:26:01
Retarded nigger,
don't nobody want you.

:26:05
Your damn mammy
didn't even want you.

:26:08
Gimme my shoe. Hmpf!.
:26:11
Must've felt pretty good...
:26:12
when you took
that shoe from her.

:26:14
Yeah, I felt
like I was gonna go...

:26:16
right upside
her head...

:26:18
but I just chilled.
:26:20
Why'd you chill?
:26:21
I don't know.
:26:23
Well, I'm glad you did.
:26:26
How'd you feel?
:26:28
I felt like
I won a prize...

:26:32
but it scared me.
:26:33
Why?
:26:34
It was the first time
I ever felt...

:26:36
more powerful than her.
:26:38
It was like a surprise.
:26:41
Whatever happened
toJesse?

:26:43
We lost touch.
You know how it is.

:26:44
Yeah.
:26:45
It might be helpful
to understand the mentality...

:26:48
of people
like the Tates.

:26:51
Here.
:26:53
It's called
The Slave Community.

:26:55
Why I gotta understand
somebody beatin' on me?

:26:57
What you went through...
:26:58
was in part the result
of the treatment...

:27:01
that slaves received
from their masters...

:27:03
and then passed on
to their own children...

:27:06
generation to generation
to generation...

:27:07
right on down
to the Tates.

:27:10
Sir, that sounds
like an excuse.

:27:12
I mean, I was a kid.
:27:13
I understand.
:27:15
You sound like you
takin' up for 'em.

:27:16
I'm not saying
what they did was right.

:27:17
What they did
was wrong.

:27:19
We all have choices.
They made the wrong choices.

:27:21
But this is not about them.
This is about you.

:27:23
You were sent to me...
:27:24
because you have
an anger problem.

:27:25
Well, you got the right
to be angry.

:27:27
But you also have to learn
to channel that anger...

:27:31
to use it
constructively.

:27:32
Instead of gettin'
into fights...

:27:33
go to the gym.
:27:34
Hit the bag,
lift the weights.

:27:36
You have to use that energy
to better yourself.

:27:40
You say you're taking
Japanese classes, right?

:27:43
Yeah.
:27:44
Okay, you're already
on the right track.

:27:45
Can we talk about
this next week?

:27:49
3 sessions, son.
Unfortunately...

:27:51
that's all I'm given
to make a recommendation...

:27:53
and I'm gonna recommend...
:27:54
that you be given
a second chance.

:27:56
That is what you want,
isn't it?

:27:58
To stay in the navy?
