Look out! 23 00:03:07,000 --> 00:03:10,000 Hey, you, what's the matter with you? Don't you know that... 24 00:03:10,000 --> 00:03:13,000 I didn't see them, brother. They got no right to play with me. 25 00:03:13,000 --> 00:03:14,000 Have you been drinking? 26 00:03:14,000 --> 00:03:15,000 Oh, me? 27 00:03:15,000 --> 00:03:19,000 No, because if you had, I'd pull you out of that car so fast and take you over to the police. 28 00:03:19,000 --> 00:03:32,000 All right, brother, calm down. Nobody's hurt. Nobody's hurt. Just a little scare. 29 00:03:32,000 --> 00:03:37,000 I was still trembling when I got home. I had ached and I couldn't eat dinner. 30 00:03:37,000 --> 00:03:42,000 It wasn't something I could tell Elsa about. She wasn't ready yet to hear things like that. 31 00:03:42,000 --> 00:03:46,000 So I just sat there at the table looking across at Stevie, 32 00:03:46,000 --> 00:03:51,000 half hearing his prattle about the new fishing rod and how many fish he'd catch on our outing tomorrow 33 00:03:51,000 --> 00:03:57,000 and some little story he'd learned in school about Thomas Jefferson and the first Fourth of July. 34 00:03:57,000 --> 00:04:09,000 And then pretty early I took a pill and went to bed. 35 00:04:09,000 --> 00:04:14,000 It was the next afternoon. We were driving along, my wife, my boy and myself. 36 00:04:14,000 --> 00:04:19,000 You know that winding road that leads up from Kingston to Falls Town and the trout country? 37 00:04:19,000 --> 00:04:24,000 A lot of hairpin turns and a few bad shoulders, but beautiful, beautiful scenery. 38 00:04:24,000 --> 00:04:27,000 And that's what we all needed after her nervous breakdown. 39 00:04:27,000 --> 00:04:32,000 A little slow around the turns, Ben. Why do you drive so fast? 40 00:04:32,000 --> 00:04:35,000 You're never driving too fast as long as you feel the car's under control. 41 00:04:35,000 --> 00:04:39,000 Better it wasn't under control a minute ago. What a curve. 42 00:04:39,000 --> 00:04:45,000 Ben, the gas tank's almost empty. Why didn't you listen to me and fill up at the last station? 43 00:04:45,000 --> 00:04:48,000 There's always a reserve after the empty mark. 44 00:04:48,000 --> 00:04:49,000 Bet we run out of gas. 45 00:04:49,000 --> 00:04:54,000 Well, it seems to me, youngster, that when I tell you that... 46 00:04:54,000 --> 00:04:57,000 What's wrong? Why are we stopping? 47 00:04:57,000 --> 00:05:01,000 Oh, that's what I'd like to know. 48 00:05:01,000 --> 00:05:04,000 You know, Dad, you know. 49 00:05:04,000 --> 00:05:07,000 Yeah, yeah, I know. Out of gas. 50 00:05:07,000 --> 00:05:11,000 Oh, Ben. Will you ever learn? 51 00:05:11,000 --> 00:05:15,000 Well, everybody runs out of gas once in a while. 52 00:05:15,000 --> 00:05:18,000 Okay, well, it's a nice day for me to take a hike. 53 00:05:18,000 --> 00:05:22,000 But, Ben, is it all right to be parked like this? On the curb, so close to the road? 54 00:05:22,000 --> 00:05:26,000 Well, why not? Where's the traffic? Only adventurers like us know about this road. 55 00:05:26,000 --> 00:05:28,000 Well, good-bye, folks. 56 00:05:28,000 --> 00:05:30,000 Oh, good-bye, Mr. Know-it-all. 57 00:05:30,000 --> 00:05:31,000 I'll go with you, Dad. 58 00:05:31,000 --> 00:05:36,000 Oh, you'll stay here.
