:14:00
that, uh...
:14:02
that you feel
under pressure...

:14:04
that, uh...
:14:05
uh, you feel a weight...
:14:07
pressing down on you.
:14:09
That you're in the dark,
that you're alone.

:14:10
You said you had
no parents.

:14:12
I had parents.
:14:13
Okay.
:14:15
Ahem. Only 3 sessions,
right?

:14:18
Only 3.
:14:24
My father's name
was Edward.

:14:27
So you knew him?
:14:29
No.
:14:31
I didn't even know
his last name.

:14:32
You know where he is?
:14:33
Yeah, I know
where he is.

:14:36
Joey--
:14:40
He went to his
ex-girlfriend's house.

:14:44
They got into
an argument.

:14:45
She killed my father.
:14:47
Where was your mother
when this happened?

:14:48
Behind bars.
:14:50
I see.
:14:52
I was born in prison...
:14:53
2 months after my
father was murdered.

:14:56
Why was she confined,
your mother?

:14:57
I don't know.
:14:59
All I know
is what I told you.

:15:00
So you were turned over
to the state?

:15:02
Yeah. The state placed
me in this orphanage.

:15:06
It was supposed to be until...
:15:08
my mother got out
to claim me, but--

:15:11
She got out, but she
never claimed me.

:15:13
Hmm. How long
were you there?

:15:15
2 years.
:15:17
How does that make
you feel, Antwone?

:15:21
I don't know.
:15:22
Come on, you must have
some feelings about it.

:15:24
You know, you--
What did it feel like?

:15:29
Rainy days.
:15:30
Rainy days? Okay.
:15:33
Why is that?
:15:36
You know,
in Cleveland...

:15:39
it rains.
Not all the time...

:15:40
but, uh, to a kid...
:15:42
who wants to go out
and play...

:15:46
it seems like it
rains every day.

:15:48
But, uh...
:15:50
kids expect it
to rain sometimes...

:15:51
but...for one kid...
:15:54
it rained too much.
:15:58
Hmm.
