But then Nat’s father goes full groid, taking the patrolman’s gun and shooting one of the mounted ones in the head. He then flees into the woods and back to his family’s shack on the plantation, with just enough time to give them food he has stolen from somewhere—which they stow under the floorboards—before he flees the shack never to return. Truly father of the year. Immediately afterward, the surviving patrolmen reach the shack and demand answers from his family, who insist that they know nuffin 'bout where he at. Criminal activity is fine because we wuz slaves, and the police have always been out to get us.
