Helen, Ned tore up real bad.

Yeah.

Money's with 'em too.

I guess we have to start all over.

What do you think?

They'll be waiting for us to pull another job.

What else is there?

We're busted.

We do like any hill rat does.

You ain't gonna have much liver left,

He makes love to you when you're away from here, doesn't he?

I know you're not Preacher's woman.

I see the way you hurt when Chuck touches me.

I love him.

Do you hate me for that?

No.

You shouldn't.

You're his wife and he loves you.

We were kids here together.

I've loved him since I can remember.

You know, love changes.

It's different now.

Like him.

Maybe you've changed too.

I have.

Everything's changing.

It's Seth.

[Seth] Chuck.

The Feds got 300 men out looking for you right now.

Here?

Yeah, they're combing the hills over 'round Tillet.

What have you heard?

They think us hill folks have been hiding Chuck.

They're coming down mighty hard on all of us.

A couple of barns been fired and a fence torn down.

I even heard that somebody got shot

because they didn't stop fast enough for the roadblock.

I reckon they're taking the hate for you out on us.

Those bastards.

We're going north in the morning.

That's stupid!

Why should we?

People here have been hurt enough.

Losing farms, kids going hungry.

All of them could've used the reward on our heads,

but none of 'em said a word.

Because they don't know right where we are.

They know, Betty.

You can't keep any secrets in this county.

What'll we do for running money?

We're down to our last chip.

We'll get some in the morning, before we go.

Take care until I get back, okay?

You think you should come back.

What are you talking about?

What I said about taking you and the boy still holds.

We just need cash.

We need peace.

Time and quiet.

Oh, Chuck.

We need to sleep with our eyes closed and no more guns.

We need to--

Shh.

[car horn honking]

We'll find quiet.

I know you love me.

We'll get to it, I promise.

I love you.

How you today, boys?

Well, now, howdy, Chuck, Preacher.

What y'all doin' in town?

We're gonna rob the bank.

I'll be damned.

About time you hit this one.

[background conversations]

Don't mean to butt in like this, only we're in kind of a hurry.

[woman] No, no.

Jess, now, no one's gonna get hurt.

Just take good care of us, okay?

Fill it up, Jess.

Those big bills first.

We appreciate it.

What was you doin' in there, Preacher, passin' the plate?

Yes, sir.

[chuckles]

[Charles] Hey, Pete.

You tell the law that's lookin' for us,

they can find us up north.

[bangs car door]

[engine revving]

[steam hissing]

The water pump's blown.

You know that garage outside of Malverne?

Ogee's?

Yeah-- if we take it easy I think we can make it.

Police will be swarming all over the place.

Can't walk all the way up north.

We need the car, let's go.

[kids playing]

[steam hissing]

Howdy, Ogee.

Chuck.

Chuck Floyd.

Hello, Chuck.

How ya doin'?

Fine.

Friend of mine, Betty.

Hello, Betty.

You know Preacher.

Hi, Preacher,

[Preacher] Ogee.

Last time I saw you there weren't so many.

How's the Missus?

She's gone.

What's wrong with this thing?

[kids playing]

Water pump, can you fix it?

Yeah.

I'll have to go into Malverne for a new one.

It'll cost you 50 bucks.

50?

Well, pump Ogee.

50's all right, but we need it in a hurry, okay?

[Ogee] It won't take long.

And if y'all are hungry, there's some food in the house here.

Ogee.

I know things have been kind of rough on you.

They're offering a mighty big reward on our heads--

Chuck.

I need money bad enough to gyp you on the car,

but not enough to do that.

You've got my word.

[tires squealing]

Maybe we better go after him.

We do as we're told.

We get to a phone and tell 'em

we think we made contact with Floyd.

[branch creaking]

[car approaching]

[tires skidding]

You're gonna have to get out of here, right now.

Why, what is it?

The Feds.

They're comin' down the road,

stoppin' and searchin' every building they get to,

and they'll be here pretty soon.

What's your truck worth?

200, for real.

Here's four.

Thanks for the warning.

I'm grateful.

Then do something for me.

Can you hide Betty?

There's a place back in the hills where she'll be safe.

You've got to be kidding!

I can't stay here, I won't!

Look, you've got the truck,

come on, let's go like we planned.

Betty.

We'll never make it.

Take this.

When they're gone, use it to get north.

Forget it.

I stick with you.

It's no good anymore.

Besides, you won't like where I'm going.

Meaning what?

Meaning I'm going back home.

Oh, but you're crazy.

The place is crawling with cops by now.

There's cops everywhere.

Listen, I don't just blow away like yesterday's paper.

I'm going home.

It's over.

You simple-minded fool, you're still a hick!

You go back to your lousy farmers,

and I hope they find you and they kill you!

What about you, partner?

It's my home too.

[engine clanking]

[tires skidding, gunshots]

This ought to do until night.

What then?

Run a block, I guess.

Better sleep 'til dark.

Won't have much chance after.

No, you go ahead.

Being asleep gives me bad dreams.

I'll just stay up with my sick friend here.

If we've got any shooting to do,

that ain't gonna help your aim any.

[engine clanking]

Spotted him again down by Ralston.

Let's wait for the Feds on up the road.

If that's him, I don't want to be this close when he wakes up.

Earl...

We've got a chance to take Pretty Boy Floyd

all by ourselves.

Well, we'd be in every newspaper in the country.

I don't want to be in any newspaper.

If you want your job, follow me.

Yeah, I'm sure.

I told the sheriff we should have waited for you.

If we had, it'd all be over now.

It'll be over, soon enough.

[driver] Mr. Floyd, would you mind

doing me a real, great favor?

Well, you know I'm gonna be

telling everybody all about this.

Well, unless I can prove it,

I think they'll just laugh at me,

say I'd been out in the sun too long, or something.

What I'm wondering is, would you mind signing something for me?

Stop this thing.

You gonna run that block?

Get out of here.

Get out of here!
