:07:03
Along with
just about everything else...

:07:05
Simon was born
with an undersized heart.

:07:07
The prognosis wasn't good,
and Dr. Wells warned...

:07:10
the Birches that Simon probably
wouldn't last through the night.

:07:13
Fit-Fit right there
in the palm of my hand.

:07:16
But he did.
:07:18
Still, the complication seemed
too great, and Dr. Wells warned...

:07:21
the Birches that Simon probably
wouldn't last through the week.

:07:25
But he did.
:07:42
The Birches didn't know what to make of
their peculiar, little disappointment.

:07:46
So they made nothing
of it at all.

:07:49
I'm going to work.
:07:55
Weeks turned into months.
:08:00
And months
turned into years.

:08:03
Come on, we're late.
:08:05
No, you're late.
I'm just riding with you.

:08:12
The doctors proclaimed Simon a miracle.
:08:15
And he was quick to remind any of us
if we forgot.

:08:19
Not so fast. Slow down.
:08:22
- I'm a miracle, you know.
- Yeah. Yeah.

:08:25
But even miracles
can't go on forever.

:08:28
And although we never talked about it,
it was never far from our minds.

:08:32
Here they come,
:08:34
the Wenteworth bastard
and his granite mouse.

:08:36
Hey, Birch, nice
sidecar. What you use? A matchbox?

:08:42
Have a nice day.
:08:43
Goddamn kids got no respect
these days.

:08:49
It's another beautiful...
:08:51
autumn day friends,
and so sit back, relax...

:08:53
and so let "Big Daddy"
Dave Barton do the driving...

:08:56
as we cruise on down
the highway of hits here on WGV...

:08:59
the sound of Gravestown.
