:05:02
Vern had been trying to find those pennies
for nine months...
:05:05
... nine months, man.
:05:07
You didn't know whether laugh or cry.
:05:10
Jesus, Billy, we gotta do something.
:05:12
Why? Who cares?
:05:14
- We saw him.
- So?
:05:16
It's nothin' to us. The kid's dead
so it's nothin' to him, neither.
:05:19
And who gives a shit if they ever find him?
I don't.
:05:23
It's that kid they're talking about
on the radio.
:05:26
Brocker or Brower or Flowers,
whatever his name is.
:05:30
The train must have hit him.
:05:32
Big fucking deal.
:05:34
We had all followed
the Ray Brower story closely...
:05:37
... since he was a kid our age.
:05:38
Three days before, he left to pick
blueberries and nobody'd seen him since.
:05:42
I think we should tell the cops.
:05:44
You don't go squawking to the cops
after you boosted a car.
:05:47
They'll want to know how we got way out
on Back Harlow Road.
:05:50
They know we don't got no car.
:05:52
It's best we just keep quiet,
then they can't touch us.
:05:54
But we could make an anonymous call.
:05:57
They trace those calls stupid. I seen it
on "Highway Patrol" and on Dragnet.
:06:02
Yeah, right.
:06:03
I wish we never boosted
that goddamned Dodge.
:06:06
I wish Ace had been with us.
:06:08
- We could've said he was in his car.
- He wasn't!
:06:10
- Are we gonna tell him?
- We're not going to tell nobody.
:06:13
Nobody, never. You dig me?
:06:15
I know the Back Harlow Road.
:06:18
It comes to a dead end by the Royal River.
The train tracks are right there.
:06:21
Me and my dad fished out there.
:06:23
If they had known you were under there,
they would've killed you.
:06:26
Could he have gotten all the way from
Chamberlain to Harlow? That's really far.
:06:30
Sure. He probably started walking on the
tracks and followed them the whole way.
:06:35
Yeah, right.
:06:36
And then after dark, a train must have
come along and "el smako".
:06:46
I bet you, if we find him,
we'll get our pictures in the paper.
:06:49
We could even be on TV.
:06:51
- Sure.
- We'll be heroes.
:06:54
I don't know. Billy will know I found out.
:06:56
He's not going to care.
'Cause it's gonna be us that find him.
:06:59
Not Billy and Charlie Hogan,
and the boosted the car.
