Friday Night Lights (2006–2011): Season 4, Episode 5 - The Son - full transcript

Give me
my wallet back.

We are at
a crossroads right now.

You are going to cut
the tough-guy crap.

My mother never took me
shopping for a pageant gown.

And because of that,

I never placed
at Miss Texas.

Mrs. Saracen?

It's your dad.

He was killed.

I'm sorry. I'm sorry.

It's late
in the game here at
East Dillon, folks,



and once again,
the Lions are going gently
into that good night.

You understand me?
Yes, sir.

All right?
let's get some points
out of this thing.

Hey, Walter, let's go.

Down 24,
another short game
for East Dillon.

Same old plays, man.
They know what we're gonna do
before we do it.

What do you
want me to do?

let's run wildcat.

No, no, no, Coach said
we ain't ready, man.

I'm ready, all right?

let's go out there
and get some of
our pride back,

some dignity.

All right. he's going to
kick our asses all over the
state. I hope you know that.

Coach can't catch me.
All right.



Hey!

All right, guys.
We're going to go
with right...

No, no, no, new play,
new play, all right?

We're going to go
with Spread Texas A,
Skinny Max, all right?

That's not what
Coach just said.

Olson, shut up. You get
your ass out to X and
make some blocks, all right?

Listen, we're going
option right, all right?
It's on one.

On one. Ready?

Break.

Hut, 38!
Hey, what are you doing?

Oh, look at this.
Coach Taylor's come out
in the Texas Spread...

What are
you doing?

Cafferty to the outside.

What are you doing?
Here we go.
This could be fun, folks.

It's Cafferty on the counter.
He cuts inside.

Oh, wait a second, folks,
a pitch to Vince Howard.

And he smokes the safety!
One man to beat.

Oh, my, what a move!
Howard taking it to
to the barn, folks.

Touchdown, East Dillon.
Touchdown, Dillon!

My goodness,
Vince Howard absolutely
mud-holed the free safety.

Good call, Coach.

54 yards,
the best run from
scrimmage all season

and a hell of a read
from Luke Cafferty.

Come here. Come here.
Who called that play?

We're trying...
Who called the play?

It happened so fast.
Who called the play?

I blacked out, Coach.
Who called the play?

Cafferty, who called...
I Don't know
who called the play.

Who called that play?
I thought you
called it.

Who called the play?
It came
from over here.

Get out there.
let's go.

let's go, kicker!

You want to get
some more of that?

Yeah.

Well, if you want
some more of that,
get the damn ball back.

What are we running?

What do we run?
Four-three.

Four-three?

Seventeen. Red, 17.
Hut.

South Pines
back to pass.

Vince Howard coming off
the edge on the speed rush.

Oh, and he smokes him
on the play inside.

Ball is on the carpet.
Who wants it?

Get there.
Get there.
Get there.

That's ours!
That's ours!

Dallas Tinker
pounces on the ball.

East Dillon has
come up with it.
First down East Dillon.

Come on. Listen up.
Listen up, here.
Listen up.

Hey, I call the play.
Do you understand me?
Yes, sir.

I call the play.
You run the play.

You got that?
I got it.

Wildcat Gun X Throwback.
Do you understand me?

Yes, sir.
But you want me
to throw it?

No, I want you to
stand here and I want
to talk about it all night.

Yes, I want you
to throw it.

I want you to hit him
in stride, you got me?
Yeah.

Hit him in stride.
let's go. let's go.

Here we go.
Here we go.

Watch this.
Make it count.

Here we go, folks.

Vince Howard on the
Wildcat Sweep, going right.

Oh, he pulls up,
looking backside.

He's going deep to Cafferty.
A little trickeration.

He's wide open.
Oh, my, pay dirt!

Touchdown, East Dillon.
Touchdown, Lions.

Real strong finish
to a game that
could not be won, folks.

But a monster game
out of Vince Howard,

and a little light
for a team that's been

stuck in the dark
all season.

Listen up. Hey.

Y'all got nothing
to be ashamed of.

Y'all got nothing
to be ashamed of.
let's hear it.

Hey, listen up, now.
Listen up.

Y'all do me a favor.
Y'all take a knee
real quick.

Most of you know
Matt Saracen. Some of you
know him better than others.

A few of you have
played with him before.

You might have heard that
his father has passed away.

The funeral is going to be
in a couple of days.

Thought it'd be nice
maybe we say a word
for him and his family.

Lands.

Y'all want to
bow your heads?

Our Father
who art in heaven,
hallowed be thy name.

Thy kingdom come.
Thy will be done

on Earth as it is
in heaven...

Hello,
this is First Sergeant
Henry Saracen in Mosul, Iraq.

It's your son.
It's Dad. It's me.

I wish you, Mom,
and you, Matt...

I wish the two of you
a Merry Christmas.

You got company.

Okay.

Bad movie night, Matt.
It's not an option.

Hey.

Hi.

Okay, uh,
Grandma's sleeping,
so keep it down.

I'll make some
popcorn for you.

Thanks.

How was the game?

Uh, it was good.

Twinkletoes over here
kicked two points.

Twinkletoes?

Twinkletoes.
That is not my nickname.

I think it should be.
It's Golden Foot.

I think I like
this one, Matt.

A lot of hands.

Yeah, I guess.

What's this?

Um, It's just
this video that

my dad sent me a couple
of Christmases ago.

Matt, I sent you
something in the mail.

Hopefully, by now,
you got it.

This hat looks dumb.

Fifty bucks.

We're doing
a good job here.

We're going to be
out of here soon.

So, I just
wanted to wish you
a Merry Christmas.

All right, that's good.

That's nice.

Yeah.

What do you all
think of this one?

Is that a hand?

I like it.
It's good.

let's go watch
the movie.

Hello?
Hey, did you read
the paper today?

Paper?

I Don't get a paper, Coach.

Well, you got
your face in the paper

as one of the
co-conference players
of the week.

Picture?

How do I look?

What do you mean how...
You look like an idiot,
That's how you look.

Okay.
Picture looks great.

Yeah, but we still lost.

I understand that.
It means you played
a hell of a game, though.

Listen, what they want
you to do is they want you

to come over for
the pancake breakfast.

It's at 1:00.
They have you speak to,

you know, the little guys,
the Pop Warner kids and
stuff. Can you do that?

Yeah, but why is it called
a breakfast at 1:00?

wouldn't that be
like a lunch?

Son, I Don't know
why they do that.
let's go.

Honey...
That's just what
they call it.

Can you do it, though?
Can you be there then,
right?

I like pancakes.
All right.

Goodbye.
Daddy, we need you
off the phone now.

Hey, Mom,

we ain't got
no electrics,
no nothing.

Mom.

Hey, Mom.

Mom, come on.
Come on.

Come on.

Come on, Mom.

I know.

I think the best thing
she could do right now
is just quit.

I'm serious,
That's just wrong.

Hush.
Why the xylophone?

This whole thing
is confusing.

Shiftless
son of a bitch.

What?

My ex, her dad.

Gonna miss
her singing again.

Always gone somewhere.
He never shows up.

That was wonderful.

Next up in the
Miss Young Texas Pageant,

we have Miss Becky Sproles
of East Dillon.

Miss Sproles
will be singing
the song Popular,

from the musical
The Wicked.

Oh, it's just Wicked.

So, you just
have to know, Matt,

that what your dad did,
what your daddy did
was important.

I mean, right now
I know it seems
real far away,

but we're over there
for a reason and
your daddy knew that.

He was a hero.

Thank you for coming.

And that will
give you strength.

Thank you,
Mr. Garrity.
You remember that.

Yes, sir.
Yes, sir. Excuse me.
I will.

Good to see you.

Matty, you haven't
moved from that chair
in an hour.

I Don't really need to.

Everybody just keeps
coming up to me.

All I got to do is
say "Thank you"

and "Grandma's over there. "

"He stepped on an IED."

How long do
these things go for?

You know what?
Screw you, Bull.

The pageant goes
for another two days.

You know what?
You can still
get here.

I Don't care.
I really Don't care

if you're hauling
pieces of Jesus' cross
back to Bethlehem.

You promised her
you were going
to be here,

and you are
going to be here.

This is so damn
typical of you. You...
Please.

Do you have any idea
what you're doing to
this girl?

Any idea?
She was so
disappointed today.

She sang her heart
out for you. You didn't
hear anything!

That new place
that just opened up
by Steve's...

Excuse me, boys.
Excuse me.

It's the telephone
for you, Tim.

Really?
Mmm-hmm.

Why are you getting
a phone call?
I Don't know.

Hello?

Hey, Tim?

Becky?

Yeah, I know,
I just tried your cell...
No.

...and I tried you
at work...
What are you doing?

...so I figured you must
be at Matt Saracen's.

What are you
doing right now?
I'm at a wake.

You know what a wake is?

Yeah. I just...

I figured that
you weren't close
to the dead guy,

but if you are, I'm sorry,
I'll hang up now.

What's the problem?
What, is the trailer
on fire or what?

No, I just...

I just wanted
to tell you that, um,

thanks for coming today.

It meant a lot to me.

You're welcome.

You did good,
and good luck.

You'll probably win,
so Don't blow it.

You really think so?

All right, I got to go.

Oh, yeah.
Thanks. Bye.

I'll see you around.

Wait, so your job is,
like, to see the bodies home,
or something?

I'm a recruiter mostly
here in West Texas.

But this is an honor job.

So, you didn't even
know my dad?

No. But I do my best to
find out about every man.

Heard he, uh,
was quite the joker
in his unit. Funny guy.

My dad?
Yeah.

Always kept up morale,
did practical jokes and such.

That's important, Matt.

Yeah, no,
I'm sure it is.

But I'm also sure
that wasn't my dad.

I bet he was
a really good soldier
and all that,

but he wasn't a funny guy.
He was not funny ever.

So maybe you talked
to the wrong people,

maybe it was another guy
who was the joker,

but my dad was not,
all right?

I've never even seen
him smile in his life,
so I can't...

Excuse me. Matt,
I think someone's, uh...
Someone's asking for you.

Yeah.
It was good
talking to you.

Yeah, you, too.
Thank you for coming.

You okay?
I Don't know...

I Don't even
understand why
they send this guy.

he's never even seen
my dad before in his life.

I'm sure That's just...
We all know
that he was not...

I know. I know.
... a very funny...

I know. That's why
the Riggins clan
and myself,

we're gonna take you out
of here tomorrow night,

away from all the death
and the dying

and the deviled eggs.

Yeah. Fine.
Whatever. Fine.

I just Don't want...

I just Don't want to talk
about my dad anymore.

Okay.

Hello.
Hey, Matt.

Our condolences, um...

On behalf of
the Boosters...
Are you serious?

Uh, excuse me?

On behalf of the Boosters
and the entire Panther
organization, we just...

What's up, Cafferty?

I'm running, man.

I think he's...
You know, I think he's mad

that I'm co-conference
player of the week.

Yeah, That's what
I'm pissed about.

See this, right here?
Look. Hey, Luke.

That's me.
That's J.D. McCoy,
right there.

But I'm sharing this
with this guy.

I Don't know
who this guy is.
What's his name?

Vince Howard?
You know a guy
by that name?

Yeah, come to
think of it,
I do recall

spending a couple hours
in jail with someone
by that name.

I Don't know how I got there,
considering my friends were
with me at the time.

Kevin, and, wait,
what did you say
your name was?

J.D. McDick?
Is that what it was?

Come on, man.
Look, the cops
were there, okay?

We took off. I'm sorry.

You're a jackass, dude.

Look, what do you
want me to do?

You want me to get out,
get on my hands and knees?

Is that what you
want me to do?
I'll do it.

Look, man, buddy.
We're both sorry,
all right?

But, we're going
paintballing tomorrow night.
We want you to come.

It'll be fun, man.
Come on.
Please?

I'll think about it.
Think about it.

All right.
Well, hey, Luke,
right here, man.

Give it to me.

Luke, we'll
see you around, man.
We'll see you.

See you.
Later, bud.

Julie will
sit here with you.

All right. We'll be
right back, okay?
Thank you, Julie.

You Don't think
she'll get hot in there?

No, she'll be fine,
Julie's with her.

She'll be okay.
Don't you worry,
okay, honey?

All right.

What you've got here
is what we like to call our

American Hero
Memorial Package.

Now, this comes with
your choice of a mahogany
or cherry wood casket,

the standard outer
burial container...

What's that?

Well, over time,
the caskets themselves

deteriorate in the soil,
the moisture.

Oh.

And since Veteran Affairs
will be picking up
most of the bill,

you can honor your father
in a manner he deserves.

Right. Thanks.

So, there's the embalming...

Is...

Is my dad here?

Oh, he's being
prepared right now.

Can I see him?

I think in this case,
a closed casket
is most appropriate.

Right. Right.

Okay. So...

Actually, if That's the case,
can I just ask
one quick question?

Sorry to interrupt.
Sure.

This, uh, viewing,
visitation day,
use of facilities,

use of staff, day prior,

that wouldn't be necessary
if It's closed casket,
is that right?

Of course. You're right.
Okay, so if we can
get rid of those

charges,
that would be great.

We'll just remove
those fees, then. Sure.
Thank you.

Now, see,
the rest is laid out.

This is for the
funeral service escort.

I Don't understand
that either, the funeral
service escort.

What does that
mean, exactly?

Well, those are
the cars that will,

you know,
for the family, friends.

Well, they have cars.
I mean, we all have cars.

Yeah. And, um...
That won't
be necessary.

And my grandma's
in the car right now,
so...

Can we just sign
whatever this is and...

You know what, hon,
why Don't you go on
out there?

I can finish up with him.
I think we're just about
at the end of it anyway.

You go on out.
It's all right.
You sure?

Yeah. I think so.
I think so.
All right.

I'll be... I think there's...
Just one minute.
Thank you.

If you have any questions,
call me.

Yes, sir.

Okay,
I'll be right there.

I need to ask you
a quick question,
with all due respect.

Sure.
Does that boy look like

he can pay $9,000
to bury his father?

Well, Veteran's Affairs
will be picking up...

You look me in the eye,
you tell me Veteran's Affairs

is going to pick up
a $9,000 bill.

Well, no,
not the entire $9,000.
Mmm-hmm.

But they do pick up
a large portion.

Okay, I think let's...

We need to start over
from the beginning,
okay?

And let's do this
quickly, please.

Do you have
another listing
you can give me?

Keep your hands
to yourself, man.

We're looking for old
cars like this.

What is this, man?

Old models,
man, all right?

You see, when they
stop making the cars,
they stop making the parts.

It makes the parts
worth more, you feel me?

Like a bunch of
junk parts in here, man.

You see a new car.

Think It's sharp,
think It's fly,
you need to walk away.

Walk away, why?

Oh,
It's 'cause it got
that LoJack, man.

Man, we in West Texas,
ain't nobody got no LoJack.

You walk away
'cause half them new cars
got them steering locks.

LoJack. Man,
What's wrong with you?

I told him his braids
too tight sometimes.
He Don't listen.

Hey, man, watch out.

"Watch out," what?
"Watch out. "

Yo, yo. Both of you
need to shut up.

This here's school,
and the more you talk,
the more you miss.

The more you miss, the more
likely your bitch asses
are gonna do something stupid.

All right, this place
where you put the keys in,
It's called a tumbler.

You stick your
screwdriver in it,
jiggle it a little bit.

Sometimes,
the dashboard might come on,
sometimes the engine.

Yo, Don't panic,
be cool, and get paid.

Most times,
this ain't an option.
You gotta hotbox the bitch.

Come in closer.
This the magic.

Honey,
we're going to leave
in just a minute, hon.

Yeah.
All right.

Hey.

Hi.

That was really
nice of your mom.
I appreciate it.

she's good in crisis.

she's pretty much
built for crisis.

Yeah.

she's invited you over
for dinner tonight,
if you want to come.

I said you probably have
family stuff to do,

but if you want
to get away for an
hour or something,

I'd love to see you.

Okay.

Okay, you'll come, or...

Um...

Yeah, okay...
Okay, I'll come.

Are you all right?

Yeah, I'm fine.
I just...

You know,
this stuff happens.

Right now,
It's happening to me.

Someday, It's gonna
happen to you, and...

Sorry, I didn't
mean it like that.

That was a stupid thing
to say.

It's okay.

So, what time
is this dinner?

Koala bears.
Do you know
what they eat?

Do you know what
koala bears eat?

And that's more
than enough for a first down.

That makes it six carries
for 38 yards.

I'm not saying this
young man's ready to start,

but Brian "Smash" Williams
is making the most of this...

Look at him run, huh?
Look at him go.

Hey. Look at y'all.

Mommy.

Hi, sweet girl.

Hey.
Hey. How you doing?

Did y'all have fun?

It's almost time
for nappy noodle.
Mmm-hmm.

How'd it go?

It went.
Somebody ready
for a nap?

No, that would be great.
Baby, come here.

Maybe we'll both
lay down together
for a nap.

Here, here,
here, here, here.
Take that with you.

All right.

How's he holding up?

Um...

he's trying.

I'm not going anywhere.

Who's your favorite
football player?

Have you ever
heard of Johnny Unitas?

Mmm-hmm.
Yeah.

My old coach over there
used to tell me
about Johnny Unitas,

that I remind him a lot
of Johnny Unitas.

See that old man
over there in the back,

one of
the oldest guys
in this room?

Yeah.

That's my dad.

He taught me
everything I know.

You got to be fast,
you got to know what
plays you're calling,

you got to look around,
you got to see
everything moving.

When I step
at the line,

I see everything happening
way before it happens.

I'm a good one
or two seconds ahead
of the coverage.

Boy scout is
pretty arrogant.

he's got a hell of
an arm.

All right, be a hero,
win championships.

I see it in you.
All right.

Thank you, J.D.

Now, for our other
Dillon Gazette conference
player of the week,

Vince Howard of
the East Dillon Lions.

Hey, Vincent!

Now, some of
you kids here,

this is your first year
playing Pop Warner,

but guess what?
This is Vince's
first year, too.

So, pay attention,
all right?

You've got
a role model here.

What do you say, Vince?
You got some words
for these players here?

What am I
supposed to say?

Just talk about the game.
Just tell them about it.

Uh... Don't panic,
all right.

Stay cool,
and you get paid.

Yeah.
Yeah.

Stop. Hold on.

Seriously,
get away from me.
One...

Two... Say it.

No regrets.
No regrets.

That feels good.

That was
really close.

Hey, you guys remember
the State finals game
three years ago?

Uh-uh.
No, Billy.

What game?
Who played in it?

Stop messing
with me, man.

Are you really
reminiscing about
three years ago?

You guys, remember,
there was like
ten seconds left

on the clock, and we had
Matt "Mayday" Saracen.

Matt "Mayday" Saracen?

Never has he been
called "Mayday. "
That's not a nickname.

We need to
come up with a nickname.

I like "Cobra. "
That's got a good
sound to it.

Hey, Cobra,
think fast.

You're Cobra.
Dude...

Why would you kill
Cobra's beer?

I Don't know. Hey,
let's see your hands.

You guys know I have
to give a eulogy
at this thing tomorrow?

I got to get up there
in front of everybody

and say good stuff
about this man.

And all I really
want to say is,

"Here lies
Henry Saracen.

"His mother annoyed him,
his wife couldn't stand him,

"and he didn't
want to be a dad,

"so he took off to
be in the army,

"because that was
the only way
you could come up with

"to get out of here
and ditch all
your responsibilities

"and no one could
call you out on it.

"And that worked
out great,

"so you just decided
to enlist four more times

"and that ended up
getting you killed.

"And now,
here you are.

"And all you got left...
All you've left behind

"is a mother
with dementia,
a divorced wife

"and a son
who delivers pizza.

"Thank you for coming,
100 people I do not know. "

You know what
the worst part is?

Even if I did get up there
and say that,

even if I finally did, like,
say all that to him,

I Don't even know
if I'd be saying it to him

because I Don't even know
if he's in that damn box.

It's a closed casket.
For all I know,
It's someone else.

It's someone funny
or a bunch of rocks.
I Don't even...

Well, there's
only one way
to find out that.

Right?

Stop that.

Cobra, you got the key.

Is... Is he
gonna break the window?

there's
probably a doorbell.

It's stuck.
Yeah. Go.

All right,
go ahead.

Are you sure we're
supposed to be doing this?

You're wasted.
Where is he?

Where is he?

Oh, That's where
I saw him before.

Hold on.

All right, hey,
It's this guy.
I'll take care of it.

This is him.
I'm taking
care of it.

Hi.
Hey, Matt.

Hey, my friend here...
Boys...

No. Hey, hold on.
My friend wants to...

No. Wait.

I want to see
my dad.

Well, I thought
we agreed earlier that

that probably wasn't
a very good idea.

Look, he wants to
see his dad.

Hey, hey,
all right, stop.

Stop, stop.
It's his decision if
That's who...

Landry.

Look, I know what
we decided earlier,

but now, I want
to see my dad.

Now.

That's him?
Yeah.

Son, I really Don't think
this is a very good...

No, I appreciate that,
but please,
please just open it.

Okay.

Thank you.

Matt,
you all right?

Thank you.

Hey, Kevin, right here.
All right.

Panthers, baby.
Whoo!

Dude, I thought
we were going to
the field, man. Come on.

We are going to
the field.

We're just getting
a little practice in.

Kevin!
Cut that out, dude!

You're getting paint
on my truck, man.
Come on.

This truck is a piece
of crap anyways,
Don't worry about it.

Yeah, It's a piece of crap
I had to pay for

with my own money,
dumbass.
Hey, yo, yo.

All right, bud.
let's get the
pedestrian right here.

Yeah, I got it.

Get out of the truck!

Hey, yo, relax.
Just chill out.

I am relaxed.
You got some
kind of chip

on your shoulder, man.
I'm fine.

That school you go to
is a dump, okay?

We all know this.
So...

Do you want us to
pretend It's not and
lie about it to you?

Oh, okay, so every time
we get to hang out,

that means
I get to be the one
y'all look down on?

We Don't look
down on you.

We look down on you
with you.

That's right.
That was a good one, man.

All right, jokers.
All right.
That's funny.

What?
Come on, Luke.

Get up.

Hold on, man,

Get out of the truck.
What's your problem

What's my problem?
You're my problem, idiot.

Oh, God.

What are you

You know what,

How does it feel
being second best on
the worst team in Texas?

All right.
You better watch it.

Come on, man.
Luke, I'm sorry.

Oh, yeah.
I'm sorry, too.

You're done, dude.
You're done.

Come on, Luke.
Hey, what are you doing?
Get off my truck.

Get off my truck.

You're kidding!

Screw you, Luke.

Hey.

Hey.

How'd it go?

Second runner-up.

That's...
That's third, right?

Yeah.

And I guess
It's not really...

Third place sucks.
Yeah, It's crap.

Yeah.

So, how was your day?

Weird.

Weird how?

I saw something that...

Rather, I saw someone
see something that...

You ever just feel
completely useless?

You're not useless.

Right.

Close your eyes.

Just do it.

No.

This...
This can't happen.

I can't do this.

Good night.

That's okay.

Oh, we saved you

Thank you.
Thank you.

Mrs. Taylor, I'm sorry,
I know that you...

Oh, you're fine, honey.
We saved you a plate.
Hey, man.

We saved

We'll all have
dessert with you.
You're fine.

Thank you.
Come on, come on,
and sit down.

Don't you worry.
Yeah.

You drive?

No, sir. No.
I had
a nice walk, though.

Well...

You Don't
have to eat it
if you Don't want to.

I'm hungry.

Well, do you want
something else, hon?

You don't...

No, this...

I'm sorry, Mrs. Taylor,
I Don't like carrots.

Oh, well...

And I Don't like when
they touch the meat, so...

Well, I'll just
take it away then.

Don't worry about it.

No, look, I'm sorry.
I'm sorry.

No, no.
You're fine, sweetie.
I'm sorry.

I'm being rude.
I'm sorry. I don't...

Honey, you're fine.

I Don't like being rude.
I Don't like being rude.

It's okay.

I think I'm just
having a moment here.

I'm just
having a moment.

I Don't think
I'm okay.

Matt...

I hate him.

And I Don't like
hating people.

But I just put
all my hate on him,

so I Don't have to
hate anybody else

and so that I can
be a good person,
you know,

to my grandmother,
to my friends,

to your daughter.

That's all I want to say.
I just want to tell him to
his face that I hate him,

but he doesn't> even
have a face.

I'm sorry, Mrs. Taylor,

I'll see you all
tomorrow.

Matt, you Don't have to go.

Julie.
It's all right,
honey.

Matt!

Come here, sweetie.
It's all right.

You're just going to
let him go like that?

I'll get him.
I'll get him.

I'll get him.
He'll be all right.

He'll be all right.
Your dad will
go talk to him, hon.

He'll be all right.

I need to do something.
I know.

I can't just let him
burn like that.

Matt! Matt!

I'm going to
walk you home.

Thank you.

Looks good.
Looks pretty.

Thank you.

His picture.
Look at his picture.

Lead us not into temptation,
but deliver us from evil.

For thine is
the kingdom

and the power
and the glory,

forever and ever.
Amen.

Now, Matt would like
to share some words of
remembrance with us.

Um...

I'm just going
to tell you

one story I remember,
and that'll be it.

We were at

the supermarket.

It was me, my mom,
Grandma,

and my dad.

All four of us,
our whole family.

My dad was
pushing the cart,

and he stopped
and grabbed
some toilet paper

and put it in the cart,
and my grandma said,

"No, that's not
the right one.

"That's not the right
toilet paper that we use. "

And she grabbed
the right toilet paper

and put it in the cart
and stormed off.

And my dad just
kind of stared off at her,

and then he just
started grabbing
all the toilet paper

off the shelf and
putting it in the cart.

I mean, he just
stacked it full.

And it wasn't spiteful
or nothing.

I Don't know,
maybe you had
to be there,

but as a six-year-old,

it was the funniest thing
I'd ever seen in my life.

And I just laughed
about it for weeks.

I guess

my dad was just
a funnier person
than he really let on.

He was kind of
private in that way,

and I Don't
really know why.

But one thing that
he wasn't private about
was the service.

I mean, he was in
the army for 20 years,

and that was something
that he was proud of.

And he missed...

He missed some of
my birthdays,

and he missed a lot of me
growing up.

But I think the point is
that I got to grow up,

that I got to
have those birthdays.

You know,
he went and did a job

that not many people
want to do,

and because of that,
we all get to be here

and we get to grow up
and we get to
have our birthdays.

And I think
That's something
to be proud of.

So, thank you
for being here.

My family thanks you.

If you're looking
out your window

And you say
you're gone

And you're staring
at the ceiling

On behalf of the President
of the United States
and our grateful nation

for the faithful
service rendered
by your loved one.

Thank you.

Remember when
you wake up

Thank you.

Don't forget,
turn out the light

Fire.

Fire.

Fire.

Y'all
are invited now

to the Saracen house
for a reception.

So, we hope to
see you there.

And did you
remember what

And if we go sailing
down the old front

If you're looking
out your window

When you ride away

And you're staring
at the ceiling

To try and get away

You told us to decide
what we want today

But I don't know

And did you
have a thought

Did you remember what

And if we go sailing
down the old front

Forever
