Hello.

- Stay calm, yeah?

- Hello?

Control. Always in control.

Hey, check it out.

Did you leave this open?

Son of a b*tch!

I knew it! I knew it.

What kind of a wacko needs to

be in a cage to take a drive?

Think she got a ride?

No one comes out here. She ran.

Question is, where?

Where?

Ah, damn it.

Maybe these footprints

would help.

Oh, God.

Keep moving. Keep going.

No stops, just steps.

The next cactus

is, um, 100 feet,

so that's just 100

feet closer to help

and 100 feet closer to mom.

Eliminate all distraction,

envision destination.

Tunnel vision.

It's okay, okay.

This is wrong.

Very wrong.

It's way too steep,

and you know it.

I'm not listening to you.

I'm shutting you out

and shutting you up.

Approach the drop.

Take half-steps down

about 200.

Avoid crapping your pants.

Why won't you listen?

Because you're just

a mirage, okay?

And a mirage is just a...

A reflected light, right?

How far you think she got?

Oh, no more than a half mile.

Girl had issues, remember?

Mm-hmm.

You know, I'm thinking maybe

you stay back here, Pru.

What? Yeah.

What are you talking about? You

don't want me to come with you?

No. This'll be quick.

I'll be right back.

You don't want me

to come with you?

No, I was just...

It's gonna be quick, you know?

I'll be right back.

I have skills. I'm a better shot.

You know it.

I know it. I know.

But we just need to

keep this situation controlled.

Controlled.

Pru...

All right.

Go ahead. You know your orders?

Right? You're in control.

Secure perimeter.

All right.

It's okay.

I know. I'm coming.

I'm coming.

Almost there.

Walking and I'm talking.

I'm walking...

Walking...

Walking...

What?

Oh, my God.

This is good.

Oh, yeah.

Got to be faster.

Got to be faster.

Got to be faster, pruitt.

Too slow.

We have, um, spinach.

I don't like spinach.

It's such an ugly color.

It's so... dark.

You got lucky.

Super lucky.

Getting down here,

in here.

But be careful,

because after good luck

comes bad luck.

Oh, please just stop it.

Oh, my God. Just go away.

I'm just trying to help.

That's all.

Everyone needs help.

Please don't do this.

Please, I'm begging you.

Gracie...

Come on.

That was never

supposed to happen.

Hello?

Oh, well, just f*** me twice.

It's you.

I mean, you're, like, a person.

Like, a real, live person,

not a bat or a cat

or a... vision.

I thought maybe... Hey,

you're not a vision, right?

You're not Evie's ghost?

Here to give me

more f***ing sh*t.

I came out here

with my bike, see?

Then I heard something.

And then I came, and I saw

something... a car in the rocks

this way, and spooky.

Then there's you in the car,

so... coincidence or a sign?

You have a bike?

Triumph bonneville 750.

I was riding... just a

little desert ride...

collect my thoughts,

I have this vision,

and I got a little, I don't

know, out of my way.

It's cool, though, 'cause,

uh, every destination

is really just another

exit ramp, right,

on the highway of existence.

Huxley said that.

Aldous Huxley?

Doors of perception?

Brave new world?

No?

Is your bike close?

Jesus, don't any of you

f***ing people read anymore?

But you were saying...

About your bike?

Yeah. Yeah, yeah, yeah.

It's just, uh...

It's over there.

Um...

You see, I'm sort of, um,

enclosed here.

But maybe you could

go on your bike

and get someone for me?

Get someone for you?

I-I-I don't do errands.

See, I'm bigger than errands.

Now, If you want a ride,

If you want to...

If you want to give our

minds the chance to fuse,

I'll take you anywhere

you've got to go.

So, what do you say?

Ah, so.

Come here.

You're so f***ing slow.

If she got picked up,

we'd have heard by now.

She's out here. Somewhere.

- Give it just a little

- More time, okay?

Then get braids to the house.

She's our focus.

Right.

Listen, once braids pays off

and we get some cash, why don't

you get that cough fixed?

Hey, I wouldn't wish valley

fever on a desert rat.

You've got it.

Where are you, little girl?

Aldous huxley...

I don't care what anyone Says.

I don't care what Evie said.

He was the absolute sh*t.

I mean, check it out.

On his deathbed,

dude's dying of, like,

cancer or scurvy or

something, he asked for

the single greatest hit of LSD

ever administered to

a single human being.

Ever. No sh*t. True story.

I could, you know, If you want,

sometime I could... I could

read you some huxley.

Check it out. Raven.

Raven.

Uh, mister?

I'm in a really big hurry.

I've got, like, a really

big, major emergency.

Ah.

I know.

Stay right there!

I'll shoot! I will!

Move one inch, and you're dead!

What do you want me to do?

Just tell me what to do!

Um, mister?

We're really running

out of time here.

I know. My mother... please,

we can't waste one more second.

I know. I know.

I'm helping you. I'm generous.

You should know that about me.

If we're gonna, you know...

Please,

your bike... where is it?

Right here.

What?

Right... here.

Wh-what is that?

Triumph bonneville 750.

That's your bike?

Well, when I stopped, I gave her

a little going-over, you know?

Some minds, they just...

They won't be contained.

What? I can put her

back together.

I took her apart, yeah?

So I can put her

back together, easy.

Wait. Just wait, okay?

I'm... I'm helping you.

I'm a big person.

A thinker. Huh?

Why the f*** are you pulling

this sh*t on me anyway? Huh?

What the f***, huh?

Oh, now I get it.

Right. Donny put you

up to this.

Huh?

What?

Donny Benji,

Evie's fat-f*** brother.

What are you talking about?

Listen.

Listen.

I didn't touch her.

Do you people understand?

She fell, okay?

She f***ing fell.

I never even wanted to

live on the sixth floor.

I never wanted

the f***ing terrace.

She wanted the f***ing terrace

so she could get a f***ing tan

and look like

Farrah f***ing Fawcett,

whoever the f*** that is.

Now, do you get that?

Do you f***ing get that?

Shut up. Shut...

Shut up. I come out here

to get away from

people like you,

people chasing after me

with all this Evie sh*t.

You people think

you can get me?

Well, you can't.

You f***ing can't.

F***!

F***! F***!

F***! F***ing burns!

I hit the ball

like an egg, Gracie.

Cut calves. Herds.

What do you mean, cut?

- Not literally,

- Like, with a knife.

But he kept the calves from

going to the other side...

But I don't know

If you can ride a horse...

I don't know If you

can ride a horse...

Well, I think we can get him...

All right, hawkeye.

My wide-ass, excitement.

If that's excitement,

I'm playmate of the year.

You mean to tell me

you got that kind

of action back in Hoboken?

- "Action"? Actually,

- Yes, we did.

We can't just stay

like this, you know.

Then give me your phone.

I told you already,

I don't have one.

Come check for yourself.

My brother has one.

He's on his way back, but...

I don't think he's gonna

want to give you anything.

Are you okay?

You don't look so good.
