Karen and Lucas in “Over The Hills And Far Away”

Karen

You know, this trip wasn't just about finding you a school. It was about finding a way back.

Lucas

To what?

Karen

To a place where it's okay to dream again. You know, you walked away from basketball so that you could live a long life. What are you gonna do with that life. What's your next dream, Lucas?

Lucas

Literature, you asked me about my future; if I could go to any college it would be to UNC to study literature.

Karen

My son, the next great American author.

Lucas

I don't know about that, ma.

Karen

And, UNC would be your dream school?

Lucas

Yea, sure, I mean if we had the money.

Karen

Okay, listen to me. Before we left the lawyer who drew up the adoption papers called. He told me that ever since you were born Keith has been saving a fund for you for college. I didn't know about it myself. He dreamed your dream with you Lucas. And, if this is something that you really want then you have the grades, then you can have it. Because, Keith left it for you.

Lucas

God, I miss him so much.

Karen

He's always with you, always. You make him proud.

Lucas

I will.
