James: So, how long you been living in my aunt's house?
Simon Kirby: Couple months. Sometimes we crash with friends, sometimes we just camp out in the woods.
James: Where are your parents?
Simon: Haven't seen my dad since I was... five? My mom got busted last winter stealing a space heater from the hardware store. The judge wouldn't even give her a chance to explain. They gave her ten years for stealing a 30-buck heater.
James: Since when does petty theft get you that kind of time?
Simon: It's a racket. The cops, judges, lawyers, everyone's in on it. They keep the prison full, the prison keeps their pockets lined.
James: How's nobody stood up against them? Called these guys out?
Simon: Like who? Nobody's gonna speak up and risk themselves. Anyways, you can't beat the system, so what's the point?
James: There is a point, Simon. You have to stand up and fight against injustice.
Simon: Everyone's just out for their own skin. It's the way it is.
James: Not on my watch.
