"All right !" "Let her go !" "It floats" "Not bad, uh ?" "It's fantastic" "Can I get on ?" "You paid for her" "I'm the one who has to ask permission to board" "Go ahead" "Here you go Frank" "No I'll take one of these" "To Frank Morrison for building us the most beautiful boat in the water" "Thank you !" "Thank you !" "That boat was the bargain of the century" "I made a price, kept the price" "And if you build any more at that price you'll go out of business" "Theresa, I should explain to you my theory of noble failure" "But Danny's got a game" "See you" "So how come your boyfriend's not coming with you?" "Danny said he wouldn't play if he saw Rick in the stands" "He's really got it in for the guy, doesn't he?" "Coach !" "Coach !" "How are you?" "Hey, Frank, how's it going ?" "Where's Dan ?" "He isn't here" "Why not?" "I asked him to stay, but he chose to leave" "I don't know where he went yeah" "This is Frank Morrison" "Oh, really?" "What is that Danny?" "Okay, we'll be there" "He's at the police station" "Mom !" "Dad !" "I can't believe you would stow away in some complete stranger's car" "Where did you think you were going ?" "No..." "Anywhere, What difference does it make?" "Christ, Danny, what are you thinking ?" "What's the big deal ?" "I'm sorry, okay?" "I just didn't feel like playing today, so I booked" "Mr. and Mrs. Morrison Please come in" "Wait here" "The first time we picked him up, it was for breaking windows" "Danny insisted that we had the wrong kid" "He wanted to hire a lawyer, we remember" "That was two years ago after you guys separated" "Six months later we got him in here for truancy" "That was right after" " Right after we got our divorce, yes" "All this acting out is Danny's way of trying to get us back together" "Look we've logged a lot of hours a lot of counsellors" "Clearly, it hasn't done us any good" "Any idea what set him off this time?" "Yes, I'm sure it's because I'm getting remarried" "Oh, boy who's the lucky guy?" "Rick Barnes" "I know Rick" "Of course, you do Everybody does" "Congratulations then" "Well, they do, honey" "Your mom's getting married" "I know you don't like it I get it" "But you're not going to use it as an excuse to get wild" "Okay, Dad" "No, I'm not kidding, Danny" "Your mother's got a right to move on with her life" "I think you ought to give this guy a break" "What do you think?" "Dad, do you ever wish that things could be like they were?" "Well, Danny, maybe you don't remember," "But things weren't all that great" "I remember you were home every day" "Yeah, I know" "The truth is, your mother and I tried hard to make it work out but we were arguing all the time and frankly" "I didn't think I was doing you any favours by sticking around" "Guess what?" "The mast is up on the big boat" "So we're still going sailing Saturday?" "Yeah, you bet" "Great" "See you Saturday" "Saturday" "Frank, will you hold on for a second ?" "I'm sorry, Mom" "It's okay, sweetheart" "I love you I love you, too" "Bye, Dad" "All right, so he said that he would give Rick a break" "At least it's something" "Yeah, cool, thank you" "Your're still taking him sailing on Saturday?" "Yeah, why?" "It's just that Danny takes his cues from you" "And I thought that maybe if you asked Rick to go sailing with you guys Jesus Susan I mean, giving him a pep talk is one thing" "But taking your fiance sailing with us?" "Come on !" "Jeez !" "I'm sorry I shouldn't have asked" "Damn it" "You okay?" "Yeah, I'm okay" "Susan asked me to take Rick sailing with us this weekend" "So Danny and he can bond" "Maybe it's a good idea" "What ?" "Danny needs to accept the fact that his mom is getting remarried" "And you're going to have to accept it too, Frank" "I have no problem accepting it" "I don't want to hang out with the guy, that's all" "So what really bothers you about sailing with Rick?" "You afraid that Danny might get to like him?" "Maybe I don't want him bonding with him" "Maybe I don't want him to have a new dad" "Remember my friend," "His ex-wife ran away with Keith Barrel, the football player ?" "We'll his kid admired the guy so much" "That he took his name" "And then eventually stopped seeing his dad altogether" "Come on, Frank, Danny loves you." "You're his Dad" "Diane, these things happen" "And Rick Barnes" "Ever since he got in town, everyone's just falling all over him just cause he's loaded" "He's got more than just money, Frank" "Yeah, what?" "According to everyone, he's a very nice guy" "Well, I'm a nice guy, too but no one's falling all over" "Yes, you are" "I'm just a boat builder A poor boat builder at that" "All right, it's just like a car, okay?" "You turn left to go left, and right to go" "Port" "No, that's left" "Right, right, right" "And that's starboard" "I know what you mean" "Maybe we should stick to lefts and rights" "That way" "That I understand" "I'm impressed, Danny" "You know a lot about boats, man" "You know, my Dad and I, we spend a lot of time out here" "I can see why, It's beautiful" "Thanks for including me today, I'm having fun" "No problem" "There are so many beautiful places in the world" "How did you end up here?" "I invested in this pharmaceutical company" "They came out with this new blood pressure medicine" "Stock just went through the roof" "It was like winning the lottery" "It gave me a chance to do something different with my life" "You know, Frank, I'd never try to take your place with him" "I just want a shot at being his friend" "I tell you what There are two things you have to remember with a kid" "Number one you have to show them that you love them" "Number two, give them stuff" "You mean bribe him, right?" "If you bought him a new baseball g love, you'd be right in with him" "Sounds like a plan" "Danny !" "Ready about !" "Pull it in." "There you go" "See you, Rick" "See you later, Dan" "Frank, you know the sea Cliff Resort at Buzzard's Bay?" "The dump?" "Sure What about it?" "Actually I just bought it" "It's beautiful" "The idea is to try to turn it into something beautiful" "How would you feel about building me some boats?" "We're so busy lately" "Come on Frank You would be doing me a favour" "I'll think about it" "So" "Are you maybe feeling a little bit better about your mom marrying Rick, or what?" "I guess, yeah" "Good" "But I'm still not going to the wedding ?" "Why is that?" "It would just be too weird watching mom get married" "You have to go" "Cause you're going to break your mother's heart if you don't" "You going ?" "No, but that's different" "We were married It's different" "See?" "It's too weird for you, too" "You're right, you're right" "Okay, I tell you what, I'll go if you go" "Deal ?" "Deal" "Good, we'll make fun of them together" "Yeah" "Susan sure did hit the jackpot" "I'm kidding, Frank" "Hey, Dad" "Look at you You are so handsome" "I'm doing great, I guess" "Wait, I got to show you what Rick got me" "I'll be right back" "Dad !" "It's a Cal Ripken g love" "That's great" "Everyone please take your seats" "The ceremony is about to begin" "Danny time to get ready" "Hey, folks, look over here" "Susan do you take Rick to be your lawfully wedded husband for richer, for poorer, in sickness and in health till death do you part?" "I do" "Rick, do you take Susan to be your lawfully wedded wife for richer, for poorer in sickness and in health, till death do you part?" "I do" "I now pronounce you husband and wife" "You may kiss the bride" "You're a trooper I'm proud of you" "Appreciate you coming" "Friend of Rick's Congratulations" "Long time no see" "Yeah, Ray, we got a lot of catching up to do" "I can't wait" "Thanks for dressing up" "You look beautiful" "Thank you" "Congratulations" "I'm glad you came" "Thanks Who's your buddy?" "He's an old business acquaintance" "I'm surprised he even showed up" "I know, you looked surprised" "What do you mean ?" "You just looked surprised" "Diet Coke and champagne to go" "How are you?" "You're a friend of Rick's, right?" "That's right" "Frank Morrison" "Ray Coleman" "Nice wedding, huh ?" "She must know some pretty good tricks to make old Rick settle down" "That's my ex-wife Susan" "You ex?" "You're kidding me" "No" "So where are you from?" "Bay area, California" "Came all the way out here for the wedding, huh ?" "I had some business in DC" "So how long you know Rick?" "We go way back, went to school together" "Really?" "What about it?" "Oh, nothing" "He told me that you were in business together, or something" "Excuse me, Frank Catch you later" "It really is too bad" "What's that, Ray?" "You registered" "I saw the gift table" "Registered at Crate and Barrel, wow" "The dishes, table cloths, soup tureens" "You registered for a soup tureen ?" "That's what I would've got you if I'd been invited earlier" "In fact, I could have been your best man" "I appreciate we got some things to discuss here, Ray" "But now's not a good time" "Are you busy?" "What I'm going to do is put you up in a motel for a while outside of town, and I'll get in touch with you in a couple of days" "Why can't I stay here?" "You've got plenty of room" "That's not a good idea, Ray" "I'm very lucky, Danny" "I'm fortunate to have three great men in my life" "Who's number one?" "You are, sweetheart" "You'll always be number one" "I'll see you guys later" "Where you going ?" "I got some shopping to do" "All right, well, have fun" "Come on, Rick, throw the ball" "See you later, sweetheart" "Good catch" "Come on, you could have had that" "I should have had that?" "Yeah" "You should have had that" "My g love, it's not broken in all the way" "G love's not broken in yet, all right" "Is your arm not broken in yet?" "That was practically right to you, Rick" "That was practically right to me" "My dad would have had that" "Who's you dad, Shaquille O'Neal ?" "He used to be captain of his baseball team" "He's great all sports" "You know, your dad is going to be working for me" "I hired him to build me some boats" "Did he tell you that?" "No, he didn't" "If your dad's such a great baseball player, how come he never taught you how to throw a baseball ?" "I can throw the ball" "Then why are you standing with your feet like this and putting the ball everywhere where I'm not?" "When you throw a baseball, you point your foot to somebody so the ball goes to them" "Just throw the ball" "I'm going to throw the ball" "But I don't want to run or jump for the ball" "I want the ball to come to me" "Aim and concentrate" "Take it easy !" "I am taking it easy How the hell are you supposed to learn anything out here?" "Come on, turn the ball loose" "You throw like shit" "You know, Rick, I don't want to play anymore" "Suit yourself." "Bring the g loves in when you're done" "Don't ask me to play again if you're going to be a brat !" "You want about a half inch up" "Just trim it off like that" "All your strokes are even and forward like so, right?" "And you use the other side of the brush, as well" "This is the important part, make sure that the edges don't dry" "Because then you'll get distortion" "No open spots You ready to try it?" "What if I mess up?" "That's a very interesting question, 'cause that's what I asked my dad" "And that's what he asked his father" "So do you know what your great grandfather told your grandfather who told your father who's telling you now?" "What?" "That's why God invented sandpaper" "So this is okay?" "Yeah, it's very good" "So what happened with that whole window thing ?" "I told Mom it was an accident" "Yeah, well, tell me it was an accident" "I just got mad, okay?" "Why, because he had a problem with the way you threw a ball ?" "No, he threw it hard and he tried to hurt me" "Come on, Danny, was it any harder than a line drive coming at you?" "No" "Maybe he was just trying to prepare you for a real game or something" "Why do you have to work for him, anyway?" "Tell him you don't want his money, that you don't need anything from him" "I can't do that" "Why not?" "Because the truth is, Dan" "I love making these wooden boats, but people don't want them anymore" "When your grandpa made them, they'd line up from here to Maine" "Just to have one" "But they want plastic now" "It's cheaper, they can afford it" "You understand ?" "Yeah" "I was in the donut shop this morning" "You know who I saw?" "You know that girl Katie that you like, what's her last name?" "Lewis?" "she was there with a girlfriend" "She was talking about you, she said, he's nice or something like that" "Since she got her braces off, she's a total babe" "I know, and then she said that she thought your dad was a fox" "Here you go, Frank Have a nice day" "You too" "How's it going ?" "Frank Morrison, I met you at Rick's wedding" "Jesus, of course !" "Ray, right !" "You want to sit down ?" "Sure" "Sorry Frank, yeah" "I'm getting really bad with faces" "It must be early Alzheimer's or something" "It's been a while since the wedding" "I wouldn't worry about it" "I was just surprised you're still here" "You said something about just being in for the day" "Yeah, I decided to stick around, grab myself a little R R" "Tell you what, Frank, now that I've been here for a while" "I can see why Rick really fell in love with the place" "I'm actually thinking about looking at some real estate myself" "No kidding" "I kid you not" "Well, if you're serious about it, I know a realtor" "Sam Jones, he'll hook you up" "You know that I'm noticing ?" "I haven't seen any adult bookstores in this town" "No kidding" "I kid you not" "Just the man I wanted to see" "I owe you a call Good to see you" "You're a busy man" "If you weren't so busy, you wouldn't be getting" "Southport's Man of the year award" "Yeah, well, it's a slow year, we all know that right?" "How's the backhand coming ?" "Coming along, want to play tomorrow?" "Let me give you a call" "Give my best to everybody" "I will" "Open up, Ray" "What the hell were" "How did you know I was in town ?" "What are you doing with my wife's ex, Ray?" "Having eggs" "Why did she leave him?" "He was great" "Told him I was thinking about buying some property here" "And he offered to find me a realtor" "Maybe you and me could be neighbors" "I had a good reason for wanting you to stay out of town, Ray" "You talk too much You always have" "Maybe I'm not the only one" "How do you think I found you?" "When we were on the inside doing our little stretch" "We'd all take our best shots at imagining" "Where you'd run off to spend our money" "You're lucky it was only me who figured it out or you would have had all three of us for wedding guests" "What about Tommy and John ?" "What about them?" "What are you going to send them their share?" "So?" "Don't you want to know how I found you?" "Yeah, of course I do, Ray" "I remember this one time you were drunk and telling me how crappy your childhood was" "Except for this one summer you spent on the Maryland coast" "Where there was clean air and friendly people" "I ain't saying you were easy to find" "I mean, I only had a general idea of where to look and a lot of times I came this close to just giving it up" "But then" "then you made the papers" "You know, I'll tell you something, Ray" "You know what I came to hate most about working outside the law?" "Having to associate with scumbags" "You found yourself a lawyer to get yourself off" "Maybe that makes you smarter than me doesn't make you better" "I'll call you, Ray" "I'm sick of you stalling me, Jack !" "I told you, Ray it takes time to put this kind of money together" "Name's Rick" "It's funny how quick you can forget a name" "Rick" "Stay out of town, Ray" "You don't belong there" "Well, I was right, the doctor said pregnant" "Baby, I'm so happy That's so great" "Oh, Susan, I bet you it's going to be a boy, too" "You want to bet me on that?" "What's wrong, honey?" "Nothing" "I just didn't expect it to happen so soon, that's all" "You know how much I wanted to have a baby" "I'm happy" "I know you do, I do, too Promise" "You just worried about Danny, huh ?" "Ya I'm just first married and..." "Baby, it's hard to handle, You know for kid..." "Danny !" "Dan, Don't !" "Sweetie, I'm sorry I'm sorry" "I did not mean it for you to find out this..." "Leave me alone, Mom !" "Danny?" "Danny, can you at least try to be happy for everybody?" "No !" "Danny, please don't !" "Please don't let him ruin this" "This is the happiest day of my life" "I'm sorry, I'm sorry" "Just give me two minutes I'll be right down" "Diane, it's me, is my dad there?" "I have to talk to him" "No, honey, he's not home yet" "When is he coming home?" "Soon, I guess, Danny, are you okay?" "Tell him he's got to come and get me," "I have to talk to him" "Who are you talking to?" "Take me to my Dad's house." "I want to go now" "No, this is between us" "You and I are going to sit down here and we're going to talk this through, okay?" "I know that you're upset, sweetheart, but you have to believe me when I tell you that a baby is not going to change the way I feel about you" "I know, Mom, I'm number one, remember ?" "Check out of your room Meet me out front at seven" "Did you get it all ?" "Yeah, Ray I've got it all" "All right, I'll be waiting" "About time" "What did I miss?" "Excuse me guys" "I got to go into town for a little while, but it shouldn't take long" "Okay, will you wait?" "I'll walk you to your car, okay?" "We're not through I'll be right back" "How do you think the conversation's going ?" "You don't understand" "I feel like I've betrayed him, or something" "Stop it, will you?" "You haven't betrayed anybody" "He's just upset He'll get over it" "Listen, I'll wrap this thing up as soon as" "I can and I'll be home I love you" "Please drive carefully" "It looks like there's a storm coming in" "It's been a pleasure having you" "Mr. Coleman Come back anytime" "See you around Take care" "Put it in the back" "Good - bye and good riddance" "So where you off to?" "Miami Beach" "Starting tomorrow" "I'm going to be working on my tan and a case of Cuervo" "If you ever get fed up here in Frontier land come on down" "Miami's got no appeal for me" "None whatsoever" "I'm going to have a kid" "Get the hell out of here" "Isn't that great?" "You're really going all the way with this" "" Leave it to Beaver " thing" "Two kids?" "Danny's not mine" "That's got to be tough, putting up with some other guy's brat" "I couldn't do it" "I put up with the damn kid because I got no choice you know" "I got to make a stop here" "Why?" "You don't think I had that kind of cash on me did you?" "No, I got it stashed up here at a brickworks I own" "Comes in handy for stuff, Jesus !" "What?" "No, it's just that I've never been out here before at night" "And I can't see a goddamn thing cause it's pouring" "Are you kidding me?" "No, I'm not kidding you You see anything in this shit?" "Jesus !" "What are you, lost?" "Relax, it's around here somewhere." "Let me just look at the map, all right?" "The map's in here" "I got a flight to catch !" "Stop bitching at me !" "look in the back for the map" "Jesus Christ" "I don't see no goddamn map" "It's in here somewhere" "You see it?" "This is unbelievable !" "Wait till you see what you got back here" "What's going on ?" "It's Danny, Rick He ran away" "Are you okay?" "I'm fine" "It's okay, Mr. Barnes Your wife got a call from Mr. Morrison" "Danny showed up over there" "Thank God, you want to go get him?" "Hold on, Mr. Barnes There's more" "What is it?" "He told his father he saw you kill a man" "He told his father what?" "He claims he was hiding in the back of your Suburban" "He says that's where he saw you do it" "Susan, what would make Danny say something like this?" "It's obvious," "Rick, it's Danny's way of getting back at us for the baby" "We should head down to the station" "And we'll be needing the keys to your Suburban" "I know what I saw, I'm not making this up" "He killed a guy" "Danny, are you sure you're not doing this because you're mad at Rick?" "Diane, please" "Danny, let's go over this again, all right?" "Take your time, start from the beginning" "Don't leave anything out" "Send them in" "It's your mother and stepfather" "They're going to join us" "No Dad, please no I don't want to see him, Dad" "Danny" "A already told you, he never said his name" "Dad ?" "Just answer the question It's okay" "And you say that you heard your stepfather and this man talking about money" "They were supposed to be going to get some money" "Only, Rick killed him instead" "Danny, stop this, please" "He said that he loved the baby and that he hated me" "Sweetheart, listen, I know that we've hurt you," "But what you're doing isn't fair, it's not right" "I'm telling the truth" "No, Danny, you're doing what you do when a situation comes along that you can't handle" "Look, he knows the truth, he knows what he did and you're just going to sit there and let him get away with it, Dad" "Come in" "Johnson just called in from the brickworks" "Excuse me" "So, no charbroiled skeletons?" "If a body was incinerated in a kiln like they got over there, it would take a forensic specialist" "I am not wasting any more time or money on this sick kid's bullshit story" "David, phone call, line seven" "Hold on" "Stevens" "It's the garage Okay, go on" "There was" "No visible evidence at all at the brickworks or, for that matter, in your truck" "Keys are at the front desk You all should go home" "Danny, let's go home" "I'm not going home with him" "Danny, we are going to go home and talk about this okay?" "Dad, please don't make me go home" "Susan, let him come home with me" "No, Frank, every time he has a problem, he comes running to you" "I want him to come home now" "Dad, don't make me go" "Jesus, Danny, knock it off !" "Dad ?" "You don't believe me, either ?" "You're asleep right now This is a dream" "You're dreaming that someone's got their hand over your mouth and it's hard to breathe" "and you can't wake up, can you?" "can you?" "Now, you had a dream about a murder" "And it felt like it was real" "It's only a nightmare" "You don't want every moment of your life to be a big screaming nightmare do you, Danny?" "Better wake up" "He wants me to pick them up?" "Have the port lights come in" "I'm expecting them this afternoon" "All right, call and make sure" "Hey, how you doing ?" "Good morning" "How are you, Frank?" "Rick" "You got a hell of a place here" "Frank, I just want to let you know I'm not taking what happened last night personally" "I just look forward to getting past it" "But on to something more positive here, I do have the start- up money for the Seacliff, $50,000" "When do you think you could start building the boats?" "You know, when I went home last night," "I couldn't even think about sleeping" "But here's what I did think about" "My son is living with you in your house" "And I have absolutely no idea of what kind of man you really are" "and, honestly, that scares the hell out of me" "Well, Frank, you're a good dad, you know" "But before you start letting your imagination" "Run away with you here," "I'd ask you to remember something" "It's true that you may not know me so well, but you do know Danny and he lies, I know that" "He lies to his mother his grandmother" "His teachers, the police" "Just about everybody, but" "But what?" "He doesn't lie to me" "Hard as I tried, I couldn't think of a sing le time" "I didn't kill anybody, Frank probably not, Rick" "I'm glad to hear you say that" "As long as my son is living with you under your roof," "" probably" isn't good enough" "Jesus Christ, Frank, who's this guy, Ray?" "What about him?" "He's your school chum he's your business acquaintance" "The other day I saw him, he was looking for real estate" "Ray Yeah" "So now it's Ray I supposedly killed, is that right?" "I tell you, Frank, trying to be a stepfather" "To a child that hates your guts, isn't exactly a picnic" "I thought you were on my side for this" "I'm on Danny's side" "Give my best to Diane then, Frank" "Right" "I just think it's a good idea if he stays with that's all" "I'm not having this conversation with you" "I know that Rick threatens you" "He threatens me, all right" "You're so wrong about him" "You don't even know what he's really about" "You're the one that I don't really know anything about anymore, Frank" "Do you think that I so desperately need a man, that I'm going to endanger my own child by marring a" "Danny" "What are you doing here?" "Come on, Danny, let's go" "No, he's coming home with me" "He's scared of the guy It's not right" "What do you get?" "Have I ever stopped you from seeing him?" "This is not about custody" "Danny, please get in my car" "If you want to fight me for custody" "I don't want to fight you for custody !" "Please don't do this !" "Hold on a second, Frank" "This is none of your business" "What if I make it my business?" "Don't !" "Frank, don't do this !" "I'm sorry, Mike" "Dad, that was so cool" "Put your seat belt on" "That was awesome" "Knock it off, Danny" "You know what I've just done?" "It's called kidnapping" "How could it be kidnapping ?" "I'm your kid" "It just is It doesn't matter" "So you believe me now?" "Yeah, yeah" "What are we going to do now?" "I don't know" "Dad, watch out !" "You never struck me as the kind of guy" "Who would exploit the emotional problems of his son to make a play for custody" "Sergeant, I know you have a history with my son" "I know that's why you're having a hard time with this" "But this character," "Ray Coleman he was at the weeding " "When Ray Coleman showed up at the wedding," "Rick Barnes wasn't happy to see him" "But there's more they had two different stories about how they met" "Maybe Ray Coleman is a little confused" "But he wasn't confused" "Maybe he'd been drinking, come on now" "You can go now Mr. Morrison" "Your ex-wife isn't pressing charges" "And, for the time being, neither are we" "By the way, I checked with the police in the" "Bay Area" "No Ray Coleman was reported missing" "That's not good enough" "Good-bye, Mr. Morrison" "Jack, look, it was not my intention to fight for custody" "But now I have no choice, do I ?" "Right !" "Okay, all right, I'll see you there at 10." "Thanks" "That was Berman He's tough, man" "But he's good, he's the one who handled the whole divorce thing" "Just have to figure out What?" "I'm sorry, Frank" "I can't believe that you have actually managed to convince yourself that this man" "This man ?" "This man who only wanted to help-This man ?" "Do you want me to ignore the fact that my son is living with a killer ?" "is that what you want?" "This fantasy of yours, it sure does give you a good excuse, doesn't it?" "For what?" "Excuse for what?" "An excuse to hold on to your old life" "I know Danny's your son," "And I would never ask you to choose between us" "But I won't hang around while you take Susan on in some insane custody battle" "Diane, I have never failed Danny, ever" "And I can't fail him now not when it counts" "I'm sorry" "I'm sorry too, Frank" "But I can't do this" "Rick, sweetheart will you please hurry up?" "I don't want to be late for this" "Calm down will you?" "Moms always win these things, right?" "No, it's never a sure thing, Rick" "You all right?" "I still can't believe this is happening" "You know, Susan ever since Frank hit us with this custody thing, there's something I'd like to talk to you about" "About what?" "Well, I feel like I've done" "Everything I can but stand on my head with" "Danny's concern" "And he won't give me a break." "There's no way" "I know and I'm sorry sweet pea" "There's nothing for you to be sorry about" "It's been hard on everybody" "But maybe if Danny went off to live with Frank for a little while" "That wouldn't be the worse thing in the world for everybody" "What?" "I'm just trying to think about what would be best for everyone, dear" "Rick" "Susan things get really tense when Danny's around and the doctor said if you get stressed out, you could lose the baby" "I don't give a damn what the doctor said," "Danny's my son" "It's bad enough he hardly talks to me anymore" "If he goes to live with Frank" "I'd be lucky if I ever see him again" "Rick, we talked about this" "I'm sorry" "Danny's not going to go anywhere," "I promise you that, okay?" "Dan, listen up" "Whatever the judge decides today" "I want you to know that your mother loves you remember that" "I'll see you there" "All right" "Love you" "Love you, too" "I'm ready to go" "Mom?" "She's bringing the car around," "Danny She can't hear you" "I'm not afraid of you" "I don't give a damn if you're afraid of me or not" "What I want to know is, do I need to be afraid of you Danny?" "What do you mean ?" "This custody hearing thing that you have us all going to today" "if we come home without you" "Dan that's going to upset your mom" "and like I said to you I can't allow that to happen" "Now, I know that you love your dad very much" "How would you feel if something happened to him?" "Look, I'll do whatever you want" "Just, please, leave them alone" "I want both parties to know" "That a child of Danny's age is old enough to have a voice in determining which parent he would be better off living with" "Now, that being said call your witness Mr. Berman" "Thank you" "Your honour, we'd like to call Danny Morrison to the stand" "Hello, Danny" "Danny Morrison ?" "Yes, sir" "How old are you?" "I'm 12, sir" "Twelve, so we can't swear you in" "But it is your word of honour when you sit in that witness box do you understand that?" "Yes, sir" "Good, then let's get to work" "Counsellor" "Thank you, Your honour" "Hello, Danny" "I'm going to ask you a few questions you all right with that?" "All right, let's go back to the evening of October 18th" "That was the night your mother cane home from the doctor with some news just tell what happened" "I found out that my mom was going to have a baby" "Yeah ?" "How did you handle that?" "I guess I kind of freaked" "Go on" "After that, I wanted to go and see my dad" "How come?" "Cause I felt like I needed to talk things over with him" "You and your dad are pretty close then ?" "Yes, sir" "All right, Danny, just take your time and tell us what happened next" "Well, I hid in the back of Rick's truck cause he was going into town, and that's near where my dad lives" "And then" "And then he stopped at this office building and" "I jumped out" "What?" "I ran to my dad's house," "And I made up this story about seeing him kill some guy" "Danny, what are you doing ?" "Tell them the truth" "This is the truth, Dad" "Did he threaten you?" "You keep this up Mr. Morrison," "I will have you removed from this courtroom" "This is not how Frank sit down" "Let me ask you something, Danny" "Do you want to give it another try with your mom and Rick" "Or do you think you'd be better off living with your dad ?" "I'd like to stay with my mom and Rick" "Look Frank" "I know what happened today" "I'm glad somebody does." "Drink?" "I'm not going to drink with you" "Frank" "Too bad" "You ought to go home" "Okay Frank" "Danny lied" "Again" "But at least he's not living under the same roof with a killer" "I'll drink to that" "No, this is how you lost Danny the first time" "Come on Frank let's go home" "That's the best offer I've had in a while" "You get fresh Frank" "I'll make it real" "It's my day to see him Susan" "Yeah, I know it is" "What?" "I tried talking to him but he just went racing out" "I'm sure he just feels badly about lying to you" "I'm sure it'll be okay I'm sorry" "I have to go," "But I promise I'll tell him to call you" "Cheeseburger and french fries" "Can I get you anything to drink?" "Diet Coke" "Sounds good" "Took me 15 years to get one of these." "How long you been here?" "Been here about two years but I being here for a long time" "Two years" "At the rate you're going, we'll be naming the town after you" "Thank you very much, I appreciate it." "Thank you" "I'd just like to say thank you to the men and women of Southport" "For recognizing me with this honour, I feel flattered to be included" "Hey, Dan" "Hey, Dad" "You're a hard man to get a hold of lately" "What are you doing here?" "What is this about, Frank?" "I'm just trying to talk to my son" "Ten o'clock at night?" "It's not your business" "Frank, do you really think" "That showing up here drunk in front of your son" "What is that supposed to make him want to spend more time around you?" "Are you crazy Frank?" "What are you doing ?" "Screw you, Patterson !" "Just because this asshole's got some money to spread around you don't give a shit who he is !" "Dad why don't you just go home?" "Dad you dropped your wallet" "Dad wait up" "Sorry Danny I shouldn't have come here" "You dropped your wallet" "That's not my wallet, Dan" "Dad, you have to stop making trouble for him" "So, Dad, please just lay off, okay?" "How are you?" "What do you want?" "Nothing much" "Just five bucks" "You wouldn't happen to have $5 you could lend your old step dad would you, Dan ?" "No" "You don't?" "Maybe we should check your wallet" "Where's your wallet, Danny?" "I don't know" "You don't know?" "Don't you think you should probably start looking for it?" "I really hope you didn't lose that, Dan" "Start looking for it" "I didn't tell him anything, Rick" "Maybe you think I've just been fooling around with you is that it, Danny?" "All I did was say I was sorry for not being home" "Bullshit !" "I swear to God, that's all I said" "You're a little fucking liar, aren't you, Danny?" "I'm telling the truth, Rick" "I hope so" "Does Ray Coleman sound familiar to you?" "Ray Coleman ?" "That name doesn't sound familiar" "Would you check your register ?" "Because my sister's really worried about him" "Here we go, Ray Coleman" "Checked in on September the 8th and checked out on - check the 18th" "Yeah, October 18th" "How about a telephone number, address?" "I could check his bill" "Yeah, yeah" "Here we go, C, Coleman" "These are just the local calls" "What's this?" "Pizza Hut" "How about this?" "He called this a lot" "Yeah, he liked the ladies" "You patty?" "Who are you?" "A friend of Ray's" "Ray?" "Coleman" "That shit owes me money" "Join the club" "Can I talk to you?" "I didn't know Ray that well, we were just killing time" "You know how it is" "Yeah, I can't believe this guy" "He never even told you where he was from?" "No" "What did you guys talk about?" "We didn't do that much talking" "We weren't doing that" "We were watching TV" "I don't know what Ray likes better to screw or watch basketball" "At least he gave me this" "I know that lighter Let me see" "Oh, yeah" "It was my birthday a couple of weeks ago" "I like this lighter" "It's not even real" "Yeah, but I like the horseshoe thing" "Buy it from you How much ?" "I don't know, it's a pretty nice lighter" "$25" "Cool" "If you can just have this dusted for prints" "I'm sure we'll find that this Ray Coleman's got a record" "And if he does then we know that Rick Barnes will have one, too" "A lot of people have handled this lighter" "The lab could only manage to lift off one clean set of prints" "It turns out they belong to a convicted felon" "Her name is Patty Walsh" "Prostitution, Drug use" "Hey, Frank" "I'm glad I ran into you" "About last night, we both got a little bit hot under the collar" "And I felt terrible about it" "Recognize that?" "Probably fell out of Ray's pocket when you pulled him from the truck" "What are you doing, Frank?" "You touch so much as one hair on my son's head and I swear, as God is my witness" "that'll be the last thing you ever do in this world" "You're the second guy today who's been in here looking for Ray Coleman" "You again ?" "What do you want?" "What basketball team did he root for ?" "What are you talking about?" "You said that he liked to screw and watch basketball, what team did he root for ?" "Chicago" "Ray Coleman" "Three" "Convictions in Racketeering Case" "Oh, God" "Is Detective Stevens there?" "No, this is Frank Morrison" "When will he be back?" "You have an e-mail address there?" "Thank you No, wait, listen" "When he gets in, have him check his e-mail" "And have him call Frank Morrison at the boathouse as soon as he gets it" "Thank you" "As you can see, this venerable building a long time fixture in the Southport community" "Continues to bum" "It just keeps ringing, Mom" "It's okay, sweetheart You know how careful Dad is" "I'm sure he's fine He's fine" "No, Mom, Rick said he'd do this !" "He said he'd hurt Dad !" "He killed the guy, just like I said, and he threatened to kill Dad, too !" "Forget it, Mom, you won't believe me, anyway" "Danny, what are you talking about?" "Danny, we're getting out of here" "Mom?" "Now" "Sweetheart, I didn't hear you come in" "Just got back" "Danny, you go wait in the car" "Where are you going ?" "There was a fire at Frank's place and the boathouse burned down" "What?" "Danny wants to go and make sure that Frank is okay" "You want me to take you?" "It's okay" "Danny's really upset and I think it's best if I take him alone, okay?" "Stevens" "What is this?"
