:12:03
Daddy, look,
this one's a gold fishy.
:12:07
That's right, Ellie.
:12:08
They wasn't all killed
by the road,
:12:11
especially the ones
back from my childhood.
:12:17
They get older as you go
towards the middle.
:12:21
Harder to read.
:12:22
Missy Ellen, come
over here just a minute.
:12:26
That's where I buried
my dog Spot
:12:29
when he died in 1924.
:12:32
Ellie...do you know
:12:35
what a graveyard
really is?
:12:39
Well, I guess not.
:12:43
It's a place
where the dead speak.
:12:47
No, not right out loud.
:12:51
Their stones speak
or their markers.
:12:54
This ain't
a scary place, Ellie.
:12:56
It's a place of rest
and speaking.
:12:59
Can you remember that?
:13:02
Yes, sir.
:13:04
Shh.
:13:05
Shh.
:13:13
Hi, babe.
:13:14
Daddy, what if
Church dies?
:13:16
What if he dies and has to go
to the pet cemetery?
:13:21
Honey, Church
will be fine.
:13:24
No, he won't.
Not in the end.
:13:27
In the end
he's going to croak.
:13:30
Lovey, Church
might still be alive
:13:32
when you're
in high school,
:13:34
and that's
a very long time.
:13:37
It doesn't
seem long to me.
:13:39
It seems short.
:13:41
I'd let Church
live to be 100,
:13:44
but I don't
make the rules.
:13:46
Well, who does?
:13:48
God, I suppose.
:13:49
He's not God's cat,
he's my cat.
:13:52
Let God get His own
if He wants one.
:13:56
Not mine.
:13:58
Not mine!
