YOU REMEMBER WHEN YOU WAS A KID, YOU'D BE PLAYING OUT IN ALL THE DIRTY BUCKETS LIKE A HOG? AND PAPPY'D CALL YOU IN TO WASH UP BECAUSE NANA SPENT THE LAST THREE HOURS CHURNING? THAT WOMAN WOULD CHURN TILL SHE WHIPPED. THE BLOOD FROM HER PALMS, LEGS, AND THE CARAMEL RIBBONS IN THE ICE CREAM. THIS IS THAT. THIS TASTES LIKE THAT. >> OH, THANK YOU. VERY DESCRIPTIVE. >> YOU'RE TRYING TO MAKE A GROWN WEAK, MISS? >> NO, I'M JUST TRYING TO EAT ICE CREAM, SIR. >> WHAT ABOUT YOU, MUTTON. WHAT DID YOU THINK OF THE PEANUT BRITTLE PIE? >> I'LL SAY THIS. REMEMBER WHEN YOU'D BE DOWN BY THE POND ALL DAY, HANDS CUPPED TRYING TO CATCH ONE STUPID LITTLE TADPOLE? IT WOULD MEAN NOTHING TODAY, BUT BACK THEN, HELL, THAT TAD WAS KING CRAB. AND THEN SCOOTER'S MAMA, THE ONE WITH THE PRETTY TEETH AND EYES LIKE BUTTER, WHO'D INVITE YOU INSIDE FOR A BOWL OF ROCKY ROAD. DIDN'T MATTER THE FLAVOR, THOUGH. IT WAS JUST THAT A BEAUTIFUL, MATURE WOMAN HAD OPENED HER DOOR TO YOU. FARMER'S WIFE. BOSOM HEAVY. THIS IS THAT. THIS TASTES LIKE THAT. >> OKAY. TASTES LIKE SCOOTER'S MAMA. WRITING THAT DOWN. >> YOU'VE SEEN THINGS, HAVEN'T YOU? >> NAH. ONLY ICE CREAM, MISS. >> HEY, MAN. I JUST TASTE ICE CREAM. AM I DOING THIS WRONG? >> NO. GUYS, WE'RE NOT REALLY LOOKING TO TASTE MEMORIES OF THE DUST BOWL HERE. >> YOUR ICE CREAM CARRIES A WEIGHT TO IT, SIR. >> SHE'S RIGHT. I CAN TASTE GENERATIONS OF WOMEN IN IT. >> YEAH. WILL NOT BE WRITING THAT DOWN. >> HOW ABOUT THIS ONE. GALACTIC MINT FROST. WHY DON'T YOU ALL GIVE THAT ONE A LITTLE TASTE. >> YEAH. BOBBI, YOU TASTING THAT FRESH MINT IN THERE? >> NO. TASTES MORE LIKE WIND. LIKE THE WIND WHEN YOU HAVEN'T QUITE REACHED 5 FEET TALL. WIND BACK THEN WOULD KNOCK YOU RIGHT INTO YOUR NEIGHBOR. THE ONE THAT HAD LOST HIS WIFE AND DAUGHTER IN THE HOSPITAL FIRE. AND IN YOUR EYES, HE SAW THEM BOTH. SO YOU'D SIT WITH HIM ON THE PORCH WATCHING THE WORLD GO BY. JUST AS THE SUN WENT DOWN, HE'D HAND YOU A BOWL OF CREAM. JUST VANILLA, THOUGH. HE KEPT IT SIMPLE SINCE THE GIRLS HAD DIED. THIS IS THAT. THIS TASTES LIKE THAT. >> GOT IT. SO IT TASTES LIKE A WIDOWER IN PAIN. >> WHO HURT YOU? >> WHY, YOU LOOKING TO SAVE SOMEONE TONIGHT? >> MAYBE. >> EAT YOUR ICE CREAM. >> I'M SORRY, WHAT IS HAPPENING? >> YOU WANT TO KNOW WHAT I TASTE? >> YES, BUT IN LIKE SIX WORDS THIS TIME. >> FINE. REMEMBER THE FOURTH OF JULY -- >> OKAY, PLEASE STOP. >> THE AIR WAS SO THICK WITH SMOKE, YOU COULD BARELY FIND YOUR LITTLE BROTHER'S HAND. DADDY LET YOU BOTH STAY OUT LATE AS LONG AS YOU KEPT YOUR LITTLE BROTHER CLOSE. NEVER DID FIND HIM. WALKED HOME ALONE, WENT STRAIGHT TO THE ICEBOX, SCOOPED OUT SOME CHOC CHIP, NOTHING TOO FANCY ON THE NIGHT YOUR BROTHER DISAPPEARED. THIS IS THAT. THIS TASTES LIKE THAT. >> DAMMIT, I CAN'T TAKE YOUR PAIN AWAY BUT I CAN GIVE IT A BED TO REST IN. LET ME NAP WITH YOUR HURT. >> YOU WANT TO NAP WITH MY HURT? >> I SAID AS MUCH. LET ME NAP WITH YOUR HURT! >> DON'T SAY SOMETHING LIKE THAT, YOU MIGHT JUST END UP TAKING A NAP WITH MY HURT. >> ALL RIGHT! WELL, THANKS FOR COMING OUT, EVERYBODY. >> HEAR ME NOW I WILL ALWAYS COME FOR YOU. >> WHAT TOOK YOU SO LONG?
