- Yes, hello?

Yeah, this is,
yes, Prince McCoy.

Right, my dad and I own
the hotel on the corner.

Yeah.

Well, I mean, I'm just
callin' to get in,

right, about the extension.

Three months, possibly.

Yeah, I know, I know, I
know, I know (chuckles).

I know we have a
couple of times.

We, really it's a big
job and we're just...

(Prince sighs)

Yes.

Yeah, please have
him call me back.

Thank you.

(Prince sighs)

Jenny broke up with me.

I mean, I knew it was comin',

I just didn't know it
was gonna be tonight.

(Prince groans)

I talked to the
bank again today.

Ain't budgin', Dad.

Like it was like, it
wasn't Gail this time.

It was somebody else.
They keep passin' me

on down the line and...

How many years you
been bankin' there?

Hey, where's the
loyalty, you know?

Place was there ever
since I was a kid.

Maybe it's time we moved
to some other bank.

Just move to some other
town or something.

This is gettin' ridiculous, Dad.

(grunts) You know what I mean?

Come on.

We gotta talk about this.

Dad?

Dad?

("Rising Sun")

- Do you
have a girlfriend?

- She just
broke up with me.

- Was she like, the one?

- Actually,

this is the one.

♪ It the rising sun ♪

- She's hot.

You used to be, too.

- All those years of loyalty,

and they just took the only
thing my dad and I ever owned.

- Oh, that's mean.

I hate stuff like that.

When I was little,
I hated monsters.

But I liked clowns.

- Yeah.

That bank is a big monster
with a big ugly dragon

that swallowed up the
rest of my family.

It wasn't much,
but it's all I had.

- You know the thing
about dragons, right?

What does every dragon need?

A knight to slay it.

(gentle music)

You gonna slay that dragon.

(gentle music)

- Nice vehicle.

These wheels are
gonna get you places.

(train rattling)

(announcer speaking faintly)

(Prince sighs)

You know, when I was a kid, I
always enjoyed the circuses.

(passengers chattering)

Well, howdy.

You don't even have a
pot left to piss in, son.

That's an awful lot of trash

to be draggin' around with ya.

- But this is my personal stuff.

- Oh.

You know, once I had
to sell my only suit

for a few cans of beans
and a loaf of bread.

Turned out to be the
best tastin' beans

and loaf of bread ever
sank my chops into.

- Yeah, right.

(trunk slams)
(engine rumbling)

- Howdy, again.

- So, uh, where you headed?

- Well, I'm waitin' for
the next train tomorrow,

but I'm real antsy
to get started

on my trip to Nova Scotia.

- You got somethin'
against flying?

- Well, doctor says I shouldn't.

Heart might not make it.

- Altitude?

- Stewardesses.

- (chuckles) Okay.

All right, look,
I'm goin' back home

to a town called Apple Seed,
it's on the Vermont border,

but it's a lot closer to
Nova Scotia than here.

- Well, ain't that somethin'?

You're goin' backward
and I'm goin' forward

and we're still headed
in the same direction.

- Look, what I'm
offerin' is this.

You pay $400.

It's about all the gas, you
pay for a couple of the hotels,

39.99 deals, share with the food

and I will get you
outta here today.

- What routes are you
intendin' to take?

- I don't know, what
does that matter?

- Well, this here is a map
to the blue-plate specials.

It's a handful of points
between here and there,

where the old and
the new shall meet

and unveil the
grandeur of the day.

(Prince chuckles)

- All right, I got ya.

You know what?

I'm sorry my friend, this
is the express train,

but best of luck to ya.

(engine rumbling)
(upbeat music)

See ya.

Okay (chuckles).

(upbeat music)

- My name is Carl Robbins.

What's yours, son?

- Well, it's not son.

It's Prince McCoy.

- They say destiny is like
ladies of the evening.

They don't make house calls,
you just gotta go for it.

So, how did someone from
the picturesque town

of Apple Seed find
themselves way out here?

- It's called life.

Anyways, ya know Carl, I might
be a little headachy for a bit,

so I might not be
the best talker.

- Ah, sometimes it's good

to just let the
sun hit your face,

the wind stroke your hair.

- What can I get you fellas?

- I'm gonna have
the cheeseburger,

fries and a ginger ale, please.

- Good, safe choice.

And you, Sir?

- This is just somethin'.

- What's that?

- Well, quite the array of
bonne bouche you have here.

- Bonne bouche?

Well, if I didn't
have the benefit

of a good education I might
think you just insulted me.

(Carl laughs)

- The pictures of your
food here on the menu,

it looks good enough to
eat right off the page.

Okay.

- (laughs) Thank you.

Now, what would you like?

- Well, dear
Jolene, I would like

to try the same cheeseburger
my young companion here

is partaking in, but I would
prefer the chocolate shake.

And with that, I would
like your fruit salad

and a side of frog sticks.

- Frog sticks?

- French fries.

- Some eggs on toast,

a serving of your honey
buttermilk biscuits

and a glass of dog soup.

It's water.

- Impressive (chuckles).

All right.

Well, I'll have it up in
a little while (laughs).

- Yes, Ma'am.

(diners chattering)
(food sizzling)

This tastes better
than it even looks.

And Miss Jolene,
this cake looks like

the best piece of dessert that
I ever rolled my orbs across.

(Carl chuckles)
(Jolene chuckles)

Yeah!

- Carl, I should be tipping you.

(Carl laughs)

Do you have any idea how long

I've been makin' my
family's chocolate cake?

How many times I've
cracked those eggs

and greased that pan and
spread that frosting?

Well, I don't have
any idea either.

(Carl laughs)

All I know is,
- What's that?

- I spend my days staring
at this black beauty,

trapped inside this
glass display case

goin' unnoticed and untouched,

from morning 'til night while

the rest of the
world passes it by.

But I'll be darned if I
don't head on back into

that kitchen every
couple of days

and fire up that oven
and preheat it to 325.

(Prince's throat clears)

- Ya know, I'm gonna go hit the
head.

You might wanna, too.

I think you might have to.

(diners chattering)

- Ladies and gentlemen!

I would be doing myself
and this lonely piece

of pastry an enormous disservice

if I did not make
available to you

a free slice of
this delicious cake.

Just hold up your hands, please.

There's one right back there.

Oh, yes.

Oh, and here's another.

Oh, that is fantastic.

Be sure to tell all
of your friends,

because something this wonderful
should not be overlooked.

(upbeat music)

of cake to save the day.

Some things you can't
think about too much, Son.

You just gotta do.

- Hey, you wanna
get us arrested?

You gotta put those on.

- I'm not advocating
unlawful conduct,

but it's really great to see

another blue-plate
special come through!

- All right, listen, listen.
-(chuckle)

The blue-plate thing,

the blue-plate special
thing, stop it!

Enough.

Can we just do things with
clothes on instead, all right?

Come watch some TV or somethin'.

- Woo hoo!

(gentle music)

(swing creaking)

Good morning.

Gonna be pretty
hot today, I think.

- I'm not interested.

- In the weather?

- In whatever you want from me.

- Just a little yip yap.

Which way you headed?

- Just headed.

- Well, nice places
there I hear.

You travelin' with your family?

- Just some friends.

- Oh.

(horn honking)

- Oh, I gotta go.

Are you a crazy person?

(Carl laughs)

- Well, we'll have to
wait until I can compare.

- Compare to what?

- Sane people.

- I saw you naked.

(Carl laughs)

- My apologies.

- I'm Rocky.

I'll see ya.

- I think so.

(gentle music)

I can't speak for
all Oklahoma women,

but the ones I knew
were really nice girls.

- All right, that's
good to know.

- And I'm not talkin'
nice girls, you know?

- I know what you're
talkin' about.

- Well.

You know, sometimes they
haul their cattle

in from somewhere,
unload 'em here.

- A lotta wood there.

- Oh yeah, yeah.

You know, these are old
railroad ties.

- Is that right?

- Oh, yeah, yeah.

These are all railroad ties.

They make great corrals.

- They make
great urinals, too.

- Evenin', Miss Sawyer.

- Hello.

- My name is Carl Robbins,

and you're even lovelier
than your photo.

- (laughs) Oh, I mean, my photo?

- Well,
yeah, it's the one

that my young companion carries

around with him all the time
and he accidentally dropped

it and he's very fond of it.

- Where...

Where...

(Carl chuckles)
(Regan chuckles)

- May I
use your restroom?

- Yeah, of course.

Where is he?

- Well, he's ducked
down right over there.

Kinda hunkered down.

- Hi.

(Prince chuckles)

Hi, Regan.

(crickets chirping)

- This is really
quite somethin'.

Painted a few things
myself over the years.

But my shrinking violet
expressionism lacks your candor.

Though, my wife
taught me to always

look closer than what
you see on the surface.

- Your wife?

Is she, she an artist?

- She's no longer
walking with us.

But she left miles and
miles of footprints behind.

(Prince's throat clears)

- I'm...

We're sorry to barge in on you

like this and I know it's late.

We should probably get--

- No, you boys are staying here.

I got room.

- Yeah, but we don't
wanna upset any roommates

or push anybody out.

- I live alone at the moment.

- Well, being cash
strapped as we are,

I don't know that it
would hurt to stay.

- Cash strapped?

Are you guys okay with money?

- Well, I have a fella
here that can explain it.

- Yeah, we're fine
with money, Carl.

We're okay.

- Well, we were
until I walked out

of our last pit stop
one wallet short.

- You lost your wallet?

Your money's gone?

- Well it departed
during my presence.

And my end of the bargain
is providing the money.

- Yeah, you know what?

Your, bargains, bargains.

We're okay, we're all good.

We have money, Carl.

We have plenty of
money, we're okay,

and as a matter of fact,

I think this is a beautiful
place that we're in right now.

This is beautiful.

If you don't mind 'cause
this is just so beautiful,

we need a little recuperation
and some fresh air

and we're gonna stay here.

- I think that's a good idea.

- Great idea.

(water splashing)

- So, I'm going back
home too, in a few days.

- Oh yeah?

You're gonna see
your folks, huh?

I think about 'em all the time.

- I'm getting married.

- Whoa.

Wow, that's somethin' big.

- It's something I've
wanted for forever.

- Well, congratulations.

I mean, you've talked about
that for a long time (chuckles).

- Yeah.

Still.

I remember hearing
you yell out one time,

you wished the whole place

would wash away in a
biblical flood or something.

- Just drunk and pissed.

Everything gets all
biblical when you're drunk.

- I'm marrying Justin.

- Oh, hell.

Stayed together, huh?

- Yeah, still together.

We're getting married at the
church in the town square.

- Our little square.

- Well, it's the town square.

- Yeah.

Well, we got a lotta
ice creams there.

- Right.

(crickets chirping)
(water splashing)

(Regan chuckles)

Well, the couch
is set up for you.

You need some rest, it'll
make you feel better.

I'll see you in the morning.

- 'Kay.

(Regan sighs)

- I, um...

It really is nice to
see your face again.

I don't like forgetting
what it looks like.

(gentle music)
(crickets chirping)

(door creaking)

(engine rumbling)

- Might've been nice if we'd

woken Regan
up and said goodbye.

- I'm not too big
on goodbyes, so.

(sighs) Carl, you're gonna
have some money, right?

- I'll keep my end
of the bargain.

- All right.

(birds chirping)

(engine rumbling)

- We could topple over,
straight down an abyss,

that no amount of bare
fingered rock climbing

could ever pull your
pained body back up.

And so, as you go
through life from A to Z,

and you make what amounts

to the tiniest, tiniest
change in direction,

it can, over time and distance,

take you to a whole
new destination.

And with that folks, I
thank you for listening,

I thank you for coming.

- Thank you.

- Thank you.

- My pleasure.

You're a wonderful group.

Thank you, Sir.

Thank you.

Thank you, Ma'am.
- Yes, thank you.

- Thank you so much.
- Nice to see you.

- Thank you, Ma'am.
- Thank you.

- Thank you.

- That was a very good speech

that he gave, and
I'm glad I saw it.

And he was wonderful.

(Prince chuckles)

Okay.

See ya.

- See ya.

- Have a nice day.

- I will do that.

- What are you doin'?

- Spreading the Gospel.

- The Gospel?

- Gospel.

The world is our church, Son.

Every corner, every
street, congregation.

- All right, but the
next time the good Lord

goes whispering into your ear,

talk to me first.

- I'm not speakin'
for the Lord, Son.

I'm raisin' a lone
voice for Sarah.

- Sarah?

- My wife.

(gentle music)

We had a lot of
ideas, she and I.

Silly ones.

Not just the ones that
form in your head,

but those that
grow in your heart.

You know those?

And those are the good ones.

And if for one
reason or another,

you don't get to
fulfill those promises,

then just go out
and do it yourself.

I promise you, you can
take the love with you.

I have somethin' to
say to the world.

It might not be a gold mine,

but at least it's a gold coin.

Here.

(coins clattering)

A few miles at a time, Son.

(gentle music)

(Prince's teeth sucking)

Do you want me to drive, Son?

- You can't drive, Carl.

- Okay.

It kinda looks fun.

Rocky, Rocky seems to be
having a little problem.

- You know that girl?

Nah, nah.

None of our business.

- Life ain't always
about business, Son.

- Listen, Dudley Do-Right, we
got a journey to attend to.

- She's got my money.

(tires squealing)

- What?

- Back at the motel, I believe.

(engine rumbling)

(crickets chirping)

- Hey, girl, give me the money.

- What?

- The wallet you took out
of our hotel yesterday,

I want it back and the
money all better be there.

- (smirks) Not now, dude.

My ride's altruism just
turned into horny-ism.

I'm not happy about it.

- Yeah, well, I'm sorry for
ya but I want the wallet.

- Look, I'll give you
somethin', all right?

Back off.

- Look, you can
either give it to me

or I can take it from you.

It's your choice.

- Screw you.

(foot thuds)
(Prince groans)

- I can't believe
you just did that!

- I warned you, buddy.

- You just kicked
me in the crotch.

- I warned you.

- Stop saying you warned me.

(Prince groans)

- The old man was nice to me.

I borrowed three bucks
for a couple sodas.

(Rocky sighs)

(Rocky grunts)

(Prince groans)

- Got it, let's go.

- She's all alone out here, Son.

- We're all
alone out here, Carl.

She deserves where she's goin'.

- Well, she ain't got
where she's goin' yet

so we can't say she deserves it.

(Prince breathes heavily)

She's just a child.

(wind whistling)
(crickets chirping)

- Anyway, 29 times.

I counted.

He hit me 29 times.

Now mind you, I
deserved a few of 'em.

I'm not too proud or
progressive to not admit that.

They weren't full to the face,

but they stung, you know?

So, one night, I
thought to myself,

stepdad or no, he
ain't gettin' to 30.

- How old are you?

- 16 going on 25.

- Oh, great.

It's gonna be 25 to life.

Look, the next town we come to,

we're droppin' you off and
you're callin' your mom.

- Drop me off anywhere,
I'm not calling her.

My mom is more lost
than I am out here.

Anyway, I have
cousins in Canada.

- Well, I'm happy for you.

- What about you, Carl?

- Off to a
few special places.

- Girlfriend?

- There is one woman I
haven't seen for 40 years,

sown into the
fabric of my heart.

- That's crazy, man.

My parents were like
one and two years old

the last time you saw her.

That's like two lifetimes.

- Yeah, or
one very long one.

- Hey, you, would you stay
in here and like, watch TV?

- What are you like extra
depressed, Jack Kerouac?

Is that what you are?

Maybe I should grind you
into the pavement, hm?

What do you think, Andy?

Yeah?

(upbeat music)

- Put him in a body bag!

Yes (laughs)!

(upbeat music)

Oh yeah, you tell him Amir,
you tell him (grunts).

- Look at you (laughs).

What, what?

- Yeah, punch him in
the moose knuckle!

(Amir laughs)
(upbeat music)

- Excuse me.
- Huh?

(Amir groans)

Hey!

(Amir groaning)
(upbeat music)

Ow, ow!

Ow, ow, ow!

(men yelling)

- Frogs.

Frogs.

There's one.

There's another one.

- Hey, take it easy
old man, chill, chill.

Whoa!

- Bull frogs!

Big mean, green
frogs everywhere.

- Whatever, man.

(upbeat music)

(engine rumbling)

(tires squealing)

(crickets chirping)

- Are they gone?

- Frogs?

- Are those gentlemen?

- Yeah, they left.

(Carl sighs)

- Oh (panting).

That really gets
the heart rate up.

In the house, the number
one rule in the scrap

is to act outta sorts.

Let 'em think that you're
kind of on the crazy side.

(Carl laughs)

That's funny (chuckles).

- House?

Were you in prison?

- Well, Washington State
Correctional Institute,

San Quintin.

- San Quentin Prison for what?

- July 20th, 1973.

Two men and myself walked into

a bank in Kingston, Washington.

Each of us with a
pistol and a canvas bag.

Only two of us walked out.

Of course, it wasn't
too far a walk.

- You weren't really
seeing frogs were you?

(Carl laughs)

- Frogs in the parking lot?

(Carl laughs)

That's crazy talk, Son (laughs).

(Prince laughs)

Oh yeah.

mine, young Rocky.

- So, what's her name?

Ruth Lockerman.

- Well, I knew you were
married, man, Carl,

but how well do you
know this young lady?

- I met her once
a long time ago.

- Wait a minute, once?

I thought she was sewn into
the fabric of your heart?

- Ruth Lockerman was the
teller at the bank I held up.

- Cool second date.

(gentle music)

- Good morning.
- Hi.

How are you today?

- I'm fine, thank you.

How are you?
- I'm not that swell

about getting on my
feet because of this.

- Well you just, yeah.
- Okay.

- You just stay
comfortable there.

- All right.
- Okay if I take this seat?

- Sure.

It was intended.

- How are you today?

- I feel fine today.

- Yeah?

You look wonderful.
- I'm glad (chuckles).

- Good (chuckles).

- And were are we to meet here?

- Yes, yes, yes.
- Oh!

Out here, okay.
- Yeah.

Well, Ruth it's
great to meet you.

- Thank you.
- My name is Carl.

- Oh, Carl.
- Carl.

- That's my father's name.

How do you spell it?

- C-A-R-L.

- He does, too.
- Yeah?

- He did.

- Oh, okay, yeah.
- Yeah, yeah.

I'm dying to know why
you're walking around here.

(Carl chuckles)

- Well, I'm sorry
I didn't call in advance,

- Yeah.
- but there's a shortage

of phone booths around
here and I couldn't get

to a booth to call you in here.

- Oh, right.

- Actually, my mission here is,

well, I, in my younger days,
uh, was a--

- We all have younger days,
don't we.

- I was, uh, uh, a bad man.

- A bad man?

- A bad man.
In fact, I was a bank robber

and you were working for a bank,

Washington State over
on Pettit Street.

We came and robbed
the bank and--

- I can't believe this, Carl.

- And you were teller
and I have remembered

you throughout the years.

- What a
poetic thing to say.

(Carl chuckles)

- Well, it is kind of
poetic but it's what I feel.

- You know, the funny, the
odd part about it is

that I know it was a big deal.

- Yeah.

- And I can't remember it.
- Yeah.

- And that's part of
the price I pay I guess,

for living a long
time for one thing.

- Yeah, yeah.
- But, yeah.

But it happened long ago.
- Well, it was

over 40 years ago.

- And so you allow yourself
to be known as a bank robber?

- Well, yes.
Now I--

(Ruth laughs)
(Carl chuckles)

I wonder--
- A wonderful story,

and thanks for tellin' me.
- It's true,

it's a true story.

Yeah.

What I want to do
is I want to feel

that I have righted a wrong,

that I have somehow,
that I can feel,

kinda feel good about,
about myself, again.

- And you haven't
forgiven yourself yet?

- No, I haven't.

I haven't.

- I'm really glad
to see you do this

and know that you're letting go

of something that may have

been making your
life heavy or hard.

And that we can, you can
start, you could be yourself.

I wish I could give you what
you want about how you feel.

All I can remember now, is now.

- Thank you.

That really helps.

- Does it?

I think it's fine.

I'm fine and you're fine.

- I'm glad you're fine.

- How 'bout
forgettin' it this time?

- Okay.
- Lettin' it go.

- Okay.

(Ruth laughs)
(gentle music)

(Carl exhales)

- It's not quite
Broadway but it does have

a humble hometown feel to it.

- Yeah.

That was for that kind of thing.

- We all got our kinda
thing, don't we Prince?

I hope you find yours soon.

- All right.
Well (sighs).

- You know, it's disrespectful
to shake while standing up.

- Right.

(gentle music)

Well, this is a
interesting place.

- So, this old friend of yours--

- Sirom Newton.

- When was the last
time you saw him?

- Oh, about 40
years ago I'd say.

I stole $12,000
from him and left

him alongside the
road bleedin' to die.

- Hello there.

- Sirom, it's
me, Carl Robbins.

- Carl Mad Dog
Robbins (chuckles).

Hey man.

(Carl laughs)

Carl Mad Dog Robbins.

So good to see you.

- Oh, I don't go by
that much anymore.

- Look at you.

Long, long time ago.

When'd you get out?

- Four days ago.

- Four days?

- Four days.

- Really?

You've been walkin' around a
free man for only four days?

- That's right.
- Really?

You escape?

(Carl laughs)
(Sirom laughs)

Wow.

- Oh, this is Raquel, Rocky.

- Yo.
- Hey.

- Prince, how you doin'?

- Hi, welcome.

And you, I have so
many, so many questions

for you, you old bad influence.

(Carl chuckles)

But we can get caught up on

all those good
times later, right?

- We will.

- All right.

Why don't you come on back.

Everyone's winding down from
the gestalt awareness practice.

- Gestalt a-what?

- Yeah.

Gestalt a-what?

(Carl chuckles)

Come on back and meet everyone.

Nice to see you.

Can I introduce you to Rocky?

- Yeah.
- Hello.

- How you doin'?
- Hi.

- Yeah.

(gentle music)

Okay, all right everyone.

Time for the
Kool-Aid, my friends.

Just kidding of course.

We're beer folk here, anyway.

Before we start,
I'd like to take

the time to thank a
very dear friend of mine

and a couple of
new ones for takin'

the time to haul their butts

all the way out
here just to see me.

Thank you and welcome to
our little awareness group.

So, for the benefit of
our visiting vagabonds,

what we do here
is pretty simple.

We just clear away the
nonessential blocks

to who we really are,

and the only catch is you
gotta do it like right now.

Ready, set, go.

Be aware.

Be enlightened (chuckles).

So, anyone wanna throw
their hat into the ring

and tell us a little
something about themselves?

As long as it's it's
not boring of course.

Hello, Prince.

- Hi, I'm just listenin' today.

- Well listening, that's 68%
of the battle right there.

You sure you got
nothin' interesting

or maybe a little
lame to tell us?

- I'll try some of
this gestalt stuff.

- Well, why don't you go
right ahead my friend.

- My name is Carl Robbins,

somewhere south of 80 years old.

Not worth braggin' about.

Those were not favorable years.

But I did one smart
thing in that time.

I married my wife
and had my son.

Yeah, that's about
as good as it gets.

Once upon a time,
I told a young man

that he owed the world nothing,

that I taught him that taking

was more rewarding than giving.

And that was no lesson
for me to be preaching.

Maybe neither of
us were deserving

of much loyalty at that time.

But even among the fallible,

one's own deception
is still deception.

- Well, I guess all those
years weren't wasted after all.

I mean, some of us spend an
entire lifetime searching

for that kinda clarity.

And I imagine you
did a lotta pushups.

- Yep.

(Sirom chuckles)
(gentle music)

(water splashing)
(birds chirping)

I sold you a lot of codswallop

and then just left you alone.

- I swallowed that
codswallop with a beer chaser

and I woulda done
the same to you, man.

I was young.

I'd burn the city down
just to keep my feet warm.

I've knocked people
to their knees

just so that I could
feel a little bit taller.

So Carl, if you weren't sellin',

I would've found
somebody who was.

(gentle music)

- You know Sirom, we need
to feel we paid the price.

- I could throw you over.

How's that work?

- Be my guest.

(gentle music)

- Oh, yeah.
- Is he still alive?

- I'm not sure.

- What the hell is this thing?

- It looks (laughs),
you live here.

You're supposed to know.

New, exciting,
colorful and a vintage,

I don't wanna call it
boring, but I'm gonna,

black and white print.

(wings flapping)

Do you think the is like,

this art is meant to be like
an oxymoron or something?

- Yeah, but I think
this would look much--

- This cake doesn't
look exciting either.

Like, this cake looks like
it wouldn't taste great.

It looks like, old.

- Yeah, no it does.

I can't really look at the
picture though, I'm sorry.

(Rocky speaking faintly)
(bird trilling)

- Shh!

(gentle music)
(birds chirping)

Well, cowboy?

- You think you're
staying here don't you?

Look, Rocky, you
can't stay here.

You're just, you know.

- A kid?

Yeah, I know (chuckles).

That's why I called
my mom this morning.

She flies in tonight.

Wait, you were
trying to throw me

out at the nearest rock
quarry the other day.

- Sorry.

I just--
- Hey, it's okay.

You're off the hook.

Listen, I...I couldn't
sleep last night.

And I've had plenty of nights
where I couldn't sleep,

because I hated my stepdad
or was scared of my life.

But I don't know like,
last night I couldn't sleep

because I was completely
excited about being alive.

And Billy's very cute.

So, thanks I guess.

- Well,

I guess take care then.

- Take care then?

You're not gonna give me a hug?

What's wrong with you?

Gimme a hug.

Come on.

Ugh, weirdo!

Be good, Prince.

You were given the right name.

Live up to it.

(birds chirping)
(bugs chirping)

- Sage versus the Devil.

Oh!

It dwarfs every wonder the
silver screen has ever known.

(Sirom laughs)

- Well, you certainly know how

to sell a motion picture show.

- And you certainly know
how to make one memorable.

- Yeah.

- Yeah.

Carl, I know you came here
looking for somethin',

somethin' from me to
help heal up an old wound

that I just wasn't able to mend.

What you need my friend,
it lies elsewhere.

(gentle music)
(birds chirping)

- I had an old 1938 half ton,
no, ton and a half Ford truck.

And I was tryin' to make
enough money with it,

so I could get into college.

(engine sputtering)
(Prince groans)

- Please not right
now, not right now.

Come on, come on, baby, please.

Please, please, please, please.

Damn it!

Damn it!

- What's the matter?

What's the matter?

- The camshaft and the valves.

It's like three grand to fix.

- We can raise some
money, we can do that.

- Oh, we're not gonna
raise three grand.

Your preachin's not gonna get
that kinda money, all right?

It's done.

It's just done.

(birds chirping)

- Be here soon.

- You know, Carl, you
can get like a month

in jail for doin'
somethin' like this.

- Where I come from,
they call it recess.

- Well, I don't got time
for a month in jail.

I got things waitin'
for me back home.

- Well, if they're
waitin' for you back home,

they're wastin' their time.

- Oh, is that right?

Well, home may not know it's
waitin' for me, but it is.

Besides that why can't we
like hitchhike or somethin'?

Why do we gotta take a train?

Oh, you and that old map.

Look, your wife
may be crazy enough

to do this joyride
with you, but I'm not.

- When you travel with
chickens, you cluck.

When you travel with
eagles, you soar.

probably around somewhere.

check and see if he's home?

I just need a minute.

- All right.

(crickets chirping)

(water splashing)
(fishing rod squeaking)

Excuse me.

- Oh, hey, great.

Would you mind doin' me a favor?

There's needle nose
pliers in my tackle box,

and I've got a
little situation here

I think I can loosen (grunts).

Yeah, there they are.

(Hughie grunts)

Boy, I'm really good at
lettin' stuff (grunts)...

Here.
I think I can fix it.

Thank you very much.

(Hughie exhales)

I am really, really good at
holdin' onto stuff way too long.

Ya know, I bought this
at a PX in Okinawa

when Ronald Reagan
was president.

I won a $500 jackpot with it,

and I had this
thing for decades.

I was fishing with my wife.

We were fishin' for Muskie

and I caught a big one and she
screamed and I looked back.

I had the rod in one hand
and the reel in the other,

and her scream started
to turn into laughter.

And I got mad and
I vowed to fix it.

Took me about a week
then I fixed it,

and now it looks
like that I can stick

a fork in it 'cause it's done.

Hey, what's your name again?

- Prince.

- Oh (groaning)!

I'm sorry, hold on,
hold on, hold on.

I got a little spasm (groans).

Hang on, hang on.
I'll be okay, I'll be okay.

I did, ah.

Oh, boy.

Do you feel old yet?

- Uh...

- Ah nah, you're not old so,

'cause when you get
old it feels like

the last decade just
beat the crap outta ya.

You know the problem with old,

is it sneaks up on
ya and starts suckin'

on your bones when you're
young and you don't care.

So, what'd you come by here
for, to listen to my whine?

- I actually came on
behalf of a friend

of yours and hopefully
a good one (chuckles).

- Really?

Hm.

- Hello, Hughie.

Nice to see you, Son.

(birds chirping)
(water splashing)

- You clearly came
here for somethin'.

Deal with it quick.

(Carl's throat clears)

(Carl knocks)

- May I enter?

- Yeah, whatever.

- Nice house.

- Thanks.

(fly buzzing)

You need some
water or somethin'?

- Please.

- Don't have any ice.

- Water is fine.

(birds chirping)
(bugs chirping)

(glass thuds)

Thanks.

Much fish today?

- Nope.

Only got zebra mussels.

Comin' on boat
hauls and take over.

Just crowd everything else out.

- It doesn't sound too good.

- It's not.

- Glad to see you know so
much about fishin', boy.

(Hughie grunts)

Georgia.

- Georgia's been gone for
three and a half years.

Georgia's been gone a long time.

- That never gets easy.

She sounded like
a real nice woman.

- Oh, so you know a
lot about my wife, huh?

- Well, I got some letters

from old Kenny Stewart
from time to time.

Yeah.

Georgia Christine Robbins.

Child of the State of Delaware,

graduate of Columbia.

- Kenny's an ass.

He's been stickin' his nose

up other people's
business a long time.

(Carl chuckles)

- Well, yeah.

His favorite view was
always out the window,

that's for sure.

- Yeah, right (groans).

- Good to sit a bit.

Yeah, it sure is good
to sit for a bit.

(door slams)

(birds chirping)

Your mother loved the water.

That's why she made
me move to Washington

when you were just
a little fella.

- You know my wife,
oh the one that you're

an expert of because
of the prison letters.

You know, we had a hell
of a lifetime together.

It was short, but it was
real and it was real love.

- I know how fast a
lifetime can pass.

And I'm glad that you felt

that love and that relationship.

- I haven't seen a photograph
of you in a decade,

but I'll never forget the face.

But my memory is
distorted because you see,

I was lookin' at you through

a scratched up spit stained
piece of plexiglass,

and it made your
face look funny.

- Some things have
changed, Hughie.

- Yeah?

Well, you know
what didn't change,

was that mom got old
and died without you.

See, now I saw that and I said,

"No, I'm not gonna
let that happen.

"I'm not gonna get
old without love."

I thought, I was gonna
grab your face

and look you in the eye and
tell you how much I missed ya,

and that we could laugh
together and joke around.

But that's not gonna happen.

And you know that
.22 that you gave me

right before you went to prison?

Well, I kept it and then
I decided to sell it.

I drove through Temple

How many times did you try

and climb up and paint
our names on there?

(Prince chuckles)

- A few.

- Like, half a dozen times.

Then the police showed up
- Dear God.

- and totally caught you.

- Yeah.

Oh, that's right.

But you remember you
hid in the bushes

when I went and did that.

- My parents woulda killed me.

- Yeah, you were
like 25 years old.

- I'm a daddy's girl.

- (groans) That's
right, you are.

- You still tried
that one last time,

right before I moved away.

What were you
gonna paint, again?

- Prince loves Regan.

- So why'd it seem easier then?

- Smaller bodies
and bigger ideas.

in a deep breath,

and I inhaled everything

lungs for a moment,

as hard as I could and
I, I finally exhaled.

Oh, it's a robbery.

No, I don't know what I'm doing.

We're good.

Carl, we're good.

I don't (panting),
you're a good guy, Carl.

I wanted to be a
good guy like you.

You got nice shoes.

When I met you, you kept
tellin' me these great words

and I keep forgetting
these great words

you kept sayin' to me.

You always have good words,

and I don't listen to them.

I don't listen to them.

I'm trying to listen.

You had some really
great words for me.

You got nice shoes.

You got nice shoes.

(Prince sniffles)
(birds chirping)

- Come on, Son.

We got ourselves
a dragon to slay.

(birds chirping)

(Prince groans)

- Carl?

(bag rustling)
(birds chirping)

(Prince panting)

You know, there this
bank in my old hometown.

I had my first savings
account in that bank.

$16.

It gave me lollipops.

- What does
every dragon need?

A knight to slay it.

(birds chirping)

(hand slams)

- Thank you, Wade.

Oh now remember, next week
is free gifts on Friday.

- That's redundant.

- What's that?

- Free gift.

- Oh.
- A gift is free.

Just sayin'.

- Yeah, you're right.

I am usually so good
at that, too, really.

Like close proximity.

That's redundant.
(Wade's tongue clicks)

Okay.

Okay, bye, Wade.

(patrons chattering)

Good morning, Sir.

- Morning to you, Miss.

Firstly, that is a lovely
blouse you have on.

- Well, thank you very much.

That is very sweet
of you to say.

- And thirdly,
secondly (chuckles),

I take it this is the one

and only Apple Seed
National Bank & Trust?

- Well yes, Sir.

Founded in 1929.

It was actually the
first bank erected

in Apple Seed during
the mining years.

Prior to that,

it was the Apple Seed Train
Station built in 1872.

Much of the
memorabilia on display

right along the wall there.

- Well, you have a wonderful
memory for details.

- Oh, thank you.

That was just
because I practice.

- Practice details?

- No, no.

Practice my memory.

See, I'm also
actually an actress.

So, I practice
retaining information

so it helps me
memorize my lines.

I'd love to do
some local theater,

but I get a little nervous in
front of an audience still.

- Well, I'd say
you're an actress

with or without an audience,
just remember that.

- Oh my God, that is so sweet.

Thank you very much.

That just made me really happy.

Thank you.

- Well, along that note,

my third point is it's
something I'm not going

to enjoy saying and you're
not gonna enjoy hearing,

I would assume,
but I promise you,

this is going to be one
heck of an acting exercise.

- Um...

- What is your name, Miss?

- Ruby.

Ruby Sugar Stewart.

- Ruby Sugar.

I didn't know they were handing
out names that nice anymore.

Well, Ruby, I can promise
you that this moment,

as traumatic as it may seem,

has the potential
to transform itself

into something wonderful.

- Okay.

- Trust me.

(dramatic music)
(siren wailing)

(police scanner chattering)

Well yes, Sir.

I do understand that this
is a mighty big felony,

but I can promise
that no one in here

has been injured
or hurt in any way.

Well, let me help assure you.

Has anyone in here
been hurt or injured

in any way other than
just this inconvenience?

Well, they're all shaking
their head no, Sir.

Negative.

(police scanner chattering)

Now, Sir, I appear to
have some company here,

so I will have to call you back.

Thank you very much.

Hello, Son.

- Carl, what the
hell are you doin'?

- Well, apparently causing
a hell of a ruckus.

(police scanner chattering)

- Hey, is everybody all
right, everybody okay?

- I'm not hurt.

Nobody is hurt.

Everything's actually fine
and Carl has been very nice,

in fact he even let me press

the secret alarm and I
always wanted to do that.

(police scanner chattering)

- Okay.

Listen, Carl...

Yeah, you don't have to
raise your hand, it's okay.

- Oh, sorry.

I was just wondering how
long this is going to take

'cause Mr. Rykard here has a
doctor's appointment at 11:15.

- Mr. Rykard, you will
make your appointment.

Ruby, do you by any chance
have a glass of water?

Anyone else?

Anyone wants some water?

Glass of water?

Anyone?

One, two, three.

Four, please.

Oh, wait?

Son, do you want
a glass of water?

- I don't want any water.

- Yeah, what, can you just tell

me what's going on right now?

I was like a little in my
head 'cause I'm not sure.

- Just four.

(police scanner chattering)

Ruby is very nice.

She wants to be a
motion picture actress.

- All right Carl, listen.

We gotta let 'em
know no one's hurt.

All right?

So, we just start lettin'
people out one by one,

let 'em see everybody's okay.

- We can't do
that, Son, not yet.

Now, first they're gonna
assess my mental state.

And then they're
gonna try to talk me

into releasing the hostages.

And by that time we'll be fine.

Ruby, would you mind
telling the officers

that no one in here has been
injured or harmed in any way?

And please, I hope I'm
not being too terrifying.

(siren wailing)

Oh, oh, Ruby?

Yes, yes.

There's a good
audience out there,

and you might just
make the papers.

(siren wailing)
(police scanner chattering)

- Hello.

(onlookers cheering)
(onlookers applauding)

Thank you.

My name is Ruby with
a B, Sugar Stewart.

(engine rumbling)
(onlookers applauding)

- Woo hoo!
- Thank you.

Thank you.
- Woo!

- I just want everyone to
know that everything is okay.

Carl is real nice.

I mean like, really nice.

He's the best.

Thank you.

Hey Joe.

Thank you.

(onlookers applauding)
(onlookers cheering)

(police scanner chattering)

- Carl.

Just give me the gun, you know?

I'm gonna tell 'em
you had a long trip

and that your head just isn't...

- That's right, Son.

You just go out
there and tell 'em.

Open up your mouth
and let it all out.

- This isn't good.

This isn't fine.

I wasn't gonna rob this place.

All right, maybe I was but,

it's 'cause I was alone
and I was sad and afraid

and you do dumb things
when you're sad and alone.

So, just give me the gun.

(police scanner chattering)

- Lollipops.

My wife loved lollipops.

I am pretty impressed with you.

- Impressed in what way?

- You could just have moved on.

- Move on?

Carl, you're robbin' a bank.

- That's very true, Son.

It was a bad road to take,

and I shouldn't be
robbin' this place,

but here I am.

(gentle music)
(police scanner chattering)

- So I wouldn't.

(gentle music)
(police scanner chattering)

- Look out there.

What do you see?

- I see a bunch of
freaked out people, man.

- Kinda scary, huh?

- Yeah, it is to be honest.

- Well, that's a good thing.

You stop bein' scared, it's
time to start panicking.

- Okay, Carl.

Give me the gun.

- Take another look.

- Carl, the gun.

- Take a look out there, boy!

(gentle music)
(police scanner chattering)

Now what's lookin' back at you?

- Faces.

Scared, angry, confused faces.

- Think about it too much,

it can be a very daunting sight.

All those faces, all
that expectation,

those debts left unpaid,
those loves left behind.

Come here.

(gentle music)

If you look close enough through

all that chaos and confusion,

you can always see something
bright, something new.

Life is full of little plums.

Some you get to keep,
some you gotta throw back.

But you really
can't put a damper

on a life that gives you plums.

Good choices come
from experience,

but experience sometimes
comes from bad choices.

A bad choice ain't worth a damn

if you can't make
a good one from it.

(gentle music)
(police scanner chattering)

- Carl?

That was really nice, Carl.

- Thanks, Ruby.

(police scanner chattering)

(Prince sighs)

- Hello, Prince.

- How are you?

- A bit tired.

Been a heck of a week.

(Prince chuckles)

- Yeah.

How you doin'?

- I think I'm fine, just fine.

How 'bout you?

- All right.

No.

No, I'm not all right.

Carl, what were you thinking?

You just got outta prison
for crying out loud.

You got your whole
life ahead of you.

(Carl laughs)

- I'm gonna live to 160?

- Yeah, maybe.

You don't know.

I don't know.

That's that's what
life is, okay?

We don't know, man.

You know, I thought I had a
lot of things figured out.

Kinda thought the world
made a lotta sense.

I don't like all the
sense that it made,

but I figured I had it down.

One plus one equals
two and all that.

Then I met a man who
took my math book

and kinda threw
it out the window,

stole the heart of a thief.

Set someone free by
makin' him a hostage?

I danced with a woman
that had no legs.

And there was a time
where I would've thought

that didn't make a lotta sense.

Now just, it all just
kinda seems like life.

- You know what I never
thought was possible?

That I'd ever live long enough

to see a road I
once didn't take.

- You saw that road?

- Yeah, Prince.

I did.

- You know, you
could call me son.

(Carl sniffling)

- Son.

- I'd like to stop at this
little filling station

and buy each one of
these boys a Dr. Pepper.

I don't know, Dr. Pepper
seems like a good drink.

I mean, it gave you energy.

And yeah, yeah, it did.
- Yeah, I bet it did.

- All right.

I think they were
makin' Dr. Pepper

back then with somethin'
else besides sugar, you know?

- No, I don't know.

Is that the fact?

- Well somethin', somethin',

they were makin'
it with somethin'.

It was a little--

- Well, ya know, I heard that
Coca-Cola was doing that.

- Oh, Coca-Cola, okay.

- I'm not sure, but I
think Coca-Cola might've

been puttin' something in it

that gave you a
little extra zip.

(Carl laughs)
(Prince laughs)

- A little extra zip.

- Anyway, we stopped
at this station, yeah,

to get some Dr. Pepper,

and we were there outside,

it was the kind that
had the machine,

and this girl that I had
known in high school,

she came wheelin' up with
a little baby carriage.

And now, I didn't know that she

was even married or you know?

- Oh boy.

- But you know?

- Hate when that happens.
