Pappy:
It sounded t'me like he harbored some kinda hateful grudge against the Soggy Bottom Boys, on account of their rough and rowdy past.
[boos]
Pappy:
Sounds like Homer Stokes is the kind of fella who wants to cast the first stone. Well, I'm with you folks. I'm a forgive 'n' forget Christian, and I say, if their rambunctiousness, and misdemeanorin' is behind them... [turns away from the mike, towards Everett] It is, ain't it, boys?
Everett:
Uh, yes sir, it is.
Pappy:
Well, then I say, by the power vested in me, these boys is hereby pardoned! And furthermore, in the second Pappy O'Daniel administration, why, these boys is gonna be my brain trust!
Delmar:
What's that mean, Everett?
Everett:
Well, Delmar, you, me, Pete, and Tommy are gonna be the power behind the throne, so to speak.
Delmar:
Oh, okay.
Pappy:
So without further ado, and by way of endorsin' my candidacy, the Soggy Bottom Boys is gonna lead us all in a chorus of "You Are My Sunshine."
[Applause. Pappy turns away from the mike, towards Everett]
Pappy:
Ain't you, boys?
Everett:
Governor, it's one of our favorites.
Pappy:
Son... you're gonna go far.
