Brothers in Arms Page #6

---

I got shot in the leg.

So you both want to quit,

right now?

John?

There's nothing wrong with

quitting while you're a head dude.

Besides Michael,

look at all that cash.

We got exactly what we wanted.

Well how long do you think

it's going to last us?

Because knowing us,

it won't last us six months.

Give us some credit dude.

- So what, just go back to what we did before?

- Yeah.

Go back to what

we were doing before.

Except with a lot of cash.

Sorry Michael, but,

it's just the right thing to do.

Alright.

[Christian] So, what are

we gonna do now?

I got some ideas.

[John] Well...

I think we can all agree despite the

fact that we're completely broke,

that was the best couple

months of our life's.

Yeah.

Still got to pay my mortgage.

Which kind of sucks.

Yeah, we should probably

sell the boat.

And the cars.

Man, I just put speakers

in that car.

We don't have to sell any of it.

I don't think I have the semen or the

blood to pay off that car, Michael.

Only as long as I don't

get shot again.

- Oh I'm in.

- Hey guys.

Guys I thought we were

done with this?

Uh, we're not done.

John.

- This is a really bad idea.

- Well why's this a bad idea?

Our last job was months ago,

the heats died down by now.

Yeah, we've learnt

from our mistakes.

It's definitely not

the worst idea.

No.

In fact, I think it's

a good idea.

And this time,

we don't spend the money like idiots ok, I'm

surprised we haven't got caught already.

Christian?

Ok, well obviously you're

not gonna listen to me,

you're gonna go rob a bank,

and get shot again.

I did-I did not get shot.

- Levi got shot!

- Shut up, shut your...

- I'm not gonna shut up.

- Shut your f***ing mouth.

- I'm trying to save your life.

- Shush, shush, shut your...

[bang]

[mumbles]

Sorry.

Listen, what if I told you guys,

this will be the last job.

Are we robbing Fort Knox

or something, bro?

Well, it's not going

to be a local bank.

You mean like a big

branch bank.

[chuckles]

- A big bank.

- F***, what do you call it?

- A national bank?

- Like a big bank.

[chuckles] Did you even

go to school?

They don't teach you bank

stuff at school.

They have more money than any of the

locals banks around here, combined.

[chuckles] Yeah, true.

But, they also like,

they have ramped up security,

I mean do you think,

don't you think that's

a little out of our league?

I think we're ready.

Well...

What are we gonna use?

Your dad's Winchester riffle?

I mean it's like a replica

right? It doesn't shoot bullets.

Mm-hmm, sure.

[rattling]

[Michael] During our little vacation

time, I foresaw this happening and uh,

thought I'd invest

some of our share.

- Jesus.

- Oh, God bless America.

Thank God for the

second amendment.

Alright.

It's definitely a start.

[John] What's the plan?

Yeah, thank you very much.

Who was that?

Free clinic on Plaser.

Some sketchy employees but

no sign of our suspect.

One of those boys got shot and I

want to know who he want to.

That's all of them.

Well.

No not really.

There's a lot of names

left off this board.

My wife got her school

nursing degree online,

and I'm pretty sure even she knows

how to treat a bullet wound.

Hell, even a vet could do it.

[Christian] We have an RV

out in the middle of nowhere.

Yet we're still planning

in my parents basement?

I'm superstitious,

what can I say?

Plus, your stallion mother makes

the best potato skin appetizers.

Just tell me you got a plan?

In case cops show up this time.

If that happens,

we shoot our way out.

It won't come to it.

Are we good?

Alright.

When do we hit the bank?

Just give it some time.

Say three or four days.

[knocking]

Come in.

Detective.

I'm heading home for the day.

[officer] Oh sh*t.

That's a lot of names.

Every medical professional

in town.

Even dentists?

Yep.

Anything else.

No you go on.

How many times have

you watched that thing?

You have no idea.

[door shuts]

[Sinclair] Baker.

Baker.

Can I help you?

[Sinclair] I'm detective

Sinclair.

I was hoping to speak

to an Ann Baker.

That's me.

Is there something wrong?

Well I'm sure you heard of the bank

robberies, several months ago?

Yeah.

Well one of the perpetrators

is seen on a security tape,

wearing a bracelet

with your name on it.

Would you mind telling me

how that may have happened?

I don't own a bracelet

with my name on it.

Perhaps you gave it to someone,

a relative perhaps?

Afraid not detective.

A boyfriend perhaps?

- Don't have one.

- Well than an ex-boyfriend?

Never gave him one.

Is that all detective?

Alright well, have

a nice day then.

[knocking]

[knocking continues]

- Ann.

- What did you do?

What are you talking about?

You, John, Levi and Christian are

those bank robbers, aren't you?

No, what?

- Why?

- A detective came to my house today.

Did you tell him about Levi?

No, he didn't ask me

about Levi.

[indistinctive chatter

in distance]

Well what did he ask

you about then?

The bracelet that I gave

you in high school.

He said that he saw it on some

security tape or something.

Do I look like a bank robber

to you?

Who else would have the bracelet

then, Michael?

I was made when we broke up ok, I left it at

a thrift store someone must've picked it up.

Yeah and this?

This wasn't stolen.

Stop lying to me!

It's the truth I won it at a

casino a while back, so.

- I'm not stupid Michael.

- It's the truth!

[knocking]

[sighs] Sh*t.

- What?

- It's him.

- Him, who?

- The detective.

He must have, followed me here.

To the basement, now.

Go.

[grunts] It's Ann,

hide the sh*t!

Can I help you?

I'm sorry to bother you, uh.

You're Christian Bogart?

No I'm his friend,

uh Michael.

You're Michael Stevenson?

[Michael] That's me.

I'm detective Sinclair.

And tell me, do you know

an Ann Baker?

She's my ex, yeah, why?

May I come in?

Just for a few questions.

- Of course.

- Thank you.

- [clears throat]

- What's up?

Coffee detective?

Decafe if you've got it?

We're out.

Whatever you've got then

that's fine.

She's a pretty girl, Ann.

Whatever happened

between you two?

Well she had a bit of a temper.

You know women.

Oh yeah. [chuckles]

Sounds like my second ex-wife.

How long were you together?

Oh started senior year

of high school.

What made you decide to call it

quits? Or when did that happen?

Oh uh, about three years ago.

Wasn't pretty either.

No, that's a shame.

Oh a girl like that,

I'd be buying her gifts.

Like flowers, chocolate.

Jewelry.

She ever give you any gifts.

Oh her gifts didn't usually

come in material form, if you,

know what I mean.

[chuckles]

God, what I wouldn't give

to be young again.

Any who.

I wanted to ask you a few

questions about the bank heist

that took place

a few months ago.

I'm not really all too familiar

on current events.

Surely you read the news.

Actually I-I stick

to comics mostly.

News tends to depress me.

Well, let me catch you up.

A few months ago,
