(MEN WHOOPING)
2
00:00:03,871 --> 00:00:08,176
Hey! You take back
what you said about my brother!
3
00:00:08,242 --> 00:00:11,879
I do believe this boy
is peeved at us, Bert.
4
00:00:11,945 --> 00:00:14,182
Yeah, well, don't blame us
'cause your brother's a chicken.
5
00:00:14,248 --> 00:00:16,150
You have no right to say that.
6
00:00:16,217 --> 00:00:19,187
-Yeah, who's gonna stop us?
-I am!
7
00:00:19,253 --> 00:00:21,989
Come on, boy,
you show us how brave you are.
8
00:00:22,056 --> 00:00:24,192
Put up or shut up, squirt!

00:01:54,982 --> 00:01:56,884
JOHN-BOY: The weeks that
followed the sneak attack
10
00:01:56,950 --> 00:01:59,353
on Pearl Harbor
affected our family deeply.
11
00:01:59,420 --> 00:02:02,790
It was a time of great anxiety
and uncertainty.
12
00:02:02,856 --> 00:02:05,859
And like all Americans,
we wanted to contribute
13
00:02:05,926 --> 00:02:08,429
to the war effort
as best we could.
14
00:02:08,496 --> 00:02:11,098
My brother, Jason, was
particularly troubled
15
00:02:11,165 --> 00:02:13,133
during this time.
16
00:02:13,201 --> 00:02:14,868
He wanted to serve his country,
17
00:02:14,935 --> 00:02:18,172
but doubts of conscience forced
himto face one of the most
18
00:02:18,239 --> 00:02:19,540
difficult decisions
of his life.
19
00:02:19,607 --> 00:02:21,542
You're making a big mistake,
Jason.
20
00:02:21,609 --> 00:02:24,812
-I still haven't decided.
-You can't keep putting it off.
21
00:02:24,878 --> 00:02:27,615
You won't get drafted right now
because you've served your time
22
00:02:27,681 --> 00:02:30,784
in the Guard, but that could
change in a hurry.
23
00:02:30,851 --> 00:02:32,220
I know.
24
00:02:32,286 --> 00:02:33,921
Our whole outfit
is regular Army now.
25
00:02:33,987 --> 00:02:35,556
A lot of your buddies
are asking about you.
26
00:02:35,623 --> 00:02:37,658
You'd be a cinch
to get sergeant stripes,
27
00:02:37,725 --> 00:02:40,160
then go on to OCS,
the way I did.
28
00:02:40,228 --> 00:02:42,796
But you've finished college
already.
29
00:02:42,863 --> 00:02:44,565
I have to think about it.
30
00:02:44,632 --> 00:02:48,202
I just wanted you to know,
we'd like to have you with us.
31
00:02:50,304 --> 00:02:52,406
I'll call you.
32
00:02:52,473 --> 00:02:53,774
Thanks for coming by.
Good luck.
33
00:03:03,284 --> 00:03:04,818
Remember, time's a-wasting.
34
00:03:08,956 --> 00:03:10,391
Take care, Billy.
35
00:03:23,437 --> 00:03:25,773
What did you tell Billy?
36
00:03:25,839 --> 00:03:27,475
I told him I needed
some more time.
37
00:03:27,541 --> 00:03:29,477
Would it help to talk about it?
38
00:03:29,543 --> 00:03:32,546
Yes, it would. But right now
I've got a class to make.
39
00:03:32,613 --> 00:03:35,249
Somehow, school doesn't seem
very important these days.
40
00:03:35,316 --> 00:03:38,519
You're so close to finishing,
it'd be a shame if you didn't.
41
00:03:38,586 --> 00:03:42,290
I so feel guilty when I hear
about the guys in my outfit.
42
00:03:42,356 --> 00:03:44,458
Might be good to serve
with your friends.
43
00:03:44,525 --> 00:03:46,226
I guess it would.
44
00:03:46,294 --> 00:03:49,630
I've got to get going.
See you later.
45
00:03:49,697 --> 00:03:52,633
Should he give up everything
now to be with his friends?
46
00:03:52,700 --> 00:03:54,234
He'd be with men he knows.
47
00:03:54,302 --> 00:03:56,937
Makes a difference who you're
with in the service, Liv.
48
00:03:57,004 --> 00:03:58,506
Let's just don't push him.
49
00:03:58,572 --> 00:04:01,509
I'm having enough trouble with
John-Boy joining up in England.
50
00:04:01,575 --> 00:04:05,012
Being a reporter isn't the same
as being a foot soldier.
51
00:04:05,078 --> 00:04:08,649
Reporting on a war means
being in the line of fire.
52
00:04:08,716 --> 00:04:11,251
If that's not bad enough,
I expect Jim-Bob to come home
53
00:04:11,319 --> 00:04:13,821
and say he's joined
the Air Corps.
54
00:04:13,887 --> 00:04:16,624
They won't take him yet,
so take it easy.
55
00:04:16,690 --> 00:04:18,459
Ben's still here, we've got
enough government contracts
56
00:04:18,526 --> 00:04:20,328
-to last us a long time.
-He's getting impatient.
57
00:04:20,394 --> 00:04:23,096
All he ever talks
about now is the Navy.
58
00:04:23,163 --> 00:04:27,868
Let's face it, Liv. There's a
war, that means men, young men.
59
00:04:27,935 --> 00:04:30,771
I listen to the radio
and I read the newspapers.
60
00:04:30,838 --> 00:04:33,541
But these are our sons
we're talking about.
61
00:04:45,052 --> 00:04:47,855
No, that is not it.
62
00:04:47,921 --> 00:04:51,659
Oh, here, let me do it.
63
00:04:51,725 --> 00:04:54,261
There. Now, that is the way
it should be.
64
00:04:54,328 --> 00:04:56,564
That is where I had it
to begin with.
65
00:04:56,630 --> 00:04:59,800
Mr. Godsey, you simply
lack the artistic touch.
66
00:04:59,867 --> 00:05:00,868
(DOOR OPENING)
67
00:05:01,935 --> 00:05:04,104
Hey, Ike, Corabeth.
68
00:05:04,171 --> 00:05:07,040
You're just in time to see, we
put John-Boy's name up there.
69
00:05:07,107 --> 00:05:09,009
Looks good, sure does.
70
00:05:09,076 --> 00:05:10,978
It won't be long before we'll
be adding your name up there.
71
00:05:11,044 --> 00:05:13,080
I don't know how soon
it will be.
72
00:05:13,146 --> 00:05:17,351
Don't wait too long.
Army needs young men like you.
73
00:05:17,418 --> 00:05:19,052
Here's a dollar for the gas,
Ike.
74
00:05:19,119 --> 00:05:22,423
I'm just so proud of all our
fine young men in the service.
75
00:05:22,490 --> 00:05:25,459
I just pray we don't
lose any more boys.
76
00:05:25,526 --> 00:05:28,862
Yeah. Still hurts when we think
of G.W. and Curt.
77
00:05:28,929 --> 00:05:32,666
I've got to be getting
to school. See you later.
78
00:05:32,733 --> 00:05:33,867
Bye.
79
00:05:36,604 --> 00:05:39,873
Boy, he'll be in the service
in no time.
80
00:05:39,940 --> 00:05:41,975
Don't be so certain.
81
00:05:42,042 --> 00:05:43,977
He's so sensitive.
82
00:05:45,579 --> 00:05:48,682
I just can't think of Jason
as a warrior.
83
00:05:55,088 --> 00:05:57,458
I sure am sorry, Walton.
84
00:05:57,525 --> 00:05:59,627
But the regulations
haven't changed.
85
00:05:59,693 --> 00:06:01,495
Without you getting permission
from your parents,
86
00:06:01,562 --> 00:06:03,697
you're still too young
to join the Air Corps.
87
00:06:03,764 --> 00:06:05,065
I'm getting tired of waiting.
88
00:06:05,132 --> 00:06:08,035
I admire your spirit,
but rules are rules.
89
00:06:08,101 --> 00:06:10,938
Yeah, but I'm ready
to join the fight right now.
90
00:06:11,004 --> 00:06:12,740
You know, so am I.
91
00:06:12,806 --> 00:06:15,308
But I'm close to retirement,
so they've got me running
92
00:06:15,375 --> 00:06:18,111
a recruiting office, instead of
doing what I was trained for.
93
00:06:18,178 --> 00:06:20,047
-What was that?
-Cavalry.
94
00:06:20,113 --> 00:06:23,216
Served in France.
Been a horse soldier ever since.
95
00:06:23,283 --> 00:06:25,218
Well, up till now, that is.
96
00:06:25,285 --> 00:06:27,254
But at least I'm doing my part.
97
00:06:27,320 --> 00:06:30,190
-I'm sure not.
-You will, Walton.
98
00:06:30,257 --> 00:06:33,193
I got a feeling you're gonna
make a good pilot
99
00:06:33,260 --> 00:06:35,028
and we're gonna need them.
100
00:06:35,095 --> 00:06:37,798
You come see me
on your birthday.
101
00:06:37,865 --> 00:06:39,099
Yes, sir.
102
00:06:58,018 --> 00:07:01,021
(MACHINE BUZZING)
103
00:07:40,928 --> 00:07:43,396
Sergeant Gates said
I'd make a good pilot.
104
00:07:43,463 --> 00:07:46,266
Recruiting officer will say
anything to keep you interested.
105
00:07:46,333 --> 00:07:50,103
No, he was nice. He didn't talk
to me like I was a dumb kid.
106
00:07:50,170 --> 00:07:52,906
If it wasn't for that rule,
I'd be in right now.
107
00:07:52,973 --> 00:07:54,708
And Mama wouldn't be talking
to you.
108
00:07:54,775 --> 00:07:58,646
I wouldn't be where
she could talk to me.
109
00:07:58,712 --> 00:08:01,114
I'm thinking about the Navy.
110
00:08:01,181 --> 00:08:04,484
-Daddy needs you right here.
-Anybody could do what I do.
111
00:08:04,552 --> 00:08:08,055
-I wanna get in with the action.
-Why are you so anxious to go?
112
00:08:08,121 --> 00:08:09,456
There's a war on, Jason.
113
00:08:09,523 --> 00:08:11,925
Don't you feel uncomfortable
when you're not in uniform?
114
00:08:11,992 --> 00:08:14,962
Sure I do, but that's not reason
enough to rush out
115
00:08:15,028 --> 00:08:16,930
and put one on.
116
00:08:16,997 --> 00:08:19,499
Gonna be joining up
with the old outfit?
117
00:08:19,567 --> 00:08:21,501
I'm not sure yet.
118
00:08:21,569 --> 00:08:24,271
You're crazy not
to join now, Jason.
119
00:08:24,337 --> 00:08:27,608
I'm the one who's facing
going right now, Jim-Bob.
120
00:08:27,675 --> 00:08:29,009
Not you or Ben.
121
00:08:32,813 --> 00:08:35,749
-What's wrong with him?
-Beats me.
122
00:08:41,354 --> 00:08:42,923
What are you up to?
123
00:08:42,990 --> 00:08:45,826
Just reading
an old book of poetry.
124
00:08:45,893 --> 00:08:49,663
It's funny, when I was in school
I didn't like poetry much.
125
00:08:49,730 --> 00:08:52,265
It seems to have more meaning
for me now.
126
00:08:52,332 --> 00:08:55,268
It's kind of like music
when something gets you down.
127
00:08:57,638 --> 00:09:00,173
What did you want
to talk to me about?
128
00:09:00,240 --> 00:09:02,910
What's on your mind?
129
00:09:02,976 --> 00:09:04,945
The war.
130
00:09:05,012 --> 00:09:08,448
War's on everybody's mind.
131
00:09:08,515 --> 00:09:11,051
I've been
really confused lately,
132
00:09:11,118 --> 00:09:14,054
wondering whether
to join up now or wait.
133
00:09:14,121 --> 00:09:15,856
Don't do anything
until you have to.
134
00:09:15,923 --> 00:09:18,258
I kind of feel like
I have a responsibility
135
00:09:18,325 --> 00:09:20,761
to get in on the fight.
136
00:09:20,828 --> 00:09:22,663
You sound just like Curt.
137
00:09:22,730 --> 00:09:26,600
I've been thinking
a lot about Curt lately.
138
00:09:26,667 --> 00:09:28,936
Our family's
sacrificed enough already.
139
00:09:29,002 --> 00:09:32,539
I don't want any of my brothers
going off to war.
140
00:09:32,606 --> 00:09:35,142
Most men my age
don't have any choice.
141
00:09:35,208 --> 00:09:38,646
Don't join, Jason.
We need you here at home.
142
00:09:44,151 --> 00:09:47,054
It's not just the joining up
that's bothering me.
143
00:09:52,760 --> 00:09:54,828
Mary Ellen,
144
00:09:54,895 --> 00:09:57,497
I don't know if I can kill
another human being,
145
00:09:57,564 --> 00:09:59,833
not even for my country.
146
00:10:20,287 --> 00:10:25,158
(KNOCKING AT DOOR)
147
00:10:25,225 --> 00:10:28,896
Jim-Bob, have you seen
my dictionary?
148
00:10:28,962 --> 00:10:31,799
-What have you done to yourself?
-Nothing. Stop sneaking.
149
00:10:31,865 --> 00:10:34,401
I'm not sneaking! Let me see!
Come on, let me see!
150
00:10:35,869 --> 00:10:38,638
Oh, what is that awful thing
on your arm?
151
00:10:38,706 --> 00:10:41,274
-It's an Army Air Corps tattoo.
-It's ugly.
152
00:10:41,341 --> 00:10:42,943
It is not. I like it.
153
00:10:43,010 --> 00:10:44,978
That's the stupidest thing
you've ever done.
154
00:10:45,045 --> 00:10:47,547
-I'm proud of it.
-Well, you better be.
155
00:10:47,614 --> 00:10:51,051
'Cause you're gonna have to live
with it the rest of your life.
156
00:10:51,118 --> 00:10:53,854
-Mama's going to disown you.
-You better not tell her, Erin.
157
00:10:53,921 --> 00:10:55,588
I won't tell her.
158
00:10:55,655 --> 00:10:58,125
How long do you think you can
keep that a secret?
159
00:10:58,191 --> 00:11:00,928
Till I get in the Air Corps.
Wanna see it move?
160
00:11:00,994 --> 00:11:03,030
Oh, Jim-Bob, that's revolting!
161
00:11:03,096 --> 00:11:05,899
-Guys are gonna love it.
-The girls are gonna hate it.
162
00:11:05,966 --> 00:11:08,435
-Not all girls are like you.
-Nice ones are.
163
00:11:27,587 --> 00:11:29,022
Where are you off to?
164
00:11:29,089 --> 00:11:30,958
I've been wanting
to go up there lately.
165
00:11:31,024 --> 00:11:32,993
Lonesome for the mountain.
166
00:11:33,060 --> 00:11:36,529
I know how you feel.
Mind if I join you?
167
00:11:36,596 --> 00:11:38,732
Let's get a front row seat.
168
00:11:57,450 --> 00:12:00,120
You followed me here,
didn't you?
169
00:12:00,187 --> 00:12:02,923
It was what you said last night.
170
00:12:02,990 --> 00:12:06,359
It's not easy to talk about,
with anyone.
171
00:12:06,426 --> 00:12:08,695
You shouldn't feel that way,
Jason.
172
00:12:08,762 --> 00:12:10,397
I talked
to the hospital chaplain.
173
00:12:10,463 --> 00:12:12,499
He opened my eyes
to a lot of things.
174
00:12:12,565 --> 00:12:15,002
Did he say there was something
wrong with me?
175
00:12:15,068 --> 00:12:17,304
He had no idea
who I was talking about.
176
00:12:17,370 --> 00:12:20,107
He said that anyone who feels
the way you do is
177
00:12:20,173 --> 00:12:23,576
just a little more sensitive
and honest than the rest of us.
178
00:12:23,643 --> 00:12:27,714
All my life I've been taught
that killing is wrong.
179
00:12:27,781 --> 00:12:32,820
I don't know if I can change
now, or even if I want to.
180
00:12:32,886 --> 00:12:35,222
"Thou shalt not kill."
181
00:12:35,288 --> 00:12:37,190
Those aren't just words to me.
182
00:12:37,257 --> 00:12:39,326
You don't have to change, Jason.
183
00:12:39,392 --> 00:12:41,561
You can do your part
without killing.
184
00:12:41,628 --> 00:12:43,897
The Army doesn't work like that.
185
00:12:43,964 --> 00:12:48,168
A soldier has one purpose,
to kill the enemy.
186
00:12:48,235 --> 00:12:49,736
We've all been
taught that killing
187
00:12:49,803 --> 00:12:52,405
is totally against God's plan.
188
00:12:52,472 --> 00:12:53,874
That's true.
189
00:12:53,941 --> 00:12:55,909
But I can't deny
the fact that sometimes
190
00:12:55,976 --> 00:12:58,545
we have to fight to survive.
191
00:12:58,611 --> 00:13:02,215
Doesn't make much sense,
does it?
192
00:13:02,282 --> 00:13:04,084
The chaplain said that there's
193
00:13:04,151 --> 00:13:06,286
a law called
the conscience clause.
194
00:13:06,353 --> 00:13:09,089
It exempts men from carrying
a weapon if he can prove
195
00:13:09,156 --> 00:13:11,091
that his moral and religious
beliefs
196
00:13:11,158 --> 00:13:13,593
are too strong
to justify killing.
197
00:13:13,660 --> 00:13:16,063
I know.
198
00:13:16,129 --> 00:13:20,467
But I also know how people
look on conscientious objectors.
199
00:13:20,533 --> 00:13:24,404
The ones in work camps take a
lot of abuse from the public,
200
00:13:24,471 --> 00:13:27,674
and those in uniform get
sneered at by the troops,
201
00:13:27,740 --> 00:13:30,143
even though they work as medics
202
00:13:30,210 --> 00:13:33,446
or ambulance drivers right there
in the combat zone.
203
00:13:33,513 --> 00:13:36,049
Thought we were supposed to be
fighting for freedom of thought,
204
00:13:36,116 --> 00:13:37,784
among other things.
205
00:13:37,851 --> 00:13:40,453
You have to sacrifice a lot
of freedoms in wartime.
206
00:13:42,689 --> 00:13:45,158
It's just so hard to prove
you're really sincere
207
00:13:45,225 --> 00:13:47,360
about something like this.
208
00:13:47,427 --> 00:13:49,096
You have a good reputation,
Jason.
209
00:13:49,162 --> 00:13:51,098
Everybody would speak up
for you.
210
00:13:51,164 --> 00:13:53,666
And a lot of others
would call me a coward.
211
00:13:53,733 --> 00:13:56,970
You're not a coward.
212
00:13:57,037 --> 00:13:58,305
I wonder.
213
00:14:18,325 --> 00:14:19,492
Howdy.
214
00:14:19,559 --> 00:14:22,262
-I'm Sergeant Gates.
-Jason Walton.
215
00:14:22,329 --> 00:14:24,164
-Coffee?
-No, thanks.
216
00:14:24,231 --> 00:14:26,566
I just came
for some information.
217
00:14:26,633 --> 00:14:29,769
-Have a seat.
-Thanks.
218
00:14:29,836 --> 00:14:32,739
Walton, Walton...
219
00:14:32,805 --> 00:14:35,808
You any relation
to James Robert?
220
00:14:35,875 --> 00:14:37,610
My youngest brother.
221
00:14:37,677 --> 00:14:39,579
Spunky young man.
222
00:14:39,646 --> 00:14:42,215
Hope he doesn't do anything rash
before he's of age.
223
00:14:42,282 --> 00:14:44,584
That's how my folks feel.
224
00:14:44,651 --> 00:14:48,188
So, you want to sign up
before he beats you to it, huh?
225
00:14:48,255 --> 00:14:51,358
Well, I do want to serve
as best I can.
226
00:14:51,424 --> 00:14:55,328
But I really came
for some information
227
00:14:55,395 --> 00:14:57,597
about being
a conscientious objector.
228
00:15:07,074 --> 00:15:09,242
Do you know
what you're asking for?
229
00:15:09,309 --> 00:15:13,246
No, not really.
That's why I'm here.
230
00:15:13,313 --> 00:15:14,581
I don't think you understand
231
00:15:14,647 --> 00:15:17,150
what you're getting
yourself into.
232
00:15:17,217 --> 00:15:19,652
I mean, you're gonna
ruin your future,
233
00:15:19,719 --> 00:15:22,155
in the Army
and the rest of your life.
234
00:15:22,222 --> 00:15:24,324
I just want the information,
Sergeant.
235
00:15:24,391 --> 00:15:25,892
Do I have to go elsewhere?
236
00:15:25,959 --> 00:15:28,295
I'm just trying to help you,
Walton.
237
00:15:28,361 --> 00:15:31,698
It's supposed to be taken care
of by your local draft board.
238
00:15:40,673 --> 00:15:43,443
Now, this is a Selective Service
pamphlet.
239
00:15:43,510 --> 00:15:45,278
There's a form in it
that you apply
240
00:15:45,345 --> 00:15:48,348
for conscientious objector.
241
00:15:48,415 --> 00:15:52,752
My advice to you is,
don't use it.
242
00:15:52,819 --> 00:15:54,821
Howdy, Sergeant. You got
our induction papers yet?
243
00:15:54,887 --> 00:15:56,389
Yeah, Sarge.
We're raring to go!
244
00:15:56,456 --> 00:15:59,426
Your papers are all ready,
you just hold up a bit.
245
00:15:59,492 --> 00:16:01,228
Now, if you go through
with this,
246
00:16:01,294 --> 00:16:03,363
you're not the only one
that's gonna have a hard time.
247
00:16:03,430 --> 00:16:07,367
Your whole family
is gonna suffer.
248
00:16:07,434 --> 00:16:09,569
Can I just have the pamphlet,
Sergeant?
249
00:16:09,636 --> 00:16:12,405
You told them
about your being a CO?
250
00:16:12,472 --> 00:16:13,573
Not yet.
251
00:16:26,353 --> 00:16:28,255
With John Curtis walking,
252
00:16:28,321 --> 00:16:30,657
he doesn't wear out the knees
of his rompers so quickly.
253
00:16:30,723 --> 00:16:33,926
He'll get back to his knees
when he starts playing marbles.
254
00:16:33,993 --> 00:16:36,863
I used to have to sew patches
on Jim-Bob's patches.
255
00:16:36,929 --> 00:16:39,866
Remember how your mama
used to mend your coveralls
256
00:16:39,932 --> 00:16:41,234
after sliding into home
257
00:16:41,301 --> 00:16:43,603
or trying to stretch
a single into a double?
258
00:16:43,670 --> 00:16:45,738
Which was easier, Mama,
boys or girls?
259
00:16:45,805 --> 00:16:47,107
Neither.
260
00:16:47,174 --> 00:16:50,443
Not having children
would have been easier.
261
00:16:50,510 --> 00:16:53,780
-Another night at the Dew Drop.
-At least you get to go out.
262
00:16:53,846 --> 00:16:56,749
They only wanna hear Praise the
Lord and Pass the Ammunition.
263
00:16:56,816 --> 00:16:58,851
How about Don't Sit
Under the Apple Tree?
264
00:16:58,918 --> 00:17:01,788
That, too, but it's a job.
265
00:17:01,854 --> 00:17:04,023
Jason!
266
00:17:04,091 --> 00:17:07,360
Found this on the floor.
Is this yours?
267
00:17:07,427 --> 00:17:09,662
-What if it is?
-You're crazy! You know that?
268
00:17:09,729 --> 00:17:12,232
What's going on?
269
00:17:12,299 --> 00:17:14,701
I went to the recruiting office
today, Daddy.
270
00:17:14,767 --> 00:17:17,237
I picked up this
conscientious objector pamphlet.
271
00:17:17,304 --> 00:17:18,971
I just want to study it.
272
00:17:19,038 --> 00:17:20,640
BEN: People are gonna talk.
273
00:17:20,707 --> 00:17:22,809
MARY ELLEN: You don't know
what you're talking about.
274
00:17:22,875 --> 00:17:25,478
Nobody's given Jason
a chance to explain.
275
00:17:25,545 --> 00:17:27,980
JASON: Mama, I haven't
done anything definite yet.
276
00:17:28,047 --> 00:17:32,985
Then don't. Give yourself plenty
of time to think this out.
277
00:17:33,052 --> 00:17:35,888
Don't worry, I will.
278
00:17:35,955 --> 00:17:38,158
I've got to get going.
279
00:17:40,827 --> 00:17:43,796
You're not gonna let him
do that, are you, Daddy?
280
00:17:43,863 --> 00:17:45,498
You're more concerned
about what people are gonna say
281
00:17:45,565 --> 00:17:47,234
than about how Jason feels.
282
00:17:47,300 --> 00:17:49,502
Don't you care about what
people say about you?
283
00:17:49,569 --> 00:17:51,771
This family has suffered enough
by this war already.
284
00:17:51,838 --> 00:17:55,242
Hold it. Jason said he was gonna
think about it. Give him time.
285
00:17:55,308 --> 00:17:56,809
He'll do the right thing.
286
00:17:56,876 --> 00:18:00,147
And just what is
the right thing, John?
287
00:18:10,890 --> 00:18:14,294
Fighting among ourselves
isn't gonna help Jason any.
288
00:18:14,361 --> 00:18:19,232
He's got enough
on his mind as it is.
289
00:18:31,644 --> 00:18:34,147
It's chilly.
You want a sweater?
290
00:18:34,214 --> 00:18:35,748
No.
291
00:18:37,484 --> 00:18:40,853
I remember the night Jason was
born. It was cold like this.
292
00:18:43,156 --> 00:18:45,091
He's confused and scared, Liv.
293
00:18:45,158 --> 00:18:48,060
I just don't want him to do
something he's gonna regret.
294
00:18:48,127 --> 00:18:50,363
He'll work it out for himself.
295
00:18:50,430 --> 00:18:54,201
There are times when a man
just doesn't have a choice.
296
00:18:54,267 --> 00:18:58,171
You think it's wrong for Jason
to listen to his own feelings?
297
00:18:58,238 --> 00:18:59,639
You can't run away from yourself
298
00:18:59,706 --> 00:19:01,941
and that's just
what Jason is doing.
299
00:19:02,008 --> 00:19:05,812
-You sound so sure.
-I know what he's thinking.
300
00:19:05,878 --> 00:19:08,114
I know if he doesn't face up
to it now,
301
00:19:08,181 --> 00:19:10,550
he'll always question himself.
302
00:19:10,617 --> 00:19:13,686
I just can't let him
throw away his pride.
303
00:19:13,753 --> 00:19:17,089
His pride or yours?
304
00:19:17,156 --> 00:19:19,659
That's not fair, Liv.
305
00:19:19,726 --> 00:19:21,361
I grew up believing
there are some things
306
00:19:21,428 --> 00:19:23,363
a man doesn't question.
307
00:19:23,430 --> 00:19:25,465
Serving his country is one.
308
00:19:25,532 --> 00:19:28,335
Fighting to protect his family
is another.
309
00:19:28,401 --> 00:19:30,870
I can't change now.
310
00:19:30,937 --> 00:19:33,440
I wouldn't expect you to, John.
311
00:19:33,506 --> 00:19:36,142
I love you for being strong
and sure,
312
00:19:36,209 --> 00:19:41,013
just as I love Jason
because he isn't.
313
00:19:41,080 --> 00:19:43,816
I love him, too.
314
00:19:43,883 --> 00:19:46,052
That's why I won't let him
do anything
315
00:19:46,118 --> 00:19:48,255
that will ruin his life.
316
00:19:52,659 --> 00:19:55,795
I'm cold. Let's go inside.

Quit rubbing so hard, Erin.
320
00:20:38,605 --> 00:20:42,442
Jim-Bob, the nail polish remover
isn't gonna work, either.
321
00:20:42,509 --> 00:20:43,943
We've tried every cleaner
we've got.
322
00:20:44,010 --> 00:20:46,413
I don't think that tattoo is
coming off.
323
00:20:46,479 --> 00:20:48,881
I sure thought the
Baldwins' Recipe would do it.
324
00:20:48,948 --> 00:20:51,217
Maybe Ike will have something.
We sure don't.
325
00:20:51,284 --> 00:20:53,019
I don't think I need
to go to Ike's.
326
00:20:53,085 --> 00:20:54,287
How come?

00:20:54,354 --> 00:20:56,589
It feels like my skin
is coming off.

-Hey, Ace.
-Hey.

00:21:57,316 --> 00:21:59,352
Why don't you just relax
and go on home?
340
00:21:59,419 --> 00:22:01,621
What are you gonna do
about it, chicken?
341
00:22:01,688 --> 00:22:04,657
-You're a lousy CO.
-Yeah, come on, boy.
342
00:22:04,724 --> 00:22:07,960
-Let's see you fight.
-I don't wanna fight you.
343
00:22:09,862 --> 00:22:10,863
BERT: Come on.
344
00:22:10,930 --> 00:22:12,932
JEB: Come on, it's my turn,
slacker.
345
00:22:12,999 --> 00:22:14,801
BEN: Come on, Jason,
we can lick 'em.
346
00:22:14,867 --> 00:22:17,970
You don't belong in the Army.
347
00:22:18,037 --> 00:22:19,872
Scared of his own shadow.
348
00:22:19,939 --> 00:22:22,942
BERT: You see now?
Your brother is a coward.
349
00:22:23,009 --> 00:22:24,577
Then I'll take you.
350
00:22:24,644 --> 00:22:28,581
Wouldn't be fair.
Two against one.
351
00:22:28,648 --> 00:22:30,783
(LAUGHING) Come on.
352
00:22:36,255 --> 00:22:38,691
-You alright, Ben?
-Why didn't you fight them?
353
00:22:38,758 --> 00:22:40,527
I don't care
what those jerks think.
354
00:22:40,593 --> 00:22:43,329
-They called you a coward.
-Doesn't mean I am one.
355
00:22:43,396 --> 00:22:45,665
Are you sure of that, Jason?
356
00:23:01,714 --> 00:23:07,053
-OLIVIA: You slept late.
-No classes till this afternoon.
357
00:23:07,119 --> 00:23:09,121
There's some warm biscuits
in the oven.
358
00:23:09,188 --> 00:23:10,557
I'm not hungry.
359
00:23:11,924 --> 00:23:14,461
-You doing the crossword puzzle?
-No.
360
00:23:14,527 --> 00:23:17,329
I'm looking at all the things
that might be rationed soon.
361
00:23:17,396 --> 00:23:19,899
We're lucky we live
in the country.
362
00:23:19,966 --> 00:23:23,736
I wish we could grow tires.
The coupe needs them.
363
00:23:23,803 --> 00:23:27,807
-What happened to your chin?
-Ben didn't tell you?
364
00:23:27,874 --> 00:23:29,108
No.
365
00:23:29,175 --> 00:23:31,644
I got into a little tussle
outside the Dew Drop last night.
366
00:23:31,711 --> 00:23:35,281
-You, in a fight?
-Is that so hard to believe?
367
00:23:35,347 --> 00:23:37,149
It's not like you, Jason.
368
00:23:37,216 --> 00:23:39,519
I didn't fight back.
369
00:23:39,586 --> 00:23:41,454
Ben thinks I should have.
370
00:23:41,521 --> 00:23:42,989
They called me a coward.
371
00:23:43,055 --> 00:23:45,191
Now, why would they
do a thing like that?
372
00:23:45,257 --> 00:23:46,793
They were in the recruiting
office yesterday
373
00:23:46,859 --> 00:23:49,962
when I picked up my CO pamphlet.
374
00:23:50,029 --> 00:23:51,130
Where's Daddy?
375
00:23:51,197 --> 00:23:53,666
He and Ben went
to Charlottesville.
376
00:23:56,503 --> 00:24:00,106
It takes courage to go
against the tide, Jason.
377
00:24:00,172 --> 00:24:02,842
I wish I could help.
378
00:24:02,909 --> 00:24:05,377
Men seem to be the experts
on killing.
379
00:24:05,444 --> 00:24:08,915
There's no reason why you
have to be like everybody else.
380
00:24:08,981 --> 00:24:12,151
That's not the right thing
to be thinking about these days.
381
00:24:12,218 --> 00:24:14,787
You got to think
about it in your own time.
382
00:24:14,854 --> 00:24:16,823
Whatever you decision,
you'll have to live with it
383
00:24:16,889 --> 00:24:20,259
-for the rest of your life.
-So will our whole family.
384
00:24:20,326 --> 00:24:23,095
You got to consider yourself
before any of us.
385
00:24:25,131 --> 00:24:28,134
It would help me to know
how you feel about it.
386
00:24:30,703 --> 00:24:32,672
Probably the same way
the first mother felt
387
00:24:32,739 --> 00:24:35,508
when she had to send
her son off to war.
388
00:24:35,575 --> 00:24:38,811
Mostly, I want you
to be alive and unhurt.
389
00:24:38,878 --> 00:24:41,047
I also want you to feel right
about the kind of life
390
00:24:41,113 --> 00:24:44,450
you're living, whether
we're at war or at peace.
391
00:24:44,517 --> 00:24:46,819
I thought about all that,
392
00:24:46,886 --> 00:24:51,891
about honor and responsibility,
and doing your part.
393
00:24:51,958 --> 00:24:54,493
I've always believed
in those things.
394
00:24:54,561 --> 00:24:57,964
There are different
kinds of courage, Jason.
395
00:24:58,030 --> 00:24:59,632
I know.
396
00:25:01,433 --> 00:25:03,836
I've just got to talk to Daddy.
397
00:25:03,903 --> 00:25:05,938
He may see things differently
than we do.
398
00:25:06,005 --> 00:25:08,140
I hope he'll
have some answers for me.
399
00:25:08,207 --> 00:25:09,842
I'm sure he will.
400
00:25:09,909 --> 00:25:12,478
Be honest with him,
and try to tell him as best
401
00:25:12,545 --> 00:25:14,547
you can what
you've been going through.
402
00:25:14,614 --> 00:25:16,983
I'll just have
to make him understand.
403
00:25:22,154 --> 00:25:23,956
Is this the strongest thing
you got, Ike?
404
00:25:24,023 --> 00:25:25,925
That'll take the spots
off a zebra
405
00:25:25,992 --> 00:25:27,694
and the stripes off a leopard
or vice versa.
406
00:25:27,760 --> 00:25:30,196
-What about ink?
-Sure, it'll get rid of ink.
407
00:25:30,262 --> 00:25:32,431
-Don't let it get on your skin.
-Why not?
408
00:25:32,498 --> 00:25:35,902
Well, because it's got acid in
it, and it'll burn your skin.
409
00:25:35,968 --> 00:25:38,137
Oh. Got anything that
won't burn your skin?
410
00:25:38,204 --> 00:25:40,973
Exactly what is it that
you want to remove?
411
00:25:41,040 --> 00:25:43,309
It's personal.
412
00:25:43,375 --> 00:25:45,311
You can tell me.
413
00:25:51,050 --> 00:25:52,885
Your mama's gonna kill you.
414
00:25:52,952 --> 00:25:56,055
That's why I need to find
something to take it off.
415
00:25:56,122 --> 00:25:58,190
Jim-Bob, I don't have anything
that'll take that off.
416
00:25:58,257 --> 00:26:00,960
Ike, you've got to help me.
You're my last hope.
417
00:26:01,027 --> 00:26:02,862
Come to think of it,
I did have a friend
418
00:26:02,929 --> 00:26:05,464
that tried
to take off a tattoo.
419
00:26:05,531 --> 00:26:06,766
It seems his girlfriend
was unhappy
420
00:26:06,833 --> 00:26:09,301
'cause he had another
girl's name on his arm.
421
00:26:09,368 --> 00:26:11,704
-What'd he do?
-Well, he tried two things.
422
00:26:11,771 --> 00:26:14,306
He put a poultice together
with milk and bread.
423
00:26:14,373 --> 00:26:17,910
Then, afterwards, he tried a
piece of raw liver on his arm.
424
00:26:17,977 --> 00:26:21,580
I can't even eat liver.
Did the tattoo go away?
425
00:26:21,648 --> 00:26:24,416
No.
426
00:26:24,483 --> 00:26:27,053
Maybe if I tried both of them.
427
00:26:27,119 --> 00:26:28,788
Yeah.
428
00:26:48,540 --> 00:26:50,309
(SNIFFING)
429
00:26:51,543 --> 00:26:55,281
-Do you smell something?
-No.
430
00:26:55,347 --> 00:26:57,083
Can't you smell that?
431
00:26:57,149 --> 00:27:00,419
Elizabeth, I don't know
what you're talking about.
432
00:27:00,486 --> 00:27:03,622
Smells horrible, like sour milk.
433
00:27:10,396 --> 00:27:13,199
It's stronger near you.
434
00:27:13,265 --> 00:27:14,266
Where are you going?
435
00:27:14,333 --> 00:27:17,269
Upstairs where I can
study in peace.
436
00:27:32,719 --> 00:27:34,787
I need to talk to you, Daddy.
437
00:27:38,825 --> 00:27:41,227
Alright, Son.
Let's go to the office.
438
00:27:48,968 --> 00:27:51,470
We had fudge brownies
for dessert.
439
00:27:51,537 --> 00:27:52,939
I don't want any.
440
00:27:53,005 --> 00:27:56,142
That's good. There's none left.
441
00:27:56,208 --> 00:27:58,277
I really appreciate that,
Elizabeth.
442
00:27:59,746 --> 00:28:02,581
Daddy, I don't want
you to be ashamed of me
443
00:28:02,648 --> 00:28:04,583
because of something I've done,
444
00:28:04,650 --> 00:28:07,019
something I might do.
445
00:28:07,086 --> 00:28:09,922
I doubt that could
ever happen, Son.
446
00:28:09,989 --> 00:28:12,324
I've a feeling you don't think
the same way I do
447
00:28:12,391 --> 00:28:14,626
about this conscientious
objector business.
448
00:28:14,693 --> 00:28:18,464
You've got to remember, you're
talking to an old soldier.
449
00:28:18,530 --> 00:28:20,266
You think I'm wrong?
450
00:28:20,332 --> 00:28:24,503
Yes, I do, Jason, if you go
through with it.
451
00:28:24,570 --> 00:28:26,338
But it's your decision.
452
00:28:26,405 --> 00:28:28,941
I need help making it.
453
00:28:29,008 --> 00:28:32,411
Alright, Son.
I'll try to help you.
454
00:28:34,346 --> 00:28:36,949
Why don't you tell me
what's on your mind?
455
00:28:37,016 --> 00:28:39,786
Well, it's nothing new.
456
00:28:39,852 --> 00:28:42,688
I've always felt this way
about killing.
457
00:28:42,755 --> 00:28:45,925
I understand about having to
kill stock to feed the family,
458
00:28:45,992 --> 00:28:48,861
but I usually made myself scarce
459
00:28:48,928 --> 00:28:50,997
whenever Grandpa was
slaughtering a hog
460
00:28:51,063 --> 00:28:53,165
or you were taking an ax
to chickens and turkeys.
461
00:28:53,232 --> 00:28:55,367
Nobody likes those chores, Son,
462
00:28:55,434 --> 00:28:57,770
but they're jobs
that have to be done.
463
00:28:57,837 --> 00:29:00,239
I realize that.
464
00:29:00,306 --> 00:29:04,743
When it comes to killing another
man, that's very different.
465
00:29:04,811 --> 00:29:07,479
I just know I couldn't do it.
466
00:29:07,546 --> 00:29:09,681
What makes you so sure, Jason?
467
00:29:09,748 --> 00:29:12,284
We've talked about this before.
468
00:29:12,351 --> 00:29:15,287
Remember those bayonet drills
in the National Guard?
469
00:29:15,354 --> 00:29:17,723
I thought you worked
all that out, Son.
470
00:29:17,790 --> 00:29:19,391
We weren't at war then.
471
00:29:19,458 --> 00:29:22,661
It was the main reason
I didn't re-enlist.
472
00:29:22,728 --> 00:29:25,297
I've had nightmares about
sticking that steel blade
473
00:29:25,364 --> 00:29:26,665
in that dummy.
474
00:29:26,732 --> 00:29:30,102
It was filled with straw,
but I couldn't help thinking
475
00:29:30,169 --> 00:29:33,039
that there'd be screaming
flesh and blood coming at me,
476
00:29:33,105 --> 00:29:35,975
and maybe I just couldn't do it.
477
00:29:36,042 --> 00:29:38,911
And in that second of
hesitation,
478
00:29:38,978 --> 00:29:41,213
it could mean the difference
in a buddy's life
479
00:29:41,280 --> 00:29:44,183
or a whole squad,
a platoon, who knows?
480
00:29:45,784 --> 00:29:47,453
I know how you feel, Jason.
481
00:29:47,519 --> 00:29:50,923
I had those feelings
over in the trenches in France.
482
00:29:50,990 --> 00:29:54,226
Every man questions his limits,
Son.
483
00:29:54,293 --> 00:29:57,129
But there comes a time
when you've got to believe
484
00:29:57,196 --> 00:30:00,699
you'll be there
when you have to be.
485
00:30:00,766 --> 00:30:04,103
That time is now, Jason.
The enemy has attacked us.
486
00:30:04,170 --> 00:30:06,172
They're out to destroy
our way of life
487
00:30:06,238 --> 00:30:08,340
and they'll stop
at nothing to do it.
488
00:30:10,742 --> 00:30:12,411
Don't worry, Son.
489
00:30:12,478 --> 00:30:16,148
When the time comes,
you'll be there.
490
00:30:16,215 --> 00:30:20,152
I wish I was as sure of that
as you are.
491
00:30:20,219 --> 00:30:22,922
Jason, the Waltons
have always been there.
492
00:30:22,989 --> 00:30:25,357
Your grandpa and everybody
who came before him.
493
00:30:25,424 --> 00:30:27,960
(SIGHS)
494
00:30:28,027 --> 00:30:30,229
I've been thinking a lot
about Grandpa lately.
495
00:30:30,296 --> 00:30:32,298
JOHN: He was a man of peace,
Jason,
496
00:30:32,364 --> 00:30:36,102
but he fought in the
Spanish-American war.
497
00:30:36,168 --> 00:30:37,904
And our family fought
on both sides
498
00:30:37,970 --> 00:30:40,907
in the war between the states.
499
00:30:40,973 --> 00:30:43,575
And they fought for this land
before that.
500
00:30:45,644 --> 00:30:48,847
Remember how Pa used to tell us
we ought to be proud
501
00:30:48,915 --> 00:30:51,017
of the pioneer stock
in our family?
502
00:30:53,886 --> 00:30:57,723
Jason, this is fought-for land.
503
00:30:57,789 --> 00:31:01,060
Remember how Pa used to say we
owe something to all our family
504
00:31:01,127 --> 00:31:03,996
that's over there
in the family graveyard?
505
00:31:04,063 --> 00:31:06,432
Remember how Pa
used to talk like that?
506
00:31:09,835 --> 00:31:14,106
I've been thinking a lot about
maybe going up on the mountain.
507
00:31:14,173 --> 00:31:16,242
Maybe spending the night there.
508
00:31:16,308 --> 00:31:19,979
It's the best place
in the world, Son.
509
00:31:20,046 --> 00:31:23,349
-You want to come along?
-No, I don't think so.
510
00:31:23,415 --> 00:31:26,218
This is a trip you ought
to make by yourself.
511
00:31:30,356 --> 00:31:32,358
I think I'm gonna turn in.
512
00:31:32,424 --> 00:31:35,694
I want to get an early start.
513
00:31:35,761 --> 00:31:37,629

514
00:31:37,696 --> 00:31:39,298
Goodnight, Dad.
515
00:31:49,008 --> 00:31:50,409
Jim-Bob,
you'll never convince me
516
00:31:50,476 --> 00:31:53,445
that liver is gonna
take off a tattoo.
517
00:31:53,512 --> 00:31:55,347
Ike said it might work.
518
00:31:55,414 --> 00:31:57,683
That's what he told you about
the milk and bread poultice
519
00:31:57,749 --> 00:31:59,986

-Changing a light bulb.

Don't stare, Elizabeth.
It's not polite.
526

BEN: He just walked in. Jason?
527
00:32:30,482 --> 00:32:33,285
It's for you. Billy Streeter.
528
00:32:36,488 --> 00:32:38,390
Hello?
529
00:32:38,457 --> 00:32:42,294
I haven't decided yet.
I need some more time.
530
00:32:42,361 --> 00:32:45,631
I know that.
I'm prepared to take my chances.
531
00:32:45,697 --> 00:32:49,368
You and the other guys are just
gonna have to go on without me.
532
00:32:51,370 --> 00:32:53,905
Look, Billy,
I know you mean well,
533
00:32:53,972 --> 00:32:58,377
but just stay off my back,
will you?
534
00:32:58,444 --> 00:33:00,612
Yeah, I'm sorry.
535
00:33:00,679 --> 00:33:02,281
Good luck.
536
00:33:09,388 --> 00:33:12,358
I'm sorry about last night, Ben.
537
00:33:12,424 --> 00:33:14,693
You shouldn't have stood up
for me.
538
00:33:14,760 --> 00:33:18,030
Should've done it yourself.
539
00:33:18,097 --> 00:33:20,699
I'm going up
on the mountain early.

00:33:20,766 --> 00:33:22,368

Jason, wait.
542
00:33:31,377 --> 00:33:33,745
Did a lot of thinking
about last night.
543
00:33:33,812 --> 00:33:36,748
I want you to take over my job
at the mill.
544
00:33:36,815 --> 00:33:38,184
I couldn't do that.
545
00:33:38,250 --> 00:33:40,252
-What about you?
-It'd be the best for us.
546
00:33:40,319 --> 00:33:43,389
I can go into the Navy
and you can get out of fighting.
547

I don't wanna
get out of anything.
548
00:33:45,257 --> 00:33:46,958
I'm doing you a favor.
549
00:33:47,025 --> 00:33:49,661
I thought you said
you didn't wanna fight.
550
00:33:49,728 --> 00:33:51,363
Don't do me any favors.
551
00:33:51,430 --> 00:33:54,466
I'm trying to save
you the embarrassment!
552
00:33:54,533 --> 00:33:57,236
You're trying to save yourself
the embarrassment, Ben.
553
00:33:57,303 --> 00:33:58,637
That's right, I am.
554
00:33:58,704 --> 00:34:01,340
'Cause I can't see you
disgracing this family!
555
00:34:01,407 --> 00:34:03,475
I'm sorry you feel that way.
556
00:34:03,542 --> 00:34:06,412
But not sorry enough
to change your mind, right?
557
00:34:06,478 --> 00:34:08,147
No, Ben.
558

Why is it every generation
seems to have to have a war?
565
00:35:13,279 --> 00:35:15,281
I figure this one won't last
long, Liv,
566
00:35:15,347 --> 00:35:16,815
once we really get into it.
567
00:35:16,882 --> 00:35:19,785
In the meantime,
it's tearing our family apart.
568
00:35:19,851 --> 00:35:22,721

to go through another.

Jim-Bob went back to bed again.
572
00:35:30,962 --> 00:35:33,199
Well, wake him up.
He'll be late for school.
573
00:35:33,265 --> 00:35:35,201
It'll be a pleasure.

-Erin, you promised not to tell.
-Oh, Jim-Bob, it's too late.

Now what's going on
around here?

on my arm.

I saw raw meat.
587

do such a thing?

-It's a tattoo.
-Oh, Jim-Bob.
591
00:36:35,026 --> 00:36:36,662
It's the Army Air Corps
insignia.
592
00:36:36,728 --> 00:36:38,430
It's more revolting
than the liver.

I keep telling him.
594

such a thing. It's disgusting.

this the rest of your life.

live with your mama?

I just had to have the tattoo.

I wanna join the Air Corps.

That won't work.

and unhurt for now

He's been up there
overnight before.
618

I know.
619
00:39:04,042 --> 00:39:07,078
Guess I'm thinking more
about myself than him.
620
00:39:07,145 --> 00:39:09,080
Is that why you're trying
to turn this place
621
00:39:09,147 --> 00:39:11,783
into a Turkish bath?
622
00:39:11,850 --> 00:39:13,685
I guess so.
623
00:39:13,752 --> 00:39:16,054
I said some real mean things
to him, Daddy.
624
00:39:16,121 --> 00:39:17,956
I just didn't mean them.
625
00:39:18,023 --> 00:39:21,427
I think he understands that,
Son.
626
00:39:21,493 --> 00:39:23,028
I hope so.
627
00:39:23,094 --> 00:39:25,230
I was thinking about going up
on the mountain tomorrow morning
628
00:39:25,296 --> 00:39:30,436
and see if I can find him and
ask him if he wants a ride home.
629
00:39:30,502 --> 00:39:33,238
Well, I think Jason would
appreciate that.
630
00:39:33,304 --> 00:39:35,941
He's probably up there right
now, sleeping in a blanket,
631

staring at the stars.
632

to find peace of mind.

00:39:42,548 --> 00:39:45,216
I hope he does.

00:43:28,940 --> 00:43:31,009
JOHN: Every man questions his
limits, Son.
678
00:43:31,076 --> 00:43:33,178
The Waltons have
always been there.
679
00:43:33,244 --> 00:43:34,445
Don't worry, Son.
680
00:43:34,512 --> 00:43:39,818
(ECHOING) When the time comes,
you'll be there.
681
00:44:24,295 --> 00:44:26,364
Thought you might
like a ride home.
682
00:44:26,431 --> 00:44:28,433
Sure would.
683
00:44:28,499 --> 00:44:29,868
I'm really sorry, Jason.
684
00:44:29,935 --> 00:44:32,137
I had no right to say
those things to you.
685
00:44:32,203 --> 00:44:35,406
I'll back you up
with whatever you decide.
686
00:44:35,473 --> 00:44:36,842
Thanks, Ben.
687
00:44:58,096 --> 00:44:59,697
Here, I'll take this
for you, Jason.
688
00:44:59,765 --> 00:45:01,032
Thanks.
689
00:45:08,006 --> 00:45:10,876
I was about to send
a search party out for you two.
690
00:45:10,942 --> 00:45:13,111
Ben drove me into Rockfish.
691
00:45:13,178 --> 00:45:15,313
I took that conscientious
objector pamphlet
692
00:45:15,380 --> 00:45:17,715
back to the sergeant.
693
00:45:17,783 --> 00:45:20,919
I didn't fill it out.
694
00:45:20,986 --> 00:45:22,754
I was hoping that would happen.
695
00:45:22,821 --> 00:45:26,424
Hope you did it for yourself,
not for me or anyone else.
696
00:45:26,491 --> 00:45:28,760
I did it for me.
697
00:45:28,827 --> 00:45:31,129
I did it because
I'm a part of this family
698
00:45:31,196 --> 00:45:33,498
and a part of this country.
699
00:45:33,564 --> 00:45:37,368
Without either one, I wouldn't
be here or be what I am.
700
00:45:37,435 --> 00:45:40,371
And what you are
is pretty damn good, Son.
701
00:45:48,847 --> 00:45:51,382
I enlisted, Mama.
702
00:45:51,449 --> 00:45:53,218
I can finish college first,
though.
703
00:45:53,284 --> 00:45:56,754
I don't have to report
until after I graduate.
704
00:45:56,822 --> 00:45:59,690
I feel better for it.
705
00:45:59,757 --> 00:46:01,226
It's all I need to know.
706
00:46:01,292 --> 00:46:03,428
You don't have
to tell me any more.
707
00:46:15,640 --> 00:46:16,942
JOHN-BOY: Jason had searched
his soul
708
00:46:17,008 --> 00:46:18,576
and found an inner strength
709
00:46:18,643 --> 00:46:22,147
that would help him enter
a new phase of his life.
710
00:46:22,213 --> 00:46:24,482
Jim-Bob's tattoo
remained on his arm,
711
00:46:24,549 --> 00:46:27,218
a symbol of his youthful
lack of judgment
712
00:46:27,285 --> 00:46:30,055
as well as his
commendable ambition.
713
00:46:30,121 --> 00:46:33,124
It is to this day a topic
which amuses everyone,
714
00:46:33,191 --> 00:46:35,293
except my mother.
715
00:46:38,763 --> 00:46:41,466
BEN: Jim-Bob, quit tossing
and turning, will you?
716
00:46:41,532 --> 00:46:44,302
JIM-BOB: I can't go to sleep.
BEN: Well, neither can I!
717
00:46:44,369 --> 00:46:46,371
Not with you spinning around
like a whirling dervish.
718
00:46:46,437 --> 00:46:48,239
OLIVIA: What's the matter,
Jim-Bob?
719
00:46:48,306 --> 00:46:51,076
JIM-BOB: Well, I got to thinking
about my Army Air Corps tattoo.
720
00:46:51,142 --> 00:46:53,711
What if I end up flying for
the Navy or the Marines?
721
00:46:53,778 --> 00:46:56,781
BEN: They'd really get on you.
That's what would happen.
722
00:46:56,848 --> 00:46:59,150
OLIVIA: Pleasant dreams,
Jim-Bob.
723
00:46:59,217 --> 00:47:01,219
JIM-BOB: Goodnight, Mama.
