Okay. First off, I don't even wanna know who was on the other end of that phone. It was the gophers, wasn't it?
Well, I...
Here's...
No, don't. I don't wanna know. Why do you do this to me? How do you think that makes me look?
So this... This is about you?
I was having a little fun. I mean, you should try it. Okay, it starts with a smile, then it slowly...builds and...
You promised to help me with the brush around the fence. You know it's coyote season.
Geez, coyotes. I-I don't get it. What's the big deal? They're coyotes. Them tiny, us big! What are they gonna do?
You have a lot to learn.
And y'know, I-I don't get the fence thing. Really, it-it can't keep 'em out.
That fence defines our space. And as long I'm still kickin', no animal will be harmed inside that fence.
Okay, but that's what you do. [stands up] YOU, okay? If you're tryna groom me to be the big leader, just give it up. It's not me, Pop. I mean, if I was in charge, things would be different. Every animal for himself. That's the way it should be. [begins to walk out]
Otis... [Otis turns around] A strong man stands up for himself. A stronger man stands up for others.
Oh, shoot. Ya know, I-I forgot my pen.
And your shift tonight?
I'll be there.
Otis, you're gonna have to grow up one day. You'll never be happy if you spend all your time goofing off.
No? Just watch me. [walks out, Ben crosses his arms]
