"Now when they find The plane," "And they realize The money's gone," "They'll know right off Who took it." "Well, that's" "That's what's cool About it, though." "I mean, we wouldn't Tell somebody" "If we were the ones That did it." "It's not like he said" "That you actually saw A plane going down." "Just you thought you Might've heard one" "With engine trouble." "You want me to Burn the money?" "!" "I am not going To prison over this!"

"We sit on it, We see what happens." "If somebody comes Searching for it," "Then we just burn it And that will be that." "There's no risk." "We'll always be In control." "What about Jacob and lou?" "As long as we're Handling the money" "They have to let us Call the shots." "It seems...crazy" "Just to give it up." "I mean, before we know if Anybody's searching for it." "Tv: 10, 9, 8, 7, 6," "This is it." "It ain't champagne," "But happy new year." "You have to go back and Return some of the money." "What?" "A lot." "Like 500,000." "You see, that way When they find the plane" "They'll assume nobody's Been there yet." "It'll put us beyond Suspicion." "No one would walk away From that much money" "Wait a second." "We're gonna keep The rest?" "You'll have to go In the morning" "So when it storms later It'll cover your tracks." "You can't tell jacob Though." "What, do you think he'd Go back and take it?"

"No engine." "Nothing." "Anything you want To add to that, jacob?" "No." "I can't think Of anything." "That's about it." "It was probably A snowmobile or something." "You know?" "Well, guess That's it, guys." "Thanks for comin'." "My pleasure, carl." "Good to see you, Carl." "Nice to have met you." "I'll talk to you later." "Do you think you could Take us out there?"

"Sarah: there's no way" "It's from the armored Car robbery." "This isn't a guess, Honey." "The guy from the fbi Told me." "[timer dings]" "It doesn't Make sense." "The kidnapping Made sense." "He's looking for a plane Full of money." "I mean, how many of those Can there be around here?" "It was hundred-dollar Bills, hank." "If it was an armored Car robbery," "There'd be other Denominations." "There'd be 50s And 20s and 10s." "Well, congratulations, Sarah." "I guess you know more Than the fbi." "Hank?" "Did he show you His badge?" "Why would he show me His badge?" "Wait." "It's him, isn't it?" "It's the older one-- Vernon." "He's looking For his brother." "I guy i met today Was skinner." "He didn't have A beard." "Well, maybe he lost weight." "Maybe he shaved." "Well, that doesn't make A difference, does it?" "I mean, no matter Who he is," "I still have to take him To the plane." "Well, if we think it's him, You shouldn't go." "Why not?" "Because he's gonna shoot All 3 of you, hank." "As soon as he Sees the plane." "That's why He wants you to go," "So he can get rid Of the witnesses." "But if he's really From the fbi," "And i don't show up," "It's gonna look Suspicious as hell." "I'll call the fbi In the morning." "I'll ask for An agent baxter." "That won't work." "I'm meeting him at 9:00." "They won't be open Before that." "You can stall them For a bit." "And, uh, i'll call From here," "And then i'll call you At carl's office." "And what if there's No agent baxter?" "Then what?" "Well, then you Won't go." "You can tell carl That the baby's sick" "And...and that you Have to come home." "What about jacob?" "Say he's hung over." "Carl would believe that." "Whoever the guy is," "You don't Want jacob there." "It sounds like A b.s. Excuse." "Hank, what do You want?" "Well-- What do you want?" "Do you want to just Walk out there" "And get shot By this guy?" "No, i don't wanna Walk out there" "And get shot!" "Well, i'm trying To come up with a plan." "A plan?" "Like the one" "To take the money Back to the plane," "And we end up Killing stephanson?" "Or maybe the one Where we tape lou," "And 2 more people End up dead." "Is that the sort of plan You're thinking of?" "Well, i've got a plan!" "I'm taking the money Back right now" "All of it." "Hank." "No!"

"Spending the rest of my life, 8 hours a day," "With a fake smile Plastered on my face" "Checking out books." "And then coming home To cook dinner for you" "The same meals Over and over again," "Whatever the week's Coupons will allow." "Only going out To restaurants" "For special occasions" "Birthdays Or anniversaries." "And even then having To watch what we order" "Skipping the appetizer," "Coming home for dessert."
