"And a pack of camel lights." "ID?" "I can't sell 'em to you without an ID, honey." "Then just the bullets." "Please?" "I said 45s." "Mine don't even take these cheap-ass nines." "I thought you had 9mm." "I'm fucking useless now, man." "I can't even smoke nobody!" "Your bitch fucked me, Jonah!" "See you there." "Why did he have to talk to me like that?" "Let him get his own bullets." "Are we really doing this right now?" "What did I tell you about the people in the house?" "We pay them to live here." "To be normal fucking people, like I did with you." "What's in the house?" "I don't know." "Good girl." "Good." "And you didn't know what was in your house, right?" "The problem is, not many people believe you." "I swear to god, i never saw anything." "I never took anything." "I believe you." "But you want my trust, no?" "Then prove it like I did." "Okay." "Look, grab that gun and go cover that fucking back door, okay?" "Come on." "Okay?" "Okay, don't blink." "Shut up!" "That's right, butterfinger." "Come on!" "You..." "You let him intercept it?" "Yes!" "Man, you're really..." "Whoa!" "A gun." "Uh..." "Don't do that!" "Oh, shoot Teddy, please." "That'd be awesome!" "It's not here." "Where the fuck is it?" "Kids, run!" "Fast!" "Shut up!" "Fucking daycare center out there." "Where the fuck's our money?" "She's a fucking liar!" "No!" "I do not..." "See?" "Fucking lie to me!" "This is what she gets for stealing." "Was it worth it?" "She cares more about money than she did about her husband." "Jonah." "Jonah, please don't hurt her." "And i can't find shit!" "Show me I'm not wrong about you." "Relax, breathe." "Breathe." "There you go." "This is how you prove it!" "You're alive because of me!" "No one believes you." "You're already a murderer, baby." "Every bullet here will be traced back to that store." "Okay." "Pull the trigger." "Do it." "Shoot." "Now!" "Jonah?" "Let's go, let's go." "Happy birthday." "Happy birthday, man." "For those who don't know me, my name's John link." "Hi, John!" "And I'm a real success story." "Been sober two years, one inside the joint, one out here." "Before that, I was never clean for very long." "Except maybe in the womb, but knowing mom," "I was probably pickled there, too." "I did a lot of damage." "Lost a lot of people along the way." "Some of 'em stay lost." "It's not like they come back and give you an "atta boy"" "for quitting, you know?" "I got a kid I can't find, except on a milk carton." "Ex that won't talk to me." "Every skill I ever had, every friend i ever knew, is now a parole violation." "But you can't be a prick all your life and then just say, "nevermind," you know?" "I can't fix everything I broke." "All I can do is not drink." "So, I won't do that today." "It's like when I was in the joint all that time." "Just count off every fucking day until I die." "Well, happy birthday, you grumpy old bastard." "Am I allowed to be in a bad mood, Kirby?" "Of course." "I just think we should go get some coffee, so you can calm down a bit." "Nah, I got some work." "Got some people coming over with some bullshit ideas." "Well, they picked the right guy for that." "Seems everybody's full of shit today, but you." "Well, maybe i just hate birthdays, all right?" "Makes you think there's some kind of reward for all this shit." "No, there's no reward, there's just a reminder from why you're quitting to people you're hurt." "Maybe some people need hurtin'." "With a chain." "Look at the person that really did this." "You." "And if you learn some Patience, there is a reward." "It's believing in something bigger than yourself." "Kirby, how fucking patient do I have to be?" "I'm here, right?" "I'm looking at this fucking mess every day." "There's some people left me out there to rot." "Sometimes, I just wanna find them and go say "hello" with a blowtorch." "Oh, it's a blowtorch now." "Yeah, they deserve it." "All right, that's true, John, and it might be fitting." "But it wouldn't be proper." "You know the difference between fitting and proper?" "Well, I'm not a trailer park poet like you, Kirby." "You're gonna have to tell me." "Well, it goes like this." "I could shove my thumb up your ass right now and it would probably fit." "Mmm-hmm." "But it wouldn't be proper." "That's sweet talk to an ex-con like me." "That coffee still on?" "Go fuck yourself." "Okay, you, too." "You know, we've been divorced three years?" "I come home from work with that man sitting at my kitchen table." "But I'm a single woman now and I got no intention of going back." "I've done my time." "You done a little time, too?" "Huh?" "Yup, just a little." "Um..." "That's your little girl?" "Mmm-hmm." "Why?" "You seen her?" "No." "Missing link tattoo." "Thisisacollectcall from ..." "Yourfucked-updaughter." "Toacceptthecharges,say,  "yes,"orpressone now ." "Yes." "Sorry,I did notunderstand." "Yes." "Doyouacceptthiscall ?" "Ye..." "Yes, you fucking robot!" "Yes, yes!" "Oh,fuck." "Dad?" "I'm here." "Where the hell are you?" "I just..." "I know that it's been a really long time, i just..." "Fuck." "Well, just stay on the line." "Where you been, kid?" "I left home, a while ago." "Yeah, I know." "You scared a lot of people." "I need cash fast." "Fuck." "Just enough so I can get lost, because I am fucking dead." "I'm like this fly that's about to get splattered on a windshield." "Doesthatmakeany sense?" "No." "Oh, fuck." "I know this is so unbelievably rude." "Normally,I wouldbe all, "oh,let'scatchup. "" "My point is, i took the bus as far as I can get tonight." "I figure I can get to Oregon by Monday." "Okay, yeah." "How much do you need?" "Two g's tops, if I can, you know, get settled and start working." "What kind of work were you looking for?" "Fuck." "Fuck." "I am so sorry about this." "Idon'tknow,ananny?" "Well, I got the money right here in my hand." "Just stay put till I get there." "That is so first class." "Icanmeetyou  inSantaMonica, onthirdandBroadway." "Okay." "Stay put." "My..." "They can take us now!" "I wanted to buy an eighth." "I hadn't seen him in so many years." "Lydia." "Hey, kid." "Come here." "Come on, sit down." "You're okay." "I got you now." "Thank you for coming so far." "Sure." "I'm gonna pay you back every dollar." "Okay." "I almost didn't recognize you in this car, i was... you know..." "I was expecting you to be holding on to the old hog." "Well, that's a parole violation now." "Oh." "Assholes." "Listen, kid." "Why don't you take a little nap?" "Fuck." "What the fuck." "I don't even know where I am and there are only five channels on your TV." "Yeah." "You swivel these ears here, and maybe get channel eleven." "Oh." "So, i went back in time." "If I turn myself in, do I get this reward?" "Nope." "What a rip." "Hey, hold still." "Sorry." "Some of my best work there." "Ah." "don quixote." "Mmm." "Picasso." "Kid's got education." "Yeah." "Wanted to put it in a magazine, but we couldn't find this motherfucker." "I ain't no male model." "No shit." "Yeah, but, dude, i think Sancho panza might have melanoma." "What?" "Why don't you go outside and play?" "You really should have that looked at, Dennis." "I can't stay much longer." "Uh-huh." "Oregon." "No, I don't have to go to Oregon," "I just have to go somewhere." "You pregnant?" "No." "That's so medieval." "But I don't wanna say too much 'cause it'd put you in a bad position." "You see, my boyfriend thought we could get married so that I wouldn't have to testify against him in court." "Pretty romantic." "No, no, he was so in love with me, i swear to god." "I don't even think there was a word for what was wrong with him." "And he's worried you'll say that in court?" "No." "Uh..." "It's terrible, he's gone." "He's, uh, dead." "Your boyfriend?" "He got shot." "Too bad." "In the neck." "Yeah." "Rough break." "I just feel numb." "You know?" "I don't even think it's hit me yet that all of this is happening." "Me neither." "Like, maybe I'm traumatized." "Could be." "That's why i have to keep moving." "He was really well connected, so there are a lot of people looking for my white ass right now." "Kid, can I say something?" "I know what it's like to come down this hard." "For 30 years, i was drinking and drugging and fighting like everybody had it in for me." "Your higher power can't do shit for me here, dad." "When I called you, you said that you had money." "Now, I'm not criticizing." "I'm just saying, it kind of looks like you miss the comforts of jail." "I can get you money, if that's what you want, kid." "But let me make a deal." "Give me a week." "One week, you stay clean." "You got people looking for you, who's gonna find you out here?" "The cops probably keep track of you." "It means I piss in a cup once a month." "My parole officer has a caseload like, you know?" "Give me a week." "If you're on your feet by Saturday," "I'll give you everything i got in this world." "But you gotta stop with the drama." " Hello?" " It's me." "God,whatnow?" "Iamdone,John." "30grandis  enoughforareward." "Ican'tdo this everytimeyouhave somestupidnew planaboutLydia." "I havealife." " I have people over." "You okay in there, kid?" "Yeah, I'm awesome, thanks." "Can I please just have one second to myself?" "Well, you can live in there if you like, just leave the purse outside." "Fuck." "I don't know what it is." "Come on, come on!" "You know this." "Listen." "You stumped me." "Dude!" "You must be tone-deaf!" "I don't know it." "Argh!" "Fuck." "Where you hiding the shit?" "Tell me right fucking now!" "This is not cute." "I worked too hard." "This place is clean." "I'm not going down for a game of fucking hide-and-seek!" "God damn it!" "You still got all your teeth." "How long you been doin' this?" "A month?" "You telling me the truth?" "Yes, that's the truth." "And it's Hank Williams." "That's what I was playing for you." "What the fuck?" "Hank Williams." "That's what I was playing for you before." "Mom said that you always loved him." "Yeah, well, i guess I just don't recognize him anymore." "Kirby." "I don't know what I stepped in, man, but she's here." "My little girl." "Youfoundher." "No, she found me." "But she's out of her fucking mind." "Well, I remember when i tried to reconnect with my sister and my ex-wife." "They were not ready to forgive me." "It was destructive." "It was the wrong time to try to make amends." "Make amends?" "Kirby, I'm trying to keep the kid away" "She'scomin'down hardoffsomethin'." "Oh." "Well, then she needs help, John." "Get her into detox." "Take her to the hospital." "Man, I don't know." "She's goin' on about some kind of shit, some sort of trouble she's in." "I don't know what's bullshit and what's not anymore, before I start filling out intake forms, you know?" "No, no, no, you're still thinkin' like a con." "Take her to the hospital." "Oh, comeon,Kirby." "I just met the girl for the first time in years," "You're the stranger." "You didn't meet her, and she didn't meet you." "Right now, she's nothin' but a chemistry experiment." "Youneedhelp withthis,John." "Well, then, why ask?" "Cuttinguptheveggieshere ." "allthesame sizesotheycan ... withparsley,thyme, fennelflakesandgarlic." "Can I help you gentlemen?" "Yeah." "We want tattoos." "I'm not open." "It says walk-ins." "We're walkin' in." "Nah." "Come back tomorrow." "I want some Nazi shit on my arm." "Or a big-ass heart with some bitch's name on it." "Yeah, on my dick." "We got money, old man." "It's bad business turning us away." "Yeah, come on, man." "Don't be judging us by our looks." "I'm not judging." "I'm just going to bed." "What if I wanted her name on my stomach?" "Lydia." "Why don't you all fuck off?" "We ain't got no problem with you." "What are you?" "Fuckin' citizens' police?" "Get off my fuckin' property, or I'm callin' the cops." "Motherfucker, you on parole." "Nobody calls the cops on parole!" "Don't you fucking turn your back on me, wood!" "Straight question, kid." "Can the police handle this?" "No, dad, they'll kill me in jail!" "And I won't make it." "And I don't know what to do!" "No shit." "That fuckin' punk puts a dent in my door, I'll kick the crap..." "I really fucked up." "Shit!" "Happy birthday, link." "It's good to finally meet your friends!" "Yeah, Kirby, you heard right." "Party at my place." "I'm gonna get blamed for this." "Breakin' parole." "Guaranteed." "Dad!" "What the fuck?" "Son of a bitch." "Shit stain!" "Get the fuck outta here!" "There it is, aggravated assault." "Return to custody." "See?" "I missed 'em for ya." "Attempted murder, that's what they'll say." "Thanks for looking me up, kid." "Dad, these guys are fucking psycho." "You think so?" "I'll see you on the inside, you chickenshit motherfucker!" "Hey, kid, they must've run out of bullets." "Fuck." "Hang on!" "Are you dead yet, motherfucker?" "You okay?" "Do you hear me?" "I told you not to turn your fucking back!" "We coming to get you, motherfucker!" "Who is that?" "It's the neighborhood watch." "You boys picked the wrong rednecks." "You go tell your boys and girls to put they hockey sticks away." "Tell me, is that shit still loaded?" "I don't know, let's find out." "Come on, man." "Let's go." "You know what, i admire you all, for protecting this fine trailer park community." "Come on,  ese, come on." "You know what?" "This one right here," "I'm gonna call it a tie." "I'll see you, all right?" "They will be back." "John!" "You okay?" "Fuck!" "Easy, easy, easy." "Are you hurt?" "There's glass everywhere." "Fuck, this place sucked before!" "John, what's going on?" "Who are those guys?" "Talk to me, buddy." "Tell me what's going on?" "Kirby, thank you!" "Come on." "Wait, you're leaving a crime scene?" "Kid's up to her neck in it, i can't give her up." "John, you gotta wait for the cops!" "John..." "Cops, yeah, we know how that's gonna turn out." "Fucking cops!" "John, you've always listened to me when it counted." "And I'll keep listening, but not here." "I'll call you from the road, Kirby, promise." "Sober as the judge." "John, it's really hard to be your sponsor." "Oh." "Don't do this to me." "Not now, you piece of shit." "Don't do this to me." "Come on." "You damn fucking..." "I'm sorry, dad." "God." "I'm so sorry." "Yeah." "Fuck." "I knew those guys from their ink." "There were two  sureños." "And the white guy with the "pen-1,"" "that's "public enemy number one."" "He's with the enforcement arm of the brotherhood." "Though they're not proud, they work with eme, but only if there's real money involved." "I got no idea how you pissed guys like that off." "You maybe talking to the feds, or something?" "No." "No, no, no." "I'm not talking to anybody but you." "Yeah, I know." "You never stop, but you don't say anything." "See, that was supposed to be an easy hit." "Take you out in the desert, rape ya, put a bullet in your brain, have a bologna sandwich." "Make a real day of it." "What do they want from you?" "Fuck!" "I'm afraid of what you'll think." "Oh." "I understand." "You don't wanna spoil the good impression you made so far." "It's not that funny." "Oh, my god!" "I'm gonna pee in my pants, dad." "You good?" "You all done?" "All wrung out?" "Finished?" "What's wrong with you?" "It's time to cut the shit." "What the fuck was so wrong at your mother's, that you had to run away with those guys?" "No, god!" "I left home a while ago." "I didn't even know those guys." "They sure seemed to know you." "Yeah, they worked for my boyfriend." "He was businessman, he was in real estate." "You tryin' to tell me we're being chased by realtors?" "No." "Well, he managed properties." "Mmm-hmm." "See, I met him at this party and we just had this connection." "He was older, he was like 30 and he was really a man." "Fuck." "I was living in a friend's walk-in closet, at the time." "And he wanted to help, so, he set me up in this cute little cottage in the valley." "And all I had to do was take care of it and look normal." "Mmm-hmm." "Except, his people would hide stuff in the house." "Like drugs, money, stuff like that." "So, he made you window dressing at one of his stash houses." "No, he really cared about me, dad." "He didn't mean for this." "I am the one who fucked up." "Kid, you got the mind-set of a battered housewife." "This one night, i had friends over at the house and things just blew up." "Someone broke the sliding glass door and some dick put his fist through a wall and..." "Something goes missing." "Mmm-hmm." "That's what my boyfriend said." "Mmm-hmm." "The people he worked for were furious." "But I swear, i never saw anything." "You didn't know." "Nothing?" "That's the truth." "No." "Yes." "Then he took me to another house, where, I guess, the tenants had stolen money out of the walls," "and he wanted me to kill this woman." "Maybe to show that I would do anything for him." "And I had the gun in my hand, and I didn't think." "I just turned, and I pulled the trigger." "Fuck." "And I..." "I killed him." "You killed the boyfriend..." "The guy?" "Yes." "Fuck." "And are you guys gonna need any help with any luggage tonight?" "Nope." "All right." "Traveling light." "Receipt." "Hey, man, where'd you find her?" "In the fucking delivery room." "Yeah, that's... okay." "Well, got your room with two double beds." "Checkout's at 11:00 and complimentary breakfast served till 10:00." "This part's a little tricky, so I'll show you." "You're just gonna loop all the way around to 216." "That's you." "I can show you if you want." "Yeah..." "No, that's all right." "Expertssayyou couldbepaying moreatthepump, ifthattrendcontinues." "Inotherlocalnews, acarthatcaughtonfire sparkeda quarter ofanacre..." "What's up?" "Hey." "Did you need something?" "No, I just wanted some air." "Oh." "Okay, well, we got plenty of that."

"Don'tturnon thelights, we'reprobablybeingwatched." "And hurry." "What the hell is this?" "Did you get the stuff in the bathroom?" "Yeah, I got your shit." "Good, 'cause the cops are coming." "Actually, they might be here already." "So, this cocksucker called the cops?" "No, god, dad!" "He's helping us." "Somebody's nice to you and you call him a cocksucker?" "It's all right, i got thick skin." "Hey, you know, i came on at 10:00." "That was already there when I got here, but knowing the day guy..." "Fuck!" "Get the fuck down!" "Day guy always fucks the night guy." "Shut up!" "They're everywhere." "We're gonna need a new ride." "Okay, I really shouldn't do this, but room 103's open, they won't see if you take the back door." "Here." "I didn't see you, you didn't see me." "And you're the sweetest person that I never met." "Grab the vin." "We'll call it in." "All right." "They're gonna impound the Nova." "Dad." "Yeah." "What's jail like?" "It's like summer camp." "I'm serious." "Yeah, they got a big swimming pool." "If you're good, they let you ride a pony." "The cocksucker told 'em." "They're gonna search every room." "Do they protect people?" "They're going into that room we were in." "Like if somebody was after me, would they make sure I was okay?" "Like a special cage, or something?" "Yeah, that's called PC." "It's for snitches and celebrities." "Yeah, maybe you'll be both." "Police!" "Open up!" "I can't get caught, dad." "I won't make it." "Yeah, I know." "You stick with me, I'm not going back either, okay?" "Who the fuck is in there?" "Go!" "Go, go, go!" "Who the fuck is that?" "Dad!" "Dad, dad, dad!" "I haven't done this in a long time." "Oh, fuck!" "Oh, my god!" "Dad!" "Lower your weapon!" "Dad!" "Dad!" "Oh, my god!" "Dad!" "Come on!" "Hurry!" "Go, go, go!" "What the fuck was that?" "Our first family car, and now we gotta dump it." "That guy with the ink all over his face?" "That wasn't some gangbanger, baby." "That was a  sicario." "Cartel soldier." "Used to hittin' cops and judges." "This boyfriend you killed?" "I heard the whole goddamn love story, now, what's his name?" "Going on a year out of the joint, and here I am in a truck full of Mexicans." "How do you spend your entire life in the California penal system and not speak any Spanish?" "What do you mean by that?" "What, you organizing a fucking union?" "What do you have against them?" "Nothing." "Well, okay." "Okay, well, they come up here, they're illegal and they take my job." "Ah." "So, you pick oranges for a living?" "Nope, but I'm sure someone does." "Nope, not true." "In fact, I bet you that no white person has ever picked a piece of fruit off of a tree, ever." "What about Eve?" "Eve was not white." "Oh, fuck." "What?" "You think that the garden of Eden was in Norway?" "Okay." "Here." "I gotta ask about somebody inside here, so you just wait." "This is a bar, dad." "You're the one who needs a chaperone." "I'll be fine, just stay out here." "She ain't 21, boss." "I'm looking for a guy named tom Harris, people used to call him "preacher."" "He still come here?" "Look, I'm an old buddy of his," "I'm just trying to hook up with him again." "Does this look like a dating service?" "Good enough for me." "What'll you have?" "She's having water." "He lived in the foothills, last I heard." "One of the originals, Fontana chapter." "So, then the flea wakes up and he's back in the hells angels mustache..." "Kirby, I'm in a bar." "Oh,John." "Well, that's not the worst of it." "There's some serious fucking people tailing us and I don't know how." "What does the guy say?" "Look at that ass car go." "This fucking kid's a carnival, man." "She's every loser's lucky day." "Look, I'm goin' to preacher's." "I'm heading there." "John,I feltlike youwerethefirst personI reallyhelped." "That'sthegod's honesttruth." "Look, I'm not dying, kirb." "I'm just in El centro." "Look,tellme  whereyouare, givemean address, I'mgonnacomeget you ." "I'll call you back, okay?" "Wait,John,no ." "Excuse me, buddy." "Easy, boss." "Oh, my..." "What is the matter?" "God!" "You pulled my arm out of its socket." "What?" "Are you relapsing?" "What, you wanna talk, talk here." "Away from those animals." "Okay." "Look." "I've been thinking and I have a plan." "I know that it's a crime not to report a crime, but other than that, what have you done?" "I mean, that warrant is for me." "You could go home." "You could just tip the trailer back and  voila." "I don't have to take you down with me." "I was talking to these guys and I think that i can cross the border at otay mesa." "Pretty little white chick down in Tijuana, with no money and a price on her head." "Now that's a hell of a plan, Lydia." "You don't think i could take care of myself?" "Hell, no." "Not even in this dump here, let alone in Guadalajara or some other turd factory down south." "Within a week, you'll be turning tricks." "That is the most insulting thing that anybody has ever said to me." "Well, I bet it's not." "How else are you gonna make money?" "Look, look, kid." "I'm just..." "I'm just trying to help you think straight, all right?" "I know what it's like to have the shit come down on you, okay?" "People get caught when they make mistakes and I just don't want you to do anything stupid, okay?" "About all i know is running." "You spent nine years in prison." "How the fuck is that running?" "Okay, surviving." "I just wanted you to go back to your little place and not have to do any more time." "I'm a murderer, dad." "Yeah, I know you are, kid." "And you'll face god for it and so will I." "But not yet." "You let me let you in on a little secret." "I haven't had so much fun since I was 15, stole a car and drove to Miami beach." "This shit's a party to a dirtbag like me." "So, stop feeling sorry for yourself and start listening." "This buddy of mine, he's rich, he's got connections and he owes me." "Now, he'll help us if i can find out where he is, i don't know." "And these skid-marks over here, they know but they're not talkin' and..." "I got the address." "Thank you!" "Gonna hop up through there." "There's a lot of firepower around here, but there's a lot of bullshit, too." "Here, hop through here." "Fuck you." "That's not funny." "More bullshit?" "No, those are probably real." "Follow me." "Coming." "Son of a bitch." "That's me." "So, they let you out." "This is my daughter." "They do grow up, don't they?" "Well, you might as well go on inside the hangar and say hi to him." "Careful, you don't give him a heart attack." "One of those yours?" "Yeah, in another life." "Fuck." "Hey." "Be with you in a minute." "Let me just finish up here." "Well." "I expected you two years ago." "Yeah, stingy parole board, you know how it is." "It's my daughter, Lydia." "You're kidding." "Lee, I knew you when you were just a pup." "How are you, sweetie?" "I'm fine, thanks." "Yeah." "Mmm-hmm." "Still backing the losers," "I see." "Nazis and confederates." "Yeah, yeah, all losers make me money." "Let me show you around." "So, what's this collectibles horseshit a front for?" "You selling down south?" "Ak-47s and the like?" "No, no, I don't sell that commie shit." "You know the walls along the border?" "They're building them with the landing pads we used in 'nam." "Think about that." "That metal i used to jump on in the rice paddies, they're using now to keep the taco vendors off my lawn." "So, who you selling to these days?" "You know, i love you like a son, link." "But I'm not gonna answer questions from somebody i haven't seen in a coon's age." "We had a deal." "I want my bike back and I want my money." "Which money is that?" "I kept my mouth shut a long time." "You were always the strong, silent type." "You know, the boys should be by later on." "Why don't you hang around, play catch up?" "What the fuck for?" "I've been sober two years." "Well, maybe someone would like to witness that with their own eyes." "Yeah!" "Shit!" "Well, can i get you anything?" "A soda, or something maybe?" "I'm fine." "Yo, baby!" "Come here!" "I bet you feel like you're surrounded by savages." "No." "No, I really appreciate everything." "Thank you." "You do?" "Huh?" "Mmm." "I bet you don't know what the hell you're looking at, or listening to." "These are the last of the survivors." "The last of the kind." "They know this little patch of desert's gonna be here long after the rest of this country cannibalizes itself." "Okay and why is that gonna happen?" "Okay, well, it'll happen because most of you people are too goddamn comfortable to see it." "You kids don't understand." "This country buys out the subversives." "It turns the rebels into fashion trends." "It did it with the angels, it's doing it with rap." "And the corporations package it up and sell it online." "Hundred dollars a t-shirt for suburban little princesses just like you." "You know what?" "You grew up with your mama." "You never knew the world your daddy rode in." "But your mama wasn't always rich." "She started out with us." "But she married up the ladder." "She became a hood ornament for the best cars." "How long you been away from home?" "I know all about why little rich girls leave their pretty things behind." "When a mosquito bites you, it leaves an enzyme that other mosquitos can smell." "And I can smell it on you, kid." "Everyone can." "So, you can run forever." "Forever." "But the worst and, I mean, the worst goddamn people in the world know that scent and they'll follow it." "Can you dig it?" "Yeah." "Sorry to leave you out there with them animals, but I was keepin' an eye on ya." "So, is this the old hog?" "This is her." "'97 softail with a 570 lift cam." "Shaved the fenders, chromed the front and dropped her two inches." "Beautiful." "Hmm." "I feel kind of jealous," "I thought i was an only child." "Do you think he's gonna give it back to you?" "Oh, kid, he owes me a lot more than this." "I did a seven year stretch, keeping quiet for that motherfucker." "Then I got done again for shanking some fucking nobody." "Otherwise I'd have been out." "You got raised by three stepfathers." "Should've been me." "I don't know what to tell you." "So many enemies, so many vendettas." "Fills up your fucking soul, you know?" "Play this game with its own set of stupid fucking rules." "You give your life to it, it's over." "And I got nothing to show for it." "There's nothing i can even say," "I made mistakes and you suffered." "I'm sorry I wasn't there for you, baby." "Morning, link." "What the fuck is wrong with you?" "Wake the kid." "Yeah." "This is a loaded firearm and I will shoot." "The past is long gone." "Yeah, okay." "Hey, baby." "Wake up, rise and shine." "Hey." "Cut it out, will you?" "Quit it." "Just..." "Okay, there's some kind of kidnapping going on." "I don't know." "Fuck." "I'm up." "You gotta be shittin' me." "No, I'm not shittin' ya." "Things have changed,  hombre." "I can't let an opportunity like this slide by." "See a nickel on the ground these days, you pick it up." "For 30 grand." "Yeah, well, 30 g's will fill a lot of holes around here,  compadre." "I do appreciate your loyalty in the past." "I really do." "But we gotta be professional about this." "We're not gonna turn you in." "We're gonna follow the letter of the law." "She can run on home to her gold-digging mama and you're free to go." "Take a hike." "Hit the road, Jack." "Know what I mean?" "You fucking virus." "If you turn us in, the cops will bust you." "Shut up!" "Goddamn brat!" "I was running the fucking Coachella valley before you were an itch in your daddy's sack!" "My life isn't an instagram, for Christ's sake." "I'm in the fucking history books!" "Vietnam, 19th engineer combat battalion, look it up." "Look it up!" "I've dug up more fucking mines that I could've blown the moon up with!" "Do you understand that?" "Get the fuck outta here!" "Get 'em out of here, cherise, before I lose my goddamn Patience." "Get 'em outta here!" "Keep talking, you senile motherfucker." "Motherfucker?" "Yeah." "I wouldn't be if you keep your mother home at night!" "Fuck you!" "How'd you feel with a fucking bayonet in your cracked skull, you old cock-sucking..." "Shit!" "Get outta here!" "Here's your Nazi bullshit!" "Calm down!" "Let me tell you something, pal." "I still love you." "You were the best foot soldier i ever fucking had." "How 'bout I shoot you right now?" "With your daughter right outside?" "Yeah, I might." "No, you won't, you can't." "You're past that." "I watched it, I saw it." "You've changed." "But back in the day..." "Back in the day, i kept my fucking mouth shut for you, old man!" "That's what I did back in the day." "You were like a fucking father to me!" "Back the fuck up!" "Roll it the fuck back, cocksuck!" "You know what I'm looking for." "Where's my keys?" "See what we got here." "What're you doin'?" "Stealing from me, link?" "Stealing?" "You stole every goddamn thing I ever had." "Everything!" "Now look at you." "You're so fucking broke and pathetic," "I can't even kill you for it." "You even stole that from me!" "Stay put." "Dad!" "Go!" "Well, they're fucking shooting at us!" "The gun!" "We're good, kid." "Hang on to me." "Oh, shit!" " Yeah, good idea." " Okay." "Hey, kid." "We gotta shake a leg, you comin'?" "Hey, Kirby." "I'm just checking in." "I'll call you back, okay?" "Can't give you a number here." "We're on the road." "We're safe, sober, both of us." "Call you back." "Thanks, man." "Hey, look, kid, you're crashing now." "Maybe you should take a nap?" "Do you ever think about what the world would be like without you?" "If I just went ahead and killed myself, this would all be over." "Oh, so, that's where we're at." "Givin' up." "Fine." "You kill yourself, then I'll kill myself." "I'll take some innocent people with me." "How'd that be?" "You think I'm kidding, dad, but I've tried." "Yeah, so have I, plenty of times." "Where does that get us?" "I took all of my stepdad's pills when I was 12." "Girls take pills when they want somebody to find 'em." "I tried to hang myself when I was 10-years-old." "Well, that didn't work very well." "Do you understand what I'm trying to tell you?" "Yeah, sure, congratulations." "I was 10-years-old!" "Yeah, I knew a 10-year-old kid." "Killed his whole family with a rock." "What the fuck does that mean?" "Why don't you ever listen to me?" "I'm listening, okay?" "Look, feel this, right up here." "No." "Yes." "Come on, it's important." "Feel it, come on." "Oh, my god!" "What is that?" "Yeah, drove my bike off a cliff on the pch, split my head wide open." "Now, the point is, i meant to do it." "But they saved my ass anyway and that's a steel plate in my head." "And look at this." "No, I don't want to." "You're a fucking cyborg." "I opened up my wrist in prison, then I got sepsis." "Spent two months in the prison hospital watching game shows and then I really wanted to kill myself." "All right, you win." "You either wanna wake up in the morning, or you don't." "And if you can't find a way to live with yourself, well then, why run?" "Why come to me?" "Why do any of this?" "I don't wanna die." "What was that?" "I don't wanna die." "That's right." "You don't wanna die." "'Cause you're a 17-year-old kid and you got a lot to live for." "Okay?" "You may not wanna wake up tomorrow, but the day after that might just be great." "Might be the best fucking day of your life, you know?" "You don't wanna miss it, right?" "Great, keep doing the hair." "I'll be back in an hour or two, i got a meeting." "I need to talk to an old friend." "If something happens to you, how am I gonna know?" "I'll give you Kirby's number, okay?" "If something happens, you call Kirby..." "So, if we get separated, I'm supposed to call your sponsor?" "Kid, look." "This is something i really need to do." "I promise I'll come back." "I'll be back before you're a blonde, okay?" "Okay." "See ya." "I lost my ID." "Here to see rios." "I know." " Dad?" " Lydia?" "Kirby?" "What happened?" "Isyour fatherthere?" "No, he's not back yet." "Did he call you?" "Yeah,earlier,he did."

"Kiss me, no tongues." "How are ya?" "You are one ugly dude." "Shit!" "You look like a public defender." "Yeah." "Please grow back the beard, please!" "Yeah, you need me to teach you to tie a tie." "No, no, no." "It's my little girl." "That guy I asked you about." "Did you get the message?" "Nephew of Alfonso angel-Diaz." "El padrino." "Still running the family business from his cell in juarez." "The kid was keeping stash houses for him in la." "The cartel sent him there to get rid of him." "He was too loud, too proud, causing problems with the family." "Well, he was causing problems for my little girl, too." "He's not with us anymore." "So, you don't need a paternity test?" "No, but I do need protection for her." "Any of his crew sets foot inside, they won't make it across the yard." "Yeah, but there's some professional on her tail." "Some cleaner from south of the border." "This punk accused her of stealing." "Now, I thought it was just his guys that wanted her dead, but it's more than that." "Why would they send this kind of firepower?" "Don't you get it, bro?" "Jonah was taking the money and I'm not talking a few grand, I'm talking millions." "And he was pinning it on her and his other tenants." "Okay." "Thought she was an easy fucking mark." "But you know what?" "He's lucky he's dead." "'Cause what they would do to him, be a lot worse, bro." "A lot worse." "Anybody sets foot on the inside, I'll deal with it." "You need a line to  El padrino, I'll get it for you." "But you gotta teach your girl some judgment." "Then you gotta teach her how to hide." "She gotta live right, brother, clean and straight." "'Cause people like this, they can see in the dark." "You got to teach her how to stay in the sunlight." "Stay loose, bro." "Get loose." "Doing my best." "Hello." "Lydia?" "Youdidn'texpect ittobe me ?" "Jonah?" "How'sthemovie?" "What movie?"

"I don't know what else I can say to you." "I was good to you, Lydia." "I put you in a nice place." "I gave you everything you needed." "I took better care of you than anybody in your life." "And you tried to kill me." "Look, come..." "This is still bleeding." "Come here." "No." "I have your name on my heart and you can't even come close to me?" "Where is he?" "You try to run, and we're gonna have to kill you." "Hey!" "Lydia!" "Come on, kid." "Pick up." "Where are you, kid?" "Come on." "Fuck." "Okay." "Come on, Kirby, come on." "Kirby!" "What're you doing, man?" "What's happening?" "Kirby?" "Good news, old man." "Your sponsor says you should start drinking again." "Who the fuck is this?" "Talk to your friend." "Hello?" "Kirby?"

"You're a fucking psycho, but you know one thing." "She's the last streak of sunlight you're ever gonna see in your whole fucking life." "Shut the fuck up." "You know nothing about me." "Yeah, I do." "I know all about you." "That's why you're gonna stay on the fucking phone." "Whateveryou're gonnadowithLydia, you need to do something else first." "You need to deal with me." "Really?"

"I'll call you in 10 minutes to this number and give you a meeting point." "No, you put her on the phone or no deal." "Put her on the fucking phone right now!" "Okay." "Dad!"
