- Well, I'm gonna kill you anyway.

Alright, hold it! I said hold it!

Your gun ain't loaded, Jack.

How you feeling? Feeling alright?

Hi, how are ya, this is Jim Peterson,

calling from Reno.

I got some information here for Mr. Maranot.

Sit down.

- Jim!

- Hey, Jonesee, how ya doing?

I'm fine, I'm fine. Look, Mr. Maranot says...

...the money was wrapped in green rubber bands, all hundreds.

Yeah, well, a couple of my boys

picked up some cash that matches that description,

from some small-time gambler named Jack Andrews.

He's got some half-assed private eye business.

You ever heard of him?

- No.

- Well I sent my boys to pick him up, but he was gone.

Well, keep looking, okay? If you find him,

Mr. Maranot is going to be very appreciative.

- Okay, Jonesee. We'll keep looking.

- Okay, Big Jim.

- Be good.

- Right. That Andrews is dead meat.

- Yeah, Collect from Jack

- Hey, Jack, what the hell happened here?

Fay's boyfriend happened.

Listen, he's mean, and he may still be hanging

around there. So watch out for yourself.

Me, what about you? Are you alright?

-Fine. Did you find her?

-Oh yeah, well, I checked all the big places and

there was no Vera Billings registered anywhere.

- Damn

- But there was a, uh,

Virginia Billingsly registered at the Hilton.

What do you say pal, this babe is one of the

most cunning criminal minds of this century.

Yeah, that sounds like her. Hey, listen Alan,

I'll talk to you later. I'll call you this afternoon.Thanks.

- Take it easy, man.

- Bye.

Virginia Billingsly.

Excuse me.

Uh, I've got a special delivery for a Virginia Billingsly.

Virginia Billingsly.

- Would you like me to ring her room?

- Oh, no, no I have to hand deliver it.

I'm sorry sir, I'm not allowed to give

you her room number. It's hotel policy.

Oh, I understand. But, uh,

See..

she's an old friend, and,

Uh, she doesn't know I'm coming into town, and I wanted to surprise her.

I'm sorry.

The best I could do is call her.

- Ok.

- Who should I say is calling?

Jack Reno.

I'm sorry sir, she's not answering.

Would you like to leave a message?

- No, I'll, uh, come back later.

- Okay.

Hi. What can I getcha?

Yeah?

- This is Spiv. I think I found something you'd be interested in.

- Oh yeah?

That's quite a dress you got there, Fay.

Jack, honey, hi. How're you doing?

You have to say goodbye to your friends, Virginia.

- I'm on a roll here.

- Sorry, boys, time to go.

Come on, Virginia.

Sorry, fellas. Gotta run.

So.

Want a drink or something?

Met your boyfriend.

- Does he know about me?

- Not yet.

I'm sorry.

I didn't want to run away from you.

But, I was scared.

I didn't want anything to happen to you.

I'll pay you the rest of your cash.

You better just take your money and go.

What's going on?

- What's going on?

- Housekeeping.

Can you come back later?

Yeah, that's him alright.

That's the son of a b*tch who shot Marty,

And she's the one who drove away in the car.

Who are you guys, you got the-

- Put the gun down and relax.

- Where's the money?

There it is.

There it is. On the floor.

That's my briefcase!

Don't move.

See.

That's it alright. You're dead, chump.

I don't wanna go to jail, Jack.

Come on.

Come on!

Where'd you get the money?

I'll tell you later.

- Just drive the goddamn car.

- You'll tell me later.

Jesus, Jack are you crazy?

What are you doing?

- Jack, I'm scared!

- What are you afraid of? It was self-defense.

They'll check out my name...

they'll find out other things.

What things, Fay?

Vince stole the money,

and I stole it from Vince.

These guys in Winemuka, they were working for the mob.

Stealing money from casinos somehow.

Vince killed one of them.

I was there. It was awful.

The other guy was the one who was

just in the hotel room.

So we took off.

I tried to get away, but he'd

have killed me for sure!

So, I...

... Later, he fell asleep, and I hit him.

I hit him on the head.

I wanted to tell you the truth before,

but how could I?

I don't want to go to jail, Jack!

I'll die in there!

Is that what you want?

- Yes, sir?

- Is everything okay here, folks?

Yes, she's just...a little upset.

- Okay.

- Thanks.

Fay.

We're here.

It's good. It's safe. You'll love it.

Oh, um, do you have any money?

I mean, can I have some? I'm broke.

For the rooms.

Rooms?

You know the air conditioner doesn't work.

It's okay.

The ice machine doesn't work either.

It's alright.

Alrighty, Mr. Burl.

Let's see, it'll be you, and,uh...

My wife.

Alrighty.

Now...

One hundred.

- Thanks.

- Okay.

You know, you look familiar to me.

Have you been up here before?

No. Wish I had, though. Beautiful spot.

- Well, alrighty.

- Thank you.

- Fay?

- Yup.

- I've been thinking about tomorrow.

- Oh, yeah?

There's a place up in Maine.

I used to work in insurance, i found it.

It's called, "Safe Harbor."

I was married.

She died, and, and, uh...

- I never wanted to stay in Reno, but...

- Sh*t!

I never wanted to stay in Reno.

She and I thought we'd go there.

There's some really beautiful houses along the coast.

I think it'd be a good place for us.

- You want me to go with you to Maine?

- Why not?

I figure you and I have

a chance to start over.

Most people don't get that second chance.

- You really feel that way about me?

- No.

- I think you're a greedy, two-faced b*tch.

- What?!

There's no reason I should trust you-

but I want to.

If you're straight with me,

maybe we could help each other.

What do you say?

Two suspects have been identified in yesterday's

brutal slaying in a Hilton Hotel room...

...of Stanley Jones, son-in-law of prominent

Las Vegas businessman William Maranot.

Police are searching for a woman

using the name Virginia Billingsly.

The male suspect has been identified as

Jack Andrews, a resident of Reno.

A manhunt for these suspects is currently underway...

...and roadblocks have been set up at

checkpoints around the state.

Anyone having information that could help the

investigation should call the Neva-

Maranot's only the biggest

crime family in Nevada, Fay.

- Let's just get out of here.

- Roadblocks! We couldn't get 20 miles.

We couldn't get 20 miles.

You know what to do, Jack.

Kill me.

Kill me again.

You did it before!

You could do it again.

We could die together.

- "Stage" Studio.

- Hi Alan, it's me.

Jack. Everybody's looking for you.

- Yeah, well. I'm gonna fix things.

- Wait, wait, how can I find you?

Listen, I'm not going to be here long anyway.

It doesn't matter.

Well, where are you going, man?

Uh, it's not important.

What about your place?

All your stuff's gonna get trashed.

- You've been evicted.

- I don't care about any of that stuff.

Listen, if you can get any of it, it's yours.

Are you doing this for her?

Hey, don't do anything stupid, man.

Don't worry, Everything's fine.

Say hi to Teri for me.

Listen, I'm going to send you and her some money.

So, look out for it.

Hey, look, I gotta get going.
