Hey Buster.

Oh, hey Buster.

Joy to the world.

Hey, when you get finished
playin' with yourself,

can you give me a cigarette?

Here you go.

Thank you.

You got a light?

You want me to smoke it for ya too?

Woohoo, is that bus driver pissed

he sure is.

Well I'm glad it's Friday.

I had school up my ass.

Yeah, you and me both.

Hey Buster.

You know Sally pretty well, don't ya?

No, not really.

Well she hangs around
Margie all the time.

Yeah, so what?

Well she...

She smiled at me this mornin' on the bus.

Why don't you ask her for a date?

Tonight?

Sure.

If you can't get your old man's
car, you can double with me.

You think she's purty?

Sure, she's a purty girl.

Don't you think so, Warren?

Yeah, yeah.

She's sharp, real sharp.

Oh, here comes Buster.

We'll see you, Buster.

Hey, you look mad.

What's the matter?

Oh, I just failed a history exam.

- Hi Sally.
- Hi.

well that's all right.

You can make it up on the next one.

Is that albino a friend of yours?

Yeah, why?

Well he came up to me at recess

and asked me to go out with him tonight.

What'd you say?

Well what do you think I said?

I said, "no, thank you."

Buster, he's ugly.

When's the last time
you won a beauty contest,

you hoot owl lookin' bitch?

Buster!

Buster!

She's my best friend.

I don't care, honey.

I don't like that girl a'tall.

Hey Whitey!

Come on, I'll give you a ride.

Boy, I lied to you this mornin'.

I feel terrible about it.

You lied to me, 'bout what?

You asked me if I
thought Sally was pretty

and I said, "yeah."

Sure hope you didn't ask her for a date.

Well how come?

'Cause she ain't pretty.

She looks like a damn hoot owl.

Anyway, you can do better than that

any day of the week, dude.

Well I ain't gonna date her.

That's good.

Ooh, look at that bus driver.

How do you do?

Ooh Buster, he hates you.

What are we waitin' on?

Waitin' for him to get a
little farther down the road.

I'm gonna give him the finger.

Let's get him!

No no no, wait a second.

Hey Buster, are you
comin' to Jake's tonight

before you pick up Margie?

I ain't datin' Margie tonight.

How come?

Let's go get him.

He didn't mean that, Sally.

He was just mad 'cause
you said Whitey was ugly.

Well I'm no bitch

and I don't like bein' called one.

Sally, do you remember when
Whitey first came to school

and everybody made fun of him?

Yeah?

Well nobody dared to say anything

once Buster made him his friend.

So when you called Whitey
an albino, Buster flipped.

I don't care
if he is Buster's friend.

I'm not goin' out with him.

Just because you think he's ugly?

He is.

Besides, that he's messing
around with that crazy girl

Billie Jo Truluck.

A bunch of the boys from the tfa

are you know, doin' it to her.

Margie, you don't suppose Buster?

Sally, sometimes
you are ridiculous.

Buster loves me.

Well those guys
are his best friends.

Good god, Sally please.

Hey Jake, you old buzzard.

Gimme a beer, huh?

How you doin', Buster?

Comin' right up.

Four to go, right?

Nope, not tonight, Jake.

Sheriff, you leavin' already?

Yeah, gotta get back.

I'm comin' in to springer tomorrow.

May stop by.

Do that.

How you doin', Buster?

Sheriff.

Lucky ducky, who's next?

I'll take you on, Smitty.

How much you shootin' for?

Are you kiddin'?

I'd have to give myself
one hell of a handicap,

like a blindfold.

Go on save your money, Phil.

Later I'll shoot you a game for funsies.

Hey, you loudmouth,
hickey-lookin' bastard.

How much money you got on ya?

$23, son.

Best two outta three take the cash?

Sure

We got ourselves a game, boys.

Put me down for $2, 2.50.

Big spender from the east.

Okay, you got it, dude.

I'm bettin' $5.00 on Buster.

I ain't got but $1.00, but
I'm bettin' it on Buster.

You're covered too.

Rack 'em up.

I got my arm back.

You better shoot your best shot.

You better win this, Buster,
or I don't eat for a week.

My life is ridin' on you, Buster.

What do you say?
Buster, you can get it.

Let's go, c'mon.

Let's go.

Four balls on the break.

Smitty, you're dead.

# cheated and you lie #

well you can't win 'em all.

Oh, shut up.

Hey Jake, how's my credit?

Anything up to $10.

Well listen, get my friends

Appreciate it, Buster.

C'mon, Warren. Let's get it.

Now wait a minute.

Hey Buster, gimme a cigarette.

Well sure, Smitty.

Hey, where you guys goin'?

We're gonna go get some poontang.

They're goin' to get Billie Jo.

They're gonna get Billie!

Hey Warren, can we go with ya?

Well maybe you can.

Hold it, hold it, hold it.

Now listen you guys can go.

But just remember I'm

And one of you guys gotta go get her.

All right, odd man
out goes and gets her.

Sure.

Ready? Go.

Come on, Whitey.

Billie wants you.

What are you waitin' on?

You're not scared, are you Whitey?

I ain't scared of nothin'.

Sure, you're not.

Don't let the boogieman get you.

Boo.

# anytime #

# your world is lonely #

boy, that song tears me up.

Grandmother tells me she feels real bad

about you missin' 'em two year of school.

Yeah, we had a couple
pretty bad, bad years.

That late frost last year like to kill us.

That and that goddamn rain.

# that will be #

Buster,

I don't wanna get personal.

But how come you don't take on Billie Jo

with Warren and them?

I'll tell you, Jake.

There's two things I
think oughta be private:

Takin' a shit and gettin' laid.

I know what you mean.

And you're older than them.

You're gettin' married
pretty soon anyway, ain't ya?

Mm-hmm,

after I graduate in June.

That is if I graduate.

Jake's.

Y'all here?

Yeah.

Just a minute.

Hello?

Well I miss you too, honey.

I'm sorry too.

How soon can you be ready?

Buster Lane!

If you don't quit
drivin' like a crazy man,

I'm gonna have to get out my switch!

How are you tonight, Mrs. Hooks?

I'm just fine.

Come on in.

Hello son, have a seat.

Buster.

Hey, I was winnin'.

Margie'll be out in a minute.

Yes, ma'am.

Fire feels pretty good.

Still cool nights.

Yes, sir. It sure is

Carl, I know Buster don't want any,

but I'll bring you some of that

fresh batch of sticky I just made.

Sticky?

Oh, Mrs. Hooks. I could kiss you.

I been wantin' some of
your sticky for weeks.

I hear your dad's gettin' along okay.

Yes, sir. He's comin' along just fine.

How's the farm?

We had a pretty good year.

After that last year,
that seems like a miracle.

Here, Buster. Help yourself.

Oh thank you, ma'am.

Mmm, that's good.

Could I have another piece for later?

Thank you.

Well I'm ready.

Mama, snap this snap for me?

Our little girl's all grown up.

We's real proud of her, Buster.

Yes, sir.

She's a real lady.

Come on, let's go.

Where you two kids goin' tonight?

I think we'll go over to
springer to see a movie.

Well now you two be careful

and don't you dare go down to black creek.

Remember that girl that got
killed by the man with the hook?

Oh, I think that's just a rumor.

Beside, we don't go down there anyway.

Night, sir.

- Bye.
- Y'all have a good time.

Ooh, god.

- I'm freezin'.
- Freezin'.

I'm freezin"!

Me too.

Hurry up, Warren.

I ain't cold.

You ain't never cold.

Can't wait to get ahold
of them jugs of hers.

Get back down there and
look out for the sheriff.

Go on.

Come on, Warren.

Hurry up.

Hey Warren,

save some of Billie Jo for the rest of us.

Fireball Lane takes the lead.

Slow down, Buster.

I mean it or just let me out.

Where we goin'?

As if I didn't know.

Yep, good ol' black creek.

I love you.

I love you.

I love you.

I love you.

I love you.

Love you.

Love you.

I love you.

I love you.

I love you.

I love you.

I think I want some sugar.

That's what I want.

It hurts.

What's the matter?

I'm still sore from last week.

Oh honey, I can't stand it.

Let me put it in ya.

No!

We've waited this long.

Now we have to wait 'til June.

Snap this snap for me?

Boy.

What's the matter?

Nothin', I'm all right.

Boy, damn.

Are you sure?

Yeah, I'm sure.

I just hope that article

that I read in "reader's
digest" wasn't right.

What?

Nothin...

Buster, now what'd you say?

All right, I'll tell ya.

You see, this doctor that

wrote the article said.

Well he said that

if a man.

Said, "if a man doesn't reach a climax

every time that he gets excited,

then he's liable to develop
kidney trouble and die young."

Well I always said you can't
believe everything you read.

Come on, Whitey!

Whitey, kiss her goodnight.

We gonna leave you.

C'mon, Whitey.

Clean up. You're all through.

Pull your pants up, Whitey.

We gonna rock and roll, baby?

Drink all your milk, Buster.

Makes your bones strong.

I declare I just can't believe
a whole week has gone by.

I do hope reverend Spears has
a good sermon this mornin'.

When you get home from school
tomorrow afternoon, Buster,

I want you to finish
plantin' that back field.

And you better save yourself some time

to chop some wood too.

Yes, sir.

Buster, that bus driver's
comin' to get you.

Do me a favor, Whitey,

and keep your eye out for
the principal, will ya?

Will do.

Well this is gonna be good.

Big son of a bitch is just
liable to kick Buster's ass.

Busters gonna get
exactly what he deserves.

I want some of your smart ass.

You do, huh?

Lemme finish my smoke first.

You get outta that goddamn truck now.

Okay, but let's just
get one thing straight.

Now suppose I kick your ass.

I mean just suppose.

Now I think you just might
go and tell the principal

and complain a little.

You don't worry about that

yeah, but I do.

See, I'm supposed to graduate this year.

Well I'm not gonna tell anybody.

Cross my heart and hope to die.

You're such a nice bus driver.

One other thing.

Is it gonna be a fair
fight or a dirty fight?

Ain't but one kinda fight.

Dirty, huh?

Yeah, now get
outta that goddamn truck!

Get him, Buster.

Come on, Buster.

Kick him in the ass.

That fella fights dirty.

He told me so.

- Get off me.
- That was a mistake.

Get away from me.

Well I do prefer a good clean fight.

Sure you do.

C'mon, Buster.

Let's get outta here.

Uh oh... c'mon, Buster.

Let's go.

The hell for?

- C'mon.
- Look over there.

The girls all know about Billie.

So what?

You're not goin' steady.

That don't make no difference.

Yeah, they see Billie smile at you,

they put two and two together.

Yeah, they know the
bitch is puttin' out.

They ain't stupid.

I have a hard enough time
gettin' dates as it is.

Yeah, me too.

You dudes worry too much.

Well I tell you one thing.

She's the best piece of ass I ever had.

She's the only piece
of ass you ever had.

Shut up, you guys.

C'mon, I'm gettin' horny
just talkin' about her.

Mmm, those tits.

Nice, huh?

- Mm-hmm.
- Ooh yeah.

Why don't you go with us sometime?

Yeah, then the gang
bang boys will ride again.

That's for sure.

Well you're talkin'
to the lone ranger here.

I ride alone, kemo sabe.

See you guys later.

- See you guys.
- Mm-hmm.

Boy, I hate tuna fish.

I love it.

Hell, one day without food

and you'd be over there
eatin' with the damn hogs.

Come on, Phil.

Let's get outta here.

Where's Margie?

She didn't come to school today.

I think her mother took her
over to the dentist in town.

What I'd like to do with my books.

My name's Buster.

What's yours?

Billie Jo.

Billie Jo?

That's a pretty name.

Listen,

how 'bout a date this Friday night?

Okay.

Pick you up about eight Friday?

I know where you live
'cause I pass by your house

and seen you waitin' on the school bus.

Okay, since there's no further business,

this meetin's adjourned.

That was short and sweet.

He's sure in a hurry.

- Where's Buster goin'?
- I don't know.

He just hauled ass.

Shit, we didn't even
assign him a project.

Oh, I guess you wanna see Billie Jo.

- Yes, ma'am I...
- Billie Jo!

And don't you forget old slim

is havin' a jamboree of all jamborees

at the cotton warehouse
out on 2nd loop road

on Friday, may 14th.

Yes, sir, pea pickers.

Bring the whole family

'cause Claude Casey and his
sagedusters'll be comin' in

to pick the briars outta them old guitars.

Admission is $1.00 per person

and children under 12 get in free.

Now me and the boys are gonna

One of my old favorites,
"south sea storm".

Run the battery down.

Want a beer?

No thank you.

Kinda chilly tonight.

Kinda nice chilly though.

How you doin' in school?

That bad, huh?

I'm doin' all right except for math.

It's just downright cold.

Ain't you cold?

C'mon, Rose.

C'm on, 0 I' bos s \

Get down there.

Shut up, Whitey.

You'll upset her.

I was just sayin' hello.

Well what'd she say?

She says, "you're
squeezin' my tits too hard."

Oh, horseshit.

Buster.

Dammit.

Ooh.

What happened?

Cow kicked over the
bucket and took a leak.

Kill this damn cow.

Wait 'til after supper.

Your ma's got the food on the table.

Yes, sir.

Come and get it.

Oh, I like to spend the night here.

Go to sleep.

Hey Buster, you like my hair black?

I mean maybe brown would be better.

Tell you somethin', Whitey.

I been thinkin' about dyin'
my hair black like yours.

Looks real good.

Now shut up and go to sleep.

Crap.

Can't get to sleep.

I didn't mean to keep you awake.

Oh, it's nothin' to do with you.

Just somethin' I feel.

Yeah, Buster.

I know you.

I know you like a book.

Somethin's been botherin' you lately.

Say, you're not mad at me, are ya?

No.

I get mad at you, you'll know it.

Just don't feel right.

What'd you say?

Nothin...

Nothin' at all.

You know, you can't
think about life, Whitey.

You just gotta live it.

Aw, you said it, skeebeau.

You know, I got me this philosophy.

I figure life is sort of
like a great big juicy steak

and you gotta eat it all and
don't leave nothin' to waste.

Hand me that pencil over
there on the table, will ya?

What for?

'Cause I wanna write
down your philosophy.

Why you always makin' fun of me?

It's 'cause I like you dude.

See you in the mornin'.

Yeah.

Yeah, see you in the mornin'.

You can come back anytime, Whitey.

Thank you, ma'am.

I sure enjoyed it,
especially your cookin'.

Oh my, bless your heart

come along now, Buster.

Get!

You're gonna be late for school.

Bye, mama.

Bye.

Hey Buster, let's
not go to school today.

Let's do somethin' crazy.

Oh I don't know, Whitey.

Don't think I oughta miss no school.

Oh.

Aw, what the hell?

One day ain't gonna hurt.

What do you wanna do?

1 got it.

Let's drive all the way to the coast.

I ain't never been to the beach.

You got any money?

Yeah, $4.00.

32 cents.

Here, how much I got?

Let's see.

$9.00.

$9.00 and some change.

Let's see, it's about 110 miles.

So that's 14 into 110.

That's 18 into 30.

I believe we can make it there and back

for about five, six bucks.

Well let's do it.

All right, I believe we
gonna have a hell of a time.

All right.

That must be where the lifeguard sits.

Look at that.

Look at that!

Shit yeah,
water's always attracted me.

Look at them birds.

Oh, I love the beach.

Shh, quiet.

Hey Buster, watch out for them kids.

I'll miss 'em a mile.

Say, let's go wadin'.

All right.

I'll race ya.

Wow.

Hey, what's that shit over there?

Jellyfish.

Jellyfish?

Woo.

Ugly little devils, aren't they?

Is it dead?

I think so.

There's lots of 'em washed up.

Those little things'll
sting the hell outta ya,

paralyze ya.

Sometimes they even kill ya.

Well why the hell
didn't you tell me that

before I touched it?

They can't sting you
from the back, dummy.

Here, I'll show you
where the stingers are.

You son of a bitch.

Get that away from me!

Where we goin' now?

I don't know.

Wanna go over and get somethin' to eat?

Ooh, wait a minute.

Wait a minute.

I believe I detect two
gorgeous babe-a-roos.

I heard a lot about them
girls down here at the beach.

Yeah, like what?

Well like they're livin'
here down at the beach

and they're partyin' all the time

and they'll screw any guy from outta town

because they won't tell their friends.

Plus there's just somethin' about them

being down here at the beach

that makes 'em Wilder than shit.

Hey.

You said gorgeous.

I didn't know.

Watch this.

Hey girls!

You wanna do it?

Lemme have that green hat
with the feather on it.

That's a Robin hood hat.

I know that.

I want my name on it too, lady.

What is your name?

Whitey.

W-h-i-t-e-y.

How come you don't want
your name on yours?

Not on a cowboy hat.

That'll be $3.00.

Can't get it 'til you pay for it.

You better pay the lady.

Thank you.

Rob from the rich and give to the poor.

Stick 'em up, lady.

Where's my opener?

Look in the pocket for me, will ya?

That's it.

Yes, sir.

I been known to crack a
cool one now and then.

Have to acquire a taste for this stuff.

Just hate it at first.

Hate it.

Then after a hot summer day, hard work.

Boy, ain't nothin' better.

Sure wish you'd say somethin'.

You don't have to.

My daddy's real quiet too.

Never talks.

Broke his back last year
and he never mentions it.

And when my brother was killed in the war,

wouldn't hardly talk about it at all.

He kinda reminds me of Gary Cooper.

You know who he is, don't ya?

I don't think so.

Ain't you ever been to the movies?

Okay, honey.

Chin up just a little
bit, little to your right.

All right, big smile.

Okay, next.

Okay, Mole.

No gum chewin'.

Big smile, son.

There we go.

Next.

Okay.

He's just fine.

Good.

Okay, big smile, all 32 pearlies.

There we go.

Fine.

Thank you, Margie.

Okay, move along.

Come ahead.

Okay, Sally honey.

Now chin up just a little bit.

Big smile.

There we go.

Thank you, ma'am.

Okay, move on.

All right, here we go.

Now look to your right just a little bit.

That's nice.

Now big smile and here we go.

Move along.

There we go.

Gotcha.

Okay, move on.

Did you get your picture taken yet?

Yeah, just now.

I don't know what time the bus leaves.

C'mon, I'll take you home.

Sure wish we got outta
school everyday at 12:00.

Hey Buster.

Buster.

Listen, I talked to the rest
of those guys about the game.

It's set for 1:00 tomorrow afternoon

- Okay.
- Hey Margie.

Hi.

Say Buster, could you pick me up?

Sure, how bout 12:30?

Righto.

See you later.

I thought you were gonna go

Oh, I am honey.

Just goin' later 'bout 6:00.

That is if it's all right with you.

I can't even ask a question anymore.

Hey honey, let's not fight anymore.

What you wanna to do tonight?

You mean I have a choice?

Sure.

Anything you wanna do
is all right with me.

Anything?

Don't you ever think of anything else?

Sure, food.

Margie, whatcha doin'?

I'm just fixin' Buster a sandwich, mama.

Oh, hello Buster.

Don't talk so loud you'll
wake your daddy up.

Okay.

Anyway, I've asked Sally
to be my maid of honor

if that's all right with you.

Sure. That's all right, honey.

Think I'm gonna ask
Whitey to be my best man.

Okay.

I'm so excited.

I can't wait "til June.

You know, mom and daddy
really like you a lot.

Well I'm glad.

I'm full.

Guess I wasn't as hungry as I thought.

Well.

Got chores in the morning.

Guess I better go.

Put it right there, Buster.

All right, Buster. Put it across.

Let's go.

- Time out!
- Right there, Buster.

Time out?

- What is this?
- What is this?

They're ahead.

But I really think we got 'em worried now.

Yeah, what's the score now?

23 nothin'.

You just hang in there, big fella.

Hang in there.

That's good.

Y'all hurry up out there.

C'mon.

Let's do it, Buster!

Put it anywhere, Buster.

Anywhere at all.

I'll knock it clean
outta the damn pasture.

C'mon.

C'mon, knock it outta the field.

C'mon, let's go.

- C'mon.
- All right.

Hello knothead

that ain't funny.

I think he meant to hit me.

Nah, I know Buster.

He's just tryin� to scare you.

Hey. C'mon, I got some medicine for ya.

- Yeah?
- Yeah.

Yeah?

Whitey.

Let's see where they're goin'.

C'mon.

Where do you guys think you're goin#?

- Nowhere.
- Aw, come on.

The more the merrier.

C'mon.

Let's go, c'mon.

Hey, what's this stuff?

It's stump hole.

- Aw, yeah?
- Yeah, it's stump hole.

Get down, get down.

C'mon, man.

Lemme try, c'mon.

He's sick.

I think Phil stopped breathin'.

Say somethin', say somethin'.

Help me!

That Phil's gettin' to be a real man.

Put your head down 'tween your legs.

C'mon, c'mon.

I'm okay now.

I feel better already.

Yee-haw, let's go get Billie.

- Woo!
- C'mon.

I know it ain't funny.

But when that softball
hit him in the head,

he looked like he was out
cold standin� on his feet.

All I meant to do was
make him hit the dirt.

I got a smile out you anyway.

Your hair sure looks pretty tonight.

Wanna try some?

All right.

Eww.

- Eww.
- Don't like it, huh?

Tastes like soap.

Here, got that just for you.

One of these days you're
gonna fall out the damn truck.

- Here he comes.
- Mole.

C'mon, Mole.

Hey, where's the bitch?

She wasn't there.

Not again.

You're lyin'.

You just turned chickenshit.

No, I swear.

That old witch just screamed
out, "she ain't here."

Get in the car.

This pisses me off.

Hey, you wanna go shoot a game of pool?

Can you drive?

Does a wild bear shit in the woods?

Must be after 12.

Sunday mornin' already.

How come I never see you in church?

- Goodnight, Billie.
- Goodnight.

You wanna go to church with me tomorrow?

Yes.

I'll pick you up at 10:30.

It's Buster.

I wonder what he's doin'
here this time of night.

Oh my, I hope nothin's
happened to his grandmother.

Buster, is that you?

Yes, ma'am. It's me.

Are you all right?

Has anything happened?

Oh no, ma'am.

C'mon in, c'mon in.

I'll wait out here.

I'm sorry to wake you up, ma'am.

But I need to talk to Margie.

It's very important.

Oh.

All right.

I'll go get her.

Come on in.

No, ma'am.

I'll wait out here if it's all right.

Okay, I'll go get her.

What happened?

Is your grandmother all right?

Sit down here. I wanna talk to you.

First of all, everybody's okay.

I mean there's nobody hurt or nothin'.

I just came here to talk about you and me.

If you're drunk...

Margie, I ain't drunk.

I came here to talk about us.

It's 1:00 in the mornin', Buster.

My parents are gonna ask
me what you came here for.

What am I supposed to say, you
came here to talk about us?

No, I can do better than that, Margie.

You and I are through.

I'm breakin' up with you.

Honey, that's why I come out here.

I never wanna see you
again as long as I live!

Why don't you let me explain?

Get outta here!

Just get outta here!

Margie, what happened?

What happened, baby?

Well I couldn't say anything
before, but I sure can now.

Margie, he's a crude person.

He's the kinda man who
would beat up his wife.

I'm glad that you broke up with him.

Yes, well I guess it's a
good thing I found out in time.

Look!

Mornin', reverend.

Glad to have you in church today.

I don't believe it.

Reverend Spears,

I'd like you to meet
Ms. Billie Jo Truluck.

Certainly a pleasure
to meet you Ms. Truluck.

Welcome to our church.

Are you new here?

Reverend,

Billie's folks aren't churchgoers.

Well Billie here's gonna
become a regular member,

that is if she likes your preachin'.

Oh.

Well it's time to go in now.

I'll see you folks after church

and welcome to the house of the lord.

Are you ready?

Fireball Lane's death ride.

Can you take it?

Let's go.

Boy, girl.

If I ever get in a fight,
I sure want you on my side.

- You all right?
- Yeah.

Mama, what y'all doin' up?

Me and your
mama wanna talk to you, son.

Yes, sir.

Now Mr. and Mrs. Hooks
was over the other night.

Oh, I knew it.

Don't interrupt me, son.

I'm sorry.

They said you was over
at their house last night

at 1:00 in the mornin' drunk.

Well that ain't true.

Then you
started yellin' at Margie.

Now son,

that hurt me and you mama real bad.

Daddy, you and mama always
told me that marriage was

well just to make real sure

you love the one you're gonna marry.

And daddy, I don't love Margie.

I guess I thought I did
all this time, but I don't.

And I had to tell her that last night.

All right.

But now what about church this mornin'?

Me and your mama hear this girl you took,

well she's a bad girl in your school.

Don't say that unless you know.

We don't mean to say
anything bad about her, Buster.

But girls like that need mental help.

No, mama. You're wrong!

Mama, she can't help it 'cause
she was raised by two people

who I do think need help.

Not only that, but
there's nobody around here

that have anything to do with her.

She was just tryin' the only way she knew

to have somebody like her.

Do you love her?

I don't know, daddy.

All right, son.

You do whatever you think is right.

Let's go to bed, babe.

Nice shot.

I never saw anyone play so bad, Smitty.

Just a bad night.

Plus you shot a pretty fair game yourself.

C'mon, I'll buy you a beer.

Nah, I think I'll shoot another game.

Thank you anyway.

Come on, Whitey. The beer's on me.

I still got one, Buster.

# lightnin' bar #

# some people value fortune and fame #

# care about 'em none #

# just wanna drink my sweet red wine #

what the hell's the matter with you?

I paid my bill.

# have my good time fun #

# I don't need no diamond ring #

# I don't need no #

I just don't like what you
did to miss Hooks' little girl.

# just wanna drink my sweet red wine #

# down in the lightnin' bar #

Hey,

before you say anything else, old man.

# don't cry for me #

Think real hard.

# place my livin',
lovin', laughin' bones

# in a jar of alcohol

are you hungry yet?

No.

I'm not hungry-hungry, but I'm hungry.

I guess I can wait 'til later though.

Sure feels like summer, don't it?

Even smells like it.

Boy, a day like today makes me restless.

Makes you wanna do somethin', ya know?

Let's go swimmin'.

We're gonna freeze.

C'mon.

Get ahold of it here.

Hang on.

'Kay, set yourself.

'Kay, here we go.

All over?

Yeah.

That was great.

Hey, look in the side pocket
there and gimme my knife.

Goodbye.

I been gettin' some awful
weird stations lately.

That speaker sounds good though, don't it?

Buster?

What's that, a present?

Boy, I love presents.

Oh, look at that.

Well honey, that's really somethin'.

I made it just for you.

Did it take you long?

No.

That's nice.

That's real nice

c'mere, girl.

Hey, pick you up at 4:30 in the mornin'.

Don't you go to sleep, hear?

Be right on time, okay?

- Okay.
- Okay.

Oh, I been sick
before, but this is the worst.

I think he'll live.

Want some?

It's good for you.

Oh thank you, honey.

Oh misery.

Honey, read me a little
more of that marvel comic.

"Mr. Mars, owner of station whiz enters.

"You, you killed the watchman.'

another intruder.

Help.'

'stop your squealin'.'

in his nearby office Billy
batson has been workin' late.

"That sounded like Mr. Mars.

Shazam!"

By pronouncin' the word shazam,

Billy batson calls down the
magic lightnin' and thunder

that change him to mighty captain marvel.

Holy moly, am I too late?

Hey!

Here, honey. They're for you.

C'mon, let's go on the steps and open 'em.

Read the card first.

Thank you.

This here's a three-part gift.

After you get these two
open, there's a third one.

It's so purty.

Open this one.

It goes with it.

Mama told me what sizes to buy.

But if they don't fit,

we can take 'em back tomorrow afternoon

'cause the third part of
the gift is tomorrow night.

We're goin' to the slim mims jamboree.

And now ladies and gentlemen,

Mr. Slim Mims.

All right!

Glad to be here.

Say you know,

that was a wonderful number.

Thank you so much.

Glad to have so many of you here tonight.

It's a financial pleasure.

You know what I seen tonight
when I came in outside?

There was a car parked
right at the entrance

and there was a girl and
a boy in the back seat

and they were playin' checkers.

I know they were playing checkers

because the girl said somethin' about,

"if you make another move like
that, I'm gonna crown ya."

I went home to see ma the other day

and she was wantin' to fix dinner.

Of course I had to go down to the pond

and get a bucket of water.

I run down to the pond
to get a bucket of water.

Just as I reach down to get the water,

a great big alligator was in that pond.

I throwed the bucket down,
run back up to the house

and ma says, "where's the water?"

I said, "it's in the pond.�
she says, "how come?"

I says "ma, there's an
alligator in that pond.

She says, "aw, go on down
there and get the water.

You probably scared
him bad as he did you."

I said, "ma, if I scared
him bad as he did me,

that water ain't fit to drink."

Aw, thank you.

But I know you came
tonight to hear that boy

that really sings some pretty songs.

In fact, he's wrote many of 'em.

And tonight, he's gonna do
one of his newer ones for ya.

Here's Claude Casey and the
sagedusters doin' for ya

their newest number "long lonesome road".

Let's give 'em a hand!

Wanna dance, Billie?

I can't.

Sure, you can.

C'mon, I'll show you.

# Road to Tampa #

just make a box.

One,

two,

three,

four.

One,

two,

three,

four.

# You like it when I cry #

# so I'm traveling #

# this lonesome road unknown #

# it'salong #

# lonesome road to Tampa #

# after #

# your love's proved untrue #

# my heart lies broken #

# when you said you didn't love me #

# so I'm traveling #

# this lonesome road so blue #

C'mon, honey. Let's go get some air.

I'll take two please.

There you go.

Thank you, ma'am.

There she is.

Go after her, buddy.

- Go, go!
- Get 'er, Warren.

C'mon, here we go.

- Woo! C'mon, Billie!
- Billie!

Get her, Mole!

Get her, Mole.

Yeah, get her.

Okay, bitch. We've played long enough.

I ain't Buster.

Don't hurt her, Warren.

Goddamn bitch!

All right, take it easy!

Don't worry.

She's all right.

She's just out cold.

She ain't here.

'Kay, thank you, ma'am.

He's chokin' her!

Mole, Mole!

Get him.

Get off.

Come on.

Oh my god, I think she's dead.

Shut up!

Shut up!

Shut up!

All right, listen to me and
listen close, all of you.

It was an accident.

Nobody meant to do it.

Probably won't find her for a couple days.

They'll figure it was one
of them hook man killin's.

Smitty, you get a tree limb
and brush away all the tracks.

It's rainin' hard.

That's good.

I'll drop each of you off at home.

Mole, fix your face yourself.

Think of something later
that coulda happened to ya.

We'll meet at Jake's in half an hour.

Let's go.

The hell is everybody?

Hey, I asked you a question.

I told you I ain't seen 'em, Buster.

Billie?

Billie?

Billie?

Billie?

Billie?

Billie!

Oh no!

No!

Cut it out Jake.

# It'salong #

# lonesome road to Tampa #

# when you #

# are travelin' #

# all alone #

# you cheated #

looks like you got caught
out in the rain, Buster.

# you lie #

# you laugh when I cry #

# so I'm traveling #

# this lonesome road unknown #

# it'salong #

# longsome road to Tampa #

C'mon, Buster.

I'll shoot you a game?

And I got the winner.

Well looks like we
got a game goin' here, boys.

Yeah.

# heartbroken #

# when you said you didn't love me #

you wanna break 'em, Buster?

# this lonesome road so blue #

# it'salong #

Leave before he kills us all!

Shit!

The hell's goin' on down there?

Buster!

What the hell's goin' on down here?

Oh my god.

Oh my god.

Buster?

What's that?

That is neeson Moore
building another bed

in that cell the Lane boy was in.

He sure tore up that cell.

I'll tell ya somethin'.

If I was in his shoes,
I don't know what I'd do

if somebody raped and
killed my girlfriend.

Yeah.

Why didn't you let him out yesterday?

Least so he could go
to the girl's funeral.

Her parents didn't even go.

Wasn't anybody there
but Mr. and Mrs. Lane and the preacher.

I couldn't do that, son,
under any circumstances.

Two boys dead and bail
wasn't set 'til this mornin...

He sure tore outta here.

Didn't even stop and talk to his daddy.

Sheriff's department.

Yes, ma'am.

I see.

We'll check it out.

That's funny, somebody dug up

all of Mrs. Pendoris' flowerbeds.

- Mrs. Pendoris?
- Well you know her.

She owns the nursery.

Sheriff's department.

What's your address, Mrs. Megs?

I see.

Yes, ma'am.

We'll check it out.

Somebody tore up Mrs.
Megs whole front yard.
