:05:02
Because
we got no money.
:05:09
Here, take these
to the house.
Where are you goin'?
:05:12
I just made my mind up
about something.
:05:19
When he makes up his mind,
he sure does it sudden.
Where is he goin'?
:05:27
Hi, Mr. Huston.
Hello, Audie.
:05:30
That was a first-rate job
you did on that chicken coop
the other day.
Thanks.
:05:35
Hi, Mrs. Huston.
Hello, Audie.
:05:37
Sir, I know you don't
hire any steady help
except at picking time,
:05:41
but could you give me
a full-time job?
:05:43
A full-time job?
:05:45
I wouldn't want much money,
and you could keep half until
we pay back what we owe you.
:05:50
What does your ma say to that?
I wanted to talk to you
before I said anything to her.
:05:54
It's not right.
Why, you'd have
to quit school.
:05:58
Yes, ma'am,
but I need the money.
:06:01
What about your sister
in Farmersville?
Can't she help?
Edna.
:06:05
Corinne's helped all she can,
but, well, she's got a family
of her own to take care of.
:06:11
A boy your age!
You can't do it, Ben.
This is man's talk.
:06:15
Will you please
go to the house,
and let me run the farm?
:06:19
Seems like
she's forgot, Audie,
:06:23
I never finished school neither.
:06:25
A couple years older than you,
I quit to go in the Marines
when we was in the big war.
:06:30
Sometimes I wish
I'd stayed in.
:06:33
Probably be retired by now
on more money than I make
out of the farm.
:06:38
Now about that job...
:06:42
I guess the best thing to do
is leave it to your ma.
:06:45
Thanks a lot, Mr. Huston.
:06:53
Ma, I got a full-time job!
I'm gonna work for Mr. Huston
in the morning.
:06:57
But you've got
to go to school.
:06:59
I don't care for school.
I don't like it anymore.
