At that moment, the Gate Guard’s son walks up into the scene.
(Gate Guard’s son) If you’re going to report it, do it right. We are sick
of old customs and traditions that are outdated and only help to keep the
old men in control. (CNN Reporter) So, is it safe to say that most of
your people are for this sale? (Gate Guard’s son) Look around. We have
been paid. We didn’t give away our land. America, get this right because
I’ll only say this once. At last the Japanese compensated us for our land.
(CNN Reporter) As you can see the tension’s starting to mount. Word
was just passed that all non-Indian residents must leave the reservation
right now. I’m going to try to confirm this.
At that moment, Longstand, Ben, Tracey and Blackfoot pull up.
(CNN Reporter) I think this is Blackfoot Begay, the man who reportedly
sold the reservation.
The crew of CNN approached the jeep.
(CNN Reporter) Blackfoot, is it true that you sold out your people’s land.
(Longstand) “NO”! We will release a full statement as to this betrayal
once we have completed our meeting with the council. (CNN Reporter)
Betrayal? Does this mean the sale was illegal? (Ben) That’s the problem
with reporters. You never can be told anything in a nice way. It always
has to be rude. Now move the fuck back.
At that moment, the council and the reservation police came up and
had the cameras shut off and had everyone removed from the area.
Switch to Yoshi landing in Japan with a group of the investors and
Mr. Goza greeting him.
(The Group) Yoshi, Yoshi, Yoshi!
Yoshi bows and walks up to the group.
