What happens

27:39–30:09

Michael takes Dukie into the woods for shooting practice. Dukie is unable to use an automatic handgun. Michael gives Dukie a revolver and asks him to think of it as a tool. Dukie misses the target and is frightened by the noise. Michael tells Dukie that learning to use a gun will not protect him – it will just force him to use the gun. Michael reminds Dukie that he is smart and has other skills.
