Is That a Gun in Your Pocket? Page #2
mix things up a bit.
- Look if you're
not in the mood,
just say you're not in the mood.
- No I am in the mood.
- Okay.
- Yeah.
- Sure.
- Okay.
Okay stop, you
know I'm ticklish.
- Hey if I have to endure
the torture of this exercise,
so do you.
- Stop, stop lets just have sex.
- Whoa.
- Told you.
A mauser c96.
- Holy
sh*t is it loaded?
- No.
- Let me see it.
- Whoa dude what are you doing?
You'll get us busted.
- Jesus.
They killed Otis.
- Well luckily it's
just a flesh wound.
Otis must have passed out
when he saw all that blood.
I guess the buttocks is the
meatiest part of the body,
but the real issue here is,
this could have been
much, much worse.
- Are you listening Lance,
you could have killed someone.
- Yes ma'am.
- All right then,
as long as we
understand each other.
- Thanks sheriff.
- Thanks sheriff.
- Thanks bill.
- I'm going to have to
suspend him for a while folks.
- We understand.
- Lance what on earth
were you thinking?
- I just wanted to
show Timmy the gun.
- Well you know we can't have
something like that in school,
especially will all
these shootings nowadays.
It is a beauty though.
- Yeah.
- Whee that grip is sweet.
Walnut?
- Rosewood.
- Bet that put you
back a few peso's huh?
- Oh just a few.
- Well again we can't
have 'em in school.
- We understand.
- You young man aught to know
better than to take a fire arm
anywhere without checking
the chamber first.
- I tell him that
a thousand times.
- Kids.
We all good?
- Thanks Eric.
- Doctor said you should be
out of here in about a day
or two at the most.
- I told you that
intersection was dangerous.
- You were shot dad,
you weren't hit by a bus.
- This time.
- Hey Barb.
Hey Otis, hey Stan.
- Sorry mrs Archer.
- How you feeling there big guy?
- I'd be a lot better
if someone brought me my
cheery jello.
- Good lord he's fine.
- I'm so sorry about this.
Lance is not allowed
out of the house
until he graduates.
- I'm just glad he's
not a better shot.
- Got your ass pretty good.
- He just wants to
be like you Glenn.
How would you have felt
if Timmy were over here
and Lance accidentally shot
him with one of your guns?
Or shot himself.
- I would have felt terrible.
- But it's not going to happen.
- But it could.
I wanna get rid
of the guns Glenn.
Everyone keeps saying how
somebody aught to do something
about all those
shootings out there.
Well you know what,
every avalanche
starts with a single snow flake.
Maybe, maybe I'm that snowflake.
- You're just a plain flake
if you think I'm
giving up my guns.
Hunting with the boys
is my only outlet.
- Killing defenseless
animals is your only outlet.
- I don't get a great book club.
- What kind of an
analogy is that?
- First one that came to mind.
- Then how about you just
get rid of your hand guns?
- I love my hand guns.
Hey no come on.
Hun, honey no need
to fight about this.
It has been a rough day.
I will talk to Lance
again tomorrow.
- Lance.
- Well
what did you expect?
- I don't know,
be listened to for one.
- Asking men in rockford
to give up his gun
is like asking him to
cut of his.
- Oh hey Wally.
- Hey Jenna.
Oh I heard about
Lance shooting Otis,
nasty business.
- You know I needed
to ask you a question,
as the mayor.
- Oh wait let me put
on my mayors hat.
Excuse me.
- I was wondering about
maybe getting rid of
some of the guns in town.
- What do you mean?
- Well I don't know really.
I was hoping you being
the mayor and all,
you might have some ideas.
- Well one idea might
be to lock up your guns,
so your kids can't get to 'em.
- Well what if people
forget to lock 'em up,
or what if the
kid finds the key.
Like mine did.
- Well we can't plan for
every eventuality can we?
Anything else?
- No.
- 10's or 20's?
- 20's are fine.
- Okay.
I gotta go.
I have to get some.
I'll call you okay.
Bye.
- Hey Jenna.
- Hey Byron.
- Missed a spot.
- So did you.
In your underwear.
- Weed.
- Quit it b*tch.
- To you'll what?
Shoot me.
- Yeah I know.
Yeah I have it right here.
- Answer the phone.
- But I'm talking,
just hold on a second.
- Chop, chop.
- Piece of sh*t.
Damn piece of sh*t.
Pretty cool car huh.
- I really don't understand
why you're getting
so bent out of shape
about all this.
- You know I don't
ask you for much,
but I am asking you now.
- I'm sorry hon,
can't we just agree to disagree.
- No.
- All right I'll make you a deal
you get everyone in town
to give up their guns
I will too.
- You know that's
not gonna happen.
- Then why should
it happen for me.
- Fine, but if you
won't do things for me,
I'm not gonna do things for you.
- Fine.
Like what?
- Like cooking for you.
- I didn't starve to death
before we were married,
I can fend for myself darling.
- Well I hope you can do
other things by yourself too.
- Meaning?
- Meaning,
I'm not gonna have sex
with you until you do this.
- Really?
- Really.
- I'm not gonna be forced
into doing something
that I don't wanna do.
And if you don't wanna have sex,
suit yourself.
I can go just as long
as you can without it.
- Guns or p*ssy, sort of poetic.
- Mother must you be so prude?
- Well.
- You got guts girl,
I'll give you that.
But Jen honey I hope
you didn't do it for me.
- I know that Barb,
the truth is i
did it for my kids
and everyone else's kids.
I don't want anyone
else to get hurt.
You could join me.
- Join you how?
- Like in a protest.
No not a protest,
like a crusade.
You all could join me.
- What kind of crusade?
- To rid rockford of
every gun in town.
- I'm sorry but she's crazy.
- What exactly do
you have in mind?
- We get every woman
in town to agree
not to sleep with any man,
until they get
rid of their guns.
- I don't know sugar,
I like having my gun
around for protection.
I mean you don't expect
your house to catch on fire,
but you still have
a smoke detector.
- Come on Shirley,
when was the last time
anyone in this town
needed a gun?
- Yeah but honey, it
just ain't about need,
I like my guns.
- So does everyone else,
but they're just too dangerous.
- I'm trying to
have a baby Jenna.
- Connie this is for your baby.
- Yeah but even
if we all agreed,
I mean how are we going to
get everyone else on board?
I know a lot of
women in this town
that won't go along with this.
- We'll just have to try
to change their minds too.
- Well I do love me
my Smith and Wesson
but if getting rid of them
means I don't have to have sex
with Stan anymore, sign me up.
But how would we, you know,
monitor the situation?
- We help each other.
Every woman in town becomes
part of a support system.
- When you say no sex,
what do you mean exactly?
- What are you Bill Clinton?
- She's right we've got to be
specific about these matters.
I'd say no bjs.
Or ass f***ing either.
- Oh how.
- What about cuddling?
