In El Paso, Texas today...
The historical presidential...
motorcade marks the first time
within a generation a president
has set out across the country--
Copy. HP, go to Channel Three.
Hey, this is Nico.
The street's secure and chief in sight.
Check.
Plaza secure.
Can you hear me?
Can you hear me?
Hear me. Try to open your eyes.
Can you hear me?
Can you hear me?
You're gonna be just fine.
You're gonna be just fine.
So, Doc.
What's the word on our John Doe?
Trauma to the right parieto-occipital
sulcus and parietal lobe.
In English, por favor.
The bullet ricocheted off the skull
and missed his brain. He's in a coma.
So he's out, but physically he's okay?
We, he's not gonna play eighteen
holes of golf, Jack.
He's in a coma. He may never come to.
Well, what are his chances?
Give me a number.
Well, fifty percent total recovery.
Thirty-five percent partial.
Fifteen percent you can plant him
in the ground and watch him grow.
But we may have to move him to
Albuquerque.
Now, hold a minute.
I don't want this guy playing
zombie up at Albuquerque
while we got a murderer
running around here.
Now, you do whatever it takes
to snap his ass back to reality.
Pronto. You call me the minute he breaks.
Jack. All I got out here is this damn hat.
Don't let anyone touch that hat, Shirl.
I need to get prints.
Expand the perimeter another
hundred yards.
Sift through every little grain of sand.
You know, evidence has a way of
disappearing right quick out there.
And I know how you like forensic.
I know how you good you are with it
and I know you know
it's the coming thing.
We'll check this thing from ass to appetite.
Okay, the doc's here. I gotta go.
Mind if I smoke?
You know what I'm gonna do one day?
I'm gonna go traveling.
You ever been in New Guinea?
How about Africa?
Spain.
That'd be nice.
Have a real good day.
Maybe if you get better I'll take
you to one of those bullfights.
Oh. Rio. That's where we're going.
Sir? Sir....
excuse me, you need to-
I've got no comment. Christ.
That's all we need is a bunch of
Albuquerque reporters stirring sh*t up.
I don't want the town to get excited
about this guy.
Don't worry about it. I'll brief 'em.
Yeah. But you guys have to promise
me no more than five minutes.
Promise.
Sir?
This is Sheriff--
Sheriff Kolb. You can call me Jack.
It's a small town. This is my deputy.
Shirl Cash. Have you got a name, son?
Say, you wouldn't happen to know...
who might have done this to you,
do you?
Is he hearing me?
He was responding.
I can hear. I can hear you fine.
I just wondered if I knew you.
If you knew me, no.
We, I mean, we stopped by
the room here when you admitted,
but you were unconscious at the time.
You're the sheriff of, she said,
it was, b-, it was bI-. Black Hole.
Black Point.
Black Hole's close enough.
And, uh...Sheriff,
Sheriff Jack, could you tell me-.
Do you know who I am?
Do I know who you are? Well, no.
I was hoping you'd be able to tell me that.
See, we didn't, didn't find any I.D.
You wallet was probably lifted.
In fact, all we found was this.
Rhombus?
Does that mean anything to you?
Tried calling it, but it was a pager
of some sort. No?
Well, what about this?
This, you recognize that?
It's a hat.
It is. Old Man Grant down at the
convenience store said a stranger
bought one just like it and used
his ATM machine.
Does any of that ring a bell with you?
Just old hat.
Well, it looks like we just gotta
get stuck into it
footage see if something shows up.
Yep.
Now, if, uh,
anything does come back to you,
you give us a holler, all...right?
Oh there was, is there an accident?
A really big accident.
Okay, well, I thing Mister Smith
has had about enough for one night.
So why don't we just go?
Jell-O. If you, if I could have some...
red Jell-O, that would be good.
Shirl, come on.
Uh, yeah, do-, good luck to you.
Thank you, Deputy.
Get this man some Jell-O, would you?
Find anything out there when you
extended the perimeter today?
No, not a damn thing.
How do you suppose those gossip
columnists got wind of this.
What are you talking about?
The election's a week away
and there just happened to be a whole
bunch of reporters there that you brief.
What are you saying, Jack?
I wouldn't do something like that.
Jesus, Christ.
You and I have been together
a lot of years
and I don't want to win no
goddamned election that way.
What's that old saying,
why f*** a stranger
when you can f*** a friend?
How come our American flag
wasn't flying today?
American flag is not flying.
I really don't know, Jack.
I g-, I guess it's jammed up somewhere.
I just don't really know.
I'll take a look at it.
You do that.
Pick me up tomorrow
and we'll go check that perimeter again.
Smells like rain.
Are you fine with this?
You and two others.
Half up, half at completion.
Go word is Rhombus.
Hey.
Come on.
Doctor will kill me if he sees you up.
So, Nurse.
Liz.
Nurse Liz.
So you take care of people.
Who takes care of you?
Good question.
Your brother. You have a brother?
Yeah, I have a brother. Logan.
remember about him?
He was demonstrating
how pro wrestling was fake
and he threw me up against
the TV set.
I got nine stitches.
See, there's a scar right there.
You have a scar?
Yeah, right there.
I gotta go, I-.
I think I'll come back later for this.
You know, I told you there wasn't
nothin' out here.
I tried to take some
impressions in the sand.
Hell, you can't take impressions
of nothin' there.
Here you go. Check that out.
Yeah, I better check that out.
The president's
motorcade completed its swing...
through the Southwest today,
traveling through Central Texas.
Strategists see this push to solidify
support in these...
hotly-contested border states
as a brilliant counter-move against...
Republican candidate
Bill Gable's media blitz in the past week.
Polls show the president's
lead continuing to build by this...
recent about face on illegal immigration.
The president's motorcade-.
I have a right to make a phone call.
- I will call the orderlies.
- No. Doctor, please.
Right now! You get in that bed!
I can't believe you would say that.
All right, come on. Go for it.
All right, all right. Take it easy.
What the hell's wrong with you?
He is crazy. I swear-.
Now, take it easy.
There's this conspiracy to kill
the president of the United States...
and I know something about it.
I don't know how I know.
But it's happening in your town, Sheriff.
What are you going to do about it?
He's crazy!
What, this town is like a....
wide spot in the road.
What the hell's the president
got to do with it?
I don't know.
Why, was I shot?
I have no idea.
He said it was his key all right.
Well, let's give it a whirl.
With projected to win...
the Labor Party leader conceded to-.
Yeah.
Don't touch that.
Oh, sure.
