[young Jenny’s father is chasing her through the fields to beat her when she stops and hides in the corn field]

Young Jenny Curran: Pray with me, Forrest. Pray with me. Dear God, make me a bird so I can fly far, far, far away from here. Dear God, make me a bird so I can fly far… 

Forrest Gump: [voice over] Mama always said God is mysterious. He didn't turn Jenny into a bird that day. Instead, he had the po-lice say Jenny didn't have to stay in that house no more. She was to live with her grandma, just over on Creekmore Avenue, which made me happy, 'cause she was so close. Some nights, Jenny'd sneak out and come on over to my house, just 'cause she said she was scared. Scared of what, I don't know. But I think it was her grandma's dog. He was a mean dog. Anyway, Jenny and me was best friends all the way up through high school.
