I dropped her off
at her brother's...

1:30:17
...a four-plex on Dinker Street.
1:30:19
She told me her story
on the way home...

1:30:21
... Iike a sinner
who wanted to confess.

1:30:24
Her name was Ruby Hanks
from Lake Charles, Louisiana.

1:30:28
I suppose all she really wanted
was a place to fit in.

1:30:32
A few days later,
my conscience got the best of me...

1:30:35
...and I went by her place
to bring back her money.

1:30:38
I was kind of excited
about seeing her again.

1:30:41
But when I got there...
1:30:43
...she and her brother
had picked up and gone.

1:31:26
Find a job yet?
1:31:28
I ain't studying no job, Odell.
1:31:30
No job? How you gonna live?
1:31:32
I got a little money saved up.
I'll invest in real estate.

1:31:35
-Maybe go into business for myself.
-What kind of business?

1:31:39
Private investigating.
1:31:42
You get in trouble doing that.
1:31:43
Well, like a man told me once:
1:31:46
"Step out your door,
you're already in trouble.

1:31:49
Only thing is, if you're mixed up
at the top or not."

1:31:54
I guess you're right.
