Valley of Bones Page #3

Word down the line is,

you think you found

yourself something

out in the Badlands.

I know I got something

down there, so,

hon, the question is,

what's it worth to you?

So?

Carnivore species were

known to shed their teeth

all over the goddamn place,

but this still has

its root intact.

That means the incisor

was still attached to

the dinosaur when it died.

You're saying

there's maybe more.

There may be a lot more.

See?

What did I tell you?

She's out there.

How do you know it's a she?

I don't know.

I've just been

calling it a she,

like a...

Well, like a captain.

White whale kind of sh*t.

You know what I mean?

Okay, well, you're not wrong.

This here?

T-rex tooth.

It's a fairly large specimen,

too, which among

tyrannosaur breeds means,

yeah, it's probably female.

Cool.

A T-f***ing-rex?

(CHUCKLES)

(CHUCKLES)

I'll be damned.

Hey. Dead man.

You're supposed to be gone.

But here he is.

Here I am.

I'm kind of in the

middle of something

here, slick, all right?

(LAUGHING)

Yeah, I see that.

I didn't mean to

intrude on your date.

But we've seen you now.

Let's go, Reese.

Next time,

they ought to bury you deeper.

So, good. Great, roots,

teeth, all that.

That's f***ing awesome.

That something

I ought to be

concerned about?

I've never seem 'em

before in my life.

Just a couple of

dumb drunks...

'Cause I don't know you.

I don't know

what the hell this is.

But I do not need

that sh*t on my dig.

(GRUNTS)

(GRUNTING)

(LAUGHING)

It's Ace. Okay.

(MUFFLED SHOUTING)

He's all right.

You're all right. See?

See?

Friends.

Buddies.

Right?

Yeah.

You've seen me.

Well, well. Nate Olson,

as I live and sh*t.

Kimberly.

You meet with McCoy?

She did.

Mrs. Jordall.

Hi, it's a pleasure.

Kimberly, please.

"Mrs." is for

spinsters and suits.

We got dirt under our nails,

don't we, Doctor?

Anna, here, she...

You don't have

to give me a big spiel, Nate.

I know who she is.

You're the

paleontologist, yes?

The one that was thrown

into prison for digging up

bones on government land.

Actually, I didn't know

it was BLM land at the time.

(LAUGHS) I'm sure

there's a pretty story.

There always is.

Look, I know how this works.

Someone like you comes

and digs up the bones,

and we're supposed

to arrange for a broker

to find a buyer in Dubai

who wants to be the

only guy on his block

with a dinosaur

in his living room.

What I want to know is,

why should I let an ex-convict

monkey around on my land?

(SIGHS)

I need this.

If that rex is down there,

she's been trapped

for 67 million years.

I think she deserves

a new life.

Well, I certainly

hope she gets one.

I look forward to

meeting our dinosaur.
