some two-bit hooker.

You think I

sold you off?

"Welcher"!

You remember that?

You were telling him you saw him

walk into that ladies' room

after me, and you waited

all that time for what?

Shut up!

What?

Just for fun?

Maybe I didn't

see him go in.

I did not see

him go in.

Did you ever

think of that?

Bullshit.

"Didn't see him."

I mean, you must have me

confused with some Okie

if you think I'm going

to buy that song and dance.

A lot of nice people

from Oklahoma, Lu.

What?

I said there a lot of nice

people from Oklahoma

who probably

wouldn't like it

if they

heard you say

what you just said

about being an Okie.

Eddie, you just threw

me in a bathroom

with some

gap-toothed retard,

and you're trying to talk

to me about manners?

Listen to me,

retard-- Retard--

Retard is also not a very nice

thing to call someone.

You're crazy.

You're f***ing crazy.

You're a psychopath.

Look, did you ever stop

to think that maybe

you don't know everything?

Now, did you ever

stop to think

that maybe someone

twice your age

might maybe know

a little bit more

about getting out

of a tight spot, huh? Do you?

Yeah, well, I know enough

to know that Okie retard

had ample enough time in that

bathroom with little old me

before your

ass showed up.

You disappoint me, Luli.

I disappoint you?

I disapp--

Why do I disappoint you?

Because if I sold you

off to pay some debt,

why would I bother

to save you?

Next time you stick

in the f***ing truck.

Do you want

some ice cream?

Oh, so I'm supposed to melt in

your hand for some ice cream?

All right, okay,

here we go.

Look, I don't want

any ice cream.

I don't like it.

Come on, Luli.

Come on, everybody

likes ice cream.

No, they don't.

I don't.

Ergo, not everybody

likes ice cream.

Ergo?

Yeah, as in,

therefore, hence.

Well, you must be smart.

Smart and pretty, that right

there is a deadly combination.

You-- You think

I'm pretty?

Do I think you're what?

Prett--

You heard me.

I guess.

Well, do you

or don't you?

I think if it weren't for

that horrible mouth of yours,

then some people,

not me of course,

but I think some

people might find you

somewhat kind

of attractive.

In a furry little

animal sort of way.

Well, do you want some

ice cream or what?

No.

No, you don't.

Neither do I.

Let's get out of here.

Be two seconds.

Look, maybe we

should head back.

I don't--

This will be real quick.

You coming?

No.

Come on, I got some

friends I want you to meet.

What do you care?

See, that's--

That's just great.

So I tell you to wait in

the truck; you come inside.

And I tell you to come inside;

you wait in the truck.

Well, you know,

I might as well--

I should just tell

you the opposite.

So please, all right,

pretty please, please,

please,

wait in the truck.

I'm begging you!

All right.

Wait, you sure

you're not a mule?

You sure?

Hey, ladies.

Well, hi there.

Come on, now, I told

you I had errands.

Keep driving.

All right.

I just thought you might want

to know that Glenda called.

She's waiting for us at

Devil's Slide, Motel 6.

Motel 6? Right.

Some kind of

scrape with Lloyd.

Said something

about she owed you.

Besides, I got

you something.

Come on, it's for you.

Come on, Luli.

You don't like it?

It's pink.

Ugh!

Come on.

Come on!

For future reference, pink

is my worst favourite colour.

That don't make sense.

Excuse me?

"Worst favourite,"

don't make sense.

Yeah, you know, if I hear

one more word out of you

from here to the Motel 6,

I'm getting out.

Understood?

You know what?

Hm?

I think you like me.

Okay.

Hey, look at me.

I think that you find

me worthy of note.

Worthy of note?

You find me exciting,

don't you?

I excite you.

You're a special one.

You know that, Eddie?

Special.

That's all they had.

So don't complain.

Come on in.

Where's Glenda?

She's here

somewhere.

Why don't you try

on your new dress?

Well, little lady,

I gave it to you.

I bet you'd look

real pretty there.

You could be

a movie star.

Come on.

Put it on.

Okay.

Hey, Eddie.

Eddie, remember how you

said Glenda called?

What?

Eddie.

Eddie, when did

Glenda call?

Look at you.

Eddie, when did

Glenda call?

Look at you all

grown up there.

Luli--

There's something

I need to talk to you about.

About me and Glenda.

We had a talk.

She said that she

couldn't keep you around

because of Lloyd and all

and that she wanted me

to take you off her hands.

Sorry.

No.

No, you see,

Glenda wouldn't do that.

Oh, yes, she would.

Yes, she would

and she did.

She even gave me a grand

to watch out for you.

And she said

that she felt bad

but she wanted me

to take care of you.

And make sure you stay

out of trouble.

Now, I don't mean to burst

your bubble or anything,

but she gave me

the money

and she said that

she'd be here,

and, well, she ain't.

Glenda's a grifter,

darling.

And once a grifter,

always a grifter.

What?

I need to get

some ice.

You think that she

loves that rich prick?

Let me go.

No, no, princess.

Careful. That thing

might swallow you up.

What's your name?

My-- My name's Luli.

Hey, hey, hey, hey,

you going to ask my name?

Okay, well,

I'll tell you anyway.

My name is Clement.

Yeah,

it's a family name.

Yeah, well, listen.

It was nice meeting you.

Have you ever heard

of the category game?

No.

This game we like to play

with cards, just face cards.

Why is it called

the category game?

Because every time

you flip a jack,

you have to think

of a category.

What kind?

Could be anything, man.

You know, like things you would

find in a hardware store

or fake rock bands

in alphabetical order.

Then you keep going

around until someone

gives up or

someone repeats.

Then they have to drink.

Yeah, listen,

I gotta make a call,

and you see, I don't

feel like going back

to my room to get

a quarter.

Okay.

I'll tell you what.

I will give you one shiny

quarter just for playing.

I got quarters.

I got crazy

quarters.

Yeah?

Yeah? Yeah?

Let's go.

What?

All right. All right.

Let's play.

King, guy drinks.

Queen, girl drinks.

Queen, yeah, you drink.

Jack, category.

Category is what's

a good category?

Cereal.

That's a good category.

What's your

favourite cereal?

Do I lose a turn?

Mm-hm.

Cap'n Crunch.

Nice.

You start.

You go ahead.

Okay.

Movies?

Movies?

Have you seen

Deliverance?

Okay.

Burt Reynolds,

you know, with the arrow.

It's great.

Jon Voight has a purdy mouth.

Yeah, Burt Reynolds

was a little late

in saving them because Ned

Beatty already found them.

Yeah. That's me again.

(Laughing)

Mm.

Ah!

Category.

What about girls whose

hearts you've broken?

Oh, curveball.

I'm going all night.

Number one?

Number one? Hm, is there

something like cooler

like Star Wars

characters or--

Chewbacca!

Ahem. Oh, I have to drink.

Category, things you would

find in a hardware store.

Anvil.

Hey, it's time to go.

I'm really sorry, sir.
