" I actually just started my own company." " Oh." " Congratulations." " Thank you." "Oh, you're just gonna need a few stitches." "You, uh-You're pretty crowded out here." "I haven't been here much at all really." "Well, why would you need to be?" "Can I ask you, uh, who does your landscaping?" "Oh, my receptionist's son." "I throw him a bone every once in a while whenever I can." "But, uh, between you and me, he's a lazy kid." "Right." "Now I do have some rental properties available if you're interested." " Really?"

"I'll see you Saturday?" "Yeah." "Ahh." " Hi." " Hello." "Um, I'm Joel Herrod." "Dr. Palmer asked me to, uh, come by and pick up some property list." " Oh, yes, of course." " Right." " Hang on one second." " Thank you." " There you are." " Oh, thank you." " Mmm." " All right." " You take care of that hand now." " Oh, I will." "What?" " What you giggling' about?" " You'll never believe who that was." "I assume it wasn't your husband, or I'd be shot through the head." "It's not like you to be worried about jealous husbands." "I've skated by this long." "Mmm." "That's what I like about you." "Carl, you're easy." " That's what they used to call me in law school- easy." " Mmm." "Were you the best?" "No, I skated." "My friends are movers and shakers now."

" I sure could use it." "Calvin, I don't want you to worry about these medical bills... that have been piling up on you." " Yes, Lord." " Oh." "Firstly, I'll make a few calls and get the hospital off your back." "Now, secondly, I, uh" " I see that there's another property that you own next door." "And if you would, uh, sell that to me as well... / th/nk / can sweeten the deal all the way around." "Sir, I-I don't- I don't believe I'm gonna be able to do that." "You see, that was my granddaddy's land... and it's been in the family ever since." "And I was hoping to leave it to my kids after I'm gone." "I understand, Calvin." "Then I think, uh, $25,000 is what we should work with." "$25,000?" "Sir, no disrespect, the house two doors down went for almost $40,000." "$25,000 is what the appraisal came in at." "I spoke with Mr. Duncan at the bank this morning." "Dr. Palmer" "You-You know, you're gonna be out of debt, Calvin." "Debt-free." "I'm gonna help you do that." "Just put your mark here." "See if you can get some of the Lord, Luther." "Prayer." " Hey." " Hey." "What up, Joel?" " How you doin'?" " How's the hand, man?" "It's gettin' better, you know." "Can I, uh- I talk to you for a second?" "Sure, man." "What's up?" "Well, uh, I actually came into a bunch of work lately." " I was wonderin' if, uh" " Shit, yeah, man." " I could pay you, like, eight bucks an hour." "That's cool?" " Eight bucks, man." " That's super cool, man." " All right." "That's great." " Thank you, man." " Thank you." " All right, I'll see you soon then." " All right." "All r/ght." " I'm gonna call you, man." " All right." "You don't want to work for him." "His daddy's an asshole." " Man, he ain't his daddy." " They're all their daddy." " And what, that's gonna keep you from gettin' a job, man?" " I'm lookin'." "I thought it was easy for a vet, especially one like you." "That's what you thought?" "That's what you thought, huh?" "Nigger, where the fuck you live at?" "I'm gonna get goin', Luther." " You got those all r/ght?" " Yeah, I got 'em." " You all right?" " Yes, I'm all right."

"You know, you're not supposed to see the bride before the wedding." " Yeah, I know." " Well, when I turned around... saw her standing there..." "I figured... the rest of my life was taken care of." "Yeah." "Niggers hadn't turned it all to shit." "No, you know what?" "You know what?" "You can say whatever you want in your own home." "But th/s?" "Th/s /s my home now." "Mom left /t to me." "Oh, / see." "Well" "You don't know what the hell I'm talkin' about, do ya?" "I do." "I think you're the one that just doesn't understand, Dad." "When y'all gonna say somethin' different to me?" "No." "It's a waste of breath." "How was the movie?" "Just I/ke every other film that plays /n th/s town." " You been busy?" " Contracts." "We have acquired three new properties today." "Doing well." "Closed the deal." "Moving on to the, uh, bigger, better deal." "Mmm." "That's good." "That's good?" "What, that's all you can say, is "that's good"?" "Ron, you know I don't care nothin' about owning' no houses." "Oh, it's not about the houses, Yvonne." "It's about the property." "The real estate." "I mean, these opportunities are too good to pass up." "There's opportunities everywhere." "What do you want to be, the biggest catfish in the creek?" "Are you-Are you happy with this small-town living?" "Yvonne, look." "I'm doing all I can to build this clinic so that we can get out of here" "I am tired of living in this small country town." " Oh, not again." " Yes, aga/n." "Look, I am sick and tired of hearing this!" "I don't come from what you do." "Your daddy didn't want to help us, and, quite frankly, I didn't see you fight for it." "So this is how you do it." "You see an opportunity, you take advantage of it." "You grab it." "And then you bu/Id, and you do /t aga/n unt/I you get where you want to be." "That /s how /t works."

"Yeah, my wife tells me all the time." "I have so much respect for Sarah." "Well, it's hard not to." " It's your first school?" " It's my second." "My first year was at this suburban school." "You know, great facilities, good students, good teachers." "It was too civilized really." "Listen, Mr. Malcolm..." "I've been teaching my students about what happened here... during the civil rights movement in the '60s." "I know that it must've been really hard for you to lose your father like that- murdered by a white man." "How do you know it's a white man?" "Well, wasn't he?" "I don't know that." "Somebody must know." "Yeah." "Somebody must." "He was gunned down in broad daylight." "There were witnesses around that said they didn't see anything." " I mean, these were black people." " Ah, they had no choice." " Everybody has a choice." " Mm-mmm." "No." "You have a choice." "Your parents have a choice." "Those folks had one choice, the same as my daddy- stand quiet or lie quiet." "I understand the choice that your father made." "You don't understand." "You can't possibly understand." "Here." "Gimme your hand." "Now, you see that?" "Hmm?" "It's not your doing." "But you'll never in your life understand." "Mr. Malcolm." "Mr. Malcolm." "So, / hear you d/dn't get your car fiixed." "It was a misunderstanding." "Yeah, well, he's in pain." "But a lot of people are." "You can't be afraid of other people's pain." "I'm not afraid." "I just don't like being put in a box and labeled." "Uh!" "Well, you will get used to that." " I shouldn't have to get used to that." " No." "But /t's a sure fact ofl/fe." "And here's something else you're not gonna like." "Once a lot of black people in town find out who you goin' around with... they won't be so friendly." "What about who I am?" "What I think, what I feel?" "It goes both ways." "Hey, Lonn/e." " What's up, man?" " What it do, Luther?" "Where you goin'?" "Have some of this." " Nah, I gotta get on back." " Take her home and come on back and get your head r/ght." "Nah, I told my wife I'm gonna help with dinner and stuff, man." "Dinner and stuff?" "Nigger, you 'posed to be the man." "Trust me." "I am the man." "But I ain't your nigger." "Anyway, a man don't sit around here drinkin' no 40-ouncer when there's work to be done." "Later, Luther." "Hey, brother." "How you do/n'today?" "Not as good as you, brother." "If I was any better, they'd have to bury my ass." "All right." "Take care." "Hey, brother?" "Stay strong." "Strong." "Fuck you!" " You know" " Just talk to me." "Tell me what it is." "We can figure it out." "Well, this isn't gonna work out, you know, Yvonne." " What?" " Well, you know, I" "Well, wait." "Are you telling me that you lost the love?" " Is that what you're trying to tell me?" " No, it's just" "What's the point, huh?" "I'll remind you." "It's okay." "Have a drink." "Come on." " Have a drink with me." " No." "I don't wanna have a drink." "I don't wanna talk." "I just want you to go." "Okay." "I'll leave." "But if you think that's gonna solve your problems, Carl, you're wrong." "It's a start." "I'm sor" " Hi." " Hi." "You look cute." "Come on in." "Uh, wait." "Um" "I" " I can't come to dinner tonight." "Why?" "I don't think that we should see each other anymore." "What?" "I" " I can't do this." " What'd I do?" " Nothing." "It's nothing that you did." "Then what is it?" "It's just who you are." "Wait." "Whoa." "Wait!" "Hey." "What do you mean, "who you are"?" "What I mean is that you and I are different." "You owed me 'bout five dollars for, like, a whole year, and I ain't said nothin'." "Don't you feel forJoel?" "Oh, h-how can you even ask me that?" "'Cause you're just sittin' there feelin' so sorry for yourself." "Why you always gotta throw blame around all the time?" "Hmm?" "I mean, you wanna blame somebody, look in the mirror." " What did I do?" " Come on, man." "I mean, listen to yourself." ""Niggers" this, "niggers" did that." "She broke up with Joel because of you." "Maybe you oughta look at your own life." "You don't know about my I/fe." "Don't I?" "Always easier to blame someone else than it is to look at your own self." "I guess that makes you the nigger, huh?" " All right then." " Carl." "Carl." "Do you think I like feeling this way?" "Well, how do you wanna feel, Dad?" "I wanna feel somethin' else." "Raul Malcolm." "He... was a man who stood up." "He did what was right." "Why didn't you?" "Same reason as everybody else." "Didn't want to end up like your daddy." "Somethin' I'll never be able to get right." "The men /n th/s town." "Had their way with just about... everybody- including' me." "I didn't mind being their boy." "I thought it was the road to the top." "I didn't believe that they- they'd kill a man... because he stood between them and the bank." "And they ran right over me." "How could you live with that, Herrod?" "I'm about done." "That's the way /t /s for you." "But /t doesn't g/ve me any sat/sfact/on." "I'll go to my grave... never having seen the man that killed him." "What would you do if you did?" "I don't know." "But I'd do somethin'." "Then I'll take ya." "Let's go." "Ernest Hatch." "Yeah?" "I want you to meet..." "John Malcolm." "Th/s here /s Ernest Hatch." "He was a- a rich man's puppet, just like me." "Huh!" "Ernest here is the man that shot your daddy dead." "Is this what you want?" "No." "No." "Well, hello, Doc." "You know you're not gettin' it done with Sarah Malcolm." "But you know what this means to us." "It's time to play hardball." "We gotta stop her." "L. Donn'll take care of it." "You just stay out of the way." "Good luck at the meetin'!"
