﻿1
00:00:57,224 --> 00:00:58,683
I'm very honored to introduce

2
00:00:58,767 --> 00:01:00,768
our guest lecturer today.

3
00:01:00,853 --> 00:01:04,355
He graduated from here
about 15 years ago.

4
00:01:04,440 --> 00:01:07,316
He's gone on
to a fabulous career.

5
00:01:07,401 --> 00:01:10,361
I can't think of a single
person who's more qualified

6
00:01:10,446 --> 00:01:13,614
or more adept
at the final procedures

7
00:01:13,699 --> 00:01:16,659
you've been studying lately.

8
00:01:16,744 --> 00:01:18,327
Now you've learned the science,

9
00:01:18,412 --> 00:01:22,165
now's your chance
to learn the art.

10
00:01:22,249 --> 00:01:25,710
Students, Mr. Bernie Tiede.

11
00:01:27,004 --> 00:01:31,340
Thank you, Professor.

12
00:01:31,425 --> 00:01:33,009
Thank you.

13
00:01:33,093 --> 00:01:34,886
It's always an honor
to be asked back

14
00:01:34,970 --> 00:01:37,472
and I do it gladly
because I feel...

15
00:01:37,556 --> 00:01:39,474
if even one thing I say
or demonstrate today

16
00:01:39,558 --> 00:01:42,977
helps you in any way as you
embark on your careers,

17
00:01:43,061 --> 00:01:45,188
then everyone
will have benefited.

18
00:01:45,272 --> 00:01:48,858
You, those who are grieving,

19
00:01:48,942 --> 00:01:50,943
and the deceased.

20
00:01:53,405 --> 00:01:54,947
The nails have to be clipped,

21
00:01:55,032 --> 00:01:57,283
shaped and brought
back to life.

22
00:01:57,367 --> 00:02:01,204
And you must cast
the nails to the person.

23
00:02:01,288 --> 00:02:02,830
You wouldn't want a mechanic

24
00:02:02,915 --> 00:02:03,998
to have the nails
of a flight attendant.

25
00:02:04,082 --> 00:02:05,124
Would you?

26
00:02:09,838 --> 00:02:11,839
It is very important to
remove any unwanted nasal,

27
00:02:11,924 --> 00:02:16,385
ear, or facial hair.

28
00:02:16,470 --> 00:02:18,387
We can never be too vigilant

29
00:02:18,472 --> 00:02:24,018
in the lookout for that
one stray rogue hair.

30
00:02:25,604 --> 00:02:27,396
The eyes are often
a minor problem

31
00:02:27,481 --> 00:02:29,607
because they usually
want to stay open.

32
00:02:29,691 --> 00:02:34,153
It's almost like they want one last
look at this miraculous world.

33
00:02:34,238 --> 00:02:36,405
But with some Super Glue...

34
00:02:36,490 --> 00:02:39,075
a little dab will do you...

35
00:02:39,159 --> 00:02:42,578
and it's no more peeking.

36
00:02:42,663 --> 00:02:46,958
Even though the features have
been set during the embalming,

37
00:02:47,042 --> 00:02:48,960
you have to reassess
and readjust

38
00:02:49,044 --> 00:02:56,217
because of continuing
emaciation and dehydration.

39
00:02:56,301 --> 00:02:58,302
Perfect expression of the mouth

40
00:02:58,387 --> 00:03:01,848
would be relaxed, natural,
with a little bit of a smile.

41
00:03:01,932 --> 00:03:04,767
Can't have him looking
unhappy to be there.

42
00:03:04,852 --> 00:03:08,729
And we must always be on guard
for the mischievous lip drift.

43
00:03:08,814 --> 00:03:11,941
Even the slightest hint of
teeth can be disastrous.

44
00:03:12,025 --> 00:03:17,613
You cannot have grief
tragically become a comedy.

45
00:03:17,698 --> 00:03:20,324
Then, after a foundation

46
00:03:20,409 --> 00:03:24,620
mixed with massage cream
to prevent dehydration,

47
00:03:24,705 --> 00:03:26,789
even out coloration,

48
00:03:26,874 --> 00:03:29,792
then apply highlights.

49
00:03:29,877 --> 00:03:32,044
Do not over-cosmetize.

50
00:03:32,129 --> 00:03:35,298
Most of those who service the
deceased apply far too much blush.

51
00:03:35,382 --> 00:03:37,341
J ust a note
to always remember:

52
00:03:37,426 --> 00:03:40,553
Too much color does not
make one look more alive.

53
00:03:40,637 --> 00:03:42,430
The last detail to be managed

54
00:03:42,514 --> 00:03:45,224
is the deceased's
body position.

55
00:03:45,309 --> 00:03:47,518
Left hand over the right,

56
00:03:47,603 --> 00:03:50,521
over the umbilicus,
in an attitude of ease,

57
00:03:50,606 --> 00:03:52,607
of repose, of retirement.

58
00:03:52,691 --> 00:03:56,027
The position of the head
is oh so important.

59
00:03:56,111 --> 00:03:57,695
Neither star gazing

60
00:03:57,779 --> 00:03:59,238
nor navel gazing,

61
00:03:59,323 --> 00:04:00,823
but perfectly centered,

62
00:04:00,908 --> 00:04:03,659
turned ever so slightly
to the right...

63
00:04:03,744 --> 00:04:05,328
in greeting.

64
00:04:07,080 --> 00:04:08,748
He's now been cosmetized,

65
00:04:08,832 --> 00:04:10,708
he's ready to be dressed,

66
00:04:10,792 --> 00:04:13,961
and casketed.

Bernie was a very
charismatic man.

77
00:04:52,125 --> 00:04:54,460
A loving person.

78
00:04:54,544 --> 00:04:58,798

Real good with people,
a real people person,

84
00:05:15,148 --> 00:05:17,566
always had his hand out,
ready to shake it,

85
00:05:17,651 --> 00:05:20,444
never met a stranger,
good with names,

86
00:05:20,529 --> 00:05:22,238
good with questions.

87
00:05:22,322 --> 00:05:24,115
He could remember if your
daughter was at Texas,

88
00:05:24,199 --> 00:05:26,283
and your son was at A&M.

89
00:05:26,368 --> 00:05:28,077
He'd remember that and he'd ask
you questions about those kids.

90
00:05:28,161 --> 00:05:30,371

If the people in Carthage were

99
00:05:56,064 --> 00:05:59,483
to make a list of those people

100
00:05:59,568 --> 00:06:02,361
that they thought
would get to heaven,

101
00:06:02,446 --> 00:06:07,450
I am sure that Bernie would be
right at the top of the list.

His personality was,
just, like, magnetic, okay?

106
00:06:21,798 --> 00:06:24,467
So people were drawn
to him all the time.

107
00:06:24,551 --> 00:06:28,095
And because of that,
that personality,

108
00:06:28,180 --> 00:06:31,223
before too long, he was the
most popular man in Carthage.

109
00:06:31,308 --> 00:06:35,269

111
00:06:54,956 --> 00:06:57,166
Carthage is in east Texas.

112
00:06:57,250 --> 00:06:59,919
And it's totally different
from the rest of Texas,

113
00:07:00,003 --> 00:07:04,507
which could be five
different states, actually.

114
00:07:04,591 --> 00:07:09,804
You got your west Texas out there
with a bunch of flat ranches.

115
00:07:09,888 --> 00:07:15,559
U p north, you got them Dallas
snobs with their Mercedes,

116
00:07:15,644 --> 00:07:18,813
and then you got Houston,
the carcinogenic coast

117
00:07:18,897 --> 00:07:22,441
all the way up to Louisiana.

118
00:07:22,526 --> 00:07:25,694
Then down south, San Antonio...

119
00:07:25,779 --> 00:07:28,906
that's where the Tex
meets the Mex.

120
00:07:28,990 --> 00:07:31,200
Like the food.

121
00:07:31,284 --> 00:07:32,827
And then in central Texas,

122
00:07:32,911 --> 00:07:36,205
you got the People's
Republic of Austin

123
00:07:36,289 --> 00:07:40,626
with a bunch of hairy-legged
women and liberal fruitcakes.

124
00:07:40,710 --> 00:07:45,589
Of course, I left out the panhandle,
and a lot of people do, but...

125
00:07:45,674 --> 00:07:49,385
Carthage... this is
where the south begins.

126
00:07:49,469 --> 00:07:52,263
This is life
behind the pine curtain.

127
00:07:52,347 --> 00:07:55,057
And, and, and truth be
known, it's a good place.

128
00:07:55,142 --> 00:07:58,102
Carthage has such
a good reputation

129
00:07:58,186 --> 00:08:02,064
that it's listed in The Best Small
Towns of America, Volume Two

130
00:08:02,149 --> 00:08:05,651
as the best small
town in Texas.

131
00:08:05,735 --> 00:08:08,487
That's right. Page 157.

132
00:08:08,572 --> 00:08:13,409
Oh, hell, most people live in
Carthage because they were born here.

133
00:08:13,493 --> 00:08:17,955
Carthage sits on what was once one of
the biggest gas fields in the world.

134
00:08:18,039 --> 00:08:20,833
Back in the gas
boom of the 40s and 50s,

135
00:08:20,917 --> 00:08:25,171
a lot of people
got rich around here.

136
00:08:25,255 --> 00:08:27,298
Well, as I recall,

137
00:08:27,382 --> 00:08:28,924
we were gonna get a lot of
the older people in town

138
00:08:29,009 --> 00:08:30,843
leaving for
the sweet hereafter,

139
00:08:30,927 --> 00:08:32,720
and we got a little
backed up in the cold room,

140
00:08:32,804 --> 00:08:35,014
frankly, I was
looking for some help.

141
00:08:35,098 --> 00:08:37,892
Bernie must've seen
an ad or something.

142
00:08:37,976 --> 00:08:39,810
He called from Louisiana and
I hired him over the phone,

143
00:08:39,895 --> 00:08:42,104
not fully knowing
what to expect.

144
00:08:42,189 --> 00:08:43,898
These are our viewing rooms.

145
00:08:43,982 --> 00:08:45,649
Oh, look at that, you've
got these partitions.

146
00:08:45,734 --> 00:08:47,902
That's so nice.

147
00:08:47,986 --> 00:08:51,113
So, you got your associate's degree
in Mortuary Science at State?

148
00:08:51,198 --> 00:08:52,364
Yes, sir.

149
00:08:52,449 --> 00:08:53,407
Play any ball over there?

150
00:08:53,491 --> 00:08:55,075
U h, no no, sir.

151
00:08:55,160 --> 00:08:56,785
I wanted to concentrate
on my studies,

152
00:08:56,870 --> 00:08:58,787
as much as I loved
football and whatnot.

153
00:08:58,872 --> 00:09:00,873
Now here's our sanctuary.

154
00:09:00,957 --> 00:09:02,625
It'll seat one twenty five.

155
00:09:02,709 --> 00:09:04,835
Look at these green benches.
I love them.

156
00:09:04,920 --> 00:09:06,420
Yeah, we changed those.

157
00:09:06,504 --> 00:09:08,464
We had them normal
brown for so long

158
00:09:08,548 --> 00:09:10,507
and I was a little worried about this green.
I don't know.

159
00:09:10,592 --> 00:09:12,176
People don't complain.

160
00:09:12,260 --> 00:09:14,260
I... I don't either,
I think they're great.

161
00:09:17,891 --> 00:09:19,808
Oh, I hit the jackpot
with that guy.

162
00:09:19,893 --> 00:09:23,687
He's the most qualified
young man I ever met.

163
00:09:23,772 --> 00:09:25,856
He was excellent at removals,

164
00:09:25,941 --> 00:09:27,858
an artist in
the embalming room,

165
00:09:27,943 --> 00:09:29,985
could fix hair like
nobody in the business.

166
00:09:30,070 --> 00:09:31,987
Waited well on the families
in the morning parlor,

167
00:09:32,072 --> 00:09:34,240
could sing like a bird.

168
00:09:34,324 --> 00:09:35,950
He ran a funeral
like a professional,

169
00:09:36,034 --> 00:09:37,534
any aspect of
the funeral business:

170
00:09:37,619 --> 00:09:39,411
Eulogizing, scripture reading,

171
00:09:39,496 --> 00:09:41,997
singing... man, he could do it.

172
00:09:42,082 --> 00:09:43,791
But most of all,

173
00:09:43,875 --> 00:09:46,794
we're gonna remember
Fred as our friend.

174
00:09:46,878 --> 00:09:50,422
Our... really... close... friend.

You poor thing.

181
00:10:43,810 --> 00:10:45,561
This is so hard.

182
00:10:45,645 --> 00:10:49,815
It's just so hard.

183
00:10:49,899 --> 00:10:52,901
You're very brave.

184
00:10:52,986 --> 00:10:54,403
Here now.

185
00:10:54,487 --> 00:10:55,529
Oh, honey,

186
00:10:55,613 --> 00:10:57,114
he was a magician.

187
00:10:57,198 --> 00:11:00,242
He made all of us
just look beautiful.

188
00:11:00,327 --> 00:11:04,121
I mean, he could make your
wrinkles all just go away,

189
00:11:04,205 --> 00:11:07,041
and he would, if, if
you had a overbite,

190
00:11:07,125 --> 00:11:09,752
he'd fix it so it wouldn't
be so sticky outie.

191
00:11:09,836 --> 00:11:15,090
And he would take a bouquet
of small white roses

192
00:11:15,175 --> 00:11:16,967
and put it in your hand.

193
00:11:17,052 --> 00:11:20,763
I mean, he just made
everybody look so beautiful.

194
00:11:20,847 --> 00:11:24,641
Except too bad you were dead.

195
00:11:24,726 --> 00:11:26,894
It seemed like no matter
what happened to us,

196
00:11:26,978 --> 00:11:29,188
whether it was car
wrecks or heart attacks

197
00:11:29,272 --> 00:11:34,026
or household poisons, or guns left
locked and loaded around the house,

198
00:11:34,110 --> 00:11:35,944
or choking on a little
piece of meat,

199
00:11:36,029 --> 00:11:38,614
in the end, he always
made us look good.

200
00:11:38,698 --> 00:11:40,908
Oh, you name the song,
he'd sing it.

201
00:11:40,992 --> 00:11:44,036
If country folks came in requesting
an old gospel, he'd sing it.

202
00:11:44,120 --> 00:11:46,288
Or trailer trash came in
requesting Loretta Lynn,

203
00:11:46,373 --> 00:11:48,207
he'd sing that, too.

204
00:11:48,291 --> 00:11:50,959
But as great as Bernie
was at performing a service,

205
00:11:51,044 --> 00:11:52,795
he was even better at sales.

206
00:11:52,879 --> 00:11:54,713
If you pardon my reach,
Mrs. Thompson,

207
00:11:54,798 --> 00:11:56,465
this is a memory drawer.

208
00:11:56,549 --> 00:11:58,509
It wasn't bullshit,
he really believed

209
00:11:58,593 --> 00:12:00,135
that all those little
touches were necessary.

210
00:12:00,220 --> 00:12:01,720
He even came up with this idea:

211
00:12:01,805 --> 00:12:03,305
For 150 extra...

212
00:12:03,390 --> 00:12:06,141
"Oh, that I had
wings like a dove,

213
00:12:06,226 --> 00:12:10,646
I would fly away
and be at rest."

214
00:12:10,730 --> 00:12:14,525
At this moment, as the casket
descends into the ground,

215
00:12:14,609 --> 00:12:15,984
we now release a white dove

216
00:12:16,069 --> 00:12:18,362
symbolizing
Mr. Callahan's soul...

217
00:12:18,446 --> 00:12:19,988
passing on to the next world,

218
00:12:20,073 --> 00:12:22,408
to the mystery
of the great beyond.

219
00:12:35,255 --> 00:12:36,922
Yes, I agree,

220
00:12:37,006 --> 00:12:39,049
that is a lot of money
to put down in advance.

221
00:12:39,134 --> 00:12:41,343
But there's a right way and a
wrong way to approach this.

222
00:12:41,428 --> 00:12:43,345
It was his idea to put up
more crosses on the wall

223
00:12:43,430 --> 00:12:45,514
and change the lighting,

224
00:12:45,598 --> 00:12:47,307
make it feel more like a
church or a sacred place,

225
00:12:47,392 --> 00:12:49,476
less like a business
or an office.

226
00:12:49,561 --> 00:12:52,104
Were you thinking
interment or cremation?

227
00:12:52,188 --> 00:12:53,439
I beg your pardon?

228
00:12:53,523 --> 00:12:55,149
He means buried or burned.

229
00:12:55,233 --> 00:12:57,359
Buried. We already
have the plots.

230
00:12:57,444 --> 00:12:59,111
I am so happy for you.

231
00:12:59,195 --> 00:13:01,113
Can I tell you, I am not
fond of cremations.

232
00:13:01,197 --> 00:13:03,574
I just don't like the idea
of someone spending eternity

233
00:13:03,658 --> 00:13:05,826
in something the size
of a motel ice bucket.

234
00:13:05,910 --> 00:13:07,786
I'd just soon drop
you in a ditch

235
00:13:07,871 --> 00:13:08,871
by the side of the road.

236
00:13:08,955 --> 00:13:10,205
Hey.

237
00:13:10,290 --> 00:13:11,540
I want to keep it simple.

238
00:13:11,624 --> 00:13:13,375
Yeah, this is... this is fine.

239
00:13:13,460 --> 00:13:15,586
- I see.
- Yeah.

240
00:13:15,670 --> 00:13:18,005
Now, these composite wood with
cloth we sell mostly to the county

241
00:13:18,089 --> 00:13:21,717
to bury the unclaimed,
the indigent,

242
00:13:21,801 --> 00:13:23,719
and also no
warranty, of course.

243
00:13:23,803 --> 00:13:25,137
Warranty?

244
00:13:25,221 --> 00:13:26,638
Oh, with our better caskets,

245
00:13:26,723 --> 00:13:28,682
we guarantee that your remains

246
00:13:28,766 --> 00:13:31,059
will be untouched by
rainwater, pesky insects,

247
00:13:31,144 --> 00:13:33,896
burrowing animals
searching for food...

248
00:13:33,980 --> 00:13:36,231
Also, now tall
are you, Mr. Eccles?

249
00:13:36,316 --> 00:13:37,316
About 6'2".

250
00:13:37,400 --> 00:13:39,234
Oh, dear.

251
00:13:39,319 --> 00:13:41,737
These economy boxes
are not very large.

252
00:13:41,821 --> 00:13:44,406
We may have to make a leg
adjustment to get a proper fit.

253
00:13:44,491 --> 00:13:46,325
Leg adjustment?

254
00:13:46,409 --> 00:13:48,243
Well, not necessarily break
the legs but definitely

255
00:13:48,328 --> 00:13:50,078
- bend the feet...
- No! No,

256
00:13:50,163 --> 00:13:51,788
I... I won't have it.

257
00:13:51,873 --> 00:13:54,750
Then may I suggest...

258
00:13:54,834 --> 00:13:56,251

262
00:14:05,053 --> 00:14:07,346

he was just a tough
old typical old man.

267
00:14:21,486 --> 00:14:26,198
And he liked to do business
just a handshake,

268
00:14:26,282 --> 00:14:27,491
He would say things like...

269

I'll guaran-damn-tee yah...

270
00:14:29,911 --> 00:14:34,289
He was some kind of exploration
guy with a big oil company

271
00:14:34,374 --> 00:14:37,125
and he made a whole lot
of money back in the 60s.

272
00:14:37,210 --> 00:14:39,336
He was too tight
to spend any of it

273
00:14:39,420 --> 00:14:42,047
but he liked to invest his
money in everything he could.

As a matter of fact, he even
bought a bank here in town.

277
00:14:54,727 --> 00:14:58,146
I believe it was '87,
he bought the bank.

278
00:14:58,231 --> 00:15:01,316
He run that sucker
with a hard fist.

279
00:15:01,401 --> 00:15:03,735
Just, I mean, he was kinda...

280
00:15:03,820 --> 00:15:06,238
abrupt, and the way...

281
00:15:06,322 --> 00:15:07,906
I appreciate it.

282
00:15:07,991 --> 00:15:10,117
The way he done
business and stuff.

283
00:15:10,201 --> 00:15:12,327
Of course, then after he died,
well, then she took over

284
00:15:12,412 --> 00:15:16,999
and she started having
a position that he had

285
00:15:17,083 --> 00:15:19,167
and if it was said
that he was kinda

286
00:15:19,252 --> 00:15:21,670
disliked in the way
he did business,

287
00:15:21,754 --> 00:15:24,172
you'd have to say that
she was literally hated,

288
00:15:24,257 --> 00:15:25,882
'cause that old heifer,

289
00:15:25,967 --> 00:15:28,969
she turned down loans
just for a hobby.

290
00:15:29,053 --> 00:15:34,850
She was just a mean
old hateful bitch.

291
00:15:34,934 --> 00:15:38,520
Hey. There's just no
other way to put it.

292
00:15:38,605 --> 00:15:40,188
She wasn't friendly.

293
00:15:40,273 --> 00:15:42,316
She... she really wasn't,

294
00:15:42,400 --> 00:15:45,777
and she probably... there
are people in town, honey,

295
00:15:45,862 --> 00:15:49,197
that woulda shot her
for five dollars, ya know?

296
00:15:49,282 --> 00:15:51,199
I mean, when you live
in a small town,

297
00:15:51,284 --> 00:15:53,535
you've got to be friendly
and nice to folks.

298
00:15:53,620 --> 00:15:56,330
She would chew your ass
at the drop of a hat.

299
00:15:56,414 --> 00:15:58,415
I mean, she'd rip
you a brand new

300
00:15:58,499 --> 00:16:02,127
three bedroom two bath double
wide asshole. No problem.

301
00:16:02,211 --> 00:16:04,755
I n the fourteenth chapter
of the book of John,

302
00:16:04,839 --> 00:16:07,633
Jesus said, "Let not
your heart be troubled."

303
00:16:07,717 --> 00:16:10,218
Well, I heard that
she hadn't talked

304
00:16:10,303 --> 00:16:12,804
to her sisters in over 20 years

305
00:16:12,889 --> 00:16:14,514
but when the mother died,

306
00:16:14,599 --> 00:16:16,558
she was right in
there fightin' them

307
00:16:16,643 --> 00:16:17,893
over quilts and chairs.

308
00:16:17,977 --> 00:16:20,354
Can you believe that?

309
00:16:20,438 --> 00:16:24,316
And one of the sisters even wanted
to donate land to the church,

310
00:16:24,400 --> 00:16:26,443
but she interfered

311
00:16:26,527 --> 00:16:28,487
because she didn't want
the church to have it.

312
00:16:28,571 --> 00:16:30,572
She didn't like that pastor.

313
00:16:30,657 --> 00:16:34,076
He wore Bermuda shorts
on his day off.

314
00:16:34,160 --> 00:16:35,869
Friends and loved ones...

315
00:16:35,953 --> 00:16:38,038
Everybody in town

316
00:16:38,122 --> 00:16:40,082
knew that Mr. And Mrs. Nugent
weren't exactly friends

317
00:16:40,166 --> 00:16:42,417
with their son Dwayne
Junior and his family.

318
00:16:42,502 --> 00:16:45,045
He was a doctor out in Middleton,
almost never came to visit.

319
00:16:45,129 --> 00:16:47,464
One of his daughters had
actually sued her grandparents

320
00:16:47,548 --> 00:16:49,800
trying to get at
the money in that trust.

321
00:16:49,884 --> 00:16:53,095
That made her so mad she never
spoke to any of them again.

322
00:16:53,179 --> 00:16:55,055
Let us pray.

323
00:16:55,139 --> 00:16:59,518
Marjorie Nugent. She was...

324
00:16:59,602 --> 00:17:03,980
not a very nice lady and
her nose was so high

325
00:17:04,065 --> 00:17:06,233
she'd drown in a rainstorm.

326
00:17:06,317 --> 00:17:09,903
Mrs. Margy, she was
the kind of person

327
00:17:09,987 --> 00:17:12,864
that I believe
she was born old.

328
00:17:12,949 --> 00:17:14,991
She was just born
with this prune face.

329
00:17:15,076 --> 00:17:17,244
That's pretty much the
impression people got from her.

330
00:17:17,328 --> 00:17:20,122
I got a buddy of mine, Louie.

331
00:17:20,206 --> 00:17:23,208
He's a decent fellow
I work for.

332
00:17:23,292 --> 00:17:25,627
Mrs. Nugent took a broom
to his ass one day.

333
00:17:25,712 --> 00:17:27,879
Would you like me to get up
and do the back in there?

334
00:17:27,964 --> 00:17:30,132
Get out.

335
00:17:33,386 --> 00:17:34,553
Oh.

336
00:17:37,890 --> 00:17:39,766
- Beautiful service.
- Thank you.

337
00:17:39,851 --> 00:17:42,894
- I'll see you on Sunday.
- Thank you very much.

338
00:17:45,732 --> 00:17:47,774
He was great with the D-L-O-Ls.

339
00:17:47,859 --> 00:17:50,360
That's what we all called
the "dear little old ladies."

340
00:17:50,445 --> 00:17:52,988
All the widows in town
had crushes on Bernie.

341
00:17:53,072 --> 00:17:55,866
J ust thought
I'd bring you a hankie.

342
00:17:55,950 --> 00:17:57,701
Oh, yeah, old Bernie.

343
00:17:57,785 --> 00:18:00,537
He loved to hug and kiss
on those older women.

344
00:18:00,621 --> 00:18:06,168
At his age now, they were lucky
to get the time of day from him.

345
00:18:15,470 --> 00:18:17,137
Hi.

346
00:18:17,221 --> 00:18:19,848
Hi, Mrs. Nugent, I just...

347
00:18:19,932 --> 00:18:21,725
wanted you to know
I was thinking about you.

348
00:18:21,809 --> 00:18:24,895
- These times can be hard.
- Oh, thank you.

349
00:18:24,979 --> 00:18:26,563
Okay.

350
00:18:26,647 --> 00:18:28,190
I never asked him
to do this and

351
00:18:28,274 --> 00:18:30,317
he wasn't getting
paid to do it,

352
00:18:30,401 --> 00:18:32,110
but he would always stop by
and check on the widows

353
00:18:32,195 --> 00:18:33,862
after he'd done
their husbands' funerals.

354
00:18:33,946 --> 00:18:35,614
He just really
cared about them.

355
00:18:35,698 --> 00:18:37,908
I mean, that guy was
just a sweet guy,

356
00:18:37,992 --> 00:18:39,826
and they just
loved him to death.

357
00:18:49,879 --> 00:18:51,671
Room service.

358
00:18:51,756 --> 00:18:54,007
Hi, I'm just dropping
by again, Mrs. Nugent,

359
00:18:54,091 --> 00:18:55,258
to pay my respects.

360
00:18:55,343 --> 00:18:57,093
I brought you some soaps

361
00:18:57,178 --> 00:18:58,929
and a little bubble bath
to soothe you in the tub,

362
00:18:59,013 --> 00:19:01,556
and some chocolate cupcakes
for a late night snack.

363
00:19:01,641 --> 00:19:03,099
Come in.

364
00:19:03,184 --> 00:19:05,769
That... would be my pleasure.

365
00:19:11,859 --> 00:19:13,568
I n high school I wanted
to be an evangelist

366
00:19:13,653 --> 00:19:16,404
to save the souls
of my fellow students.

367
00:19:16,489 --> 00:19:18,865
A lot of them were starting
to drink and smoke

368
00:19:18,950 --> 00:19:21,117
and ride motorcycles

369
00:19:21,202 --> 00:19:24,037
and have premarital sexual
experiences and all that.

370
00:19:24,121 --> 00:19:25,622
- Oh, yes please!
- Here you go, Bernie.

371
00:19:25,706 --> 00:19:28,750
Thank you, Esmeralda.

372
00:19:28,835 --> 00:19:30,335
When.

373
00:19:30,419 --> 00:19:34,005
Miss Marjorie?

374
00:19:36,592 --> 00:19:38,051
One time I got four teenagers

375
00:19:38,135 --> 00:19:40,720
to re-dedicate
their lives to Jesus,

376
00:19:40,805 --> 00:19:44,558
but eventually I realized I was meant
for other equally important things.

377
00:19:44,642 --> 00:19:46,393
Oh, please, Bernie,

378
00:19:46,477 --> 00:19:49,062
touching all those cold
bloated bodies. Please!

379
00:19:49,146 --> 00:19:52,232
Don't you think you were
meant to do something more?

380
00:19:52,316 --> 00:19:53,984
No, no, no, no, Mrs. Nugent.

381
00:19:54,068 --> 00:19:56,111
It isn't bad at all.

382
00:19:56,195 --> 00:19:58,655
Their souls are already with the
Lord by the time I'm involved.

383
00:19:58,739 --> 00:20:00,448
It's just my way to serve

384
00:20:00,533 --> 00:20:01,867
and show respect
for the lives they led

385
00:20:01,951 --> 00:20:03,118
and comfort all the loved ones

386
00:20:03,202 --> 00:20:04,244
that they leave behind.

387
00:20:04,328 --> 00:20:08,456
Well.

388
00:20:08,541 --> 00:20:11,751
And some day, if I'm lucky,
many many years from now,

389
00:20:11,836 --> 00:20:14,796
I will give you such
a beautiful funeral...

390
00:20:14,881 --> 00:20:17,966
with all the roses
in East Texas.

391
00:20:18,050 --> 00:20:22,470
I know it'll be the event
of the season in Carthage.

392
00:20:22,555 --> 00:20:24,848
You know, I think that
Bernie was the one

393
00:20:24,932 --> 00:20:30,478
that got Marjorie back to
church after her husband died.

394
00:20:30,563 --> 00:20:32,314
Well, I know the Bible says

395
00:20:32,398 --> 00:20:34,858
Jesus turned water into wine,

396
00:20:34,942 --> 00:20:38,278
but it didn't say
liquor store wine.

397
00:20:38,362 --> 00:20:42,073
It had to have been
non-alcoholic wine,

398
00:20:42,158 --> 00:20:44,993
because it didn't
have time to ferment.

399
00:20:45,077 --> 00:20:47,329
If Jesus could
walk on the water,

400
00:20:47,413 --> 00:20:50,749
he could make any kind
of wine he wanted to.

401
00:20:50,833 --> 00:20:52,250
Fermented or not.

402
00:20:52,335 --> 00:20:54,002
Right on the spot.

403
00:20:54,086 --> 00:20:55,170
Morning, ladies.

404
00:20:55,254 --> 00:20:57,547
Sorry to interrupt.

405
00:20:57,632 --> 00:21:00,008
Mrs. Marjorie, it is so good to
have you with us this morning.

406
00:21:00,092 --> 00:21:02,677
I just want to put
a bug in your ear now.

407
00:21:02,762 --> 00:21:05,138
Many of you know we're
hoping to start construction

408
00:21:05,222 --> 00:21:07,140
on our new prayer wing soon.

409
00:21:09,268 --> 00:21:10,852
Well, I'm hoping I can
count on a few of you

410
00:21:10,937 --> 00:21:13,355
to join the fundraising committee.
Okay?

411
00:21:13,439 --> 00:21:15,273
Think about it, now.
God bless you.

00:22:02,488 --> 00:22:04,239
No, I insist.

424
00:22:04,323 --> 00:22:07,409
Don't be silly, Bernie.

425
00:22:07,493 --> 00:22:09,119
Good, I'll see you
Saturday afternoon.

426
00:22:09,203 --> 00:22:10,912
I'm... I'm looking
forward to it, too.

427
00:22:10,997 --> 00:22:15,500
Okay, Mrs. Nugent, bye.

428
00:22:18,796 --> 00:22:22,173
Oh, so sweet.

429
00:22:22,258 --> 00:22:26,011
That was Bernie Tiede, the
assistant funeral director.

430
00:22:26,095 --> 00:22:29,180
He's very sweet
and very nice to me.

431
00:22:29,265 --> 00:22:33,935
Can't think of anyone who's been
that nice to me in 50 years.

432
00:22:34,020 --> 00:22:35,937
Now, you!

433
00:22:36,022 --> 00:22:37,605
You've got two minutes to
explain these accounts to me.

434
00:22:37,690 --> 00:22:39,315
Or three minutes from now

435
00:22:39,400 --> 00:22:41,276
I just might get myself
another stockbroker.

436
00:22:41,360 --> 00:22:43,570
I can explain everything,
Miss Marjorie.

437
00:22:43,654 --> 00:22:45,697
It's a very simple case of them
changing their accounting statements.

438
00:22:45,781 --> 00:22:48,992
They changed their formatting,
it's re-formatted...

439
00:22:49,076 --> 00:22:50,744
in a different format.

440
00:22:50,828 --> 00:22:53,038
Hey, listen.

441
00:22:53,122 --> 00:22:56,041
I couldn't help but hear
the end of that conversation.

442
00:22:56,125 --> 00:22:58,043
I gotta tell you, Bernie,

443
00:22:58,127 --> 00:22:59,711
you have got to be about the
bravest man in this town.

444
00:22:59,795 --> 00:23:02,088
She isn't all that mean
like everyone says.

445
00:23:02,173 --> 00:23:03,631
Now you sure about that?

446
00:23:03,716 --> 00:23:05,467
Well, she doesn't
have anyone, Don.

447
00:23:05,551 --> 00:23:08,470
She's a very lonely person.
She needs someone.

448
00:23:08,554 --> 00:23:10,388
I've asked her to accompany
me this Saturday

449
00:23:10,473 --> 00:23:12,974
to the Van Clyburn Piano
Competition in Fort Worth.

450
00:23:13,059 --> 00:23:15,310
Well, have fun.

451
00:23:15,394 --> 00:23:17,771
Ain't like she's the
richest widow in town.

452
00:23:17,855 --> 00:23:19,731
Hell, maybe she'll
even pay for everything.

453
00:23:19,815 --> 00:23:21,900
- Don!
- Hey...

454
00:23:21,984 --> 00:23:24,652
And if she does offer
to pay for everything,

455
00:23:24,737 --> 00:23:27,447
order up a couple of them
bottles of Dom Perignon.

456
00:23:27,531 --> 00:23:28,990
You get her liquored up,

457
00:23:29,075 --> 00:23:30,075
You might get lucky.

458
00:23:30,159 --> 00:23:32,452
No, Don!

459
00:23:32,536 --> 00:23:35,747
He sincerely believed that...

460
00:23:35,831 --> 00:23:39,125
it was better to give
than to receive.

461
00:23:39,210 --> 00:23:41,294
Well, Bernie had
a problem with money.

462
00:23:41,378 --> 00:23:44,631
He was generous. Some folks
say overly generous.

463
00:23:44,715 --> 00:23:47,217
What he was was a buy-aholic.

464
00:23:47,301 --> 00:23:49,844
And... hell, he'd
walk into a store,

465
00:23:49,929 --> 00:23:52,347
seen something he liked,
he'd buy the store

466
00:23:52,431 --> 00:23:54,516
out of every goddamn
item he wanted

467
00:23:54,600 --> 00:23:56,017
and give the shit away.

468
00:23:56,102 --> 00:23:57,852
And that's crazy.

469
00:23:57,937 --> 00:23:59,687
But that Bernie, he liked
to make people smile.

470
00:23:59,772 --> 00:24:01,356
He wanted friends.

471
00:24:01,440 --> 00:24:03,024
Acceptance, I guess,
is what you call it.

472
00:24:03,109 --> 00:24:05,735
And Bernie could do
just about anything.

473
00:24:05,820 --> 00:24:09,280
I mean, he could hang
wallpaper in people's houses,

474
00:24:09,365 --> 00:24:11,950
and I've never seen
any man do this,

475
00:24:12,034 --> 00:24:14,285
but he could make
curtains for people

476
00:24:14,370 --> 00:24:16,496
and he was the head honcho

477
00:24:16,580 --> 00:24:18,581
for the Chamber of Commerce

478
00:24:18,666 --> 00:24:20,750
Christmas decorating committee.

479
00:24:20,835 --> 00:24:23,586
That's a big thing in
Carthage, too, a big thing.

480
00:24:23,671 --> 00:24:25,421
Bernie was really smart.

481
00:24:25,506 --> 00:24:28,091
He helped people do their
tax returns, you know,

482
00:24:28,175 --> 00:24:30,009
financial counseling...

483
00:24:30,094 --> 00:24:31,928
Anything that you
pay for on the job

484
00:24:32,012 --> 00:24:34,097
that the company,
the oil company

485
00:24:34,181 --> 00:24:36,266
doesn't reimburse you for,
that's a tax deduction.

486
00:24:36,350 --> 00:24:39,394
So, for instance, Toby,
these work coveralls,

487
00:24:39,478 --> 00:24:40,895
did the company
provide you with these?

488
00:24:40,980 --> 00:24:42,605
No, we got to buy our own.

489
00:24:42,690 --> 00:24:45,150
Bingo. That is a tax deduction.

490
00:24:45,234 --> 00:24:47,068
And how about
your lunch buckets

491
00:24:47,153 --> 00:24:48,695
and your steel toe workboots,
they give you those?

492
00:24:48,779 --> 00:24:50,738
- Why, hell no.
- That's what I thought.

493
00:24:50,823 --> 00:24:52,407
You kidding me?

494
00:24:52,491 --> 00:24:54,242
That's tax deduction
number two and three.

495
00:24:54,326 --> 00:24:56,327
Thank you, Sheriff Huckabee.

496
00:24:56,412 --> 00:24:58,705
You're listening to KGAS,
the heartbeat of East Texas.

497
00:24:58,789 --> 00:25:01,207
Now before we get to the
school cafeteria menu,

498
00:25:01,292 --> 00:25:03,877
and the wedding
anniversaries for the week,

499
00:25:03,961 --> 00:25:07,380
here's Bernie Tiede
from Leggett Funeral Home.

500
00:25:07,464 --> 00:25:09,465
Thank you, Jerry.

501
00:25:09,550 --> 00:25:11,301
As some of you
are already aware,

502
00:25:11,385 --> 00:25:13,261
Mr. Harvey Gunnolds left
this world all too soon

503
00:25:13,345 --> 00:25:15,889
this past Wednesday after
a brief hospital stay.

504
00:25:15,973 --> 00:25:18,057
I used to love having
him on the air.

505
00:25:18,142 --> 00:25:22,395
I mean, every Friday people would
tune in just to hear Bernie.

506
00:25:22,479 --> 00:25:24,647
And when he did the obituaries,

507
00:25:24,732 --> 00:25:28,151
it wasn't like a so-and-so was
survived by so-and-so kind of thing.

508
00:25:28,235 --> 00:25:30,320
It was... let's see
if I can remember...

509
00:25:30,404 --> 00:25:33,698
Left in sorrow to mourn the passing
of the beloved Mr. Gunnolds

510
00:25:33,782 --> 00:25:36,242
are Mima Gunnolds,
his mother, Georgia...

511
00:25:36,327 --> 00:25:39,996
And the way he would make
them "look good" in death,

512
00:25:40,080 --> 00:25:42,165
well, he'd make
them sound good, too.

513
00:25:42,249 --> 00:25:44,751
Like Gunnolds was a drunk,

514
00:25:44,835 --> 00:25:46,961
always startin' shit
wherever he went.

515
00:25:47,046 --> 00:25:49,797
He finally got himself
killed in a pool hall.

516
00:25:49,882 --> 00:25:52,300
Now how do you say something
nice about somebody like that?

517
00:25:52,384 --> 00:25:55,637
Well, to Bernie,
it was, "He was known..."

518
00:25:55,721 --> 00:25:57,555
for his social
engagements and his...

519
00:25:57,640 --> 00:25:59,140
conversational abilities...

520
00:25:59,225 --> 00:26:02,268
A kid would wrap
his car around a tree

521
00:26:02,353 --> 00:26:04,103
and with Bernie it was...

522
00:26:04,188 --> 00:26:06,814
and yet, death slipped
up on young Mr. Shotwell,

523
00:26:06,899 --> 00:26:08,816
as gentle as a fallen mist.

524
00:26:15,449 --> 00:26:17,575
What happened?

525
00:26:28,545 --> 00:26:31,339
I regret to inform you

526
00:26:31,423 --> 00:26:36,010
that four of your classmates
have just been killed.

527
00:26:36,095 --> 00:26:37,720
Now this is gonna happen to you

528
00:26:37,805 --> 00:26:41,266
if you drink and drive.

529
00:26:41,350 --> 00:26:44,769
Is this what you want
to happen to you?

530
00:26:44,853 --> 00:26:47,855
It didn't make no
difference what it was

531
00:26:47,940 --> 00:26:50,525
or who ask it, if it was
good for the community,

532
00:26:50,609 --> 00:26:52,527
Bernie'd give it all he had.

533
00:26:52,611 --> 00:26:54,737
All the time.

534
00:26:54,822 --> 00:26:57,198
He was very serious about
his commitment to Carthage.

535
00:26:57,283 --> 00:26:59,200
Life is so beautiful,

536
00:26:59,285 --> 00:27:01,035
every moment a miracle,

537
00:27:01,120 --> 00:27:03,037
and yet in a blink it's gone.

538
00:27:03,122 --> 00:27:05,832
Too young.

539
00:27:05,916 --> 00:27:08,167
Too young!

540
00:27:08,252 --> 00:27:12,005
Oh, he really had a way of
bringing the community together.

541
00:27:12,089 --> 00:27:14,257
Not just at the funerals
and at the church,

542
00:27:14,341 --> 00:27:18,261
he organized
a "Beautify Carthage" campaign,

543
00:27:18,345 --> 00:27:21,389
and he put on the very first
East Texas art festival

544
00:27:21,473 --> 00:27:24,309
and invited artists from
all around the region

545
00:27:24,393 --> 00:27:26,644
to display their works.

546
00:27:40,784 --> 00:27:42,660
Are these all...?

547
00:27:42,745 --> 00:27:44,037
I'm sorry to stop you, are
these all done with that...

548
00:27:44,121 --> 00:27:45,955
the what's that called?

549
00:27:46,040 --> 00:27:47,248
It's all chain saw.

550
00:27:47,333 --> 00:27:49,917
How do you do that?

551
00:27:50,002 --> 00:27:52,295
I wake up in the morning
with an idea

552
00:27:52,379 --> 00:27:54,589
and cut away everything
that ain't that idea.

553
00:27:54,673 --> 00:27:56,132
Can I talk to you at some time?

554
00:27:56,216 --> 00:27:58,009
- Do you have a card?
- Yeah.

555
00:27:58,093 --> 00:27:59,635
Because I have an idea I
would love to commission.

556
00:27:59,720 --> 00:28:01,471
I don't know if you
work that way, but...

557
00:28:01,555 --> 00:28:03,598
Look at that card, he put
it on a piece of wood.

558
00:28:03,682 --> 00:28:05,558
- I'm gonna call you.
- Alright.

559
00:28:05,642 --> 00:28:07,602
- You're a gem.
- Thank you.

560
00:28:07,686 --> 00:28:08,895
Thank you. Okay.

561
00:28:08,979 --> 00:28:10,480
- See you later.
- Bye.

562
00:28:10,564 --> 00:28:12,273
Oh, yeah, Bernie
took her everywhere.

563
00:28:12,358 --> 00:28:17,028
He took her to the
Van Clyburn Competition,

564
00:28:17,112 --> 00:28:18,946
took her up to
the junior college

565
00:28:19,031 --> 00:28:21,324
to see some of
the rehearsals of shows

566
00:28:21,408 --> 00:28:22,867
that he was working on.

567
00:28:22,951 --> 00:28:25,119
Oh, yeah, he always
had Mrs. Nugent.

He had come to a production
in a local theater,

574
00:28:52,231 --> 00:28:53,815
and he thought
it could be better

575
00:28:53,899 --> 00:28:56,317
so he volunteered to help out

576
00:28:56,402 --> 00:29:00,571
and pretty soon he was the
musical director for one show,

577
00:29:00,656 --> 00:29:02,407
a director in another one,

578
00:29:02,491 --> 00:29:05,076
and an actor in
almost all of them.

579
00:29:05,160 --> 00:29:07,245
He just had a real

585
00:29:36,442 --> 00:29:38,860
I saw them at
a restaurant one time.

586
00:29:38,944 --> 00:29:41,571
They was out to lunch together, and he
reached over and kissed her on the cheek.

587
00:29:41,655 --> 00:29:44,365
But it wasn't a kiss like you
give your momma or your grandma.

588
00:29:44,450 --> 00:29:47,118
It was more of a romantic,
sexual kiss to me, you know?

589
00:29:47,202 --> 00:29:51,164
He had that graoning sound in the back of his voice.
It was kinda strange.

590
00:29:51,248 --> 00:29:53,166
It just didn't
look right to me.

591
00:29:53,250 --> 00:29:56,627
The word was it wasn't a
week after the funeral.

592
00:29:56,712 --> 00:30:02,383
Mrs. Nugent gave Bernie
Mr. Nugent's $ 12,000 Rolex watch.

593
00:30:02,468 --> 00:30:06,304
Hell, for that kinda money,
I bet he did kiss her.

594
00:30:06,388 --> 00:30:09,515
I n a small town,
people will always

595
00:30:09,600 --> 00:30:11,976
suspect the worst of someone.

596
00:30:12,060 --> 00:30:14,854
But they'll also
suspect the best.

597
00:30:14,938 --> 00:30:18,649
So we just thought
they were companions.

598
00:30:18,734 --> 00:30:20,735
Look, it was widely assumed

599
00:30:20,819 --> 00:30:22,236
that Mrs. Nugent
was paying Bernie

600
00:30:22,321 --> 00:30:25,698
to "accompany her" places.

601
00:30:25,782 --> 00:30:27,492
Oh, I'd estimate they spent

602
00:30:27,576 --> 00:30:29,285
nearly a hundred thousand
a year on vacations.

603
00:30:29,369 --> 00:30:32,163
They went to Russia,
Acapulco, New York City.

604
00:30:32,247 --> 00:30:34,457
They went to Europe
on the Queen Mary,

605
00:30:34,541 --> 00:30:37,084
always first class,
always some spa,

606
00:30:37,169 --> 00:30:39,754
some resort,
some... sittin' in some

607
00:30:39,838 --> 00:30:43,925
hot spring mineral
peeling water bath.

608
00:30:59,191 --> 00:31:01,984
Margy looked so much better.

609
00:31:02,069 --> 00:31:05,780
You see pictures of her on
these trips with Bernie.

610
00:31:05,864 --> 00:31:09,617
She had nice hair,
she looked good,

611
00:31:09,701 --> 00:31:11,786
she seemed happy,

612
00:31:11,870 --> 00:31:17,542
and she had Bernie
to thank for that.

613
00:31:17,626 --> 00:31:22,797
Marjorie realized she had
everything in front of her.

614
00:31:22,881 --> 00:31:26,133
She could do anything
she wanted in her life,

615
00:31:26,218 --> 00:31:31,556
and she wanted to travel.

616
00:31:34,851 --> 00:31:37,562
Money was no object

617
00:31:37,646 --> 00:31:41,816
but unfortunately, she
had no friends or family

618
00:31:41,900 --> 00:31:45,570
that she wanted to travel with.

619
00:31:45,654 --> 00:31:49,490
Until she met Bernie.

620
00:31:49,575 --> 00:31:52,326
Hey, I'll tell you
one thing for sure.

621
00:31:52,411 --> 00:31:54,078
On that trip to Belize,

622
00:31:54,162 --> 00:31:56,080
they stayed in the same room.

623
00:31:56,164 --> 00:31:57,665
And you know damn right well

624
00:31:57,749 --> 00:32:00,418
they saw each other
in their underwear.

625
00:32:00,502 --> 00:32:02,628
And I know for sure

626
00:32:02,713 --> 00:32:05,256
that when she
went to Shreveport,

627
00:32:05,340 --> 00:32:09,677
to get some sexy lingerie
at Doris' lingerie shop,

628
00:32:09,761 --> 00:32:12,597
she got herself
a see through nightgown

629
00:32:12,681 --> 00:32:16,142
that showed her breasts.

630
00:32:16,226 --> 00:32:18,436
I mean, give me a break.

631
00:32:18,520 --> 00:32:19,895
What is a woman her age

632
00:32:19,980 --> 00:32:21,397
wanting to do
showing her boobs?

633
00:32:21,481 --> 00:32:23,649
Seriously.

634
00:32:23,734 --> 00:32:25,192
Disgusting.

635
00:32:30,699 --> 00:32:33,534
Bernie was a little effeminate.

636
00:32:33,619 --> 00:32:36,037
I mean, an unmarried
man in his late 30s,

637
00:32:36,121 --> 00:32:41,834
going to all the musicals with
a bunch of old blue-hairs...

638
00:32:41,918 --> 00:32:45,463
You know, I heard
that he was gay,

639
00:32:45,547 --> 00:32:48,799
but he was such
a good Christian man,

640
00:32:48,884 --> 00:32:53,220
everybody thought, you
know, how could that be?

641
00:32:53,305 --> 00:32:55,723
That dog don't hunt. Nah.

642
00:32:55,807 --> 00:32:57,266
There was always talk
about Bernie being

643
00:32:57,351 --> 00:32:59,143
a little light
in the loafers but...

644
00:32:59,227 --> 00:33:01,479
I always thought
he was celibate.

645
00:33:01,563 --> 00:33:03,481
He was a nice-looking man and there
were lots of girls in the community

646
00:33:03,565 --> 00:33:05,775
who would've loved to
have a date with him,

647
00:33:05,859 --> 00:33:07,818
but he never seemed to show
much interest in that.

648
00:33:07,903 --> 00:33:10,571
He stayed busy all the
time and was working.

649
00:33:10,656 --> 00:33:12,657
He had a tendency to hold on

650
00:33:12,741 --> 00:33:17,078
to another man's hands, touched
too long after shaking it,

651
00:33:17,162 --> 00:33:19,830
and he had a subscription
to men's fitness magazine.

652
00:33:19,915 --> 00:33:21,582
Now if you've ever seen Bernie
Tedie, you know darn well

653
00:33:21,667 --> 00:33:24,251
it wasn't for the workout tips.

654
00:33:24,336 --> 00:33:26,295
And when you
see him around town,

655
00:33:26,380 --> 00:33:28,589
if he wasn't at the church or
at work in the funeral home,

656
00:33:28,674 --> 00:33:32,259
he would always be where we these
doggone hemmed, starched shorts.

657
00:33:32,344 --> 00:33:35,096
With his belt line...
above the navel.

658
00:33:35,180 --> 00:33:40,142
And the kicker is
he always wore sandals.

659
00:33:40,227 --> 00:33:42,395
Our Lord and Savior
always wore sandals

660
00:33:42,479 --> 00:33:44,522
and he never married.

661
00:33:44,606 --> 00:33:47,274
And he had 12 disciples

662
00:33:47,359 --> 00:33:51,404
and I don't think
any of them ever married.

663
00:33:51,488 --> 00:33:55,324
And the apostle Paul,
he was a lifelong bachelor.

664
00:33:55,409 --> 00:33:57,952
And you never heard anybody
in the New Testament

665
00:33:58,036 --> 00:34:01,622
say that they was
a bunch of queers.

666
00:34:01,707 --> 00:34:04,500
No.

667
00:34:04,584 --> 00:34:08,462
No, he had homosexual relations.
I know that for a fact.

668
00:34:08,547 --> 00:34:10,381
This ain't San Francisco,

669
00:34:10,465 --> 00:34:14,301
so around here we got a
lot of "closet homosexuals."

670
00:34:14,386 --> 00:34:17,179
And I know of at least two men
that he had relationships with

671
00:34:17,264 --> 00:34:19,515
that were heterosexual.

672
00:34:19,599 --> 00:34:21,726
Were.

673
00:34:21,810 --> 00:34:25,438
Now one of the main things
and why I have this job,

674
00:34:25,522 --> 00:34:27,773
and why I feel like
I'm good at it is,

675
00:34:27,858 --> 00:34:29,859
you see, I'm
naturally suspicious.

676
00:34:29,943 --> 00:34:34,488
Sometimes I find myself waking
up in the middle of the night.

677
00:34:34,573 --> 00:34:36,282
I'll be staring off

678
00:34:36,366 --> 00:34:38,743
out through the backyard
into the woods and I...

679
00:34:38,827 --> 00:34:40,411
I'll be thinking about
all the crime and mayhem

680
00:34:40,495 --> 00:34:42,788
happening out there,

681
00:34:42,873 --> 00:34:46,917
and that's... that's when I start
putting it together in my mind.

682
00:34:47,002 --> 00:34:48,836
I stop the criminal.

683
00:34:48,920 --> 00:34:51,255
I wait, I watch,

684
00:34:51,339 --> 00:34:53,674
and I listen.

685
00:34:53,759 --> 00:34:56,093
When the time's just right...

686
00:34:56,178 --> 00:34:59,472
That's when I pounce.

687
00:34:59,556 --> 00:35:01,348
Ain't nothing I enjoy more

688
00:35:01,433 --> 00:35:03,225
than the sound of a criminal
that's just wriggling

689
00:35:03,310 --> 00:35:05,102
on the end of my
hook, hey, you know,

690
00:35:05,187 --> 00:35:07,980
and folks like to see
the D.A. At work.

691
00:35:08,064 --> 00:35:10,399
But no county
ain't gonna hire a D.A.

692
00:35:10,484 --> 00:35:14,153
Who doesn't know that
this is a full time job.

693
00:35:14,237 --> 00:35:16,697
All the time.

694
00:35:16,782 --> 00:35:20,743
One thing Danny
Bucks is good at

695
00:35:20,827 --> 00:35:22,828
is getting Danny
Buck re-elected.

696
00:35:22,913 --> 00:35:26,040
And he gets his little
photo ops in the paper,

697
00:35:26,124 --> 00:35:28,959
busting up the copper rings
or the hub-cap rings,

698
00:35:29,044 --> 00:35:31,921
or the meth labs,
but in slow times,

699
00:35:32,005 --> 00:35:34,673
Danny Buck be out
digging up some shit.

700
00:35:34,758 --> 00:35:36,258
Let me show y'all something.

701
00:35:36,343 --> 00:35:39,094
You're gonna love this.

702
00:35:39,179 --> 00:35:43,516
I call this
my wheel of misfortune.

703
00:35:43,600 --> 00:35:46,018
Now what I've done is,
I've assigned numbers

704
00:35:46,102 --> 00:35:48,854
to all the suspected
drug dealers around here.

705
00:35:48,939 --> 00:35:56,570
If your number comes up,

706
00:35:56,655 --> 00:36:00,991
number eight, Danny Buck's
come to get you first.

707
00:36:01,076 --> 00:36:04,662
And not one of you dope
pushers is gonna get away.

708
00:36:04,746 --> 00:36:07,039
Not one.

709
00:36:07,123 --> 00:36:09,124
The best trick I ever pulled

710
00:36:09,209 --> 00:36:11,710
is the time I arrested
five deadbeat dads

711
00:36:11,795 --> 00:36:14,255
all at the same time.

712
00:36:14,339 --> 00:36:16,799
You see, I was having
trouble finding them.

713
00:36:16,883 --> 00:36:19,718
Actually, what I did is I used the
annual hands on a hardbody contest

714
00:36:19,803 --> 00:36:22,596
the one at the Dodge
dealership on 79?

715
00:36:22,681 --> 00:36:24,348
People were standing around
for days and days

716
00:36:24,432 --> 00:36:26,600
with their hands
on the pick up truck,

717
00:36:26,685 --> 00:36:28,394
and the last one with their
hand on the truck wins it.

718
00:36:28,478 --> 00:36:31,021
What I did, is I got a rig

719
00:36:31,106 --> 00:36:34,441
where they invited these five dads
who aren't paying child support.

720
00:36:34,526 --> 00:36:36,068
I figured the idea
of a new truck

721
00:36:36,152 --> 00:36:37,987
might get 'em to come
out of hiding.

722
00:36:38,071 --> 00:36:42,658
Did it work?

723
00:36:42,742 --> 00:36:44,285
You bet your butt it did.

724
00:36:51,710 --> 00:36:53,752
Hey, get him!

725
00:37:01,636 --> 00:37:03,554
I think we'd like to move
some out of financials

726
00:37:03,638 --> 00:37:06,307
and into technologies,
maybe a little more Apple.

727
00:37:06,391 --> 00:37:09,435
And we'd like to get a thousand
shares of Tommy Hilfiger.

728
00:37:09,519 --> 00:37:11,979
I got a sneak-a-peek
at the new line for the...

729
00:37:12,063 --> 00:37:14,940
What is this "we'd
like to" part, Bernie?

730
00:37:15,025 --> 00:37:16,650
What do you know about
stocks and investing?

731
00:37:16,735 --> 00:37:19,153
You bury people.

732
00:37:19,237 --> 00:37:22,656
You're a mortician. You're
not an investment advisor.

733
00:37:22,741 --> 00:37:24,992
No one uses the word
"mortician" anymore, Lloyd.

734
00:37:25,076 --> 00:37:26,827
It's "funeral director."

735
00:37:26,912 --> 00:37:29,288
Or in your case
assistant funeral director.

736
00:37:29,372 --> 00:37:32,958
We just thought you were being a little
conservative with Marjorie's account.

737
00:37:34,044 --> 00:37:36,003
Hello? Lloyd?

738
00:37:36,087 --> 00:37:39,173
He hung up.

739
00:37:39,257 --> 00:37:42,217
No.

740
00:37:43,720 --> 00:37:45,763
Something crawled up his butt.

741
00:37:48,183 --> 00:37:50,309
This is Lloyd.

742
00:37:50,393 --> 00:37:54,897
Lloyd! Don't you ever, ever speak
to Bernie like that again,

743
00:37:54,981 --> 00:37:56,649
or I'll be moving my account.

744
00:37:56,733 --> 00:37:58,192
I'm sorry, I got a little
frustrated and I...

745
00:37:58,276 --> 00:38:00,486
Don't be sorry,
just don't do it.

746
00:38:03,657 --> 00:38:05,616
Well.

747
00:38:16,711 --> 00:38:19,004
I have a son and
four grandchildren

748
00:38:19,089 --> 00:38:21,173
some of whom have
threatened to sue me

749
00:38:21,257 --> 00:38:23,342
and have actually sued me

750
00:38:23,426 --> 00:38:26,345
and none of them visit or
appear to care about me.

751
00:38:26,429 --> 00:38:28,555
Also my son is a physician

752
00:38:28,640 --> 00:38:31,350
and amply provides
for his family.

753
00:38:38,900 --> 00:38:41,151
For the reasons stated,

754
00:38:41,236 --> 00:38:46,365
I am not including them as
beneficiaries under my will.

755
00:38:46,449 --> 00:38:50,327
I give, devise and
bequeath my entire estate,

756
00:38:50,412 --> 00:38:53,163
real, personal and mixed,

757
00:38:53,248 --> 00:38:58,335
onto Bernhardt Tiede the
Second, outright and simple.

758
00:39:15,061 --> 00:39:16,478
To life.

759
00:39:18,481 --> 00:39:20,566
Oh, thank you, Crystal.

760
00:39:20,650 --> 00:39:21,900
Here you go.

761
00:39:25,822 --> 00:39:26,697
Cheers.

762
00:39:31,286 --> 00:39:35,122
Give pills, give
me my pills, Bernie.

763
00:39:35,206 --> 00:39:37,124
Pardon me?

764
00:39:37,208 --> 00:39:40,419
You know I have to take
my pills before eating.

765
00:39:40,503 --> 00:39:42,254
You were supposed
to bring them,

766
00:39:42,338 --> 00:39:44,590
so where are they?
Give them to me.

767
00:39:44,674 --> 00:39:47,926
I'm sorry, Marjorie, there must have
been a little misunderstanding.

768
00:39:48,011 --> 00:39:49,803
I'd be happy to go to
your room and get them.

769
00:39:49,888 --> 00:39:52,723
Excellent!

770
00:39:52,807 --> 00:39:55,184
Okay.

771
00:39:59,522 --> 00:40:02,524
She put his name
on all her bank accounts,

772
00:40:02,609 --> 00:40:04,568
and then she gave him
a power of attorney,

773
00:40:04,652 --> 00:40:09,239
which meant he could spend her
money any way he wanted to.

774
00:40:09,324 --> 00:40:11,325
And he did.

775
00:40:38,603 --> 00:40:40,479
Been on the line for a while.

776
00:40:40,563 --> 00:40:43,607
Won't let go.

777
00:40:43,691 --> 00:40:46,026
Hello, Marjorie, I...

778
00:40:46,111 --> 00:40:48,195
I'm sorry, I'm sorry,
I thought I told you

779
00:40:48,279 --> 00:40:50,656
what I was doing this morning.

780
00:40:50,740 --> 00:40:52,199
Well, I don't have my phone on

781
00:40:52,283 --> 00:40:55,035
while I am up there.
You know that.

782
00:40:55,120 --> 00:40:56,829
I'm sure we won't
be late for lunch,

783
00:40:56,913 --> 00:40:59,164
but I'm on my way.

784
00:40:59,249 --> 00:41:02,084
Okay. Bye-bye.

785
00:41:02,168 --> 00:41:04,461
- This is my life.
- Okay.

786
00:41:05,797 --> 00:41:08,006
Somewhere along the way,

787
00:41:08,091 --> 00:41:10,717
Mrs. Nugent convinced Bernie to go
to part time at the funeral home

788
00:41:10,802 --> 00:41:12,386
and go working
full-time for her.

789
00:41:12,470 --> 00:41:14,388
She got rid
of all the usual help

790
00:41:14,472 --> 00:41:16,181
and it was just Bernie.

791
00:41:16,266 --> 00:41:18,267
He was her business
manager, travel companion,

792
00:41:18,351 --> 00:41:19,268
her servant.

793
00:41:35,243 --> 00:41:38,245
Bernie! You should've
been here hours ago!

794
00:41:38,329 --> 00:41:41,331
But we still have time. We'll
be there on time, Marjorie.

795
00:41:41,416 --> 00:41:43,083
I need you to go by the
cleaners and pick up my dress.

796
00:41:43,168 --> 00:41:45,252
Now I've got
to wear something else.

797
00:41:45,336 --> 00:41:48,338
You fooling around with those
damn planes all the time, Bernie.

798
00:41:48,423 --> 00:41:50,174
I told you I was going to be...

799
00:41:50,258 --> 00:41:52,009
Okay, you told me. What
good does that do me?

800
00:41:52,093 --> 00:41:54,094
Things change
and I needed you here.

801
00:41:54,179 --> 00:41:57,264
And because you never leave your
cell phone on all the time,

802
00:41:57,348 --> 00:41:59,391
this is a pager.

803
00:41:59,475 --> 00:42:01,727
You're going to wear it on your
person at all times, correct?

804
00:42:01,811 --> 00:42:03,604
- Correct.
- Go get me a dress.

805
00:42:03,688 --> 00:42:04,980
- Okay.
- Hurry. Hurry.

806
00:42:05,064 --> 00:42:06,440
Hurry, hurry. Hurry, hurry.

807
00:42:20,538 --> 00:42:24,625
Marjorie, please.

808
00:42:24,709 --> 00:42:27,002
I can understand chewing
each bite of some food

809
00:42:27,086 --> 00:42:29,838
25 times like
chicken fried steak,

810
00:42:29,923 --> 00:42:31,548
but I don't think
you have to chew

811
00:42:31,633 --> 00:42:34,801
your refried beans
that many times.

812
00:42:34,886 --> 00:42:37,179
It doesn't really make sense.

813
00:42:37,263 --> 00:42:40,098
It's unnecessary additional
work for your jaws.

814
00:42:40,183 --> 00:42:42,059
Think of your poor TMJ muscle.

815
00:42:42,143 --> 00:42:43,310
It can't be good for it.

816
00:42:46,147 --> 00:42:49,149
It's inefficient.
Think about it.

817
00:42:49,234 --> 00:42:52,361
You this drives me crazy.
Please stop.

818
00:42:52,445 --> 00:42:54,321
This is like nails
on a chalkboard.

819
00:42:54,405 --> 00:42:57,157
Okay, go ahead, chew like
that, chew like that all day.

820
00:42:59,744 --> 00:43:01,787
Well, Bernie was so nice,

821
00:43:01,871 --> 00:43:05,290
so accommodating,

822
00:43:05,375 --> 00:43:12,005
so willing to keep from hurting
other people's feelings,

823
00:43:12,090 --> 00:43:16,093
he just couldn't tell
anybody to piss off.

824
00:43:27,939 --> 00:43:30,774
Bernie, I'm still waiting.

825
00:44:25,621 --> 00:44:28,623
Would you rather hear
"Drama in Real Life?"

826
00:44:28,708 --> 00:44:30,667
"Tips for Better
Summer Tomatoes" or...

827
00:44:30,752 --> 00:44:32,919
Tips for Better
Summer Tomatoes.

828
00:44:33,004 --> 00:44:34,713
"The best summer tomatoes..."

829
00:44:34,797 --> 00:44:36,923
She was demanding,

830
00:44:37,008 --> 00:44:39,259
condescending,

831
00:44:39,344 --> 00:44:41,303
even conniving.

832
00:44:41,387 --> 00:44:46,016
And she had intentionally put
him in a dependent position.

833
00:44:46,100 --> 00:44:48,977
She was jealous of his time,

834
00:44:49,062 --> 00:44:52,898
envious of his
community status,

835
00:44:52,982 --> 00:44:55,984
and... overly generous to him.

836
00:44:56,069 --> 00:44:59,029
So as to make him stick around.

837
00:44:59,113 --> 00:45:02,574
So you just show
people around the boat?

838
00:45:02,658 --> 00:45:03,950
All around the boat?

839
00:45:04,035 --> 00:45:05,619
Yeah, I give tours.

840
00:45:05,703 --> 00:45:07,454
And I bartend
in the captain's cabin.

841
00:45:07,538 --> 00:45:09,289
- Oh, you have a lot of jobs.
- Yeah, yeah, yeah.

842
00:45:09,374 --> 00:45:10,832
You're a jack of all trades.

843
00:45:10,917 --> 00:45:12,626
It's good though.
The money's good.

844
00:45:12,710 --> 00:45:14,461
Not bad. And you get to
see the world, right?

845
00:45:14,545 --> 00:45:16,380
- Yeah, we do.
- That's cool.

846
00:45:16,464 --> 00:45:17,756
- Yeah.
- Marjorie?

847
00:45:17,840 --> 00:45:19,299
This is Kevin who works here.

848
00:45:19,384 --> 00:45:20,967
Hello, Mrs. Nugent.

849
00:45:21,052 --> 00:45:22,969
Bernie, we're scheduled
to be there now.

850
00:45:23,054 --> 00:45:25,639
- I'm ready. Okay.
- Be still.

851
00:45:25,723 --> 00:45:27,349
Okay. Do you want
me to get this?

852
00:45:27,433 --> 00:45:28,683
- Stop asking questions.
- Okay, you got it.

853
00:45:28,768 --> 00:45:30,227
- Thank you.
- Good, good.

854
00:45:30,311 --> 00:45:32,187
- Let's go.
- Thank you.

855
00:45:32,271 --> 00:45:33,897
- Let's go, let's go, let's go.
- Nice talking to you.

856
00:45:33,981 --> 00:45:35,981
- See you, Bernie.
- Yeah. Okay, bye-bye.

857
00:45:38,820 --> 00:45:40,320
Okay, you want to look
right down the lens

858
00:45:40,405 --> 00:45:41,988
and say "Egypt."

859
00:45:42,073 --> 00:45:43,448
Egypt.

860
00:45:46,411 --> 00:45:48,078
Okay.

861
00:45:58,423 --> 00:46:02,050
Okay, everybody, let's work on the
arrival of the Wells Fargo Wagon.

862
00:46:02,135 --> 00:46:03,969
This wagon has all of
our instruments on it

863
00:46:04,053 --> 00:46:05,387
so we're very
excited about it...

864
00:46:05,471 --> 00:46:07,139
U h-oh, hold on.

865
00:46:07,223 --> 00:46:09,850
Grrr. So I want to have
a pulse on each beat,

866
00:46:09,934 --> 00:46:12,060
and I want to have everybody's
eyeline on the horizon

867
00:46:12,145 --> 00:46:13,687
going like this and I want
some people to do this

868
00:46:13,771 --> 00:46:15,313
because everyone's
doing this right now.

869
00:46:15,398 --> 00:46:16,815
It's looking a little
too uniform, okay?

870
00:46:16,899 --> 00:46:20,026
One, two, three, four and oh!

871
00:46:20,111 --> 00:46:23,155
And ho! That's it. Okay.

872
00:46:23,239 --> 00:46:24,739
Very good, relax the pose.

873
00:46:24,824 --> 00:46:27,117
This is only going
to take a second.

874
00:46:27,201 --> 00:46:30,871
If I don't call her, she
will give me living hell.

875
00:46:30,955 --> 00:46:34,249
Hello, Marjorie, how are you?

876
00:46:34,333 --> 00:46:37,085
Can I bring you anything?

877
00:46:37,170 --> 00:46:38,628
Can it wait till
right after rehearsal?

878
00:46:38,713 --> 00:46:40,380
We got another 40...

879
00:46:40,465 --> 00:46:42,382
Okay, right away.
I'll be there.

880
00:46:42,467 --> 00:46:44,342
Bye-bye.

881
00:46:44,427 --> 00:46:46,136
Can you clean this up?

882
00:46:46,220 --> 00:46:47,471
I have to go right away.
Thank you.

883
00:46:58,357 --> 00:46:59,900
How's it going, Carl?

884
00:46:59,984 --> 00:47:01,735
Old Mrs. Nugent just fired me.

885
00:47:01,819 --> 00:47:04,529
What happened?

886
00:47:04,614 --> 00:47:07,073
She said I stole a lawn mower.

887
00:47:07,158 --> 00:47:09,576
Snuck it out to my
place in Niggertown.

888
00:47:09,660 --> 00:47:11,745
What?

889
00:47:11,829 --> 00:47:13,163
Why does she think that?

890
00:47:13,247 --> 00:47:15,874
Oh, she saw me leave with it,

891
00:47:15,958 --> 00:47:18,210
I was taking it
to get it fixed.

892
00:47:18,294 --> 00:47:20,128
Let me talk to her, okay Carl?

893
00:47:20,213 --> 00:47:21,838
Don't go getting
a new job just yet.

894
00:47:21,923 --> 00:47:26,676
Okay. But I ain't
going back up there.

895
00:47:26,761 --> 00:47:28,261
Not today anyway.

896
00:47:28,346 --> 00:47:30,430
I don't blame you.

897
00:47:30,515 --> 00:47:33,433
I will get to the bottom of it
and I will call you back. Okay?

898
00:47:33,518 --> 00:47:34,935
So sorry about this.

899
00:47:35,019 --> 00:47:36,186
Alright.

900
00:47:40,691 --> 00:47:45,028
Oh, you just pop up whenever
it's convenient for you!

901
00:47:45,112 --> 00:47:47,906
J ust when you think
it's fine for you,

902
00:47:47,990 --> 00:47:50,283
you come! Well, fine
fine, fine, fine!

903
00:47:50,368 --> 00:47:52,035
What happened with Carl?

904
00:47:52,119 --> 00:47:54,287
I got rid of him! I
caught him red handed!

905
00:47:54,372 --> 00:47:56,790
God knows what else he's been
stealing from me, Bernie!

906
00:47:56,874 --> 00:47:58,708
He says he was
gonna get it fixed.

907
00:47:58,793 --> 00:48:00,502
- That's what he says.
- Well, I don't think Carl...

908
00:48:00,586 --> 00:48:03,755
And those flowers
he's supposedly planted,

909
00:48:03,839 --> 00:48:05,882
they were supposed
to bloom two weeks ago.

910
00:48:05,967 --> 00:48:08,927
He's a lazy good fer nothin'.
The man's never done anything!

911
00:48:09,011 --> 00:48:11,888
I don't think that he would
ever do anything like...

912
00:48:11,973 --> 00:48:14,307
Why are you stickin'
up for his kind?

913
00:48:14,392 --> 00:48:17,602
Marjorie, you're making it
very hard to be your friend.

914
00:48:17,687 --> 00:48:19,104
I'm gonna come back
some other time.

915
00:48:19,188 --> 00:48:21,273
Oh, just go ahead, desert me.

916
00:48:21,357 --> 00:48:23,275
J ust like everybody else, go ahead,
go ahead, go ahead, go ahead.

917
00:48:23,359 --> 00:48:25,235
Go, go, go! You hate me!

918
00:48:25,319 --> 00:48:27,821
Marjorie, I am not
going to take part

919
00:48:27,905 --> 00:48:30,073
- in this argument.
- You know.

920
00:48:30,157 --> 00:48:32,450
- I know you hate me!
- No!

921
00:48:32,535 --> 00:48:34,327
Like everybody else!

922
00:48:45,590 --> 00:48:46,590
Oh.

923
00:48:53,431 --> 00:48:56,641
Basically, it was like
Bernie became her property.

924
00:48:56,726 --> 00:49:01,229
You'll never leave me. Never.

925
00:49:01,314 --> 00:49:04,482
He was her sole source
of entertainment,

926
00:49:04,567 --> 00:49:06,693
had to do everything for her.

927
00:49:06,777 --> 00:49:09,529
I truly believe the guy felt
he was smothered, choked,

928
00:49:09,614 --> 00:49:11,239
unable to get his wind.

929
00:49:11,324 --> 00:49:15,368
I don't know how the guy stood it.
Well.

930
00:49:15,453 --> 00:49:17,370
Come on, just pull
the damn trigger.

931
00:49:17,455 --> 00:49:19,372
I don't think I can. It
doesn't feel aimed right.

932
00:49:19,457 --> 00:49:20,874
Look, look, all I want

933
00:49:20,958 --> 00:49:22,375
is for you to
shoot that armadillo

934
00:49:22,460 --> 00:49:24,461
that is digging
up my garden, okay?

935
00:49:24,545 --> 00:49:26,254
I mean, is that too
much for me to ask,

936
00:49:26,339 --> 00:49:28,715
for you to be a man
for once in your life?

937
00:49:30,801 --> 00:49:32,886
Fine.

938
00:49:32,970 --> 00:49:35,138
Now I'm holding you responsible

939
00:49:35,222 --> 00:49:38,850
for anything getting
dug up in my garden.

940
00:49:38,934 --> 00:49:41,978
Okay? You go out and
fix those holes yourself.

941
00:49:42,063 --> 00:49:45,690
Dig one you can fit in.

942
00:49:45,775 --> 00:49:49,069
Let me see.

943
00:49:49,153 --> 00:49:51,363
Did you go by the cleaners
to pick up my dress?

944
00:49:51,447 --> 00:49:52,906
Yes, earlier.

945
00:49:52,990 --> 00:49:54,407
Did you lysol
my kitchen counters?

946
00:49:56,494 --> 00:49:57,911
Did you pick up the Preparation
H from the pharmacy?

947
00:49:57,995 --> 00:50:00,121
No, but I figured
we'd go by there

948
00:50:00,206 --> 00:50:01,581
on the way to lunch. Do you still
want to go to Jalapeño Treat?

949
00:50:01,666 --> 00:50:04,959
- I guess.
- Okay, hold still.

950
00:50:05,044 --> 00:50:06,294
Jeez.

951
00:50:06,379 --> 00:50:07,712
Will you be attending

952
00:50:07,797 --> 00:50:10,465
our dress rehearsal tonight?

953
00:50:10,549 --> 00:50:11,758
No.

954
00:51:02,560 --> 00:51:05,270
Marjorie?

955
00:51:05,354 --> 00:51:07,647
Marjorie, are you okay?

956
00:51:07,732 --> 00:51:09,482
Marjorie, say something to me.

957
00:51:09,567 --> 00:51:11,317
Marjorie, can you talk to me?

958
00:51:11,402 --> 00:51:12,652
Marjorie, can you
say something?

959
00:51:12,737 --> 00:51:14,279
Oh no, no, no, no, no!

960
00:51:14,363 --> 00:51:18,575
Oh, Jesus, no, no,
no, what have I done?

961
00:51:18,659 --> 00:51:23,246
Oh, God! What have I done?

962
00:51:23,330 --> 00:51:24,831
Please tell me what to do!

963
00:51:24,915 --> 00:51:27,584
I'll do whatever
you want me to do!

Great job, everyone.

974
00:52:31,774 --> 00:52:33,650
It seemed like the flags
were a little late,

975
00:52:33,734 --> 00:52:37,320
also I want to make sure that
those fleahops are right.

976
00:52:37,404 --> 00:52:39,280
Now I got off that time

977
00:52:39,365 --> 00:52:40,740
but I feel like I got off
because one of you got off.

978
00:52:40,825 --> 00:52:42,659
But it was a really great job.

979
00:52:42,743 --> 00:52:44,911
Take five, we're gonna take
it again from the top.

980
00:52:44,995 --> 00:52:46,663
I don't think too many of us

981
00:52:46,747 --> 00:52:49,123
ever asked very many questions

982
00:52:49,208 --> 00:52:51,960
about Mrs. Nugent,
and if we did,

983
00:52:52,044 --> 00:52:54,921
he would always have
a very plausible explanation.

984
00:52:55,005 --> 00:52:57,298
Hello, Billy,
this is Bernie Tiede

985
00:52:57,383 --> 00:53:00,218
calling on behalf
of Mrs. Nugent.

986
00:53:00,302 --> 00:53:03,513
Yes, yes, she missed her
holiday haircut appointment

987
00:53:03,597 --> 00:53:07,809
but she's asked me to tell you
that she won't be coming back in.

988
00:53:07,893 --> 00:53:12,063
She wants to try someone else.

989
00:53:12,147 --> 00:53:14,148
Well, I'm sorry to say this

990
00:53:14,233 --> 00:53:19,028
but she says that you take too
long and charge too much.

991
00:53:19,113 --> 00:53:22,031
Billy, I'm sorry, but
I'm just the messenger.

992
00:53:22,116 --> 00:53:25,535
I was rather devastated
at the very idea

993
00:53:25,619 --> 00:53:28,413
that she was not coming
anymore after 30 years

994
00:53:28,497 --> 00:53:31,666
of being her
friend, hairdresser,

995
00:53:31,750 --> 00:53:35,211
confidante sometimes,

996
00:53:35,296 --> 00:53:38,298
and she just was gonna vanish.

997
00:53:38,382 --> 00:53:41,009
It was easy
for her to disappear.

998
00:53:41,093 --> 00:53:42,677
Nobody was looking for her.

999
00:53:42,761 --> 00:53:45,471
Not her son,
not her two sisters.

1000
00:53:45,556 --> 00:53:47,307
One of them
lived here in Carthage.

1001
00:53:47,391 --> 00:53:49,309
They hadn't spoken
in about 10 years.

1002
00:53:49,393 --> 00:53:51,811
You want to sign
this for Mrs. Nugent,

1003
00:53:51,896 --> 00:53:53,646
our generous benefactor?

1004
00:53:53,731 --> 00:53:55,315
Only person looking for
her was her stockbroker.

1005
00:53:58,319 --> 00:54:01,487
Oh, God.

1006
00:54:01,572 --> 00:54:02,614
Hello?

1007
00:54:02,698 --> 00:54:04,324
Bernie? Bernie!

1008
00:54:04,408 --> 00:54:06,200
Wh... where's Marjorie?

1009
00:54:06,285 --> 00:54:07,493
I... I... I haven't spoken
to her in over five weeks,

1010
00:54:07,578 --> 00:54:09,829
I've left 11 messages.

1011
00:54:09,914 --> 00:54:11,831
She's with me right now, Lloyd,

1012
00:54:11,916 --> 00:54:13,499
and I'm sorry I couldn't
tell you earlier

1013
00:54:13,584 --> 00:54:15,668
but she's had a series
of small strokes.

1014
00:54:15,753 --> 00:54:18,671
I've been meaning to call you
and let you know her situation.

1015
00:54:18,756 --> 00:54:23,968
No, she should
not be attempting to talk. No.

1016
00:54:24,053 --> 00:54:26,262
No, you can't talk.
The doctor said...

1017
00:54:26,347 --> 00:54:30,475
She's indicating for me
to tell you hi from her.

1018
00:54:30,559 --> 00:54:32,393
He sends you all his best.

1019
00:54:32,478 --> 00:54:34,312
Okay, well,

1020
00:54:34,396 --> 00:54:36,522
we'll be in touch
when she's feeling better.

1021
00:54:36,607 --> 00:54:38,149
I n the meantime, let me know

1022
00:54:38,233 --> 00:54:40,151
if I can help you
with anything. Okay.

1023
00:54:40,235 --> 00:54:43,988
Okay, bye-bye.

1024
00:54:44,073 --> 00:54:46,866
Bernie knew better
than touch my accounts.

1025
00:54:46,951 --> 00:54:49,994
But he was going after what
would go into her bank accounts

1026
00:54:50,079 --> 00:54:51,871
because that's where
all the royalty checks went.

1027
00:54:51,956 --> 00:54:55,458
It's usually 50,000 a month.

1028
00:54:55,542 --> 00:54:58,044
Now he really started
being generous.

1029
00:54:58,128 --> 00:55:02,966
He paid 5,000 dollars for the Shreveport
orchestra to come over play the Messiah.

1030
00:55:03,050 --> 00:55:07,470
He bought a high dollar
harpsichord for school.

1031
00:55:07,554 --> 00:55:10,556
He paid for the choir
to go to Russia.

1032
00:55:10,641 --> 00:55:13,685
Well, yeah, he hired me
back for more money,

1033
00:55:13,769 --> 00:55:16,229
which is fine with me.

1034
00:55:16,313 --> 00:55:18,523
Oh, he bought jet skis,

1035
00:55:18,607 --> 00:55:20,900
he bought nine cars,

1036
00:55:20,985 --> 00:55:23,152
he bought
struggling businesses,

1037
00:55:23,237 --> 00:55:26,906
he paid 40,000 dollars
for Carthage Awards.

1038
00:55:26,991 --> 00:55:28,825
That's a trophy shop.

1039
00:55:28,909 --> 00:55:31,869
He loaned the money
to the Yokums over here,

1040
00:55:31,954 --> 00:55:34,122
that opened up Boot
Scootin Western Wear.

1041
00:55:34,206 --> 00:55:37,583
I guess that was Carthage's
answer to Neiman's.

1042
00:55:37,668 --> 00:55:40,837
Bernie just told everybody to
pay him back when they could.

1043
00:55:40,921 --> 00:55:42,588
You know, pay me when you can.

1044
00:55:42,673 --> 00:55:44,465
But they never did.

1045
00:55:44,550 --> 00:55:46,592
Bernie knew my twin girls'
birthday was coming up,

1046
00:55:46,677 --> 00:55:48,177
and he thought they should have

1047
00:55:48,262 --> 00:55:51,097
a big nice playhouse, you know?

1048
00:55:51,181 --> 00:55:53,266
Little girls.

1049
00:55:53,350 --> 00:55:57,437
Bernie bought this
playhouse for my girls.

1050
00:56:00,274 --> 00:56:01,874
Oh.

1051
00:56:05,612 --> 00:56:09,574
Thank you.

1052
00:56:09,658 --> 00:56:12,368
I just feel like I need to say,
Bernie Tiede, God bless you, son.

1053
00:56:12,453 --> 00:56:15,329
You've done more to transform the
town of Carthage than anyone else.

1054
00:56:15,414 --> 00:56:21,294
- Oh, thank you.
- God bless you, Bernie.

1055
00:56:21,378 --> 00:56:24,797
Bernie could've bought a mansion
for himself with the money.

1056
00:56:24,882 --> 00:56:27,467
But he kept that little house

1057
00:56:27,551 --> 00:56:29,802
worth, maybe, 50,000.

1058
00:56:29,887 --> 00:56:33,473
Now he bought cars
for folks that needed it.

1059
00:56:33,557 --> 00:56:36,142
And he paid cash for those.

1060
00:56:36,226 --> 00:56:39,645
But that old Lincoln
he was drivin'?

1061
00:56:39,730 --> 00:56:41,481
He had it financed.

1062
00:56:41,565 --> 00:56:45,234
And he was usually
behind on his payments.

1063
00:56:45,319 --> 00:56:48,112
No, there really wasn't
any greed in him.

1064
00:56:48,197 --> 00:56:51,032
Almost everything he
got from Mrs. Nugent,

1065
00:56:51,116 --> 00:56:53,826
he gave to somebody else.

1066
00:57:03,629 --> 00:57:07,298
Lloyd seems to be
pretty concerned.

1067
00:57:07,382 --> 00:57:09,300
He thinks the family
should get involved.

1068
00:57:09,384 --> 00:57:12,386
Oh, good lord, you
gotta be kidding me.

1069
00:57:12,471 --> 00:57:15,181
I don't know why
Lloyd is so paranoid.

1070
00:57:15,265 --> 00:57:17,100
It's like I told him.

1071
00:57:17,184 --> 00:57:19,352
She's at the Scott White
Nursing Home in Temple.

1072
00:57:19,436 --> 00:57:22,355
She didn't want
everyone to know,

1073
00:57:22,439 --> 00:57:24,690
'cause she's afraid the
family would come in

1074
00:57:24,775 --> 00:57:26,275
and try to take
over her affairs.

1075
00:57:26,360 --> 00:57:29,028
That sounds just like Marjorie.

1076
00:57:29,113 --> 00:57:31,447
That's Marjorie alright.

1077
00:57:31,532 --> 00:57:33,783
One hundred percent.

1078
00:57:33,867 --> 00:57:37,203
You know, Bernie,
she's my sister,

1079
00:57:37,287 --> 00:57:39,580
and I guess that
I should love her.

1080
00:57:39,665 --> 00:57:41,124
But she's just mean.

1081
00:57:41,208 --> 00:57:43,668
She's just hard down mean.

1082
00:57:43,752 --> 00:57:46,462
Mm. Well, there's some
goodness in there, too.

1083
00:57:46,547 --> 00:57:48,506
She used to tear up my toys,

1084
00:57:48,590 --> 00:57:51,050
she pulled the heads
off my dolls,

1085
00:57:51,135 --> 00:57:54,220
she used to tear up
my homework.

1086
00:57:54,304 --> 00:58:02,304
And next up is Mrs. Ida Parker.

1087
00:58:04,398 --> 00:58:07,900
Ida says she does not
like knitting, crocheting,

1088
00:58:07,985 --> 00:58:10,278
gardening, cooking fancy food,

1089
00:58:10,362 --> 00:58:13,406
excessive housework,
or artsy hobbies.

1090
00:58:13,490 --> 00:58:16,409
She's planning on doing these
things when she gets old.

00:59:12,716 --> 00:59:18,221
Thank you.

1104
00:59:18,305 --> 00:59:21,098
So you saw Mrs. Nugent
in April of this year?

1105
00:59:21,183 --> 00:59:23,142
You know, I believe
it was April.

1106
00:59:23,227 --> 00:59:25,770
With your own eyes?

1107
00:59:25,854 --> 00:59:29,357
Well, you know, I didn't actually...
see her that day, I...

1108
00:59:29,441 --> 00:59:32,985
I came to her house to get
her to sign some documents.

1109
00:59:33,070 --> 00:59:35,947
Bernie comes to the door,
says she's feeling poorly.

1110
00:59:36,031 --> 00:59:38,991
J ust then, he takes the documents
back and she signs them.

1111
00:59:39,076 --> 00:59:40,826
I go on about my business.

1112
00:59:40,911 --> 00:59:44,664
Okay. It confirms a pattern.

1113
00:59:44,748 --> 00:59:46,123
I appreciate it.

1114
00:59:47,876 --> 00:59:50,002
Well, it sounds like
Lloyd Hornbuckle

1115
00:59:50,087 --> 00:59:51,837
called Wayne J unior
up in Amarillo,

1116
00:59:51,922 --> 00:59:53,464
and got him all riled up.

1117
00:59:53,548 --> 00:59:55,675
Oh, boy.

1118
00:59:55,759 --> 00:59:57,593
You know, I think
Lloyd's just upset

1119
00:59:57,678 --> 00:59:59,637
because he's losing commissions
during her illness.

1120
00:59:59,721 --> 01:00:01,681
He can't move Mrs. Nugent's
money around

1121
01:00:01,765 --> 01:00:04,350
and keep taking his commissions
the way he's used to, so...

1122
01:00:04,434 --> 01:00:06,686
It may be so, but Dwayne
J unior says his money

1123
01:00:06,770 --> 01:00:10,273
comes in every year for his
kids from his dad's will.

1124
01:00:10,357 --> 01:00:12,275
It hadn't come in this year.

1125
01:00:12,359 --> 01:00:13,859
And it won't until Mrs. Nugent's
in better condition

1126
01:00:13,944 --> 01:00:15,278
to take care of such things.

1127
01:00:15,362 --> 01:00:16,696
The poor lady's in the hospital

1128
01:00:16,780 --> 01:00:18,322
having suffered a major stroke.

1129
01:00:18,407 --> 01:00:20,283
She simply doesn't
want to be disturbed.

1130
01:00:20,367 --> 01:00:22,535
Tell everyone
for heaven's sake,

1131
01:00:22,619 --> 01:00:24,203
to please have
a little more patience.

1132
01:00:24,288 --> 01:00:25,788
Well, that's fine with me.

1133
01:00:25,872 --> 01:00:27,164
I don't want her disturbing me,

1134
01:00:27,249 --> 01:00:31,294
if you wanna know the truth.

1135
01:00:31,378 --> 01:00:33,546
I'm sorry you had to get
wrapped up in all this.

1136
01:00:33,630 --> 01:00:36,882
Oh, forget about it, Lloyd
Hornbuckle's just a busybody.

1137
01:00:36,967 --> 01:00:39,593
- I'll see you later, Bernie.
- Thank you, Sheriff.

1138
01:00:52,232 --> 01:00:53,858
Hello.

1139
01:00:53,942 --> 01:00:56,569
You are living
in a wold of guilt.

1140
01:00:56,653 --> 01:01:00,614
All the police have to do is
find one shred of evidence

1141
01:01:00,699 --> 01:01:04,118
and it's off to hell you go.

1142
01:01:04,202 --> 01:01:06,287
Lloyd, is that you?

1143
01:01:06,371 --> 01:01:09,332
Lloyd? Hello...

1144
01:01:13,378 --> 01:01:14,837
Bernie, are you okay?

1145
01:01:14,921 --> 01:01:18,799
Yeah, I just...

1146
01:01:20,677 --> 01:01:22,053
Can I ask you something?

1147
01:01:22,137 --> 01:01:23,596
Of course.

1148
01:01:23,680 --> 01:01:27,183
It's so strange.

1149
01:01:27,267 --> 01:01:32,772
Do you believe a person
could be capable of...

1150
01:01:32,856 --> 01:01:35,107
an action...

1151
01:01:35,192 --> 01:01:36,525
and yet to them it feels like

1152
01:01:36,610 --> 01:01:37,902
it's not even them doing it.

1153
01:01:37,986 --> 01:01:42,782
Almost like Jekyll and Hyde?

1154
01:01:42,866 --> 01:01:47,203
Bernie, stop worrying,
it's okay.

1155
01:01:47,287 --> 01:01:52,291
Someone's personal proclivities
are nobody's else's business.

1156
01:01:52,376 --> 01:01:58,798
We all love you like you
are, Bernie, no matter what.

1163
01:02:29,704 --> 01:02:32,123
- That was beautiful.
- Thank you.

1165
01:02:35,043 --> 01:02:36,544
Thank you.

1166
01:02:36,628 --> 01:02:38,045
As always, Bernie,
I love the songs.

1167
01:02:38,130 --> 01:02:39,964
- Thank you.
- My sympathies.

1168
01:02:40,048 --> 01:02:41,632
Thank you, Mari Belle, it's
always great to see you.

1169
01:02:41,716 --> 01:02:43,509
I'm so sorry
Marjorie didn't hear that,

1170
01:02:43,593 --> 01:02:45,928
I hear she's doing better.

1171
01:02:46,012 --> 01:02:50,599
Yes, some days it seems she's
starting to feel better but...

1172
01:02:50,684 --> 01:02:52,518
I'm still afraid...

1173
01:02:52,602 --> 01:02:54,186
I'm gonna lose her soon.

1174
01:03:01,403 --> 01:03:03,529
Finally.

1175
01:03:03,613 --> 01:03:06,866
Nine months since I had last
laid eyes on Mrs. Nugent,

1176
01:03:06,950 --> 01:03:08,617
we got into her house.

1177
01:03:08,702 --> 01:03:09,660
Grandma?

1178
01:03:17,127 --> 01:03:18,461
Mrs. Nugent?

1179
01:03:20,797 --> 01:03:21,672
Grandma?

1180
01:03:29,973 --> 01:03:30,681
Nothing.

1181
01:03:45,655 --> 01:03:47,114
There's nothing.

1182
01:04:23,026 --> 01:04:26,779
Why would she tape
her freezer shut?

1183
01:04:47,467 --> 01:04:50,469
Oh, my God.

1184
01:04:50,554 --> 01:04:52,096
Sheriff!

1185
01:04:58,019 --> 01:05:00,646
Sir, I'm a reporter
for KCMchannel.

1186
01:05:00,730 --> 01:05:02,898
Ma'am, hold on.

1187
01:05:02,983 --> 01:05:04,191
Would you care to make a
statement about what's going on?

1188
01:05:04,276 --> 01:05:05,651
- Sheriff?
- Hey, Danny.

1189
01:05:05,735 --> 01:05:08,320
- I n the freezer?
- Yeah.

1190
01:05:08,405 --> 01:05:10,406
All in one piece or chopped up?

1191
01:05:10,490 --> 01:05:13,033
- All in one piece.
- Holy shit.

1192
01:05:13,118 --> 01:05:15,327
Frozen like a Popsicle.

1193
01:05:23,962 --> 01:05:25,087
Be careful.

1194
01:05:49,195 --> 01:05:50,779
Alright, get rolling,

1195
01:05:50,864 --> 01:05:52,948
straight to Dallas,
no stopping for coffee.

1196
01:05:53,033 --> 01:05:55,284
- Alright.
- No sir, we ain't stoppin'.

1197
01:06:02,834 --> 01:06:06,045
We had loaded up the freezer
with its contents intact

1198
01:06:06,129 --> 01:06:09,506
for transport to the Dallas
Medical Examiner's office

1199
01:06:09,591 --> 01:06:11,300
where the forensic
experts over there

1200
01:06:11,384 --> 01:06:13,218
are gonna study it.

1201
01:06:13,303 --> 01:06:15,971
At this time, are there any
suspects in the murder?

1202
01:06:16,056 --> 01:06:17,806
Oh, there's one man in
particular I can think of

1203
01:06:17,891 --> 01:06:20,059
I sure would like to talk to.

1204
01:06:20,143 --> 01:06:21,852
Hey, Sheriff, did you
actually find him yet?

1205
01:06:21,936 --> 01:06:23,312
We're still looking for him.

1206
01:06:23,396 --> 01:06:24,688
He wasn't at Carthage aviation,

1207
01:06:24,773 --> 01:06:26,023
Carthage Awards or his house.

1208
01:06:26,107 --> 01:06:28,192
Alright, look...

1209
01:06:28,276 --> 01:06:30,819
we're gonna throw a net over
the entire tri-county area

1210
01:06:30,904 --> 01:06:32,946
to find our number one suspect.

1211
01:06:33,031 --> 01:06:34,573
We might be dealing
with a madman here,

1212
01:06:34,658 --> 01:06:36,158
a bonafide deranged killer.

1213
01:06:36,242 --> 01:06:39,411
Achieving goals,
mastering skills,

1214
01:06:39,496 --> 01:06:40,871
the opponent
isn't the other team,

1215
01:06:40,955 --> 01:06:42,623
it's really just yourself.

1216
01:06:42,707 --> 01:06:44,249
And if you've worked hard,

1217
01:06:44,334 --> 01:06:45,918
and done the absolute
best that you can,

1218
01:06:46,002 --> 01:06:47,920
then no matter what
the scoreboard says,

1219
01:06:48,004 --> 01:06:50,631
you are the winner
in the game of life.

1220
01:06:50,715 --> 01:06:52,299
You can hold your head high...

1221
01:06:52,384 --> 01:06:55,052
Mr. Tiede, may we
have a word with you?

1222
01:06:55,136 --> 01:06:57,513
Of course. Right now?

1223
01:06:57,597 --> 01:06:59,181
Sure.

1224
01:06:59,265 --> 01:07:01,767
I'm gonna go talk
to the police.

1225
01:07:01,851 --> 01:07:04,103
Gentlemen, you have
earned yourself...

1226
01:07:04,187 --> 01:07:07,439
a great dessert. Go, Rattlers.

1227
01:07:07,524 --> 01:07:09,274
I'm so proud of you.

1228
01:07:09,359 --> 01:07:11,527
This way.

1229
01:07:14,114 --> 01:07:17,282
How long you been thinking
about killing her, Bernie?

1230
01:07:17,367 --> 01:07:21,203
I never thought of me
killing Mrs. Nugent.

1231
01:07:21,287 --> 01:07:25,916
I'd... I guess I fantasized
about her death,

1232
01:07:26,000 --> 01:07:29,628
but I was never
the one responsible for it.

1233
01:07:29,713 --> 01:07:32,548
She always died
accidentally like...

1234
01:07:32,632 --> 01:07:37,928
in a car accident or falling down the
escalator at the mall in Longview.

1235
01:07:38,012 --> 01:07:41,515
I was always the one weeping
by her open casket.

1236
01:07:41,599 --> 01:07:45,477
Comforting others,
being comforted myself.

1237
01:07:45,562 --> 01:07:48,814
Why'd you want
her dead, Bernie?

1238
01:07:48,898 --> 01:07:53,444
Mm, she had become so mean
and possessive of me.

1239
01:07:53,528 --> 01:07:56,613
I... I couldn't face being
around her any longer.

1240
01:07:56,698 --> 01:07:58,782
And then it just... happened.

1241
01:07:58,867 --> 01:08:01,535
I don't know. I shot her!

1242
01:08:01,619 --> 01:08:05,330
I shot poor
Mrs. Nugent four times.

1243
01:08:05,415 --> 01:08:10,085
With the armadillo gun.

1244
01:08:10,170 --> 01:08:11,545
Then what?

1245
01:08:16,217 --> 01:08:20,179
Well, then the Lord
called her Home.

1246
01:08:20,263 --> 01:08:26,518
I know I done wrong and I
must atone for my sins. Oh!

1247
01:08:34,861 --> 01:08:39,573
Elizabeth, I just heard Bernie
killed your sister Margy.

1248
01:08:39,657 --> 01:08:41,784
Oh, honey, no.

1249
01:08:41,868 --> 01:08:44,203
Marjorie's in a nursing
home over in Timble.

1250
01:08:44,287 --> 01:08:48,624
No, no, she is in a deep
freeze going to Dallas.

1251
01:08:48,708 --> 01:08:51,251
Nobody in a million years

1252
01:08:51,336 --> 01:08:53,879
could've imagined that
that could've happened.

1253
01:08:53,963 --> 01:08:58,884
Shock! I could not
believe Bernie did this.

1254
01:08:58,968 --> 01:09:01,053
No way.

1255
01:09:01,137 --> 01:09:04,723
Well, it was fucking unbelievable.
Nobody could believe it.

1256
01:09:04,808 --> 01:09:07,726
You know, I could see somebody
wantin' to do that to her,

1257
01:09:07,811 --> 01:09:10,687
but Bernie Tiede's the last
person I woulda thought done it.

1258
01:09:10,772 --> 01:09:14,399
I mean, we were just shocked,
just shocked. J ust disbelief.

1259
01:09:14,484 --> 01:09:17,361
The Bernie I knew
was somewhat of a sissy.

1260
01:09:17,445 --> 01:09:19,238
And it just ain't no way

1261
01:09:19,322 --> 01:09:21,240
I can see him
ever killing anybody.

1262
01:09:21,324 --> 01:09:22,825
I thought they'd
made a mistake.

1263
01:09:22,909 --> 01:09:25,869
You got this sweet guy,
you got Bernie,

1264
01:09:25,954 --> 01:09:27,454
who's just the nicest
fella I'd ever met,

1265
01:09:27,539 --> 01:09:28,914
and I've known him
for a little while,

1266
01:09:28,998 --> 01:09:30,749
and then you got... Mrs. Nugent

1267
01:09:30,834 --> 01:09:33,252
who is not nice,

1268
01:09:33,336 --> 01:09:35,712
not nice to a
large degree, just evil.

1269
01:09:35,797 --> 01:09:38,048
So you got this sweetness
and you got this evil,

1270
01:09:38,132 --> 01:09:40,759
and they're kinda battlin'
each other...

1271
01:09:40,844 --> 01:09:42,970
and you know that something
at some point's gotta give,

1272
01:09:43,054 --> 01:09:44,972
something's gotta break

1273
01:09:45,056 --> 01:09:47,391
and she was justs more evil
than he was nice, I guess,

1274
01:09:47,475 --> 01:09:49,017
and he just exploded.

1275
01:09:49,102 --> 01:09:52,604
We're all capable
of that dark moment.

1276
01:09:52,689 --> 01:09:56,275
If we ever get angry enough.

1277
01:09:56,359 --> 01:09:58,610
He must've wanted
to get caught.

1278
01:09:58,695 --> 01:10:00,529
All he had to do
was put her body

1279
01:10:00,613 --> 01:10:02,322
in one of his airplanes,

1280
01:10:02,407 --> 01:10:04,992
fly her out over the Gulf
and push her right out.

1281
01:10:05,076 --> 01:10:08,078
No body, no arrest.

1282
01:10:08,162 --> 01:10:10,289
A woman like that
with a bad heart...

1283
01:10:10,373 --> 01:10:13,125
he shoulda just shoved the
pillow right over her face.

1284
01:10:13,209 --> 01:10:15,627
Then they probably wouldn't
even done an autopsy.

1285
01:10:15,712 --> 01:10:17,921
A few days later, he'd
be doing her funeral.

1286
01:10:18,006 --> 01:10:20,048
Oh, I just started
shaking my head

1287
01:10:20,133 --> 01:10:22,551
going, "Oh Bernie,
Bernie, Bernie, Bernie."

1288
01:10:22,635 --> 01:10:25,721
Who in their right mind
would kill their meal ticket?

1289
01:10:25,805 --> 01:10:27,639
It was crazy around here.

1290
01:10:27,724 --> 01:10:31,476
People were on Danny Buck
like ticks on a coon dog.

1291
01:10:31,561 --> 01:10:33,478
Yeah, Danny Buck, you
know Bernie didn't know

1292
01:10:33,563 --> 01:10:34,980
anything about
shooting a rifle.

1293
01:10:35,064 --> 01:10:36,773
He didn't go huntin',

1294
01:10:36,858 --> 01:10:38,734
he wouldn't know a deer
blind from an outhouse.

1295
01:10:38,818 --> 01:10:40,611
That he wouldn't.

1296
01:10:40,695 --> 01:10:42,237
There are not enough
nice men in this town.

1297
01:10:42,322 --> 01:10:43,989
Leave poor Bernie
alone, Danny Buck.

1298
01:10:44,073 --> 01:10:45,532
We don't even think he did it.

1299
01:10:45,617 --> 01:10:47,534
He confessed.

1300
01:10:47,619 --> 01:10:49,369
Danny Buck,

1301
01:10:49,454 --> 01:10:51,955
you knew Mrs. Nugent as
well as any of us did.

1302
01:10:52,040 --> 01:10:53,332
Did you ever stop to think

1303
01:10:53,416 --> 01:10:55,959
maybe, just maybe

1304
01:10:56,044 --> 01:10:58,587
Bernie did it in self defense.

1305
01:10:58,671 --> 01:11:00,130
Self defense.

1306
01:11:00,214 --> 01:11:01,590
Maybe it was a
forced confession.

1307
01:11:01,674 --> 01:11:03,342
They could've
beat it out of him.

1308
01:11:03,426 --> 01:11:05,010
He's too sweet to stand
up under interrogation.

1309
01:11:05,094 --> 01:11:06,845
Look, there was
no interrogation.

1310
01:11:06,930 --> 01:11:10,057
He walked in, sat down
and told us everything.

1311
01:11:10,141 --> 01:11:12,017
Simple as that.

1312
01:11:12,101 --> 01:11:13,685
Well, hell.

1313
01:11:13,770 --> 01:11:15,270
Even if he did do it,

1314
01:11:15,355 --> 01:11:16,688
she was so mean and ornery,

1315
01:11:16,773 --> 01:11:18,440
she had it coming to her.

1316
01:11:18,524 --> 01:11:20,734
It's not as bad as
people say it is.

1317
01:11:20,818 --> 01:11:23,862
He only shot her four
times, not five.

1318
01:11:23,947 --> 01:11:25,364
You know what?

1319
01:11:25,448 --> 01:11:27,324
You people are
as crazy as a coot.

1320
01:11:27,408 --> 01:11:29,910
I like Bernie Tiede
as much as you do.

1321
01:11:29,994 --> 01:11:33,330
He did shoot her though!

1322
01:11:33,414 --> 01:11:35,374
I tell you what.

1323
01:11:35,458 --> 01:11:36,959
I don't claim to
know what Bernie did

1324
01:11:37,043 --> 01:11:38,794
or did not do.

1325
01:11:38,878 --> 01:11:41,171
I figure that's between
him and God Almighty.

1326
01:11:41,255 --> 01:11:43,882
And the way I figure it,

1327
01:11:43,967 --> 01:11:46,760
that's where it should stay.

1328
01:11:46,844 --> 01:11:50,889
Man, I hope I'm on that jury.

1329
01:11:50,974 --> 01:11:54,893
Yes, we need to be able to forgive
someone who's done something wrong.

1330
01:11:54,978 --> 01:11:57,312
And no matter what
the truth is,

1331
01:11:57,397 --> 01:12:01,566
Bernie is going
to need our prayers.

1332
01:12:01,651 --> 01:12:04,027
So, folks, we
need to understand

1333
01:12:04,112 --> 01:12:08,365
that tragedies are simply
tests of our faith.

1334
01:12:08,449 --> 01:12:10,534
And right now,
Bernie needs to know,

1335
01:12:10,618 --> 01:12:15,163
especially during this
testing of his faith,

1336
01:12:15,248 --> 01:12:19,126
that God and this congregation

1337
01:12:19,210 --> 01:12:22,879
have not abandoned him.

1338
01:12:24,799 --> 01:12:26,008
Good to see you,
thanks for coming.

1339
01:12:26,092 --> 01:12:27,426
Good to see you.

1340
01:12:27,510 --> 01:12:29,052
God bless you for everything.

1341
01:12:29,137 --> 01:12:31,054
Reverend. Now listen,

1342
01:12:31,139 --> 01:12:35,267
I understand you going all
New Testament on him but...

1343
01:12:35,351 --> 01:12:37,394
you got to at least
take him off the prayer list.

1344
01:12:37,478 --> 01:12:41,106
Hey, I gotta stay neutral,
everybody needs a preacher.

1345
01:12:41,190 --> 01:12:43,191
Neutral?

1346
01:12:43,276 --> 01:12:46,194
Reverend, basically you were
supporting a criminal act.

1347
01:12:46,279 --> 01:12:48,530
You know, all I hear
is poor Bernie.

1348
01:12:48,614 --> 01:12:50,282
Nobody's talking
about poor Marjorie.

1349
01:12:50,366 --> 01:12:52,576
Hell, everyone seems
to be forgetting

1350
01:12:52,660 --> 01:12:55,245
that there's a lady,
a member of this congregation,

1351
01:12:55,329 --> 01:12:56,872
shot in the back four times

1352
01:12:56,956 --> 01:12:58,457
and put in the freezer.

1353
01:12:58,541 --> 01:13:00,208
Danny, the Bernie
you're talking about

1354
01:13:00,293 --> 01:13:02,544
is not the Bernie
this church knows.

1355
01:13:02,628 --> 01:13:04,671
The heck it isn't.

1356
01:13:04,756 --> 01:13:06,840
It sounds like the only Bernie
you're choosing to remember

1357
01:13:06,924 --> 01:13:09,926
is the one that donated 100,000
dollars to your church. Reverend.

1358
01:13:10,011 --> 01:13:12,304
Danny, look, I'm sorry
you feel that...

1359
01:13:12,388 --> 01:13:15,474
It's been hard on everyone.

1360
01:13:15,558 --> 01:13:17,476
Alright, kiddos.

1361
01:13:17,560 --> 01:13:19,144
All the good that Bernie
had done for everybody,

1362
01:13:19,228 --> 01:13:21,855
or for us around here,
it just...

1363
01:13:21,939 --> 01:13:23,982
they come in, and then
it was gonna get all.

1364
01:13:24,067 --> 01:13:27,110
Mrs. Nugent's money back
that Bernie had spent.

1365
01:13:27,195 --> 01:13:29,112
We lost our airport,

1366
01:13:29,197 --> 01:13:32,324
we lost our best store,

1367
01:13:32,408 --> 01:13:36,369
cars, some people
lost their houses,

1368
01:13:36,454 --> 01:13:39,331
jet skis.

1369
01:13:39,415 --> 01:13:42,501
He spent 600,000 dollars
of Mrs. Nugent's money.

1370
01:13:52,428 --> 01:13:53,845
No paperwork, anything?

1371
01:13:53,930 --> 01:13:56,014
A receipt?

1372
01:13:56,099 --> 01:13:57,891
I don't know, I mean...

1373
01:13:57,975 --> 01:14:00,477
he just gave it to me,
said I could have it.

1374
01:14:04,524 --> 01:14:06,233
Well, you know, at least
they could've left

1375
01:14:06,317 --> 01:14:07,526
some money for the church.

1376
01:14:07,610 --> 01:14:11,029
Hell,.

1377
01:14:11,114 --> 01:14:12,614
Here they come!

1378
01:14:15,076 --> 01:14:17,661
Although rumors have
been circulating

1379
01:14:17,745 --> 01:14:19,454
about a possible plea bargain

1380
01:14:19,539 --> 01:14:21,790
to lesser charges
or a probated sentence,

1381
01:14:21,874 --> 01:14:23,959
District Attorney
Danny Buck Davidson

1382
01:14:24,043 --> 01:14:26,169
has shocked East Texas

1383
01:14:26,254 --> 01:14:28,547
by filing first degree murder
charges against Tiede,

1384
01:14:28,631 --> 01:14:31,049
which could result
in a life sentence.

1385
01:14:33,177 --> 01:14:35,137
Clearly, the tiny town
of Carthage is buzzing

1386
01:14:35,221 --> 01:14:37,139
with opinions over the murder.

1387
01:14:37,223 --> 01:14:40,100
He didn't shoot
Mrs. Nugent in the back.

1388
01:14:40,184 --> 01:14:41,560
He didn't do it.

1389
01:14:41,644 --> 01:14:45,105
Bernhardt Tiede
ain't no monster.

1390
01:14:45,189 --> 01:14:48,733
Ain't no jury gonna convict
Bernie of first degree murder.

1391
01:14:48,818 --> 01:14:50,694
In fact, I don't know

1392
01:14:50,778 --> 01:14:53,238
if a jury's gonna
convict him of anything

1393
01:14:53,322 --> 01:14:55,490
and I'll say this, if a
jury as to convict him,

1394
01:14:55,575 --> 01:14:57,325
they'll probably gonna
give him probation.

1395
01:14:57,410 --> 01:14:59,202
They ain't gonna send him
to the penitentiary.

1396
01:14:59,287 --> 01:15:01,496
I n the meantime, Bernie
sits in the county jail

1397
01:15:01,581 --> 01:15:03,498
where he's reportedly
already become

1398
01:15:03,583 --> 01:15:05,167
a popular inmate

1399
01:15:05,251 --> 01:15:07,169
leading a Bible study group

1400
01:15:07,253 --> 01:15:09,254
and cooking meals
for the staff.

1401
01:15:09,338 --> 01:15:11,173
Now, we are going
to line the bottom

1402
01:15:11,257 --> 01:15:13,175
of the pie dish with cheese

1403
01:15:13,259 --> 01:15:15,552
to provide a barrier between
the liquid and the crust.

1404
01:15:15,636 --> 01:15:17,888
Now a lot of people
use grated cheese,

1405
01:15:17,972 --> 01:15:20,432
but I found that if you cut it
in little quarter inch cubes,

1406
01:15:20,516 --> 01:15:23,351
it does a better job of keeping
the crust from getting soggy.

1407
01:15:23,436 --> 01:15:29,566
Now, we are going to sauté the
broccoli lightly in olive oil

1408
01:15:29,650 --> 01:15:31,776
till it's just bright green.

1409
01:15:31,861 --> 01:15:33,570
That keeps the flavor in.

1410
01:15:33,654 --> 01:15:35,572
If you put it in raw,
it's completely flavorless.

1411
01:15:35,656 --> 01:15:39,784
I'm not saying we want
the case totally dropped,

1412
01:15:39,869 --> 01:15:43,288
but isn't there some way to keep
Bernie from getting punished too much?

1413
01:15:43,372 --> 01:15:45,916
That's $ 14.74.

1414
01:15:46,000 --> 01:15:47,959
So let me ask you
something, Mrs. Beck.

1415
01:15:48,044 --> 01:15:51,171
If someone came along and shot
you in the back four times,

1416
01:15:51,255 --> 01:15:55,217
would you still be fine with me not
letting them get punished too much?

1417
01:15:55,301 --> 01:15:57,385
If I'm on that
jury, Danny Buck,

1418
01:15:57,470 --> 01:15:59,971
I'm votin' to acquit.

1419
01:16:04,727 --> 01:16:07,354
As far as convicting Bernie,

1420
01:16:07,438 --> 01:16:10,649
I feed you straight. I mean, even
with the confession in my pocket,

1421
01:16:10,733 --> 01:16:12,984
I was a bit trepidacious.

1422
01:16:13,069 --> 01:16:16,821
I mean, it's like he cast a
spell over the entire area.

1423
01:16:16,906 --> 01:16:19,241
All the little old ladies,

1424
01:16:19,325 --> 01:16:21,326
Methodist church people,

1425
01:16:21,410 --> 01:16:23,453
anybody he'd ever
given anything to.

1426
01:16:23,537 --> 01:16:25,830
With Mrs. Nugent's money.

1427
01:16:25,915 --> 01:16:28,416
All the closet homosexuals.
Everybody.

1428
01:16:28,501 --> 01:16:30,252
Everybody thought he
was gonna get off.

1429
01:16:30,336 --> 01:16:34,005
But I had one
card left to play.

1430
01:16:34,090 --> 01:16:36,174
And I went all in.

1431
01:16:36,259 --> 01:16:39,719
Trials are generally moved
when the judge determines

1432
01:16:39,804 --> 01:16:43,723
that the defendant can't get
a fair trial locally.

1433
01:16:43,808 --> 01:16:49,980
And that's usually because the crime
is so egregious and so well known

1434
01:16:50,064 --> 01:16:52,107
that everybody in the community
has already convicted

1435
01:16:52,191 --> 01:16:55,360
the poor son
of a bitch accused of it.

1436
01:16:55,444 --> 01:16:59,030
But in all the years I've
been doing this for a living,

1437
01:16:59,115 --> 01:17:01,700
I have never heard of the state

1438
01:17:01,784 --> 01:17:03,618
seeking a change of venue

1439
01:17:03,703 --> 01:17:06,204
because the defendant
was so well liked

1440
01:17:06,289 --> 01:17:08,665
that they couldn't
get a conviction.

1441
01:17:08,749 --> 01:17:14,045
So when I heard that the judge had
actually agreed to move the trial,

1442
01:17:14,130 --> 01:17:19,092
giving in to Danny Buck's
harebrained request,

1443
01:17:19,176 --> 01:17:22,762
my first thought
was, "Oh, shit."

1444
01:17:22,847 --> 01:17:25,181
Our donkey's in a ditch."

1445
01:17:28,144 --> 01:17:29,686
Bring in the freezer.

1446
01:17:32,231 --> 01:17:34,858
Let the jury be able to see

1447
01:17:34,942 --> 01:17:40,905
where Mrs. Nugent spent the first
nine months of her afterlife.

1448
01:17:40,990 --> 01:17:43,241
A poor excuse for a casket.

1449
01:17:43,326 --> 01:17:46,244
Boys, make sure it
opens up to the jury.

1450
01:17:46,329 --> 01:17:49,914
There's some wild shit on
both sides of the courtroom.

1451
01:17:49,999 --> 01:17:52,584
But, you know,
this was the big stage

1452
01:17:52,668 --> 01:17:56,046
the big town, the big show
they'd been waiting for

1453
01:17:56,130 --> 01:17:57,797
and they pulled
out all the stops.

1454
01:17:57,882 --> 01:18:01,593
They wheeled in
the actual deep freeze.

1455
01:18:07,600 --> 01:18:13,021
They projected pictures of
frozen dead Mrs. Nugent.

1456
01:18:13,105 --> 01:18:17,275
And then they started bringing out
the crying weeping relatives.

1457
01:18:17,360 --> 01:18:19,861
And then I went to the freezer.

1458
01:18:19,945 --> 01:18:21,446
And I saw

1459
01:18:21,530 --> 01:18:25,450
underneath her corn
and her steak and...

1460
01:18:25,534 --> 01:18:28,203
her pot pies was...

1461
01:18:28,287 --> 01:18:32,457
the top of her head.

1462
01:18:32,541 --> 01:18:34,000
It was so horrible.

1463
01:18:38,714 --> 01:18:40,382
No further questions,
Your Honor.

1464
01:18:44,053 --> 01:18:46,805
When was the last time you
talked to your grandmother?

1465
01:18:46,889 --> 01:18:50,475
U m, I don't remember.

1466
01:18:50,559 --> 01:18:52,185
Isn't it true that
you and your brother

1467
01:18:52,269 --> 01:18:56,815
sued your grandmother
almost four years ago?

1468
01:18:56,899 --> 01:18:59,275
We were advised to by a lawyer.

1469
01:18:59,360 --> 01:19:01,236
A lawyer?

1470
01:19:01,320 --> 01:19:06,074
You mean, just some old boy
come in off the street?

1471
01:19:06,158 --> 01:19:09,202
Or are we talking
about your lawyer?

1472
01:19:09,286 --> 01:19:11,996
I guess he was working for us.

1473
01:19:12,081 --> 01:19:14,582
I'll say he was
working for you.

1474
01:19:14,667 --> 01:19:18,002
He was trying to get your
grandmother's money, wasn't he?

1475
01:19:21,799 --> 01:19:26,177
Did you ever speak
to her after that?

1476
01:19:26,262 --> 01:19:27,470
I don't think so.

1477
01:19:27,555 --> 01:19:29,055
Oh, you don't think so.

1478
01:19:29,140 --> 01:19:31,641
Well, you know you didn't.

1479
01:19:31,725 --> 01:19:34,644
But you told us earlier that you
were real close to your grandmother.

1480
01:19:34,728 --> 01:19:37,981
Now was that the same woman
you were suing for money?

1481
01:19:38,065 --> 01:19:40,191
Is that the same woman

1482
01:19:40,276 --> 01:19:44,195
that you have not spoken
to in four years?

1483
01:19:44,280 --> 01:19:47,782
I felt in our hearts
we were still close.

1484
01:19:50,453 --> 01:19:51,786
I knew he was in trouble

1485
01:19:51,871 --> 01:19:54,247
when I saw that jury.

1486
01:19:54,331 --> 01:19:57,834
And Bernie was just gonna have to
get up there and explain himself

1487
01:19:57,918 --> 01:20:02,422
to a bunch of Saint Augustine
cousin-countin' rednecks over there.

1488
01:20:02,506 --> 01:20:05,592
I mean, they got more
tattoos than teeth

1489
01:20:05,676 --> 01:20:08,553
and there ain't no brain
in the whole dozen of 'em,

1490
01:20:08,637 --> 01:20:10,722
and they're supposed to decide

1491
01:20:10,806 --> 01:20:13,266
big things like this?

1492
01:20:13,350 --> 01:20:17,896
I mean, shoot, I wouldn't
let 'em work on my car.

1493
01:20:17,980 --> 01:20:20,398
Now, Bernie,

1494
01:20:20,483 --> 01:20:23,485
after you were arrested you
gave a confession, correct?

1495
01:20:23,569 --> 01:20:26,571
Yes, sir.

1496
01:20:26,655 --> 01:20:30,366
How did you feel
about Marjorie Nugent?

1497
01:20:30,451 --> 01:20:33,036
I cared for Marjorie deeply.

1498
01:20:33,120 --> 01:20:35,371
I loved her very much.

1499
01:20:35,456 --> 01:20:37,207
And I've sent letters
from jail to her family

1500
01:20:37,291 --> 01:20:41,586
asking their forgiveness
for ruining Margy's life

1501
01:20:41,670 --> 01:20:44,923
and the pain I've caused.

1502
01:20:45,007 --> 01:20:47,300
Well, if you cared for her,

1503
01:20:47,384 --> 01:20:50,094
even loved her,

1504
01:20:50,179 --> 01:20:53,097
why do you reckon
you killed her?

1505
01:20:55,059 --> 01:20:56,476
I could probably describe
it like being in prison

1506
01:20:56,560 --> 01:20:59,562
to some degree.

1507
01:20:59,647 --> 01:21:01,523
She wouldn't allow me
to have any friends,

1508
01:21:01,607 --> 01:21:04,734
and I'm a people person. I
got to have my friends.

1509
01:21:06,612 --> 01:21:11,407
She was very jealous
and possessive of my time.

1510
01:21:11,492 --> 01:21:15,787
She had become so hateful.

1511
01:21:15,871 --> 01:21:18,623
I don't even remember picking
up the gun that day.

1512
01:21:18,707 --> 01:21:21,626
It was like someone
else was doing it.

1513
01:21:21,710 --> 01:21:24,128
So why did you
leave the body there?

1514
01:21:24,213 --> 01:21:26,130
It would seem to me that

1515
01:21:26,215 --> 01:21:28,132
if you didn't
want to get caught,

1516
01:21:28,217 --> 01:21:30,426
you'd find some way
to dispose of it.

1517
01:21:30,511 --> 01:21:31,803
Oh no, no, no.

1518
01:21:31,887 --> 01:21:34,138
I could never do that.

1519
01:21:34,223 --> 01:21:35,932
That was never my intention.

1520
01:21:36,016 --> 01:21:38,309
Everyone deserves
a proper burial.

1521
01:21:38,394 --> 01:21:40,687
And I was...

1522
01:21:40,771 --> 01:21:43,982
I was just waiting for my
chance to give her one.

1523
01:21:52,950 --> 01:21:54,993
Thank you, Bernie.

1524
01:21:55,077 --> 01:21:58,371
I'll pass the witness.

1525
01:21:58,455 --> 01:22:01,916
So help me out here, Bernie.

1526
01:22:02,001 --> 01:22:07,505
On this trip with Mrs. Nugent
to New York City,

1527
01:22:07,590 --> 01:22:12,468
did you fly first class?

1528
01:22:12,553 --> 01:22:15,013
Yes, I believe we did.

1529
01:22:15,097 --> 01:22:17,515
Tell us the difference between
like the first class seats

1530
01:22:17,600 --> 01:22:19,684
and the regular old seats
in the back of the plane.

1531
01:22:19,768 --> 01:22:22,687
I... I've never been up there.

1532
01:22:22,771 --> 01:22:25,523
I'd say the seats
are a little larger maybe.

1533
01:22:25,608 --> 01:22:27,692
More comfortable.

1534
01:22:27,776 --> 01:22:30,236
Don't they have people waiting'
on you and stuff too, you know?

1535
01:22:30,321 --> 01:22:32,697
I mean, people
bringing you fancy food,

1536
01:22:32,781 --> 01:22:36,951
and serving you whatever you want
to drink and stuff like that?

1537
01:22:37,036 --> 01:22:40,288
Yes, the service
is probably a little better.

1538
01:22:40,372 --> 01:22:42,665
Oh, so you like the
first class treatment.

1539
01:22:42,750 --> 01:22:48,421
First class lifestyle, the
best that money can buy.

1540
01:22:48,505 --> 01:22:50,381
I was accompanying Mrs. Nugent

1541
01:22:50,466 --> 01:22:52,425
who usually preferred these
things when she traveled.

1542
01:22:52,509 --> 01:22:54,510
So.

1543
01:22:54,595 --> 01:22:57,889
Now, on that
New York City trip,

1544
01:22:57,973 --> 01:22:59,724
it says here that
you and Mrs. Nugent

1545
01:22:59,808 --> 01:23:05,355
stayed at the...
the Ritz Carlton?

1546
01:23:05,439 --> 01:23:09,067
That's a fancy hotel near
Central Park, isn't it?

1547
01:23:09,151 --> 01:23:12,070
Yes, I believe that
is where we stayed.

1548
01:23:12,154 --> 01:23:14,989
It also says here that while
you were in New York City,

1549
01:23:15,074 --> 01:23:17,367
you saw an opera.

1550
01:23:17,451 --> 01:23:19,285
And a Broadway play.

1551
01:23:19,370 --> 01:23:22,413
I think it's called
"Les Miserables."

1552
01:23:22,498 --> 01:23:27,752
Les Miserable.

1553
01:23:27,836 --> 01:23:31,422
That's impressive.

1554
01:23:31,507 --> 01:23:32,965
What?

1555
01:23:33,050 --> 01:23:36,761
So culture is important to you.

1556
01:23:36,845 --> 01:23:38,721
I n what way?

1557
01:23:38,806 --> 01:23:41,557
Well, you seem to know all
these fancy words and such.

1558
01:23:41,642 --> 01:23:43,768
Well, that one's
not very difficult.

1559
01:23:48,190 --> 01:23:53,569
Not for you.

1560
01:23:53,654 --> 01:23:57,740
You know all about the high
class life, don't you?

1561
01:23:57,825 --> 01:24:02,620
I... what... like what?

1562
01:24:02,705 --> 01:24:05,998
Like, I don't know,
say for instance what...

1563
01:24:06,083 --> 01:24:10,795
what kind of wine are you
supposed to have with fish?

1564
01:24:10,879 --> 01:24:13,881
No, I don't... white usually.

1565
01:24:13,966 --> 01:24:18,302
That takes a lot of money

1566
01:24:18,387 --> 01:24:20,471
to have so much
culture, don't it?

1567
01:24:20,556 --> 01:24:23,099
To... to enjoy the finer
things in life

1568
01:24:23,183 --> 01:24:25,184
that you love so much.

1569
01:24:25,269 --> 01:24:28,938
The ritzy hotels, first class
flying off to the big cities.

1570
01:24:29,022 --> 01:24:31,065
I mean, it takes a lot of money

1571
01:24:31,150 --> 01:24:32,650
to live that way, don't it?

1572
01:24:32,735 --> 01:24:34,652
No, I... left
to my own devices,

1573
01:24:34,737 --> 01:24:36,612
I would not have been traveling
in such an expensive...

1574
01:24:36,697 --> 01:24:38,990
But left to someone
else's devices, you were!

1575
01:24:39,074 --> 01:24:41,534
And after you killed
Mrs. Nugent,

1576
01:24:41,618 --> 01:24:43,453
you kept on spending
her money, didn't you?

1577
01:24:43,537 --> 01:24:45,455
A lot of it!

1578
01:24:45,539 --> 01:24:47,415
And if you wouldn't
a been caught,

1579
01:24:47,499 --> 01:24:50,001
you'd still be spending
her money today.

1580
01:24:50,085 --> 01:24:51,461
Wouldn't you?

1581
01:24:51,545 --> 01:24:54,714
Wouldn't you?

1582
01:24:58,260 --> 01:25:00,720
Ladies and gentlemen,

1583
01:25:00,804 --> 01:25:03,681
after listening to
all the evidence,

1584
01:25:03,766 --> 01:25:06,058
I'm sure that you will agree

1585
01:25:06,143 --> 01:25:10,980
that the defendant
is a liar, a coward

1586
01:25:11,064 --> 01:25:15,026
and a backshooter.

1587
01:25:15,110 --> 01:25:17,695
Now, come on.

1588
01:25:17,780 --> 01:25:19,572
That's got to be
about the lowest thing

1589
01:25:19,656 --> 01:25:23,576
a man could ever do, ain't it?

1590
01:25:23,660 --> 01:25:26,871
Shoot a little old
lady in the back?

1591
01:25:26,955 --> 01:25:30,458
Four times.

1592
01:25:30,542 --> 01:25:33,085
There is no doubt in my mind

1593
01:25:33,170 --> 01:25:38,090
Bernie Tiede is a
calculating evil actor.

1594
01:25:38,175 --> 01:25:40,635
He fooled a whole town

1595
01:25:40,719 --> 01:25:43,262
for nine months.

1596
01:25:43,347 --> 01:25:45,264
Now if he can do that,

1597
01:25:45,349 --> 01:25:46,849
there ain't no telling
what he'll do

1598
01:25:46,934 --> 01:25:49,060
if you let him
back on the streets.

1599
01:25:53,440 --> 01:25:59,570
That poor woman stayed frozen
stiff for nine whole months.

1600
01:25:59,655 --> 01:26:03,282
I n a freezer.

1601
01:26:03,367 --> 01:26:07,578
It took two days
to thaw her out.

1602
01:26:07,663 --> 01:26:11,666
J ust so they could
perform a proper autopsy.

1603
01:26:11,750 --> 01:26:17,088
No. No, no, no, no, no.

1604
01:26:17,172 --> 01:26:18,714
I'm sorry.

1605
01:26:22,344 --> 01:26:28,057
Your honor, counsel, ladies
and gentlemen of the jury,

1606
01:26:28,141 --> 01:26:31,060
all Danny Buck Davidson
wants to do in this trial

1607
01:26:31,144 --> 01:26:34,897
is get you to believe that
Bernie is some kind of monster.

1608
01:26:34,982 --> 01:26:39,902
That he is something other
than a fellow human being.

1609
01:26:39,987 --> 01:26:41,821
Look at him,
ladies and gentlemen.

1610
01:26:41,905 --> 01:26:45,992
There is not one hint of
premeditation in this case.

1611
01:26:46,076 --> 01:26:49,120
If there was, he'd have
done it a lot differently.

1612
01:26:49,204 --> 01:26:51,330
He mighta gotten away with it.

1613
01:26:51,415 --> 01:26:55,459
Did he try to poison
her slowly? No.

1614
01:26:55,544 --> 01:26:57,628
Did he burn down the house?

1615
01:26:57,713 --> 01:27:01,257
Say it was an
accidental fire? No.

1616
01:27:01,341 --> 01:27:02,842
He still knew he done wrong.

1617
01:27:02,926 --> 01:27:04,385
He knew he was gonna
get found out.

1618
01:27:04,469 --> 01:27:06,178
He just didn't have the courage

1619
01:27:06,263 --> 01:27:08,139
to tell on himself.

1620
01:27:08,223 --> 01:27:10,266
But like a good
funeral director,

1621
01:27:10,350 --> 01:27:15,438
he preserved the body so that
she could have a proper burial.

1622
01:27:15,522 --> 01:27:21,736
And in the meantime he did a lot
of good for a lot of people.

1623
01:27:21,820 --> 01:27:26,908
Till he finally got caught.

1624
01:27:26,992 --> 01:27:31,329
He just doesn't sound like any kind
of monster I've ever heard of.

1625
01:27:31,413 --> 01:27:33,623
Thank you.

1626
01:27:44,134 --> 01:27:47,011
That doesn't excuse
the crime that was committed.

1627
01:27:47,095 --> 01:27:50,097
Now look, everybody's describing
Bernie Tiede as such a great guy.

1628
01:27:50,182 --> 01:27:52,850
"Oh, he's so wonderful.
He's an angel."

1629
01:27:52,935 --> 01:27:54,685
Let me tell you,
he's an angel alright.

1630
01:27:54,770 --> 01:27:58,356
An angel of death.

1631
01:27:58,440 --> 01:27:59,899
Thank you.

1632
01:28:31,682 --> 01:28:39,146
Bernie Tiede, please rise.

1633
01:28:39,231 --> 01:28:42,024
Mr. Foreman, it
is my understanding

1634
01:28:42,109 --> 01:28:44,443
that the jury
has reached a verdict.

1635
01:28:44,528 --> 01:28:47,238
Yes, sir, we have, Your Honor.

1636
01:28:47,322 --> 01:28:49,365
Is it unanimous?

1637
01:28:49,449 --> 01:28:50,866
Yes, sir.

1638
01:28:50,951 --> 01:28:57,123
Would you please
read the verdict?

1639
01:29:00,669 --> 01:29:02,253
We, the jury,

1640
01:29:02,337 --> 01:29:04,880
find the defendant
Bernie Tiede,

1641
01:29:04,965 --> 01:29:07,425
guilty of murder as charged.

1642
01:29:41,418 --> 01:29:43,461
They gave me life.

1643
01:29:43,545 --> 01:29:49,216
I won't even be up for
parole for 50 years.

1644
01:29:49,301 --> 01:29:51,010
I'll be 89 years old.

1645
01:29:53,722 --> 01:29:55,639
Danny Buck, you gotta
hand it to him.

1646
01:29:55,724 --> 01:29:59,393
What he did,
is two groups, you know.

1647
01:29:59,478 --> 01:30:01,979
It was the high-falutin'
first class livin'

1648
01:30:02,064 --> 01:30:04,148
Bernies of the world,

1649
01:30:04,232 --> 01:30:06,275
and then there was
the, you know,

1650
01:30:06,359 --> 01:30:10,571
let's dig a hole in the backyard
and cook something, you know?

1651
01:30:10,655 --> 01:30:15,159
Put another tire on the fire, George.
I'm cold.

1652
01:30:15,243 --> 01:30:17,203
It was just two different
worlds he created there

1653
01:30:17,287 --> 01:30:21,791
and Bernie wasn't
of their world.

1654
01:30:27,923 --> 01:30:29,673
It's not as bad as you think.

1655
01:30:29,758 --> 01:30:34,512
I'm the choir director,
teaching four classes.

1656
01:30:34,596 --> 01:30:37,223
I'm in the craft shop
most of the day.

1657
01:30:37,307 --> 01:30:38,516
I miss my freedom.

1658
01:30:38,600 --> 01:30:40,810
Well, sure you do, hon.

1659
01:30:40,894 --> 01:30:42,520
I'm making the best of it.

1660
01:30:42,604 --> 01:30:44,188
Got a lot to live for.

1661
01:30:44,272 --> 01:30:46,398
You do. You do.

1662
01:30:46,483 --> 01:30:47,817
I wanna help people here.

1663
01:30:49,945 --> 01:30:52,446
Well, I have to tell
you what I've done.

1664
01:30:52,531 --> 01:30:54,448
I wrote the warden a letter.

1665
01:30:54,533 --> 01:30:56,325
Yeah, I did.

1666
01:30:56,409 --> 01:30:58,452
I told him that he had to
give you a work release

1667
01:30:58,537 --> 01:31:00,412
or something like that

1668
01:31:00,497 --> 01:31:02,790
so that you could
sing at my funeral.

1669
01:31:02,874 --> 01:31:05,376
Now, I'm not sick or
anything, but now Bernie,

1670
01:31:05,460 --> 01:31:08,295
you promised me that
you would do that.

1671
01:31:08,380 --> 01:31:11,215
And I totally mean wear
those chains or whatever

1672
01:31:11,299 --> 01:31:13,717
if it made them
feel better so...

1673
01:31:13,802 --> 01:31:16,137
That is awful sweet, Lenora.

1674
01:31:16,221 --> 01:31:19,014
And it would be an honor
but don't count on it.

1675
01:31:19,099 --> 01:31:20,307
I don't think they're letting
me out of here for nothing.

1676
01:31:20,392 --> 01:31:22,518
Oh!

1677
01:31:22,602 --> 01:31:25,062
Sure they will. I told him that
you went temporarily insane.

1678
01:31:25,147 --> 01:31:27,815
And we're all going
insane sooner or later.

1679
01:31:27,899 --> 01:31:30,401
I mean, that's the way
I look at it.

1680
01:31:30,485 --> 01:31:34,905
U h-oh. He's telling
me our time is up.

1681
01:31:34,990 --> 01:31:36,782
I cannot tell you how
much it means to me

1682
01:31:36,867 --> 01:31:38,909
that I'm still in your prayers.

1683
01:31:38,994 --> 01:31:40,494
And that I'll
always be with you.

1684
01:31:40,579 --> 01:31:43,414
Yes. And you know
how much we love you.

1685
01:31:43,498 --> 01:31:45,583
And I will tell you,
I look around here.

1686
01:31:45,667 --> 01:31:47,084
You need to take
care of yourself

1687
01:31:47,169 --> 01:31:48,752
and be real careful
because I think

1688
01:31:48,837 --> 01:31:50,588
this could be
a dangerous place.

1689
01:31:50,672 --> 01:31:52,631
- You think?
- I do.

1690
01:31:52,716 --> 01:31:54,592
And we'll come back
in a couple of weeks.

1691
01:31:54,676 --> 01:31:55,759
Take care. I love you.

1692
01:31:55,844 --> 01:31:59,180
I love you, baby.

1693
01:31:59,264 --> 01:32:00,681
You take care of him.

1694
01:32:08,190 --> 01:32:12,026
I don't care what he did.

1695
01:32:12,110 --> 01:32:14,612
Yes, I do care.

1696
01:32:14,696 --> 01:32:18,032
It was wrong.

1697
01:32:18,116 --> 01:32:23,913
But I believed that if Bernie
were truly sorry for what he did,

1698
01:32:23,997 --> 01:32:26,624
and would ask
God's forgiveness,

1699
01:32:26,708 --> 01:32:31,045
God would forgive him.

1700
01:32:31,129 --> 01:32:37,676
And after all, that's all
that really matters.

1701
01:32:37,761 --> 01:32:40,554
I will miss him.

1702
01:32:40,639 --> 01:32:42,223
All of us will.

1703
01:35:54,082 --> 01:35:55,416
I'll never believe

1704
01:35:55,500 --> 01:35:57,084
till the day God calls me home

1705
01:35:57,168 --> 01:35:59,503
that Bernie Tiede
killed Mrs. Nugent.

1706
01:35:59,587 --> 01:36:01,463
And... and that's
just the way I feel.

1707
01:36:01,548 --> 01:36:03,674
And my husband told me, "Daisy,
when you go up there",

1708
01:36:03,758 --> 01:36:05,968
"you don't change your mind if
you see some of those people"

1709
01:36:06,052 --> 01:36:08,345
"standing out there in the
courthouse that you love,"

1710
01:36:08,430 --> 01:36:10,347
"that's your friends too."

1711
01:36:10,432 --> 01:36:14,518
I said, "Hey, I don't think
Jesus could change my mind."

1712
01:36:14,602 --> 01:36:17,104
That's just the way I
feel from day one.

1713
01:36:17,188 --> 01:36:19,022
And I will always
feel that way.

1714
01:36:19,107 --> 01:36:20,607
Bernie was a good man.

1715
01:36:20,692 --> 01:36:22,234
Bernie had a great heart.

1716
01:36:22,318 --> 01:36:24,653
We need more Bernies
in this world.

1717
01:36:24,737 --> 01:36:27,531
Murderers come along once
in a blue moon over here

1718
01:36:27,615 --> 01:36:30,534
and typically,
they're family related,

1719
01:36:30,618 --> 01:36:32,578
I mean, it's just
how it works out,

1720
01:36:32,662 --> 01:36:34,496
we don't have strange killings,

1721
01:36:34,581 --> 01:36:36,331
it's just some family member
got upset with the other

1722
01:36:36,416 --> 01:36:37,666
and shot him, killed him dead,

1723
01:36:37,750 --> 01:36:39,042
and they know they gonna go

1724
01:36:39,127 --> 01:36:40,711
to penitentiary for a while.

1725
01:36:40,795 --> 01:36:43,172
Now we even have
less murder trials

1726
01:36:43,256 --> 01:36:44,965
'cause most of 'em plead out.

1727
01:36:45,049 --> 01:36:47,384
So this thing
becomes a media circus,

1728
01:36:47,469 --> 01:36:50,262
we got people coming in from
all across the U nited States.

1729
01:36:50,346 --> 01:36:53,724
Old Danny Buck, we caught
him with a stiff neck,

1730
01:36:53,808 --> 01:36:55,809
he... he got kind
of stiff neck,

1731
01:36:55,894 --> 01:36:57,603
kinda get your neck
a little stiff,

1732
01:36:57,687 --> 01:36:59,146
he got a stiff neck, he
was like a pig in shit

1733
01:36:59,230 --> 01:37:01,064
when all this was going up.

1734
01:37:01,149 --> 01:37:04,401
Talking about what
wine to drink with fish,

1735
01:37:04,486 --> 01:37:08,197
I mean, those people drink
warm beer with fried mudcat

1736
01:37:08,281 --> 01:37:10,782
and he's trying to say...

1737
01:37:10,867 --> 01:37:14,661
I took one look at the
jury and I said, U h-oh.

1738
01:37:16,748 --> 01:37:18,790
Scrappy, you ain't
gonna do it, buddy.

1739
01:37:18,875 --> 01:37:20,542
I mean, you ain't gonna do it.

1740
01:37:20,627 --> 01:37:22,544
You don't have enough
equipment to bring

1741
01:37:22,629 --> 01:37:25,422
these people outta their
dang hovels over there.

1742
01:37:25,507 --> 01:37:28,175
Jesus, he's my daddy,
he's my cousin.

1743
01:37:28,259 --> 01:37:30,594
It's like, some of them people

1744
01:37:30,678 --> 01:37:32,554
shouldn't be allowed
out of the county

1745
01:37:32,639 --> 01:37:34,932
and we took the whole damn
trial over there, you know?

1746
01:37:35,016 --> 01:37:37,100
What are they asking for?
I don't get it.

1747
01:37:37,185 --> 01:37:39,228
I don't get the legal system.
