"Getting information from these people is like pulling teeth." "It's a whole 'nother world up in there." "Generations upon generations of these people never even come down off that mountain." "Got their own breed of justice and it does not include us." "Even the local police sent in several squad cars, but they haven't been able to get nothing yet." "So you know that I'm stuck here with my hands tied." "What the fuck does that mean?" "That they aren't gonna... do anything about this or look for Rodney?" "I did not say that, Russell." "I said that they're having a difficult time and I'm having jurisdiction issues." "But I'm gonna be on it until it's done." "What the fuck?" " Bud." " I mean, you know..." "We know John Petty's dead." "I mean, Jesus, you know, damn near hear him dying on Dan's phone." "But Rodney might still be out there." "I know that this is very hard for you, but..." "I do have a procedure that I have to follow." "It sounds like there's no procedure at all." " Bud!" " No, no, no, no, no." "It sounds like they're not doing a goddamn thing." "Now, either you're all afraid to go in there... or, uh... you just don't give a shit." " You walking down the wrong road." "I said I'm into it, and I said I'll handle it." "Don't make this personal." " You need to stay out of my business." " Stay out of your business." " Knock it off." " Stay out of your business." "You know what?" "While I was away, it seems that all that you was into was my business." "So that's what this is." "You got a problem with me." "Yeah, I got a problem with you." "WESLEY:" "I'm not the one who was out drinking and driving." "Got locked up and had to leave his woman alone 'cause of something I did, a mistake I made." "And I don't know nothing about what happened to Rodney." "Nothing at all." "I'm just trying to do my job." "And I'm giving you my word that I'm gonna be on it until it's done." "Until it's done." "Mmm." "Well." "Russell." "Come on." "What is it?" "You want me to show you out?" "I'll be around." "Dan." " RED:" "Where you going now?" " No, it's good." " Hey, Russ, listen, I'm sorry." " Hey." "I know how tough this is, but I'm here to help anyway I can." "Then get me an address for DeGroat." "An address?" "How am I gonna get that address?" "Don't give me that shit, Dan." "You know as well as I do that John Petty has one." "Well, I don't..." "I don't know." "Look, I'll see if I can dig that up." "No, no, no, don't see if you can dig it up." " Do it." " Russell, listen to me." "If you're smart, you let these boys handle it." "I know these guys." "This DeGroat is a nasty son of a bitch." "You let me worry about... who's a nasty son of a bitch." "We'll follow you." "(TRAIN WHISTLE BLOWING IN DISTANCE)" "Damn, looks like John still owes money to these people." "A hell of a lot of money." "I know they had this whole deal, but I didn't realize it was this big." " What deal?" " Well, this bare-knuckle deal up and down the Appalachians." "I don't know that much about it, but my guess is," "Rodney went up there to fight." "Well, why didn't you just say something to Wesley?" "Well, I don't..." "I don't know." "I mean, I didn't..." "I didn't know what to say." "John should've known better." "I think he did, Red, but Rodney forced his hand." "He thought it was the only way to pay off that debt." "I don't see DeGroat's address, but I do know it's up in the Ramapos." "And, Russell, please hear me when I tell you, you'd be way better off letting the authorities deal with him." "They're not doing such a good job, Dan." "Well, I hear you, but John hated dealing with them." "I'm surprised they haven't come down here to get their money." "Money and drugs, that's the only thing that drove that crazy son of a bitch." "Are you ready for this?" "I guess so." "(TALKING INDISTINCTLY)" "You watch your ass."

"A couple years." "RUSSELL:" "A couple years?" "Worth it." "You got nitrous?" "Nah, nah, just a heavy foot." "Yeah." "(CHUCKLES)" "You know who's got any candy here?" " What do you mean, "candy?"" " You know what I mean." "Yeah." "You a fucking cop?" "(LAUGHS)" "Am I a fucking cop?" "Do I look like a fucking cop?" "Who's the old man in the truck?" "Don't worry about him." "He ain't a cop, either." " What you looking for, man?" " Whatever you got." "You know..." "Crank, 20/20's, blue bellies, crystals or pure." " It don't matter." " Wow, he knows his shit." "Yeah, we got some buzzard dust, some critty up at the house." "All right." "We'll get you feelin' shitty, my friend." "Good." "All right, I'll follow you?" "(CRICKETS CHIRPING)" "Yo, it's Tiny." " You wait right here, all right?" " All right." "All right." "Brought them boys out here looking for some of the train." "MAN:" "Yo, if they got their greenbacks, that's fine." "Come on up." "(DOG BARKING)" "Who the fuck are you?" "RUSSELL:" "I'm just passing through." "I ain't asked you where you were going." "I asked you who you were." "Well, I didn't ask who you were." "We just want to get high, and our money's green." "Well, then you come to the right place." "But I got to say, you got some balls coming up in here, not knowing nobody." "But if your money's green... then it's all good." "That's pure glass." "Fire it up." "Looks good to me." "How much?" "Nah, fire that shit up." "It'll blow your balls off, brother."

"(CRICKETS CHIRPING)" "Put your hands where I can see 'em, gentlemen." "Russell Baze?" "That's right." "Chief Barnes from the North Braddock Police alerted us early this evening that you were up here." "You're lucky I got here when I did." "If the locals knew why you were here, they'd zip you up and you'd be leaving in a body bag." "Do I need to ask if you're carrying concealed weapons?" "No, sir." " No, sir." " All right." "Then, given that you're an ex-con, likely carrying concealed weapons, you have a choice." "Either I arrest you now or I follow you to the state line." "With respect, officer, my brother might be up here, and I ain't leaving without him." "I'll only do Chief Barnes a favor once." "You return and I'll arrest you on the spot." "There's nothing you can do from inside a jail cell." "Am I making myself clear, gentlemen?" "Yes, sir, you are." "All right." "Then I'll follow you out." "That boy was always troubled." "Ever since he was a little kid." "You could see it in his eyes." "Especially after your mama died." "(BOYS SHOUTING IN DISTANCE)" "(DOORS SHUTTING, ENGINES STARTING)" "Hey, Russell." "Wesley."

"But please don't do anything." "OK?" "You already tried." "You're lucky you got out of there alive." "Let Wesley handle this." "Let him do his job." "He's a good man, Russell."
