"Whoo!" "I can't miss." "You got to get yourself one of these, buddy." "Let me see that son of a bitch." "I'll tell you, those fuckin' Germans, boy, they know how to make a fuckin' gun, don't they?" "It's Italian." "Yeah, whatever." "Finish your beer and hang it up." "I feel hot." "I got an easy shot for you." "Christ, you know better than to point that thing at me!" "I hear you been sleepin' with my wife." "Who told you that?" "Amanda!" "Amanda?" "That's right." "Now, why would she say something like that?" "What?" "I want to know." "I don't think that matters right now, Clay." "Oh, I don't believe she told you, man." "Well, she did!" "In great detail, Mr. like-to-do-it-from-behind." "Yo, Earl, this is fuckin' crazy." "I don't know what Amanda's been telling you or why." "I don't think you appreciate the seriousness of this conversation!" "Goddamn it!" "Now..." "Come on, Earl." "You're not gonna shoot me." "No?" "!" "Now, I know you, buddy." "You can't kill a deer, so just..." "Put the gun down." "Just..." "Put it down." "You're right." "The fact is..." "You're gonna shoot me." "Now I'm a little confused." "I can't stop thinking about it, Clay!" "Ever since she told me!" "She was a virgin when we was married." "I remember her being a little wild in high school." "You're straying'!" "Now pick up the gun!" "You know, you're making way too much of this." "And, I mean, we're both a little too fuckin' drunk." "Let's sober up a little." "This is so out of fuckin' control, don't you think?" "I can't have the whole goddamn town knowing' what happened!" "And it ain't easy for me, you being my best friend, but you will pay, you son of a bitch." "Not with your life, but you're gonna do some time, that's for sure." "Now, Earl..." "You're... you're a little out of it right now." "Yeah, you think so?" "You're a little out of your mind." "Right now, yes, you're a little fuckin' crazy." "Oh, yeah, crazy?" "Crazy enough to tell people we was coming up here shooting today?" "Crazy enough to tell Amanda that me and you was gonna have it out over this here very issue?" "Crazy enough to bring both of the trucks up here?" "'Cause it'll be one thing to hide my body." "It's gonna be another thing gettin' both these trucks out of here." "I thought it all out, Clay." "Now, be a man and pick up the gun." "Earl, I'm not gonna pick up the gun." "Earl." "Good luck explaining me dying with a bullet from your gun." "Put the gun down." "I bet you don't think I got the nerve, do ya?" "You got the nerve, you got the fuckin' nerve, but you're scaring the shit out of me." "Jesus Christ!" "Aah!" "Earl, put the fucking gun down!" "That would rule out the suicide angle, lover boy!" "It's not worth it!" "She doesn't mean shit to me!" "I don't fucking care about her!" "Don't fucking do this!" "No!" "What are you doing?" "!" "She's not worth it!" "She's not fucking worth it!" "I got a timebomb" "In my mind, mom" "I hear it tickin'" "But I don't know why" "I called the police" "But they don't like me" "I hear 'em whisperin'" "When I walk by" "Ah" "Ah" "Ooh" "Ooh" "I got a land mine" "In my bloodline" "I'm not immune" "To gettin' blown apart" "She'd like a claymore" "?" "That's what she's there for?" "She's waitin' around here" "To get blown apart" "Ah" "Ah" "Have you heard all my brains" "?" "Are gettin' hit by a train" "She's gonna kill me" "Oh, Celeste" "Oh, Celeste" "Oh, Celeste" "Crazy son of a bitch." "There's more." "What do you mean, there's more, hmm?" "How can there be more?" "You're not gonna believe this, but, um..." "He set it up to make it look like I did it." "And why the hell would he do that, hmm?" "Because of you and me." "You can leave me out of this." "Leave you out of this?" "Amanda, I need your help." "That's the only way anybody will believe me." "I said leave me out of it." "Don't do this to me, not now." "Look, I want nothing to do with it, all right?" "I can't have people all over town talking about us." "Christ, Amanda, because of us, Earl... look, the crazy motherfucker got what he wanted, it sounds like to me." "Now, I'm sorry, Clay, and, uh..." "I do hope it turns out all right and all that, but as far as I'm concerned," "I didn't see you today or any other day." "I'll still tell them." "Go ahead." "I'll just deny it." "I mean, uh, who are they gonna believe, hmm?" "You or the widow?" "Holy smoke, land sakes alive!" "I never thought this could happen to me" "Ah-ha-hmm" "Yeah" "Ah-ha-hmm" "Yeah" "I got stung by a sweet honeybee" "Oh, what a feelin' come over me" "It started in my eyes, crept up to my head" "Flew to my heart till I was stung dead" "I'm done, uh-huh" "I got stung" "Ah-ha-hmm" "Yeah" "Ah-ha-hmm" "Yeah" "She had all that I wanted and more" "And I've seen honeybees before" "She started buzzing' in my ear , buzzing' in my brain" "Got stung all over, but I feel no pain" "I'm done, uh-huh" "I got stung" "Now, don't think I'm complainin'" "I'm mighty pleased we met" "'Cause you gimme one little peck" "On the back of my neck" "And I break out in a cold, cold sweat" "If I live to a hundred and two" "I won't let nobody sting me but you" "I'll be buzzin'..." "Oh, God-fuckin'-damn it." "You want to get that, Barney?" "Barney!" "Sheriff's station." "Mooney here." "It's all burnt to hell." "Get around the other side of that thing." "He went off..." "Right over there?" "Yeah, over there." "Tell me the truth, Clay." "Was he drinking?" "Mooney, it's Sunday." "Yeah." "You ever know Earl to be sober on a Sunday?" "Whoo!" "There ain't a whole hell of a lot left." "Want me to call the coroner?" "He's in Wyoming, fishing." "Well, we got to call somebody." "To tell us what?" "I always knew that drunken son of a bitch was gonna kill himself one day." "And I will dwell in the house of the lord forever." "Ashes to ashes." "Dust to dust." "How about getting me one, cowboy?" "Where's your car?" "In the garage." "Gotta keep up appearances, baby." "What are you doing here?" "What do you mean?" "It's Wednesday." "So what?" "So, we always do it on Wednesday." "You can't be serious." "Why not?" "Amanda, the body isn't even cold yet." "Yeah, well, it got too hot to ever get cold." "You saw to that, didn't you, cowboy?" "Shut up." "Mmm..." "I'm just teasing you, baby." "I must say you impressed me, though." "It was pretty slick the way you handled that." "Yeah, well, I wouldn't have had to if you'd just told the fucking truth." "Mmm, now, don't start." "I just..." "Didn't know what to do." "I figured it would be better if you did the thinking for both of us." "Now, come on." "Kick off those boots and come to mama." "What is wrong with you?" "What do you mean what the fuck is wrong with me?" "He's dead!" "We don't have to sneak around." "We can do whatever the fuck we want." "Do you not get it?" "Earl killed himself over you." "So what?" "He was crazy." "I mean it." "You will be too if you try and make anything more out of it than that." "Now..." "Come on." "Come on." "We can use the video camera." "Come on." "You know..." "We are not just going to pick up where we left off." "I mean, people would talk." "And I know how you hate that." "Fine." "But I ain't waiting' long, Clay." "Fucking more." "This town ain't exactly blessed with eligible fucking bachelors." "We never made any plans, you and I. Never." "Yeah." "Maybe not." "But there's a bond between us." "Earl saw to that." "Zip me." "Hey, slick." "Oh, hey, Glen." "How about a game?" "I don't know." "Come on, man." "I got no competition here." "You want some competition?" "I want some competition." "All right." "Too good." "Well, it was an easy shot." "You drinking' bud, right?" "You know it." "Ever do it on a pool table?" "What are you doing here?" "You aren't still sore, are you?" "Hmm?" "Mmm, let's just, uh, start fresh." "We're not starting anything." "You don't mean that." "Excuse me." "You're forgetting how..." "Goodi can make you feel." "Keep your hands off me." "Ooh, someone's touchy, hmm?" "It's been a while, hasn't it?" "Since you done it with a..." "Real woman." "And I know all the buttons to push, don't I, cowboy?" "Hmm?" "Damn it." "Amanda..." "Why can't you just leave me alone?" "You made a big mistake, cowboy." "Amanda." "Fuck you!" "Is this table open?" "Don't hit me or nothin'." "Just want to play pool." "That was a nice break." "Guess you're solids, and you're gonna stay solids." "Nice shot." "I knew a guy growing up named stuff." "They called him that because he put so much stuff on the ball." "Oh, yeah." "Shooter's right." "A lot of people start off hot, and then I'm kind of the fireman." "I cool 'em down a little bit." "Good shot." "When you're done, maybe I'll just shoot mine out, just for the fun of it." "You know what I mean?" "Just kind of see how I do." "Last shot right here." "For the game." "Whoo!" "Man!" "You're a fuckin' shark, you are." "Well, I've put enough damn quarters in this table," "I should be." "Goddamn right, I guess." "Well, how about I buy you a beer, man?" "Not gonna say no." "All right." "I didn't catch your name or anything." "Clay." "I'm Lester long." "Good to meet you." "Lester the molester." "Ha ha ha." "Couple of beers comin' up." "Sharpshooter." "Let me tell ya..." "It was 2 feet long if it was an inch." "Goddamn." "And still I had to throw the damn thing back." "Tell me, what the hell's the point of that?" "Personally, I never went for all that catch-and-release bullshit." "You know what I mean?" "They got all this fuckin' fancy equipment nowadays, but what the fuck is it worth if you can't fuckin' keep it?" "Why don't you just smoke a filterless cigarette?" "I like it this way." "So you get out much?" "Yeah, all the time, man." "I've been fishin' since I was 3 years old." "3 years old." "I love it." "I love fishing'." "I guess there's no wedding bells in the future for you and that little miss that walked in here tonight." "No." "Come on, the night was so good." "Let's not talk about her." "I got to tell you, man, she looked pretty fine to me." "I had my eye on her the minute she walked in." "Well, you're new in town." "You don't know any better." "Let me tell you something." "Take my advice." "Steer clear of Amanda." "I'll tell you one thing, though, you sure handled her right, man." "Goddamn it." "I shouldn't have hit her." "Well, you got your point across, didn't you?" "Come on." "To your health." "Well, I'm all out, but, uh, what the hell." "Thanks." "Sure took you long enough to ask." "I guess I haven't been getting out much lately." "Oh." "I forgot about Earl." "That was real sad." "Yeah." "You know, Amanda sure seems to be taking it well." "What do you mean?" "You should see her." "She walks around town like nothing happened." "I just suppose..." "Different people handle things in different ways." "Thanks." "I don't like to talk bad about people, but I just never understood how Earl could have married a bitch like that." "Didn't anybody ever tell you about personal space?" "Why won't you answer my calls, Clay, hmm?" "People need a certain amount of room to feel comfortable." "It's been 2 weeks, baby, 2 weeks, and that's just too long." "I heard in other countries people don't need so much space." "Will you shut up for a second, hmm?" "That may be ok..." "I said shut up, Clay." "But right now, I'm not gettin' enough room." "I'll see you later, Gloria, ok?" "You come back here, Clay." "I said come back here, Clay!" "Mmm" "Mmm-mmm mmm" "The lights" "In the harbor" "Bum bum bum" "Don't shine for me" "Bum bum bum bum" "I'm like a lost ship" "Bum bum bum" "Adrift on the sea" "Eee, sea of heartbreak" "Lost love, loneliness" "?" "Memories of your caress?" "So divine" "I wish you could be mine..." "Call me a bitch." "Oh, yeah, that's rich, Clay." "You're gonna pay for this, you bitch." "Mm-hmm." "Well, you do what you got to do, baby." "Let's see, just how should this go, hmm?" "Well, gosh, sheriff, I know he loved me, and..." "Sure, I mean, he talked about killing Earl, but..." "I just never dreamed he'd go through with it, you know?" "And I... 911, Clay." "How hard can it be?" "Come on." "It's better this way." "You know?" "I mean, it's like..." "You know somethin', and, uh..." "I know somethin'." "I'll see you Wednesday." "You should take a shower." "I can still smell her on you." "Gotta check the distributor." "Key off?" "Yeah." "I'll get it." "Hello." "Mark's." "Hold on." "It's for you." "Damn, this is pretty country." "Man, I can't understand why the hell you didn't want to come up here." "It's gorgeous." "Hey, buddy!" "Yeah." "What?" "I was just saying how pretty it is up here." "I've only been here a couple times, Clay, but this has got to be one of my favorite places in the whole state right here." "Absolutely gorgeous." "Yeah, well, it's no damn good for fishing, though." "They quit stocking it." "That's why no one comes here anymore." "Except for you and me." "Tell you what, I pulled a 5-pound striper outta here less than a month ago." "Just makes it more of a challenge, that's all." "Put a little motion in your cast there." "You know what I mean?" "What's that for?" "What's that?" "The ear." "Oh, this here?" "Oh, nothin'." "Just bleeds once in a while, that's all." "I feel a nibble right now." "Look at that." "Nibbles all day." "Come on, man." "There's biting fish out there." "Like a game of chess." "Jesus Christ, Clay!" "Light a match or something." "That's not decent in a boat like... well, fuck me!" "Man overboard!" "Oh, my God." "Man overboard!" "Alarm!" "What is that?" "That's a person, Clay." "I think that's a dead person." "I can see it's a fucking dead person." "What do we do?" "I don't know." "This is a new situation for me." "But I guess the right thing to do would be to bring it ashore." "No, wait." "Wait a goddamn minute." "Now, don't you think we should report it first?" "That's standard procedure." "Yeah, but we're a long way from a phone, man." "I don't think anybody would want us touching her." "Evidence." "Her?" "Her?" "Her?" "I'm not even sure that damn thing's a woman." "Of course it's a woman." "It's got long hair." "Could be a rock star." "We don't fuckin' know what it is, do we?" "Don't make it like I'm dumb." "Ok, but I still think we ought to report it first." "Listen, let me tell you something." "Let's say we go and we get some people, and then we come back here, right?" "And then we don't find it again." "Ok." "And how do you propose that we bring it in?" "Let's sink a line in it." "We'll tow it in." "This isn't a goddamn joke." "I'm serious." "Get your pole." "It's a human being, for Christ's sake." "It's awful gamey." "It's not right!" "You can't put a fucking... ok, ok, shut your mouth!" "You'll scare all the fish away." "The fun's gone." "Just take your oars." "Let's get this over with." "Ok, we got her." "Oh, man, it gets uglier and uglier!" "I love the open water, man!" "Ooh-wee, what a powerful smell." "I thought I was you for a little bit." "I grew up next to a slaughterhouse, man, but, damn, it never smelled that bad." "Now wonder them damn fish weren't biting." "Can I ask you something?" "Shoot." "Well, seems like we got a long day ahead of us." "We gotta go see the sheriff, then back to the lake, then answer a bunch of questions." "Yeah?" "Well, I'm due in billings this afternoon, and truth be told," "I'm not in real good graces with my boss." "If I'm late again, actually, I could be out of a job." "We gotta report this thing." "Oh, I know that." "I know that." "I was just wondering maybe you could do it yourself." "Leave me out of it." "Do what?" "You know, just say you went fishing alone maybe." "I think we both ought to be there, Lester." "Hell, it ain't like I saw anything you didn't see." "Lookit, you were fishing." "Body washes up." "End of deposition." "I don't like taking chances when it comes to the law." "You're not doing anything wrong." "You're just reporting what you saw." "You trust me." "Ohh." "I appreciate it, Clay." "Yeah, well, can't have you losing your job." "Right on, man, right on." "And I won't forget this, either." "All right." "We'll see you now." "Hey, Clay!" "What do I say if someone asks if I caught anything?" "Howdy, boys." "You were out in the middle there." "Yeah." "Just over there." "Man puts a body in a lake..." "The idea is to keep it at the bottom." "Gimme one of those." "How's Amanda holding up?" "Don't know." "Haven't seen her around much to tell the truth." "You should check in on her." "She always liked you." "I'll do that." "Is... is there anything else?" "No." "Go home." "Promise me something, though, will ya?" "What's that?" "Promise you'll stop finding dead people." "Clay!" "Yeah?" "When you're done there, come on over." "I want to talk to you." "Ok." "I understand you went out with Gloria Collins last week." "Yeah." "We went out." "Saw a movie." "Hung out a little." "What did you do after that?" "That's kind of personal, mooney." "Answer the question." "After this, uh, wonderful movie, we went to my place, and, you know, fooled around a little." "Did she stay the night?" "No." "She left around, uh, 2:00 or so." "And that was the last you heard from her?" "Yeah." "Why didn't you tell me about that?" "Tell you what?" "You knew she was missing, didn't you?" "Yeah." "I..." "I don't know." "I just wasn't thinking." "I didn't know what I knew would help you out at all." "Next time..." "You let me be the judge of that." "All right." "That's all for now." "See you later." "Oh, Clay?" "About that business at the lake..." "What?" "You know, we still haven't got an ID on her." "Did you get a very good look at her?" "Not really, no." "All we really know for sure is she was stabbed to death." "7 times." "Stabbed, huh?" "Hi, Clay." "You talking to mooney?" "I'm sorry, but this really isn't a good time, ok?" "Bullshit." "He knows Gloria and I were together that night." "Now, he must have heard it from you." "Got any beer?" "I got company, cowboy." "Hey, Clay!" "How are you, man?" "Lester?" "Do you know each other?" "Yeah." "Me and Clay are fishing buddies." "I thought you were in billings." "I was in billings, but just came back..." "I hate to break this up." "Easy there, vixen." "We'll talk tomorrow." "Hey, Clay!" "Hey, Clay." "Hey." "You don't mind about that or nothing, do you?" "No." "Hell, no, I..." "I felt a little bit, but you're ok with it?" "Hell, I figured I was probably doing you a favor." "You know, smooth out the pavement a little bit." "How'd you hook up with her anyway?" "Oh, I went over to that doc holiday's looking for a little bit of the shush, the bad, and there she was, you know?" "Just..." ""I'm sorry your dad treated you like that." "That's awful."" "Next thing I know, here we are." "Besides, she really ain't that bad a piece of ass, after all." "I mean, she's..." "Are you coming?" "Oh, I'm sorry." "Uh, duty calls." "Duty calls, but I'll talk to you very soon, man." "Very soon." "All right." "Very soon." "Very soon." "Very soon." "Oh." "Damn it." "Clay?" "She sure falls out of love in a hurry, doesn't she?" "Well, see you." "All right, vixen." "Here's daddy." "Did you see anything interesting, girl?" "So, what were you two talking about?" "Hmm?" "Well, miss Amanda, if I would have wanted you to know," "I would have invited you outside to join in the conversation." "Well, stay away from him, ok?" "And don't believe a fucking thing he tells you." "Who, Clay?" "Are you fucking laughing at me?" "You don't know him like I do, ok?" "Darling, I'm telling you, he's a hell of a nice guy." "Yeah." "You really don't know him." "I don't want to know him like you do, girl." "Ha ha!" "Trust me, baby." "He's bad news." "What am I doing here?" "Ohh." "Ooh, ooh, ooh" "Ooh" "Ooh, ooh" "Ooh" "It's now or never" "Come hold me tight" "Kiss me, my darling" "Be mine tonight" "Tomorrow" "Come on, cowboy!" "Will be too late" "It's now or never" "My love won't wait" "When I first saw you" "With your smile so tender" "My heart was captured" "What happened to you, huh?" "My soul surrendered" "Cut myself getting the bottle open." "You want something for it, baby?" "No, darling, it's just a Nick." "Waiting for the right time" "Now that you're near" "So, what do you say?" "Third time's a charm?" "At last" "Ha ha!" "Well, my mama always told me keep trying until you get it right." "Mmm." "Mmm." "Kiss me, my darling" "I think I like your mama." "Why don't you turn over?" "Tomorrow" "There she goes." "Will be too late" "It's now or never" "Mmm..." "My love won't wait" "Ohh." "Just like a willow" "Let your arms invite me" "Here comes daddy right now." "For who knows when" "We'll meet again" "This way" "It's now or never" "I don't think this is legal in this county, cowboy." "Ohh." "Boy, that's a bad girl." "Ha ha!" "Kiss me, my darling" "Oh..." "My." "Mmm..." "Tomorrow" "How's that, girl?" "Oh, yeah." "Ohh." "You feel good." "Ohh." "It's now or never" "You like that?" "My love won't wait" "Oh, God." "You like that, girl?" "Yeah." "Yeah?" "Ohh!" "Oh, yeah." "You like it harder?" "Ohh!" "Oh, yeah." "Do you like it rough?" "Oh, God, yeah." "Give it to me now." "Give it to me, cowboy." "It's now or never" "Ohh." "Ohh." "My name ain't cowboy." "Ohh!" "Hey, I thought that was your truck outside." "Hey, hey." "Clay, how are you, man?" "Good to see you, you son of a bitch." "Good." "You're up awfully early." "Yeah." "Got to get a lot of Miles in today." "Oh, yeah?" "On the road again, huh?" "Mm-hmm." "So, uh, how's Amanda?" "Oh, man, you sure were right about her." "Boy, she was a mouthy little bitch." "I tried to tell you." "You should've heard some of the things she said about you." "What kind of things?" "I don't think you'd believe them if I told you." "Ha ha ha!" "Uh, Kimberly?" "Kimberly?" "I'm ready for the check when you are." "No rush." "Appreciate it." "Don't worry about it, though." "I'm not going to say anything to anybody." "Just between us." "There you go." "Hey, Clay." "Hi, Kimberly." "How are you?" "Good." "Well, I guess you two are already acquainted then, huh?" "He used to baby-sit me when I was younger." "Heh heh." "Is that right?" "Used to baby-sit you?" "That's great." "Well..." "I think this should settle us up." "You keep the change." "Thanks." "You deserve it." "You thank yourself." "Thank you." "And, um, um, could I get a cup of coffee?" "Sure." "Ok, thanks." "Thank you, girl." "Mmm, mmm, mmm, mmm, mmm." "Hey." "She's just a kid." "Yeah." "Whatever you say, man." "I want to thank you again, Clay." "Oh, yeah?" "For what?" "That thing at the lake." "Used to be friends would stick their neck out for each other." "Not so much anymore." "You know what I mean?" "Well, it was no big deal." "Hell, it isn't a big deal." "I want to let you know that I really appreciate it, Clay." "All right." "Enough said." "All right." "All right." "All right." "A lot of Miles on this one today." "See you later." "What happened?" "Somebody got killed." "I'm sorry, Clay." "You can't come in." "What happened?" "It's Amanda." "What?" "Somebody cut her all to pieces, man." "Oh." "Bum, bum, bum, bum" "Why, baby, why" "Why, baby, why" "Don't you need me" "Why, baby, why" "Like I need you" "You're late." "If you need love" "And affection" "Come to my lovin' arms" "Why, baby, why" "I'll give you sweet love" "Forever" "Why, baby, why" "I won't do you no harm" "There will be no sorrow or strife" "I'll be faithful" "?" "For the rest of my life?" "I don't know what to tell you, Dan." "I've never seen anything like this before." "Agent shelby?" "Hi." "Are you sheriff mooney?" "Yeah." "How you doing?" "Dale shelby, FBI." "This is agent Reynard." "May we see the body, please?" "When was she discovered?" "Uh, a couple hours ago." "A meter man saw her." "The meter's right outside the window." "Has the weapon been recovered?" "No." "Hey, sheriff." "Oh!" "Whoa!" "Whoa!" "Whoa!" "You're standing in evidence." "God." "Hi." "Uh, there's a really big crowd out there." "You want me to run them off?" "Just keep them off the property." "Ok, Barney?" "Yes, sir, sheriff." "Your deputy's name is Barney?" "Yeah." "That's great." "Excuse me." "Excuse me." "Who are all these people?" "Uh, state police, the fire chief, and..." "A couple of councilmen." "Why is the fire chief here?" "Well, he's done some police work before." "I thought it couldn't hurt." "And how about the councilmen?" "Well, uh..." "They wanted to come." "You know, ordinarily I say the more the merrier." "I do." "I say it all the time, but a murder scene is not really crowd appropriate, so could we just make sure that nobody touches anything?" "Thank you so much." "Anybody seen this?" "No." "What do you suppose... he cleaned up afterwards." "Bingo." "Mm-hmm." "How well did you know Amanda?" "Pretty well." "What was she like?" "Honest." "Meaning?" "Amanda wasn't the nicest person in the world." "Paging Dr. crowder." "Dr. crowder, please pick up line 364." "I told Dr. jaffe to meet us here." "Did you catch somebody?" "The wounds were all made with the same knife." "Probably a standard kitchen knife." "The fatal blow entered just below the shoulder blade, where it pierced her heart and her left lung." "How long has her husband been dead?" "Oh, about a month." "Has she been seeing anyone since that time?" "Not that I know of." "Excuse me." "Any signs of sexual assault?" "No, but she did have intercourse within 2 hours of her death." "How many of the wounds were postmortem?" "Almost all of them." "I counted more than 40 points of entry in all." "Let me show you." "The first thing that I'm going to do when I get back is to get some decent food." "I can dig it." "I've been eating virtual mystery meat." "But then I've tasted better." "Know what I'm saying?" "Coconuts, pineapples." "You pound down the stuff like there's no tomorrow." "You should know." "You know what it's made of." "I don't want to talk about what it's made of." "I'm eating this." "Small cheese and broccoli." "What do I owe you?" "Uh, 7.50." "Whatever floats your boat." "Keep it." "Oh, thanks." "Oh, God!" "Why don't you start by describing your relationship with Amanda?" "We were friends." "Nothing more?" "No." "Do you like movies, Clay?" "And can I call you Clay?" "Sure." "Sure, you like movies, or sure, I can call you Clay?" "Sure, you can call me Clay, and I like movies." "I mean, you got to, living in a town like this, right?" "Amanda was quite a fan, too." "Did you know that?" "No, I didn't." "She had a very extensive video collection." "Most of the stuff was not really my taste." "Low-brow comedies, action junk, things of that nature." "But I was very bored in my motel room, so I decided to borrow one of her videos." "You ever seenalien?" "I think so, a long time ago." "It's a great flick." "Very empowering, although small screen, shitty dub is not really the way to experience it." "I was just watching it and minding my own business, and guess what happened." "Let's find out." "Aah!" "Oh, God!" "So you're a full-service garage, eh?" "That was really impressive, Mr. De Mille." "When did you shoot that?" "A couple of months ago." "She said she was gonna record over it, but I guess she didn't." "No." "Why didn't you tell me about you two?" "We were having an affair, mooney." "That's not the kind of thing you talk about." "What do you know about Carol Pierce?" "Who's Carol Pierce?" "The woman whose body you found floating in bear lake." "I've never heard the name before." "She'd been missing about 2, 2 1/2 months." "She was last seen in the great falls area." "Do you ever get up there for any reason?" "Great falls." "Wait a minute." "Mooney, what's she trying to do?" "I'm trying to tell you something." "She was stabbed just like Amanda, and just like 7 other women that have turned up dead in this state over the last 2 years." "We've also got 5 women missing, including Gloria Collins, so why don't you quit dicking around, and tell me what you know about her?" "This is crazy." "This is really fucking crazy." "Mooney, tell her that this is crazy." "You were the last person to be seen with her." "I'm not answering any more questions." "You got to admit it's a big coincidence." "What?" "You're sleeping with one victim, you're dating another, and you actually found a third." "Come on." "We're a little curious." "You know, I'm not talking anymore." "All right, mooney, I want a lawyer." "You don't need a lawyer, Clay." "You're not being charged with anything." "But I do think you can help us." "There's bound to be something you saw or heard that might lead us to the killer." "Look, why don't you go on home and think about it?" "Maybe you're forgetting something if anything comes to you, you give me a call." "Hey, mooney." "Do me a favor." "You make sure that tape doesn't get out, ok?" "You've got my word." "He's not your man." "Why?" "Let me ask you something." "Why would he lead us to one of the bodies?" "That doesn't make any sense." "We're not talking about rational thought here." "Sometimes people want to be caught." "Sometimes they're crying out for help." "Sometimes they push the envelopes, they taunt us." "No." "Clay is a nice guy." "They're all nice guys." "Hello." "Hey, buddy." "Lester." "Yeah, one and the same." "Listen, Clay." "I think me and you should get together." "Hello." "Are you there?" "Clayborne." "Ha ha ha." "Yeah, I'm here." "Listen, I'm gonna be up your way later on tonight, so where's a place me and you can meet?" "You know, something comfortable." "Um..." "What about doc holiday's?" "Oh, now, I don't think so, Clay." "I don't think me and you should be seen together." "Do you?" "Hey, Clay." "I didn't think you'd show." "Just had to make sure that you weren't followed, my man." "Ha." "Boy, don't this bring back memories?" "Why?" "Why?" "Don't get all riled up on me now!" "Don't get all riled up on me now, boy!" "Son, take it slow." "Take it slow." "Take your ass slow, boy." "I told you now." "Play nice with your big daddy here." "Why?" "I was doing you a goddamn favor." "I never asked you to fucking kill her!" "Well, you're not sorry she's gone, are you?" "They think I did it." "No, they don't." "They think I did all of 'em." "They don't have nothing on you." "It'll all blow over in a week." "Jesus Christ." "Bring down the temperature a little bit." "It won't take that long if I tell them about you." "But you won't do that." "Yeah, why not?" "Well, you already had your chance, Clay..." "But you didn't do it, did you?" "I think you're a little worried about what old Amanda told me." "I mean, here you got 2 guys fishing..." "And then out of the middle of nowhere, all of a sudden a body washes up." "That's not the kind of thing you see every day." "But yet, neither of us seemed all that surprised by it, man." "You know, what I can't understand is how come after you dropped me off you didn't just come back here and throw her ass right back in the lake." "Nobody would have known." "I didn't kill her." "I believe you." "I said it." "I believe you." "I believe you, Clay, but I don't think that anybody else would." "How many have there been?" "Oh, come on now, Clay." "Let's not get into that shit." "I want to know." "You wouldn't be trying to play detective or anything with me, would you?" "You know if I go down, you go with me." "So why not tell me?" "Well, there's a few they don't know about." "But that's just the way it is, Clay." "Some people can just, uh..." "Disappear." "Nobody misses 'em." "What, mama Lester didn't love you?" "Don't lower yourself." "Don't lower it!" "Don't lower yourself!" "Seems to me like you're the last person in the goddamn world that should be asking me a fucking question like that." "I saw you that night, Clay." "Uh-huh." "I saw the way you handled her like that." "What, because I slapped Amanda?" "I didn't mean to hit her." "Sure you did." "Who knows, Clay?" "Who knows?" "If there hadn't been a bunch of people around you there." "You might not have stopped just with a little old whacky." "You're fucked." "Am I?" "It's all very simple, Clay." "There are some people out there that need... need killing." "You know, you should have heard some of the shit that she was saying after." "You know, she even tried telling me that, uh..." "You had something to do with her husband dying." "Now, can you fucking believe that one?" "That little bitch got me so fucking pissed off, man!" "That's why I lost fucking control with her!" "That's why I made such a goddamn fucking mess!" "Usually I'm pretty clean about it all." "But, uh..." "Aw, hell." "That's all over with now." "It isn't for me." "Patience, buddy." "Can you try that?" "The big "p" word, patience." "Hell, Clay, I don't blame you for being sore." "Fuck, man." "I put you in a spot, and I know it." "One of these days, Clay..." "You're gonna look back." "You're gonna realize" "I did the world a great service that night." "You think about it." "He did seem a little nervous the other day when he came in." "All right." "Ok." "Well, thank you." "You're welcome." "Hey, Clay." "Hi." "Get dressed." "Barney." "Could you not..." "Poke the body with a stick, please?" "I was just seein' somethin'." "Thank you." "It's time we dragged the lake." "Yeah." "Mooney." "Clay." "I'm missing work, you know." "Yeah." "Well, this won't take long." "Woman's body found floating." "We've also got 5 women missing." "There are some people out there that need..." "need killing." "Clay." "Right in here." "Disgusting smell, isn't it?" "What do you want?" "Gloria Collins isn't missing anymore." "His name is Lester long." "I met him over at doc holiday's a couple weeks ago." "I know he's a truck driver." "He works for a company, scanlon something." "Scanlon van lines." "Something like that." "Location?" "I don't know." "So why do you think he killed her?" "He thought he was doing me a favor." "A favor?" "Apparently he's got a real dim view of women." "Well, hell, who doesn't around here." "Why the fuck did you wait so long to tell us?" "Wait until you meet him." "Hey." "Quit." "Where have you been?" "Just trying to make an honest living." "Any messages here?" "Who'd want to talk to you?" "There was someone calling for that Lester long fella, though." "Oh, yeah?" "Did they, uh..." "Say who it was?" "Said she was from the FBI." "They got women working there now?" "What did you tell her?" "I told her there was no Lester long working here." "I did right, didn't I, Bobby?" "Mmm." "Sure did." "Where's my sugar, darlin'?" "Thank you." "Who is that Lester long anyhow?" "Well, I am..." "Sweetie pie." "Hi." "This is a warrant authorizing a search of these premises." "You know, I don't know what you're doing here." "I told you where you could find him." "We called scanlon van lines." "There's no Lester long working there." "Did it ever occur to you that maybe there's more than one scanlon van lines?" "Mm-hmm." "We're investigating all our options." "Somewhere out there there's a big truck with "scanlon van lines"" "written right on the side." "I just figured with all the police and FBI you might..." "Here's a smash to the shortstop." "Makes a great play..." "Would you come in here, sir?" "What?" "What happened here?" "The floorboards are coming up." "Yeah, the piece of shit waterbed broke." "That happened to me one time." "What a mess." "No kidding." "You know..." "I don't really believe you think I did it." "Why not?" "Well..." "I'm no FBI or anything, but..." "You've been looking for this guy for a long time." "I think you're pretty obsessed by him by now." "If you thought I did it, I think I could tell." "I'm not obsessed, nor am I that easy to read." "So how long have you been with the FBI?" "None of your business." "It's a pretty small piece of information, considering that right now you're searching through everything I own." "Fair enough. 12 years." "12 years." "Wow." "So that would make you what?" "Very good at what I do, and 32 years young." "32." "That's a great age..." "I would imagine." "Just trying to make a little conversation." "I appreciate that, I do, but it's not necessary, so why don't you go finish watching your sporting event?" "Baseball." "Baseball." "In here!" "You're up early." "Yup." "Any news?" "I sent his mug shot out last night." "We'll see if anybody recognizes him." "Tell me something." "Is he like you pictured?" "I don't know what I pictured, but no, he's not." "Doesn't that bother you?" "It all bothers me." "Chow time." "Not hungry." "Well, I heard that, but you gotta eat something, boy." "Any luck finding him, mooney?" "No." "Well, keep trying, won't you, mooney?" "Oh, hell, you know I will." "If you get hungry later, tell Barney." "He'll heat it up for you." "Morning, glory." "How are you?" "Where's Barney?" "Oh, you mean sleeping beauty?" "What are you doing here?" "Well, you're a friend of mine, Clay." "You know Lester long would never forget a friend." "That's not your name." "No, it's not." "It is not my name, but, brother, I've always liked the sound of it." "Know what I mean?" "So how are they treating you?" "You doing ok back there?" "Well, I'm charged with murder." "Only one count." "Don't be such a fuckin' pussy all the time, please." "You want a cigarette?" "I got smokes." "Come on." "That's it." "So, got yourself a lawyer?" "Nope." "Don't worry, brother." "You ain't gonna need a fuckin' lawyer." "I'll see to that." "Oh, yeah." "You've been good to me so far." "Don't start with me, Clay." "You set me up." "You set yourself up, goddamn it!" "You crossed the line with me, boy." "What kind of man would I be if I let something like that go?" "That's behind us." "The thing we gotta think about now is getting you out of there." "You out of your fucking mind?" "I'm not gonna try to escape." "Oh, I know that, you little fuckin' cunt." "Did I say that to you?" "Did I say you were supposed to try to escape?" "I got something else in mind for you, Clay." "Now, let's face it." "They all think you killed a lot of women." "And I think the only way they're gonna stop thinking that is if they know... if they know..." "That the man they're really looking for is still out there somewhere." "Still out there somewhere." "Hey." "Uh, you wouldn't happen to have that Kimberly's number on you, would you?" "You leave her out of this, goddamn it." "Man, what the fuck am I saying?" "You know, she already gave it to me." "We're good." "Don't fucking do this." "I am not gonna let you spend your whole life in jail." "You leave her out of this." "All right." "Well, gotta run." "Lester." "Trains are leaving the station." "You fucking listen to me." "Hey, listen, man." "I am sorry that you gotta spend the night here in jail, but all this is gonna be over with soon enough." "A couple months from now, after everything dies down, cools off a little bit, maybe you and old l.L. Here can get together." "Fuck that." "Maybe go fishing." "Don't do this." "Don't you get sassy, goddamn it." "You are a wild one." "Adios, amigo." "Don't go." "Listen." "Lester." "Lester, get back here!" "Showtime." "Please, Lester." "Lester, come on!" "Les..." "Barney, wake up!" "Barney!" "Ohh!" "Barney!" "Fucker!" "Barney, get up!" "Wake the fuck up!" "Barney, wake up, you lazy ass!" "Barney, wake up!" "Barney, come on, wake up!" "Excuse me." "Can I get another one, please?" "Thank you." "Oh, I got it." "Right here." "That's ok." "I can buy my own drinks." "I got it, I got it." "Well, do tell." "Mmm, mmm, mmm." "Damn." "Good-looking girl." "Drinks Johnny Walker black." "Even pays with her own money." "I can't wait to start dreaming tonight." "You're very colorful." "Oh, you don't know the half of it." "I'm like a big fireworks show." "Very bright." "Like lite-brite." "You know what?" "Um, no offense, but this seat is saved." "Who for?" "First guy not wearing denim." "You're not from around here, are you?" "What makes you say that?" "You don't look like the town much." "You don't." "My name's Lloyd." "I won't bite you." "That's a plus, Lloyd." "How you doing?" "I'm good, I'm good." "Barney!" "Wake up!" "Barney!" "Come on, wake up, man!" "Wake the fuck up!" "Jesus fucking Christ!" "This is a joke." "Jesus Christ, Clay, what?" "What do you want?" "Are you trying to fucking starve me?" "Turn off the fucking heat or something." "Wait a minute." "Foolish heart" "This music is driving me crazy." "Yeah." "Well, I guess, uh..." "Country can be kind of an acquired taste." "No, no." "I didn't like it right off the bat, and I still don't." "Scotch is an acquired taste." "Well, drink enough of the scotch, you might learn to like the country-Western music some." "Maybe." "Maybe." "Foolish heart" "Don't set me free" "There was a time" "Are you into the stars at all?" "No." "No." "Astrology." "What about those stones things?" "You pull them stones out?" "Rune stones?" "No." "Could I see your hand for a second, please?" "Why?" "I don't mean to give you cause for alarm or anything, but..." "I think your aura's a little bit cluttered." "Thank you." "You're welcome." "Oh, man." "Let's see here." "Well, it's just as I expected." "Says here that you like country-Western music." "Small towns." "What do I know?" "That you like a whole lot of things you never gave yourself a chance to like." "Oh..." "Mmm." "Would you try my hat on for me, please?" "You think it'll help?" "I don't know, but it'll be a lot of fun at the bar." "I gotta tell you I'm not... hey." "Hey, girl, how are you?" "What took you so long, there, little girl?" "Well, there was a line." "You know." "Yeah, I know." "We almost sent a posse out to look for you." "Let's have a spin." "Have a look-see." "No, not a bit different." "I can't lie to you." "I'm not much on fashion." "It's been a pleasure, ma'am." "Sorry I have to run." "Real nice to meet you." "Nice meeting you." "Pleasure meeting you." "Pleasure meeting you, too." "Come on." "Bye." "You taking care of this?" "Apparently." "You want anything else?" "No." "Oh, my God." "Oh, my God." "Goddamn, Clay." "You can't keep yelling like it's a restaurant." "I got paperwork, man." "Can't call every 10 minutes." "This ain't corn dogs on Sundays." "This is big time." "Here." "Push, push." "You're not in a chicken dilly, the pork stop." "Give me the fucking keys." "Your car keys now." "Look." "You ain't gonna shoot me, Clay." "Now!" "Oh, man." "The girl's name is Kimberly Turner." "She lives at 224 Madison." "I can be there in 5 minutes." "Ok, great." "I was just there." "There's no sign of them." "When you get there, wait in case they show." "I'm on my way." "What, what, what, what, what is this?" "Where did he go?" "I don't know." "He's got my gun." "Moon" "Over Montana" "Shine" "Through the night" "Moon over..." "So, where are you from, anyway?" "You ever run out of conversation and not know what to say?" "Silvery light" "While the herd" "Is lowin'" "I read somewhere that if you were to fly faster than the speed of light and you went way out into outer space and if you had a really powerful telescope, you could look back at the earth and see dinosaurs." "Isn't that somethin'?" "Now, that is somethin', ain't it?" "Dinosaurs?" "Oh, my God." "Clay!" "You scared me." "Clay, Clay, Clay, Clay, Clay, Clay, Clay, Clay." "What am I gonna do with you?" "Maybe I didn't explain myself right here, but, you see, in order for this here to work, had to stay in jail." "See, that's kind of the, uh... well, it's sort of the key to the whole fuckin' idea." "You know what I mean?" "I didn't agree to this." "Well, that's your problem, buddy." "Don't fuckin' think straight." "I'm thinkin' just fine." "That's all right." "That's all right." "We'll just do this another time, then." "I'm gonna let the police sort it out." "That's your plan?" "Huh?" "This is a little too weird for me... aah!" "This feels fuckin' weird, too, don't it?" "It's gonna get fuckin' weirder!" "Let her go, Lester." "You know I can't do that." "You know I can't." "I said let her go." "You know a lot of fellas would be real angry right now?" "I have taken a lot of chances for you, Clay." "Goddamn it, I'm takin' a chance right fuckin' now!" "But that's all right." "'Cause me and you, we got a special kind of friendship." "I am not your friend." "Sure you are." "Fishin' buddy." "Now, why don't you just run along or something?" "I got a little romance in mind." "I swear to God I'll kill you." "You gonna kill me?" "You have a seat, baby doll." "Aah!" "Aah!" "You feelin' sorry for yourself?" "Huh?" "!" "Come on." "Come on, Clay!" "Let's see what the fuck you got, boy!" "You got some shit on your mind, boy?" "Show me!" "Show me, goddamn it!" "Squeeze that fucker." "Like you did with your friend?" "Squeeze it." "Who you fuckin' kiddin', huh?" "Now, for you..." "Aah!" "Clay, come on, come on." "You know I can't have that deputy dawg waking up with a loaded gun." "Use it." "You got one, use it." "Goddamn, Clay." "You were gonna shoot me, weren't you?" "Let her go, Lester." "You know, if I go down..." "You go with me." "I swear to God, Clay." "Just let her go." "I'll tell you what." "Clay." "You all right?" "You ok?" "Where is he?" "Come on." "Where is he?" "I didn't mean to hit you so hard, partner." "You did the right thing." "You did, Clay." "You did the right thing." "Goddamn, this is beautiful country, ain't it?" "Does all this land come with the house?" "Sure does." "Trouble is, so does the town." "We're gonna find him." "Is that right?" "There's nothing you want to talk to me about?" "Nothing you want to tell me?" "Nope." "There's not." "Take care of yourself, Clay." "I'll try my best." "What can I get for you?" "Do you use real ice cream in your shakes?" "Sure do." "I'm talkin' the real McCoy." "Yeah, they are real." "Ha ha ha ha!" "Can I have a strawberry shake, please?" "A strawberry one?" "One strawberry." "Ok." "Ok." "Jesus, how the hell they expect to do any business with that behind the counter, huh?" "Don't have it, boy." "They know what you look like." "What's that?" "She saw you in the bar." "She bought you a drink." "Yeah, well, uh, I saw her first, didn't I?" "There it is." "Oh, thank you." "Yeah, we spin it around." "Keep your hands off my straw." "I thank you not to touch it." "Thank you." "Thank you, captain." "I'm sorry." "Thank you." "Jesus." "Ahh." "Ohh." "Well, that was quite a pickle back there." "Ha ha." "You know, it, uh, took me 2 hours to hitch a ride." "Nothin' you couldn't handle." "Well, I notice you're all packed up." "Where the hell you headed to?" "None of your business." "Mmm." "Well, I'll tell you, we're soured." "We didn't communicate." "I mean, uh..." "Hell, you're off." "You know, you're doin' your thing." "And I'm off, uh, doin' mine." "Hmph." "We'll do better next time." "Ha ha ha." "That's a beautiful animal you got there, man." "It's a quarter horse, right?" "Uh-huh." "Hey, girl." "You a racer?" "On my way to Ruidoso right now." "Goddamn it!" "Ruidoso?" "This is much more than a hobby, ain't it, slick?" "Well, it ain't like racing' thoroughbreds." "Well, why the hell would you want to race thoroughbreds?" "You get more action on those short tracks, you know what I mean?" "That's where the fever's at, brother." "Anyone will tell you that." "You spend much time around horses?" "What, are you shittin' me?" "Take a look at me, son." "I been ridin' horses since I was 3 years old." "Just put me on, watch me go." "Barebacked, ah, you know." "Backwards." "Pick up quarters and shit." "Trick rider." "Younger." "No rodeos, though." "Well, I could use an extra hand for a few days." "You got the time?" "Nothin' but." "Name's Lyle." "Lyle, nice to meet you." "Bobby." "Oh, Bobby." "Nice to meet you." "You're an angel." "You're an angel." "Grab your bag and throw it in the back." "Ok, Bobby." "You got a nice swagger, Bob." "I like the way you walk, man." "Yeah, don't get personal." "Just dumb luck picking me up, huh?" "You ever bet any money at the track?" "I'm not much for talkin' when I travel, Robert."
