:24:02
But this is my home.
I haven't any other place to go.
:24:07
- They can build their damn bridge anywhere.
- No, ma'am.
:24:10
They have to build it to meet up
with the road on the other side of the river.
:24:14
There isn't any alternative.
:24:16
End of next week,
this house is comin' down.
:24:21
When my cousin Miriam comes...
:24:23
she'll know how to deal
with the county commissioner.
:24:25
- I didn't know you were expectin' her.
- Well, I am.
:24:29
Afraid she won't make a bit of difference
as far as the bridge is concerned.
:24:33
We'll wait and see.
:24:35
I reckon we will. I ain't gonna take
that gun away from you, Miss Charlotte.
:24:38
I certainly hope you aren't
plannin' on using it again.
:24:41
Comin' in here to fetch you out
is the last thing I wanna do.
:24:44
Then don't come!
:25:07
What'd you wanna go tellin' him stories
about Miss Miriam for?
:25:12
She ain't even answered your letters.
:25:15
Well, she's comin' anyway.
:25:17
Be the saddest day of your life, missy,
if she does come.
:25:22
Your cousin Miriam ain't never had
but one idea in her head...
:25:26
and that was
lookin' out for herself.
:25:29
She's gotta come.
:25:32
She's the only kin I got left.
:25:44
Miriam's just gotta come.
:25:46
She's the only one
who can help me now.
:25:49
She's just gotta come.
:25:52
I guess there's been
a whole heap of changes...
:25:55
in this part of the country
since you was here last, miss.
:25:57
I imagine there have been.
:25:58
'Course, things ain't changed much
in this parish...
