1:21:01
the Americans still fighting the West
with a bottle of vodka in their hand.

1:21:06
There was still territory out there...
1:21:09
In the mind or around the block
or something like that.

1:21:23
Expound on that a little,
this sort of--

1:21:25
Okay, listen, man.
There was no such thing about...

1:21:29
college or religion or anything.
1:21:31
There was drinking.
Drinking, drinking, drinking.

1:21:34
Everything would revolve around that--
the money, the time spent, everything.

1:21:38
It was America at that point.
1:21:41
We had, like, 15 people
in Mark's backyard.

1:21:44
We had five cases-- no exaggeration--
five or six cases of beer cans...

1:21:49
just sitting there,
and my dad came over.

1:21:52
"Yeah, Pops, we need more beer."
So he procured us some beer.

1:21:57
Came back,
drank a couple beers with us.

1:22:00
All of a sudden,
Mark's parents pull up.

1:22:03
My dad immediately flanked around
the garage and cut through the back.

1:22:09
He was outta there right away.
Didn't want nothing to do with it.

1:22:11
He knew what was going on.
1:22:13
What do you think of Ken Keen?
1:22:16
He is a bad influence,
and Mark is a bad influence for Kenny.

1:22:20
Those two shouldn't be together.
1:22:24
With the parents, you know, it's
Kenny Keen's fault. He twisted your arm.

1:22:27
With the other parents, too, you know.
And that's all bullshit...

1:22:31
because I, you know--
1:22:34
I think peer pressure's bullshit.
1:22:36
Where are we headed, Mark?
1:22:39
We're headed to jail
to pick up Kenny.

1:22:41
He'll be happy as hell.
He's out in two minutes, man.

1:22:45
- And how did they get him?
- He and his ma were inside the house...

1:22:48
and all of a sudden
the lights went off.

1:22:53
They went down to check the fuse box,
and the boys were there waiting on 'em.

1:22:58
- Who are "the boys"?
- The detectives.
