I did.

Based on the fact that you didn't

meet me in the parking lot,

hollering about

the two out-of-towners

eating here right

before a bank robbery.

Well, they didn't mention

they was robbing the bank.

They pay cash?

That a crime now?

How much did they leave?

How much?

$200.

And they left it before

the bank was robbed. So...

Uh, before this bank was robbed.

I'm gonna need

to see them bills.

Ma'am.

Mmm-mmm.

Ma'am, them bills is evidence.

Mmm-mmm. It's evidence

if they're the bank robbers.

Till then, it's my tip.

And half my mortgage.

So, you go out there and you get a

warrant, and come after the money

that I will be using to keep a

roof over my daughter's head.

One man hit the bank,

just like she said.

Yeah.

Checkered button-down shirt,

jeans, ski mask.

It's on the videotapes.

Checkered shirt.

That was him.

They were sitting right over there.

Tipped her $200.

Go wrestle a description from that

big sassy girl in the kitchen.

You didn't get it yourself?

Oh, and get that tip from her.

We're gonna check them bills.

Good luck.

Yeah, I'd expect

some resistance.

Oh, and, Alberto,

call that motel on 287,

get us a room.

We're gonna stay the night?

Well, this is where

the action is.

Seems foolish.

What's that?

The days of robbing banks

and trying to live,

spend the money.

They've long gone.

Long gone for sure.

What does Justin want

to do when he's grown?

Right now he's dreaming of

slinging a football for a&m.

He's a lot like you.

I bet that puckers your red eye.

More than you know.

Thirty-nine years of life,

10 in jail. If he turns left where

I turned right, he'll be okay.

Yaw.

Yaw.

You want anything?

Dr. pepper, Winston lights.

It's okay. Come on.

What?

What, b*tch?

You looking for trouble,

motherf***er?

You came to the right place.

Boy, you'd think

there were 10 of me.

Oh, yeah?

Not so f***ing tough now,

are you, b*tch?

Hey, man, he had it coming.

He had it coming.

He had it coming.

You got some spunk left in you.

Oh, you remembered the gun!

You're getting

to be old hat at this.

A**hole could've killed you.

Ah, not the way it would

have gone, little brother.

Ten of me, I told you.

Are you trying to make me mad?

I said Dr. pepper,

this is Mr. Pibb.

That's all they had.

Only a**holes

drink Mr. Pibb.

Drink up.

Hello.

Now we're talking.

The women in this place.

What the hell you talking about?

We should get another shot,

they'll be pretty soon enough.

Bartender, whiskeys

if you please.

Coming up.

To your boys.

Let's go change that money.

Sorry. I just sold my car.

This is how the fella paid me.

We take it any way

you bring it, mister.

Wanna play some poker?

I don't gamble.

You can't lose at poker,

not even you.

I'm gonna watch the Aggie

game and have a beer.

Suit yourself.

Come on now.

Suck a d.

Don't lose it all.

Eat my a.

F***ing a**hole.

That's, uh, quite a stack.

Check?

Don't chase me, chief.

You Comanche?

Lords of the plains.

Lords of nothing now.

I call.

Show your cards, gentlemen.

Do you know what Comanche means?

It means enemies forever.

Enemies with who?

Everyone.

You know what that makes me?

An enemy.

No.

It makes me a Comanche.

Does he look like you?

I see his mom in him,

everybody else sees me.

I don't know.

You staying in the hotel?

Yeah.

Take me to your room.

Thank you. Just, uh...

You know, there's no shame in

needing the touch of a woman.

You need it.

I know you do.

Just let me touch you.

Are you trying to work

my little brother?

No, I wasn't doing

anything, but I'm...

Tanner, she didn't do nothin'.

She didn't do nothin'.

But, but, but, but, but...

You saw there was

a stack of chips, here.

Easy mark?

Don't.

Uh... no.

What were you gonna do?

Bring him up to his room,

call your pimp,

roll him, drug him, what?

No. I...

What were you gonna do?

Tanner, don't.

Mind if I sample the goods?

Real...

Hands off her.

Stop it. Stop it.

You're f***ing crazy.

Call me.

We got a problem here?

It's all good. It's all good.

It's all good.

It's all good.

Just got a little drunk

at the bar, sorry about that.

How the f*** have you managed

to stay out of prison

for a year?

It's been difficult.

Like to pay this out

in cash or check?

Get some Debbie money.

Four in cash, rest in check.

Who would you like

the check made out to?

Texas Midlands bank.

Thank you much.

Let's go get a room.

Welcome to the Comanche 66.

Do you have a reservation?

We do not.

Good lord, look at you.

We would be obliged if you

would provide accommodations,

though we failed to call ahead.

Boy, you are trouble.

Oh, the worst kind, darling.

In your last days

in the nursing home,

you'll think of me and giggle.

Why, god,

why won't you answer my prayers?

You begged him for help,

and yet you look

around at your life

and nothing is different.

And so you assume

that god has told you no.

God doesn't say no.

Why couldn't we

drive back to Lubbock?

They ain't robbing

banks in Lubbock.

We're not gonna

watch this, are we?

Ain't you Christian?

Yeah. But I ain't stupid.

God doesn't talk

through this man

any more than he

talks through my dog.

Well, then maybe you should

give your dog a listen.

Ain't you Indian?

You're supposed

to be burning Sage

and dancing around the bed

whooping like a bee stung you.

I'm catholic.

Come on.

Come on! I'd rather dance

around a fire with a spear.

I'd rather have you stab me

with a spear than watch this.

This son of a b*tch,

he wouldn't know god

if he crawled up his pant leg

and bit him on the pecker.

Change the damn channel.

Now, this, this is

what god watches right here.

Don't worry, they're gonna have

soccer highlights on soon enough.

That's for your Mexican half.

Ooh!

Wow, look at this boy run.

Longhorns are gonna have

a good team this year.

That soccer, never

could understand that.

Anything a five-year-old

can do ain't a sport.

Who invented it?

Aztecs?

Kickin' around skulls

or something, right?

Sounds like a Comanche sport.

You know, in three weeks,

you can watch whatever

you want on TV all day.

Hell, you can do it

right now in your own room.

Oh, where's the fun in that?

You know what, Alberto?

What?

In a year's time,

it's my teasing

that you're gonna miss.

It's what you'll laugh about

when you stand over my grave

and wish me well.

God, I hope that's tomorrow.

Oh, that was a good one.

You'll get the hang of this yet.

Isn't it getting late for you?

Yeah.

Yeah, it is.

Oh, heavens above.

Heavens above.

Look at those titties.

Are you f***ing kidding me?

What are you doing?

Sleeping on the porch,

practicing my future.

It's a dangerous thing

we do for a living.

You're lucky,

having seen it

through to the end.

I hope I'm that lucky.

Oh, well.

Without me by your side,

I doubt you'd get close enough

to a criminal to ever be

in danger again.

Just when I was starting

to feel sorry for you.

Indians ain't supposed
