336
00:12:24,411 --> 00:12:26,451
You've done horrible things.

337
00:12:26,538 --> 00:12:28,458

MARILYN:
That wasn't the question.

341
00:12:35,255 --> 00:12:36,915
I asked,
"Should they hate you?"

342

You know what I love
about boys

343
00:12:43,013 --> 00:12:45,063

who do well?

344
00:12:46,474 --> 00:12:48,234
They tell everybody

345
00:12:48,226 --> 00:12:51,436
they're gonna take care
of their mother one day.

346
00:12:51,438 --> 00:12:55,398
They brag they're gonna
buy their mother a house.

347
00:12:55,400 --> 00:12:57,110
I didn't buy
my mother a house.

348
00:12:57,110 --> 00:12:58,570
Sure you did.

349
00:12:58,570 --> 00:13:02,160
You exhumed her body and gave
her a new, grand resting place

350
00:13:02,157 --> 00:13:04,527
befitting a queen.

351
00:13:04,534 --> 00:13:07,414
That's what a son
who loves his mother does,

352
00:13:07,412 --> 00:13:09,212
not a son who hates her,

353
00:13:09,289 --> 00:13:12,289
and if I had to guess,
you honored her

354
00:13:12,292 --> 00:13:15,712
because you appreciate
what Lorna Mae did for you.

355
00:13:23,762 --> 00:13:25,182
She didn't do shit for me.

356
00:13:25,180 --> 00:13:27,520
MARILYN: She didn't do
what you wanted,

357
00:13:27,599 --> 00:13:29,559
but she did what you needed.

358
00:13:29,559 --> 00:13:31,689
She let you go, Mike,

359
00:13:31,770 --> 00:13:35,270
because that's the best she
could do for you at that time,

360
00:13:35,357 --> 00:13:36,727
and in her own way,

361
00:13:36,733 --> 00:13:40,653
she admitted her shortcomings
and let you become you.

362
00:13:42,155 --> 00:13:44,815
That's why
you gave her a new home,

363
00:13:44,908 --> 00:13:46,578
even in death.

364
00:13:52,374 --> 00:13:55,044
So let's talk about
what you're running away from.

365
00:13:55,043 --> 00:13:56,383
I ain't running away
from nothin'.

366
00:13:56,378 --> 00:13:57,878
Bullshit.

367
00:13:57,879 --> 00:14:00,009
Everybody's running
from something.

368
00:14:00,090 --> 00:14:02,050
You said your mother's
a bad mother,

369
00:14:02,050 --> 00:14:04,340
yet she made
the ultimate sacrifice for you.

370
00:14:05,887 --> 00:14:07,967
Can't say that
about your fathers.

371
00:14:08,056 --> 00:14:10,516
- My father.
- MARILYN: I said what I meant.

372
00:14:10,517 --> 00:14:12,977
And I meant what I said--
fathers, plural.

373
00:14:13,061 --> 00:14:15,231
MIKE: Cus was
the only real father I had,

374
00:14:15,230 --> 00:14:16,820
the only person
that cared about me.

375
00:14:16,815 --> 00:14:17,975
He loved me.

376
00:14:18,066 --> 00:14:20,356
He also told you
to be a monster.

377
00:14:20,360 --> 00:14:23,110
When I was in the ring,
not in real life.

378
00:14:23,113 --> 00:14:26,163
Does your life look like
you really understood that?

379
00:14:26,241 --> 00:14:29,081
You were 14
