All language subtitles for Full Moon In Blue Water

[Willie Nelson's
"Don't Get Around Much Anymore"]

[projector rolling]

[music ends]

Floyd!

[Floyd] Hey!

Morning, Floyd.

Hey.

What's ya got?

A movie.

[Charlie] Better times, eh?

Floyd, do you remember
telling me

you'd be interested
in selling this place

-if I could find a buyer?
-No.

[Floyd laughs]

[Charlie]
Well I think I found a buyer.

Look at your father in law...

Like a puff.

Lucky to survive,
a man at that age.

A stroke like he had,

it's usually bringing out
the trumpets.

[Floyd] You can't tell.

A little more than a year ago,

half the population
of Blue Water.

Old Dorothy's
just dancing up a storm.

[laughs]

That woman
can really bring 'em in.

[Charlie] Too bad about her
disappearing like that.

Uh...

So is this about a buyer?

Some guy from out of town.

Thinks an auto part store
would fly here.

[both laugh]

[inhales deeply]

Well, it's not for sale.

Want a cup of coffee?

He's willing to go
as high as 45.

Oh, come on, Charlie.

The place is a goldmine.

Or it was.

[Charlie] Could be again.

I don't know, that's good money
for this place, Floyd.

You know, I read the paper
the other day

about this guy
from Portland, Oregon.

Got himself hit on the head
by a limb.

He wondered around in California
for three and a half years

until he came to his senses.

But he's back home now.

He's fine.

Everybody thought he was dead.

Man's got to accept facts,
Floyd.

Facts?

[laughs]

I'll tell you,

facts is a dead body.

There is no dead body.

Going on a year, Floyd.

Listen...

If I was gonna sell,
I couldn't take less than 90.

If I was going to sell,
which I ain't.

[Charlie] Ninety?

Can I give you a little advise?

[Floyd] Charlie,
I got a lot of work to do.

[Charlie] Take what you can
and run.

I'll be honest with you, Floyd.

Talk's around you've got bills,
you've got back taxes,

County won't hold
with back taxes, not forever.

They'll sell this place
right from under you.

They'll get their taxes.

[Charlie] Sad sight seeing a man
outside this place,

suitcase,

waiting for a ride
to God knows where.

Who in the hell is that?

Can't live in the past forever.

I see you, Charlie.

Up to you.

[screaming]
Take it easy old tiger!

Don't you old tiger me!

You little monkey fucker!

Is that anybody we know?

You know, it's after ten.

Where in the heck is that Jimmy?

My God, was that Jimmy?

No, that wasn't Jimmy.

That was Charlie O'Donnell.

Now come on,
you know who that was.

So who is Jimmy?

[pop music playing on stereo]

It's hot down here.

[woman] It's hot up here.

That should do it.

Sure?

Well, not forever but...

It should hold at least
until you get to a muffler shop.

Wow! I love that word.

"Muffler",
don't you love that word?

I guess.

Muffler... Yeah I like that.

-Jimmy?
-Huh?

Could I ask you
one more little favor?

Sure.

If I turn this thing off,

I'm never gonna get
it started again.

Oh, do you want me
to check the battery?

Would you just run inside
and bring me an iced tea?

I can do that.

I'd love you
if you could do that.

I will be right back.

[Annie] With lemon!

Aha.

I don't stay
where I'm not wanted.

A lot of people do.
But me, I figured,

"Hey, look, man,
if I'm not welcome

then that's it", you know.

I'm gone. I'll leave.

I need an iced tea
with lemon to go.

-Where have you been?
-Annie Gormer.

-Her muffler fell off.
-[Floyd] You're kidding.

No. She's sitting in a car
right there.

[Floyd] Are you working for me

or you're working
for Annie Gormer?

You, silly!

[Virgil] There is a hot woman
out there, boy.

Yeah.

And you know
what her favorite word is?

You know
what her favorite word is?

Muffler.

[Jimmy laughs]

Is that hers?

-I'll take it.
-Hey, wait a second.

Don't go anyway,
I'll save you the trip, boy.

No, well she didn't pay.

Put it on my tab.

Hey, man!

Let him go, the guy's getting
to be a fixture around here.

Somebody ought to teach
Virgil some manners.

Put it on my bill,
put it on my bill!

He ain't paid his bill
since ever probably!

Oh, don't worry about it.

[Jimmy] Comes in here, he helps
himself to whatever he wants.

He puts his feet
up on everything, Floyd.

Shit, fuck!

Can you watch
your language, please?

Somebody ought to teach
Virgil some manners.

[game machine music
starts playing]

Come on.

[grunting]

[coin dropping]

[door creaking]

Floyd!

-Floyd!
-What?

Mind if I teach Virgil
some manners?

What did I tell you
about that gun?

Oh, it's just a twenty two.

Well, I don't care, put it away!

It's just a pee-shooter,
it's all.

Put it away!

You're lucky, very lucky.

[smack]

I mean, you know,
we might need it.

Somebody could come in
and he wouldn't hurt a fly.

-Yeah.
-That's right

and the next thing you know
there's a bunch of bloody bodies

lying all over the place.

Do me a favor, would you
take him down into the bay

and play some chess with him?

Will you do that?

Okay.

Hey, Floyd!

[Jimmy] Floyd!

Did you see the late show
last night?

Gregory Peck.

"I'm gonna smoke this cigarette
and then I'm going to kill you".

That gun better be away!

Gregory Peck, do you know
who he reminds me of?

Who?

My brother Ed in Beaumont.

He's manager
of a Pizza Hut already.

Your brother Ed,
he used to drink a bottle of ink

and then he'd smile

and it looked like
he had no teeth.

He's a real jerk.

[Floyd laughs]

But if he's such a jerk

and he's the manager
of a Pizza Hut

-what does that make you then?
-A jerk.

Just have the man home
for dinner, will you?

I don't like people
chopping on my brother, Floyd.

Then don't tease a man
like you do.

At least he got out
and stayed out,

not too many people
can say that.

[wheelchair rattles]

He's my brother

and he reminds me
of Gregory Peck.

Here we go.

[seagulls squealing]

Let's go!

[ferry honking]

[engine ruffling]

[indistinct chatter]

[car engine starts]

Go.

[ferry honking]

How'd it go?

Oh, he'll sell.

We just need
to squeeze him a little.

I told you to close that deal.

He wants ninety, Jack.

So, give it to him.

[boat keeps honking]

That'll cost us forty five each.

I can get it from him
for forty five total.

Tell me something, Charlie.

When you look at Floyd's place,
what do you see?

Ah... old run-down bar
that's had it's days.

You know what I see?

Possibilities.

That ferry?
It's a thing of the past.

Once that bridge goes up,

we're talking
skyrocket land prices.

Businesses, hotels,
maybe even a kiddy park.

You think?

I didn't get appointed
County Commissioner

by being stupid.

I've done everything I can.

I've got us every other
available piece of property

over there.

None of which diddly shit
as long as Floyd's place

is laying in the middle of them.

So, put the squeeze on him.

Call in his taxes.

We'd better just give him
the 90,000

and forget about it.

You put the squeeze on him,
and I guarantee you

I'll have that place
within twenty four hours.

[Jimmy] Oh, I'm never going back
in that house again, General,

no, sir.

[somber music]

[General]
What the hell is the hold up?

Answer me,
what's the damn delay?

Nothing, nothing.

Well, say that then, will you?

[General laughs]

What do you say, General?

What do you say
we walk the plank today, ah?

There you go!

[Jimmy makes engine sounds]

[Jimmy screams excitedly]

We're on it now!

[both scream excitedly]

[whooping and howling]

Oh, God!

[both laugh]

I would never let
anything happen to you,

you know that.

Hey... hey, Floyd.

It's Jimmy.

Whoever the hell you are.

Let's do it again.

[both screaming excitedly]

[playful music]

[projector rolling]

[laughing]

[inaudible]

Jimmy?

Hi, sugar.

[laughs]

Dorothy?

I'm soaked to the skin,
I'm afraid.

[Charlie] Are you alright?

That's a matter of opinion.

We got any clean towels?

Bring me a hot cup of coffee,
would you, honey bear?

[soft piano music]

[laughs]

I knew it.

Honest to God, I knew it.

What am I doing getting coffee
there's plenty of time for that,

Dorothy?

Come on out here.

I've got
a 12 year old bottle of scotch

out here that's waiting to...

Dorothy?

[knocks on door]

[water running]

[projector's film flapping]

[Jimmy] Your move.

[General grunts]

[General]
Well, move me, damn it.

[Jimmy] Alright.

Yeah.

[General] Oh!

[Jimmy makes whooshing sounds]

[Jimmy laughs]

Guess what, guess what!

I don't have time
for any guessing games,

you flee brain.

Oh, no! I'll give you a hint,
I'll give you a hint.

Starting Monday...

I'll never be late
for work again.

Know why?

No, I don't know...

Because I'm buying
Georgie Marone's old Galaxy.

That's why.

What the hell is a Galaxy?

It's a car, my car.

I figured I give him $50
down tonight

and the rest when...

When I get paid on Monday.

And it's your move.

Alright, could you move me?

Okay!

[Jimmy grunts]

[General] Oh, God!

[Jimmy laughs]

I never owned my own car
in my life.

Big deal.

Big deal?
It's your move, "Big deal".

[General exhales]

Move me there.

Alright, yep, there you go.
See?

-[Snap]
-[General] Oh.

[woman over TV] That's
when you discovered

-you had bone cancer.
-[man] Exactly.

And what did you do next?

[bus brakes squealing]

Hey, Floyd!

The anger wore
off after...

Louise!

Catch you later?

I'll be here.

Alright, be good!

Sit down, you guys, Sit down!

[Louise] Bye!

We talked about life and death,
and dignity.

Alternatives.

Which is when
we decided on the pills.

The sleeping pills.

[man] Right.

[woman]We both talked
the situation over.

We agreed
that selective suicide...

What's that?

...was the only
dignified alternative.

Guy in the suit
wants to kill himself

before he dies.

Be kind of tough to kill himself
after he dies.

[Digby laughs]

What do you got?

Two bologna and cheese
and six bud.

Did you total it?

Yeah, it comes to $10.99
including tax.

Just leave the money.

Well, I'm a little short
this week, Floyd,

but I wrote it in the book.

This is the most amazing thing
I've ever seen.

What?

Just watch him
take his own life.

To them I say:
"Walk a mile in my shoes".

[phone rings]

Phone.

-Floyd, the phone rang.
-I hear.

-Yeah?
- Floyd?

Yeah?

Jack Hill.

Listen, buddy,
we've got a little problem here

of back taxes.

Oh, what's the problem.

Well about $5,280
is the problem.

I'm gonna have
to put your place up.

Oh... When?

Starting Monday, I'm afraid
you're out of business.

Unless you can come up
with something.

Life, death and you.

[TV music theme]

[Jimmy] Oh, oh!

-Checkmate!
-Where?

-Right there, open your eyes.
-You cheated.

No! That's four games to zip.

Set 'em up

[Floyd] Jimmy!

Oh, Floyd!

I thought I told you to have
the man home for dinner.

[Jimmy]
We didn't have any dinner.

What time is it?

Forget it, I'll take him back.

I don't want you
to be mad at me.

Don't worry about it.

So.. So I'll see you tomorrow?

-Tomorrow is Saturday.
-That's okay.

Look, would you kind of be able
to pay me a little something?

-I mean...
-We'll talk about it.

I mean,
it's been over three weeks.

I said we'll talk about it.

It doesn't have to be all.
Half is fine.

-Can we talk about it?
-Okay, I'll see you.

[screaming] Checkmate!

[General] Don't you ever
sneak up on a man like that.

Checkmate, checkmate, checkmate!

Let's get him.

[Jimmy screams playfully]

[soft guitar music]

Floyd!

Floyd!

Man wonders
why he can't do business.

Boy, oh, boy, oh, boy.

[whistling]

Floyd?

God, I love that woman.

Huh? Who's that?

Your daughter.

Dorothy.

God, she's dead.

[Floyd] You read in the paper
about that man in Oregon.

[General] There are no real man
around anymore,

God damn it.

This goes to prove nothing
is certain until is certain.

Man are just
a bunch of titless females,

if you ask me.

[scoffs] God!

[General]
Take it easy for God's sakes.

You are some business man,
you know that?

Tip over her rock.

What the hell is this?

What does it look like?

What are you trying to do,
match the national debt here?

How'd you get in here?

-[General] She broke in!
-[Louise] Shut up!

-I had a key made.
-[Floyd] You what?

I had a key made.

I had to just in case,
I forgot to tell you.

That's breaking and entering!

Call the cops!

Hush, old man.

[Floyd laughs]

Taking some liberties,
aren't you, Louise?

Am I?

Picked up your fiddle.

Yeah, I saw it.

Been sitting over
there at Straus' Music

ever since you had it fixed.

Well, it could've
just stayed there.

Oh, I got it.

How much do I owe you?

A couple of bucks, forget it.

Why don't you just put it
in the book?

[Louise] Ha, ha!

Well...

[Louse huffs]

I gotta sell this place, Louise.

Well, that's stupid.

It's either that or give it up
to back taxes.

Sell the place and then what?

Huh?

What are you gonna do then?

Get a job at Kroger's
bagging groceries?

Sit in some factory all day

stapling your fingers together?

You know, all you know
is this place, Floyd.

The merchant Marine
and this place,

that's all you know.

You could make this place
work again, you know that?

With my help, you could make
this place work again.

[Floyd] Mhm.

Really, Floyd.

I figure we could
keep this place open

may be 16 hours a day.

Ten in the morning
to two at night.

Well, you got it
all figured out, ain't you?

Well, I've given it
some thought, yeah.

Well, why don't you
talk to those people

over there at Junction Texaco
about staying up late, huh?

Or Georgie Marone
at Stereo Lounge.

Both those places have been
robbed in the last four months.

At least they are successful.

Well, yeah, they are successful

cause the busybodies
in this town

will flock any place
at the sign of tragedy.

Alright, so say you do sell
this place,

what are you going to do
with this old dinosaur?

Louise!
This is my father-in-law here.

You're gonna wrap him up
in aluminum foil

and put him out
for the trash man?

I've got a big deal of respect
for this man.

Ah, you need a partner, Floyd!

Somebody
with some business smarts.

I don't need a partner.

What I need is Dorothy.

Dorothy is dead, Floyd.

Well, that's really nice,
Louise, really nice feeling.

Well, it's true.

We don't know that, do we?

Floyd, now sit down here
a minute,

I want to talk to you.

[Louise exhales]

Now look at me, Floyd.

You know, I've been living
at home all my life

and driving that damn school bus
going on nine years now.

But I have managed
to save up $63,000.

And I'm willing to put
every penny of it

into this here operation, okay?

I can't take that, Louise,
you know my devotions.

Come on, Floyd.

Screw that, just take it.

I know you're thinking
these devotions

don't seem to stop him
from certain things

of a sexual nature, but...

I'm not thinking that.

It's different, Louise,
you know,

physical desire...

is something a man can't have
any control over,

you know, you're hungry
and you eat.

It has nothing to do
with devotions.

Yeah, well...

Forget it.

Forget it,
let's just do something else.

-You want to?
-Yeah

Let's...

[Louise exhales]

I don't know.

What?

Want to go sit down
on the porch?

Why don't you fire up
your fiddle and play me

a little bit of your orange
blossom special, alright?

Ah, that's festive, Louise.

I'm not really feeling festive.

Let's go to the pictures then,

we'll let the General watch
the place, alright? Come on.

Who's gonna watch the General?

Damn it, Floyd.

I went through this
whole routine with my mother

I said: Friday night,
don't wait up for me, no ma'am.

So she goes into her routine
with the dry heaves

and I got to sneak out the back.

You know, 36 year old
and I sneak out the back door.

[Floyd laughs]

Got a new blouse on even.

Yes, it's new.

This is 100% acetate, Floyd,

with the look
of real Japanese silk.

[both laugh]

Really.

Louise, we're open for business
out there.

[Floyd laughs]

Come on, Floyd,

give it a feel, honey.

[soft romantic music]

[grunting] Oh, a man has to do,
what a man has to do.

[Louise] Oh, Floyd!

[Louise laughs
in the background]

[Louise] Ouch, Floyd!

[General grunts]

[crickets chirping]

[groans]

[peeing]

[General howls]

[howling and barking]

[country music]

[indistinct chatter
and laughter]

Hey, what's the matter, boy?
Finally, get smart enough

to come to where
the living congregate?

[both laugh]

-Real comedians.
-Hey, Jimmy.

Thanks for the ice tea today.

Oh, it's alright!

[indistinct chatter]

Georgie!

[inaudible]

Let's walk outside here
a minute, alright?

There she is.

I tell you,
you won't have any problems

-getting a woman in this car.
-Oh, man!

Here you go.

It's all here?

No...

I only count $50.

Yeah, $50 down.

We agreed on $250, son.

No, no, you told me
the rest on Monday.

Well, Jimmy, see,
I gotta change of plans.

I'm gonna be in Mexico
by Monday.

No, but you told me.

Yeah, well, I don't care
what I told you, alright?

I'm telling you now.

[Jimmy groans]

Yeah.

Look at this cherry.

I can go in there and sell this
in nothing flat.

No, no, don't do that.
Don't do that.

Well, I'm just telling you
that I could.

No, no, I'll get the money.

I'll get the money.

-Where?
-From Floyd.

-Floyd?
-That's right.

[Georgie laughs]

Talking about getting money out
of Floyd, they'll slap you back

-in the crazy house.
-Hey, no, no.

Don't say that!

No, it's not right,
don't say that.

Don't.

$250 or I sell the car.

Oh, no.

[seagulls squealing]

[door creaks]

Catch you later?

I'll be here.

Catch you later.

[General] I ain't deaf,
you know.

[car engine starts]

Do you want some breakfast?

I heard the whole thing.

[General chuckles]

The whole kit and kaboodle
that went on there.

We was just talking, that's all.
We was just talking.

Didn't sound like no language
I've ever heard. [laughs]

We were discussing
current events.

[General] Yeah, right.

[Floyd] Then we fell asleep

and then we woke up.

Life goes on.

Sounds like the second coming
of Judas, if you ask me.

May be you oughta have
your ears cleaned out,

you know,
a man has his devotions.

You sounded pretty damn devoted
last night, didn't ya?

[imitating] "Oh, I want
ya, I want ya, I want ya."

[General cackles]

Just have some breakfast,
will you?

We'll watch some movies
later on.

I don't wanna watch
no damn movies.

I don't want to watch you
watch no damn movies neither!

And I don't wanna watch
no dead woman frolic around!

May be I'm not just watching her
frolic around, you know,

maybe I'm looking
for something...

A clue.

Well, that's bull crap.

Yeah, well, you don't wanna
watch any movies?

Take yourself off outside there,

take some air,
let the stink go off you.

[General giggles]

You treat me like a stray cat
around here,

-Hi.
-Hi.

[keys clinking]

Missed you last night.

I went out.

I didn't sleep a wink.

You should take a pill.

[Lois] You were over at Floyd's?

Thank the Lord your father
is not around.

Break the poor man's heart.

Can I come in?

I wanna jump in the tub.

You know, Louise,

men don't buy the cow

when they can get
the milk for free.

[Louise shuts door]

[exhales]

What do you want, frizzle dick?

Floyd!

Floyd.

Be right with you.

I need to talk to you.

Yeah, well,
I need to talk to you too.

-Have a seat.
-Well, Floyd,

I don't mean to be a pain,
but I was wondering,

do you think you could
pay me something?

Uh...

I mean, I got it figured
that you owe me for 75 hours.

-Are you alright?
-Yeah.

I got it figured here
that you owe me for 75 hours.

At $3.85 an hour.

Which comes to $200.75.

I was wondering, Floyd,
if you could pay me may be $200.

[Floyd] Um...

-Right now?
-Yeah.

Well, I don't have it right now.

Oh, I'll take a check.

Yeah...

Anything.

Uh...

What do you need $200 for?

You live at home,
you eat at home.

I need it.

I'm buying a car.

Oh!

Why don't I give you $5000
in a couple of weeks.

Five thousand.

In a couple weeks.

No fooling, Floyd.

No, no, no fooling,
I'll give you $5000.

You know, you can buy
a brand new car.

You can get yourself

one of those Yugoslavian jobs
or something.

Mm.

But you don't have no $5,000.

No, I don't have it right now,
but I will,

with your help.

Oh, what do I have to do?

Well, tomorrow,
I'm gonna close up the bar.

I'm gonna take the General
over to Freeport.

Oh, on the bus.

On the bus, yeah.

So you want me to take care
of the bar?

No, listen, no.

I want you to come in here
about noon, something like that.

I'm gonna leave
the back door open.

-Door open...
-Under the dresser

I'm gonna put a rag,

-A rag?
-A rag.

Okay.

I want you to take that rag
and squirt it down real good

with some lighter fluid.

Lighter fluid?

I'll leave it out.

And in the top dresser drawer,
I'm gonna leave a candle.

I want you to take the rag

and wrap it around the bottom
of the candle, understand that?

And put it over there
by those boxes.

Yeah.

And then light the candle.

You want me to light
the candle?

Then get out of here.

It'll take about an hour
for that candle to burn down.

And by that time,
you'll be home with your folks.

[Jimmy sighs]

You want me to burn
the place up.

No. Just light the candle, no.

They'll blame it
on the faulty wiring.

Why would you want to then?

Cause of the...
The insurance, you know.

Seventy five thousand dollars.

[Jimmy groans]

Then you light the candle.

Oh, no.
I can't light the candle.

I'll be the first one
they suspect.

No, I gotta be
so far out of town,

they never even consider
the possibility.

Well, suppose they suspect me!

-No, they won't.
-How do you know that?

Cause nobody'd give you credit
for being that bright.

Oh!

I can't do that, Floyd.

I'll give you the $5,000
as soon as I collect.

-I can't do it.
-Well, sure you can.

This is my job here, Floyd.

I mean, cleaning up,
taking care of the General,

watching over things,
that's my job.

I mean, burn it up...

Then what am I supposed
to do, huh?

You tell me that.

Well, I don't know.
You do anything you want to do.

[screaming] This,
I want this, Floyd.

You'll get another job,
I mean...

-Where, where?
-Well, I don't know where.

Down at Junction Texaco
or something. Anywhere.

They want mechanics there,
Floyd.

They want mechanics,
I'm not one.

I don't want any part of this.

-It's sick, you're sick.
-Jimmy.

-No.
-Listen.

People will see me
walking around without a job.

They'll put me back in the hill!

-You don't care.
-Listen to me, will you?

No, I'd rather be dying
in the street

bleeding to death,
than go back there.

-Will you listen?
-No, you listen to me, Floyd.

You listen to me now.

I want my $200
and I want it today

and I'm gonna be back for it.
I'm serious.

You're sick.

You're the one who should be
up in that house, not me.

Everyone else is fucking sick.

God damn it!

Where are you going?

I'm kidnapping him, okay?

Holding him for ransom.

$200 or you'll never
see him again.

Aha, kidnapping you can do,
but a favor for me, forget it.

Take it easy pee-wee!

Just have the man home
for dinner, will ya?

[General grunts]

And I'll tell you
something else, Floyd.

Anything happens
to this place...

Guess who's not gonna keep quiet
about it.

[Jimmy] I'm serious, Floyd.

[General]
God damn, you're going crazy!

Help, help!

[Jimmy] You shut up!

[rattling]

[sad music]

[cracking sound]

[whistling]

[phone rings]

O'Donnell Realty
by land or by sea,

can I help you?

Yes, just a minute,
please, Floyd.

Hello!

Charlie, it's Floyd.

Yeah, Floyd,
what can I do for you?

Would you have time
to come over?

Pretty busy.

I was thinking
about may be selling.

Well, I might be able to make it
a little later in the day.

Yeah, I'll be here.

[Charlie] Al right.

[laughs]

[Willie Nelson's
"Don't get around much anymore"]

[projector whirring]

Hey, Floyd.

Hey!

[Baytch] Look at her.

I remember who took this.

[Floyd] Well, it couldn't
have been me. I'm in it.

Must have been Louise.

So, how's they hanging?

Baytch! Oh.

[laughs]

I know why you're here.

-You do?
-Yeah.

Eviction, right?

No, no.

Floyd, I...

I think we found
you're wife's remains.

[projector whirring]

[zipper]

[hard metal clank]

That's not her.

Right, don't look like her.

How am I supposed
to identify her

if it don't look like her?

Wouldn't look like you neither

if you've been fish food
for near a year.

Sorry.

That's somebody else,
that's not her.

Come on, Floyd.

You dragged an entire lake,
how could that be her?

Lots of ways.

I know my wife.

Big lake,
could've missed a spot.

Alright, Baytch, alright.

Could've gotten tangled in some
undergrowth the whole time.

Oh, just forget it, Baytch.

On Tuesday she could've drifted
to where we dragged on Monday.

That's her.

[sad music]

That's her alright.

[Baytch] Are you sure?

[inhales deeply and exhales]

Yeah.

The wedding ring.

That's Dorothy.

[music intensifies]

[loud scream]

[announcer] Chainsaw
and Spike in there

against those cute
southern belles.

Look at her,

Scarlet not even knowing
what's attacking her.

And just dropped
right to the mat.

Oh, my!

You think this stuff is fake?

[Louise] You ask me that all
the time. Of course it's fake.

And Spike...

[Lois]
They bleed sometimes, you know.

They bleed fake blood.

Chainsaw is very affected and
very smart, I might add.

Wouldn't hurt you
to have a little trust in things

from time to time.

[phone rings]

[typing]

Hello.

Oh, hi, Muriel.

It's Muriel.

Whoopie.

What?

You're pulling my leg.

Where?

They found Floyd's wife's body.

After all this time.

Well, I reckon that should put
the man's mind to rest finally.

Well, he needed something
to kick his tail into gear.

He sure not doing it now.

Sitting around that bar,
watching them home movies.

Still, the man always was
a bit off the beaten path,

if you ask me.

[Louise] I'm going out.

Louise!

[door slams]

[chuckles]

Amazing!

Damn!

[laughs]

Al right!

[Louise] Where's Floyd?

Not here.

Floyd!

[Digby] He's not here.

You payed for that beer?

[Digby] Put it in the book.

That's bullshit, Digby.

This book is bullshit!

-Hey!
-Now, how many'd you have?

Well, I don't know.

About two, I guess.

-Three bucks, let's go.
-Three bucks?

Don't make me grab you
by the ankles

and shake it out of you, Digby.
Now, give it.

I'd like to know
what happened to credit

in this damn country.

It got spent.

We might as well
go drink in Russia.

Go ahead.

[sports program
in the background]

Okay, Digby.

Beat it.

Hey, I ain't done yet.

Take it with you.
We're closed.

I'm gonna tell you
one damn thing:

you just blew the possibility
of a very generous tip.

You know that, Louise?

Get lost.

She's blowing it in there
for you, Floyd.

In more ways than one, eh, Dig?

You alright?

-You heard?
-Yes.

You know Blue Water, Floyd.

She probably heard
before you did.

Want a drink?

No.

Yeah, give me a drink.

I wouldn't say no
to a little pop myself.

[glass bottles clinking]

You'll get over it.

It just takes time.

You can't dwell on it.

That's all.

-By the way, how's Jimmy doing?
-Fine.

Boy, that guy cracks me up.

[Baytch laughs]

All the time I've known him,
he still cracks me up.

I used to pitch his books
out the school bus window.

When I was a senior,
he was a freshman,

-you remember that?
-Yeah.

Real funny stuff, Baytch.

Every day, up goes the window,
out goes the books.

[exhaling] Well...

let me move on.

Bye.

[Baytch]
Full moon again tonight.

Ninety nine percent
of my problems.

Last night, perfect example.

Two guys going to Stereo Lounge
on motorcycles.

They have a couple of brews,

before you know, there's popcorn
all over the place.

One of them
stole the toilet paper

out of the men's room.

Senseless.

Lucky they pulled out there
before I got the call.

I'd have had them
on their hands and knees

picking that stuff up.

[Louise sighs]

[grunts]

Well, let me ride.

[Louise] We'll see you.

Moron.

Come on, Floyd.

Shouldn't be any big shock,

that poor woman
being dead, you know?

We all sort of knew it now,
didn't we?

Hey, I'll tell you what,

why don't we just close up
the place

and I'll fix us some nice lunch

and we'll go out and
have us a picnic, huh?

A picnic?

No law against that.

That's a good idea, Louise.

We can have a picnic
over by the lake.

Well, there's other places
we could go, Floyd.

[Floyd scoffs]

We can sit on a blanket,
holding hands,

gaze out and picture
the only woman I've ever loved

going down for the third time.

Could we may be
just change the subject?

Just like that, eh?

Yeah, just like that.

Must be a real happy day
for you, Louise.

What's that supposed to mean?

I just imagine

this is a real happy
day for you.

Huh?

Look, forget it.

Let's just do something.

Why don't you call it.
We'll do whatever you want.

Did something real nice
last night, didn't we?

While the body of my poor
Dorothy washed up there,

we did something
real nice in there.

Knock it off, Floyd.

Here's to us.

[Louise laughs]

[exhales sharply]

Why don't we just get out
of here alright?

I can't.

Why not?

I got Charlie O'Donnell coming.

Charlie O'Donnell?

Yes. I've got
the necessary paperwork.

Damn it, Floyd.

So why don't you just go out
and do something?

Okay.

I come over here
and try to cheer you up

and I can see
that that's impossible

so I'll just let you be then.

Mind if I use your phone?

Public property, isn't it?

Yes, it is.

I guess since I have
nothing to do all day

I'll call Virgil Stimms
and see what he's got going on.

Why don't you do that.

He's been asking me out
a lot lately

and I don't want to come off
all snooty.

-Call him, then.
-I am.

If you don't mind being
seen with the biggest idiot

in the entire state.

Quiet.

A man that has one eyebrow

running the entire length
of his forehead.

[Floyd laughs]

Hello, Virgil?

-[Floyd]Who am I to stop you?
-It's me Louise.

Yeah, how are you doing?

All fine.

Listen, Virgil, I was wondering
what you had going for today.

Oh, yeah?

How about if I drive over there

and you and I
just do nothing together then?

Alright, well,
about a half an hour?

What?

[giggles]

You nut!

You dirty guy.

Well...

All set.

Good.

May I use
your bathroom, please?

-What for?
-Well I...

[Louise chuckles]

I'm not gonna mess it up.

Well, just don't take
forever either.

Oh, why don't I just skip it.

-What are you doing,
-I've got some kind of tag

that's driving me crazy here.

-Louise!
-Well, there's nobody here.

Besides, you don't want me
to mess up your bathroom.

There!

Didn't mess up a thing, did I?

Get your clothes on!

I'm not kidding.

Get them on!

You know, I don't
have to do a damn thing

you tell me to do
unless I want it, understand?

You got anything here
besides Juicy Fruit?

Whatever is there.

How about some Cloret's?
You got any back there?

You don't need a Clorets,
Louise.

Virgil's not interested
in your breath.

Virgil is interested in getting
his hands down your panties.

That's all Virgil
is interested in.

You want me
to call him back then?

No, don't call him back
on my account.

You wanna date a prevert?
Date a prevert.

[Louise] Ha!

The word is "pervert"
and he's not one.

He goes into Clute City
and buys all those magazines

with little naked children
in them.

Oh, he does not.

People have seen him
get off the bus!

That's not true.

I just don't like
the idea of a woman

being yanked on all evening.

Look, I'm not gonna be yanked on
unless I wanna be yanked on.

I'm probably just gonna go over
there and get some chicken.

[Floyd] Well...

I hope you have
a real good time.

I really do and I...

I hope you drive carefully

and...

In case I don't see you again,

I hope you take real good care
of yourself.

What the hell
is that supposed to mean?

"In case I don't see you again,"
What the hell is that?

Well, things happen.

What things?

Don't be pulling
this crap on me,

I don't like it, alright?

I just want you
to promise me one thing.

If it does happen,

that you take care
of the General.

Ha!

Not promising that.

Oh, fine.

Look, Floyd,
nothing's gonna happen to you.

Besides, even if it did,

I wouldn't take care
of that old bastard.

I'm glad to finally see
your true colors, Louise.

[Floyd laughs]

This is stupid.

[Floyd] Where are you going?

I'm gonna get a quarter.
I'm gonna call Virgil

and cancel
the whole dam thing, alright?

You're worse than an old woman.

-What?
-Worse than a damn old woman.

Alright, go, go.

Have yourself a wonderful time.
Stay out all night.

-Do your thing?
-Do my thing?

Yeah, find yourself a real man.
Do your "thing".

Will you quit saying that?

If you can't find a man,
find yourself a boy.

Excuse me?

If you can't,
find yourself a dog,

Hey, fuck you!

"Fuck you", really?

Yeah, that's real lady like,
Louise, real lady like.

Why don't you take
your problems,

your heartaches
and all your whole goddamn place

and shove 'em.

-Get off my property.
-I am, damn it.

Fuck you!

I don't need a fucking whore.

Fuck yourself!

I don't need the company
of a foul-mouthed whoor!

By the way, it's not "whoor"
it's "whore".

What are you, uneducated?
God!

Whoor! That's the truth.

-Fuck you!
-It's whoor.

Whoor!

Whoor!

Take a good look, fatso.

Cause it's the last
time your gonna see me.

A man has to do
what a man has to do.

Eat this.

What the hell is this.

Looks like a lizard sandwich.

It's been dead a long time.

Alright.

Where did you find that,
for Christ sake?

[soft guitar music]

[General laughs]

Alright.

[grunting]

What the hell are you doing?

What are you doing?

Don't you want to play chess?

You are forgetting the routine!

The plank, you fumble dick!

Aren't we going
to walk the plank?

-I don't feel like it.
-What?

-Gets my blood going.
-I don't want to!

-Do it!
-I don't care, I don't want to.

Come on, will ya.

-Come on, do it.
-No!

-Please?
-Alright.

Alright. Good thing
that I love you.

Alright, here we go.

You should put some sperm on it.

Gents, start your engines.

[Jimmy makes engine sounds]

There's the green light.

Bombs away!

[both screaming]

That a boy!

Let's go! Let's go!

[General screams]

Oh, no!

Oh, no!

[grunting]

[suspenseful music]

[Jimmy whines]

[grunts]

Don't kid around with me.

I'm not in the mood for this.

[Jimmy] No.

God, no.

[projector whirring]

[flapping]

Oh!

[rattling]

[indistinct chatter]

Louise?

Johnny Gorman.

How you been keeping?

Not too bad.

I didn't know old Floyd
was a bowler.

I'm not here with Floyd.

I'm here with Virgil

Oh!

He's over there putting on
his shoes.

Lucky Virgil.

I wouldn't mind
seeing you again.

[Virgil] Let's go, Louise.

Coming!

[Johnny] Wouldn't be
like before. Believe me.

I wouldn't be borrowing money
from you, like I used to.

Don't tell me you're working.

Will be.

As soon as they start the
bridge, I'll be working full.

What bridge?

It's kind of on the Q.T.
right now,

but the county finally approved
a four lane suspension job

that's gonna connect Blue Water
with the rest of civilization.

Hell, they've been talking
about that bridge for years.

It's more than just talk
this time.

My old lady is a receptionist
over at city hall.

Horse's mouth on this one.

Excuse me.

Point is, it wouldn't be
like it was.

Man, I got than man a two
dollar deposit on the shoes.

Just be quiet, Virgil.

Why are we driving so fast?

-Would you shut up?
-Alright.

[Virgil] Would you please think
about driving defensively?

Virgil, you got a knife?

Uh, a pocket knife.

Let have that.

-That's what you call a knife?
-Yeah.

Hand me that Black and Decker,
it's under the seat.

[Louise] Mhm.

[drill buzzes]

[birds chirping]

[drill buzzing]

[hissing]

We're talking bag it
and take it home.

Yeah, just give him some time to
stew in his own juice a while.

I tell you, Jack,
the fish is on the line.

I'm just reeling him in.

Alright!

Dear, Louise,

you can sell the bar.

I hereby leave it to you.

Uh...

But you gotta promise me

that you will take care
'of the General.

You gotta promise me that.

Love, Floyd.

[rewinding]

Best regards, Floyd.

[sad guitar music]

[somber music]

[huffs]

[knocking on door]

Charlie?

[Jimmy] It's me Floyd, open up.

[Floyd] Leave him there,
I'll get him in later.

[Jimmy] No, no, it's important!
Open up!

[loud knocking]

Alright!

-[Jimmy screams] Open up!
-I'm coming.

[sobbing] Floyd!

There has been an accident.

-Yeah?
-An accident.

-Louise?
-No, the General.

-The General?
-Yes.

Yes, it wasn't my fault.
It wasn't my fault.

Al right.

We were playing on the dock

and he went flying
out of my hands.

What?

I pulled him into the shore,

he wasn't moving, Floyd.

-He wasn't moving.
-Alright, get out of the way.

No, no, no, Floyd, no.

-Get the hell out of my way.
-No, no, no, Floyd.

What the hell are you doing?

[glass breaking]

Let's lock all these here.

All I want, Floyd,
from you, is an hour.

Just enough time
to get out of here.

You're getting yourself
in real big trouble, Mister.

Floyd, I'm sorry alright,

just get me out of here, please.

Get me a cab.

-A what?
-A cab.

-A cab?
-Yeah.

-From where?
-Just get me a cab to Beaumont.

My brother Ed, he'll know
what to do.

[laughing] Ed?

Just get me a cab.

Get your own cab,
you know where the phone is.

No, I can't

because they're probably
looking for me already, Floyd.

Well, calm down, will you?

I just want a cab.

Okay!

Give me a quarter.

[Louise] Floyd!

Oh, shit.

Floyd!

Floyd?

[knocking] Come on, Floyd,
it's me, Louise.

It's Louise.

Tell her to go away.

Floyd!

Go away!

[knocking]

Floyd, open the door.

You know Louise,

woman don't take no
for an answer.

Floyd, open this door right now.

Okay.

You get her in
and you get her out, alright?

Otherwise I come in
like the 4th of July, Floyd.

Okay?

[loud knocking]

4th of July, I'm not kidding.

And you lock the door.

Floyd!

[loud knocking]

Coming!

Floyd, I gotta talk to you.

-Yeah. Right now?
-Yes, right now.

Excuse us.

[Louise] Oh, no!

Louise, there's nothing
you can say to me

you can't say
in front of your boyfriend.

Oh, he's not my boyfriend.

Listen, this is very important.

Come here,
I want to tell you something.

[seagulls squealing]

[turns engine off]

[slams car door]

I've seen city dumps
that look better than this.

[Louise laughs]

Don't even think
about selling this place.

Whatever you say, Louise.

It's gonna be worth a fortune.

[Virgil] I'd say somebody
tied one on.

Come here.

They're building a bridge,
Floyd. Across to the main land.

Place gonna be worth
it's weight in gold

-and then some.
-What are you talking about?

Oh, God!

-Let's go, Louise.
-What?

Gonna make a top notch bowler
out of her.

Check her out.

The form, the back swing...

All she needs
is practice, practice, practice.

-Virgil.
-That's all she needs!

I heard, I heard.

[whispering] You have to go.
Jimmy's there.

-Are you drunk?
-Come on, Louise.

Time to get
the old balls flying.

[inaudible]

Oh, forget it.

You.. God!

[Jimmy] Hold on!

[exhales]

[General mumbling]

What the hell country
are you from?

Just relax, Popeye.

I need to use your truck.

For what?

-I need to go to Beaumont.
-For what?

Cause I need to, alright?

Give me your keys.

Floyd!

I'm not kidding,
give me your keys!

[Louise screams frightened]

[sniffs]

Where are the keys?

I don't know about anybody else,
but myself, I've seen enough.

Virgil, he's got a gun.

Give me the gun.

-[Jimmy] Floyd.
-[Virgil] Come on, boy.

Just hand me the gun
and then you and me...

We'll take a nice little ride.

Get away from me, Virgil.
I'm serious.

I'd do what he says.

Couple of shakes,
I'll have you back

swapping stories
with your old buddies.

Snug as a bug.

No.

Everybody better start
listening to me.

We are listening.

You talk, we listen.

[Charlie laughs]

What the hell is going on?

You gotta be shitting me.

I want the keys.

They're in the truck

Okay, let's go.

Now, what are you doing?

Keys better be
in the truck, Louise

-or you're dead.
-Dead?

[police siren wailing]

It's Baytch.

Baytch? Shit, shit!

No, no!

Okay, Floyd, you cover for me.

Well, get in the back room.

I got enough ammo in this thing
to kill us all.

Oh, shut up and get
in the back room.

[Louise] Thanks! Ah!

[Louise screams]

You were
a regular John Wayne, Virg.

At least I took a shot.

[loud knocking]

Baytch!

[Baytch] What's with
the door locked?

Well... We was doing
some...

Renovations.

[Baytch] Can I...

Oh, yeah.

[Virgil] Hey, Baytch!

Where's Louise?

-Home.
-She's home?

Yeah, home.

She's home.

Louise's truck...

-Well, Floyd.
-Well, Virgil.

I'm driving it.

You're going to drink
and drive that truck?

No, no.

A little rough house?

-[Floyd] Yeah.
-[Virgil] No.

[laughing] Yeah, a little bit.

Don't tell me you two boys
were fighting over that hog?

-Hog?
-Shhh.

[laughing]

Yeah, I'll tell you,
it's under control, though.

[Baytch] Better be.

[both laugh]

Guess who I got out in the car?

Your father in law,
what's-his-name.

-The General?
-Yeah.

Laying out by the dock

like one of them
dead Flying Walendas.

-He's okay?
-Yeah.

The General is okay.

Yeah, he's fine.

Wheelchair is in the trunk.

You're gonna bring him in?

You be right back, of course.

[laughing]

Jimmy leave him out there?

[Floyd laughs]

I guess.

Leaving the scene.
He'll answer to me for that.

[whining]

Shh.

You mind?

No, go ahead.

You know how to work this thing?

[General coughs]

Press the button, you fog head.

[exhales]

I never approach the scene
of an accident too carelessly.

Two years ago,
a man older than General here

held 21 people hostage

in a frozen custard joint
in San Antonio.

Double barrel shotgun.

Made the people strip.

Handled some of the women's
underthings.

Seven hours he's yelling
something about Social Security.

[Baytch cackles]

That's really interesting,
Baytch.

Seven hours!

Finally, he raises
that old double-barrel,

cocks her back
and lets her fly.

What are you doing?

[Baytch] Thank God,
nobody in the line of fire.

But,
substantial property damage.

I'm talking frozen custard
everywhere.

[Baytch cackles]

[Virgil over the radio]
Mayday, do you copy?

This is Virgil.

We got Mayday,
do you copy?

This is Virgil.

[Baytch] Virgil,
just get the man in here

and quit playing
grab-ass.

Anyways...

The old man finally realizes
what he's done.

It's too much for him,

he has a heart seizure
right then.

Right on the spot.

San Antonio police
finally roll him out,

he's dead,

covered with frozen custard

It's not pleasant,

but its life.

Well, thanks a lot Baytch
for...

sharing that with me.

Don't mention it.

[exhaling] Well, let me ride.

[grunts]

[General] Who locked the door,
who locked the door?

Louise's glasses?

[General] Open the door,
open the door, damn it!

Open the door!

[General mumbles]

Oh, watch it!

[General coughs]

Put him in the back,
let him rest up.

You idiots.

[Louise moans]

Who the hell are you?

Yeah...

Another full moon tonight.

That means there's walking
time bombs out there

waiting to go off.

It's my job to make sure
they don't.

Stop it.

[Jimmy grunts]

[General groans]

[Jimmy sobs]

[General scoffs]

-[Louise] No!
-[Jimmy] Come on.

[car engine turns on]

[General keeps groaning]

[car drives away]

-He's gone?
-Yeah.

[Jimmy] Let's go.

What are you doing?

The General, he's alright.
He's fine.

No, no, Floyd.
You heard what they said.

-Leaving the scene?
-Oh, big deal?

Open the door,
I'm taking Louise with me.

You what?

I'm taking her hostage,
so you...

So you won't try anything funny
when I leave.

Well, take Virgil hostage.

Sure, nobody asks me shit.

Just one more thing, okay?

[Louise] Oh!

[screaming] Get your damn feet
off the furniture!

[Jimmy breaths heavily]

I always wanted to do that,
Floyd.

Put 'em back up.

Come on, put 'em back up.

I want you to put
your feet on the floor

or I'm gonna kill you.

-[Jimmy] Boom!
-[Louise screams]

[blows]

And he kills him anyway.

Remember Gregory Peck?

I always wanted to do that.

Anyway...

Come on.

[stammering] Open the door.

[Louise screams]

You look very nice today.

-I do?
-Yeah.

[Floyd and Louise laugh]

New shoes, eh?

These old things?

You've seen this things
a million times.

No.. I... Really?

Just open the door.

[Louise] Oh!

-Here's your...
-Thanks, Floyd.

See ya.

You know, who knows, Floyd,

may be on the ride
she get to like me

better than she likes you.

[Jimmy laughs]

[Jimmy screams loudly]

[Jimmy] No, no!

Give me the gun,
give me the gun!

Gun, gun, get the gun!

[shooting sound]

[Virgil laughs maliciously]

Alright, pal, up we go!

The party is over, man.
In the car.

Oh, just let him go.

What?

Let him go!

Attempted auto theft here.

[Floyd]
Give me the gun.

-Attempted kidnapping.
-Give me the gun, will you?

[exhales]

We'll see you, Virg.

[Virgil] What?

Just go.

-Go?
-Go, go, go.

Oh...

I got a date here.

It's over, Virg.

It's over?

Well...

I got no ride.

Walk it.

I got my bowling shoes on.

I'd appreciate it
if you wouldn't tell anybody

-about this.
-Yeah. No problem, Virgil.

Maybe I should get going too.

You stay right here.

What did I tell you
about bringing a gun in here?

What did I tell you?

If should send you
back up on that hill.

Now, get outside, get a broom
and clean this mess. Go on.

-Floyd?
-What?

I guess is not a good time
to talk about my $200.

[screaming] No, get out of here!

[slams door]

Get the broom.

[huffs]

-Floyd?
-What?

Don't you think we oughta
call Baytch or something?

No, I don't.

Why not?

Because, like Virgil says,
there's certain things

best left private.

You out on the prowl again.

I'd like to keep that private.

On the prowl again?

Hey, hey, hey!

Hey!

Hey!

Hey! What are you... Oh!

[slams door]

That little sick Jimmy
just took my truck.

Louise, will you keep it down?

The man's had a tough one.

Yeah, well, so have I.

I'm still making the payments
on that truck.

That's alright, we'll go
to Beaumont tomorrow.

He's taking the car
over to his brother Ed's.

We'll take the bus
and we'll bring it back.

Yeah, somebody mind telling me

how I'm supposed
to get home then?

I don't want you to go home.

[soft romantic music]

You don't?

Hey...

you're pretty bad yourself,
aren't you Floyd?

Overpowering a gunman like that?

I mean, you're mad-ass guy.

I had this picture.

Picture?

Yeah, you and Jimmy in the car,

your hands occupied driving.

He's free to explore.

So you went into action
due to a picture, ha?

I'd guess it'd be fair
to that, yeah.

You don't care
if I get killed or something.

You just didn't want to see
me get felt up, is that it?

Louise, will you just watch it?

Well, I know you have this
high regard for me don't you?

What did you expect?

You come in with Virgil,

with your breast
flouncing around

and talking about getting
"the old balls flying"...

Bowling, Floyd!

[General grunts]

Everybody...

Everybody okay?

You alright?

Mhm.

You okay?

Where the fuck am I?

[honking]

You know,
I talk about Dorothy a lot.

Dorothy this and Dorothy that.

But the truth be known,
Dorothy wasn't perfect,

I didn't realize that
until she was gone.

I know.

Sometimes I think that...

She just took off
and deserted me,

You know, just...

left for the great beyond.

She didn't have much option,
did she?

Being dead and all.

She got you there.

[mumbles]

You know, I couldn't have
anybody do that to me again.

You know, leaving me like that.

[Floyd breaths deeply]

Uh...

Anyway, ah...

[Floyd laughs nervously]

If you want to hang around here

and help me run this
place, that's fine.

I just...

I don't want you running out
on me, though.

We partners?

Well...

Sort of, yeah.

Alright.

Partners!

Well, I'll be damned.

[Louise] Okay.

Well, there's a couple things
you have to understand, Floyd.

I just come and go as I please,
you know.

I'm not a "today woman".

You'd have
to understand that, Floyd.

And you have to stop acting
the way you do sometimes.

[Floyd] Oh, well...

How's that?

You know, the way you act.

Got to stop that.

Oh...

[laughing] Okay.

May be you should stop talking
about Dorothy so much.

And you should tell me
that you love me sometimes,

since you do.

[Charlie]Floyd, Floyd.
Floyd!

-Who the hell is that?
-Charlie O'Donnell.

-Oh!
-Let him in.

Floyd?

[knocks repeatedly]

-Hey, Louise.
-Hey.

I just walked all the way
over here.

You can walk all the way back.
[grunts]

Floyd?

-[Floyd] Let him in.
-Do what?

You heard the man.

Excuse me, Louise.

[Louise slams the door]

Howdy, grand dad.

Don't you grand-daddy me,
you creepy little tit merchant.

Living proof.

The good die young.

[Charlie laughs]

Let me out of here
before I insult the man.

Well, I heard you mention
something about selling.

Yes, I did.

Which is the damndest
coincidence Floyd,

because I not one half hour ago

spoke to the fellow
I told you about.

-The auto parts man?
-That's the one.

Did a little haggling,
got him up to fifty two nine.

Ran over here without
giving him a chance

to come to his senses.

How about that?

So what would you say
to a little 12 year old scotch?

I'd say it's been a long time.

-Louise?
-No, thank you.

[blows]

I've been saving this
for an occasion.

Well, it ain't all the time
a man gets a call

from the county commissioner and

manages to save
his hide the next day.

You heard about that.

Yeah, I might heard something.
You know how the tongues wag.

Yeah.

You know, Charlie,

a man can be taken in
in a number of ways.

What he sees,

what he doesn't see,

what he forces himself to see.

Then the time comes

when you just got
to rub your eyes

and stare at what's
right in front of you.

Amen, brother.

Amen.

[Charlie screams loudly]

Floyd, what the hell
is wrong with you, man?

[Louise laughs]

You won't get away
with this, Floyd.

Striking me
in my face like that.

We're talking some serious
repercussions, my friend!

Charlie, do me a favor,

Send old Jack Hill around.

I'd love to give him
a repeat performance.

Ta-da!

[soft guitar music]

[nostalgic orchestral music]

[metallic rattle]

[seagulls squealing]

I'm not counting on
any bridge, you know.

So we do the best we can.

Beats sitting around.

[door opening]

-Hello?
-Hey.

Hey!

-Louise.
-Yeah.

Give the General a beer,
will you?

[Louise] Okay.

What can I do for you guys?

Oh, a couple Lone Stars.

Two Lone Stars.

Sorry about the inconvenience,
but...

We are in the process
of a grand re-opening.

Give it up, friend.

What?

You heard the man.

Floyd?

Huh?

What happened to those two guys?

Let me guess,

last minute, they decided
they just wanted directions.

Money.

Money?

We've been hit.

Hit?

We was robbed. They took
everything from the register.

Over twelve dollars.

Well...

I'll better get Baytch.

[Louise sighs]

[Louise's shoes
stomping on the floor]

Hello, this is Louise,

would you give me Baytch?
It's an emergency.

Louise Taylor, who's this?

It's a blessing in disguise.

[Louise] Would you look
for him, please?

Nothing like an armed robbery

to bring out
the paying customers.

They got cleaning man
answering the phone over there.

Makes a man feel
downright festive.

Yes, sir.

[door creaks]

Hey. Baytch. It's Louise
over at the Blue Water Grill.

Would you hold on a second?

[violin playing]

Floyd?

Floyd!

[violin music]

Hey, Baytch, forget it.
It's nothing that won't keep.

I'm sorry to trouble you.

Alright, bye.

[General sighs]

Thank you.

[violin keeps playing]

[car approaches]

[car door opens and closes]

Shh.

[emotive string music]

[country music]
