Dr. Peters' office.

No, he's left for the summer.

I can give you his assistant,
Professor Gaines.

Yeah?

Is this Dr. Peters' assistant,
Professor Gaines?

Mm-hmm. This is the registrar's office.

William B. Johnson,
registered into Semantics 1,

has a medical report
to the fact that he's suffered

a nervous breakdown,

but not early enough
to withdraw from the course.

Dr. Peters must give him
a grade.

Just one second.

Give him an A.
An A? But...

He's the best damn student
in the department.

Just give him an A.

Hi. Can you get the trunk?

Shit.

Well, what's on for tonight,
smiley?

New balance here

in my psychedelic Day-Glo
jumpsuit,

reminding you ladies
to get over to Jeans West,

open 24 hours a day,

at 360 North La Cienega Boulevard
near Beverly, dominated by...

KGBS in "Love" Angeles.

And now it's
Paul Revere & the Raiders

featuring Mark Lindsay,
and "Just Like Me."

That's all there is.

Is this Bouquet Boutique?

May I speak to Maurice?

This is Mrs. Gaines.

Hello, Maurice.

No, no, the flowers for the
dinner party arrived this morning.

I need something
in a funeral wreath.

I just got one of those
telegrams today.

Ten dollars to what?

Fifty dollars?
Twenty dollars.

Well, how about
something sweet for $20?

Yes.

With tiny roses
and a bow that says,

"From your loved ones."

Emily Sanderson funeral.
Memorial Church.

Cameron, Missouri.

Yes, she's a relative.

Oh, just a great-aunt.

Oh, it's delicious.

Here. How are you doing?

Thank you.
Would you like some wine?

Yes, thank you.

How are you doing, Adam?
Fine, Dad.

All right, good.
Don't go away. Be right back.

...together, right?
You have every right.

She has all...
Your wife must be talented.

My wife, yeah.
Well, if you'll excuse me,

she has some talent.
What does she do?

Sings, dances.
She does everything.

Everything, she does?
Yeah. It's amazing.

She is going to be my next star.

Oh, boy.

Believe me, I know talent
when I see it.

My baby has it.

Fran, you should hear her
sing sometime.

"Dear Adam,

happy 12th birthday.

I hope your mother, Gladys,

will let you come
and visit me this summer.

I hear you're a fine, smart boy,

and I'd like to meet you.

With love, your great-aunt,
Emily Sanderson."

Emily, old girl, I never made it.

Who's Emily?

Look, um...

Why don't you go downstairs.
You're missing all the fun.

Oh, that's adorable.

Could I have it?

I collect little animals.

It's my hobby.

How's it going?

Good.

Here you go.

Do you think that smoking
pot all those...?

Come on, Roger.

You've been sitting around
too long.

You've got to play...
Oh, yeah.

Sweetheart, sweetheart,
you having a good time?

Having fun, Daddy.Good.

My father.

Armor. Son of a farmer.

Never had a pot.

Always had high hopes for me.

"This is a great
and beautiful country," he said.

Pioneer stock.

Do something good, Roger.

You could do something good.

Something worthwhile.

Do it while you can.

Something worthwhile.

What do you suggest?

Would you like me
to build houses with you?

You aren't exactly
the sort of a person

you pretend to be, are you?

Why, I'm not sure I know
exactly what you mean.

A schoolgirl manner.

You know, blushing,
stammering and all that.

I haven't lived a good life.
I've been bad.

Worse than you could know.

Well, that's good,

because if you actually
were as innocent

as you pretend to be,
we'd never get any...

Hi, friends.
Ralph Williams,

owner of the world's largest
Ford dealership.

Well, here it is,
that time of year once again.

Our big year-end cleanup sale at...

Excuse me, sir. I'm an usher.
Are you family or friend?

Um, family.
Adam Gaines.

One moment, please.

Excuse me,
there's a young man back there

who said his name is Adam Gaines.

So you're Adam.

Gladys and Roger's boy.

Glad you could come, Adam.

I'll bet you don't remember...

but I saw you when you were just
a teeny little bugger.

I used to help your mother
bathe you

when we visited her
for a week back in 1943,

when your daddy had that
marvelous radio program.

You were cute as the devil,

and smart as a whip even then.

I hear you're going
to be a doctor.

Um, PhD.

Semantics.

Uh-huh.

Oh, well, the specialists
are always in demand.

Our boy's planning
on being a chiropodist.

Mm-hmm.

Awfully glad you could
come here to see...

...Grandma Sanderson.

It's... it's a shame
you couldn't have...

made the trip

when she could have enjoyed you.

Who can find a virtuous woman,

for her price is far above rubies?

Strength and honor
are her clothing,

and she shall rejoice
in time to come.

She openeth her mouth with wisdom,

and in her tongue
is the law of kindness.

She looketh well to the ways
of her household,

and eateth not
the bread of idleness.

Her children arise up
and call her blessed.

Her husband also,
and he prays with her.

Many daughters
have done virtuously,

but thou excelest them all.

Favor is deceitful,
and beauty is vain.

But a woman that feareth the Lord,

she shall be praised.

Give her of the fruit
of her hands,

and let her own works praise her
in the gates.

Why, I told her years ago

to put some picture windows
in this house of hers.

Improve the resale value.

But Emily Sanderson,
she was close with a penny.

Well, come on in.
Everybody's waiting to meet you.

This is... This is Adam Gaines.

It's Gladys's boy,
from California.

Hello.
How are you?

Lillian.

He looks like Gladys.

Why don't you go out
to the kitchen with the menfolk.

Oh...

Well, now...

Here.

Oh, thank you.

Here's your soda pop.

Inez tells me you're
Gladys' boy, from California.

That's right.

Hear you're studying up
on semantics.

Well, just what is that now?

What, semantics?
Study of meanings.

Meanings of what?

The meanings of words.

How the meanings change.

Well, what for?
Words are what they are.

At least this man
always means what he says.

Well, what means one thing
to one person

may not mean the same thing
to the person he's talking to.

And then they really can't
communicate.

Meanings, huh?

Well, maybe you can just
set this man's mind right then,

and tell me what in the hell is
the meaning of those depressing

and pervert-type movies that you
people make out in California?

I mean, why?
You call that entertainment?

Well, some people
have different tastes.

Well, there's not just New York
and Los Angeles, you know.

Tell them that for me, will you?

Okay.
There's a whole country here

full of people looking for just
a good Sunday afternoon movie.

Not all that arty
psychological crap

they keep putting out
for New York and Los Angeles.

And I suppose you think
that kind of movie

is hot stuff, don't you?

Well, they got people
who just believe

anything they tell them.

I like all kinds of films.

Well, we're crying
for good musings here.

I mean, I got troubles of my own.

Why do I want to see people
out there suffering?

I'll tell you who I like,
is Julie Andrews.

I see.

Let me hear what side

of this fence you're on, anyway.

Why don't you just name me a
couple of movies that you like.

Well...

I like Blow-Up.

Oh, my God!

Well, now you just hit on it.

That damn movie.

And that was the name of it.

Two years ago,
me and the missus went into KC

just to, you know,
blow off a little steam,

see the lights.

Well, now how in the hell

was a I supposed to tell
from that title

that that wasn't
an action war movie?

Inez loves those.
Well, I'll tell you,

I got myself up
out of that theater

and walked right on out of there.

And believe me, I got every cent
of my money back too.

Naked women and all.

And suppose you just tell me
what in the hell

that movie was about anyway.

Well, come on.
You said you liked the movie.

You tell me what it was about.

Just wait a minute.
Wait one minute.

Now, what the hell
you getting mad at me for, huh?

Look, I'm not responsible
for that film.

You like the films you like,
I like the films I like.

No, you are not responsible,
but it's your kind that is.

Oh, come on!
Deny that!

Deny what?
You know, as a matter of fact,

I got a question
I'd like to ask you.

All right.
If you're not afraid to answer.

Anything you want.
Well, why doesn't a young man

like yourself,

present company excepted,
of course,

why doesn't he get up
off his behind and make a buck

and be willing to defend
his country, just like I had to?

What right's he got
to live off his family

until he's damn near 30?

Who's got a cigarette?

Hello there, Adam.

I'm Mrs. Hopper.
We saw you at the church.

And I just said to Jerri...

This is my daughter, Jerri Jo.

Hi, Adam.Hello.

I said, "Now there's someone
your own age

for you to talk with
on this dreadful afternoon."

We'll see you later.

You know, I was valedictorian.
A straight-A average.

Oh, only we used
another system. ESMI.

I'll probably be an art major

out of state next year.

Become a teacher.

I'm crazy about children.

What I really love to do is cook.

Oh, cooking is just a hobby,
of course.

I wouldn't want
to be a home-ec major.

Art is so much more creative.

Art and public speaking.

My father says either one
is good for self-development.

Your clothes are really unusual,
but very attractive.

I noticed them right away.

And your hair.

Oh, it really is very masculine.

It goes so well with your face.

I'd really love to go
to university.

I've thought of becoming
an actress.

But Mother says
it's too hard out there

for a good girl,
if you know what I mean.

She's a hick hooker.

And that old bat in the corset's

a lady pimp working funerals.

You know, you seem to be
thinking all the time.

I never met anyone
who looked so deep

and intelligent.

You must read a great deal.

I do.

You can't miss
the Cameron drive-in movie.

Jerri Jo, you show him
where to turn off at Route 10.

Adam, it is so sweet of you
to invite Jerri Jo.

You know she just loves movies.

Jerri Jo, now you remember,
no chocolate anything.

Don't they look cute together
in that car?

Put your hands
on the roof of the car,

take two steps back,
spread your legs,

keep your toes out.

Come on, spread your legs,
keep your toes out.

Okay, let's have
your driver's license.

Registration?

This car is registered

to Roger Construction,
Incorporated.

Step aside, please.

Anything else?
No.

Two coffees, two hot dogs.

I've got to get home.

That's the longest
goddamn double feature

I ever sat through.

Good night, Adam.

Good morning.

I saw your car
and I thought I'd wait for you.

I have to pick Mom up
at the beauty parlor.

Will you walk with me?

Are you going back
to California today?

You're staying here?

Why do you want to know?

Because I think
you'd like it here.

Because I think if you stay,
you'd ask me out again.

You do?

What was in that bag?

Two pair of heavy-duty trousers.

A pair of Big Mac work shirts.

And one pair
of Mr. Rough boots.

With the genuine neoprene soles.

Got a job for the summer.

Power and light summer crew.

You won't like it.

That's for men who never
went to school.

Suits me fine.

Um... is that yours?

Yeah.

That's my daddy inside.

We've got the Mogas Butane
franchise down there too.

Beauty parlor's
just around the corner.

Come on.

Well, Adam.

Come on.

Joanna, this is Jerri Jo's date
last night.

This is Dr. Gaines
from California,

and this is Joanna.

How do you do?
Pleased to meet you, doctor.

Thank you.

Uh, it's really a PhD.

You don't use the "doctor."

Adam, we are so proud of you
for getting your doctor,

we're just going to show it.

That's right.

Well, did you have a good time
at the drive-in last night?

Was it a good movie?

I'm not too high
on drive-in movies.

Well, good for you.
I am so glad to hear it.

Sitting in an uncomfortable car

with all those rowdy people.

Adam, the next time

that you take Jerri Jo out,
Mr. Hopper and I

will just take you to a nice
theater in Kansas City,

and we'll just make
an evening of it.

That sounds wonderful,
Mrs. Hopper.

Boy, did I get drunk last night.

Whew! Mm!

The old lady's so mad,

I'm glad I'm going to be gone
for three months,

because she is mad.

And I know I ain't gonna get
nowhere.

I looked at a '63 Chevy.

It sure is...

Fantastic family
you ever saw in your life.

I think I'm going to make
enough money off this trip

that I can go ahead
and pay for it.

Harvey Gavin.

Adam Gaines.

Oh, yeah, I can see
I'd like to be around

when them hands of yours
start giving you hell.

Don't worry about them, though.

Yeah, I can see you ain't used
to hard work.

Boy, you got yourself
one hell of a good job now.

We gonna bust us a path
50 feet wide and 20 miles long.

Kaboom!

Don't you go cutting off
nothing but them limbs.

Harvey, you're drawing every
skeeter in the county.

Skeeters come in
on the smell of sweat.

Hmm.

They ain't coming in
to read my manual.

TV repair?

Hell, take you a hundred years
to read that thing.

Orville, technical stuff's
got to be absorbed.

This is a wonderful profession.
I've made up my mind.

Better money than this?

Shoot, boy.

When I drive by
my Dodge panel truck

with "Harvey's TV Repair"
written on the side of it,

I'm just going to say,
"Honk, honk.

You get out of my way,
you half-assed ditchdigger."

You bastard!

Stop it!

Dig up that, you son of a bitch.

Hey, Adam! Adam!

Come in here and get
your buddy off this blanket

before I kick ass.

Adam! Why you...

This man's got himself
a bodyguard.

Let me out of here!

Here.
No, thanks.

Oh, now, come on.

A man's got to keep
his belly full.

Let me see, let me see.

Come on.

Just keep spitting on them.

I'm a college man myself.

Missouri agriculture college.

Good school?

The best.

I just do this work
to stay in shape for football.

Coach doesn't want us
to get too flabby or soft.

I'm not a jock, though.

Animal husbandry.

That's a good field.

Oh, yeah.

It's a pretty good-sized school.

Over 500 students.

Only 40 of us qualify
in animal husbandry.

What kind of work you aiming for?

Well, most go into farming.

But I always had my plans set
for bigger things.

As a matter of fact,

I got this job all lined up.

Position at Sunny Days Cherries.

They supply most of the Midwest.

Yeah, that's great, man.
I really envy you.

You know what you want.Yeah.

My folks are just tickled pink.

And there's this
real sweet little girl

who's going to be the wife
come next fall.

You got yourself a girl here?

Yeah.

Yeah, I met one.

Hey, don't scratch
that poison oak, man.

Pester you to death, boy.

What the hell am I supposed to do?

Mix that up.

A dash of poultice.

It's better than any doctor
could prescribe up.

That's mud.

God's own mud.

Try this.

I remember we had this kid, Adam.

It was my first year on the gang.

He was working this high-voltage
line out in Chillicothe.

Well, I had to go to the can,

and this bastard straw boss
says, "Sure."

Well, they'd been laying for me,
all old millers on that gang.

So I came out of bushes
hitching up my drawers.

You know, they was all
just laughing

till I thought they'd crap.

Was it poison oak?

Uh... poison ivy.

You know, and it was
worse than yours.

Got me all everywhere.
You know, I squatted down.

Oh, no.

Yeah, that wasn't
the worst part either.

See, I just got married.

And I still
was in the habit of popping

back over to Raytown
every now and then,

see my little bride
when the old thought hit me.

Well, you should have
seen her face.

I told her all the time
she was pregnant,

"That kid is gonna be born
with a case of poison ivy."

You got a kid?

Oh, hell. Four.

Yeah, and a good little woman.

Alma.

Got a good little house too.

Me and brother built it.

He and his kids live downstairs.

Yeah, we got a good little setup.

See, Alma works in a diner,

and sister-in-law looks after
all the kids.

And what I send home,
we do real fine.

Hey, take a gander at this.

This might be a profession
that'd interest you too.

Takes a bright man.

See, I got this one other thing
to do, too,

before I go into business
meeting the public.

Got this place picked out
to make my teeth pretty.

How's the poison oak?

Oh, it's fine.
Just fine.

Yeah.

It ain't the mud.

It's the talk.

Talking's the cure for itching.

It's called psychology.

Yup.

You sleep tight, Adam.

My deal.
Five-card draw.

Hey, how long does
it take to get into town again?

You stick close to old Harvey.

I knows where the chili's hot
and the women are clean.

Uh-uh, mm-mm.

Now you save this.
You'll need it.

And you use this
for having a good time.

A man's got to kick up his heels,

but there ain't no sense
in him going broke.

Hey, boys!
Yeah?

We gonna bust us
some little fillies, right?

Right!

Right.

We're gonna get ourselves
a handful

of something other than
a pick and shovel tonight, boy.

Whoo!

How do I look?

You look just great.

Well, if this man don't set
on twitching

right before it feels good,

then they just ain't got
what I want.

Let's go to Cleo's.

Pussy!

Oh! Pussy! Pussy! Pussy!

Harvey, what the hell's
the matter with you?

What you mean?
I lost my damn cat.

Hey, Adam?
What the hell are you, huh?

Some kind of preacher?

Ain't them old juices
balling up yet?

Come on, boy.
Let 'er rip.

Come on. Give a rip.
Let her go. Come on.

Harv Gavin.

Come on, give me a kiss.

You sexy old bat...
Oh!

Oh, ain't Harv ever gonna get
enough of that?

Not till he drops dead,
sweet thing.

Well, you get yourself
on in there and tank up,

and maybe you'll leave
us grown women in peace.

There's one I wouldn't mind
coming to shake my hand.

God, boy.

You got a grip like iron.

You got a hand just like
my first husband had.

Rough to the touch,

but gentle to a woman.

Go on, get yourself in there.
Blow off some steam.

Mm!

Didn't I tell you this man's been

a short-haired pointer any day?

Look at that. Mm!

Hi, Cleo.
Hi, Pearlie.

What'll you have?
I'll have pink ladies.

Oh, pink ladies. Right.

Come on, man.

What are you gonna have?

I'm gonna have a Manhattan.

No, you're not.

What have you got?

Well, what do you want?

Couple of Schlitz, how's that?

Hey, fellas, they blew away, bam!

Heads up!

Well, here goes nothing, boys.

You're just... You're just a card!

He's just crazy.

Here. Here.

How did I get...

with pictures like that?

What do you got over there?
Give it to me.

Oh! Yeah!

Oh! This is better
than the other one.

Oh!

I can't believe it.

I cannot believe...

Mm!

Another dead soldier.

Another round.

Oh, Harvey,
if we weren't drinking,

you're not going to be able
to get up.

But I had a few today.

Harvey, these girls have got

dishonorable intentions toward us.

And I ain't holding them down.

Yeah, everybody chill out.

It's that way, old buddy.

Foam.

He wanted to talk to me.

Why don't you look
at the pictures, Mavis.

No!

Good night, boys.
See you tomorrow.

Whoa, whoa, whoa.

Out time. Time to go home.

Everybody ready?

Good night, Cleo!

Good night.

Hello, Mrs. Hopper?

Uh, hi.

Listen, I'm sorry
I'm calling so late.

Yeah, this is Adam Gaines.

Yeah, hi.

Um, is Jerri Jo there, please?

Oh, she's not.

Uh, no, if you could
just tell her I called,

and I'll call her back again.
Yeah.

Yes, it's good to talk to you,

and I'm sorry I'm calling so late.

Good night.

Oh, you lucky son of a bitch.
You got all five fingers, huh?

They're all right now!

See if it makes the round a bit.

Yeah, the bastards swell up, huh?

Boy, she's purpling like hell.
You got yourself a humdinger.

Crap, that ain't nothing...

You got a hell of an out.

Well, they'll be putting you
on something easy for a while.

I don't want to lose my job, man.

Oh, don't worry.
A man like you,

he work himself back up
in no time.

Yeah, you better
pass good now, boy.

Hang on, I'll lower you down.

Come on.

Adam!

I'm so happy to see you, Adam.

Well, may I come in?

Oh, yes, sure. Please.

Mom and Daddy have gone
to Kansas City today.

They'll be sorry they
weren't here to say hello.

Come in the kitchen.

I'm just baking an apple pie.

We heard about your accident.

You did?

Yes. The doctor,
Katzburg,

was your cousin Inez's
brother-in-law.

It was really something
the way you took that pain.

That must be awful hard work.

Oh, it's not bad...

if you don't mind poison ivy,
heat prostration,

rattlesnake bites.

I'm... I'm just so happy
to see you.

I've never in my whole life
been so happy to see anyone.

If I would have had
one wish this morning,

it'd be you be standing
at my front door.

Thank you.

Thank you very, very much.

Would you like to see
my high school album.

It's got my valedictorian speech
in it.

It's in my bookcase,
up in my bedroom.

I'd love to read your...

your valedic... Ahem!

Your valedictorian speech.

This was
Cameron High School annual's

over at Emily Sanderson's house.

They were all
on thick black paper.

Haven't changed much, though.

The people look different.

Do you think I'll look
that funny in 40 years?

You look funny now.

And you don't?

All those mosquito bites and...

that old peely sunburn.

I got poison ivy on my legs.

Is it catching?

No.

No, it's almost all gone.

I've never been happier
in my whole life.

That's very beautiful.

You make me so proud.

Well, you make me so happy.

Sweetie, we're home.

There's Mom and Dad.

Wait'll they see
what I've got here.

Look who's here.

Adam.

Oh, what a wonderful surprise.

My, don't we look all outdoorsy
and handsome.

So you're Adam, huh?

How do you do?

Hear you got banged up, son.

Yeah.
Glad it wasn't serious.

Well, now just sit down.
Sit down.

Oh, listen, Adam,
something you got to try.

Hope you don't mind sitting
in a lady's model.

That's something, huh?

I grabbed this big piece
of the wedding cake.

Thank you, honey.

Um, no, thank you.
I'm stuffed.

I've been eating all day.

A person who turns down
wedding cake

will never marry their true love.

How's your hand?

It's fine.

But how's your hand?

It's fine.
Doctor put a soft bandage on.

It's feeling much better.
You'll be here Saturday?

Sure. Yeah, I miss you.

Me too.
Yeah.

Hey, look, I got to go.
Harvey's waiting.

Don't go.
I'll just be a while...

Can you talk a little longer? No, they're waiting for me.

You want to make me an apple pie?

Yes, I'll make you an apple pie.

I'll see you Saturday.

All right.

Bye.

Bye.

And when you called,
Mrs. Hopper,

well, I was more than glad
to drop everything at the lab

and come down here for lunch.

Here you go.
Well, isn't this fun?

Our own little picnic.

Now, Ed, why don't you
sit over there by Jerri Jo.

Excuse me, pal.Sorry.

Jerri Jo, excuse me.

Oh, this looks pretty good, too.

You're not from Kansas City,
I take it.

California.Mm.

Ahem, pharmacy's my field.

Semantics and ditch digging.

That's an interesting combination.

Ed, your mother tells me

that you have just a wonderful
surprise for her.

Oh, yes, ma'am.

I just got the Rexall franchise

out at the new Green Ridge
Shopping Center

at Lee's Summit.

Isn't that wonderful?

Some girl's gonna get herself
a lucky prize.

I got my eye on that new housing
project south of Kansas City.

I think I'll be able to swing

one of those nice French
provincial houses next year.

Jerri Jo,

those are those houses
that you admired so

in the real estate section
of the Kansas City Star?

It was last Sunday.
Yes, ma'am. The same.

I cut out the article
and saved it.

Are you going to eat all day?

I might.

Tell me about all the other
girls you've been in love with.

No.No, really.

No, really.

But why me?

What do you love about me?

Well, you know, you know what's
really the most important?

What?
Because you're here right now.

You might get poison ivy,
you know?

And you know what I really love?
I really love...

I really love your apple pie.

Am I a lot different
from all those other girls?

I mean, sometimes I worry
that I don't know a lot

about a lot of things.

I don't think you should
worry about anything.

You're doing just fine.

I wouldn't trade you
for all the girls I ever knew.

Well, why won't you
tell me about it?

Because I have given up
my evil ways.

I'm a...

I'm just a little country boy,
working his tail off all week,

coming into town to see his
woman on the weekends.

That's it.

That's all there is.

Hey, come get a cigar
from the new pappy!

You mean you?
Yeah!

Alma's getting a little boy!

Eight pounds, and just as pretty
as his daddy!

That's great!

Hey, Harvey,

how'd you come to get married?

Oh, well...

you get a little too drunk
one night,

and they start talking about
how much they love you

and how they want
to take care of you,

you talk like you got
to protect them.

Well, next day,
they got you hooked, boy.

And they're knocked up to boot.
That's all it is.

Did you love her?

Well...

I guess I proved
I like to be around her.

I got five kids.

You know, pretty soon...

I'm gonna win me a bigger bottle
in the game,

and I'm gonna find me
an empty store

I can pick up real cheap.

And it's gonna happen, boy.

Harvey's TV Repair.

Well, you ought to keep
Missouri in mind.

Wonderful opportunities
for a young man.

Good life.

You have to meet
the arts and sciences dean

up at North Central Missouri
State Teachers College.

It's just 20 miles from here.

My brother-in-law
is a friend of his.

Well, that really sounds
very interesting.

Well...

big fish in a little pond.

Adam, come look at this
wonderful little house.

Well, this house sells for 17,500.

Might be a good investment,

so I thought I'd come over
and take a look.

Yeah, it's a nice little house.

Nothing around here for miles.

Well, that's nothing against it.

No, sir, I don't invest
in pigs in a poke.

You see, I happen to know
the county supervisor,

and there's a branch of Route 69

that's coming right through here.

So I thought I might just buy up
the whole acreage,

put in 10 or 15 of these
to start with,

sell them for 17,500.

Make a nice little bundle.

My father builds houses.

Say, that's wonderful.

I just might write him.

You know, this community
is developing,

and it's catching up.

Housing development out here
would be just the ticket.

You put a shopping center
down there,

a couple gas stations up here,

a bunch of billboards
running along up there.

Hey, hold on, son.

That's progress.

Now, I'm not the one
that's building this highway.

People need it, so it comes.

People are begging for housing.

They can't live in a pasture,
no matter how pretty it is.

Adam, aren't you coming in?

Your father's going to build
15 houses out here

right in a row.

And that's just for start.

That's good.

I wouldn't wanna live out here
in the middle of nowhere.

Everybody needs neighbors.

Jerri Jo...

What's going on?

You know, sometimes people,
they got to work things out.

Everything's just fine.

Right. Today it's fine.

What about tomorrow?

Maybe next year.

Jerri Jo,
are you irritated with me?

I love you.

No.

No, no, it's not that simple.

I don't understand it.
Is something wrong?

Look, ahem...

I don't want to be stopped
in one place

by somebody's half-assed idea
of what's proper.

I'm not even sure I want to teach.

Maybe I wouldn't be
a good teacher, I don't know.

I feel... I feel like I'm crammed
for 20 years with school,

and I'm not prepared
to do a goddamn thing.

I want to...

Well, there's...

Like, I see you and me...

traveling all across the country.

Europe, maybe.
A couple years.

Just go.

I thought you liked it here.

I like it here.
I love it here.

But it's you.

That's what's important.
You and me.

Okay.

Hey...

we're two new people, all right?

Let's try everything.

Let's not be satisfied.

And then,
if you still want that house,

we'll buy it and we'll go
to the supermarket.

We'll get that station wagon.

We'll see.

We'll talk about it later.
Please?

Nobody ought to eat alone.

Sorry the women ain't in tonight.

Hey, that oldest Peavine brother
in the back with Harv

is that Mavis's husband.

Cleo, you make the best chili
in the world.

Well, you sure eat enough of it.

Adam.

Adam.

Adam, they got me
by the short hairs.

Damn it, I always told you
to save money.

I'm in for 100 bucks, Adam.

They got my whole bankroll.

Adam?

Don't let them skunk me.

I'm hot, Adam.

I'm rolling.

That's your whole sum of pay?

Well, why are you
carrying it around for?

Does this mean nothing to you?

You go bust their asses here.

Son of a bitch.

These are loaded dice!

Ooh, hey, now,
you cool your butt, hillbilly.

You hear?

This money's mine.

Come this time,
we can't cause trouble.

That's my TV repair money.

You got no right
to take a man's life away.

Now you stubborn trash.

Get the hell out of this saloon.

Yeah, well, give me that.

In a pig's ass!
Oh, yeah?

Well, let me tell you something,
big shot.

I made your old lady, Mavis.
I did her every which way!

You son of a bitch!

Stop!

Aah!

Get out of here, hillbilly!

Come on!

Get off him now.

Get off!

Oh, my.

My, oh my, oh my.

Aah!

Come on, let's get out.

No, no, no, no!
Let's go.

Adam...

Shut up! Shut up!

Let go of me,
or I'll kill you too!

Shut up!

I'll kill him!

Let's go!
Where'd they go?

Let's get in the car
and go find them!

Come on.

Come on! Let's go!

There they are!
There they are!

There they are!
Come on, back up!

I'm gonna kill you,
son of a bitch!

Do you see them?
We've lost them. We lost them.

I'm gonna kill
them son of a bitches.

Come on, Harvey.
Come on.

Let go...

Hey, shut up! Shut up!

You let me go!
Shut up!

Adam...

Oh, my God.

They took all my money, Adam.
It's okay, Harv.

They treat me
like white trash dirt!

It's okay, Harv.

That's two years savings, Adam.
I'm broke!

It's your money too.
I can't do that...

It's okay, Harvey.

Hey, I want to thank you, Adam.

Kept me from
killing a man tonight.

That's the honest God's truth.

Yeah, I know when it's on me.

Oh, yeah, would have been
the end to old Harv.

Don't want no more truck
with the police.

You know I've been in jail?

I laid open a man's head
with a beer bottle.

Frankly, got my own room
in Jackson County.

Drunk tank.

Yeah, but this one
would have done me in.

Well... I don't think...

Well, I ain't ever gonna be able
to pay you back your money.

Your sum of money.

Come on, forget it, will you?

You know what
you got over everybody else?

I mean, you know I studied out
about you?

What's that?

Well...

you're different from us.

You got brains.

And now you got yourself
the balls to go along with it.

Yeah.

You got a leg up in this world.

And I'm thanking you.

Hmm.

Here, you take it.

You got the means
to do something with it.

I think I'm gonna be traveling
this line the rest of my life.

Busting brush.

Harvey, Harvey, you got it made.

Don't stop driving.
You can make the whole world.

God, boy.

I'm tired of running.

Running around circles.

It's running.

Man says to me,
"You're born alone.

You die alone."

But nobody ever told me

I'd live all this time
in between alone too.

God, I love my old Alma.

Love the beautiful kids.

That's all it really is, Adam.

Hmm.

Here I am, stuck...

running around the countryside,
nailing hookers, and...

...getting puke drunk.

You promise me you'll look
into that TV repair.

I promise.

Summer crew
gets laid off next week.

Orville, Leroy and Elwood and me
be going on up to Nebraska.

God, it's over.

Marry me.

Yeah.

Yeah, if you want a ring
we can get it today.

Adam.

You take care.
Take care of yourself.

Elwood, I'll see you.
Adam, the best to you.

And you take
good care of yourself.

We're gonna be thinking about you.

It's been a good summer.

Yeah, for you especially.

You know, it ain't every day

a man finds himself a good woman.

Our boy's engaged.

Told you all along
he weren't no queer.

Oh, Orville.

Here.

It's from the boys.

I don't know how to thank you all.

I'm very touched.

Use them in good health.

The manual.

You got that TV manual?
Oh, yeah.

Get moving!

I love you!

Adam.

Errands.

See you later.

Excuse me.

Hi, Mr. Bruin. How are you?
Hello.

Oh, Adam, how I do so hope
you'll be happy.

Thank you very much.
Adam, congratulations.

Thank you.
Oh, Adam.

Oh.

Excuse me.

Good luck to you.
Thank you very much.

Thank you.

Isn't this a lovely
engagement party?

Congratulations, son.
Thank you very much, sir.

Oh, listen, Adam,

I got you that appointment
with the dean

over at North Central
Missouri State.

And my brother-in-law fixed it up,

so you got nothing to worry about.

Thank you.

Anything for you, son.

And oh, by the way,
I've got a charge account

over at Mr. Swank's
men's store.

So if you want to,
you can just go over there

and pick yourself up
a nice suit and shirt

and tie, the works.
Charge it to me.

Thank you very much.

Hello, stranger.

You having a good time?

Good time.

So, what I mean by...

You two.

You have got to talk to Miss Odin.

Come on.

Oh, but you don't have
a honeymoon.

Oh, yes, yeah.

Oh, that's fun.

...you would never have known...

Oh, Jerri Jo, it's so romantic.

But I suppose this means
that you won't be going

through sorority rush week
at college.

I really don't need
a sorority now.

But you are going
to college, aren't you?

Oh, of course.

I'll be going
wherever Adam teaches.

You a schoolteacher too?

I'll be coaching basketball
and teaching math and hygiene

here at the high school this fall.

Have you picked out
your dish pattern yet?

Carl and I chose aux moss rose

with the matching silver pattern.

We haven't looked yet.

Oh, you always get

the best of everything, Jerri Jo.

...visit Adam's parents.

You're going to be living here
with your folks?

We were thinking of traveling.

Oh, Adam, not that stuff again.

We haven't quite decided yet,

but it'll probably be
at that new development.

Oh, Franklin and I
would love to buy out there!

Let's go, Jerri Jo.

Right now.

The one outside of Kansas City,
you know,

with the two-car garage
and the French provincial...

Um...

We are out of vanilla ice cream.

Will you go to A&P and get some?

Well, I see you're bossing
your future son-in-law already.

No. I love him to pieces.

And, Adam, take your little
red car.

I'd be delighted.

Excuse me.

Vanilla.
Get a lot of vanilla.

Where are you going?

I've been sent for vanilla.

What's the matter?

You made your world
so damn small, Jerri Jo.

So neat...

and clean...

and pretty.

Isn't that what everyone wants?

It's not what I want.

Not for me.

What about me?

I love you.

I really do.

But I don't love
what comes with the package.

Wait.

After they've gone,

we'll go
to Emily Sanderson's house.

Will you come to the A&P with me?

I can't leave the party.

I understand.

I'll talk to you later.

We'll work everything out.Sure.

I know we will.

Three dollars.
