Yeah.
He never specified.
Are you a friend of his or...?

Look, there's a rock on this necklace.
It's... kind of unusual.
Where did you get this?
You know what it is?
The outside is amber.
As far as the rock
encased in it, the only way to know for sure
is to run tests.
The amber is likely
stabilizing whatever is inside.
Our spectroscopy laser would provide total composition.

When...
When I was about ten years old, I...
was friends with a girl,
a white girl who lived on a ranch
near the reservation where I grew up.
And one day, her uncle and one of his buddies
saw me walking home from school alone.
They pulled over and asked me if I wanted a ride.
And I knew if I got in that truck,
something bad would happen to me.
And so I said no, and I kept walking.
And they came at me, and I fought them off,
and I ran to the woods, and I made it home.
And my parents...
They said they couldn't do anything about it
because white folks don't get charged
for attacking Indian girls on a reservation.
Just doesn't happen.
You never told me that before.
Something inside me was talking,
and I listened.
He did it.
