When my mother died I was sitting
in the hallway in the army hospital.

:55:07

I was worried as hell. I knew she was
real sick. She had this bad kidney thing.

:55:13

So I'm sitting there
and my father comes out of the room

:55:17

and tells me that she's dead.

:55:20

He led me to this little chapel they had there

:55:22

and he sat me down
and he told me I could cry for 15 minutes.

:55:27

He gave me 15 minutes to cry
and after that I wasn't supposed to cry again.

:55:32

So he left me alone in the chapel

:55:38

and came back...
he came back 15 minutes later.

:55:41

- Jesus. What did you do?
- Well, I did what I was told.

:55:47

I cried for 15 minutes.

:56:06

She was a beautiful woman...

:56:10

my mother.

:56:14

She was crazy about the old man.

:56:18

I don't know, I guess he loved her too.

:56:22

You never told me that story.

:56:27

Yeah, I was 12. That's when I came here.

:56:30

Brian.

:56:32

Hey, Brian, they're down at the gate.
Better get going.

:56:35

All right.

:56:44

When this is over,
you and me are gonna go round and round.

:56:47

Yeah. But first
you're gonna move your goddamn arm.
