We will finish our engagement now.
I thought we were done. You said.
The debt must be paid. A man's flesh was taken. Now a pound is required in return.
[handing Munch a soda] There you go.
[confused] A man is grateful.
So, are you from, uh, you from around here?
Across the sea, but here a long time. From the age of the carrier pigeon and the 600 tribes. The Arapaho, the Cree, and the Tonkawa. A man comes, never having seen a mountain. He cannot remember the year of his birth. He is paid to soldier. But one night, he wanders from his post, drawn by the songs of the river.
Well, Scotty's grandfather took us to the Vermillion last year. My dad Wink, well, he's a big fly fisherman. Remember that, hon?
I caught a cold.
Yeah. Yeah, she did. It's kind of funny.
[to Munch] Why? Why must debt be paid? I understand keeping a promise, but people always say debt must be paid. Except what if you can't? If you're too poor or you lose your job. Maybe there's a death in the family. Isn't the better thing - the more humane thing - to say the debt should be forgiven? Isn't that who we should be?
Oh, game's on at seven. Probably time to make the biscuits.
You know what? You're right. It's not chili without biscuits.
No.
How about you two go set the table, huh?
Oh, well, I was thinking chopsticks.
For chili?
Come on.
[to Munch] Whatever it is you think you came here for, we're halfway to supper and it's a school night. So either you wash your hands and you help, or we do this another time.
