I wish we had a knife
so we could kill animals that come around.

1:16:07
You never killed nothing in your life.
1:16:12
A mosquito.
1:16:16
It's not a mosquito. It's a firefly.
1:16:20
There was something
Granddaddy used to say.

1:16:25
Something he told me a long time ago.
1:16:29
He was Mama's dad.
1:16:33
He was walking in the woods...
1:16:37
and there were fireflies.
1:16:40
A bunch of them, blinking off and on.
1:16:44
He called them nature's nightlights.
1:16:48
To help animals find their way in the dark.
1:16:54
Can't keep them.
1:16:56
They need to be able to fly around.
1:17:00
They'll die if they can't.
1:17:04
He had a way to calm me with his words.
1:17:07
I couldn't tell half the time
if he was talking...

1:17:11
or you were reading his mind.
1:17:15
- Why don't we go see him?
- Who?

1:17:18
Granddad and Grandma.
1:17:21
Maybe they don't want us anyhow.
1:17:24
You ever think about that?
1:17:33
They didn't like Dad's style.
1:17:36
And then after Mom died,
they stopped showing up.
