That's a lie.

Why did you really leave?

I just told you.

No, you didn't.

Because not everything

in this life

revolves around f***ing casinos,

and gambling, and money.

I was tired, okay?

I was f***ing tired

of being broke.

Tired of living in a shithole.

Tired of trying

to take care of you

when I had f***ing nothing.

But it looks like

you took care of it, didn't you?

You got rich f***ing Jorge,

and everything's perfect.

That's why you robbed

the casino for us?

I wanted to give you everything.

Why?

Did I ever ask you for anything?

Even with all that money...

you still came back

to this town...

with nothing.

Roy's dead, Cheyenne.

You can call the cops now.

There's no need for that.

Inside.

It's really good

to see you, Bill.

We got a lot

of catching up to do.

Don't we?

Let them go.

They're innocent.

They're innocent?

You mean like you...

right?

Innocent.

They had nothing

to do with this.

Then why are we here now?

Because of the f***ing money.

And I have it.

I have all of it.

I cashed it out last night.

Every last f***ing dollar, okay?

That's bullshit.

Now tell us where that money is.

I'll take you to it.

I swear to God,

I'll take you to it.

But I just have to know

that they're going to be safe.

No.

You see, I got

everything I need...

right here.

Get up.

I said, get the f*** up!

Pick it up.

Nice and easy.

There you go.

Now, what we're

going to do is...

you're going to point it.

Because I want you

to know how it feels

to see someone you love...

lose their goddamn face.

Just tell us where

the money is, boy.

Just shut the f*** up, Dick.

Let's not be stupid here.

Even if the boy didn't cash out,

it's still 100 grand.

F*** the money.

Shoot them in the face.

Do it to her.

Do it.

You're so f***ing disappointing.

Because what you're

telling me is...

what you're telling me

is you want me to do it?

- No.

- Is that what you want?

- You want me to do it?

- No.

Because if that's the case,

I'm always the one

to start with the leg.

You shoot one leg, you might

as well shoot the other.

What's next, huh? Feet?

- No!

- Hands?

I'm tired of f***ing around

with you.

This time...

I'm going to count to three.

And if you don't

pull that trigger...

I will.

Here we go.

Three...

two...

one.

Look at that.

Huh?

Yeah.

Now we're going to make it

a bit more interesting.

Let's say about four.

That should do the trick.

Huh?

Get the f*** up.

Come on.

Get up.

Come on.

Now, do it again.

Pick it up.

Pick it up!

Pick up the f***ing gun!

Mother...

- Wait...

- F*** you.

F*** you. F*** you!

- F*** you!

- Wait, damn it, stop.

- Motherf***er!

- Harvey, think of the money.

Motherf***er, stop!

That's it, I'm done.

F*** you.

No more f***ing games.

Take me where the money is

right f***ing now.

First you let them go.

I ain't much

in the torturing business.

You'd better start talking,

and talk plenty.

I'll take you to the money.

It's all black on the beat

A man who has not passed

Through the inferno

of his passions

Has never overcome them

Play with it

Strong as missile

and country as a fiddle

Knew I was to be rich

and have a big dick

When I was little

Country ass Kanye West

down south kiss of death

Pen and pad work

Nothing less than 100 reps

Get out.

I can hear the people

calling now

That's about a 100 texts

Help the real niggas

That's only about 100 blessed

And the rest of these niggas

just got to see me flex

Times got rougher

I stayed on my knees

And when times stay rough

Mama stayed on her feet

Don't walk too fast.

I don't want surprises.

Had a head full of struggle

And a heart full of peace

Now we hustle like we found

Money on some trees

Go ahead, take a seat.

You're f***ing lying.

Why did you f*** us over?

I know you don't know me.

But Roy was your friend.

He told you that?

That kid meant nothing to me.

He was just a...

Just like res-dog.

Well, you won.

So take the chips.

Put a f***ing bullet in my head.

And it's over.

But those two out in the desert,

they're innocent.

You know,

you're absolutely right.

They are innocent.

Which is exactly why we'll talk.

Before you do that...

how about letting me go out

with a good set of hands.

You said you were

an Omaha man, right?

That's right.

You any good?

I'm better than you.

You're better than me.

All right.

We gonna play.

We're going to play.

Uh-uh.

Just figured we'd play

with the chips.

Well, you psychotic

piece of sh*t...

if this is it...

well, then f*** you.

I'm all in.

Well, don't that

make things simple.

If that's how you want to play.

I call.

What you got, dumb f***?

Off-suit.

Two 7s.

That's the worst f***ing hand.

You ain't got no luck, do you?

You stupid donkey.

I got aces.

Here you go.

Roy's life, though?

It should have been worth more

than some dirty f***ing money.

You'll never get that back.

Not for anyone.

Not even for yourself.

I thought I had it.

I thought I f***ing had it.

I hit the jackpot.

Hit the jackpot.

But it's bullshit.

It's all f***ing bullshit.

The only thing that matters...

is how you play your cards

when you got them.

Mm-hmm.

Well, that's very,

very touching.

But you lost.

911, what's the nature

of your emergency?

Near the Indian burial site.

Keep driving and you'll see

a desert gorge.

Inside, there's a woman...

and there's a man who need help.

Please send an ambulance.

Please find...

Well, remember a few years back

when we all went

to that old-ass ghost town

with all them stinky-ass burros

walking around?

- Oatman.

- Yeah.

It's the farthest I've ever been

outside this whole desert.

And that's where I'm going

to buy the most beautiful,

bright-red Chevelle.

Something like a '68.

And I'm going to drive that

mother clear across the Mojave.

Right until I reach that

one highway next to the ocean.

The loveliest song

I ever heard

Was when you spoke

Those words

Johnnie, I love you

I love you

No, I love you

Like a symphony

Oh, what you did to me

It's a lovely song

It's the loveliest song

It's the loveliest song

Oh

The loveliest song

I know

Is when you say

Hello

Johnnie, I love you

Joe, I need you

I'm crazy

Oh, about you

You're a melody

Oh, what you do to me

It's the loveliest song

It's the loveliest song

It's the loveliest song

Oh, oh

Shoo-bee-doo-bee-doo

What you gonna do

Makes a world

A better place

Shoo-bee-doo-bee-da

You're my shining star

I know our love

Will always stay

The loveliest song

I know

Is when you say

Baby, don't go

Johnnie, I love you

Joe, I need you

You know I'm crazy

About you

You're a melody

Oh, what you do to me

It's the loveliest song

It's the loveliest song
