:07:00
You ever think you
might like to own a slave?
:07:03
I guess I never thought
about it, Pa.
well, think about it.!
:07:06
Think about it.
:07:08
If you had the money,
would you go out
and buy yourself a slave?
:07:11
No, sir, I wouldn't.
why not?
:07:14
If I can't do my own work
with my own hands,
it'll never get done.
:07:18
Now, suppose you had a friend
that owned slaves...
:07:21
and suppose somebody's
gonna come and take 'em
away from him,
:07:24
would you help him fight
to keep 'em?
:07:26
- No, sir.
- Your name's Nathan,
isn't it?
:07:29
Aw, you know
my name, Pa.
:07:32
Well, I seem to remember
somethin' about that.
I was talkin' to Henry.
:07:35
Sir?
well, what do
you think?
:07:38
- No, sir, I wouldn't.
- Why not?
:07:41
I don't see any reason to fight
for something I don't believe
is right, and I don't think...
:07:45
a real friend would ask me to.
Then why we have to have
this same conversation...
:07:49
every Saturday
before Sunday meetin',
I'll never know.
:07:52
But I'm gonna pray to
the Almighty that this
will be the end of it.
:07:56
Pass the biscuits!

Papa?
:08:24
we're ready to go, Papa.
:08:28
You still miss her,
don't you, Papa?
:08:31
Miss her?
:08:33
Oh,Jennie,
you don't know what I feel
when I come up here.
:08:38
Even after all these years.
Sixteen years gone.
:08:42
Sixteen years.
And even so,
:08:46
I somehow feel...
:08:49
that she's not dead at all,
but only resting.
:08:52
And it's like I'm...
:08:55
just waitin' for her to get up
and walk home with me.
