:02:01
so she could take up
with another man she'd met.
:02:06
Night after night,
she'd lock me in the hotel room alone.
:02:10
Mama would turn the latch and tell the staff
not to let me out no matter what.
:02:18
And I was terrified.
:02:23
And I'd scream my head off...
:02:29
until finally I'd collapse...
:02:32
on the carpet next to the door
and I'd fall asleep.
:02:39
Then after years of this...
:02:42
she just left me...
:02:44
with relatives in Alabama.
:02:50
Who raised you up?
:02:53
My aunts.
:02:57
And that's where I met Nelle.
:02:59
And she lived next door.
:03:09
Your mother was Indian?
:03:11
Cherokee.
:03:13
So drinking was not a good thing for her.
:03:17
No tolerance for it.
:03:30
We're on suicide watch.
:03:35
That's why they leave the lights on at night.
:03:37
I hope we're past that now.
:03:39
I do.
