The first baby didn't make it.

No, you're... you're right. Y-Your sister didn't make it.

How come?

Well...

Your mom, she had some complications.

How do you know about this stuff, anyway?

Uncle Mike told me.

- Uncle Mike. - Uncle Mike.

Yeah, well, listen, y-your mom's gonna be fine,

and the baby's gonna be fine this time.

Did you ever tell your mom you know about this stuff?

- No. - Oh, so maybe

it's our little secret.

That okay with you?

You shouldn't keep secrets, though.

I know, but every now and then,

it's okay to have a secret.

Like the fact that I let you sit up front.

Oh, yeah.

And yeah, sometimes we're gonna get some candy on the weekdays.

- That's a good secret, too. - Oh, yup. I love that secret.

- Yeah. - Chocolate.

Chocolate secrets are good secrets.

Yeah.

It's gonna be okay.

Promise.

You gonna be a good boy?

You better hurry. She's waiting for you.

Yeah. I know.

I didn't say I was robbing you.

S-sir, my wife is in the hospital.

She's about to give birth.

Drive.

Exit the hospital and then go right towards the strip.

I'm your family emergency now.

Drive.

Drive!

Where do you want me to go?

Hey, I-I really need to get back to the hospital...

Turn here. Here.

Listen, I just want to say that whatever it is that you want,

it's yours. I-I mean it.

Just want you to understand...

Now you're gonna talk about your family.

- What? - You're gonna dive into

the bit about your family,

about how much you love them.

with all your heart and all your goddamn soul.

Yeah, I was.

Well, isn't that a bit of a cliché?

You want me to take it?

Before the interruption,

you were about to start up with your phony family speech.

About how if I were to shoot you

through your stupid little earlobe right now,

the bullet would, metaphorically speaking,

tear through your wife and son as well.

Where are we going?

What do you want?

Take this next exit.

Pull over.

Still got a few miles to go before we sleep.

Great night.

Great fucking night.

You're gonna have to watch the speeding

when you get back up on the highway.

The adrenaline.

You know, back in South Boston,

I once got three speeding tickets in one month.

Want to know why?

Stress.

Fuck.

$2,000 boots.

You just watch the speed limit, obey the traffic signals...

we'll be alright.

Sup?

Well, hi.

I don't blame you.

Might be your one and only shot.

But maybe I was following you.

Maybe I know where you live.

So you run for it.

Now you've involved your family, too.

Just relax, okay?

I'm getting in the car.

It's kind of impersonal,

talking to the back of your fucking skull.

Can you look at the road, please, when you're driving?

Where are you from, anyways?

- Tucson. - Have you ever been to Boston?

Yeah. I've been there once. Years ago.

Not for nothing, but you remind me

of this guy I used to know in Boston.

And this guy used to drink a bottle of Glenlivet every night.

Just kill the whole thing right before bed.

Well, I don't drink.

Anymore?

I haven't had a drink in years.

Phony. It's phony.

And that one time you were in Boston,

was it business or pleasure?

It was business.

And what business are you in?

I work for a shipping company.

Mostly warehouse work.

And you're sure that's the only time you've been to Boston?

Yeah.

You stopped drinking... when?

15 years ago?

I don't remember, but...

Yeah, something like that.

See, that's funny.

You making an error like that this early in the evening?

That's really not like you.

What?

Is it okay if I ask a question?

Why wouldn't it be okay?

How long is this gonna take?

When will I be back home?

Why would you assume you'll ever go home again?

- What? - Did you not just hear me?

Yeah, I...

Alright. This whole trip won't take more than an hour.

We're going to Boulder City.

Okay. I can do that.

Oh, thank you.

Well, that's very thoughtful of you.

My mother, she's dying of cancer...

the lung variety.

She's a devout Catholic,

- so we gotta do last rites... - Your mother's at the hospital?

Don't interrupt me.

That's rude, you interrupting me.

Don't.

My mom was also religious.

It didn't stop her from marrying my dad,

who liked to get drunk and beat the living shit out of her.

Just my opinion...

that plea for sympathy is very beneath you.

So anyway, back to my story.

You take me to the hospital, the Boulder City Hospital...

Don't you have a car?

Fucking prick.

W-What is this, "SD love?"

W-What are you, a teenager?

My son did that. It's our initials,

me and my wife.

Oh, isn't that sweet?

- You want me to take it, "D?" - Yeah.

David, where are you? It's happening now.

I'm sorry, babe. I-I'm trying. I'm almost there.

Great. Now the little...

You said you were here!

Why are you late with this? You're never late.

- I love you so much, baby. - Doctor, it's normal.

I'm almost there.

Oh, you said you'll be here!

I will. I'm doing everything I can.

Something's wrong.

It's wrong.

What is that? Who's with you?

Nobody, honey, it's... the window open.

- Okay. - Mrs. Chamberlain,

I need you to put the phone down.

Doctor, why is it taking so long?

When we lost our first, it also took so long.

Mom, look at me.

Tell him, honey. David, tell him what happened.

Where the fuck are we going?!

For the devil may start to envy those

who suffer too deeply

and throw them out into Heaven.

So when we get to the Boulder City,

I drop you off, right?

I drop you off, and...

you let me go.

I let you go.

Okay.

Well, now you've fucking gone and done it.

Should I stop?

Would you calm down?

I'm stopping?

I'm stopping?

Turn here.

As I said, all I need is for you to take me to my mother,

so there's no reason for anything horrible

to befall anyone tonight.

But if you so much as look at this cop weird,

I will shoot you so fast in the back of your goddamn skull,

cranial matter will splatter all over this cop's pressed uniform,

and it will be disgusting.

Not a good time.

License and registration, please.

Right. One second.

M-May I ask why we're we being pulled over?

Sure, you can ask. License and registration.

Asking permission to ask the question.

Isn't that the same as asking the question?

You were going 11 over the speed limit.

Well, wait, w-what about the, uh...

what do you call it? The flow, right?

The flow of traffic?

License and registration. I'm not asking again.

Well, if all the other cars are going ten miles over,

you got to do the same, right?

To ensure you don't cause a traffic hazard.

- One second. U-Uh, my license... - Just shush.

I'm just asking a question. What's wrong with that?

Sir, one more question, and you're gonna have some trouble.

Oh, no, not trouble.

Please, Mr. Big Policeman, anything but trouble.

- No, no, w-wait, wait. - It's okay. I just...

But isn't that a thing, though?

The flow. Isn't that a real thing?

Sir. Step out of the car.

Out of the car.

Out of the car. Are you fucking crazy?

All I did was ask a simple question,

and now this big cock cop is telling me

to get out of the car.

You're under arrest.

Sir, step out of the vehicle now.

- Just do what he says, okay? - No!

No, he's too rude. He's way too fucking rude.

- Now, out! - I'm not gonna reward

- that type of behavior. - Out of the vehicle now!

Or what? Really?!

You're gonna shoot me, man?

For not getting out of the car,

you're gonna shoot me in front of my friend here?

- We're not friends. - Out of the fucking car.

Because this Officer Cock.

Control 1-Nora-61.

- Get behind me, Satan. - What?

Uh...

I told you not to speed.

I even warned you once... no, twice.

I warned you about the speed, and you wouldn't listen.

- You warned me. - I told you a couple of times.

You've warned... You warned me not to speed.

Why are you being such a cock about it?

- Jesus Christ! - What's past is past,

I always say, Although others say past

is prologue, which is really just saying

the same thing from a different perspective.

But point is, move on here.

Go back to Galleria.

He was just doing his job.

He was an authoritarian little prick.

He was just a guy doing his job.

You just killed him.

Would you just shut up and drive?

He could have had a family. A wife and kids.

- Shut up and drive! - You could have just destroyed

- a whole fucking family! - I destroyed a family.

I destroyed a family!

I did!

Drive!

No.

The next one goes through your face.

[Ringing stops

Hello.

Oh, hi.

No, no, he's on the other line right now.

Who, me? Uh...

I work at the gift shop at the hospital.

Yeah. No, he had to take a call from the warehouse,

so he's using my land line. Better reception.

But I am glad you called,

because he wanted me to ask you what room number you're in.

Okay. Uh-huh. I'm sorry to hear that.

That does sound painful.

If it's any consolation,

when my wife was pregnant and delivering,

there was so much pressure on her bladder...

I mean, it was bitchin'.

It was a golden shower explosion cascading

Hey, come on.

Screw you too, lady.

Huh? You like that?

What do you think?

She's fine.

You think she's the first woman ever to go into labor?

She had complications in the past.

Please, I need to be there.

Drive!

Wow! David Chamberlain, you stud muffin.

I wonder how many blue collar losers know how to do that?

Well, she sounded real nice.

I think she was a bit confused.

Suspicious even, but nice.

She never told you the room number?

She wanted to know why you weren't at the hospital yet.

She did seem very concerned about that.

- You don't even know the floor. - Oh, wow.

A new baby.

Gosh, a brand new baby. How exciting.

I mean, are you happy? Objectively speaking,

would you say you and your wife have a happy marriage?

- Happy? - Yeah.

Objectively?

Yeah, we're happy.

Sometimes we feel like we're the only happy people we know.

Like we got this secret.

Well, I've never been happy.

You know why?

Sinuses.

Ever since I was a small child, I've had a stuffy nose,

and even at the tender age of two years old,

I knew the cause of my stuffy nose.

I could see it in my dreams.

And the cause was the Mucus Man.

And the Mucus Man was a skinny guy in a suit

and tie with a bald head

and a briefcase full of boogers.

And I... I could see him in my mind's eye going up,

up, up in an elevator, briefcase in hand,

and he glided across the floor,

almost like a like a snail's trail.

And he got to my bed, and he opened the briefcase,

and he scooped out a handful of boogers,

and he sprinkled them into my nose.

Alright, now listen.

There's a certain man... a very, very important man...

who is waiting for our arrival.

Well, rather not for us as much as you.

He's waiting for you. His associates

were the ones who found you in the first place.

They found the wrong guy.

Now, the initial plan was to drive you all the way to Boston,

but this old fucking Mickey was too antsy.

He couldn't wait. He was like a child on Christmas Eve.

So he flew out tonight to this private airstrip

in Boulder City, and that's where we're going.

I hope that answers some of your questions.

No substitutions. Can you believe this shit?

Does that look right to you?

Hey, you're not listening to me.

Okay, I'm gonna tell you a story, and you better listen.

Once upon a time, many, many years ago,

there was a bookkeeper from Brooklyn

who was living in South Boston,

and the bookkeeper was working for a hard-drinking Catholic

named Jacob Sullivan.

Who's waiting for me?

Yeah.

So the bookkeeper meets a nice Bostonian gal,

falls in love, gets married, has a baby.

Cute little girl.

Okay, when this waitress asks you what happened to your face,

I want you to tell her you fell down the stairs.

- You want me to say... - "I fell down the stairs."

Say it. Try it out. "I fell down the stairs."

- I fell down the stairs. - That's right.

You fell down the stairs, you stupid, clumsy shit.

- I fell down the stairs. - He fell down the stairs.

He fell down the stairs, but then what happened to you?

I was at the bottom of the stairs when he fell.

Well, good evening, then. Or is it morning?

I'm never sure what to say during this witching hour.

Huh.

- Coffee, black. - And for you?

- What? - For you?

Uh, the same.

Uh, just so you know, the special today

or tonight...

The special this morning is open-faced tuna melts.

That's gonna be two pieces of rye mayonnaise, tuna,

a slice of tomato in each, and melted mozzarella on top.

Oh, uh, what happens if I want cheddar instead?

Owner's rules. Who happens to be the cook.

Who happens to be back in the kitchen right now.

No shit? So he is serious about this

"no substitutions" business. That's a real thing.

Mm-hm. But, uh, maybe I'll slice you

a block of cheddar under the table.

That's very sweet of you.

I'll go get those coffees.

Alright, back to our story.

So what happens is this.

The bookkeeper's 9 to 5 back then was doing the books

for one of Sullivan's associates.

But the associate gets a little too fucking smart

and starts skimming money on the side.

So when Jacob Sullivan finds out,

he tells the bookkeeper to invite the associate over

because two of them were good friends.

So the bookkeeper's wife and daughter visit her mother

and the associate comes over.

They have some drinks, have some cigars,

and once he's good and sloshed,

a few of Sullivan's guys pay a little visit.

One of them puts a .45 to the back of his skull,

pulls the trigger. And the same thing

is gonna happen to you when we get to Boulder City.

Hi. Okay.

Open-faced tuna melt for me. Swap the mozzarella for cheddar,

if you can slip that past your goddamn creep of a boss.

For you?

Nothing.

No, order something.

I'm not hungry.

I want you to order something.

I'm not hungry.

What do you mean you're not hungry?

I mean, I'm not hungry.

Then get something for the road?

- I'm not hungry! - Order something, you stupid fuck!

Tuna melt.

You want cheddar on that or mozzarella?

- What? - Cheddar or mozzarella?

Cheddar or mozzarella? You gotta pick one.

Cheddar.

Okay. I've been thinking about what you've given me so far...

this pathetic and phony biography of yours,

designed to garner sympathy.

In my experience, most people tend to think having a family

makes them more sympathetic.

Before anyone takes a bullet to the head,

they're always prattling on

about their fucking daughter this,

their fucking son that.

But the fact that you...

you would do that

strikes me as, um...

tone deaf.

Usually, I wait for the sun to go down before I start drinking,

but today, I've been drinking all day.

Ask me why.

Ask me why. I've been drinking all day.

Ask me.

You know, I do think about the way your life has gone,

how happy you are.

How you've got the secret fucking happiness.

New wife, new son, eternal goddamn love.

Please. Please.

Who do you think I am?

You're the witching hour.

The waitress, she mentioned that earlier.

Do you know what that is? It's European folklore

noting a particular time of night

when all the supernatural creatures

- slither out and run amok. - I don't...

I always liked it. I liked the idea of crazy...

- I have no idea... - Do not fucking interrupt me!

God damn it! I told you that in the car!

You're always running off at the mouth!

You got a motor mouth!

There's a motor boat stuck in your mouth!

Just shut up!

Sit the fuck back down!

I'm watching you. Okay?

One move, I'm gonna shoot you. Do you understand?

Yeah.

♪ Don't go away, stay here ♪

Okay. Give me your cell phones.

Now, if it's not too much trouble,

I would appreciate if you would stand behind

the counter where I can see you.

And I don't need to go into the whole spiel

as to what this gun does to the face if you try anything smart.

Right? Okay. How much longer do we have on those tuna melts?

- Um, just a few minutes. - Okay.

I want them done in five minutes. Come on.

Actually, no. Four minutes.

And we want cheddar on them. You got that? Cheddar.

Nobody puts mozzarella on a tuna melt.

Let's just go and leave everyone else out of this.

I want you to tell me the truth, the whole truth,

nothing but the truth, so help you God,

this very minute, right now.

If you don't tell me the truth,

I am gonna kill your little waitress friend,

I am gonna kill Mr. Happy Trucker over there,

and anyone else unfortunate enough

Magic Rabbit Foot says go. Tick, tick, tick, tick.

- The truth? - Yes, the truth.

The truth is, I-I have no idea what you're talking about!

No, no, no, no, no, no. Don't do this.

This is where the game gets good!

Don't ruin it.

Hey, I-I never got your name.

Oh.

Let's just get out of here, just you and me.

Oh, you sound kind of cool there.

Oh, my God. So cool.

Almost like you've had a gun on you before.

Well, let's just make sure everything's okay.

- Honey. I'm... - ...Car's extended warranty.

Since we have not gotten a response,

we are giving you a final courtesy call.

She's with the doctors, probably.

Yeah, yeah, sure, sure. Yeah, yeah, sure. Probably.

But then again, maybe not. Maybe something did happen.

People always say don't assume the worst. Why?

Sometimes, the worst is exactly what you should assume.

Oh, shit. Oh, shit.

It's getting good.

You know, the waitress is gonna be back any second.

Tuna melts cook fast. You just throw everything

under the heat lamp. So I'm gonna ask you

one final time... the truth.

I'm telling you, you got me confused...

- You're telling me... - Yeah, I'm trying to.

Stop the phony. Stop the phony. Tick, tick.

- I don't know what to tell you. - The truth! The truth!

That's it. Just the truth. Tick, tick, tick.

You think I'm... I'm someone that I'm not.

And why, may I ask, would you think that I think

you're someone you're actually not?

- Tick, tick, tick, tick, tick? - What?

Did you not just fucking hear me right then?

- Yeah, I did. - Well, then would you do me

a favor and would you please stop saying "what?"

when it's absolutely crystal fucking clear what I just said?

Tick, tick, tick, tick, tick. Okay. You know what?

You should prepare yourself, mindset-wise.

That way, it won't be such a shock when it happens.

Assume the worst is what I mean.

Just tell me what you want me to say.

- Just tell me. - Oh, my God.

You're not changing your tactics.

Not even a little. It's fucking mental.

- You're awesome, buddy! - I'm not who you think I am!

I never even told you who I think you are!

So how could you know you're not who I think you are?!

- Tick, tick, tick, tick! - I'll say whatever you want.

Okay. You know what? Time's up.

There's a man. He's... He's... He's killing people.

He shot people.

Sir, where are you located?

Well, it's a... It's a... it's a diner.

Roadhouse Diner.

I heard you, sir. Be patient.

We will get to you.

James!

James!

Great night. Great fucking night.

I've been watching for a while now, James.

Watching and waiting.

You, the wife,

the little boy.

I need you to wake up now.

Time for you to wake up, asshole!

Gotta wake... up!

You know who I am.

You know where I've been.

Pick up the phone, James!

I know you'll loop back around.

I heard the phone ringing.

Did you pick up?

What, what are you, ghosting me?!

What are you, Dr. Ross, my psychiatrist?

Alright, Well, I'm gonna finish the bookkeeper story.

And this next part, I just know you're gonna love.

'Cause it directly concerns you.

So everything goes according to plan.

Bookkeeper invites the associate over.

Sullivan's guys shoot him in the head.

Except for one very minor hitch.

See?

Very minor hitch...

being that...

the bookkeeper's wife... steps through the door.

...and witnesses the execution.

So one problem begets additional problems, right?

And the bookkeeper's wife begins to unravel.

She starts drinking.

She starts taking pills.

She starts telling the story to anyone who will listen.

My wife, James.

She's become a liability.

And that's when I got a call from James Levine.

The eighth floor...

Labor & Delivery.

Room 829!

As I was saying, your wife's at Labor & Delivery

on the eighth floor, room 829.

Now, I don't kill mothers, as a rule,

unlike some people I know, but I swear to God, James,

if you don't stop acting like this funny little bitch,

I'll break my own rule just this one time.

- Okay. - For you.

I'll do whatever you want.

Just tell me what you want me to do and I'll do it.

You'll get back in your car right now,

and I promise, we'll stay away from your wife.

You, your associates or whatever,

you stay the fuck away from my family.

You have my word.

What happened to... your wife and daughter?

I got a call from James Levine,

and Levine is someone who... fixes things, whatever it is.

and I know if I'm getting a call from him out of the blue,

it is not a small thing.

He tells me what I already know...

that my wife has become a liability.

That Jacob Sullivan himself needs me to get control

of my wife, that she could be the string

that unravels it all.

What happened?

I tell Levine I'll take care of it.

Knowing what sort of man Levine is, I decide my only choice

is to get my family out of Boston for good.

So I... I leave the house,

quickly to get some supplies for the road,

and when I come back...

Back then we had these...

these white rabbits as pets.

And they had babies, so we had a good-sized litter,

and my daughter, she... she liked to play with the babies.

She was so cute.

She'd rub her little face in their soft white fur.

When I come back...

the entire house was up in flames.

It was glowing, all glowing orange,

like a... like a jack o' lantern.

My wife and daughter inside.

But it was the rabbits, James.

Do you remember?

Did you hear the rabbits screaming?

Shrieking?

I know I'm gonna die tonight.

I understand.

And you made a promise that I know you're going to keep.

And I keep my word.

But I want you to know...

that I am...

- David Chamberlain... - You are so fucked

in the head, James!

You're so fucked in the head,

you actually believe you're David Chamberlain!

The thing about lung cancer.

They're dying, right?

We're all dying.

So this was always the end for you, too.

These fucking cops.

You know, the Japanese say,

the more violent the death, the higher the heaven you go.

Alright.

Okay. Let's do this.

Wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait.

I need to know.

Why didn't you just kill me

the second you stepped into my car?

Why let me breathe another second?

'Cause I wanted to hear you say it out loud.

- The words. - What words?

And I wanted to see your face.

Your true face.

Your lizard face reawoke.

What words?

I-I-I'll say it right now.

Sullivan, he told me...

Sullivan. He ordered the hit.

I need you to know...

I never meant to kill your little girl.

Your wife, when she saw my face, she just went crazy.

She just jumped on me and started clawing my face off,

and I pulled the trigger three times.

And your d...

Your daughter...

Just lying in the hallway.

I was drinking myself to death

when God brought Maggie into my life.

And I knew God was evening the score when our firstborn died.

But still, every night, I'd see their faces.

Your wife and your daughter.

I-I-I couldn't stop seeing her.

Then when God gave me my little baby boy,

it was like he was giving me a new life.

He was giving me back your daughter's life.

He was... He was giving me back your daughter's life,

the life that I wrongly took.

I think you gave me closure tonight.

I wish I could have done the same for you.

I'll...

David, I've been calling and calling.

Please call me back. Please say you're okay.

We had a little girl, David.

I'm holding her. She's so beautiful.

She has your eyes.

I don't know who that was on the phone earlier, but...

I know you're okay. I just feel it.

I'm praying, David.

I'm praying God will help you find your way back to us.

We're waiting for you. Both of us.

David Chamberlain.

I'm David Chamberlain.

David Chamberlain.
