[man over TV] Palmer, Alaska
has luxury homes

- with million-dollar views.
- [man chuckling]

[man over TV] Cole and Amanda
have saved up

and are ready to spend
the big bucks.

This log house has surprises
around every turn.

[Cole] Now, that's nice.

- Wow!
- [Kyle] I've always suspected

that I didn't want
the desirable things

in life as much as I should.

Women, cars, houses,
movies, bands.

These things were how
people chiseled out

a tidy philosophy of life.

- [Cole] This can't be for real.
- [Amanda] It's really serene.

[Kyle] I never needed
a philosophy of life.

[Cole] And one more thing.
This is awesome.

[Kyle] It's only people
who wanted things,

felt guilty about getting
things and frustrated

about not getting things
that needed a philosophy.

[Amanda] It might be my favorite
part of the house.

[man over TV] The garage
of Cole's dreams,

a party shower and a sunroom.
What will it all cost?

[Kyle] I was just as pleased
to get drunk

or drink a bunch
and not get drunk.

[Cole] The main thing
is the grass for me.

- There's just so much of it.
- [Amanda] Yeah.

- [knocking on door]
- [Kyle] Hmm?

[lock clicking]

- [Kyle grunting]
- [man groaning]

Give me your weapon.

I don't got one.
[groans]

Someone that fights like you
should have a weapon.

Trespassin' is a lot different
than armed robbery, smart guy.

[Kyle] Mm-hmm.

- You talk too much.
- [man mumbling]

[knocking on door]

[Colin] Kyle, you here?
It's Colin.

Tell me you still got it, man.

Yes!

Ooh!
That's what I'm talking about.

Hey,
that's what I'm talking about.

[exhales] You may wanna
step out for a while.

Why's that?

Well, there's a gentleman
may stop by.

If so, I got to shoot him.

Colin, you one crazy
son of a bitch.

[chuckles]

[TV audience cheering]

I got a guy in my closet.

I don't know if it's the same
one you're thinking of.

- Curly headed?
- Yeah, that's the one.

And he's alive?

So far.

Pack your shit.

- Did I just get promoted?
- [Colin] Yep.

You goin' to Arkansas.

[Kyle] I'm a drug dealer.

I'm near the bottom rung
of an outfit run

by a man named Frog.

A man I've never met before.

To be honest,
I'm not sure he even exists.

What a lot of people don't know

about organized crime
in the south

is that it's not
that organized.

The term Dixie Mafia has
always been too generous,

implied too grand a scale.

There's a handful
of big-time operators

that run everything regionally,
but...

it's nothing like the Italians
or the Mexicans, no families.

Just a loose affiliation
of deadbeats and scumbags.

No code of honor.

No philosophy of life.

It's mostly boring
solitary work,

but that suits me just fine.

Relying on other people
is the fastest way

to end up dead in
this business.

- You Kyle?
- [Kyle] You Swin?

Welcome aboard. I'll be
your co-pilot this evening.

Colin didn't mention I'd be
captaining a highway barge.

Yeah, well,
you're moving wholesale now,

the big leagues.

[Kyle] What's with the cones?

I thought the randomness
of it might throw off a cop.

Well, I guess that's smart.

[Swin] I'm somethin'
of a criminal mastermind.

Oh, you're one of those
witty people?

I've been called worse.

You kinda remind me
of a game show host.

You know what, Kyle?

It strikes me that if you wanna
be the strong silent type,

you really gotta keep yourself

from commenting
on every little thing.

It won't be right away,

but at some point soon
I'm gonna knock you on your ass.

[Swin chuckles]

I suggest you keep
the bullshit to a minimum.

Look at you.

No, you act tough now,
but we'll be friends.

Everybody who meets me
wants to be my friend.

Yeah, I find that hard
to believe.

I mean, what's not to like?

What kinda name is Swin anyway?

Your mother's. Get in.

If we go 83 the rest of the way
we won't be late.

Getting pulled over with drugs
makes you really late.

There I go learnin' again.

You don't get this
smart on accident.

That's nice to see.

[scoffs]

- You're sad.
- No.

It's just most women
don't breastfeed anymore,

which is a shame, you know?

'Cause breastfed babies
get fewer syndromes.

I was a formula baby.

Your big ass I'm guessin' had
a mouthful of the real deal.

- No idea.
- [Swin] Oh, I bet ya did.

Bet you had a titty
in your mouth from day one.

Let's call your mother and ask.

She's dead.

I wouldn't care
if all my sisters died.

- You're fuckin' stupid.
- [laughs]

- [tarp rustling]
- Ah, shit.

God damn it.

Really? Duct tape, MacGyver?

You see any rope in there?

I'm improvising 'cause your
damn cover job was so shoddy.

- [Swin] Shit.
- [Kyle] Fuck.

Uh, let me do the talkin'.

Hey now. I'm Mike,
how's your day going?

Uh, first aid kit's
in the console.

Pat Bright, Park Ranger.
You boys heading far?

Corpus Christie.

[Pat] I noticed
your rig needs some help.

[Swin laughing] Well, not sure
I agree with that 100 percent,

but I guess everything
gives out in time, doesn't it?

If you're patient.

You gotta get more rope,
go corner to corner.

Yeah, I know it.

Uh, we were just in a rush
this morning.

Still are.

What's the haul?

Faucets.

Yep, some, uh,
computer tycoon, you know?

Used to be oil,
now it's computers.

There are no faucets in Corpus?

[chuckles]
That's what I said,

but he said he's gotta have that
adobe-marble core.

[Pat] Mm-hmm, well let me take
a look how you got this stacked.

I'm a safety expert
in this state.

I appreciate...
I appreciate it, sir,

but the thing is,
we really gotta haul ass.

- We're already pretty far.
- Hey, enough questions.

Fuck.

What's the cones for?

You boys are carrying
a load of faucets,

stuffed with bags
of powder and plug.

You left from Little Rock
and you got

a map of each state
in your glove box.

I'm with Frog.
I've been ordered to intervene.

So, you boys not gonna have
a lot of choice

about your immediate futures.

You gonna work under me
at the state park.

Frog's got a whole new loop
of clients

and I'm running those deals,

so try not to look like deer
in the headlights.

Try to look angry or bored
or something.

- So you know Frog, personally?
- I've known Frogman for years.

Ever since a truck of his
got lost in my park.

You boys gonna ride with me.

What about the flatbed?

[Pat] Uh, Colin here
will take it the rest away.

[Colin chuckles]

What's up, Kyle?

I don't think
you gonna need that.

I about blew you away.

- You trying to convince someone?
- No.

No, I hate guns.

They say it ain't smart
to fuck around

with someone you don't know.

Your name is Kyle Ribb.

You never killed a man
and your name is Swin Horn.

You never killed a man.

You're dependable.

You're a project.

[car door closes]

[Pat] So, here's how this
is all gonna shake out.

You two boys get to live in
trailers on the park grounds.

Don't worry,
I'm not playing favorites.

They're identical.

You'll have nine to five covers
as park peons.

Maintainin' the grounds,
directin' lost SUVs.

You are here,
you're gonna make a right

and a left all the way
to the end.

[Pat] Your cover names are
Robert Suarez and Ed Mollar.

These are my rules.

I'm only gonna say 'em once,
so listen the fuck up.

I am the boss.

You may never refuse an order
and you may never quit.

If you decide to run off,

I will hunt you down
and I will kill you,

no matter how much
I've grown to like you.

Do not socialize
with the locals.

Do not bring girls around.

Do not draw attention
to yourself.

In time you two might take over
the operation,

cutting me in
for a humble percentage.

Why, just think. One day
this could all be yours.

[exhales]

- [Swin pants]
- [vacuum whirring]

[Swin] Where's the boss?

Vacuumin' his Corvette.

Goin' on two hours.
He's obsessed with it.

More of a German car guy myself.

You think there's any chance
Bright is Frog?

Zero.

It's fresh thinkin' though.

Where do you think Frog lives,
on a ranch somewhere?

I think that we will have
to work at this company

for a long time
before we ever found out

anything true about the Frogman.

I heard he has a pool
shaped like a lily pad.

Yep, there you go.

For a long time it's just
gonna be shit like that.

Inconsequential falsehoods.

[Pat] Sleep well? All nested in?

Would either of you boys
like to call me sir?

You can if you want.

I won't think it's corny.

We're gonna go traffic drugs
across state lines, sir!

[Swin] You see that?

Place like that's where
my sisters are gonna end up.

How many of those
you got anyway, like, ten?

They don't have
their real father.

Their stepdad is overly strict.

He ran me off, so I'm not
there to protect 'em.

Sounds like a stripper recipe
to me.

Yeah.

Well, you never can tell.

One of 'em's already
named Cinnamon.

[woman over PA] I need
a price check on register five.

Price check on register five.

[slurping]

Excuse me, ma'am?

Do you happen to know
where the radishes are?

I don't know,
with the vegetables.

- That's an educated guess.
- [chuckles]

New in town, name's Swin.

Oh, your name's
about as dumb as mine.

- Johnna.
- Pleasure.

Really no tellin' how long
I'll be in the area.

Yeah, I'm a freelance
government auditor.

Let's get this
courtship underway.

- I'm on shift tonight.
- What about tomorrow night?

- Church.
- I'm actually working...

Did you say church?

Yeah,
you should try it sometime.

I have. We all have.

Well, try again.
Maybe it'll stick.

[chuckles]

- Can I help you with something?
- What about Saturday?

This is creepy.

The radishes and then
the following me out to my car.

You're... You're just creepy.

- Do you like creepy?
- [sighs]

I'll tell you what.

You can't so much as kiss me
for five dates.

- And then what?
- Then you can.

[Kyle] What the fuck?
You can't date a local girl.

Bright told us to keep
a low profile.

It's no big deal.

I'm not teachin' her
our secret handshake.

- You tell Bright?
- No, and I apparently

shouldn't have told you.

Yeah, you might be right.

Evening, ma'am.

Oh, those are the pitiful-lest
things I've ever seen.

You carry that?

[Swin grunts]

- I got it.
- Are you sure?

[Swin] Yep.
[grunts]

[man] I'm barbecuing
some shrimp,

making dinner for breakfast.

- Y'all hungry?
- [Swin] No, thanks.

[man over radio] So far
it's been a very tight game.

A hundred.

Does it run?

Oh, no, you don't ride it.

- The thing's a curiosity.
- So it don't run?

So you turn a profit
just selling books and socks?

Oh, I don't have
to turn a profit.

- It's a great business model.
- [man] Mm-hmm.

Um, sir, this scooter
is a piece of America.

I don't see why
you wouldn't wanna buy it.

- Oh, I don't care about America.
- [Swin laughing]

I care about listening to

the St. Louis Cardinals
on the radio.

[man over radio]
Calvin is now one, one with...

There he goes. Where is he...

[man over radio]
Pitcher throws the fifth.

He's kind of a neat guy.

All he does is cook breakfast
and listen to the damn radio.

- That's all he does all day.
- What's wrong with that?

He's just mean.

He won't give you ten bucks
for a Rolex.

I wouldn't give you ten bucks
for this thing.

[thunder rumbling]

Well, this could go on
all night.

Flood the trails,
a real gully washer.

You boys better start out now
if you wanna get back home.

Otherwise you'll be
stuck with me all night.

[rain pattering]

- I'll wait it out.
- [Swin sighs]

Yeah, me too.

- [rain pattering]
- [thunder rumbling]

I'll fix it.

[remote clattering]

There, that's better.

Then as the English say, boys,

let us press on
through till the dawn.

Dawn?

You can hit the sack
if you like, Abigail.

You can sleep in my bed
if you want.

I just don't really drink.
I'm not trying to be a dick.

I have a feeling
that's your line.

My line is...

may you dream of offered tits.

I say that, ah, once in a while.

Splash, splash, down the hatch.

[Swin groans]

They say I have the feet
of Christ.

Gentlemen, I would now like

to say a few words
about boredom.

♪ Oh boredom
is a beautiful thing ♪

No, because a bored criminal
is a good criminal.

So if you boys ever
catch yourselves startin'

to complain about boredom,
just remember it's better

to have to look for something
to do

than have something
to do look for you.

- [Swin] Mm-hmm.
- [telephone ringing]

- [Pat] Hmm.
- [telephone ringing]

- [telephone beeps]
- Hello.

- [Her] The bake sale is a go.
- [Pat] Got it.

[telephone beeps]

That was our new orders.

- That was Frog?
- [Pat] That was Her.

She calls herself Her.

She is a black lady.

Lives on a houseboat
other side of the lake.

She always calls with orders.

Why does she call herself Her?

Well, this is pure conjecture,

but I imagine that if our
organization was infiltrated

or somebody wearing
a wire or tappin' phones,

what have you,
then all they'd hear

is Her this and Her that and...

Her?

Her could be any woman at all.

So we're gonna hand deliver
the drugs and receive cash.

- That's new.
- It means Frog trusts us.

- Yeah, like a promotion really.
- Where we going?

Castor, Louisiana.

Uh, here is good.

You see, in my country
it's rude not to...

study something you buy.

You like um, Sunny D?

Sure.

We buy bulk. We're sick of it.

- Who's we?
- My... My grandson.

Nick, bring, uh,
juice pouch this minute.

[man over TV speaking
foreign language]

[Old Greek sighs]

[Old Greek speaking
foreign language]

Hey, easy!

Oh, gosh how...
Look how rude, I... I...

I wave this thing.

Nick, show manners.

Friends.

And let them see you
or they get nervous.

They don't know
how weak you are. [chuckles]

Don't worry so much
about being rude.

Check the balls
and bring out the money.

His, um, poor father...

very strange egg
as you American's say.

As a child he paid another boy

to partake of the sex act
with a dog.

[man over TV speaking
foreign language]

A small dog.

Dogs actually enjoy sex
with humans, you know?

It'd be like you having sex
with a super-hot alien.

[Nick sighs]

Uh, what, uh, county
of Arkansas are you from?

- Huh?
- Tell him to bring in the money.

Very sorry, it's, uh,
a rude question.

Don't say the word rude again.

It's in my power
to pull this deal.

Nick! Bring the bag.

My plight is, um, horrible one.

I'm no longer noble.

Now I'm threatened by men
in my own home.

I had a life, now I have shit.

Hey, could be worse.

If you don't bring that bag
out here in a hurry

- it could be worse.
- Nick, come! Bring the bag!

We're good.

No hard feelings.

No feelings at all.

That short little piece of shit
in the glasses.

And you and him
worked something out.

No, they ain't know
nothing about this.

Don't bullshit me.

Swin could never face me

Mm, no, no, no, no.

No, no, no, no, no, no.
No, no, no. You're wrong.

- Where's the money?

can be disgusted?

[Johnna clears throat]

Do you wanna come inside?

Right now?

Tonight was our fifth date.

I know you got

Is that blood?

He followed us?

It's not as bad as it looks.
It's just a busy day.

I didn't wanna be rude,

so I brought
your grandson's gun back.

[Old Greek] Oh, my gosh.
Oh, my gosh.

- [gunshots]
- [Old Greek groans]

[gunshots]

[Kyle] I'll bury
the Greek kid somewhere else.

Distance ourselves from him
and the grandfather.

[Swin] Why don't we just
bury 'em both here?

[Kyle] We're not buryin'
Bright's killer in his park.

[Swin]
Why are we covering this up?

- We didn't kill 'em.
- [Kyle] It buys us some time.

You know six feet's
only a custom, right?

- Custom we're gonna follow.
- [crickets chirping]

I should've checked to see
if anybody was following us.

I know that and I... I accept
responsibility for that.

I already know
it was your fault.

- You don't have to tell me that.
- You don't have to be a dick.

I'm apologizing, okay?

- That's what people do.
- It's not what I do.

It's got nothin' to do
with payin' attention.

You should've felt
someone following you.

Yeah, so called gut feelings
come from your brain

and I was thinkin'
about somethin' else.

- I got distracted.
- Thinkin' about what?

I don't know now.
I think about shit all the time.

I spent years training
my brain to race.

I can't just fuckin' turn
it off like a switch.

That's why you're so good
at this shit.

Your brain's managing.

You!

You were thinkin' about
that fuckin' girl.

[train horn blaring]

Why didn't we run as soon
as we found him dead?

In whose car?

Bright's? With Frog's money?

Headed where?
Back to Athens and Vanderbilt?

I don't know,
we didn't even consider it.

I did.

You ever consider
that if we run off

it looks like we planned this?

It looks like we have a reason
to run.

Frog will hunt us down
and kill us if we run.

Running's a death sentence.

I'll try to get in touch
with Colin.

We better tell
the story ourselves

than have it tricklin' up
that chain of command.

Things trickle down, not up.

Sorry. I'm sorry.

It's not me, it's my brain.
My brain's a real asshole.

It'll work out.

We just gotta get ahold
of Colin.

That's how we stay alive.

Even so, don't you think
maybe it's time to get a gun?

Bringin' in guns doesn't settle
the situation down.

What if just you had one?
You trust yourself, right?

- The answer is no.
- Do you think it makes you

a fuckin' tough guy
to be unarmed?

Which one of us
recently shot someone?

Hmm?

If Frog wanted us to have guns
we'd have guns.

- [man whistling]

- [gun cocks]
- Get in.

Give me your gun.

Ain't got one.

Don't fuck with me.

Take it out slow,
put it on the floorboard.

[woman over radio]
A couple months ago.

I miss him so much.

[man over radio]
I'm sorry to hear that.

I am so sorry to hear that,
but you know what?

- [woman over radio] What?
- [man] Bright must need

the money back.
That shit you sold him was bunk.

[man 2]
How do I know he ain't lying?

[man] Probably is.
That's between the two of y'all.

[indistinct chatter on radio]

You want some?

I'm on a strict diet.
Hennessy and ass.

How'd you find me?

I followed you since you left
the shop, you dumb shit.

[woman over radio] JJ.

[man over radio] All right. JJ,
you heard that.

I'll give you 5,000
to let me go.

[man over radio] Want you back.
Come on, now.

- Get your mind right.
- [man] Shh.

[man screaming]

[tires screeching]

[grunting]

[man] I wasn't gonna kill you.
I'll let you go.

I swear, man.

Come on, man.

- [gun cocks]
- [man screams]

[gunshots]

[man] I gotta get
the fuck outta Memphis.

[man 2] I got a friend
in Pine Bluff named Almond.

What's his name?

[man] Almond, motherfucker.
Like the nut.

- All right.
- [man] I'll set you up.

Appreciate you.

[shop bell rings]

Hey.

What can I do for ya?

[man]
Well, I think the question is

what can I do for you?
My name's Frog.

I got a friend from Memphis
who said you are, uh,

looking for new employees.

- Did he, now?
- [Frog] Mm.

- Mm.
- [indistinct chatter on radio]

You know this world
we livin' in?

It's becomin' morally atrocious.

Individuals with low,
low quality

just over runnin'
the whole goddamn planet.

What kinda individual
are you, Mr... Frog?

I'm an individual
who's had to talk

his way out
of a lot of hardships.

[Almond] Hmm.

Made me
quite the salesman. [chuckles]

[chuckles]

- Salesman, huh?
- [Frog] Yep.

All right, you give me
just one minute.

[telephone dialing]

- [Almond chuckles]
- [phone ringing]

Last call.

[gun cocks]

Oh, man.

[Almond exhales]

[phone ringing]

[gun cocks]

- [man] Hello.
- You still alive?

[man] Fat like Thanksgiving.
My boy there?

Yeah, he here.

[man] You set him up
with your sister yet?

[chuckles]
Fat chance.

[puts phone down]

I only got one friend
in Memphis.

Lucky for me he's mutual.

[sighs] You got one week
to turn that into a franchise.

Oh, and if anybody raises
or as much as furrows a brow...

you tell 'em you with Almond.

[Almond] Wasn't expecting
you back so soon.

I guess I was better
than you expected.

[chuckles]
Or dumber.

Oh. And about gettin'
more inventory,

- the answer's gonna be no.
- No?

It's Friday night.

I could sell two, three times
that this weekend.

You sell to those assholes
at that rate,

what's gonna happen?

They gonna end up either broke
or dead

in a couple of months
and then what?

Now, look, when I give you
a week's supply,

you make it last.
That's the rule.

Are there anymore rules
I should know?

Yeah, a shit load

and if you stretch one
the rest are useless.

[engine revving]

[man] That's him, Shelton.

[Shelton] Hey?

Sorry, fellas, I'm dry.

[Frog groans, coughs]

- I'm with Almond.
- I know.

[Frog groans]

- [shop bell rings]
- [gun cocks]

Look like you had
a rough weekend.

That caveman, Shelton,
put it on me pretty good.

- Was that on your call?
- That fuckin' Shelton.

Get that thing
outta my face and come on.

- So Shelton's not with you?
- [Almond] He used to be.

He used to be my brother-in-law.

There any other relatives
I need to worry about?

Yeah, my sister.

[man over TV]
You and I will march

straight to the cops.

So what? He's in business
on his own now?

As much as he's capable of.

That motherfucker's so dumb,

couldn't even think
of a different front.

- Why don't you just kill him?
- And then what?

Go to jail
for killing that fool?

Uh-uh. Who would take care
of my sister, you? [chuckles]

I'll deal with Shelton
when the time is right.

When the rewards outweigh
the repercussion. You dig?

What, you ain't ever hear
cost benefit analysis?

[sighs]
Come on.

Come on.

Now, remember,
you keep your mouth shut

unless he asks you
a question, got it?

Does meeting your middleman
make me your number two already?

If numbers make you feel better.

I guess it ain't everyday
you meet

a nice white man you can groom
into something.

Hey.

Who's this honky?

- Oh, that's my driver.
- [door closes]

I'd have left him in the car,

but I figured a dude sittin' in
the driveway for two hours

is a little suspicious,
so I brought him on in.

Wait here.

- [speaking Spanish]
- Who's the gringo?

Be right back.

Sit down.

[clock ticking]

Move and I'll cut your damn
head off.

Got it.

[music playing on TV]

That was fast.

Thank you
for your hospitality, senorita.

[Almond] Sit down.

[sighs]
We ain't goin' nowhere.

- We're about to watch a movie.
- The Toxic Avenger.

- [fist thudding]
- [man groaning]

Socializing part of the deal?

[men groaning]

Well, he don't
like people pullin'

into his driveway
and pullin' right back out,

so no ticky, no washy.

[all laughing]

He's on his ass.
He fell right on his ass.

Might as well
be selling ice cream.

- [laughs]
- [man laughing]

Can't be helped.

Fuck it.

Between 9:30 and 10:30
a red Cadillac

with several bricks of cocaine
in its trunk

is gonna come cruisin' down
Stringer Avenue

and turn left on Bethel Road.

[scoffs]

I got nothin' to say to you.

Well, it was gonna
be somebody. [chuckles]

Isn't part of you glad
it was me?

Why couldn't you just kill me?

Because I respect you, Almond.
I learned a lot from you.

You respect me, huh?

Well, you're gonna take care
of all my responsibilities...

as a man.

- Let's hear it.
- [Almond] First thing...

you take care of my sister.
Put her in the Rissler House.

Best fuckin' suite they got.

All right.

[Almond]
And if you haven't already...

you kill Shelton.

One condition.

I want the middleman.

I want him
in good fuckin' standing.

You thought of everything,
didn't ya?

You can have him.

You have him...

and be cursed.

[puts phone down]

[laughs]
This fucking idiot.

Every time, man, look at him.

He come up, he don't know
what he gonna end up with.

[indistinct sports commentary]

I ain't seen this one yet.

So, I'm going through
some lifestyle changes.

I need to cash out.

I wanna sell you my wholesaler.

- How much?
- Hundred thousand.

I'll give ya 60.

[bones clattering]

Ah, shit.

[Swin] Look what I found.

- Are those bones?
- Mm-hmm.

Human bones?
Who the hell's this?

It was a fluke Bright died.

He was a bad ass.

You might be one of those.
Little old you.

What you got?

Forty-four thousand dollars.

- That was here in the house?
- In the drier.

Set to permanent press.

[sighs]
Well, what do we do with it?

Nothin'.
Put it back in the dryer.

Someone will come for it.

Forty-four grand doesn't just
get lost in the shuffle.

Tomorrow we'll reopen the park,

make sure everything's spotless
and then wait.

Okay, what are we
gonna tell Her?

Ah, fuck.

I forgot about Her.

She sent us to Castor.
For all we know she set us up.

Okay, we'll tell her
Bright's on a trip.

[chuckling] That lie
has a pretty short shelf life.

Well, I'm sorry I don't have
a ten-year fucking plan

- mapped out for us.
- All right, all right.

[clears throat] Let's just get
the lie straight, okay?

We're gonna say that Bright
went to Oklahoma...

with an Indian.

- That's it?
- That's it.

You throw in a couple details,
but you don't worry

about if the listener
believes the story or not.

It's the apathy of authority.

- Okay. Oklahoma with an Indian.
- Oklahoma with an Indian.

And don't name the Indian.
Like Shits Where He Eats.

- You're a fuckin' idiot.
- [Swin sighs]

A live idiot.

This fella here
is a dead wise man.

In today's top story,
a man from Castor, Louisiana,

was found dead in a suspected
gang style execution.

There are no suspects...

- What?
- ...but Castor Police

- are asking the public...
- No.

...for any information that
could help their investigation.

- [Swin sighs]
- [turns TV off]

Did you ever get ahold
of anybody in the company?

No, I tried Colin,
but he didn't pick up.

Fuckin' try him again.
He never leaves his shop.

[telephone keypad beeping]

[phone ringing, beeping]

- [automated voice] We're sorry.
- Ah, shit!

- You have reached a number...
- What?

...that has been
disconnected or is no...

It's disconnected.

- Fuck!
- [Swin] Do you have

another number for Colin or, um,

maybe we could try that guy,
the guy with the ear thing.

Um, fuckin' Rock Pile.

Um...

I mean, I used to know...

the guy
that I met Colin through.

Fuckin', um, Dennis or...
Or Denny. Uh...

[telephone ringing]

- Answer the fuckin' phone.
- [Kyle] Yeah.

- Yeah?
- [Her] The bake sale is a go.

[Kyle] Okay.

- [telephone beeps]
- Who's that?

That was Her.

I think.

She said,
"The bake sale is a go."

Go on and stare for ten seconds.
Go on.

I was doin' my treatment.
I got a disorder.

Makes my hands
and feet sensitive.

Doctors never could diagnose it.
Said it was all in my head.

My mother said,
"Well, fix that then."

I read that very little pain
is in the mind.

I can't wait to die.

Be a lot simpler
if I could kill myself,

but that's a sin
and I ain't goin' to hell.

I'm waitin' on the Lord
to strike me down.

Smart.

Yes.
Father, your will, your way.

Take me, Father.

Yes, Father.

- So, the packet?
- Don't be rude.

Don't be rude.

- There's a way to treat a lady.
- Thank you.

Where's the ranger?

He went to Oklahoma
with an Indian.

What kinda car did
the Indian drive?

I think it might've been a Kia.

Could've been a Hyundai.

Just say how the fuck
should I know?

[chuckles]
I like boys like y'all...

that don't get hung up
on having a long life.

Say thank you.

- [Kyle] Thank you.
- [Swin] Thank you.

Welcome.

Should we go or...

- Yeah.
- [Her] Yeah.

Okay.

- [indistinct TV chatter]
- Hey, dude.

What the fuck
are you doin' in here?

[Swin] I got the flu.
I came over here to rest.

Those trailers
are so uncomfortable.

We shouldn't hang out here
except when it's necessary.

- Could look weird.
- I'm not. It's one day, relax.

[knocking on door]

You expectin' somebody?

It's just Johnna,
she's bringing me some soup.

You better not be letting her
in on anything, I mean it.

It's soup.
Would you fuckin' chill?

- [Johnna] Hey, Kyle.
- Hey. He's in there.

- [groans]
- [Johnna] I knew you'd be sick,

because I was sick two days ago.
I brought you chicken broth.

Just broth, no soup?

- Trust me.
- You're the doctor.

- [Johnna] I'm a nurse actually.
- [Swin chuckles]

Whoa, this is a nice house.

This is the nicest house
I've ever been in.

I mean, it could use
some touches, but, wow.

[woman over TV] You have
a bigger guest bath...

- Who all lives here?
- [Kyle] Our boss.

We can use it,
but not sleep in it.

[woman over TV] If you
were willing to do that...

[Johnna] Why? Who else works
at this park?

See? I knew this would happen.
I knew you'd become intrigued

of me
and my glamorous lifestyle.

We work for a private firm
that's been hired

to evaluate
the state park system.

Head ranger here
was deemed unfit,

so he got sent to an
Indian reservation in Oklahoma.

We're just stayin' on
to put things right

until he's replaced.

What exactly
are you puttin' right?

[sighs] Mostly just, uh,
book keepin', you know?

But if the house is empty,
why...

No, can't use it.
It's a conflict of interest.

I mean, nobody'd really know
if we did.

We only come here
for meals, okay?

In fact we're about to leave,

- so we should probably just...
- [pounding on door]

You invite somebody else?

No.

[pounding on door]

Mornin'. Uh, don't be disturbed.

I'm, uh, here lookin'
for a Patrick Bright.

Uh, head ranger.

Well, we're not disturbed.

Ranger Bright
isn't available right now.

Maybe I should start over.

Okay.

I'm Barry.

I'm a good friend of...

Well, my dad was a good friend
of Ranger Bright's.

Guys started a tree service
together years ago.

Yeah, so, anyway,
he passed away,

so I'm drivin' across
the country and visiting

all of his old pals, you know?
Trying to...

Anyway. Uh,

he always said Ranger Bright
was one of the good guys, so...

here we are.

He is indeed, but unfortunately
he's not here right now.

We're the juniors rangers.
I'm Mollar, that's Suarez.

- Junior rangers?
- That's what I said.

- [chuckles]
- Sorry you came all this way.

Bright's at a convention
in Tulsa.

Somethin' about
Native American's.

[Barry] Oh, is he?
When's he gonna be back?

They don't tell us.
How about I take your number?

I'd like to get her number.

- We don't want any trouble.
- [Swin] No, no, no trouble.

Oh... you two?

Well, I wouldn't wanna break up
such a lovely couple.

[Swin]
No danger of that, Barry.

I'm smarter than you
and younger.

- Are you?
- [Swin] Mm-hmm.

Well, I'm rich.
I'm not a junior anything.

Barry, I could buy
that pretty little truck

out from under you
with 100-dollar bills.

- Could you?
- [Swin] Mm-hmm.

- Man, it'd take a lot them...
- Okay, fun's over, man.

- ...100-dollar bills, buddy.
- See you soon.

Hey, if you... Hey!

Hey, where'd you get all them
100-dollar bills,

huh, little man?

Huh?

Is that true about the hundreds?

[Barry] I'll see you soon.

Mostly. It's complicated.

[woman on TV] All the storage
you need and...

[Johnna] Junior rangers...

right?

And I thought Bright was
at remedial training?

No he... He is. It's, um...

It's... Yeah. It's just all...
It's all complicated.

It's boring.

You don't wanna...
you don't even wanna...

What are we gonna do with
the money we got from this run?

Put it in the dryer
with the rest.

Frog will probably be impressed

we held onto it this long,
you know?

Probably already counted it
as just lost.

How much you think he knows?

Uh, maybe only that
something's not right.

Maybe he knows about
every piss we take.

- Maybe Barry works for Frog too.
- Holy shit. [chuckles]

Also a possibility.

[Kyle] You know,
you might be right.

Maybe we should get a gun.

I actually might know
a pawn shop we could check out.

[knocks]

[Frog] It's not Halloween.

What are these kids doing
at my door?

[Swin]
Oh, Halloween's for Baptists.

- [indistinct chatter on radio]
- [Frog] I suppose that's true.

Come on in.

[Swin] Thank you.

- You remember me?
- [Frog] Well...

I didn't forget ya.

This is my buddy, Ed.
[groans]

- Hello, Ed.
- Hey.

- We need guns.
- A gun, singular.

For what?

Well, we work over at the park

and we got our vacation
coming up.

We like to shoot targets
to relax,

but all we have
is these shitty rifles.

Our boss said
we should try here for handguns.

Ranger Bright said you should
try to get a gun from me?

[Swin] Oh, yeah.

He really respects you.
Said nothing mystifies you.

Hmm.

Shit. Hang on.

It's the seventh inning here.
Boys are down.

[commentator] ...Freeman did
and just like that...

- [Frog] All righty.
- ...there's one out...

[Frog] Yeah,
we get that game going here.

[commentator] He tried to get
a little fancy there

- and it didn't work out.
- [Frog] Sorry about that.

[commentator] He really took
that lead and...

- Where were we?
- Guns.

[radio continues indistinctly]

That's right.

Well, I ain't got no guns,
but, uh,

you can go to Little Rock
and get ya a gun.

Well, we got a real problem
with city guns.

We want somethin'
from out in the sticks

that someone's dead daddy owned.

What's the plan for you two?

You know, in life?

Excuse me?

- Well...
- [lighter clinking]

...it's not too late to get on
a raft and float downstream...

because bad things
can happen to those

that don't pay
the community fees.

You're a little nutty.

- [lighter clinking]
- I love it.

It's fair to say that
you traffic in some

underground goods.

What's the going rate
for a set of human bones?

[commentator]
That ball swung on.

There's a high ride into
right center field and boy,

this is gonna hurt us.

- Depends on the person.
- [chuckles]

You gonna sell us a gun or not?

No, I am not...

because in your line of work...

guns is as likely
to get you killed

as it is to protect ya.

And what line of work is that?

Rangering.

Hmm.

What's your line of work?

Guess I'm a ranger, too.

Guess we all are.

Yeah.

Okay.

Thanks for the smoke.

- Where's Swin?
- [Johnna] Joggin'.

Said the increased oxygen flow
helps his brain.

[Kyle] Hmm.

Can I help you with somethin'?

[sighs] I need to know
how long you're stayin'...

and don't say to ask Swin.

It's impossible to tell
right now and that's the truth.

[Johnna]
He doesn't tell me a thing.

He won't even tell me

where his family lives.
[chuckles]

Well, at this moment
we have no plans to leave.

Okay.

You don't need to tell me
anything exact, but...

how bad is it?

What you two do?

I mean, if you got caught,

how long a sentence
are we talking?

Rangers in trainin'?

Park auditors? I'm not stupid.

I should check you for a wire.

Why?

I like you, Johnna, but the
truth is I don't know you.

Where would I hide
a wire? [chuckles]

Oh, okay.

Yeah, okay.

Well, it's hard to say
about jail sentences.

I mean, rapists get off,
pot heads go to prison.

Depends what kinda evidence
they got or who rats you out.

Sometimes you can buy a way out.

What is all this?
Are you all right?

I'm pregnant.

I'm pregnant.

And I'm tryin' to figure out
how to tell Swin.

I mean, I...

I could always make
somethin' up and dump him.

No. No, you can't do that.

- [sighs]
- You can if you want, but...

I think you should face...

Look, I don't know
what I'm trying to say.

Should you be eating
all that candy?

I just wanna know where I stand.

Yeah?

A lot of people think
that parenting is impossible,

because their own parents
were lousy.

Yeah, I don't know anyone
who had good parents.

[Johnna] I didn't...

and I turned out all right.

We're drug runners.

Like wholesale.

We make runs all through
the south down to Florida...

and Park Ranger Bright,
he was our boss.

A few weeks ago
a guy followed us back

from a run and killed Bright.

We didn't know what to do
or who to tell, so...

we buried Bright's body
in the park

and I went back and I killed
the guy's grandfather.

Now we're flyin' blind.

Sittin' on all this cash.
We don't know what to do with it

or who to give it to, we just...

We keep takin' assignments
as they come and doin' our best.

If we were gonna run away
we'd have done it already...

as soon as we found the bodies.

[sighs]

[Kyle sighs]

Who am I kiddin'?

These trailers
are pieces of shit.

We might as well live up
at Bright's house.

[Johnna] We need to go shopping
this weekend.

This weekend.

We need to get a stroller,
crib, that kinda thing.

The list is long.

I can't this weekend,
we got work.

Okay. Where are you goin'?

[sighs]

I would love to tell you
every little thing that we do,

but it's better for you
if I don't.

You sound stupid
when you say stuff like that.

You don't think it's kinda sexy?

I never thought anything
was sexy in my life.

- [chuckles]
- [door opens]

- I don't.
- [chuckling]

Why did you get a soda?
We got that here.

- [Kyle] Value meal.
- [car approaching]

That old frat boy came back.

[car door opens, closes]

He is determined.

[Barry] Hey, sweetheart,
where you goin'?

You ain't gonna say hi?

Oh, you never called.

I didn't wanna torture you.

Hey, Barry.
Is your daddy still dead?

Yep. I take it, uh,
Mr. Bright ain't available?

Afraid not.

Bright actually got transferred
to Oklahoma.

[laughs]

Oklahoma.

- Come on, where is he?
- Barry, what makes you think

that I'd give a flying fuck
if you talk to Bright or not?

[clears throat]

Anybody thirsty?

[clears throat] Barry, I think
it'd be best if we made you

that lemonade to go
and got you on your way.

We should do that.

Why would I bother myself tryin'

to figure all this out anyway,
you know?

[Barry laughs]

You know what's funny?

Every time I come over here...

you boys are here,
just hangin' out.

Nothin' to do, hmm?

Seem a bit suspicious to you?

Hmm?

How about you?
You know where Mr. Bright is?

[pitcher shatters]

Oh, my God.
Babe, don't look, don't look.

Look at me, look at me,
look at me, look at me.

Hey, look at me.
Don't look at him.

You're okay. You're okay.
You're okay.

[Kyle] It's okay.

You're one of us now.

[Johnna sighs]

I was in grad school.

How much for an oil change?

- No charge.
- Well, it has to cost somethin'.

We don't need money.
We live with our aunt.

Bring it over.

I'm Tim, he's Thomas.

How long you been
outta school?

- We can read.
- And then some.

What does your aunt think
you do all day?

Our aunt don't really care
what we do all day.

She believes what we tell her.

What if you told her
y'all went off to college?

Well, she'd think
we was off to college.

How do you like
being mechanics?

We think
it ain't gonna work out.

Well, it happens,
I'm in the black market game.

Happens I'm lookin'
for some help.

[indistinct chatter on radio]

So what do you say?

You guys wanna try
workin' for me?

What's the title?

Oh, uh...

Senior Distribution Executive.

It's a good position
for two corn fed white boys.

I'm only gonna say this
one time, so listen the fuck up.

Y'all listenin'?

- [Thomas] Yep.
- [Tim] We're listenin'.

I'm the boss.

You may never refuse an order
and you may never quit.

If you decide to run off...

I will hunt ya down
and I'll kill ya,

no matter how much
I've grown to like ya.

You're not allowed
to bring girls around,

and you will not show out
and make a fool outta me.

Tim, you'll no longer
wear that earring.

You take the damn thing out
right now.

- Yes, sir.
- In time...

you two might take over
the operations,

cutting me in
for a percentage.

You're different people now.

You're drug dealers.
[chuckles]

[engine starts]

- [shop bell rings]
- [Frog] Tim, Thomas?

Mornin', boss.

- What are you kiddies up to?
- Just makin' doughnuts.

Asleep at the wheel
of the American dream.

- [chuckling]
- [shop bell rings]

The ovens are busted,
ain't got no doughnuts.

Only thing for sale
is this painting

of Tim and Thomas.

And, uh, this right here...

- for the right price.
- [chuckling]

- I'm not lookin' for doughnuts.
- Well, good for you.

[Pony Tail]
Let's cut the bullshit.

- Come again?
- Knoxville wants

to buy everything you can
get your hands on

in the next ten days.

- You mean Conway from Knoxville?
- I said Knoxville, didn't I?

Well, I'm not sure
what I can get my hands on.

Find out.

Hmm.

[shop bell rings]

Attitude.

[Frog] It's everything.
We talked about that.

[Tim] We cleaned everyone out.

I bet there ain't no spec
of coke

in the whole god dang state.

You sure you want us to leave?

Yeah, I don't want Knoxville
getting nervous

at the sight of you two.

Don't worry,
this ain't my first rodeo.

- Go on, get.
- [Thomas] Yes, sir.

Seven-fifty in cash,
half a million in assets.

This is what you call
next level.

We got buyin' power now.

We need to expand.

Well, gang bangers are taking
more streets day by day.

We're gonna have to set up
some high-end exclusives.

What do you think, Frog?

I think you can grow
the business

any damn way
you wanna grow the business.

It's your business now.
You do what you want with it.

I trust you.

[Thomas] You feeling
all right, boss?

[Tim] Maybe you took
too many hits to the head.

The only mistake
my mentor ever made,

was not knowin'
when to step aside and...

I don't want it to be like that
with us.

It's time I handed it over.

You boys are ready.

[Frog] Semi-retirement
has a luxurious tone to it,

don't you think?

It does to me.

I'll find me a small place
out in the country,

maybe over by Bright's park.

I'll open up
a little curio shop.

Sleep late, go to bed early,
sell people shit

they don't need in between.

We wanna have as much
good debt as possible.

One day we're gonna be
level six investors.

[Thomas] Right.
Like true capitalists...

[Frog] I'll be like those
mob bosses in movies...

sittin' around in pizza joints,
gettin' fat.

It's a privilege I owe to you.

You boys
have made this possible...

and unless there are people
stupid enough to provoke me...

stupid enough to create
a threat to us or our business,

be it through youth or
cockiness or ignorance...

or whatever brand
of idiocy it would require...

I'll gladly lie dormant
in my little shell...

while you two run the show.

Sorry about that.

Where were we?

[Kyle] My actions don't seem
to have any consequence.

[pounding on door]

Someone might still come
to kill us,

but it seems less likely
with each passing day.

Near as I can tell, Bright's
death was my promotion.

I guess as long
as his operation is runnin',

Frog don't care
who's runnin' it.

- [Johnna] Cornelius.
- Beautiful.

- Beautiful.
- Like Planet of the Apes.

- Oh, yeah.
- [Kyle] I'd like to meet Frog.

[Swin] It's a good movie though.

[Kyle] I'd like to know
what he thinks of me,

as much for curiosity's sake
as self-preservation.

[fireworks exploding]

I'd like to look him
in the eye...

and see if it looks
like a mirror.

Packets on hold
until I talk to Ranger Bright.

[Her] What? Oh!

Y'all interrupting
my exercise time.

Exercise?

Why would you be exercising

if you wanna die
as soon as possible?

I wonder what your rude friend

wants to do if I don't have
a packet, hmm?

I intend to kill you
by strangulation.

Now, it'll be suicide,

'cause I'm giving you
a fuckin' warning.

Why not just shoot me?

All I brought
are my big strong hands.

What, do you roll the ball
around in a circle 500 times?

Shut your ass up.

[Kyle]
Is this an order from Frog?

Frog said no more packets

until he finds out
what's happenin' over here?

That's right.

He wants to know what happened
to Ranger Bright.

Right, and we're probably
supposed to tell you

so you can tell him.

- Right.
- Bull fuckin' shit.

Are you the boss
of this whole thing?

- Don't be an idiot.
- [Swin] Wait a minute.

- Are you the Frogman?
- [Her chuckling]

You have no intuition.

Intuition is for women.

You don't need to worry
about intuition right now.

What you need to worry about
is the fact

that you're an unnecessary
middleman

and we've been thinking about
streamlining.

Frog will be impressed
if we can make

this operation more efficient.

You are superfluous.

What the fuck does that mean?
You can't do that.

You can't streamline.

We do a whole bunch of shit
we're not supposed to do.

- Frog don't seem to mind.
- You don't understand.

I'm a buffer.
I'm a vital layer of insolation.

[chuckles]

[Kyle] Hmm.

I'm convinced you have
a packet in here

and I refuse to tear
the place up.

Now, you're gonna hobble
right over and get it for me.

[Swin]
How does one practice intuition?

- Do you pray?
- [Swin] Mm-hmm.

Most prayers sound hollow
in your head.

But every once in awhile
one echoes.

That's the same as intuition.

I'll pray for you
if you pray for me.

The packet!

It's stuffed in the ball
you asshole.

- What the fuck?
- Why would you hide it from us?

'Cause I was scared,
just like y'all are.

Now, I wanna know
what happened to Ranger Bright.

He was my friend.

- Your friend?
- [Her] Yes.

You think that distributing
a manila envelope

every two weeks
constitutes a friendship?

- To me and the ranger it did.
- [exhales]

[Kyle] Oh.

We're not scared.

You said we're scared,
same as you, but that's wrong.

We're not.

Consider that your baby shower.

I'm sorry.

You're right.

"Sandra Bullock is the happiest
she's ever been.

She views her divorce
and its fall out

as a blessing
and something she grew from."

I'm sorry, but those magazines

are the canary and the coal mine
of Western civilization.

- Stop it. They're fun.
- It's materialism run rampant.

All that celebrity worship
and trash culture.

It's drivin' everybody crazy
and they don't even realize it.

Keep talking, Professor.

What do you think
all these zombie movies

and post-apocalyptic stories
are about the last few years?

- What?
- All these children's novels

about over throwin'
the government and fighting

- each other to death.
- What are you talkin' about?

It's mass projection.

Everybody wants
the world to end,

because if that's what's passing
for the American dream

these days
they all wanna opt out.

- Of what?
- Of everything, fuckin' society.

Is that what you picture
you did? Opt out?

Touché.

- [Johnna giggles]
- You wanna know the big reveal?

- Hmm?
- You can't opt out.

You can't, I tried.
I thought I had done it.

But look at me.

Here I am. Still ended up
with a boss, a job,

and a wacky coworker
and a baby on the way.

[Johnna] It's a boy.

[chuckles]
Is that a fact?

It is.

- Boy?
- [Johnna] Yeah.

[exhales, chuckles]

I'd like to get the baby some
savings bonds for, you know,

save up for college.

Or clown school?

Or open a gun range.
[chuckles]

Why won't you marry me?

I don't not want to get married,
but...

[tuts] ...we're still
in the infatuation stage.

Even though we're having
a kid together

there's no denying
that we're infatuated.

That would be hard to deny.

We should wait until
after we're not attracted

to each other anymore to make
a decision about marriage.

- It just doesn't make sense.
- What if that never happens?

Just give it time.

[Swin chuckles]

[Frog] Colin was killed.

Cops busted into his shop
and shot him...

lookin' for information
about a car

and a dead kid they pulled
outta the swamp.

Ranger Bright's body
hasn't been found, but...

I'm pretty sure
he's been killed too.

I sent Barry over there
to investigate.

Now he's missing.

They come here
and scare you half to death.

Then they stop by my shop,
ask me if I wanted to...

purchase a set of human bones.

These two are supposed to be
workin' for me.

They're about the worst enemies
I've ever had.

I never had anybody kill my
associates or steal my money.

Whether they have a plan...

or they're just lost in a maze
of their own fuck ups,

it don't matter now.

They're stupid.

That's what makes them
dangerous.

They'll be caught soon.

And whatever happens
after they've been caught...

well...

whatever would've happened

after they've been caught
ain't never gonna happen.

You're gonna give 'em
one last package.

One last trip.

Somethin' to make
them feel comfortable.

Make it close to Hot Springs.

They're feelin' lucky like,
uh... [chuckles]

...something's goin' right
for 'em.

Nothing's ever gonna go right
for them again.

Love you, baby.

Sure you do.

We shouldn't be here.

[gun cocks]

Gray Cyprus, Kentucky.
Tell Johnna, Gray Cyprus.

- [Thomas] What'd you say?
- That's your sisters?

- [Swin] Mm-hmm.
- Don't be talkin' in code.

Is he your brother
or your husband?

[chuckles]
He's funny.

Frisk 'em.

[Swin grunts]

- They're clean.
- Get in the tub.

You, come on.

Let's go. Get.

Let's go.

Let's go. Let's go, move.

[Swin] Oh, you act tough now,
but we'll be friends.

Everybody that meets me
wants to be my friend.

We work for you, don't we?

[scoffs]

So what were we supposed
to do, hmm?

What would you have done
if you were us?

[Tim] Well...

we both know
you ain't gotta do anything

to get in this spot...

and I ain't you.

Not by a long shot.

Nah, you're a fat fuckin' slob.

[chuckles]

What about the pawn shop guy
that doesn't sell anything?

What do you think?

I was starting to think
he was Frog.

He was right there
the whole time.

[chuckles]

So this outfit's based
in Little Rock?

It ain't based anywhere.

Why so secretive?

You're planning
to kill me, right?

Oh, it's way passed
the planning stages.

First we need that cash...

location of the bodies,
the girl.

You should question Swin.

I'm not bothered by torture.

Well, if I was gonna
question Swin,

I'd have to hurry, 'cause he
gonna be dead in a minute...

and if you keep being
such a pain,

well, we'll just go ahead
and shoot you in the head too.

We don't need
the money that bad,

and we can find the girl
on our own.

- The girl doesn't know shit.
- Apparently not...

hangin' out with you two losers.

If I was you...

I'd go ahead and speed
the plan up.

Keepin' me alive is only
gonna end badly for you.

Don't embarrass yourself
trying to scare me.

Of course, your brother's
the only one allowed

to have a gun,
so we'll have to wait.

Why don't you just go ahead
and shut the fuck up right now?

[chuckles]

[gunshots]

[Kyle]
Why do people keep doin' stuff?

Wipin' counters down...

takin' pictures,
cheatin', offendin' things?

What the fuck is the point?

It's evolved.

[both grunt]

Many schools of thought, but,
in layman's terms,

being the most
sophisticated monkey

also makes you
the most confused monkey.

So takin' action,
any action at all...

is a way to alleviate
that confusion.

What's your line of work?

Guess I'm a ranger, too.

Guess we all are.

[both grunt]

[Tim groans]

[Tim sobs]

[sobs]

[Kyle knocks]

Jesus, just go ahead
and tell me.

Uh...

Swin was never scared.

He never begged
or tried to sell me out.

He was just...

He was exactly Swin to the last.

You got ten minutes to pack up
and leave Arkansas for good.

Here's the money
for you and the baby.

You go to Kentucky and you find
a town called Gray Cyprus.

That's where
Swin's family lives.

Kentucky?

Swin's got, like, 40 sisters.

Little guy will have
more attention

than he knows what to do with.

[Johnna groans]

[sighs] The baby knows
something's happening.

His real last name's Horn.

I know.

[sighs]

You could come with me.

No, I couldn't.
It wouldn't be safe for ya.

I know, I just wanted
to at least have said it.

Where... Where are you gonna go?

[Kyle] I don't know.

I liked it here...

and I liked livin' with you
and Swin.

I don't know what...

[Frog] Kyle's gone.

You got a choice
to make, Thomas.

You can spend your whole life
lookin' for revenge.

Go crazy...

and ruin yourself...

or you can get passed it...

run the business.

You hear me?

[Tim] One day we're gonna be
level six investors.

[Thomas] Right, like,
true capitalists, you know?

We're gonna own
everything together.

- You know, like a team, like...
- [Tim] Like a team.

Yeah, yeah. Like, but like us,
you know what I'm sayin'?

- You want some of this?
- [Tim] Yes, please.

So it's all just gone?

That's it?

I'm broke?

Thomas sold everything.
He cashed out all the accounts.

Stocks, bonds, you name it.

He said,
"Time is of the essence."

Thomas said,
"Time if of the essence?"

Well...

he said, "Hurry the hell up"
is what he said.

[chuckles]

This is the danger
of a joint account.

Even if someone's like family,
hell, is family...

we can never really be sure
what goes on

in another human's mind.

Ain't that right?

[Frog] Mm-hmm.

[fire crackling]

- [man] Yeah, who's this?
- Froggy from Memphis.

- [man] Who?
- Colin's boss.

[man] I thought Colin's bosses
were two big twins.

Yeah, I was their boss.
I had to let 'em all go.

[man] Frog? Frog?
[chuckling]

Okay, I know who you are.
Figured you'd be retired by now.

I tried, but, uh, you know,
it didn't suit me.

I'm gettin' my hand back in.

What I need...

is a weekly shipment
to Oklahoma City.

[man] Can't do it.

In Oklahoma it's all meth
and the meth is all local.

Oklahoma's a bad choice.

These days it's nothin'
but scumbags in the business.

Well,
there's always been scumbags.

I'm a scumbag.

[man] I'll tell you what,
take this number down.

Anybody who can get you
started it's CQ.

- You got a pen?
- Come on with it.

[man] 947-5583.

Got ya.

[man] Like I said,
Oklahoma is no good.

Don't say I didn't warn ya.

[dial tone]

[clock ticking]

[chuckles]

[chuckles]

[Frog] Oklahoma's
whatever I say it is.

If Arkansas
is what I say it is...

Oklahoma's what I say it is.

I'll start with nothin'.

Maybe I'll get me some new boys.

Maybe I won't.

Maybe I'll work
for somebody else. [chuckles]

That'd be a fuckin' hoot.

One day my story
will come to light.

It'll be pieced together...

passed down...

exaggerated, doubted...

insisted upon.

I will have a grand final act.

Looks like Thomas found ya.

Yeah.

He's dead.

And then some.

[Frog] I'm a killer.

You're not.

I'm smart...

you're not. I'm the boss.

You may never refuse an order
and you may never quit.

[chuckles]
Now, I never asked for my life

to become a great story...

but that's
what's happenin' here...

and now it's happenin'
to you, too.

You're different people now.

You're drug dealers.
[chuckles]

[Kyle] I'm a drug dealer.

No one knows
they're a drug dealer

until they become one.

Once they do...

there's no resignin' the post.
