Friend: What’s going on, Joe?
Elderly Man: Look, here’s the deal. My son has and continues to put me, my wife and all of our family through some rough times. That's not hyperbole! I mean, the greatest gift is the ability to forget — uh, to forget.... uh, anyway...
Friend: You’ve got to be kidding!
Elderly Man: Let me be perfectly clear; he's a lying, dog-faced pony soldier.
Friend: So, what are you going to do?
Elderly Man: I’ve decided to pardon him. Not a joke. Look, here's the deal: Everyone deserves a second chance, right?
Friend: Are you sure that’s a good idea?
Elderly Man: Come on, man! We’re all just trying to figure this crazy life out.
Friend: Well, I guess so...
Elderly Man: Let's go, Brandon! I agree.
