Quote context

[...]

- Anyway, when I was 17, I packed my things, said something awful, and left. After a while, I wanted to come home, but I didn't know how. Made it back for the funeral, though.

- What was the awful thing you said to your father?

- Oh. I said I could never respect a man whose hero was a criminal.

- Who was his hero?

- Shoeless Joe Jackson.

- You knew he wasn't a criminal. Then why did you say it?

- I was 17.

- The son of a bitch died before I could take it back. Before I could tell him, you know.

- He never met my wife. He never saw his granddaughter.

- This is your penance.

- I know.

- I can't bring my father back.

- So the least you can do is bring back his hero.

- Well... Now I know what everybody's purpose here is, except mine.

- Daddy!

- Karin, come here.
