:09:01
You know your duty is to your job.
:09:04
I know it, but I just can't help it.
:09:06
Maybe you're not well, dear.
:09:07
It isn't that, Mom. I'm all right.
:09:10
I try my best when I get there,
but I just can't concentrate.
:09:14
It's not the kind of work I want to do.
:09:16
I said so when I came home.
It's too monotonous.
:09:18
But you don't seem to realize...
:09:20
That's it, realize. No one seems to realize
that I have changed. I'm different now.
:09:24
I've been through hell.
:09:27
Folks here are concerned with my uniform,
how I dance.
:09:30
I'm out of step with everybody.
:09:32
All this while I was hoping to come home
and start a new life, to be free...
:09:37
and again I find myself under orders.
:09:39
A drab routine, cramped, mechanical.
Even worse than the Army.
:09:42
And you, all of you trying your darnedest
to map out my future...
:09:46
to harness me and lead me around
to do what you think is best for me.
:09:51
It doesn't occur to you that I've grown...
:09:53
that I've learned life is more important
than a medal on my chest...
:09:56
or a stupid, insignificant job.
:09:58
- Appreciation. Why, you've...
- Clint.
:10:01
What would you do, son?
:10:03
Where would you go?
:10:04
Somewhere. Anywhere, Mom,
just where I can do what I want to.
:10:08
If that's really in your heart...
:10:11
I think you certainly should follow it.
:10:13
I knew you'd understand.
:10:14
Before we know it,
he'll be leaving us again.
:10:17
That doesn't matter.
:10:20
He's got to be happy.
He's got to find himself.
:10:23
You're a peach, Mom.
:10:25
I know where there's a lot of construction
going on. Up in New England.
:10:41
Hey, Allen! Allen!
:10:44
Calling me?
:10:45
Yeah, knock off a minute.
I want to see you.
:10:53
- Well?
- Bad news for you.
:10:55
We're cutting down
and the new men will have to go. Sorry.
:10:59
All right.
