Call of the Wolf Page #2

Tell me how to start the fire.

- I gave you dinner,

now you want me to

cook it for you, too?

Aren't you so suave?

- Look, you want

to keep me alive.

More sporting.

- You don't know

nothin' about sportin'.

- Maybe, but I can take

a few guesses about you.

You aren't from around

here, I can guess that.

Not with that stupid

hillbilly accent of yours

which means you trained

to stay up here.

You're good with

guns and survival.

The manual you gave me

is from the marines,

not to mention that little

bit about commercials.

So you're a marine,

or were, at least.

You know you're probably

some washed out old guy

talkin' 'bout the

glory days of 'Nam

who likes stalking rich kids!

You're just havin' fun

with me, aren't ya?

My dad is probably

dumping ransom money

into some offshore account

and any day now a helicopter

is going to land and save me

and you're just screwin'

with me til then.

Yeah, this, this is

nothing but a ransom.

You're a thief and

that's all that it is.

- Wanna eat?

- Oh why yes,

please, mister wolf.

I'll jump through whatever

hoops you want me to.

I'll sing and I'll

dance for you, too.

Hey!

Hey, stop!

Hey!

Hey, stop!

Stop!

Wait!

Hold on a minute.

Hey, easy.

Look...

I was taken.

I'm just looking for

a way out of here.

Do you speak English?

Easy, easy, easy,

calm down, calm down.

All right, all right,

all right, all right.

Okay, okay.

All right.

Sorry buddy.

It's all right.

Do you know English?

- Yes.

- Oh thank god.

Okay.

Okay, I just...

I'm stuck here.

I mean I was put here.

All right.

I just, there's a cabin.

Hey, what?

All right, easy, easy.

It's cool, it's cool.

I woke up in a chair and I...

Do you know how to cook?

Then I saw a sheep in the tree.

I tried to cut it

down the best I could.

I think I saw you.

- I was trying to sneak around.

- Ah, when did you wake up?

- About two days ago.

- Sounds about right.

Do you have your own cabin

somewhere around here or?

- No, he made a

snow shelter for me.

That's where I've been.

He told me how to make

a fire and a spear.

- Whoa, hold on,

you can make a fire?

- Yeah.

- If you can make

fire, then we can cook.

We can eat, come on,

come on, let's go.

- Why did he give you a cabin?

- Well, he wanted to teach me

to be a real man, you know?

Be all tough and cool and manly.

- No, why did he

give you a cabin

and I get a hole in the ground?

- I don't know.

Maybe he doesn't,

I mean, you know,

maybe he doesn't like your kind.

- My kind?

- Well yeah, you're

Mexican, right?

- Are you serious?

- Yeah I'm serious.

Look, he's trying to

teach you a lesson,

so what lesson is he

trying to teach you?

I mean are you

allowed to be here?

- Oh wow.

- No, it's cool.

I'm cool.

Look, I'm from the OC, I got

like two Mexican friends,

they got like a

hundred legal cousins.

- Oh you have two

Mexican friends?

Multicultural.

You think I'm here

because I'm Mexican?

You're a jackass.

He told me that I need

to stand up for myself.

- Oh.

My bad.

I am starving.

I am sopping wet.

And I am freezing.

Well, start us some fire.

Do you need help?

- I want you to go away.

- What?

- If you see how to make

fire, I'm not useful to you.

You can throw me out.

- Come on,

you've gotta be kidding.

I'm not going to do

anything like that.

- Do you want to eat?

- All right.

Cool your jets.

You're out there

right now, aren't you?

You're watching us.

Why'd you send her here, wolf?

Ah, you can probably

see me right now.

Why is she here?

For whatever reason, she

isn't gonna stick around long.

I'll figure it out.

- It ain't hard.

- What did you say?

- I say it ain't

hard to figure out.

I sent her there to kill you.

- Why doesn't that surprise me?

I can't tell, wolf.

I can't tell if you're

trying to kill me

or tryin' to help me.

- Well then, I better

send you a clear message.

- Yeah, and what's that?

Wolf?

Wolf?

- OC?

- Hmm?

- You're from orange county?

- Yeah.

- I had family there

once, they've moved back.

I was trying to

get an internship...

- how did you get my boots?

- Hmm?

- You were wearing my boots.

Those boots.

How did you get them?

- I don't understand.

- You know...

Two days ago, I was

a different guy.

You see that's the weird thing,

I don't know who I am anymore.

And I sure as hell

don't know who you are.

- My name is Viviana.

- I didn't ask.

I said how did you get my boots?

- Those aren't your boots.

- Why did he send you?

Shut up!

Why did wolf send you?

- He gave me the boots.

- Start talkin' Viviana.

- I told you he

gave me the boots.

- You know I never touched

one of these things,

but I think if I can gut a sheep

then I can gut you, too.

- No!

He told me that I

needed to kill that,

that I need to take your

things and I would die

if I didn't action for myself.

- You?

You kill me?

You kill me?

- No, no I

- ah, shut up!

Are you enjoying the show?

Huh?

- Are you out of your mind?

- Well you're here to kill me,

so I guess it's pretty fair.

We're gonna die out

here, do you know that?

Sorry.

- Yeah, sure, it's all forgiven.

- I see

it, but I don't believe it.

Is that Lester workin'?

I mean is he actually workin'?

- Laugh it up, funny man.

- Oh I am, I

am enjoyin' the show.

Especially the show last night.

Let me give you some advice

since you're new to all this.

Next time you wanna

scare someone, use fire.

The thought of their skin

peelin' back and bubblin' up,

ah, it's especially effective.

- You know, I never touched

a woman until last night?

You made me do it, wolf.

- Rita, oh Rita would disagree.

- I never hit her.

- Nah, you never

touched Rita in your life.

No, it was all them other whores

you couldn't keep

your hands off of.

All them other

ladies you've been,

what do your friends call it?

Stabbin'.

- It doesn't matter,

I'm gonna fix it.

- Well now I guess I shore hope

you do get off this mountain

because it would

be a sight to see.

You crawlin' back on

your little worm belly

oh, beggin' forgiveness.

Please, baby, please, I swear

it was a moment of weakness.

- Well what about you, huh?

Kidnapping some

innocent Mexican girl

and throwing her on

top of a mountain.

That isn't too

gentlemanly, wolf.

- Touche.

But let's not forget

that this whole exercise

we're doin' out here

is about you growin'.

- I still think it's a ransom.

I think my dad is paying you off

and any day now, a helicopter

is going to land and save me.

- Is that so?

Why you out here

loppin' up trees

not a lot definitive 'bout

what you're doin' out here.

I spent so much time

choppin' up wood

so you could stay warm.

- I need to be ready

for my trip back home.

- Well if that's the case,

I got a proper pair

of boots for ya.

- And I'm sure there's no catch.

- Just a little walk,

'bout a mile or so north.

I left 'em near a cabin.

- Oh I think I'll

stay right here.

- Bon chance.

- What's all this?
