WEBVTT
00:13.188 --> 00:15.605
- He thinks nobody else…
- Exactly.
00:15.688 --> 00:18.188
- This is a popular…
- I can get over there by noon.
00:18.271 --> 00:19.896
Right. Tomorrow.
00:20.646 --> 00:22.438
All right, so that will help.
00:23.146 --> 00:25.021
I don't know why you spend
the entire day here.
00:25.646 --> 00:26.480
Good afternoon.
00:26.563 --> 00:29.355
Uh, we don't handle
properties in Chinatown.
00:29.438 --> 00:32.521
Yes, I've already inquired
about properties in Chinatown,
00:32.605 --> 00:34.480
but there's nothing available.
00:34.563 --> 00:37.855
I was hoping you could find me
a suitable property nearby.
00:37.938 --> 00:39.313
Uh, Fillmore Street, perhaps?
00:39.396 --> 00:42.146
- Oh, I'm afraid that's not possible.
- I don't require much.
00:42.230 --> 00:44.230
A storefront with a room above?
00:44.313 --> 00:45.688
I have cash.
00:46.396 --> 00:48.105
I could put the deposit down now.
00:48.188 --> 00:51.396
We only sell or let to Americans, so…
00:51.980 --> 00:56.438
- Wonderful, I am American.
- Not in San Francisco.
01:02.855 --> 01:04.105
Thank you for your time.
01:55.480 --> 01:59.146
I hear there are 20,000 Chinese
in San Francisco now.
02:00.188 --> 02:03.146
And they expect us all
to live in a couple blocks.
02:04.688 --> 02:07.146
Their rules serve their purposes.
02:07.730 --> 02:10.396
Eat before it gets cold.
02:26.188 --> 02:28.521
There's nothing like
your winter melon soup.
02:32.188 --> 02:33.938
How long have you been in the city?
02:40.980 --> 02:45.063
Well, I would have come sooner,
but I heard that scholar Lau was gone
02:46.021 --> 02:48.521
and that Lucky Lau had taken his place.
02:50.813 --> 02:53.396
You used to rail against gambling.
What changed?
02:55.063 --> 02:56.021
Nothing.
02:56.646 --> 02:59.271
There was always baccarat, fan-tan games.
02:59.771 --> 03:01.855
How do you think I got in debt back home?
03:03.438 --> 03:06.146
Is that why you stayed away
all these years?
03:06.230 --> 03:08.396
Because I disappointed you?
03:10.188 --> 03:13.438
You stopped visiting me.
You stopped answering my letters.
03:15.188 --> 03:16.896
I thought something happened to you.
03:21.188 --> 03:22.563
I was embarrassed.
03:32.771 --> 03:34.563
I've only ever been a cook,
03:35.688 --> 03:36.771
a domestic.
03:37.605 --> 03:41.938
I never achieved what you dreamed for me.
03:43.813 --> 03:47.730
Are you so much a child still to think
that anyone gets the life they planned?
03:49.605 --> 03:51.521
Make what you can with what you have.
03:52.105 --> 03:55.855
- You can sell books from this apartment.
- It wasn't about selling books.
04:00.480 --> 04:03.021
I just wanted a place
where I could belong.
04:04.438 --> 04:07.313
And you can't find that anywhere else?
04:09.480 --> 04:13.021
The only place I've ever made for myself
belongs to someone else.
04:14.771 --> 04:16.313
Can't it be yours as well?
04:17.438 --> 04:18.563
At what cost?
04:20.021 --> 04:21.896
That's for you to determine.
04:23.688 --> 04:27.021
Someday, a bookstore will exist
of the kind we imagined.
04:27.521 --> 04:29.480
And perhaps you will even open it.
04:30.521 --> 04:32.855
Life, if you're lucky, is long.
04:48.313 --> 04:51.105
If you soak the pot overnight,
it'll come right out.
04:57.563 --> 04:59.396
I saw your new automobile.
04:59.896 --> 05:03.396
If you're interested in spending
your money now, there are better ways.
05:03.980 --> 05:07.021
This place isn't really a home yet.
05:09.896 --> 05:11.688
Hm. Who's gonna make it one?
05:11.771 --> 05:12.980
I thought I might.
05:15.313 --> 05:16.855
That is, if you haven't replaced me yet.
05:20.563 --> 05:21.980
We couldn't replace you.
05:23.730 --> 05:24.855
We couldn't if we tried.
05:31.688 --> 05:33.855
I've been doing a little thinking…
05:36.021 --> 05:37.521
in my time away.
05:48.855 --> 05:50.313
The terms of my return.
05:50.396 --> 05:52.646
I'll give you a raise,
whatever you think is right.
05:52.730 --> 05:54.688
I want more than money.
05:55.605 --> 05:56.480
Like what?
05:57.688 --> 05:59.730
Control over the running of the house.
05:59.813 --> 06:02.188
Didn't you have that already?
06:02.271 --> 06:04.396
No. I had to ask
for every dollar we spent.
06:04.480 --> 06:06.605
If I'm going to make a proper home
for you and the boys,
06:06.688 --> 06:08.771
I have to feel it's mine as well.
06:09.771 --> 06:10.896
Fine.
06:10.980 --> 06:13.146
I won't speak pidgin English
to our guests anymore.
06:13.230 --> 06:15.355
Oh, I… I didn't know you felt you had to.
06:15.438 --> 06:17.021
Oh, then you weren't listening.
06:18.188 --> 06:19.063
You will listen.
06:21.688 --> 06:23.146
You will try to listen.
06:25.521 --> 06:27.855
And you won't interfere
with how I raise the boys.
06:29.105 --> 06:30.146
They're my boys.
06:30.230 --> 06:31.646
Then you should raise them.
06:33.605 --> 06:34.646
I'm trying.
06:35.230 --> 06:36.271
Try harder.
06:42.896 --> 06:43.896
Is that all?
06:43.980 --> 06:46.771
I'm sure there'll be other things.
Give it time.
06:52.980 --> 06:53.813
Mm.
06:55.146 --> 06:56.146
We missed you.
06:57.146 --> 07:00.396
- We didn't know how to do without you.
- Well, that much is clear.
07:05.521 --> 07:07.396
What happened in San Francisco?
07:10.480 --> 07:12.230
I had my great try.
07:14.813 --> 07:16.355
Thank God that's done with.
07:18.980 --> 07:20.563
Is that all you're gonna tell me?
07:22.605 --> 07:23.480
Adam.
07:25.771 --> 07:28.396
I've never been
so goddamn homesick in all my life.
07:56.938 --> 07:58.063
Lee?
07:59.688 --> 08:00.563
Yes.
08:01.563 --> 08:02.563
You came home.
08:04.605 --> 08:05.521
Yes.
08:36.938 --> 08:37.896
Here, Cal!
08:38.771 --> 08:39.688
And Abra!
09:20.688 --> 09:23.605
- Okay. Whatever you want.
- I think that… Yes.
09:24.188 --> 09:26.063
And he's a-- Hey!
09:26.563 --> 09:28.563
Come on, Aron. I'm not waiting all day.
09:28.646 --> 09:29.480
Aron.
09:29.563 --> 09:33.188
A pound of flour and a half pound of lard.
09:33.271 --> 09:34.730
Charge it to our account.
09:35.521 --> 09:36.688
Charge-- Mm.
09:38.896 --> 09:40.146
Where have you been?
09:40.813 --> 09:41.980
Ask Aron.
09:42.063 --> 09:43.855
He's the one who needs a chaperone.
09:44.480 --> 09:47.521
Cal, did you hear about the mastodon
they dug up in Siberia?
09:47.605 --> 09:50.313
Is there anyone in Salinas
who hasn't heard about your mastodon?
09:50.396 --> 09:53.563
It had been in the ice
for thousands of years,
09:53.646 --> 09:55.271
and the meat was still good.
09:55.355 --> 09:57.313
Our icebox works on the same principle.
09:57.396 --> 10:00.646
These have been in there for a week,
and there's no sign of decay.
10:00.730 --> 10:01.730
Amazing.
10:07.021 --> 10:09.980
Miracles in their own home,
and these boys don't even blink an eye.
10:10.063 --> 10:13.271
What do you expect?
They're natives of this century.
10:13.938 --> 10:15.438
Well, I'm off.
10:16.355 --> 10:19.438
I'm going down to meet
the manager of the ice plant,
10:19.521 --> 10:21.105
so don't wait on me for dinner.
10:21.188 --> 10:23.313
- Again?
- It is miraculous.
10:24.188 --> 10:26.896
If you get things cold enough,
you can keep them.
10:27.730 --> 10:29.063
You can keep anything.
10:34.438 --> 10:38.063
Cal, you're too smart
to be getting grades like these.
10:38.646 --> 10:40.271
I just want you to try.
10:41.396 --> 10:43.563
But if I tried,
people might expect something of me.
10:45.980 --> 10:48.480
I know you don't like
to be compared to your brother.
10:48.563 --> 10:49.771
Who says I don't?
10:49.855 --> 10:51.396
Just because Aron's a good student
10:51.480 --> 10:53.396
doesn't mean
that you can't be one as well.
10:53.480 --> 10:54.771
You think I don't know that?
10:54.855 --> 10:57.855
Hey, Lee, can I take the rest
of the cookies over to Abra's?
10:57.938 --> 10:58.771
We're gonna study.
10:58.855 --> 10:59.938
- Yes.
- Thanks.
11:00.021 --> 11:00.896
To study?
11:00.980 --> 11:03.188
We have an exam tomorrow,
in case you forgot.
11:03.271 --> 11:05.646
No one can say Aron doesn't try.
11:05.730 --> 11:07.105
Go ahead and laugh.
11:07.188 --> 11:10.396
The rest of us will be off at college
making something of ourselves.
11:11.063 --> 11:12.271
Tell Abra I said hello.
11:12.355 --> 11:13.771
Mm. I will.
11:17.563 --> 11:21.521
You'd think Abra was his twin,
how much time he spends with her.
11:21.605 --> 11:24.938
Keep talking like that,
and people will say you're jealous.
11:25.646 --> 11:27.605
- Of what?
- Please, Will, come in.
11:27.688 --> 11:28.688
Thank you.
11:28.771 --> 11:30.980
Lee, is there fresh coffee?
11:31.688 --> 11:34.480
- Whiskey, if you have it.
- Cal, where are you going?
11:34.980 --> 11:37.230
To Abra's to study.
11:37.313 --> 11:41.646
Wherever you're going, be back by nine.
I don't like you out at all hours.
11:41.730 --> 11:42.938
Aye, aye, Captain.
11:48.105 --> 11:50.521
Cars are really only
a small part of my business now.
11:50.605 --> 11:52.605
It's amazing to see
what you've made of yourself.
11:52.688 --> 11:55.771
Oh, Lee, you remember Will Hamilton,
Sam Hamilton's son?
11:55.855 --> 11:58.396
- Of course.
- Now, it's the damnedest thing.
11:58.480 --> 11:59.646
I'd just been thinking,
11:59.730 --> 12:02.480
"If only I could talk this idea over
with Sam Hamilton,"
12:02.563 --> 12:04.605
and there you were,
coming out of the Abbott house.
12:05.605 --> 12:06.521
Will,
12:07.438 --> 12:08.688
I have an idea.
12:09.646 --> 12:10.980
And I can't get rid of it.
12:11.063 --> 12:14.938
I suppose it's a business proposition,
seeing that's your field of expertise.
12:15.021 --> 12:16.063
Go on.
12:16.146 --> 12:18.605
Now, the way I see it,
the whole country is changing.
12:18.688 --> 12:20.563
People aren't going to live
the way they used to.
12:20.646 --> 12:21.896
That's certain.
12:21.980 --> 12:25.646
Do you know what the biggest market
for oranges is in the winter?
12:26.938 --> 12:28.146
New York City.
12:28.855 --> 12:32.313
Now, cauliflower, lettuce, peas,
12:32.396 --> 12:35.855
in most of the country,
you can't get them fresh for months.
12:35.938 --> 12:39.355
But here, in our valley,
we can raise them year-round.
12:39.855 --> 12:44.230
Now, if you chop ice fine,
and you lay a head of lettuce in it,
12:44.313 --> 12:47.813
and wrap it in wax paper,
it'll keep fresh for weeks.
12:47.896 --> 12:51.896
And the owner of the ice plant
here in Salinas is looking to sell.
12:52.813 --> 12:56.896
I thought I might buy it and try to ship
some lettuce out east this winter.
12:56.980 --> 12:57.813
Hm.
12:59.563 --> 13:01.063
That'll cost a lot of money.
13:01.813 --> 13:03.896
I have a lot of money.
13:06.355 --> 13:08.938
Well, what do you think?
13:09.438 --> 13:11.188
Look, Trask.
13:13.480 --> 13:16.771
I… I come from
a whole goddamn family of inventors.
13:16.855 --> 13:20.271
We had ideas for breakfast.
We had ideas instead of breakfast.
13:21.063 --> 13:23.105
I'm the only one
who didn't have any ideas,
13:23.188 --> 13:25.271
and I'm the only one who ever made a dime.
13:25.355 --> 13:26.521
So what are you saying?
13:26.605 --> 13:30.438
If you wanna drop $40,000
or $50,000 quick, go ahead.
13:31.105 --> 13:33.146
Otherwise, let your damned idea die.
13:33.855 --> 13:35.021
Why? What's wrong with it?
13:35.105 --> 13:37.563
There are too many variables
outside of your control.
13:37.646 --> 13:40.563
The weather, the trains, the market.
13:41.980 --> 13:43.605
That's just one man's opinion.
13:44.271 --> 13:47.855
Now, if you'll excuse me,
I need to see a man about a horse.
13:48.355 --> 13:51.605
Uh… Will, now,
you don't think it'll make money?
13:51.688 --> 13:53.980
Su… sure. You never know.
13:55.021 --> 13:58.521
It could be a big success,
or it could be a big flop.
13:59.188 --> 14:00.313
The risk is too high.
14:00.396 --> 14:03.021
You wanna put your money into something?
Look around.
14:03.105 --> 14:05.146
This war in Europe
is gonna go on a long time.
14:05.230 --> 14:08.355
- Mm.
- When there's war, there's hungry people.
14:08.855 --> 14:11.438
Rice and corn and beans.
14:12.813 --> 14:14.146
They don't need ice.
14:14.230 --> 14:17.480
They keep,
and people can stay alive on them.
14:17.563 --> 14:18.896
War profiteering.
14:18.980 --> 14:23.230
No, I'm just reading the tea leaves.
Now, I really do have to meet somebody.
14:24.730 --> 14:25.980
Good to see you, Trask.
14:26.480 --> 14:27.396
And you.
14:36.313 --> 14:37.896
He didn't say it couldn't work.
14:38.938 --> 14:40.355
No, he didn't.
14:41.938 --> 14:43.771
I think I'll buy the ice plant.
14:44.480 --> 14:47.771
Private Perks is a funny little codger
14:47.855 --> 14:51.771
With a smile, a funny smile
14:52.480 --> 14:55.896
Five feet none
He's an artful little dodger
14:55.980 --> 14:59.896
With a smile, a funny smile
15:00.521 --> 15:04.146
All the other fellows have to grin
15:04.230 --> 15:06.938
When he gets this off his chest
15:07.605 --> 15:08.438
Hey!
15:08.938 --> 15:12.438
Pack up your troubles
In your old kit bag
15:12.521 --> 15:16.563
And smile, smile, smile
15:17.063 --> 15:20.646
While you've a lucifer
To light your fag
15:21.146 --> 15:24.605
Smile, boys, that's the style
15:25.188 --> 15:28.563
What's the use of worrying?
15:28.646 --> 15:32.063
It never was worthwhile
15:32.146 --> 15:36.646
So pack up your troubles
In your old kit bag
15:36.730 --> 15:40.355
And smile, smile, smile
15:41.230 --> 15:44.646
Pack up your troubles
In your old kit bag
15:44.730 --> 15:49.063
And smile, smile, smile
15:49.146 --> 15:52.730
While you've a lucifer
To light your fag
15:52.813 --> 15:57.146
Smile, boys, that's the style
15:57.230 --> 16:00.521
What's the use of worrying?
16:00.605 --> 16:04.188
It never was worthwhile
16:04.271 --> 16:08.646
So pack up your troubles
In your old kit bag
16:08.730 --> 16:10.021
And smile…
16:10.105 --> 16:13.271
The shipment will go
over the Rockies, across the plains.
16:13.355 --> 16:15.771
It'll stop briefly in Chicago.
16:17.188 --> 16:20.271
And then on to New York.
16:21.271 --> 16:22.980
Cal, move your things.
16:23.063 --> 16:27.188
Abra's worked very hard on this meal,
and we are going to enjoy it.
16:28.355 --> 16:30.063
When the train arrives in New York,
16:30.146 --> 16:33.105
do you think we should have
a photographer there to document it?
16:33.188 --> 16:35.021
Oh. That's a fine idea.
16:35.521 --> 16:38.605
I'd bet they put it in the papers.
First shipment of its kind.
16:39.438 --> 16:42.021
Father, if your venture goes well,
you'll do it again, won't you?
16:43.355 --> 16:45.480
Yes. That's the general idea.
16:45.563 --> 16:47.521
Well, instead of giving
the farmers a percentage,
16:47.605 --> 16:50.063
wouldn't it make more sense
to have your own product to sell?
16:51.271 --> 16:52.521
But I'm not a farmer.
16:52.605 --> 16:55.938
Yes, but if you did have your own product,
wouldn't that be more profitable?
16:56.021 --> 16:57.230
Cal, what are you getting at?
16:58.355 --> 17:00.105
Let me plant our ranch this spring.
17:00.813 --> 17:03.480
That way, it'll be our own produce
we ship next fall.
17:07.271 --> 17:08.105
What's funny?
17:08.188 --> 17:11.271
You… you don't know
the first thing about farming.
17:11.355 --> 17:12.355
I can learn.
17:12.438 --> 17:14.146
If we cut out our partners in success,
17:14.230 --> 17:16.480
imagine what that would do
to Father's reputation.
17:16.563 --> 17:18.938
- Stay out of this, Aron.
- All right.
17:19.021 --> 17:21.521
Cal, it's not possible.
Our land is already rented.
17:21.605 --> 17:24.480
But you let Aron help with the business.
Why wouldn't you give me a chance?
17:24.563 --> 17:28.021
Because he's proven that he can handle
the responsibility, and you haven't.
17:35.980 --> 17:38.563
Maybe I should go after him.
17:38.646 --> 17:39.605
No.
17:39.688 --> 17:42.313
He needs to learn that we're
not gonna bend to his every mood.
17:53.271 --> 17:54.105
Hey, kid.
17:55.313 --> 17:58.355
You ever get kicked out of a place?
17:58.438 --> 17:59.438
Yeah, sure.
17:59.980 --> 18:01.938
What have they got against a good time?
18:02.771 --> 18:05.688
No room at the inn for old Rabbit Holman.
18:06.396 --> 18:07.230
Rabbit?
18:08.021 --> 18:10.355
- That's a funny name.
- I'm a funny fellow.
18:11.355 --> 18:13.396
Places like this, you'd want me around.
18:13.480 --> 18:15.980
- They don't know what they're missin'.
- Hey.
18:16.646 --> 18:20.855
You ever been to the show at Kate's?
18:21.438 --> 18:22.355
Brothel?
18:23.396 --> 18:27.605
They got a circus. Boy, a real lulu.
Just you wait and see.
18:29.438 --> 18:34.188
I never forgot how Kate done her old man,
and he never got over it neither.
18:34.688 --> 18:36.313
Poor old Trask.
18:39.313 --> 18:40.813
How… how'd she done him?
18:41.396 --> 18:43.771
You know, just shot him and ran off.
18:43.855 --> 18:47.813
She was no good as a wife,
but she sure as hell is a good whore.
18:50.480 --> 18:51.355
Come on.
18:52.063 --> 18:52.896
Kid, come on.
18:53.980 --> 18:54.938
You'll love her.
19:07.896 --> 19:10.230
Best seat in the house. Come on.
19:14.313 --> 19:15.313
Hi.
19:18.021 --> 19:19.771
Oh, ain't you cute?
19:21.438 --> 19:22.396
Don't you worry.
19:22.896 --> 19:25.355
They won't bite, unless you pay for it.
19:31.521 --> 19:33.313
- Shh.
- Good evening.
19:34.396 --> 19:35.563
May I present
19:36.563 --> 19:37.646
Madam Kate.
19:40.271 --> 19:41.188
Gentlemen.
19:43.271 --> 19:45.146
Oh!
19:47.688 --> 19:49.271
Good evening.
19:50.063 --> 19:52.271
Tonight, you have gathered
19:53.438 --> 19:56.271
to witness a rite of passage.
19:56.771 --> 20:01.521
As is customary with rituals,
there will be an offering.
20:02.188 --> 20:09.063
But it's not always so clear
who is doing the sacrificing
20:10.230 --> 20:11.980
and who is sacrificed.
20:22.855 --> 20:24.938
Give it to him!
20:27.063 --> 20:28.938
Go easy on the poor fellow!
20:29.855 --> 20:32.355
Go easy on him!
20:59.730 --> 21:00.646
Joe.
21:02.313 --> 21:05.355
Did you see a boy here tonight?
21:06.271 --> 21:07.438
Back of the room.
21:08.230 --> 21:09.188
Mm-hmm.
21:14.146 --> 21:15.813
Has he been here before?
21:16.730 --> 21:18.063
Not that I remember.
21:18.730 --> 21:20.646
We don't entertain children.
21:21.146 --> 21:23.396
You're on the door for a reason.
Don't let it happen again.
21:24.396 --> 21:25.271
Yes, boss.
21:25.355 --> 21:26.938
You got it.
21:29.396 --> 21:31.146
We're doing better every week.
21:31.646 --> 21:33.688
Maybe we should add another show.
21:35.438 --> 21:36.313
No.
21:37.313 --> 21:39.730
Build demand, then raise prices.
21:39.813 --> 21:40.646
Ah.
21:41.855 --> 21:45.271
Oh, this came for you this afternoon.
21:46.980 --> 21:51.355
Like I said in my letter, I was hoping
you might help me back on my feet.
21:52.813 --> 21:54.521
Now, why would I do that?
21:55.230 --> 21:57.313
Well, we had some good times, didn't we?
21:57.813 --> 21:59.188
All of us girls at Faye's.
21:59.271 --> 22:01.980
- That was a very long time ago.
- Come on, Kate.
22:02.063 --> 22:05.313
Just 'cause you got lucky doesn't mean
the rest of us don't deserve nothing.
22:05.396 --> 22:10.480
I wasn't handed anything.
I made my own way, just like you.
22:16.063 --> 22:18.021
You remember how I've got second sight?
22:18.521 --> 22:21.146
- I used to read palms, tell fortunes.
- No.
22:21.230 --> 22:24.563
Oh, I bet the other girls do.
I told lots of things that came true.
22:24.646 --> 22:26.980
Like the dream I had the night Faye died.
22:27.063 --> 22:29.146
- I ever tell you about that?
- I don't recall.
22:29.230 --> 22:30.938
Well, in my dream,
22:31.438 --> 22:33.980
I seen a person come out of the kitchen
22:34.063 --> 22:37.063
and dig a hole
in the yard near the old fire pit.
22:37.605 --> 22:39.855
Then I was awake, and Faye was dead.
22:40.646 --> 22:43.271
I went and looked in that spot,
22:44.313 --> 22:45.396
and down in the dirt,
22:45.896 --> 22:48.730
there were
some smashed-up medicine bottles.
22:49.980 --> 22:52.146
It is kinda funny, don't you think?
22:55.938 --> 22:57.063
I think
22:57.855 --> 23:01.146
you're an old whore who's been bashed
over the head far too many times.
23:01.230 --> 23:03.730
Don't you start saying that I am nuts.
23:03.813 --> 23:05.771
No, but you are tired and sick.
23:05.855 --> 23:07.938
Why don't you stay here for a while, hmm?
23:08.438 --> 23:09.771
You can't work, of course,
23:09.855 --> 23:13.980
but you could help out around the house
and have a bed and some meals.
23:14.063 --> 23:15.271
How does that sound?
23:15.355 --> 23:18.730
I was thinking more like
you give me $100 a month.
23:20.230 --> 23:21.730
No, try someone else.
23:22.855 --> 23:25.521
Those new rooms that you put out back,
23:26.355 --> 23:28.146
well, seems like
they got built right on top
23:28.230 --> 23:30.355
of where I found
those broken medicine bottles.
23:31.355 --> 23:33.563
It's almost like someone
was trying to hide 'em.
23:35.146 --> 23:36.521
It would've worked too,
23:37.813 --> 23:40.188
if those bottle pieces were down there.
23:41.313 --> 23:44.480
But I took 'em for safekeeping.
23:46.230 --> 23:49.271
You see, in my dream,
23:49.355 --> 23:52.438
the person digging
around out there was you.
24:00.438 --> 24:02.146
How much did you say? $100?
24:02.938 --> 24:04.355
Uh, yes.
24:07.813 --> 24:09.813
Judge, this is a frame.
24:09.896 --> 24:12.938
- I never seen this guy in my life.
- How much did you lose?
24:13.646 --> 24:14.896
Close to $100.
24:14.980 --> 24:18.313
And you had $96 on you.
24:18.396 --> 24:20.480
You're right, what a frame.
24:20.563 --> 24:22.938
Oh, Judge, Judge,
I've got to see you alone.
24:23.021 --> 24:25.938
Tell the sheriff I want her run
over the county line before noon.
24:26.021 --> 24:27.771
No, don't! Ugh!
24:27.855 --> 24:31.105
- This is a frame! This is a frame!
- Next case to be heard, please.
24:33.688 --> 24:36.355
What was that?
24:36.438 --> 24:37.271
Good lad.
24:39.521 --> 24:42.646
- Could you pass me the…
- He tipped so well.
24:43.480 --> 24:45.146
The judge ran her out of town.
24:52.813 --> 24:55.021
She could come back.
24:59.605 --> 25:00.605
Who said that?
25:06.563 --> 25:07.813
Who said that?
25:14.980 --> 25:17.480
If you have something to say, just say it.
25:22.105 --> 25:23.771
No one said anything, Kate.
25:33.396 --> 25:34.646
Thanks for coming.
25:38.105 --> 25:39.105
Thank you.
25:40.105 --> 25:41.105
Okay.
25:45.980 --> 25:47.938
Thank you. Thank you so much.
25:48.021 --> 25:48.938
Friends!
25:50.021 --> 25:55.063
Members of the Chamber of Commerce,
citizens of Salinas, welcome!
26:00.980 --> 26:05.813
I'd like to thank my sons, Aron and Caleb,
26:05.896 --> 26:08.021
and my trusted associate Lee,
26:08.105 --> 26:10.980
who probably understands
more about my business than I do.
26:12.063 --> 26:14.313
I see many familiar faces here,
26:15.230 --> 26:21.355
many hands who helped gather,
trim, box, and load this cargo.
26:21.980 --> 26:27.063
So, while we may not have
other investors yet,
26:27.646 --> 26:30.271
we have the investment
of your honest labor.
26:30.355 --> 26:31.688
And without you,
26:31.771 --> 26:34.271
there would be no Salinas Valley Lettuce.
26:34.813 --> 26:39.021
So here's to you, and here's to progress!
26:46.313 --> 26:47.396
Good to see you.
26:52.021 --> 26:53.230
And hold.
26:53.313 --> 26:55.063
To Salinas Valley Lettuce.
26:55.146 --> 26:56.355
Cheers.
26:56.438 --> 26:57.313
Cheers.
26:58.646 --> 26:59.646
Mmm.
27:00.230 --> 27:01.063
Ooh.
27:04.188 --> 27:06.646
So, when will you know
how the first shipment fared?
27:06.730 --> 27:09.438
The commission office in New York said
we should have estimated profits
27:09.521 --> 27:10.396
within two weeks.
27:10.480 --> 27:11.980
How much do you stand to profit?
27:12.063 --> 27:14.605
Oh, Aron, that's not talk
for the dinner table.
27:14.688 --> 27:15.855
Oh, I'm sorry. Um…
27:16.938 --> 27:18.813
I was only curious about the margins.
27:18.896 --> 27:20.480
Let's say this.
27:20.563 --> 27:23.938
In a matter of weeks,
I could be a very poor or a very rich man.
27:24.438 --> 27:27.355
Father, now that the first shipment is off
and you have a little more time--
27:27.438 --> 27:28.563
I have to tell you.
27:28.646 --> 27:32.605
A man from the Defense Council asked me
to serve on the Salinas Recruitment Board.
27:32.688 --> 27:35.230
President Wilson said we're staying out
of the European conflict.
27:35.313 --> 27:36.855
Well, nobody wants war.
27:36.938 --> 27:39.355
I was thinking of joining the ROTC.
All the boys at school--
27:39.438 --> 27:41.730
Now that the first shipment is off,
I have some ideas
27:41.813 --> 27:44.313
about how the ice plant
might run more efficiently.
27:44.396 --> 27:45.771
The plant runs fine as it is.
27:46.396 --> 27:49.855
But Lee let me look at the books.
I found some redundancies.
27:49.938 --> 27:52.188
I told you,
my business is not your concern.
27:52.271 --> 27:53.896
He has a good head for numbers, Adam.
27:53.980 --> 27:56.021
Then he should study
his math lessons occasionally.
27:56.105 --> 27:57.813
Cal's actually been doing better
in school--
27:57.896 --> 27:59.230
I don't need your pity.
27:59.313 --> 28:01.313
I am defending you, moron.
28:01.396 --> 28:02.271
No name-calling.
28:02.355 --> 28:06.146
It's the effort that matters.
You have to learn to apply yourself, Cal.
28:06.230 --> 28:08.688
I do apply myself.
The teachers just don't like me.
28:08.771 --> 28:10.146
They don't like that you don't try.
28:10.230 --> 28:12.855
If you wanna be liked,
follow your brother's example.
28:12.938 --> 28:16.813
Stop comparing me to Aron!
I am nothing like him!
28:16.896 --> 28:19.313
- Cal. Cal.
- Sit down! Sit down!
28:19.396 --> 28:23.188
Am I so bad?
Why can't you accept me for who I am?
28:31.730 --> 28:32.605
Yes?
28:37.146 --> 28:39.480
I wanted to come and congratulate you
again on the shipment.
28:39.563 --> 28:41.855
It really is a remarkable accomplishment.
28:41.938 --> 28:42.980
Thank you, son.
28:45.980 --> 28:48.396
I wonder if you might go
a little easier on Cal.
28:48.480 --> 28:49.438
Hello?
28:49.521 --> 28:52.563
I know he can get in his own way,
but he's only trying to please you.
28:52.646 --> 28:55.063
It doesn't matter how good
his intentions are.
28:55.146 --> 28:57.855
Your brother needs to learn
to take responsibility for his actions.
28:57.938 --> 28:59.396
- If Cal keeps acting--
- Adam.
29:00.521 --> 29:02.188
Sheriff Quinn's on the phone.
29:28.980 --> 29:29.938
Go on.
29:32.271 --> 29:34.855
Just do what you're gonna do to me
and get it over with.
29:38.730 --> 29:41.688
They picked you up in a gambling den.
29:43.688 --> 29:45.521
I had to get you from jail.
29:52.271 --> 29:53.855
I failed you, haven't I?
29:56.813 --> 29:58.438
I'm as bad as my father was.
30:01.021 --> 30:03.146
I don't think you're a bad father.
30:04.896 --> 30:06.230
Cal, how would you know?
30:06.730 --> 30:08.646
You've never had any other kind.
30:32.896 --> 30:35.980
My father made a mold.
30:40.188 --> 30:41.771
And he forced me into it.
30:45.438 --> 30:47.063
I was a bad casting.
30:49.730 --> 30:50.563
Hm.
30:51.230 --> 30:52.938
I couldn't be remelted, so…
30:54.938 --> 30:56.688
I remained a bad casting.
30:58.438 --> 30:59.355
And now…
31:03.021 --> 31:05.146
I'm the same as he was.
31:08.563 --> 31:10.980
He didn't allow me to be my own person.
31:16.063 --> 31:18.146
And I don't see my sons as people.
31:21.730 --> 31:24.688
This fan-tan game where they arrested you…
31:28.105 --> 31:30.230
do you go to places like that a lot?
31:32.146 --> 31:33.271
Only to watch.
31:33.855 --> 31:36.271
- And does your brother go too?
- No, sir.
31:36.355 --> 31:40.230
Aron doesn't do bad things
or think bad things.
31:42.521 --> 31:43.396
And you?
31:44.730 --> 31:47.521
Do you do and think bad things?
31:53.480 --> 31:55.688
But you also protect your brother,
don't you?
31:56.896 --> 31:57.771
I try to.
31:58.355 --> 31:59.271
Why?
32:00.021 --> 32:00.896
I love him.
32:06.938 --> 32:08.980
My brother and I,
32:10.188 --> 32:11.438
we weren't like that.
32:14.271 --> 32:16.063
We might've even hated each other.
32:19.271 --> 32:20.438
I've hated Aron.
32:22.688 --> 32:25.521
But I don't want to.
I… I don't wanna hate anyone.
32:29.396 --> 32:30.271
I just…
32:32.480 --> 32:33.605
I wanna be good…
32:35.938 --> 32:37.063
like you,
32:38.063 --> 32:39.063
like Aron.
32:42.396 --> 32:43.313
Cal…
32:45.313 --> 32:46.313
all I want
32:47.730 --> 32:49.105
is for you to try.
32:52.646 --> 32:54.313
- I will.
- Good.
32:56.480 --> 32:57.896
Then I'll try too.
33:26.146 --> 33:27.521
I'm glad you were able to sleep.
33:28.730 --> 33:29.938
Where is everyone?
33:31.271 --> 33:33.730
Uh, your father
and Aron are at the ice plant.
33:38.730 --> 33:41.855
Adam said you could join them
if you want. Hm?
33:44.396 --> 33:45.563
No, thank you.
33:51.730 --> 33:53.855
You know, Cal,
if you ever needed anything,
33:53.938 --> 33:55.355
you could ask me.
33:56.980 --> 33:59.105
Money, even. I have savings.
34:03.938 --> 34:05.688
I know where my mother is.
34:07.146 --> 34:08.438
And what she's doing.
34:10.105 --> 34:11.021
I saw her.
34:26.355 --> 34:27.563
What do you wanna know?
34:29.230 --> 34:31.105
You can ask me anything.
34:36.855 --> 34:38.980
- Does my father know about her?
- Yes.
34:40.105 --> 34:41.438
Why did he say she was dead?
34:42.730 --> 34:44.396
To save you from pain.
34:45.938 --> 34:47.188
Did she really shoot him?
34:47.271 --> 34:48.355
Nearly killed him.
34:48.855 --> 34:50.230
Why? Was he hurting her?
34:50.313 --> 34:52.063
Not that I know of, no.
34:55.063 --> 34:56.563
Have you told Aron about her?
34:56.646 --> 35:00.021
No. I wouldn't dare tell him.
I don't think he could stand it.
35:00.105 --> 35:04.980
If Aron ever learns about her,
you'll have to help him.
35:07.521 --> 35:08.896
I have her in me.
35:17.771 --> 35:18.688
Cal…
35:22.521 --> 35:26.063
you may have that in you,
but you've got the other too.
35:26.688 --> 35:30.105
It's easy to excuse yourself
because of your ancestry,
35:30.605 --> 35:32.271
but whatever you do…
35:34.521 --> 35:36.230
it will be you who does it,
35:36.730 --> 35:39.271
not your father, not your mother.
35:39.771 --> 35:40.646
You.
35:43.230 --> 35:45.396
- Do you believe that?
- Yes.
35:48.771 --> 35:50.605
And you better believe it too.
35:52.771 --> 35:55.021
Or I'll break every bone in your body.
36:23.813 --> 36:27.438
Suppose you had been
the one to dig up the bottles.
36:27.521 --> 36:30.188
- Wouldn't you have asked around?
- Who's there?
36:32.021 --> 36:32.855
Who said that?
36:32.938 --> 36:35.980
Suppose you gave mercury to a person.
36:36.063 --> 36:37.105
What would happen?
36:38.355 --> 36:41.271
Could you kill a person
if you gave them too much lead?
36:46.521 --> 36:48.313
Now, now, Cathy.
36:48.396 --> 36:51.563
Why would you wanna hide my pretty face?
36:55.271 --> 36:57.521
- Have you heard the story…
- Stop it.
36:57.605 --> 37:00.771
…about the rich madam who willed
everything to a new girl and then died?
37:00.855 --> 37:02.771
- Please shut up! Shut up!
- Burying the bottles…
37:02.855 --> 37:04.313
Hard to hide something like that.
37:04.396 --> 37:07.063
And you had to have Ethel floated,
and now she could be anywhere…
37:07.146 --> 37:08.146
Shut up! Shut up!
37:08.230 --> 37:10.563
…talking to anyone, out of your control.
37:10.646 --> 37:11.646
You needed me?
37:16.730 --> 37:18.105
Joe, I…
37:18.813 --> 37:19.730
Mm…
37:24.146 --> 37:25.813
You remember that old buzzard, Ethel?
37:27.146 --> 37:29.855
Well, turns out she stole more than
37:31.105 --> 37:32.480
the hundred dollars.
37:32.563 --> 37:33.605
What'd she take?
37:33.688 --> 37:35.813
Something of personal value.
You're a smart fellow.
37:35.896 --> 37:39.438
- Where would you find someone like that?
- I'll bet she ain't further than San Jose.
37:40.105 --> 37:41.646
An old hustler don't go far.
37:41.730 --> 37:43.521
How'd you feel
about making some extra cash?
37:43.605 --> 37:45.021
You want I should find her?
37:45.105 --> 37:47.521
Mm-hmm. But keep it quiet.
37:48.271 --> 37:49.730
Leave it with me, boss.
39:02.021 --> 39:03.271
You.
39:03.771 --> 39:04.896
Who are you?
39:04.980 --> 39:06.855
Who sent you, and what do you want?
39:09.980 --> 39:11.188
I'm Cal Trask.
39:12.688 --> 39:13.855
I think you're my mother.
39:29.771 --> 39:30.896
Shut the door.
39:39.646 --> 39:41.313
You keep your curtains closed.
39:41.813 --> 39:43.771
Yes, the light hurts my eyes.
39:45.605 --> 39:46.938
It's arthritis.
39:48.063 --> 39:51.063
You'll probably get it.
My great-aunt had it and my mother.
39:57.146 --> 39:58.188
Take a seat.
40:08.063 --> 40:09.313
Do you want a drink?
40:09.938 --> 40:10.771
I don't drink.
40:13.313 --> 40:14.188
Neither do I.
40:17.646 --> 40:18.938
What do you want, then?
40:19.980 --> 40:21.396
Just to look at me?
40:28.688 --> 40:31.605
Which one are you?
The firstborn or the second?
40:33.730 --> 40:35.938
I don't know. He… Father never said.
40:37.313 --> 40:39.396
Does he talk about me a lot, your father?
40:40.980 --> 40:41.813
No.
40:42.688 --> 40:43.521
Never.
40:48.605 --> 40:50.021
Your brother, what's his name?
40:51.313 --> 40:52.146
Aron.
40:52.980 --> 40:53.813
Aron.
40:55.563 --> 40:56.688
What's he like?
41:01.063 --> 41:02.021
He's good.
41:06.271 --> 41:09.313
- Is he dull like Adam?
- Leave them alone.
41:10.105 --> 41:12.188
My father and my brother,
stay away from them.
41:12.271 --> 41:13.105
Oh.
41:14.105 --> 41:14.938
You like them.
41:15.021 --> 41:16.063
I love them.
41:28.980 --> 41:31.188
Did you mean to shoot him?
41:31.271 --> 41:32.271
My father?
41:32.355 --> 41:34.438
I could have killed him,
you know, but I didn't.
41:36.438 --> 41:39.063
- I just wanted him to let me go.
- Why?
41:45.813 --> 41:46.980
I was broken
41:48.271 --> 41:49.230
and hurt.
41:51.730 --> 41:53.188
And Adam took me in.
41:55.063 --> 41:57.146
He waited on me, and he cared for me.
41:58.938 --> 42:00.938
And that's how he tried to tie me down.
42:03.230 --> 42:05.146
That's how most people get tied down.
42:05.980 --> 42:07.605
But no one can trap me.
42:11.230 --> 42:12.605
Didn't you want us?
42:16.396 --> 42:18.438
Did you ever wish that you hadn't left?
42:25.896 --> 42:26.938
Christ, no.
42:36.896 --> 42:37.855
Sometimes, I…
42:39.771 --> 42:41.188
I have this meanness in me.
42:43.021 --> 42:46.938
I'll get mad at my brother,
and I'll… I'll hurt him.
42:47.021 --> 42:49.438
I don't want to. It makes me sick.
42:50.355 --> 42:52.646
But I do it. I do it all the same.
42:56.938 --> 42:58.771
Aron is like Father.
43:01.105 --> 43:02.438
I must be like you.
43:12.438 --> 43:15.771
When you were little,
did you ever have that feeling that
43:15.855 --> 43:17.521
you were missing something?
43:18.730 --> 43:21.521
Like… like the others knew a secret
43:22.105 --> 43:23.521
that they wouldn't tell you?
43:26.563 --> 43:28.396
I fooled every one of them.
43:31.313 --> 43:33.938
Just when they thought
they could tell me what to do.
43:35.021 --> 43:38.480
Oh, Charles,
that's when I really fooled them.
43:43.938 --> 43:45.355
My name is Caleb.
44:00.480 --> 44:01.730
What are you doing?
44:01.813 --> 44:03.771
Close those. What are you doing?
44:03.855 --> 44:06.271
- I wanna see.
- I told you, the light hurts my eyes.
44:06.355 --> 44:07.938
- I don't believe you.
- Let go of me.
44:08.021 --> 44:10.938
I don't believe that it does.
I think that you're afraid.
44:11.021 --> 44:14.105
I am not afraid of you or anyone.
44:14.188 --> 44:15.730
Get out. Get out of here.
44:15.813 --> 44:18.355
Get out of here before I scream.
Let go of me!
44:27.688 --> 44:28.980
Oh, goddamn it.
44:37.771 --> 44:39.355
Don't drink too much.
44:48.855 --> 44:49.855
Charles?
44:50.355 --> 44:51.355
Cathy.
44:52.105 --> 44:53.146
I'm here.
44:55.021 --> 44:56.271
You're not alone.
45:12.730 --> 45:14.313
This tenderizes the meat.
45:14.396 --> 45:15.230
Okay.
45:15.313 --> 45:17.355
And the flour helps the buttermilk adhere.
45:17.938 --> 45:20.688
Careful. Don't get flour
on the floor, or Lee will make you mop.
45:22.688 --> 45:24.855
Good, good.
Let's bring it to the milk bath.
45:26.438 --> 45:27.563
Oh, good.
45:29.271 --> 45:30.980
What's all this about?
45:31.771 --> 45:32.605
Nothing.
45:33.188 --> 45:34.813
Here, I can do the breadcrumbs.
45:35.938 --> 45:37.271
I'll get you an apron.
45:38.938 --> 45:41.271
Aron, are you going to help?
45:42.146 --> 45:44.063
No point. Abra will cook for me.
45:44.146 --> 45:45.896
Oh, will I?
45:45.980 --> 45:48.438
Everyone will know how to feed themselves.
45:50.605 --> 45:51.771
- Lee.
- Thank you.
45:54.188 --> 45:55.021
Read it.
46:02.021 --> 46:02.980
What is it?
46:04.480 --> 46:05.771
Do you want me to tell them?
46:09.980 --> 46:14.021
A snow slide blocked the passage
through the Sierras.
46:15.730 --> 46:18.646
Our train cars were left
on the tracks there
46:18.730 --> 46:20.980
for two days before they dug 'em out.
46:22.188 --> 46:24.563
And when the train finally got through,
46:25.063 --> 46:28.105
it hit unseasonably warm weather
through the Middle West.
46:29.605 --> 46:33.605
In Chicago, there seemed to be some kind
of confusion about the orders.
46:35.021 --> 46:36.063
Nobody's fault.
46:36.563 --> 46:38.063
These things happen.
46:39.771 --> 46:43.730
And our train cars were left
in the yard there for five more days.
46:44.521 --> 46:49.396
The commission office in New York
is asking for a fee of $2,000
46:50.646 --> 46:52.605
to dispose of what arrived there.
46:54.896 --> 46:56.313
They called it slop.
47:04.771 --> 47:06.021
Nothing made it?
47:07.396 --> 47:08.271
None of it?
47:08.938 --> 47:12.063
It couldn't have been a more
effective failure if I had planned it.
47:22.771 --> 47:23.771
Aron.
47:34.605 --> 47:35.813
I let him down.
47:36.688 --> 47:40.230
- It wasn't your fault.
- Go on, get him. Bring him back.
47:40.771 --> 47:41.605
Please.
47:46.271 --> 47:47.771
I'm really sorry, Father.
48:07.271 --> 48:09.730
I guess I've had my great try.
48:11.230 --> 48:13.938
You're not gonna crawl back
into your hole now, are you?
48:14.021 --> 48:15.355
What makes you think that?
48:15.855 --> 48:17.271
The look on your face.
48:23.855 --> 48:25.688
I truly believed it would work.
48:31.063 --> 48:33.980
- Am I completely wiped out?
- You're not rich anymore.
48:34.063 --> 48:35.605
But we won't starve.
48:36.605 --> 48:37.480
I made sure of that.
48:41.938 --> 48:43.646
- We should sell the ice plant.
- No.
48:43.730 --> 48:46.188
- Adam…
- This was a lot of accidents.
48:46.271 --> 48:47.563
It could still work.
48:48.063 --> 48:49.980
So maybe I can figure something out.
49:13.605 --> 49:14.730
Here you are.
49:16.938 --> 49:20.146
Why did he have to go and mess with
things he doesn't know about?
49:22.146 --> 49:25.646
Your father lost some money.
What difference does it make?
49:26.688 --> 49:27.730
We're poor now.
49:28.855 --> 49:30.313
I'm a poor kid.
49:31.188 --> 49:33.896
Your mother and father
won't want you to marry me.
49:33.980 --> 49:35.938
Then I won't ask them.
49:37.730 --> 49:39.396
What will we live on?
49:40.480 --> 49:42.480
We could run your father's ranch.
49:43.396 --> 49:45.438
I'm not gonna be a farmer.
49:45.938 --> 49:48.146
Abra, you're not gonna be a farmer's wife.
49:48.230 --> 49:51.230
No, I'm gonna be Aron's wife,
49:52.230 --> 49:53.563
no matter what he is.
49:55.896 --> 49:58.646
You're pretty sure of yourself,
aren't you?
49:59.230 --> 50:00.313
Yes.
50:00.396 --> 50:02.230
I am pretty sure of myself.
50:06.105 --> 50:06.938
Kiss me.
50:26.771 --> 50:27.813
It's okay.
50:56.938 --> 50:57.771
Lee.
50:57.855 --> 50:59.105
Hmm?
51:01.063 --> 51:02.313
Is Father all right?
51:02.396 --> 51:05.688
As all right as he can be.
51:13.105 --> 51:14.021
Uh, you…
51:14.521 --> 51:17.896
You said that I could come to you
if I needed something.
51:19.313 --> 51:20.230
Money.
51:20.313 --> 51:21.355
Uh, a loan.
51:25.896 --> 51:27.313
How much do you need?
51:28.480 --> 51:30.021
What… what could you manage?
51:30.521 --> 51:31.813
I'd say 5,000.
51:33.730 --> 51:37.396
I can… I can pay you back.
You… you can even charge me interest.
51:37.480 --> 51:39.521
I'm not going to charge you interest.
51:40.730 --> 51:42.771
- Don't you wanna know what it's for?
- No.
51:43.271 --> 51:44.188
I trust you, Cal.
51:48.313 --> 51:49.980
- Thank you, Lee.
- Mm-hmm.
51:55.980 --> 51:56.855
Cal.
51:56.938 --> 51:57.771
Yeah?
51:59.188 --> 52:01.813
Don't tell your father
where you got the money, okay?
52:01.896 --> 52:04.896
I'm not gonna tell him anything.
I want it to be a surprise.
52:10.438 --> 52:13.480
I wanna make a lot of money,
and I want you to tell me how.
52:14.730 --> 52:18.230
- What do you mean by a lot of money?
- About $20,000 or $30,000.
52:22.188 --> 52:25.646
You must have heard what happened
to my father's venture.
52:26.896 --> 52:28.563
I wanna give him back what he lost.
52:30.396 --> 52:32.271
I don't like to take
a partner without money.
52:32.355 --> 52:33.896
- I could get money.
- How much?
52:33.980 --> 52:35.230
Five thousand dollars.
52:35.313 --> 52:37.063
Is that borrowed? What interest?
52:37.146 --> 52:37.980
None.
52:38.480 --> 52:40.480
That's a good trick.
Where are you getting it from?
52:40.563 --> 52:41.855
I won't tell, sir.
52:47.396 --> 52:50.105
Cal, do you know
the present price of beans?
52:50.188 --> 52:52.396
Three and a half cents per pound,
up from two.
52:53.480 --> 52:56.521
I'd been thinking about asking
my father to let me run the ranch.
52:56.605 --> 52:58.688
Oh, you don't wanna farm.
You're too smart for that.
52:58.771 --> 52:59.855
There's no money in farming.
53:01.146 --> 53:04.063
If we go to the farmers around here
and we guarantee them five cents a pound
53:04.146 --> 53:06.605
with a seed loan,
they'll plant beans in the spring.
53:07.188 --> 53:09.771
I figure we could contract
5,000 acres of beans that way.
53:09.855 --> 53:12.563
What would we do with five-cent beans
in a three-cent market?
53:12.646 --> 53:14.980
This war in Europe's only gettin' worse.
53:15.063 --> 53:17.396
It wouldn't surprise me
if we got into it soon.
53:18.271 --> 53:20.271
I figure in a matter of months,
53:20.355 --> 53:24.105
we'll be able to sell all the dry beans
we can find for ten cents a pound or more.
53:25.646 --> 53:27.938
And that, Cal,
is how you make a lot of money.
53:29.896 --> 53:30.896
What do you say?
53:39.813 --> 53:42.730
Where were you? You missed ROTC.
53:42.813 --> 53:45.855
I, uh… I had a business meeting
on the other side of town.
53:46.355 --> 53:47.730
What business?
53:49.105 --> 53:50.480
Don't worry about that.
53:50.980 --> 53:52.480
Come on, I'll buy you an ice cream.
53:53.813 --> 53:54.688
Lettuce heads?
53:54.771 --> 53:55.938
Ice-cold.
53:56.480 --> 53:57.438
Ignore them.
53:59.146 --> 54:00.646
That doesn't bother you?
54:00.730 --> 54:02.188
They're dumb kids.
54:02.271 --> 54:04.230
But it's not just them. It's everyone.
54:05.188 --> 54:08.396
Father's turned our family
into the laughingstock of Salinas.
54:09.271 --> 54:10.480
We've gotta get out of here.
54:11.438 --> 54:13.146
You can go to college soon enough.
54:13.646 --> 54:15.146
Over a year from now.
54:17.896 --> 54:20.063
I wanna crawl out of my skin.
54:21.938 --> 54:26.855
You know, I bet if you worked hard enough,
you could pass the entrance exams in June.
54:26.938 --> 54:29.355
And then you'd start college in the fall.
54:30.396 --> 54:32.980
Father probably can't even afford
to send me now.
54:33.688 --> 54:34.730
Then I will.
54:34.813 --> 54:36.313
- Don't joke.
- I'm not.
54:37.646 --> 54:39.980
You'll send me to college? How?
54:41.063 --> 54:42.521
Don't worry about that.
54:42.605 --> 54:45.438
If you pass in spring,
I'll send you in the fall.
54:45.938 --> 54:46.771
Deal?
54:49.605 --> 54:50.730
Why would you do that?
54:51.646 --> 54:53.105
Because you're my brother.
54:57.521 --> 54:58.980
Let's not tell Father though.
54:59.480 --> 55:01.563
Why not? It'll make him happy.
55:01.646 --> 55:04.938
Suppose I don't pass.
I don't want him looking over my shoulder.
55:06.688 --> 55:07.771
I'll tell you what.
55:09.021 --> 55:11.855
When you pass, you can tell him.
It'll be like we're giving him a present.
