:51:02
Who the hell are you ?
:51:06
Why don't you just
think of me as, uh,
:51:08
A friend of the family.
:51:11
Get the fuck out of
my house, asshole.
:51:16
Well,
:51:19
If you'll give me
a couple minutes
of your time,
:51:25
I've got a few things
i'd like to talk to you about.
:51:29
[ Exhales deeply ]
:51:37
You know, uh,
what you did
wasn't really your fault.
:51:41
It's what they call
a genetic defect.
:51:44
[ Sighs ]
Mom called it "the gene."
:51:48
My grandfather
had the gene.
He, uh,
:51:51
Came over on the boat
from ireland in 1912.
:51:55
And i guess he passed it on
to my old man.
:51:57
My old man was a great guy.
A real pussycat.
A hard worker.
:52:01
Big sports fan.
But sometimes,
:52:05
On his way home
from the docks, he liked to
stop in with the guys,
:52:08
And have a couple
of beers, you know.
:52:11
I remember comin' home
from school one day,
:52:13
And the whole house
was dark.
:52:15
Couldn't figure it out.
:52:18
I heard my mom cryin'
off in the dark someplace.
:52:21
I was old enough at that point;
i could reach
the light switch...
:52:25
And turn the lights on.
:52:28
And i saw...
:52:31
What he did to her.
:52:35
So i went to my room
and i got the baseball bat--
:52:38
Mickey mantle model
my old man gave me
for Christmas--
:52:41
And i found the old man
passed out in the bathtub.
:52:46
And i tattooed him.
:52:53
Needless to say,
when i came home every day
from school after that,
:52:56
The house was lit up
like ebbetts field.
