grateful,
I'm sure.
Yeah.Copy !req
549. And when I went over there
the first time...Copy !req
550. I went in your office.Copy !req
551. Ah...Copy !req
552. So, uh...Copy !req
553. Well, okay.Copy !req
554. So...Copy !req
555. After your mother died,
I got to feeling pretty low.Copy !req
556. We all did.Copy !req
557. And I took...
Well, you remember,
I took some time off.Copy !req
558. And I started thinking...Copy !req
559. Which I know
is dangerous...Copy !req
560. But, you know,Copy !req
561. the things I've seen...Copy !req
562. In the war,Copy !req
563. and at home,
on the job...Copy !req
564. So much
senselessness.Copy !req
565. Violence, you know?
And I got
to thinking about...Copy !req
566. About miscommunication.Copy !req
567. Like how, isn't that
the root of it?Copy !req
568. Conflict, war...
Doesn't it all come
down to language?Copy !req
569. Right? The words we say
and the words we hear,Copy !req
570. which aren't always
the same thing.Copy !req
571. So, I thought, you know,
what if there was
one language?Copy !req
572. A universal language
of symbols,
'cause pictures,Copy !req
573. to my mind,
are clearer than words.Copy !req
574. So, that's what that is?Copy !req
575. In your office.Copy !req
576. You're making
your own language.Copy !req
577. Well, it sounds crazy
when you say it out loud,
I know.Copy !req
578. But...Copy !req
579. You know, when we see
a box with a roof on it,Copy !req
580. well, everyone knows
that means home.Copy !req
581. You know, and my
six-year-old granddaughter,
she draws a heart.Copy !req
582. It means love.
No question.Copy !req
583. Anyway.Copy !req
584. That's where I started,
you know, with simple ideas,Copy !req
585. and the more
I worked on it,Copy !req
586. the more it became
all I could think about.Copy !req
587. You're a good man.Copy !req
588. Well, I don't know
about that,Copy !req
589. but I like to think
I got good intentions.Copy !req
590. What do you say
tomorrow we go fishing?Copy !req
591. Okay.Copy !req
592. Get some sleep, you.Copy !req
593. Good night,
Mr. Solverson.Copy !req
594. Good night,
Mrs. Solverson.Copy !req
595. And all the ships
at sea.Copy !req
