You buried me in this sh*t,

and you're gonna dig me out.

You're gonna give me the money.

- What money?

- To pay that motel guy off.

There is no money.

You lying sack of sh*t!

I don't have it anymore!

It's gone!

I bought a house!

Half a house.

Near Vegas for Freddie and me.

We're supposed to have a house.

A house?

You bought a house?

Get up!

What are we going to do

with a f***ing house?

You're gonna get that money!

Wait! Wait!

I got it. I got it.

This is what we do.

We go to where

you hid her body...

and we dispose of it

once andfor all...

where nobody can find it

in a thousand years.

Then we don't have

to pay nobody nothing. See?

You idiot!

What?

I never moved her body.

How could you lie to me

about that?

You ate my ear...

you killed your wife,

youframed me...

and you're mad at me for lying?

Jesus, what kind of sicko

would take a dead body?

My head...

You really hurt my head.

Shut up.

Better pray I calm

this motel guy down while...

I go to Red's

and ask him for the money.

Ask him?

Beg him.

Bear his f***ing children

if you have to.

You better take this.

I don't need it.

I don't want any more problems.

We're talking

about serious stuff here.

You might need it just

to reason with the guy.

You don't have to shoot him

unless you absolutely have to.

Good luck.

F*** off.

Always burning the midnight oil,

as they say.

Jesus Christ.

This is unbelievable.

I was just about

to come to see you.

Here you are.

I should come back later.

You're busy.

No, I'm finished.

This adding and subtracting

sh*t you do is hard.

It's very hard.

I don't pay you enough.

Yeah, well...

What did you want

to see me about?

It can wait.

Naw, it can't.

Well...

I'm in kind of a fix, you know?

I was gonna see

about borrowing...

some money, maybe.

You want more money?

You think you can f***

with my books...

and I won'tfind out?

Who the f*** are you?

I didn't take nothin', I swear!

OK, I'm sorry! I'm sorry!

I want it all back.

I'm gonna break

yourfucking legs anyway...

but you are going

to give me back every dime...

and every seed of every joint

you ever smoked of mine...

that didn't belong to you!

I don't have it anymore.

He took the money.

My brother...

I don't give a sh*t!

You took itfirst!

He stole itfrom you,

you steal it back.

I got no beef with your brother.

Thirty-eight grand you owe me.

That's what Ifigure's

gone over the past year...

give or take a penny or a pill.

I mean it.

If I had it, I'd give it to you.

No! That prick...

Are you listening to me?

I don't care about

yourfucking problems!

I look like a f***ing shrink?

You tell it to that c*nt

Ann Landers.

You do what you gotta do.

Sell your mama's blood

for nickels.

I don't give a f***.

My mama's dead.

Right. Well, I guess

you sh*t outta luck.

Just let me go.

OK? I'm sorry.

Hey, don't move!

Red, don't move.

Youfucking sh*t!

All right... Damn, Red!

Drop the gun.

You drop yours.

I pulled mine outfirst.

Then, Sam, you're fired.

Aw, sh*t!

Aw, sh*t!

Sh*t. Sh*t.

It's forty-six thousand,

youfucking idiot.

You can't count, you bastard.

You got here fast.

You said by morning.

That's right. I guess I did.

Would you like a cup of tea?

A sandwich?

So, where's your brother,

parking the car?

Relax. He's getting the money.

He'll be along.

He'll be along?

- Yeah.

- When?

Look, I just...

I don't want no trouble.

Just relax, OK?

OK, I'll relax.

You relax, too.

What's the matter?

Where you going?

Look, maybe this wasn't

such a good idea.

What the f*** is going on here?

Stop it! Stop it!

You took her body, you sick

son of a b*tch, didn't you?

You sick f***er, you!

Where is she?

She put us up to it! That girl...

Shut up!

I'm really tired

of the motel business.

There's no future in it,

you know?

Inside.

We had our eye

on this really nice RV.

It's OK, baby.

Don't worry.

I know it was Sam who killed me.

F***!

Oh, sh*t.

It's OK.

I don't...

I don't get it.

Someone found me

at the side of the road.

Jesus.

Saved my life.

But I saw... I mean, I saw.

Oh, my God, you're bleeding.

She's bleeding! Help!

I'm OK. I'm OK.

Sam's a lousy shot.

Even that close.

The bullet went in there

and out there.

Doctor says I was lucky.

I told him

there's no such thing as luck.

It's real, right?

It must be.

I mean, I've neverfelt like...

Whatever that word is.

Happy.

I need you to tell me

exactly what happened.

I don't know exactly.

I blacked out.

I couldn't remember

anything and...

there you were.

I thought I'd killed you.

- Why would you want to kill me?

- I wouldn't.

- What did I ever do to you?

- Nothing.

Just thinking about you

in that ravine...

bleeding to death...

You broke my heart, Jjaks.

I was scared.

I was stupid. I was f***ed up.

Please forgive me.

Baby...

I've already forgiven you.

- Where are you going?

- I'm hungry.

I've got a f***ing hole

in my stomach.

You want something to eat?

I'll bring us back something.

You wait here.

Oh, sh*t.

Damn.

Here you go.

Can I ask you something?

You want me to throw

that outfor you?

What? No.

Are you OK?

Can I ask you something?

Go ahead. Shoot.

If you had, you know,

killed two people...

murdered them...

and in the process had gotten

almost a hundred grand...

That's close to

ninety-eight thousand dollars...

which nobody was going

to miss, you hope...

and a stranger

was blackmailing you...

would you give him

a big chunk of that money...

you worked so hard to get?

You are weird.

No, I wouldn't give

the bastard a red cent.

Yeah? That's what I think, too.

Could you...

bring me...

one of those doughnuts, too?

Yeah, hold on.

Since I'm a regular,

think I could use your phone?

Yeah, but...

don't make a habit of it, OK?

The Suburban motel.

Twenty-one ninety-five.

That includes a color TV.

How can I help you?

Put him on.

- Yeah?

- It's me.

It's about time.

Did you get the money?

I got the money.

Good.

OK, so come on.

You should have seen me.

I was great.

So we'll see you soon, right?

He had no choice

when I put it the way I put it.

I made him see it my way.

And, Sam, bring the key.

What key?

On top of everything,

he says I owe him 30 bucks...

for the motel key I took.

It's in the fish dish.

The fish dish.

Look on top of the TV.

But I'm not at home.

Where are you?

I'll get you another cup.

See ya.

- Sh*t.

- What?

Stupid machine forgot

to put sugar in my coffee.

This is weird.

You scream

like you just saw a ghost.

I'm the one

who just saw a ghost.

You are a ghost, aren't you?

I know 'cause I killed you.

I was there.

Youfucker, you.

What are you gonna do,

kill us all?

Come on, what's in the bag?

Is that money?

We can all get out of here.

Oh, boy.

You know...

how does something like this

happen to me?

All along

it never occurred to me...

that the only reason

that your body was missing...

is because you weren't dead.

I gotta keep my head here.
