Pop: Look at you.
44
00:01:33,003 --> 00:01:34,813
Adult mark: The very mention
of his name would send dad
45
00:01:34,837 --> 00:01:37,638
Into a tizzy and so...
His name was never mentioned.
46
00:01:37,674 --> 00:01:39,317
Pop: Have you lost weight
47
00:01:39,341 --> 00:01:41,653
Or is it just your brother
that's getting fatter?
48
00:01:41,677 --> 00:01:43,644
Brendan: Oh. [laughs]
49
00:01:43,680 --> 00:01:45,323

a way with words. [chuckles]

Where are you these days?

Place to crash for the night.
72
00:02:29,393 --> 00:02:31,558
- Uh, there's vacancy
at the skyline motel.
73
00:02:31,594 --> 00:02:33,506
- Uncle brendan can stay
in my room with me.

about all the girls

This calls for a toast.
You got any liquor, brother?
77
00:02:40,836 --> 00:02:42,836

in church.

rum in the trunk in my room.
