Could you help me out? [ Man ] Do I have a choice?
Yes, hop in.
[ Woman ] Thanks a lot.
What's the emergency, if you don't mind my asking?
Um, there's no real emergency now.
[ Sighs ]
[ Woman ] Do you mind? No. Help yourself.
Oh, God, I need a drink. [ Chuckles ]
[ Pops ] Yeah.
Where you heading?
Anywhere.
You ever been there? Oh, my God.
Uh, Holden, I left my briefcase behind. Will you turn around and go back for it, please?
[ Man ] I'm sorry. If you don't mind, this is just a minor detour.
So, tell me, after anywhere, where would you like to go?
First National Bank on the plaza, if you would.
Oh. Money. Freedom.
I don't give a shit about money.
Well, I think maybe I'll have a drop too.
A drop a day keeps the devil at bay.
Holy shit! Oh, my God! What are we doing here?
This is where I left my briefcase.
You didn't just leave here, did you?
Please, would you turn the car around? Would you just drive out of here?
I can't. It's not that simple.
You've been cleared. Go on through.
Holden, drive over to the gymnasium. Park by the side door.
Now, there's the gym door. It's open. You can sneak back in and try your luck.
And maybe nobody will even know you've been gone.
And don't mention this ride to a soul. No one.
Who are you?
I'm the wrong man in the right car.
Okay.
Shit.
Mr. Moran? Shh, shh, shh.
I'm not breaking out, I'm breaking in. Mr. Moran!
I have the plumber here. He wants to talk to you about the risers in the balcony.
Mr. Moran, are you in the gymnasium?
He's supposed to check in and out whenever he leaves.
Find him. The last thing we need is a young guy running loose in this place.

The right girl in the wrong place.
Good-bye.
I thought you were long gone.
I was. Believe me, I was. But here I am, back for the game.

I could be on that 8:00 flight to New York City right now. Goddamn it!

I plan to be out way before election time.
My first parole hearing comes up in a month, you know.
It's not easy to get out on your first parole.
Oh, I know. I know. Which is why I'm calling you, actually.
I was thinking since-- since you seem to be the hotshot on prison reform,
that, you know,
maybe you could, uh, put in a good word for me?
What is it you would like me to tell them, what an accomplished escapee you are?
No, I'm afraid that I-- I really can't do that.
As a matter of fact, I don't think my endorsement would do you much good, Miss Shea.
The parole board's gonna want to know that you have a guaranteed job...
or you're gonna marry a stable member of the community or something like that.
Marry?
Okay. Um, I'll get married. [ Chuckles ]
Would, um, would you help me out then?
Well, um, you tell me...

Are you married?
- No. - Do you want to marry me?
I mean, as a business deal.
I need a husband, fast.
Wait a second. Is this some kind of joke? No.
Huh? I'm serious.
I'll pay you $5,000. Jesus.
Could you use $5,000?
Y-You don't even know my name. Oh, yeah, I do.
No, you don't. Mr. Moran.
- Mr. Billy Moran. - Robin Shea.
I don't want to rush you on this or anything, but I do have to get back to my cell.
So... what do you think?
[ Scoffs ] I think you should be in a loony bin, not in a prison.
Look, I'd live with you for one year until my parole's up and then I'm history.

He was always in some kind of trouble, but he played great saxophone.
Anyway, one day, he comes knocking on my door.
His arm's all fucked up and bleeding.
He says, could I please get him out of the state fast, you know.
I mean, he couldn't drive. Mm.
He was my friend.
- I mean, what would you do? - What did you do?
I helped him out. We would have made it, too,
except for that damn Porsche runs out of gas in the middle of nowhere.
I assume this Porsche wasn't yours?
No, I borrowed it for the occasion.
It's why I'm here, you know.
So I guess you're not too interested in this deal, huh?
I don't know. Maybe it could work.
You realize if-if we do this thing,
you've got to be a little more stable.
I am totally rehabilitated.

I could definitely use some help around the house and all.
I'm real good at that. I took care of my parents for seven years.

So what do you think, Billy? We got a deal?

Well, I hope you got a prenuptial agreement on this one.

And I'm $6,700 short on my mortgage.
