1940.
A couple of big boys ride up to see the little boys playing marbles; the big boys are Burt and Nick.
The little boys (4 years and 3 years younger, and are brothers) are Ralph and Timmy.
(Nick) - "Well, well, well, what have we hear? Two stupid little babies playing with their stupid baby marbles!"
(Burt) - "I say we take the marbles and beat the stuffin' out of 'em!"
(Ralph) - "Nick, Burt, please don't hurt us...we're in front of my house, and my Pop will come out and tear you a new..."
(Nick) - "Nice try, weakling! I saw your Mom and Pop drive off to the store - they won't be back for hours!"
(Ralph) - "#$%#!"
(Burt) - "LET'S GIT 'EM!"
<Burt and Nick start punching away on the two younger, smaller boys; little Timmy is knocked out quickly, but poor Ralph stays awake as Burt and Nick gang up on him, breaking his glasses and repeatedly slamming his head into the tree in his front yard, painting it, blow after blow, with Ralph's blood, over and over again while the bark and tooth chips fly...>
(Nick) - "Hey, let's throw 'em over the fence into old Simpson's back yard and let his killer German Shepherds polish 'em off!"
<Timmy is thrown over first, and screaming is heard as the dogs tear into him>
(Burt) - "Now it's this little sissie's turn!"
(Ralph) - "NOOOOO!!!!! Please, don't!!!!"
<Burt and Nick throw Ralph over, and sprint away as they hear his screaming; Ralph sees one of the dogs dining upon his little brother's lifeless body; Ralph uses all his strength to bust through the back window of the Simpsons' house, and then bolts out the front door, only to see his parents drive up. He tells his father what happened, at which point his father starts slapping Ralph full force on each side of the head, repeatedly, and chastises him for not defeating the two bullies (who were much older than he was, and much bigger), and then berates him for "trespassing", etc. Ralph sees the Police car pull up, he tells them what happened, and how the bullies threw he and his brother into the yard full of dogs which then killed his little brother, but the Police are only interested in Ralph's "crime" of trespassing and destruction of property.
Ralph runs upstairs, packs some things, and jumps out of the 2nd storey window and heads for the railroad yard, to jump a train and never come back.
12 years later, Ralph is back, grown and combat-hardened from Korea; he sees the lights of his house, and then notices, at the old Simpson place, that Nick now lives there, with his wife and child; the face is unmistakable after all these years, and the surname is on the mailbox; no mistake, this is Nick, one of the bullies that was responsible for the death of Ralph's little brother, Timmy; Ralph approaches Nick as he heads for his mailbox...>
(Ralph) - "Hey, NICK!"
(Nick) - "Uh...yeah, I'm Nick Finnerty....and just who might you be, mac?"
(Ralph) - "I'm Ralph Wilson - I grew up here...rememer?
(Nick) - "Oh, yeah...I remember you..."
(Ralph) - "I'm sure you do..."
(Nick) - "...Uh, yeah, so....cold night, huh?"
(Ralph) - "Not as cold as Chosin."
(Nick) - "How's that?"
(Ralph) - "Chosin Reservoir. Korea. I was in the Marines, we had a little bit of a rough time there."
(Nick) - "Oh, yeah, right...Marines. That's the branch I would have chosen if I wasn't 4-F."
(Ralph) - "Lemme guess - it was your belly, right?"
(Nick) - "Come again?"
(Ralph) - "Your belly. It was too yellow for active duty service to your country, right?"
(Nick) - "Heyy, I don't like what you're insinuatin' - I have a spinal problem, a doctor confirmed it..."
(Ralph) - "Right, your spine, gotcha. Like a jellyfish, right?"
(Nick) - "Hey, mac, if you've come lookin' for trouble, you've come to the right place!"
(Ralph) - "You killed my brother."
(Nick) - "No. No, it was the dogs....
(Ralph) - "You threw us to them, that makes you responsible...and you deserve the same fate, so that's what I'm gonna do right now..."
(Nick) - "....I don't see no dogs around here..."
(Ralph) - "Just one. Me. This Devil Dog's gonna finish you off..."
<Raph grabs Nick by the back of the neck, and repeatedly slams his face into the very same tree that Nick had slammed *his* face into back in 1940...over and over and over, until his face resembled ground beef. Nick was dead. Timmy was avenged. Ralph's parents walked out into the front yard to see what all the noise was about, only to see a ghastly, bloody scene in the snow...>
(Dad) - "Ralph?"
(Mom) - "Ralph?"
(Ralph) - "You lived next door to the murderer of your youngest son, my only brother....and you did nothing. Nothing."
(Dad) - "He....he was under 18 when it happened. A minor. He served a little time in juvenile hall, but that was all the system could do."
(Mom) "I hear sirens. Ralph, honey...you'd better get out of here."
(Ralph) - "No, ma...I think I'll stay. It'll take them a few minutes to arrive...in the meantime, I can wait inside with you. Is that meatloaf I smell?"
