" This is the story of a family a lot like yours." "Especially if yours has left a trail of mayhem and destruction across the country." "Most places have at least one really odd family." "The locals usually refer to them as, "those people"." "In the bitter root valley of Montana, those people were the Dunderheads." "Ira was the grandmother and she almost never said anything." "Maybe she just decided there wasn't anything worth saying." " Come on Ira." "This is my last pack." "Hey, you!" " Dunderheads." " Ira had two grand kids she raised since they were little." "The girl Ella, was doing her best to follow in her grandmother's footsteps." "There's nothing here." "There's nothing here." "Womple, there's nothing here." " The grandson was a different story." " Hey there Womple." "Look at you." "Turning into a man." "I'm proud of you son." "One day folks will say, "He's the hunter his father was"." " I need a rifle pop." "I need a great gun like you've got." " The guns are here." "You just have to find them and they're yours." "My things are here, but they all belong to you." "But they all belong to you." "But they all belong to you." " Womple!" "What are you doing?" " Resting, what do you want?" " It's time to eat." "You're not supposed to be in this field." "I'm telling grandma." "And you my little brother, are going to be in trouble." "Big trouble." " You're smoking." " No I'm not." "I'm just holding it for grandma." "Besides, I'm old enough to kick your butt, I'm old enough to smoke." " I'll kick your teeth in all the lines in your face!" " It's time to eat now, ugly!" " Womple was in the field today." "Digging, digging, digging." "I told you she'd be mad." " The Dunderheads didn't exactly fit into mainstream society." "But they got by." "Until the night of the big rain." " A dead man don't get back what a dead man can't keep." "It's here, it's here." "I found it." "Oh yeah, and it's all mine now." " It's my father's." "It belongs to him." " No, it's all mine." "Your father's gone." "He's probably dead." "Yeah, he's dead." "It's custom for my tribe to keep what they find." "And I found it." " It's my father's, take it off." " It's mine now!" "Take it off!" " And this is where you'll live for the rest of your ugly life." " Grandma, something really bad happened to Black Jimmy." " Hey, Black Jimmy!" "Jimmy you in there?" "Hey Jimmy!" "Hello, I'm looking for my boy." "Hello, Dunderheads." "Someone's in there." "Dunderheads!" "I'm looking for Black Jimmy." "You send him home or I'm going to the sheriff." "Stupid Dunderheads." " Ira had met the sheriff several times." "And it would not be a good idea to meet him again." " Con a da." " What?" " Coon nada." " Canada?" "We're going to Canada?" "♪ In Canada they treat you like a king" "♪ You'll feel welcome It make you wanna sing ♪" " No!" "♪ In Canada they treat you like a queen" "♪ In Canada everybody sing La la la la la Lala" "♪ In Canada ♪" " Unlike Ira, Ella could read." "But she didn't wanna start the trip out by arguing with grandma." "Besides, there had to be more than one road to Canada, didn't there?" " I stalked a white tiger." "The tiger has no friend." "Beneath an umbrella tree he looked at me." "The sun was ready, right between his two hearts." " Two hearts?" " One to love and one to kill." "He's all yours." "You see, he's still alive." "Two hearts." " Hey, you're scaring the fish." "That guy is crazy, he belongs in a cage." " Womple." "Womple, wake up." "You my little brother are in so much trouble." "What did you do?" "You murderer." " Where are we going?" " To Canada because of you." "We're escaping." " Father's in Canada?" "He wrote to us?" "He sent for us?" " Father is in a bar in hell." "And that's where you're going." "You talk too much for somebody who's mentally wrong." " Old Highway 93 was perfect for the Dunderheads." "The Falcon wouldn't go over 45." "And Ira was still trying to remember how to drive." " One day folks will say, he's the hunter his father was." " It was a new world for the Dunderheads." "They'd never encountered any party animals before." "Or parties for that matter." " I need to go." " Good aren't they?" "They're from Washington state." "How many can I get ya?" "I'll give you six for the price of three." "I grow them myself." "How about a dozen?" "That's all we eat in Idaho." "Fried, mashed, baked, scalloped, roasted, boiled." "My cats even eat 'em." "Hey lady, wait a minute you gotta pay." "Hey." "Hey what are you doing?" "Get out of there!" " Grandma, how far is Canada?" "Maybe we could push." " The man in the pickup truck looked like Black Jimmy's father to Ira." "Plus she was pretty certain all Indians were related." " She went out on ya?" "Yeah, your needle was stuck." "There's a station about half mile down the road." "I'll give you guys a push, alright?" "Okay, we'll uh, roll in neutral." " Should I fill her up?" " Yes and two chocolate bars." " Don't sale candy." "Gas and oil." " We'll have three glasses." " Where ya headed?" " To Canada." "Wanna come?" " Canada's a long way." "My old man killed a six point bull elk up there last year." " We've never killed a bull elk." "But Womple killed the neighborhood Indian boy." " Grandma, I didn't mean to hurt him." "He was helping me dig." "I didn't mean to hurt him." "If we went home, I could talk to somebody and everything would be fine." "Grandma please listen to me." " It was daddy's wasn't it?" " It was daddy's wasn't it?" "Don't talk to me." " I'll have to save it for him." " Father, I knew you'd come back." " Fetch me my gun." "Just one for the job." "She's all yours son." " You're lucky I didn't let them eat you alive ugly brother." "We could of just left you here." " Ella." "Where are we going?" " Wherever we land." " We're not going to Canada are we?" " We are going to the end of the road." " Where is that?" " The North Pole." "The center of the earth." "Hell." "The end of the road." " Ella." "I wanna go home." " Womple, haven't you heard?" "We don't have a home." "We have grandma." "No ice cream maker." "No tire swing." "Just grandma." "And daddy's stupid old car." " Bill did you feel that?" "I think I heard something." " You'd probably think Ira was gunning for vengeance on the bottle throwing party animals." "But the truth was..." "She just never learned to pass." " Idiots!" "Damn kids!" " My bike." "Look what they did to my bike." " Oh honey." " Oh Bill." " Hallelujah hallelujah, praise the lord." "You know folks, now we have to talk about naughty people." " And naughty people don't send in their contributions to the cause." "It's their destiny for god to punish these people." " No!" " Yes, yeah!" "Every bad deed that you do, god is watching." "He's watching you be a naughty person." " Womple!" " And friends, a man who has been naughty is a man that is ugly." "And god sees the ugliness and says, shame, shame on that naughty person." "And then you know what he does?" " What?" " He writes that person's name down in his little black book." "So folks, don't risk ending up in the underworld." "Send 300 dollars to..." " Ella?" " What do you want, naughty person?" " If we don't go home then father will come back and we won't be there." " Father's not coming back." " Yes he is." " Shut up!" "Shut up!" "Shut up!" "Haven't you done enough already?" "Worry about getting out of that black book and stop trying to run back home." " Womple didn't care about getting out of any black book." "He just wanted to find his dad and get the heck away from Ira." " Let's make it quick before my pill wears off." " Well now you've done it." "You tore my dress." " Well honey if you'd just stand up straight." " You don't like it when I don't stand up straight." " Oh honey, I like it when you do it any way." " Oh oh, who's that?" " Could be an escaped prisoner." "They're out here you know." " Look it's, it's a boy." "What are you doing out here?" " I'm trying to find my father." " Oh, bill." "Hey everyone, look what we found." " My god, it's one of those prison escapees." " Your first child." " This is Katie." " Lost it this morning." " This is George, her husband." " What's your name son?" " Womple." " Tell me son, do you have any kind of gambling money?" " No." " Too bad, too bad!" " He's our best man." " I am the best man." " He is the best man." " I smell a horse." " Vernice, I'd like you to meet our new friend, Womple." " I need a cigarette." " Vernice you have a cigarette." "You shouldn't smoke." " Would you shut up and drive, Bill." " Yeah we are Vegas bound!" " We are gonna be married in Las Vegas." " Married?" " You know, married." "The strongest bonding between two people who are in love." "A concentration of joint findings and good real estate buying." "Not by yourself, but now with the saying of "I do", another human being and children." "Bill and I, we want two children." " Marriage is a war." "It's a declaration of war." "Somebody loses, somebody thinks they win." "Then there's divorce." "There's poverty." "The loneliness, hell, and burning, rotting hell!" " Just ignore her." "She's old, blind, senile, and divorced." " If I could see you, I would clobber you!" " Here you go Bernice." " I can't see ya, but I can smell ya." "I never did like the smell of shit." "I killed a horse once cause he took me to a barbedwire fence and tried to scrape me off." "I killed him instantly." "Now this might be as old as I am, but we both still work." "I'm not afraid to use it on three things." "Do you know what those three things are?" "Do you know what those three things are?" "Now you answer me because I know you're there." " No." " I shoot husbands." "I shoot horses." "And I shoot strangers, stranger!" " Vernice, put that gun away." " I swear, I smell a horse in here." " I believe it's an abomination that they don't send their money to the pastor." "Cause it's their destiny for god to punish these people." "Yes it is, it's their destiny to be punished." " Is that a dead chicken next to you?" " Good morning Womple." " If I was sitting next to a dead chicken, I wouldn't be sitting there." "I wouldn't be allowed to own a chicken or sit next to one that was dead." "Are you gonna eat that dead chicken or just play with..." "Why doesn't he wash his face?" " If you don't shut up I'm gonna rip your eyes out!" "You better cut it out." "You made her mad." "If she starts hitting me, I'll hit you." " I wanna kill her." "Ella." " Where would we be without her?" " Out there." "There's a lot we can see and do if we get away from her." " No no!" " He came from France and my face stepped on his pants." " Well guess what, by the time they hit Ely Nevada," "Womple was ready to bolt again." " God's little black book." "Evil boy bad boy, someone's special voodoo toy." " Ely wouldn't look like much to you or me." "But to Womple, it might as well have been Times Square." "And the girl in the school yard was the most normal person he'd ever met." " Hi." "What's your name?" " Womple." " Do you go to this school?" " No, I'm traveling." " Oh where are you going?" " To Africa." "To be with my father, Hyrick." "He's a famous hunter." " My father sells cars." " We have a nice car." "I don't wanna live there anymore." " Teresa." "Come here Teresa." " I have to go." " Wait." "I have a gift for you." "It was my father's." " What is that?" "I'm calling the police." " It's my grandma and my sister." "They're really mean." "Please!" " Help help!" "Please help!" "Help me!" "Help me!" "Help me!" "I wanna go home!" " Stop!" "Stop!" " Everybody alright?" "I could fix that flat." "Two minutes." "Alright." "All set." "You're gonna lose that muffler." "She alright?" "I been out there for hours." "People won't pick ya up." "They think you're a convict or something." "Where ya'll headed?" "Do you speak English?" " Canada." " Oh Canadian." "Parlay English?" " My father is a hunter." "We're looking for him." " Oh." " For an old woman she sure can wail." "I'm Trevor." "And you are?" " Womple." " Womple." "Good to meet you Womple." " I'm Ella and we're going to the underworld." " It was only a split second of hesitation." "But if Trevor wanted out now, he'd have to jump." " Do you ride a horse?" " Canada!" " Grandma Ira wants to know if this is the way to Canada." " Canada?" "The way they were going they'd hit the Mexican border in a couple of days." " I don't think so." "Definitely not Canadian ground." " Ever read a book?" " Got one right here." " God's little black book?" " No, that's for Sunday school." " Well it's 300 dollars to get out of it." "Could you let us have 300 dollars?" " 300..." "Are you kidding?" "If I had that kind of money I'd be sitting on an air conditioned Grey Hound bus." "And heck, I'd have a fancy new haircut." "300 hundred dollars, no ma'am." " I had a dream my father shot a tiger with a rifle as big as his arm." " Keep dreaming." "Father's dead." "Ow." " Whoa whoa Womple." "You can't put a bunch of wood on the fire." "You'll smother it buddy." "You wanna keep you matches dry." "Best in a metal container like this." "You can keep that." "It's yours." " Thanks." "This was, this was my father's." " Hyrick Dunderhead." "Your daddy?" "That's a gooden." "How did your father die?" " He isn't dead." "My sister was lying." " When my father died, we had a big funeral." "All kinds of people came out to pay their respects to my daddy." " Funeral?" " Yeah you..." "You never been to a funeral?" "Anyone you know ever die?" " An Indian friend I knew died." "He died." " Hey, you like to play cards?" "You look like an old card shark from way back huh." "How about a little Black Jack." "Yes sir, Womple the card shark." "I can tell." "I saw it in your eyes, didn't I?" "It's called minimum wage." " So that's what everybody gets?" " Well, some people get more if they go to school." "I spent a year in college and I'm still digging ditches." " So do I." " Oh really?" " I did." " Hey, wait wait!" " Wait you're leaving him!" " Ira knew how to make the tough calls." "Trevor was just another mouth to feed if he didn't know the way to Canada." " Let me do it." "There's something." " I wish they'd hurry back with some cold ones." " I wish you'd just shut up and get under this thing and fix it!" " Oh the guys will be back with the parts soon Vernie." "Hey hey hey!" " Strangers, run for the hills!" " I'll do it." "Unfortunately for Las Vegas" "Highway 93 runs right through town." "And once Ira found 93, she was sticking with it." " Miserable, look at you." "You're supposed to be a good luck poodle." "What are you?" "You're nothing, you're nothing." "You're the same in the front as you are in the back." "My daddy always said the animals would get us in the end." " Hallelujah." "It's their destiny for god to punish these people." " Grandma." " Oh no, it's them." " It is them." " Grandma, father's gonna come back." "And I'm gonna tell him you've been bad." "Bad to people and us." "And he's gonna take us away." "Far from you." "You missed!" " Maybe it was burying a fat gambler, or maybe it was throwing rocks at Womple." "Either way, Ira was hungry again and wanted to find a nice picnic spot." " Peanut butter, jelly." " Of course, it needed to be someone else's picnic." " Mad magazine and muscle boy!" "Hi." " Two pairs." " What's her name?" " Her name is princess Angelina." "Hey!" "Give it back!" "Give it back!" " Don't make me cut you little button face girl." "Death is a serious way of life for me." "I pick on little dolls, and little girls, and little brothers with big noses and big asses!" " It's my doll!" " I'll give you a black eye and fill your mouth with soap." "And let rats lay eggs in you hair." "And all your babies will be born with whiskers." "And turn noses so they can smell your foulness." " It's mine!" "Give it back!" " Double triple slut." " You." " Amy." "Sweetie." "Amy?" " It wasn't me." "It was her!" " Amy!" " Baby." " Mom?" " The Grand Canyon was the last straw for Ira." "Now her grand kids had killed a little girl." " Grandma?" "Grandma where are you going?" " Grandma!" "Grandma!" " Shut up!" "I remember one late afternoon in Paris." "I was walking along the lake." "A car drove by and a man whistled at me." "And I went with him to see a movie." "He was a sailor and he bought me big boxes of red flowers." "Then we had hot fudge sundaes with marshmallows." "He gave me a French puppy." "And he asked me to come and live with him forever and ever." "And he was a painter." "And he wanted to paint a picture of me in his room with the flowers and no clothes on." "I told him no, but after two or three glasses of beer" "I was standing in the doorway of his studio in my panties." "And he leaned in and he kissed me on the mouth." " Ella!" "Ella!" " Con nada." "Con nada!" " You killed him." "You killed father." " Womple wake up." "Come on." "Womple help me." "She's gonna you." " Ira felt like an animal in a trap." "Nothing was going right." "She couldn't protect her grand kids from the world." "Or, the world from her grand kids." " Where are we?" " Nearing the underworld." " My head hurts?" "What hit me?" " It was a metal stick in my hand that accidentally hit your head." "She was going to leave you." "She's mad as an ant." "Be nice." "We gotta be nice or she's gonna be mad." "Father said I have two hearts." "One to love and one to kill." " Hey brother, you know how to drive this thing?" " Not too fast Richard." "We're doing fine." " We're close." "20 minutes max, sweetie." " We're doing fine, slow down." "We don't need to have a wreck." "Richard there was a grandmother back on the side of the road there." "We should go back." " You're seeing things." "We can't go back." "You're having a baby, baby." " You're creating bad karma for the baby and she's not even born yet." "Just pull over and go back!" " See D makes it go this way and R makes it go this way." " Uh, what does uh, that one do?" " N." "N, nothing." " You guys definitely need some water." "Oh hell, you look awful." " He's my brother." "I smoke and he doesn't." " You need some gas too?" " Will you give us some?" " Sure." " My brother needs a shirt." "You're such a boy." "Do you like girls?" " Yeah, I do." " Got any chocolate?" " Yeah, inside." " Trade you these balloons for some candy bars." " Womple really enjoyed the feeling of being clean or cleaner." "He felt like he could do anything." " 20 dollars please." "You should clean those restrooms." " Your grandmother loved you and you killed her." " She was mean to us." " You're growing up to be just like me." " I wanna be like you." "Tell me some more stories about Africa." " Look them up yourself." "I made 'em all up to you anyway." " You're a great hunter." " No son, I'm just a thought in your head." " You think I killed her?" " What are you doing?" " Dancing." "Dance with me." " No." "You look stupid." " Come on, dance." "You're supposed to dance at funerals." "He hit me once and my head hurt for one week." " He was our father." " He was a drunk." "He ran away with women." "A naughty person just like you." " Shut up!" " You know, I've decided that I really do like boys a lot." "They're just so strong and pretty." " Then why don't you go be with him?" " He kissed me." "A boy's kiss." "Father liked to kisses too." " That's not true." " True as melting candy." "Father's kisses were drinking kisses, but he liked to kiss." "Yes he did." "Serves you right." "Damn, Womple that hurt." " You okay?" " Like it?" "A nice boy gave it to me." "He wants to have a baby." " Go!" "Out of here!" "Go!" "I'm calling the cops." "Go!" " I'm so scared." "I can't breathe." "She's gonna kill us." " No she's not." " I wanna go home." "I wanna go home." " It's their destiny." "He's watching you." " It is the underworld." "♪ There is a land I'm dreaming of" "♪ The sky goes on forever Clouds of fluffs" "♪ The world went on forever" "♪ I want to go where there ain't no snow" "♪ Where the rain don't fall Where the wind don't blow" "♪ And the big rock can't do nothing to me" "♪ In the big rock candy mountain" "♪ There's a land that's fair and bright" "♪ Where the pennies grow on bushes" "♪ And we sleep out every night" "♪ And the deer are in the meadows" "♪ Where they're eating daffodils" "♪ I want to go where there ain't no snow" "♪ And the rain don't fall and the winds don't blow" "♪ In the big rock candy mountain" "♪ Where the buzzing of the bees and the peppermint trees" "♪ Around the soda water fountain" "♪ In the lemonade springs where the Blu bird sings" "♪ On the big rock candy mountain ♪" " Now, I'm sure you wanna know what became of them, but I don't think that's fair."
