Good boy, Billy.

Now cover up.

I'm so sorry.

Can I...

Can I get you anything?

You can get me the

f*** out of here.

I can't.

I can, but mother would...

What?

Billy, what?

Hit you?

Make your life a living hell?

She's already done that.

You're a grown man.

You need to stand up

and do what's right.

I know, I know,

but I can't.

Yes, you can.

Yes, you can, Billy.

You're sweet.

You're caring.

You're not a monster.

I've done bad things.

We've all done bad things.

The police are gonna

come and lock you up.

I don't wanna go

in the closet again.

Not the closet, Billy.

Not the closet, but in a cage,

and for a very long time.

No, no, no.

Please!

No, Billy!

No Billy, wait.

Billy wait.

Billy wait.

Billy, come back!

Help me!

Good morning, sunshine.

Did you sleep well?

Oh, I'm sorry

about the stitches,

but this is a quiet

community, you know.

What's that?

What?

Oh, I would fix

you some breakfast,

but I have a feeling

you wouldn't eat right.

Which reminds me.

When you decide to cooperate,

we'll see what we can do

about taking those out.

Trust me, they come out a

lot easier than going in.

Oh, and look what I

found on the road.

You must have dropped it

after your date with Brad.

Oh, just remembered Billy

has something for you.

Billy!

Come on in, Billy.

You can do it.

We talked about it, god damn it.

Do it.

Get down on your

knees, that's right.

This is such a

special woman, Billy.

Go on, sweetie.

Will you...

Go on, you can do it, sweetie.

Will you marry me?

God damn it!

You answer him, you b*tch!

Put it on her finger, Billy.

Hold it.

I forgot the camera.

Okay, hold it now.

The two of you smile.

Ah, wonderful.

One more.

Oh, so beautiful.

That's it, Billy.

Okay, come on, honey.

We've got some wedding

planning to do.

Come on.

Come with mother.

Come on, darling.

Come with me.

What do you want?

I was just wondering when

Amanda was coming back.

She left this book at the caf,

and I was wanting to return it.

Oh really?

Now why would Amanda

want to be reading

a book about god damn trout?

I don't know, ma'am.

I was just returning it.

Well, I'll see that she gets it.

Don't you have a caf to run?

Yes, ma'am, I do.

Thank you.

You keep your eye on him, Billy.

You hear me?

Yes, mother.

Oh my god, what

have they done to you?

It's all right, it's all right.

I'm gonna get you out of here.

It's okay, it's okay.

You god damn

little f***ing whore!

Look at that ring.

You don't deserve

that beautiful ring.

I oughta cut your

f***ing fingers off.

You're nothing but a

two bit little slut.

Billy, get in here and

clean up this mess.

Well, don't just stand there.

Get some towels.

Oh god.

He never did have much

brains to begin with.

Now look at him.

Billy, you gotta bring

some garbage bags.

Do you know how much

garbage bags cost?

Of course you don't.

Because you're nothing but

a little gold digging whore.

Hey Joe.

Good morning, Julie.

Mornin'.

You know, I had no idea

they made so many

different kind of bagels.

Did you know that they

made jalapeo bagels?

Damn good too.

Bought a couple extra for ya.

Really, you should try one.

Cream cheese in them too.

Yeah.

How about just rub it on my

ass and skip the middle man.

Hey, watch it.

Anything goin' on?

Had a call from a girl

looking for her friend.

Yeah?

Missing person?

That's a 10-66 right?

10-57.

Yeah.

Not sure if she's

actually missing,

but the girl says that

she took a job out

at that hotel in Mitchell,

and she hasn't heard

from her in weeks.

Says that her cell phone

just goes straight

through to voice-mail.

That's Millie Colvin's

place, isn't it?

Yeah.

Yeah, I told her

we'd look into it.

That's funny.

Haven't heard a

peep out in Mitchell

since old man Miller

got he's balls stuck

climbing over his

Barb wire fence.

Yeah.

Her name's Amanda Millard.

She drives a 1997

red Toyota Turcel.

Nice day for a drive.

Suppose it is.

Oh, if you're not gonna...

No, no.

Take 'em.

Please.

Here.

Just in case you get lonely.

Oh, I'm tired of

this god damn mess.

Here, you take this.

As for you, young lady,

I suggest you straighten up

and start being a team

player around here.

Barrel of fucks.

It's that god damn sheriff.

Oh shut up.

Okay, Billy, stop doing that.

Get in bed.

Don't move, and keep her quiet.

Do you understand me?

Well, good morning, Joe.

Oh, hello Millie.

I haven't

seen you in a coon's age.

Well, you know,

that's a good thing.

Well, we try to keep

things quiet around here.

Can I get you a cup of coffee?

Oh, no thanks.

Already had my quota.

Had to stop twice

on the way out.

I know, it's a long drive.

So what can I do for you?

Oh, I got a call from a

concerned party in bend.

Says her friend took a

job out here with ya.

Amanda Millard.

Yes.

Lovely girl.

She was a big help to me.

She not here?

She left a couple days ago.

Had some business at home.

She okay?

I don't know.

Told her friend we'd drop by,

see if we could locate her.

Oh, now you've got

me all concerned.

Have you tried calling her?

Yeah.

Going straight to voice-mail.

You mind if I take

a look around?

No, no, look around.

File a report, you know.

Formalities.

Well, leave no stone unturned.

It's just me and Billy here,

I don't have any guests,

and he's upstairs sleeping,

so sssh if you can.

Sure, I'll make

it quick and quiet.

Yeah.

Oh sh*t.

Well, if she shows up

or you hear from her,

you give me a call?

Yes, I will, Joe,

and you do the same.

I sure hope she's okay.

Oh, young girls can

be flighty sometimes.

I'm sure she'll show up.

Well, it's good to see ya again.

Give my best to Melissa,

and I'm counting on

seeing the two of you

at the fall festival.

Never miss it.

Oh.

One more thing.

Yes?

I noticed the caf is closed.

Oh yeah, I heard something

about them losing their cook.

Up and left them high and dry.

Ah, that's a damn shame.

I was hankered for an order.

Them biscuits and gravy.

Hey, listen, just give me a call

next time you're out this way,

and I'll fix you up a nice

big order to take home.

Deal.

You have a great day, Millie.

You too, Joe.

Sheriff's gone.

Did you hide that car good?

Yes, mother.

You better sure as sh*t have.

All right, get

yourself cleaned up.

We've gotta pay Ben a visit.

Well, hello Millie Billy.

Is that shower drain

still giving you problems?

Oh no, shower's fine.

We're here for, well, let's say

a little more joyous occasion.

Well, now, what will that be?

Well, you remember Amanda?

Well, of course.

An unforgettable young lady.

Well, it just so

happens that she and Billy

have become quite a pair.

She and Billy?

I know, it's very unexpected.

But Ben, it's all I can do

to keep them from running off.

Well, isn't that a miracle.

Is this true, Billy?

Well, I'll be darned.

So, we've come to make

arrangements for a ceremony.

Well, of course.

When would you like this to be?
