GOD DAMN IT!
[LAUGHING]

[THUNDER]
BELIEVE ME, DELMAR, HE WOULD HAVE WANTED US TO PRESS ON.
PETE, REST HIS SOUL,
WAS ONE SOUR ASS SON OF A BITCH
AND NOT GIVEN TO ACTS OF POINTLESS SENTIMENTALITY.
IT JUST DON'T SEEM RIGHT
DIGGING UP THAT TREASURE WITHOUT HIM.
MAYBE IT'S FOR THE BEST HE WAS SQUISHED.
WHY, HE...
WAS BARELY A SENTIENT BEING AND...
WELL, AS SOON AS WE GET OURSELVES CLEANED UP
AND WE GET A LITTLE SMELLUM IN OUR HAIR,
WHY, WE'RE GONNA FEEL 100% BETTER ABOUT OURSELVES
AND ABOUT... LIFE IN GENERAL.
[PRISONERS SINGING]

SORRY SONS OF BITCHES.
Everett: SEEMS LIKE A YEAR AGO WE BUSTED OFF THE FARM.

[APPLAUSE]
THAT WAS WONDERFUL. THAT SURE WAS.
YES.
NOW, I KNOW THE SUNNYSIDERS WOULD AGREE WITH ME
WHEN I SAY THE GREAT STATE OF MISSISSIPPI
CANNOT AFFORD 4 MORE YEARS OF PAPPY O'DANIEL!
4 MORE YEARS OF CRONYISM!
NEPOTISM! RASCALISM!
OF SERVICE TO THE INTERESTS!
NOW, THE CHOICE, SHE'S A CLEAR 'UN.
PAPPY O'DANIEL, SLAVE OF THE INTERESTS...
HOMER STOKES, SERVANT OF THE LITTLE MAN.
AIN'T THAT RIGHT, LITTLE FELLA?
HE AIN'T LYIN'!
LADIES AND GENTLEMEN, THE LITTLE MAN HAS ADMONISHED ME
TO GRASP THE BROOM OF REFORM
AND SWEEP THIS STATE CLEAN!
IT'S GONNA BE, "BACK TO THE FLOUR MILL, PAPPY!
THE INTERESTS CAN TAKE CARE OF THEMSELVES!"
Homer: COME TUESDAY,

HELL, I AIN'T. WHAT'S THIS WHARVEY GALS?
YOUR NAME'S McGILL.
NO, SIR. NOT SINCE YOU GOT HIT BY THAT TRAIN.
WHAT ARE YOU TALKING ABOUT? I WASN'T HIT BY ANY TRAIN.
MAMA SAYS YOU WAS HIT BY A TRAIN.
BLOOEY! NOTHIN' LEFT.
JUST A GREASE SPOT ON THE L & N.
DAMN IT, I WASN'T HIT BY ANY TRAIN!
THAT'S WHY MAMA'S GOT US BACK TO WHARVEY.
THAT'S HER MAIDEN NAME.
YOU GOT A MAIDEN NAME, DADDY?
NO, DADDY DON'T HAVE A MAIDEN NAME. SEE--
Girl: THAT'S YOUR MISFORTUNE.
THAT'S RIGHT, AND NOW MAMA'S GOT A NEW BEAU.
HE'S A SUITOR.
YEAH, I HEARD ABOUT THAT.
Girl: MAMA SAYS HE'S BONA FIDE.
MMM.
HE GIVE HER A RING?
YES, SIR. A BIG 'UN.
LOT OF GEMS. MAMA CHECKED IT.
IT'S BONA FIDE.
HE'S A SUITOR.
WHAT'S HIS NAME?
VERNON T. WALDRIP.
UNCLE VERNON.
TILL TOMORROW.
THEN HE'S GONNA BE DADDY.
I AM THE ONLY DADDY YOU GOT.
I AM THE DAMN PATERFAMILIAS.
BUT YOU AIN'T BONA FIDE.
WHERE'S YOUR MAMA?
SHE'S AT THE FIVE-AND-DIME.
BUYING NIPPLES.
## THIS WAY ##

## KISS ME MORE ##
DADDY!
HELLO, SUGAR! HA HA!
Everett: HOW'S MY LITTLE GIRL?
HI.
WHO THE HELL'S THAT?
STARLA WHARVEY.
STARLA McGILL, YOU MEAN.
HOW COME YOU NEVER TOLD ME ABOUT HER?
'CAUSE YOU WAS HIT BY A TRAIN.
THAT'S ANOTHER THING.
WHY ARE YOU TELLING OUR GALS I WAS HIT BY A TRAIN?
LOTS OF RESPECTABLE PEOPLE BEEN HIT BY TRAINS.
JUDGE HOBBY OVER IN COOKVILLE WAS HIT BY A TRAIN.
WHAT WAS I SUPPOSED TO TELL 'EM,
THAT YOU WERE SENT TO THE PENAL FARM
AND I DIVORCED YOU FROM SHAME?
I TAKE YOUR POINT.
BUT IT DOES PUT ME IN A DAMNED AWKWARD POSITION
VIS àà V MY PROGENY.
Vernon: HELLO, PENNY.
IS THIS GENTLEMEN BOTHERING YOU?
YOU WALDRIP?
UH-HUH. THAT'S RIGHT.
HMM.
[SNIFFS]
YOU BEEN USING MY HAIR TREATMENT?
YOURHAIR TREATMENT?
EXCUSE ME.
I GOT NEWS FOR YOU.
IN CASE YOU HADN'T NOTICED, I WASN'T HIT BY A TRAIN,
AND I HAVE TRAVELED MANY A WEARY MILE
TO BE BACK WITH MY WIFE AND MY 6 DAUGHTERS.
Girl: 7, DADDY!
THAT AIN'T YOUR DADDY, ALVANELLE.
YOUR DADDY WAS HIT BY A TRAIN.
PENNY, YOU STOP THAT!
NO, YOU STOP IT! VERNON HERE'S GOT A JOB.
VERNON'S GOT PROSPECTS. HE'S BONA FIDE.
WHAT ARE YOU?
I'LL TELL YOU WHAT I AM--
I AM THEPATERFAMILIAS, AND YOU CAN'T MARRY HIM!
I CAN, I AM, AND I WILL, TOMORROW.
I GOT TO THINK ABOUT THE LITTLE WHARVEY GALS.
THEY LOOK TO ME FOR ANSWERS.
VERNON CAN SUPPORT 'EM
AND BUY 'EM LESSONS ON THE CLARINET.
THE ONLY GOOD THING YOU EVER DID FOR THE GALS
WAS GET HIT BY THAT TRAIN!
WHY, YOU LYING UNCONSTANT SUCCUBUS.
Vernon: WHOA, WHOA, WHOA!
YOU CAN'T SWEAR AT MY FIANCEE!
OH, YEAH?
WELL, YOU CAN'T MARRY MY WIFE!
[BABY FUSSING]
UNH! UNH!
[GROANS]
[CRASH]
WHO IS THAT MAN?
[YELLING]
HE'S NOT MY HUSBAND.
JUST A DRIFTER, I GUESS.
JUST SOME NO-ACCOUNT DRIFTER.
AAH! UNH!
AND STAY OUT OF THE "WOOLSWORTH"!
[MUSIC PLAYING]
Woman: I'LL BET SHE DOES IMITATIONS, TOO.
Everett: DECEITFUL, TWO-FACED SHE-WOLF.
NEVER TRUST A FEMALE, DELMAR.
REMEMBER THAT ONE SIMPLE PRECEPT
AND YOUR TIME WITH ME WILL NOT HAVE BEEN ILL-SPENT.
OK, EVERETT.
"HIT BY A TRAIN."
TRUTH MEANS NOTHING TO A WOMAN, DELMAR.
TRIUMPH OF THE SUBJECTIVE.
YOU EVER BEEN WITH A WOMAN?
WELL, I'VE...
I--I GOT TO GET THE FAMILY FARM BACK
BEFORE I CAN START THINKING ABOUT THAT.
THAT'S RIGHT. IF THEN.
BELIEVE ME, DELMAR, A WOMAN IS THE MOST FIENDISH
INSTRUMENT OF TORTURE EVER DEVISED
TO BEDEVIL THE DAYS OF MAN.
EVERETT, I NEVER FIGURED YOU FOR APATERFAMILIAS.
OHH, YES. I HAVE SPREAD MY SEED.
AND LOOK WHAT IT'S--
[MUSIC STOPS]
Everett: GODDAMN IT. WHAT THE HELL'S GOING ON?
[BLOWS WHISTLE]
[SHACKLES RATTLING]

Guard: OK, BOYS. ENJOY YOUR PICTURE SHOW.
[MUSIC STARTS]
Man in film: ## I HAVE NO MONEY, HONEY ##
## HOW CAN I CHANGE? ##
Pete: DO...NOT... SEEK THE TREASURE.
DO NOT...
SEEK THE TREASURE.
Pete: IT'S A BUSHWHACK.
THEY'RE FIXIN' AN AMBUSH.
DO NOT SEEK THE TREASURE.
WE--
WE THOUGHT YOU WAS...
A TOAD.
[SOFTLY] WE... THOUGHT...
YOU... WAS... A TOAD.
DO NOT SEEK THE TREASURE.
Guard: QUIET THERE! WATCH THE PICTURE!
Pappy: I SIGNED THAT BILL.
I SIGNED A DOZEN AGRICULTURE BILLS.
EVERYONE KNOWS I'M A FRIEND OF THE FARMER.
WHAT DO I GOTTA DO, START TENDING LIVESTOCK?
WE CAN'T DO THAT, DADDY.
WE MIGHT OFFEND OUR CONSTITUENCY.
WE AIN'T GOT A CONSTITUENCY!
STOKES GOT A CONSTITUENCY!
WELL, IT'S A WELL-RUN CAMPAIGN.
MIDGET AND BROOM AND WHATNOT.
DEVIL HIS DUE.
HELL OF AN ORGANIZATION.
SAY, I GOT AN IDEA.
Man: WHAT'S THAT, JUNIOR?
WE CAN HIRE US A LITTLE FELLA
EVEN SMALLER THAN STOKES'S.
YOU SLUMP-SHOULDERED SACK OF NUTS!
WHY, WE'D LOOK LIKE A BUNCH OF JOHNNY-COME-LATELYS,
BREAKIN' OUT OUR OWN MIDGET.
DON'T MATTER HOW STUMPY!
AND THAT'S THE GODDAMN PROBLEM RIGHT THERE.
PEOPLE THINK STOKES HAS GOT FRESH IDEAS.
HE'SAU COURANT AND WE'RE THE PAST!
IT'S A PROBLEM OF--
THAT'S RIGHT. PERCEPTION.
REASON WHY HE'S PULLING OUR PANTS DOWN.
GONNA PADDLE A LITTLE BEHIND.
AIN'T GONNA PADDLE IT. GONNA KICK IT. REAL HARD.
Man: NO, I BELIEVE HE'S GONNA PADDLE IT.
I DON'T BELIEVE THAT'S A PROPER DESCRIPTION.
WELL, THAT'S HOW I'D CHARACTERIZE IT.
I BELIEVE IT'S MORE OF A KICKIN' SITUATION.
[THUNDER]
[GASPS]
GOD-- GOD FORGIVE ME.
I COULD NOT GAZE UPON THAT FIRESHOW.
PETE.
[SQUEALS]
HOLD STILL!
CAN'T... STAND MUCH LONGER.
IT WAS--IT WAS A MO-MOMENT OF WEAKNESS.
QUIT YER BABBLIN', PETE. WE GOTTA SKEDADDLE.
Delmar: THAT'S ALL I GOT.
THEY LURED ME OUT FOR A BATHE
AND THEN THEY DUNKED ME, TRUSSED ME UP LIKE A HOG,
AND TURNED ME IN FOR THE BOUNTY.
I SHOULD HAVE GUESSED IT.
TYPICAL WOMANLY BEHAVIOR.
WE'RE JUST LUCKY WE LEFT
BEFORE THEY CAME BACK FOR US.
WE DIDN'T ABANDON YOU, PETE.
WE JUST THOUGHT YOU WAS A TOAD.
NO, THEY NEVER DID TURN ME INTO A TOAD.
WELL, THAT WAS OUR MISTAKE THEN.
AND WE WAS BEAT UP BY A BIBLE SALESMAN
AND BANISHED FROM WOOLWORTHS.
I DON'T KNOW, EVERETT.
WAS IT THE ONE BRANCH OR ALL OF THEM?
WELL, I AIN'T HAD IT EASY, EITHER, BOYS.
FRANKLY, UH, WELL, I--
I SPILT MY GUTS ABOUT THE TREASURE.
HUH?
I'M AWFUL SORRY I BETRAYED YOU, FELLAS.
MUST BE MY HOGWALLOP BLOOD.
THAT'S ALL RIGHT, PETE.
AWFUL WHITE OF YOU TO TAKE IT LIKE THAT, EVERETT.
I FEEL WRETCHED.
SPOILING YOUR PLAY FOR A MILLION DOLLAR POINT TWO.
Pete: [SOBBING] YOU SHOULD RIP OUT MY GUTS.
OH, THAT'S ALL RIGHT.
[SOBS]
YOU BOYS ARE TRUE FRIENDS! OHH!
YOU'RE MY BOON COMPANIONS.
PETE, I DON'T WANT YOU
TO BEAT YOURSELF UP ABOUT THIS, EH?
I CAN'T HELP IT,
BUT THAT'S A-A WONDERFUL THING TO SAY.
[SOBBING]
YEAH.
PETE, UH...
THE FACT OF THE MATTER IS...
DAMN IT.
THERE AIN'T NO TREASURE.
FACT OF THE MATTER IS THERE NEVER WAS.
BUT--
SO WHERE'S ALL THE MONEY FROM THE ARMORED CAR JOB?
NEVER KNOCKED OVER NO ARMORED CAR.
SENT UP FOR PRACTICING LAW WITHOUT A LICENSE.
BUT--
DAMN IT, I HAD TO BUST OUT.
MY WIFE WROTE ME SHE WAS GETTING MARRIED,
I GOTTA STOP IT.
I HAD 2 WEEKS LEFT ON MY SENTENCE.
I COULDN'T WAIT 2 WEEKS.
SHE'S GETTING MARRIED TOMORROW.
MY ADDED TIME FOR THE ESCAPE,
I DON'T GET OUT NOW TILL 19... 87.
I AM SORRY ABOUT THAT.
I'LL BE...
84 YEARS OLD.
I GUESS THEY'LL TACK ON 50 YEARS FOR ME, TOO.
BOYS, WE WAS CHAINED TOGETHER.
I HAD TO TELL YOU SOMETHING.
BUSTING OUT ALONE WAS NOT AN OPTION.
I'M SORRY.
84 YEARS OLD.
WELL, I'LL ONLY BE 82.

UNH!

[CHOKING] I DO APOLOGIZE ABOUT THAT, PETE.

LET'S NOT FORGET THOSE LADIES, Y'ALL,
LOOKING TO US FOR PROTECTION
FROM DARKIES,
FROM JEWS,
FROM PAPISTS,
AND FROM ALL THOSE SMART-ASS FOLKS
SAY WE COME DESCENDED FROM MONKEYS.
THAT'S NOT MY CULTURE AND HERITAGE.
Klansmen: YES!
IS THAT YOUR CULTURE AND HERITAGE?
Klansmen: NO!
AND SO...
WE GONNA HANG US A NEGRO.
Klansmen: HOORAY, HOORAY!
[KLANSMEN CHANTING]

Everett: HEY, HEY, TOMMY.
HUH?
Everett: TOMMY, WE COME TO RESCUE YOU.
THAT'S MIGHTY KIND OF YOU BOYS,
BUT I DON'T THINK NOTHING'S GOING TO SAVE ME NOW.
Tommy: THE DEVIL'S COME TO COLLECT HIS DUE.
Pete: DON'T BE CRAZY, TOMMY.
YOU DON'T WANT TO GET HANGED.
WELL, NAH, I DON'T RECKON I DO,
BUT THAT'S THE WAY IT SEEMS TO BE WORKING OUT.
Everett: LISTEN, TOMMY, I GOT A PLAN.
[KLANSMEN GASP]
Klansmen: NO!

THE COLOR GUARD IS COLORED.
[KLANSMEN SHOUTING]
WHO MADE THEM THE COLOR GUARD?

[WOMEN SINGING]
Pappy: LEAVE ME ALONE. GET YOUR HANDS OFF ME.
I CAN DO THIS MYSELF. GET AWAY FROM ME.
I'M SAYING WE SHOULD HIRE THIS MAN AWAY.
THAT'S A GOOD IDEA, PAPPY.
HELL OF AN IDEA.
CAN'T BEAT 'EM, JOIN 'EM.
HAVE HIM JOIN US. RUN OUR CAMPAIGN
INSTEAD OF THAT EGGHEAD'S.
CLASS, POWER, WEALTH.
NO ONE SAYS NO TO PAPPY O'DANIEL.
OH, GRACIOUS, NO--

WHAT'S HIS NAME AGAIN?

WALDRIP.
VERNON WALDRIP.
VERNON T. WALDRIP.

Everett: IT'S AN INVITATION-ONLY AFFAIR.
WE'LL HAVE TO SNEAK IN
THROUGH THE SERVICE ENTRANCE.
HOLD ON.
Pete: WAIT A MINUTE.
WHO ELECTED YOU LEADER OF THIS OUTFIT?
SINCE WE'VE BEEN FOLLOWING YOUR LEAD,
WE GOT NOTHING BUT TROUBLE.
I'VE GOTTEN THIS CLOSE TO BEING STRUNG UP
AND CONSUMED IN A FIRE AND WHIPPED NO END
AND SUNSTROKED AND SOGGIED.
AND TURNED INTO A FROG.
HE WASN'T TURNED INTO A FROG.
ALMOST LOVED UP, THOUGH.
SO, YOU'RE AGAINST ME NOW, TOO?
IS THAT HOW IT IS, BOYS?
THE WHOLE WORLD
AND GOD ALMIGHTY--
NOW YOU?
I GUESS I DESERVE IT.
[SIGHS]
BOYS...
I KNOW THAT I MADE SOME TACTICAL MISTAKES,
BUT IF YOU JUST STICK WITH ME,
I GOT A PLAN. BELIEVE ME, BOYS,
WE CAN FIX THIS THING,
AND I CAN GET MY WIFE BACK,
AND WE CAN GET OUT OF HERE.
[CAR HORN HONKS]
GODDAMN DISGRACE!
MADE A TRAVESTY OF THE ENTIRE EVENING.
OHH.
WHAT I WOULDN'T GIVE TO GET AHOLD OF THOSE AGITATORS.
I MEAN, WHOEVER HEARD OF SUCH BEHAVIOR,
EVEN AMONGST THE COLORED?
OR MULATTOS, MAYBE.
I SUSPECT SOME MISCEGENATION IN THEIR HERITAGE.
HOW ELSE YOU GOING TO EXPLAIN IT?
USING A CONFEDERATE FLAG AS A MISSILE...
CRAZY! NO ONE'S EVER GOING TO BELIEVE
WE'RE A REAL BAND.
NO. IT'S GOING TO WORK.
I JUST GOT TO GET CLOSE ENOUGH TO TALK TO HER.
TAKING OFF WITH US HAS GOT MORE FUTURE
THAN MARRYING SOME GUY NAMED WALDRIP.
I'M GODDAMN BONA FIDE.
I GOT THE ANSWERS.

LADIES AND GENTLEMENS,

THE GREAT STATE OF MISSISSIPPI--
PAPPY O'DANIEL, GOVERNOR--
WANTS TO THANK THE SOGGY BOTTOM BOYS
FOR THAT WONDERFUL PERFORMANCE.
AND IT LOOKS LIKE
THE ONLY MAN IN THIS GREAT STATE
WHO AIN'T A MUSIC LOVER
IS MY ESTEEMED OPPONENT IN THE UPCOMING,
HOMER STOKES.
YEAH, WELL, THERE AIN'T NO ACCOUNTING FOR TASTE.
[CROWD BOOS]
HE SOUNDED TO ME LIKE HE WAS HARBORING
SOME KIND OF HATEFUL GRUDGE
AGAINST THE SOGGY BOTTOM BOYS
ON ACCOUNT OF THEIR ROUGH AND ROWDY PAST.
[BOOS]
Pappy: LOOKS LIKE--
LOOKS LIKE...
HOMER STOKES IS THE KIND OF FELLOW
WANTS TO CAST THE FIRST STONE.
[CROWD BOOS]
WELL, I'M WITH YOU, FOLKS.
I'M A FORGIVE AND FORGET CHRISTIAN,
AND I SAY IF THEIR RAMBUNCTIOUSNESS

THE SOGGY BOTTOM BOYS

I GUESS VERNON T. WALDRIP

MAYBE I CAN THROW A LITTLE PATRONAGE HIS WAY--
GET HIM A JOB DIGGING DITCHES
OR ROUNDING UP STRAY DOGS.
SO, IS THE MARRIAGE OFF, THEN, MISS WHARVEY?
IT'S McGILL.
NO. THE MARRIAGE WILL TAKE PLACE AS PLANNED.
WITH A LITTLE CHANGE OF CAST.
ME AND THE LITTLE LADY ARE GOING TO PICK UP THE PIECES
AND RETIE THE KNOT, MIXAPHORICALLY SPEAKING.
YOU BOYS ARE INVITED, OF COURSE.
HELL, YOU'RE THE BEST MEN.
I ALREADY GOT THE RINGS.
WHERE'S YOUR RING, HONEY?
I AIN'T WORN IT SINCE OUR DIVORCE CAME THROUGH.
IT MUST STILL BE IN THE ROLL-TOP IN THE OLD CABIN.
NEVER THOUGHT I'D NEED IT.
VERNON BOUGHT ONE ENCRUSTED WITH JEWELS.
NOW'S THE TIME TO BUY IT OFF HIM CHEAP.
WE AIN'T GETTING MARRIED WITH HIS RING.
YOU SAID YOU'D CHANGED.
HONEY, IT'S JUST AN OLD PEWTER THING.
AIN'T GOING TO BE NO WEDDING.
IT'S JUST A SYMBOL, HONEY.
NO WEDDING.
WE'LL GO FETCH IT WITH YOU, EVERETT.
IT'S JUST A-- SHUT UP, DELMAR.
IT'S JUST A SYMBOL.
I'VE SPOKEN MY PIECE AND COUNTED TO 3.
SHE COUNTED TO 3.
GOD DAMN IT.
SHE COUNTED TO 3.
SON OF A BITCH!
YOU HAVE ANY IDEA HOW FAR THAT CABIN IS?
[MUSIC PLAYING]
[CROWD SHOUTING]
[GEORGE LAUGHING]
GEORGE?
HELLO, BOYS!
WELL, THESE LITTLE MEN
FINALLY CAUGHT UP WITH THE CRIMINAL OF THE CENTURY.
LOOKS LIKE THE CHAIR FOR GEORGE NELSON.
George: YUP, GONNA ELECTRIFY ME.
I'M GOING TO GO OFF LIKE A ROMAN CANDLE.
HA HA HA!
20,000 VOLTS
CHASING A RABBIT THROUGH YOURS TRULY.
George: GOL DAMN,
GONNA SUCK ALL THE POWER RIGHT OUT OF THE STATE.
GONNA SHOOT SPARKS OUT THE TOP OF MY HEAD
AND LIGHTNING FROM MY FINGERTIPS!
George: I'M GEORGE NELSON,
AND I'M FEELING 10 FEET TALL!
LOOKS LIKE GEORGE IS RIGHT BACK ON TOP AGAIN.
Woman: COW KILLER!
[BELL TINKLES]
[MOOS]
WELL, AT LEAST YOU BOYS GET TO SEE
THE ANCESTRAL MANSE--
THE HOME WHERE I SPENT SO MANY A HAPPY DAY
IN THE BOSOM OF MY FAMILY
REFUGIN', IF YOU WILL--
WITH A MIGHTY OAK TREE OUT FRONT
Everett: AND A HAPPY LITTLE TIRE SWING ON IT.
WHERE'S THE HAPPY LITTLE TIRE SWING?
Cooley: END OF THE ROAD, BOYS.
NO. WAIT A MINUTE.
Man: LET'S GO, BOYS.
Cooley: IT'S HAD ITS TWISTS AND TURNS.
NOW IT DEPOSITS YOU HERE.
WAIT A MINUTE.
Cooley: YOU HAVE ELUDED FATE,
AND YOU HAVE ELUDED ME
FOR THE LAST TIME.
TIE THEIR HANDS, BOYS.
YOU CAN'T DO THIS, NOW.
DIDN'T KNOW YOU'D BE BRINGING A FRIEND.
HE'LL JUST HAVE TO WAIT HIS TURN,
Cooley: SHARE ONE OF YOUR GRAVES.
YOU CAN'T DO THIS.
WE JUST GOT PARDONED BY THE GOVERNOR HISSELF.
IT WENT OUT ON THE RADIO.
IS THAT RIGHT?
[GROWLS]
WELL, WE AIN'T GOT A RADIO.
GOD HAVE MERCY.
## YOU ##
## GOT TO GO ##
## TO THAT LONESOME VALLEY ##
## YOU ##
## WHOA ##
## GOT ##
IT AIN'T FITTIN'.
IT AIN'T THE LAW.
THE LAW?
Gravediggers: ## TO GO ##
THE LAW IS A HUMAN INSTITUTION.
## NOBODY ELSE ##
## CAN GO THERE FOR YOU, THOUGH ##
PERHAPS YOU SHOULD START MAKING YOUR PRAYERS.
Gravediggers: ## WHOA ##
## GOT ##
## TO GO ##
OH, MY GOD.
EVERETT?
TOMMY, I'M SORRY WE GOT YOU INTO THIS.
GOOD LORD...
WHAT DO WE DO?
## BY ##
## YOURSELF ##
## WHOA ##
OH, LORD...
PLEASE LOOK DOWN AND RECOGNIZE
US POOR SINNERS.
PLEASE, LORD.
I JUST WANT TO SEE MY DAUGHTERS AGAIN.
I'VE BEEN SEPARATED FROM MY FAMILY FOR SO LONG.
I KNOW I'VE BEEN GUILTY OF PRIDE
AND SHARP DEALING.
I'M SORRY THAT I TURNED MY BACK ON YOU.
Everett: FORGIVE ME.
WE'RE HELPLESS, LORD.
FOR THE SAKE OF MY FAMILY.
FOR TOMMY'S SAKE.
FOR DELMAR'S AND PETE'S.
LET ME SEE MY DAUGHTERS AGAIN, LORD.
Everett: HELP US, PLEASE.
Gravediggers: ## YOU GOT TO GO ##

[CLINKING]
[GASPS]
[GRUNTING]
AHH. AHH.
A MIRACLE.
IT WAS A MIRACLE!
DELMAR, DON'T BE IGNORANT.
I TOLD YOU THEY WAS FLOODING THIS VALLEY.
NO! THAT AIN'T IT!
WE PRAYED TO GOD AND HE PITIED US!
WELL, IT NEVER FAILS.
ONCE AGAIN, YOU TWO HAYSEEDS ARE SHOWIN'
HOW MUCH YOU WANT FOR INTELLECT.
THERE'S A PERFECTLY SCIENTIFIC EXPLANATION
FOR WHAT JUST HAPPENED.
THAT AIN'T THE TUNE YOU WAS SINGIN'
BACK THERE AT THE GALLOWS!
WELL, ANY HUMAN BEING WILL CAST ABOUT
IN A MOMENT OF STRESS.
NO, THE FACT IS, THEY'RE FLOODING THIS VALLEY
SO THEY CAN HYDROELECTRIC UP THE WHOLE DURN STATE.
YES, SIR, THE SOUTH IS GONNA CHANGE.
EVERYTHING'S GONNA BE PUT ON ELECTRICITY
AND RUN ON A PAYING BASIS.
OUT WITH THE OLD SPIRITUAL MUMBO-JUMBO,
THE SUPERSTITIONS, AND THE BACKWARD WAYS.
WE'RE GONNA SEE A BRAVE NEW WORLD
WHERE THEY RUN EVERYBODY A WIRE
AND HOOK US ALL UP TO A GRID.
YES, SIR, A VERITABLE AGE OF REASON.
LIKE THE ONE THEY HAD IN FRANCE.
NOT A MOMENT TOO SOON.
[COW BELL RINGS]
NOT A MOMENT TOO SOON.
HEY, THERE'S TOMMY.
Everett: TOMMY, WHAT YOU RIDIN' THERE?
UNH! WHOA.
ROLL-TOP DESK.
Gals: ## MY LATEST SUN IS SINKING FAST ##
## MY RACE IS NEARLY RUN ##
"ALL'S WELL THAT ENDS WELL," SOME POET SAID.
THAT'S RIGHT, HONEY.
DON'T MIND TELLING YOU I'M AWFUL PLEASED
MY ADVENTURING DAYS HAVE COME TO AN END.
TIME FOR THIS OLD BOY TO ENJOY SOME REPOSE.
THAT'S GOOD, HONEY.
YOU WERE RIGHT ABOUT THAT RING, TOO.
ANY OTHER WEDDING BAND WOULDN'T DO.
THIS HERE WAS FORE-ORDAINED.
FATE WAS A-SMILIN' ON ME.
THAT'S NOT MY RING.
WHAT? NOT YOUR RING?
THAT'S ONE OF AUNT HERLENE'S.
YOU SAID IT WAS IN THE ROLL-TOP DESK.
I SAID I THOUGHT IT WAS IN THE ROLL-TOP DESK.
NO, YOU SAID--
OR UNDER THE MATTRESS.
OR MAYBE IN MY CHIFFOROBE. I DON'T KNOW.
WELL, I'M SORRY, HONEY.
WE NEED THAT RING.
THAT RING IS AT THE BOTTOM OF A PRETTY DURN BIG LAKE.
UH-UH.
A 9,000-HECTARE LAKE.
I DON'T CARE IF IT'S 90,000. THAT LAKE WAS NOT MY DOING.
OF COURSE NOT, HONEY--
I COUNTED TO 3, HONEY.
NO, WAIT, HONEY.
FINDING ONE LITTLE RING IN THE MIDDLE
OF ALL THAT WATER IS ONE HELL OF A HEROIC TASK!
## AND GIVES ME VICTORY ##
## O, COME, ANGEL BAND ##
## COME AND ##
## AROUND ME STAND ##
## O, BEAR ME AWAY ON YOUR SNOW WHITE WINGS ##
## TO MY IMMORTAL HOME ##
## O, BEAR ME AWAY ON YOUR SNOW WHITE WINGS ##
## TO MY IMMORTAL HOME ####
