The snipers, who killed

three of your brothers,

are in that complex, moving

from building to building.

And while an air strike

would solve our problems,

we'd rather not blow

every civvy in those residences

to their beloved Allah.

So you are

the United States' scalpel.

You will remove the cancer

and save the lives

of those citizens.

We're only two clicks

to the kill zone.

And even though it is a dry 100

in the dark shade

of this lovely evening,

you will keep frosty.

- Ooh-rah!

Ooh-rah!

You know

what you're here for, Spooky.

General Dullarah?

Liar.

You have to move.

You can't stay here.

Come on, you're gonna have

to come with me.

No, we don't need

a medical unit.

All clear.

- What's going on, man?

Hey, sweetie,

what do you have there?

Hey, uh,

you're really fast.

Could barely keep up

with you back there.

Sir, they wanna know

where they're going.

Is that your teddy bear?

Oh, look at that.

Move that back, two clicks.

Bomb!

Get down! Get down!

Gum?

My wife sends these

from Puerto Peasco.

It's American gum, though.

Because Mexican gum

tastes like car tire.

She can't wait for me

to get back, my wife.

Hey, hold on.

Check it out.

That's my Lucinda,

my boy, Juan Miguel.

He's so full of energy

I get tired

just looking at the picture.

When I get back,

and get my papers,

once I'm a legal citizen,

gonna bring them to America.

# Don't try to find me #

# 'Cause I'm already gone #

# Your star

Will keep me dry #

# Don't try to follow me #

# You'll never guess #

# Feel like coming

For days... #

# Used to think about #

# Yeah #

# Don't try to find me... #

Hello?

# Don't try to follow me #

WOMAN:

MAN:

Spooky, come on, man, pick up.

How's anyone gonna know

they reached you

if you don't put a message

on that thing?

Spooky. I know you're there,

you're always there.

Okay, I'm just gonna keep on

talking until you pick up.

It's Watership Down,

you ever read it?

No?

Oh, man,

it's a good book.

I've read it, like, 10 times.

What's the writing?

Oh, that?

That's English class.

This book right here has

taught me how to read English.

Found a copy in Spanish,

a copy in English.

Any word I didn't understand

I wrote in the margins,

looked it up.

This book was my first step

to becoming American.

I love these rabbits.

Spooky, come on, man, pick up.

What?

What do you need?

What's with the chitchat?

You're going to use up

all my cell minutes.

You think about my offer?

I'm not moving to Arizona.

Come on, what do you got

keeping you up there?

Things.

I laid in a hospital bed

next to you for nine months.

I know

when you're full of sh*t.

Come on, Spooky.

Por favor.

Get your ass down here.

It's sunny, open blue skies.

It's Lucinda and Juan Miguel

finally get their papers.

Come on, man,

I could really use some help

to get the ranch in shape.

Miguel, I'm not moving

to Arizona.

Hey, man, I'm just trying--

Listen, lose my number, okay?

Don't call me again.

Hey, knock it off.

Hey, man,

go f*** yourself.

Watch your language.

Come on, let's just go.

Screw that. Crazy vet rat

don't scare me none.

He's sorry. We're sorry, mister,

we didn't mean to--

MIGUEL:

Hey, Spooky, it's Miguel.

Come on, man,

I know you're there.

Hey, look, I'm just

gonna keep on calling

every day until you say yes.

Come on, man.

I could really use your help.

Don't make me say it.

Okay, sh*t, man,

I need you out here.

Sir, sir.

Let's get this guy out first.

It's okay, you're gonna be okay,

we're gonna get you out of here.

Him first.

I got a lot of injured men,

he doesn't need help as much.

He saved me.

Him first, him first.

Him first.

Him too.

Let's get him on board.

Stretchers now!

Thank you, Spooky.

I owe you.

Damn right you do.

I need you out here.

When do you need me?

Bro, thank you, man.

I'll pick you up in front

of the clock tower, 11:30.

# With all this tension #

# And this hatred

In the world #

# I stand here

Broken in two #

# I'll be back

When this is through #

# With all this tension #

# And this hatred #

# It seems our world

Is in reverse #

# When we come down... #

Thank you.

# I don't know what to do #

Semper fi.

# I just don't

Want to stay here #

# I want to stay alive #

# There's no going back now #

# There's no going home #

# Now that you're stranded #

# On the sand and stone #

# How you miss that old town #

# And how you miss

Your friends #

# But I tell you, my comrade #

# This isn't where it ends #

# We'll meet again in heaven #

# Halos in our hair #

# Everything will be forgiven #

# And everyone'll be there #

# You may

Find yourself feelin' #

Watership Down.

Man, this is a good book.

About these conejos.

Any word I didn't understand

I wrote in the margins.

I love these rabbits.

# That you wanted to be #

# And all your friends

Are so successful #

# You're bitter

And you're blue #

# But Jesus and his angels #

# Are rootin' for you #

# We'll meet again in heaven #

# Halos in our hair #

# Everything will be forgiven #

# And everyone'll be there #

# You know I always feel #

# Like an old, old river #

# Not goin' anywhere #

# But I can go both

Night and day #

# Though I seem so still #

# I'm just trying to forget #

# And I might #

# I just might some day #

# There's a well-worn path #

# By an old, old river #

# Somewhere through the past #

# I can see the interstate #

# I ain't goin' back #

# But I'll try and forget #

# Never thought

Leave it up to fate #

Hey.

I don't think you know.

I know exactly.

I lived there for 12 years.

I think you're a damn fool.

Afternoon. You ain't

with the Halicorp folks?

No.

You're a real genius there,

Terry.

Thought I'd check.

What?

What can I do for you?

Need a room?

No, I'm, uh...

looking for a friend

at this address.

Oh, uh, that's out

in the desert, I-I think.

Uh, Don,

this fellow's looking

for that place out on New Hope.

What place?

You know, the one that's

all the way out there.

There ain't nothing

out on New Hope

but a bunch of construction.

You here

for a construction job?

No, I'm here

to visit a friend.

That's his address.

That's funny 'cause

there's nothing out there.

All the land's been

bought up by development.

No one's living there yet.

What's your friend's name?

Miguel Silva.

I've never heard of him.

Is there a rental-car service

or a taxi?

Tell you what. Check back

with us in a few months.

The way things are going,

we'll be real modernized

by then.

You said there was

a construction site.

Is there a crew shuttle?

What's with all the questions?

Hey, take it easy.

Don't mind him, he's not

the welcome-wagon type.

Yes, there's a shuttle,

leaves in the morning

about 5 in the a.m.

But I'm telling you,

there ain't nothing out there.

Thanks for your help.

Have yourself a good day.

What the hell?

I'll tell him.

MAN 1

MAN 2

Excuse me.

You speak English?

S. Yes.

Did I hear you say something

about, uh, New Hope?
