Well, chief, if you know so damn much why don't you fix it yourself?
It I could, you think I'd be standing here wasting my time?
Can you fix it, or do I have to someplace else?

See how easy that was, beautiful?
- Do you have to call me that? - I don't know your name.
Maybe I don't want you to.

You're pretty full of yourself.
I like that about me.
- It's Grace. - Grace, may I carry your package?
Oh, geez.
- You sure you can manage? - Yeah.
- You want me to carry your pack? - No. it's no trouble.
What happened to your hand?
Accident.
You should be more careful,

Got so tired of the old ones. Had them long as I can remember.
My mother made them
Saw them and just knew I had to have them.
You ever see something and just knew you had to have it?
Yes, I have.
This is it.
Thank you.
You're welcome.
- You're not from around here, are you? - I just drove in this morning.
- My car overheated up the road. - Lucky it didn't happen in the desert.
Day like today, you'd be dead in no time
When you leaving?
Not until I get my car
Who knows how long that will take.
And here I made you hot and sweaty
Morning, Grace.
Morning, Sheriff.
- Got my drapes. - It's about time.
See you got yourself a helper loo.
Morning, Sheriff.
Nice to meet you, son.
Same to you
I could use some help getting these boxes in the house
You could shower
Get something cool to drink.
You're still lucky.
Where you coming from?
All over. Detroit.
Chicago. Miami.
Going to Las Vegas. I got unfinished business there
What is it you do?
Whatever pays best A little bartending.
I used to teach tennis
Used to play competitively.
I never played tennis.
I'm sick of your face.
Easy, easy.
Bobby, I want my money.
- You got that? - You're gonna get your money.
You don't have to do this.
You got two weeks, asshole Take two for now.
Finger two.
Thought you might like some more lemonade.
That'd be great.
What do you do anyway?
Little this, little that. Mostly I tell fortunes.
Where'd you learn that?
From my father.
Come here.
Down.
There's something in your past.
Something--
There's a pain.
There's something you want very badly.
It seem very far away to you right now.
But you're determined.
You're determined...
and you'll do what you must to get it.
You can tell all that by my lace?
It tell me what every face tell me
Everybody have a past. They have pain...
and they have something they want.
What do you want?
The same thing you do.
Really?
I want to hang drapes.
Can you hold me?
Tighter. I won't break.
There. Lift me down
You could put me down now. I'm safe.
I'm tired of hanging drapes.
Now what should we do?
I got an idea.
What would that be?
All right, no more games.
What game you want to play?
You carry my boxes for me, and I fall into bed with you?
I think I can find my way back into town.
Maybe I like to know about a man first find out what he's made of.
Thanks for the lemonade.
You didn't answer my question.
Still playing-
What is it you want?
Jake!
I thought you were in Phoenix
Who the hell is this?
Who the hell are you?
I'm her husband.
Husband?
Now who the hell are you?
It better be good, or God help me, I'll break you in half.
Easy, chief. I was helping out your wife.
I was giving her a hand with the drapes. That's all.
Didn't look like you were hanging drapes
That's all, I swear
- You know what that means? - Grace, tell him.
Damn it, Grace, tell him!
I suppose you didn't have anything to do with it, Grace.
He just wandered up here.
I got a mind to put you over my knee and paddle your ass raw.
Is that what this is? You sucker me up here...
so we'll beat the shit out of each other over you?
Forget it.
You don't just walk in here and walk out.
- You broke my nose! - Oh, it ain't broke.
Get going, pipsqueak.
- What the fuck do you want? - I'll give you a lift.
It's too hot to be walking. People die out here, you know.
You're not still upset over that little love tap, are you?
Come on, lad. Get in.
Say, what happened to your hand?
- Accident. - Oh,you gotta be..
More careful. I know.
I guess we've never been introduced proper. Jake McKenna.
Bobby Cooper'
What brings you to Superior?
Car overheated.
Darrell taking care of you?
Darrell's dumb as a sack of hammers
Yeah, he's a character
Where you headed?
- California. - Oh, California. You live there?
No. I got work. A man with a boat wants me to sail it for him.
You're a sailor man, are you?
That'd be the life, huh'?
Just get on a boat and sail away.
A man could pretty well disappear like that.
About your wife. If I'd known she was married--
Wouldn't have made a difference to you, would it? Not a wedding. You know why?
- Because you're a man without scruples. - Hey, man.
I can smell it on you.
- Hey! - Yeah. That's the sweat...
of a man that hasn't an honest bone in his body.
Don't be offended, lad.
A man who's got no ethics is a free man.
Do as he pleases I envy you that.
Besides, a woman with her looks and a man my age, what could I expect?
Women. Can't live with 'em. Can't live without 'em.
Can't live with 'em. Can'! shoot 'em.
Can'! you?
I'll bet you she had you hard as a rock wiggling her ass in your face.
I bet you wanted to pull her pants down and hog her out.
Then I come busting in like a wild bear I can tell you got a temper.
I bet you wanted to snap her neck.
I bet you wanted to kill her.
Would you?
Would I what?
Would you kill her?
Why would I kill her?
Because I'm sick and tired of her god damn little games
Because you could do it, god damn it.
Drift away in that boat. No one would ever see you again
I got a $50,000 life insurance policy.
I'd be more than happy to give the man that does her in a good chunk of it.
I done some things I'm not a murderer.
Oh, yeah, well. How do you know if you never tried?
It's a joke, right? You're trying to rattle me, right?
Yeah, yeah. That's right.
It's nothing but a joke. That's all
Enjoy your stay, lad.
- Oh, man. - You have soda?
- Got a soda? - Hablar slowly, por favor.
A cold soda.
Oh. Something to eat.
No. Drink.
Lady, keep it in, nobody gets hurt.
Same for you, punk. Give me the money.
Get down, senora.
Come on.
That's it? I got kids to put through school.
It's all I have.
You're next, pal. What have you got?
Come on.
Beautiful. You are getting tasty Now give me the pack.
- It's just books. - Well, I'm a reader. Toss it
It's personal things, family things.
Give me the bag.
- This is no good man. - No?
- Senor. - He's fucking with you.
- Give him the bag. - He doesn't want to give me the bag?
He don't have to give me the bag.
Forget it, man. Come on!
- Come on, man. - No! My wedding ring!
- Extra never hurt. Thanks. - Let's go!
Murderer!
You are hurt.
No police.
A hundred dollars? No police?
What the hell happened to your face?
- I had an accident - Another accident
You got to be more careful.
What the hell happened to my car?
Your bottom hose is shot loo. Rotted clean through.
I put a new one in there. Runs like a dream now.
How much?
Well, let's see.
You got parts and labour.
Let's just call it 150 bucks.
How much?
- 150. - To replace a goddamn radiator hose?
A god damn radiator hose of a 1964132 Mustang.
- You know how long it took? - It's not a Ferrari. it's a damn Ford!
It's not just a Ford it's a 1964 1/2...
Mustang.
What's that got to do with a radiator hose?
I don't know
but it's the reason I'm living here and you're just passing through.
You owe me 150 bucks.
I just got rolled half an hour ago for everything I got.
Why don't you get your American Express Gold Card out there...
and call the guy on TV with the big schnoz--
- I don't have a credit card. - I hope you know how to wash dishes
You'll have to work this off.
Look. I got a Movado.
It's worth $7,800. You could sell it tor that.
Sell it to who? I can't see no numbers
It doesn't need numbers. That's why it's expensive. Look at the gold.
No day, no date. Far as I can tell, this ain't worth a duck's fart.
Look here. I got that one for $3.75, and it's got...
every doodad you can imagine.
I'll stick with it.
You son of a bitch! My lawyer will shut you down
You ain't got no credit cards, but you got a lawyer?
You can sweet-talk me all you want, but didn't you read...
this sign right here?
What fucking sign? I want my car!
I want my $150.
What's the line on Dallas?
Eat my fucking nuts, you fucking deadbeat.
- Mike, you ass-- - Mike who?
Cici, it's Bobby.
- Bobby Cooper - Long time.
Yeah, it's been a while. I'm in a jam.
- And you need some money? - Yeah, 150 bucks.
I'm not giving you shit. You stole my CD's.
- I did not steal your CD's! - Who did? My ex-room-mate who you fucked?
Okay, where's my Mr. Coffee?
Rosarita! Bobby.
Fuck you.
- Mom? - Who is this?
- Bobby. - Bobby who?
- Your son. - He's dead.
- No, I'm not dead - You are to me.
Mom!
Hello? Mr. Arkady.
This is the deadbeat Cooper calling.
Motherfucker's calling collect.
What a surprise. I expected to be seeing you, not talking over the phone.
Mr. Arkady, what a day I've had
I know I'm coming up with what will sound like a highly improbable story...
but I swear, I had the money.
I'm on my way to Vegas, and my car breaks down...
in the middle of nowhere,
So I've got your money, and I go into this little grocery store...
in this hick town...
just, you know, to get something to eat..
And the place gets robbed.
Let me guess. This robber gets your money.
Two of them.
They both got nailed. The old lady shot them
- Old lady. - She kills them both
The money's in my bag and gets shredded into pieces.
Not one bill's left alive.
I mean...
what are the odds?
So I was wondering.
I thought maybe you could...
wire me $150 so I can get my car out of the garage.
I'd pay it back with the rest of the money.
- Which you don't have. - I could get it. I'll sell my car.
Where are you?
In this little shit hole about 200 miles east of Phoenix.
Superior.
So maybe you could...
send it here.
Listen to me, you deadbeat little punk.
I don't care if you got hit by a truck and run over by a steamroller.
You owe me $30,000, and I want it.
I don'! care how you get it.
I want it on my desk tomorrow...
or I'll show you what real bad luck is.
- Do you understand you little fuck? - Well, fuck you too.
What did you say'?
I'm sorry. Really.
Listen. There's been so much stress I got so much strain.
You owed me that bread four weeks ago.
Now you say you want another week That's five weeks.
That's also five fingers.
That's a finger a week!
You come here tomorrow and talk to me real nice...
and maybe...
I don't take the other three fingers.
Get your ass down to this Superior, Arizona.
I got a feeling this deadbeat won't see tomorrow.
You get three heads in a row, odds are the next one will be tails.
- Nonsense - It is not.
Why don't you both shut up and drink your coffee...
and stop flipping that damn quarter?
God almighty.
I'll tell you what I'll do.
Come on now. We are jumping.
- Hi. Can I get you something? - You got a beer?
- What kind? - Beck's.
- Ain't got Beck's. Got A-1, Coors. - Heineken?
No Heineken. Got Miller
Boyd thinks if you flip a coin 10 times half the time it'll come up each side.
Genuine Draft'?
No, just regular, plain old Miller...
and you can fucking take it or you can fucking leave it.
I'll fucking take it
Flo! Cheeseburger bleeding.
Be right back with that beer
And a waitress named Flo. Christ.
See there?
He don't know shit about statistics.
What the hell are you, a rocket scientist?
Fucking cat.
- Mister, got a quarter for the juke? - What?
I want to play a song on the juke You got a quarter?
What happened to your hand?
Cut myself shaving.
I know. I got to be more careful.
You got any requests?
No. All that country shit sounds the same to me.
How about I pick one out for you?
Do you like Patsy Cline? I just love her.
How come she don't put out no more new records?
Because she's dead.
Oh, gee, that's sad.
Don't that make you sad?
I've had time to get over it.
You ain't from around here, are you? Where you from?
- Oz. - No, you ain't. You ain't from Oz.
Oz is from that movie.
You are too quick for me.
Now I'm seeing, but I'm not believing
No, no, no. What do you think you're doing with my girl?
- You hear? I asked you a question.
He wasn't doing nothing.
- We was just talking. - Shut your mouth. Go back to the table
Mister, don't make me ask you again. What are you doing with my girl?
I wasn't doing anything.
That's not how it looked to me
Looked to me like you were trying to make time with her.
Is everybody in this town on drugs?
- I just asked him for a quarter - Girl, shut your mouth.
Look here, mister.
You and me, we got a little man's business to take care of
- And I ain't never taken no drugs - Maybe you should.
Look, I wasn't trying lo make time with your girl.
I'm calling you out.
You want to fight over her?
I don't think you know who I am.
The name's Toby N. Tucker.
People round here call me TNT.
You know why?
They're not very imaginative?
Because I'm just like dynamite, boy. When I go off, somebody gets hurt!
Fine. I was trying to make time with your girl. You're right.
Now I'm terrified, and I've learned my lesson and you can go away.
- Jesus Christ - Stand up.
Stand up, mister, or I'll beat you where you sit
Go finish your pop and leave that man alone.
Don't you never mind, Flo.
It's going to be over real quick. Don't worry.
One-touch Toby. Come on, pussy.
You're lucky this time.
Come on, girl. I got half a mind to make you walk home.
What was that all about?
That Toby thinks every man he sees is after his Jenny.
It's more like Jenny's after every man she sees.
- I can't open off-sale for you, sugar - Well, it's the desert.
That's what it is.
I mean...
people out here in the desert go bonkers for some damn reason.
I'm going to help myself to some coffee.
Be careful.
- Son of a bitch! - Fuck. Look what you've done.
Burned my gun hand.
It's all red, sweetheart.
Honey, I'll put a little butter on it. Just hold on.
Joe, gel a mop and clean up--
Why'd you go and scare a nice man like that?
Sorry about that, sugar.
Let's see. it's $3.25.
Have a nice day.
I'll sure try.
Goddamn it!
Why? Get me out of this fucking town.
Jake's my name. Real estate's my game.
So, what can I do for you, lad?
I was hoping we could talk.
- About what? - About your wife
About what you said this morning.
You took a life insurance policy on her, $50,000.
That you'd cut it up with the man that killed her.
I think this heat's getting to you, the way you're rambling on.
You brought it up in your car...
this morning.
Man doesn't always mean the things he says.
- You mean it. - Wha makes you say that?
Because you're a slimy bastard who'd have his wife killed to get some money.
What does that make you?
The slimy bastard that's gonna do it.
I think you're a jealous man.
If you can't have Grace to yourself...
you're not the sharing kind.
I have what you call
a love/hate relationship with Grace.
- You love her, but you hate her - No, I hate loving her.
I hate having to tolerate the little games she plays.
Like fucking half this town behind my back and laughing at me
The bitch?
She wants me to hit her, and then when I hit her, she likes it
She likes to fucking torture me. goddamn it.
But...
she's my family.
She's my little girl.
My baby.
I couldn't stand to watch her eyes roll back in her head...
as she sucks her last breath
Not me.
But you--
you've got a killing in you.
Okay, let's say I want the bitch dead
What do you want?
- How do you put a price on murder? - Well, I put it...
at $50,000, minus your cut, of course, which is?
- Twenty. - Twenty thousand!
No, I don't have that kind of money
I won't gel the insurance until months after she's dead.
- How much can you get? - Oh, maybe 10,000.
- That's a maybe - I need 13.
- That's a bit much. - We're not talking about buying a car.
We're talking about killing your wife. Now it's 13, or it's nothing.
You drive a hard bargain...
but I had a feeling you were my boy when I first met you.
Well, looks like we got ourselves a contract.
Do we shake hands?
If you can't trust the man you've hired to kill your wife--
Here's the thing.
It's got to look like an accident.
If it don't, it's no good
I won't get a dime.
My neck will be on the chopping block while you're living it up somewhere.
How do you want it?
Can't be done at the house.
Come to think of it, we should talk about the money up front.
Oh, sure.
Why don't I buy you a plane ticket while I'm at it? I know you.
Here's what you do.
You go to the house and see her.
- And tell her what? - Tell her you had to see her.
Sweet-talk the woman.
A young buck like you must be good like that.
Then, maybe shift the conversation.
Get her thinking about her Jeep, because she loves that.
It may be the only thing she does love.
She'll take you for a ride--
out in the desert, some place quiet and deserted
Riding through the red rocks and the mesas. She loves it there.
So do I. We got that in common.
There won't be anyone around for miles except the two of you...
and some prairie dogs.
Then maybe--
Well, you can sweet-talk her if you like. It makes no difference to me
Put her at ease, make her feel relaxed and then...
do it
You could leave him.
It's not that easy
Walk away.
Maybe you can take chances.
You can wander around like some stray wherever you please.
I can't
I don't want to be alone
I wish I was a bird
Some of the old people on our reservation...
used lo think people could change into animals.
I wish I could. If I was a bird, I'd fly to Florida.
Disney World.
I always wanted to go there.
Then I'd fly to New York maybe
Then I'd fly to St. Louis.
Then all over Texas.
Then I'd fly to California.
Then I guess I would have seen it all
Then I could die.
They say you don't feel anything--
that the shock kill you before you hit the ground
I've always imagined...
it's just like flying.
I bet right now...
you don't know if you want to kill me...
or fuck me.
No! Stop! I can't!
What's the matter?
Nothing.
Doesn't feel like nothing.
You should get out of town quick as you can.
Don't do this to me. I been fucked over by too many women.
You're becoming the queen of hot and cold.
It's just such a mess, with Jake I mean.
There's nothing I know more about than a mess.
Jake was with my mom...
after my father died.
He used to call me his little half-breed.
Kept my mom on the side...
because he had a wife some place else.
He 'd control me.
You look so pretty.
