Dialogue
Robert Grainier: You told Adrien that these tents are from the Civil War? Arn Peeples: That's right. Union infantry. After that, they went to the US Cavalry for the Indian campaigns. These old things have served longer than the people they sheltered. Rough canvas, but they'll probably be here long after we're gone. Robert Grainier: Hmmm. Arn Peeples: What's keeping you awake over there? Robert Grainier: Oh, uh... Arn, do you... do you think that... the bad things that we do follow us through life? Arn Peeples: I don't know. I've seen bad men raised up and good men brought to their knees. I reckon if I could figure it out, I'd be sleeping next to someone a lot better-looking than you.
