with someone

that I don't trust.

So you're just going

to have to risk it.

(SNORTING)

(YAWNING)

(ENGINE STARTING)

A**hole!

CHARLES:
You know

I witnessed a bank robbery

that went really wrong.

ANNIE:
Yeah.

What I left out is that

I was kind of involved.

Not in the violence part,

but in the getaway

driving part.

I'm sorry I didn't

say that to you,

but when I got into

witness protection

I looked at it

as a new beginning.

And I knew I wasn't going

to be that guy anymore...

You're a bank robber?

Charlie?

No. I didn't actually

rob any of the banks.

Alex and Allen

did the robbing

and I did the

driving them to and

from the bank robbing.

Banks? Plural?

How many times did

you do that, Charlie?

I don't know. A few.

You don't know?

Maybe 12 or 13.

"Maybe"? Maybe a dozen?

Maybe a baker's dozen?

You're not sure?

No. It was 13.

Yes, it was absolutely 13.

This is why I didn't

tell you about this.

Because I knew you were

going to react this way.

Who wouldn't react this way,

Charlie? A sociopath?

Look, I have

a terrible past.

I'm sorry about that.

But it has

nothing to do with us.

How'd you do it?

How'd you get off, Charlie?

You testified against

your friends to save

your own ass?

They were gonna

charge Neve with

accessory to murder

because she cased the job.

So either I turned

on Alex and Allen,

who did the shooting,

or Neve went to prison

for the rest of her life.

Who is Neve?

The black girl

in the station wagon.

Why aren't they

in prison, Charlie?

They implied I wasn't

a credible witness

because I was...

You know,

engaged to Neve.

You were engaged to a woman

who plans bank robberies?

Who are you?

Listen. Sweetie. Please?

Don't.

Pull the car over.

I think I'm going

to throw up.

I can't pull over right now,

or Alex is gonna

shoot both of us.

Then f***ing

lose them, Charlie!

So you can let me out!

Hey, buddy!

It's me from last night!

Yeah! The minivan!

I could really use your help

I'm at some

abandoned airfield.

(VOMITING)

(GUNFIRE)

(SHRIEKS)

(SCREAMING)

ALLEN:
I cannot

believe this is

a f***ing station wagon!

This sh*t is so fast!

We might not make this!

ANNIE:
Watch out for Gil!

(SCREAMING)

(HORN BLARING)

F***ing sh*t!

Ah!

F***!

F***!

(PHONE RINGING)

DEBBY:
Ah, damn it!

Pick up already.

ANNIE:
Debby.

It's not a good time.

Oh! Am I f***ing up

your massage?

'Cause you're

f***ing up mine!

I got a call from UC.

Sandy's got some

emergency tomorrow.

So you have to be

there by 4:
00 p.m. today.

That might be impossible.

Are you kidding me?

I could leave Milton now

and be there by 4:00.

Deb, I don't think

you understand!

Annie, I am in the

middle of something.

Just get there!

(GROANS)

Don't be a p*ssy.

ANNIE:
Please pull over and

find a place to let me out.

Annie? I want to talk

about this. Okay?

Just let me drive you

to L.A. and we can talk it

out on the way.

You are engaged!

You're a criminal!

If you don't pull over,

I'm jumping out.

And I'm not kidding!

Okay, okay, okay, okay!

Hold on a second, okay?

Annie! Hey!

Where are you going?

You're going

to walk aimlessly

through an orange grove?

I did not lie to you!

Omitting is lying, Charlie!

What if I had sex

with a co-worker and

I didn't tell you that?

You wouldn't

think that was a lie?

No! That would be a lie!

Because we're in

a relationship

and we owe each other

those kind of details.

Look, whatever you're

mad about happened

before we ever met, okay?

Look! I have not

violated your trust

once since we met.

Except for completely

lying about who you are.

Look, you may have had

three-ways with dudes

or smoked cocaine!

But if you had,

just because you didn't

disclose that to me,

doesn't mean

you're a liar!

I don't care what

you did before we met.

All I care about

is who you are now!

Really?

So if I was a pedophile,

if I had raped children,

you wouldn't care about that?

If I had been a member of

the Ku Klux Klan? No biggie?

You wouldn't feel like

a complete idiot for having

fallen in love with me?

(PANTING)

Buddy, I...

I'm sorry. I'm sorry.

I was ashamed.

And I was embarrassed.

And I thought we would

just live in Milton for

the rest of our lives

and be happy

and have babies.

And I would be Charlie.

And that would be that.

What if I did tell you?

Be honest.

Would you have

fallen in love with me?

I don't know!

And I'm never gonna know,

because you took that

decision away from me.

But yes, Charlie!

I find it very difficult

to believe

that someone who

justified robbing 13 banks

would ever not be

that type of person.

It's not exactly

the high profile

background you look for

when you're choosing

someone to have a baby with.

You know,

if I was an ex-drug addict

or an ex-alcoholic,

I guarantee

you would be able

to look past that.

That's not the point.

The bottom line is

in any relationship

you can either wallow

in the person's past,

or you can look

at the person that's

right in front of you

and choose

to move forward.

But you can't do both.

I agree.

Then move forward with me.

But the person in

front of me lied to me.

Whether you want to call

it that or not, Charlie.

I need to get to L.A.

And I'm gonna do

that without you.

How?

(SIGHS)

Hey.

Hey.

Are you okay?

Yeah. I'm fine.

Can you, um...

Can you drive me

the rest of the way

to L.A., please?

Of course.

Or would you rather

go back to our house

and digest all this?

No, Gil.

I just want

to get to L.A.

I can do that.

Why don't you hop in

and I'll gather

all your belongings?

Okay.

Hey, a**hole.

Do not even think about

tailing us. I'm serious.

Or what? You're gonna

stab me with that knife?

I could, if you charged me.

Yeah? Okay.

I'm terrified.

Yeah, well,

you're the aggressor.

Listen. I still think

you're a f***ing turd.

But I'm sorry

that I clocked you

and I appreciate you

taking Annie to L.A.

You're welcome.

Oh, and we know

who got the best

of who in that scuffle.

So, if you forgot,

just ask

your previous shirt.

I will.

GIL:
You got

your seatbelt on?

TERRY:
He's not answering.

Oh, my God!

Uh, Pounce him!

Use your app.

Your Pouncer app.

And Pounce him.

Oh, my God!

You're brilliant. Okay.

I see him!

He's on here!

Okay, um...

Go straight.

He's right there.

He's right there.

He's right there.

Bingo.

Oh, my God.

What the hell happened?

Was he executed?

I don't know.

Randy?

(GROANING)

Oh! (GROANING)

I hit my head.

(GROANING)

Let's go!

You okay?

You want to pull over

and have a warm meal, or...

Or would you

rather process?

Okay.

You process.

Gil?

(SHRIEKING)

GIL:
You okay?

ANNIE:
Yeah. Ah!

Hey!

GIL:
Don't even

think about it!

ANNIE:
Let me go!

(SCREAMING)

Gil!

Gil! What the f***?

(CELL PHONE VIBRATING)

Annie?

ALEX:
Yul?

How you doing, buddy?

Where are you right now?

Where's Annie?

having some French

fries and onion rings.

Why don't you come down?

Don't be a f***ing
