I wash a dead man's brains out of his hair. That is my job.

Surprising event, the one that has shocked me the most. Incredible the things parents do in order to protect a child. This episode happens really quickly. The father and the son are sleeping in the woods near the road when they hear sounds approaching them. Scared the father shakes the kid so he gets up and they start running away from the road. The cart is left hidden and they hide in the woods further up. The man with the gun in his hand hides under the blanket with his son in his arms. They peek from time to time to see if the men are approaching them. I cant avoid thinking back to a conversation mentioned before, when the man is talking to the kids mother. She says that she has to go, they are going to be found and raped, then they will get killed and the man won't be able to protect them. She was wrong. The man a fierce protector guards the child and lets nobody get near. As they peek over the blanket, they find a bad guy very close to them. The man without hesitation takes the gun and points it a him. Asking him questions about their survival and how they keep their truck going. The man is distracted by the boy and the father warns him. Ignoring him, they guy moves forward and with agility takes the kind in his arms with a knife in his neck. As this happens the father shoots killing this man, the boy is now safe from one bad guy, but there are more. They have to run. The father exhausted has carried the little scared boy and puts him in the ground forcing him to walk. Darkness comes and they sleep under a bridge, they make a fire and get cleaned, washing away the dried blood.

As the world is cruel, the little boy can find shelter in his father, that without any doubt would do anything to keep his safe. Killing a man is a strong action that might be punished afterwards. The man full of remorse might act differently and might be scared of continuing making him weaker. He still has to protect his little boy, the only person that has kept him going.
