Down by Law Page #4

Well, in this case, Bob, I'm afraid

you gotta say, ''I look at the window.''

So, uh, Za... Jack.

Jack, why-why are you put in this place?

I don't know, Bob. It was, like,

voodoo or something, you know?

I was framed. I'm completely

innocent. You understand?

- Yes. You are innocent man. I understand.

- Yeah.

And you, my friend, Zack,

why are you put in this prison?

I was set up, Bob.

- Just like Jack.

- Mm.

I ''ham'' an innocent man.

I see.

You too are an innocent man.

So, Bob,

for why are you in this prison put?

Me? I killed ''hay'' man.

You killed a man, huh?

What'd you do that for, Bob?

The guy didn't like Walt Whitman?

I never asked this man

if he liked Walt Whitman.

Come on, Bob.

Why'd you kill a man?

I, uh... We-We was, uh,

playing-a card.

No? Table. I have no money,

but I am a cheater.

- Yeah?

- Very good.

But I don't know...

I don't know why they...

they notice after a while

I-I-I-I am a cheater.

It's strange, really. I'm a good cheater.

They notice, and I run, run away,

and they run back me, yes.

In another room with the billiard,

pool... the pool, no?

There. And, uh, and, uh...

But I was very fast, very speedy.

And they for stop me,

take a ball... take ball... many ball.

Very ''closed.''

Ta! Ta! Ta!

And I... You...

You throw ball against me,

I throw ball against you, no?

I take one ball... a number eight.

Very good ball. Black ball.

Ta! Tum! Ta!

In the ground.

First stroke. Ha!

Dead. Very big man.

On the ground.

First stroke.

Is that true, Bob?

This is a true story?

- True story? Yeah, true story.

- Yeah.

True story.

Very true story.

On the ground, the first stroke.

You throw the ball against me?

I throw ball against you.

But I ''ham'' no criminal.

I ''ham'' a good egg.

I am a good egg. Jesus.

Yes. I ''ham'' a good egg.

Yes. We are.

We are a good egg.

- My friends.

- Get off.

Yes.

Watch out for Bob. He may be cheating.

Is no joke.

Look where I am.

Is no funny.

- I have two pair. Two pair.

- What?

- What do you got?

- Nothing.

- Of course.

- Nothing.

Ahhh-ha.

- Heh. What is, ''Ahhh-ha?''

- Screaming.

Screaming. Ahhh.

Screaming? Screaming?

Ah, screaming.

Screaming. One moment.

Eh, screaming.

Screaming. Ecco.

- Put a lid on it.

- Put a lid on it.

- All right, quiet!

Kill the noise.

Let's go. Kill the noise.

Today, today in the yard,

I make a discovery. Very interesting.

And I think, uh, I think

a film I have seen in Italy.

An American film,

very good, lots of action.

''Hit'' was a prison film.

When, uh, with...

H-how do you say

in English, when, uh...

when the man go out

of the prison, running away?

- Escape. Escape.

- What? Escape.

Escape. Yes, escape.

Today in the yard,

I discover a way.

Bob, there's no way you could escape

from the yard. There's no way.

Forget it.

Yes. Yes.

Not from the yard.

To the yard.

If there was a way to get out of here,

we would know about it.

It's your turn.

Come on, Bob.

It's no time for a joke.

''Come on, Bob.

It's no time for a joke?''

But I am no joke.

I am very serious.

I am sure.

Here they come.

Okay, you two.

Time for your walk.

Not you, shorty.

It ain't your turn.

Come on. Let's go.

But I no go for four days!

I no go. I missed my turn.

Really, no joke.

I ''ham'' a good egg.

I no go for four days.

Four days. I missed my turn.

All right, all right,

Leonardo Da Vinci. Come on.

Grazie, grazie.

We... We have escaped

like in the American movies.

Hey. Shh!

Yeah, man.

Out of the frying pan and into the fire.

We could actually make it.

We gotta cross the river.

It's our only chance

of losing the scent of the dogs.

Ah, yeah, yeah. This part I remember.

Shut up.

But I cannot swim.

Oh, man.

Sh*t!

We gotta do it.

We gotta cross.

Maybe Mark Twain will come by

and pick you up in a steamboat.

I'm sorry, man. I'm sorry.

My-My friends, wait!

No time for a joke. I cannot swim.

Jack and Zack, my friends.

I cannot swim!

Arregg the dogs! Arregg the dogs!

Don't shoot me, please.

Jack, my friend. Jack...

He sleeps.

Well,

I ain't going to sleep around here.

This whole place

is crawling with alligators.

Big ones.

Snakes of all kinds.

You got water moccasins,

copperheads, diamondbacks,

you name it, man.

There's all kinds

of sh*t out there.

I say we rest here for a while,

then we keep moving until daybreak.

How big the alligators are?

Uh, 12...

maybe 15 feet long.

Pretty near three times

your size, Bob.

Red ants.

They can eat an entire family

in a half an hour.

My family in half an hour?!

What's wrong, Bob?

I have lost my book of English.

All I ever knowed is there.

Come on, man.

You're lucky to even be here.

I am lucky to even be here.

Matches.

Man, this looks a little too familiar.

I gotta get away

from you guys.

Yeah, that would be nice.

The only problem is

we don't know where the hell we are.

All right, look.

I say we hole up here

for the night...

and tomorrow

we leave in the boat.

Hey, man, who the f***

put you in charge?

I put myself in charge,

because you can't keep it together.

Aw, man.

- The guy's a nut job.

- F*** you.

My job?

I think we should go to Mississippi,

'cause that's the closest border.

I, I, I would like

to go to west, to Texas.

- No. No.

- A strange country I have seen

in many beautiful films.

That's insane. If we go to Mississippi,

we get caught, we could get a retrial.

If we go to Texas,

we get caught, we're f***ed.

Who told you that?

My lawyer told me that

when I was gonna skip bond.

Your lawyer... bunch of bullshit.

Texas, ragazzi.

Very good in Texas.

Cool, man. You go to Texas.

You go to Mars, for all I care.

Just leave me alone, all right?

Look, we're all staying together
