not that the court

would do any good.

They never give custody

to the father.

So, what am I supposed to do?

I don't know.

Pray for an earthquake.

A f***ing bolt of lightning,

act of God, some sh*t.

It's all you. Let's go.

Kid's a f***ing natural.

How does that feel?

Pretty good, huh?

F***ing letting her go?

But if you really want to

make a difference in the world

You're gonna want to go

with my old friend

the widow-maker.

F*** a duck!

It helps if you actually

tried to hit the damn thing.

Maybe I ought to

shoot at some birds.

One of them will fly into

the bullet by accident.

Want to try it?

Easy now. Lady's got some kick.

All right, press it more

into your shoulder.

All right, but with a light touch.

Go slow.

Hah!

I told you the kid was a natural.

You okay?

Oh, come on, now. Please?

I'm sorry. I can't.

Why not? I mean, how does a voice

this sweet go so sour on me?

I'll get in trouble.

Oh, please. Come on, please.

There's a note in the file.

That says what?

That says I can't give out

any information.

Are you married? Do you have kids?

I don't think --

Oh, come on.

Is it an emergency?

It might be.

Something terrible might happen.

Hold on.

Here you go.

Hello?

Yes, hello. I'm here.

They're not enrolled anymore.

Yeah, I know that.

My wife took them.

Look, I am just trying to

find out where they went.

I don't have that information here.

Um, well, maybe there's

a record of, uh, the

Uh, I-I don't know, um

- Is that him?

- Yes, this is him.

Hello. This is the vice principal.

Who am I speaking to?

Hello?

Uh, look, I'm

just a concerned parent

just trying to make sure

that my children are safe.

Sir, are you aware

there's a restraining order

prohibiting you from

contact with your children?

And that includes telephone calls.

I didn't call them. I called you.

Looking for their

contact information.

I'm sorry, sir. We can't help you.

Oh, yeah?

How about I come

to your house tonight

and you tell me to my face then,

you chickenshit?

Excuse me?

America strikes back.

Afghanistan is

Can I have a scarsdale?

Sure.

F***ing country, man.

U.S. And British forces

have initiated air strikes

on terrorist training camps

and other alleged military

installations of Afghanistan.

Upward of 50 cruise missiles

have launched.

Pentagon officials insist

that most, if not all,

have been swept into

our precision-guided

Getting out of here.

Un-f***ing-believable.

Can't believe you're

f***ing accusing me

like I'm some kind

of f***ing criminal.

I'm not accusing you of anything.

I'm just telling you what I saw.

Yeah, well

Guess it wasn't

what it looked like, then.

I checked my tank before I left.

Why would you do that?

No reason.

This is some bullshit.

What are you so pissed about?

Look, I'm pissed because

you don't believe me.

I don't believe you

because you're lying.

You know, all you had

to do was refill the tank,

and I would've never known.

Yeah, well, maybe someone's

stealing your gas.

Maybe you could've just

asked me in the first --

Look, I did not take your

little f***ing motorbike!

Then what -- did he do it?!

Did he do it?!

Because if it's not him,

then it's you!

Leave him out of it. You are

starting to sound like my wife.

I'm starting to understand

why she left you.

What I am saying is, I want to

know who got to you, hmm?

Got to me?

- Who got to you?

- Got to me?

Man and child, I think it's time

for you to leave now.

Wait outside just for a minute.

No, no, no, it's time for you

to both get out of my house.

Like those guns?

Pretty fun, huh?

I had a rifle like Ray's.

I loved that f***ing gun.

Broke my heart to sell it.

B*tch want to call me a liar.

She's a liar!

They're all liars!

Hey, look. Look, I helped you.

I brought you here.

I gave you all this.

It is not enough just to say

the words. You need to prove it.

Do you love me?

Then I need you to do

something for me.

Hey, you looking for Ray?

Yeah, Ray said that, uh,

we could stay here for a while.

Ray ain't home right now.

Oh, we'll come back later

if you want.

Y'all can do what you like.

Thank you. Say thank you.

Thank you, ma'am.

He's polite.

Actually, um Are you in a rush?

You need something?

Just one quick thing.

And what's that?

I just need you to come

inside and look at something.

Okay. Just a quick look.

They think all this is permanent.

They don't realize

how supplies are limited.

All it would take is a little push.

A few bodies.

Well, more than a few bodies.

Maybe five, six a day.

For 30 days.

Random targets.

No, not random targets.

When they think it's men

We kill a woman.

When they think it's women

Kill a kid.

Think it's kids

Kill a pregnant woman

A grandma Cop.

Hey, hey, hey.

What are you doing, son?

Can I see the bag?

Can I see the bag?

Do you see these kids?

They think they can do anything.

He's not like the other kids.

He's just confused.

And this is what he took --

veggie burgers.

Veggie burgers?

Not the kind of thing

they take usually.

What do they take?

Candy. Cold drinks.

Girls take pregnancy tests.

He likes veggie burgers.

I'm supposed to call the cops.

I wouldn't blame you if you did.

- You'll talk to him?

- Sure will.

Does he listen to you?

He listens to me.

Now, you listen to your father now.

He's all yours.

Let's go.

It's all right.

Put your hands together, son.

Dad, tell me what I do.

Put your hands together.

Yeah, just the wrists.

Keep them together, son.

Dad.

There you go. It's fine.

Sit. Sit.

Dad, dad, wait.

Sit down.

- There you go.

- Dad, I'm sorry.

Feet together, son.

I just want to let you know

I'm not doing this

because I'm mad at you.

You know that, right?

Dad

Dad, I'm so-- I'm sorry!

This is bigger than we thought.

I can't tell you why.

But I can lead you.

No! Dad!

Dad!

Dad!

Dad!

Dad!

I gave you all this.

It's not enough to say the words.

You need to prove it.

Do you love me?

Then I need you to do

something for me.

What kind of person breaks up

a family like that, anyway?

They just chew you up,

and they expect you

to keep your head down and march

right into the slaughterhouse.

And once you've seen what is

happening, you've got to fight it.

It's insane not to fight it.

Hit back.

Give them the slaughterhouse.

as the most corrupt nation

on Earth.

When you have spilled the blood

of so many human beings.

How'd that happen?

They dropped the bomb,

an atomic bomb

on Hiroshima and Nagasaki.

And they killed off millions

of Native Americans.

I mean, how dare you put yourself

in the position of a moral judge.

How dare you.

So, we got one more stop.

You gonna come in with me

or wait in the vehicle?

Speak up, my friend.

I don't know.

Well, some people do know

what they want.

Some people don't.

As soon as you do know

what you want

you can start making some decisions.

Well, what do you want?

Stay in the car?

There you go.

Man knows what he wants.
