- Actually Mom, we're just

hoping to crash for the night.

- Mitch, are you sure your

friends don't wanna play Boggle?

And if not, I have those

Joni Mitchell records.

Do you remember this?

Oh, I remember.

- It's been a long

day, really long day.

We'll catch up in

the morning, okay?

Oh okay, my sweet, sweet boy.

Thanks Mom.

Oh, I'm so happy you're here.

Me too.

Okay, let me take your bags.

Everything's upstairs

that you'll need.

Come on guys!

Goodnight.

- Goodnight, so

nice to meet you.

Are you sure that you guys don't

want some milk and cookies?

We're fine Mom.

Okay.

But I do have Ben & Jerry's.

Mom!

Okay.

I'm glad you're here, sweetie.

You guys, sorry about my mom.

It's amazing she

survived the '70s.

I love your mom.

That's so cute.

I didn't realize you had such

a crush on Richard Greico.

- Yeah, it was

kind of a big deal.

Exactly the same.

It's weird.

- Guys, don't touch

anything, okay?

Just, nothing.

Karaoke?

Yeah my mom made me do that.

There's seven of them.

Yeah.

Seven.

Mhm.

Why don't you do some for us?

- No, no guys, I'm gonna

go get ready for bed.

Come on, Danny in Grease.

- You sleep in my room, I'm

gonna sleep in the guest room.

Funny boy, come on.

- Look guys, it's

not funny, okay?

- Camera out of the face,

this isn't TMZ, goodnight.

We were only teasing.

He's sensitive.

I will sleep on the floor.

Okay.

I'll take that.

Hey.

You awake?

Now I am.

What's up?

I can't sleep.

Think about The Notebook.

- Shut up, that's

my favorite movie.

Yeah, I know.

- You can come up

here if you want.

The floor must not

be that comfortable.

Why?

So you can take advantage of me?

Fine, stay down there.

- Shh, I'm trying to

think about The Notebook.

So this is what a

mattress feels like.

What's wrong?

You still thinking

about the footage?

It's a frikkin' disaster.

- You don't think Steven

Spielberg ever made mistakes?

Look, when we get back to LA,

I will help you shoot that

other project you wanted to do.

You're really sweet to me.

Shh, whoa.

I don't wanna ruin my

bad boy image, you know?

People talk.

Sorry.

I, uh...

What the f*** have you done?

10 years now.

10 years I've been telling

you people to stay away,

but you keep coming back.

You f***ing murdered my son!

You keep harassing my family.

You know, there comes a time

when a man can't

take it anymore.

When a man is no

longer responsible

for his actions to

protect what's his.

A man has his limits!

- Do you have any idea

who you're messing with?

You're already dead.

Now you untie me now,

or they'll just keep

sending more people

until your entire

family is dead.

Why are you doing this to us?

What did we do to you?

- You think it was

something you did?

You're not even a

blip on our radar.

You're nothing!

You hear me?

You're nothing.

You're just in the way!

My son wasn't nothing!

Sooner or later,

we're not even gonna

have to do anything!

The whole town has

turned against you.

F*** you.

F*** you!

No, no, f*** you.

You miserable bastard, f*** you!

He was my son,

and you shot him

down like a dog!

You know,

the good book says

an eye for an eye.

But you and I,

we're gonna start with a hand.

- My mom has one of the

best-kept plant collections

in Southern California.

Well that is a stretch.

Kern County, definitely.

Now listen, I know your

diet is terrible at school,

so while I have you here,

you are going to eat.

- Why do you use bottled

water on your plants?

Habit, I guess.

Doesn't that get expensive?

- Well, with all the

contamination from the fracking,

I'd rather spend the money.

What contamination?

- See, we have veins of Shell

gas and oil beneath the town.

And Mitch was just a

teenager when Saxlow came in

and started fracking the ground.

Problem was, it caused

severe environmental damage,

and that included contamination

to our water supply.

They began buying

up all the property

and trying to get everybody

out before they could be sued.

- Are they trying

to buy you out too?

I mean, they haven't found

any poisons here, yet.

So I just do the bottled water

as a precautionary measure.

But, you know, the other people,

their water, undrinkable.

They say it is so poisonous

that it can cause damage to

your central nervous system,

make you paranoid and crazy.

I don't know much about that.

- Too focused on Richard

Greico and karaoke, huh?

I hate you so much right now.

- So there were

protests as well,

and some turned violent.

There was even a young boy

who they accidentally shot,

and they used that as a

platform to end the violence,

but, oh, this is a poor town.

And so, after a while,

people saw the money

that they were offering

as some sort of savior.

So money made people forget

that they killed that young boy.

- How could they get away

with something like that?

I'll tell you how.

a lot of reporters and

lawyers came into town,

and they started

asking questions.

Saxlow spent millions of

dollars cleaning up their mess.

But you know, in court, it's

not who's right who wins,

it's who has the most money.

Where did the shooting happen?

- Oh, just up the

hill right here!

I think there's part of an old

bunker or something up there.

No one's been up there in years.

But you know what?

Someone should make

a movie about that.

What?

You wanna graduate, don't you?

No.

No way, are you kidding me?

This is it.

I agree, this is it.

It's a good idea, right?

Thanks, Mrs. Pretti.

Okay, everybody eat.

I'm excited, go.

I'm sorry.

You're such a gentlewoman.

- What happened to

helping me shoot a new film?

Didn't mean today.

Guys.

What is that?

Is that blood?

I think it says something.

I sav yav?

It says I saw you.

- Do you think it was

that guy from last night?

Oh my God.

We should go to the police.

Mitch, what are you doing?

That's disgusting!

It's corn syrup!

A**hole.

It was a joke!

Load the gear.

We're leaving, Mitch.

Clean it off.

No sense of humor.

Careful with the camera.

- Hope there's nothing

expensive in there.

Let's go.

Oh sh*t.

Your mom is so cute.

I love her.

- Hey, she wants

to come with us.

Sandwiches and waters.

Mom, we're fine.

- No, you're gonna

be starving later.

Please take it, thank you.

Thanks Mrs. Pretti.

Oh you're welcome.

Oh, so happy to see you.

Bye Mom!

So happy happy happy.

Drive, please.

Love you, you be safe okay?

We will.

You guys be safe okay?

Okay, bye!

Love you!

- Lord have

mercy on that woman.

She's gonna be the end of me.

Yeah, looks like we're

gonna be walking from here.

- You realize if we

go past this point,

it's illegal.

- No more than

killing a little boy.

I think this road should

take us right to it.

Yeah.

Why not, let's go.

You guys sure you got it all?

Yes your highness.

Let's go.

- My prison name

will be C killer.

You know the good news is that

here we can still get our

degrees on the inside, so.
