About to graduate,

I got problems readin' out loud.

"The father of the number-one basketball
prospect Jesus Shuttlesworth...

:56:24
"was captured last night in the Coney
lsland section of Brooklyn, New Y ork...

:56:28
- "after a week-long manhunt.
- What?

:56:30
"He had escaped the maximum security
Attica State Penitentiary...

:56:34
"seven days before.
:56:36
No official word yet
on how he escaped."

:56:38
How could Uncle Jake have escaped when
they let him walk out the front gate?

:56:41
There's gotta be some truth
to it if it's in the papers.

:56:44
Oh, come on, man!
:56:49
Y o, Shuttlesworth.
:56:53
Warden wants to see you now.
:56:56
He say what this is about?
:57:03
Things didn't work out
exactly as we planned,

:57:06
but the governor got
what he wanted.

:57:08
I'm happy for him.
Why do you think my son did it?

:57:11
I haven't had the pleasure of meeting
your son as yet. I can't speculate.

:57:15
- Maybe someday you'll get
to ask him that in person.
- Someday.

:57:17
And when will that be,
Warden?

:57:19
The governor
has yet to inform me.

:57:23
For your information,
technically...

:57:25
you did not get your son
to sign the letter of intent.

:57:29
Hopefully that's not gonna
make a difference.

:57:32
- We need some time.
- Well, I got that, huh?

:57:37
Dear Jesus, ever since you was born
I been pushin' you,

:57:43
tryin' to make you the best ball player
that you could possibly be,

:57:47
tryin' to make you the ball player
that I never was.

:57:51
I finally came
to the realization...

:57:53
that I was pushin' you
further and further away from me also.

:57:59
I believe that things
gon' work out for the best for you,
