from the top of a building.

So why the hell

did you quit and come here?

The job quit me, man.

You get to an age,

they start pulling you down.

One floor a year,

end up to near the ground.

- I got my pride. Too much maybe.

- I've been watching you, honey.

Maybe you should talk less

and drink more.

I think these poor folks deserve

another a round, there... Linda.

Hey, Pam honey, how did you... huh,

fall for a... shy guy like Matt?

- His muscles...

- Ah...

- and the short shorts.

- Uhh...

I had to show off

to get her attention.

Every guy in town's

chasing after her...

not only is she gorgeous,

she's smart as a whip.

Don't exaggerate, Matthew.

Her mother's always saying,

Carmen, honey...

because... that's what

her mother called her.

'Cause she's a great singer.

She would say, Carman honey...

You're a talented beautiful girl...

don't go wasting your life

on an iron worker.

You're gonna wake up in 20 years

and realize he never deserved you.

- He's such a liar, my mother adores him.

- We got karaoke here on Friday.

- You gotta come.

- Oh, no.

- Yeah...

- You wait, she's a knockout.

I will knock you out, Matt.

I've been watching you honey,

you should talk less

and drink more.

Why is it that I feel

I knew you best,

when you were talking

with other people?

It felt good tonight.

I like this town.

Telling all your stories.

There ain't nothing

I said tonight back there...

wasn't God's truth.

No... don't turn on the light.

Are you married?

No, sir, I'm on a break.

- Live around here?

- I can't tell you where I live.

It's a government secret.

We found them last week.

Two bodies. Probably shot.

In a remote location

and burnt in the car.

Nothing much left

to be identified.

The Indian

has a surviving brother.

He's doing life in Kingston

correctional facility.

We run DNA tests,

we checked them against his.

Match is positive.

What happens to us now?

After we close the case,

you can go back to your life.

- But if we don't wanna go back?

- That happens.

But what you're saying is,

if we wanted to, we could?

That also happens.

- Still busy.

- Try her again.

I'm not your f***ing kid brother,

you can't order me around.

I know that, Richie,

I buried my kid brother.

So lighten up, we're dead.

If they dig around some more,

we're alive. We just bought us...

some more time, that's all.

Now try the old lady again.

She's... huh, packing tomorrow,

let me go find her.

She says she'll call you

when she gets back to the house.

No, as a matter of fact I'm

staying down here for a while.

Kind of a...

trial separation.

I don't understand.

I'm not sure we do either,

but... that's where we're at.

No, no, say it.

There's no way the lord's

gonna let you break up.

Okay, mom, appreciate it.

She says no way we'll break up.

The Lord knows I prayed for it,

it'll never happen.

Mississippi river, navigation

and rules of inland water ways?

- Homework. A lot of laughs.

- I'll wait for the movie.

Can we at least give it a try?

Now that we're safe?

Maybe Matt and Pam can fix the things,

Wayne and Carmen never could.

- You honestly believe that?

- I honestly do.

- Stay.

- No.

- Stay.

- No.

- Fight with me.

- No.

Don't say no.

It's not one thing.

It's not one... day.

It's not... a baby

or... no baby.

It's... years.

And I need time, Wayne.

Time to remember

what I cared for you...

and what you cared for me.

Okay, let's fix that.

I think we can fix that.

I think we started

to fix it right here.

Who is it?

Are you leaving?

Richie too?

What did he tell you...

about me?

You know how he is,

he brags about you a lot.

- What I do for a living?

- That's none of my business, Armand.

I've enjoyed your company.

And I think you're a nice person.

And I wish you all the best.

I forgot something.

Please pick up.

Hi, that's

I'm not here...

Hungry?

Your mom told us,

you'd be home by breakfast,

you could've driven

a little faster.

We're getting hungry.

Oh...

you got nice hair.

Why don't you scoot over.

I wanna get something here.

You wanna fix the Bird

some lunch?

We brought our own food.

- What'd you want?

- Just waiting for your husband.

And then what?

What, you can't say it?

I know why you're here.

Last time you held a shotgun,

the 12 gage,

you wanted to shoot me,

didn't you?

But you couldn't.

- Where is it?

- In Missouri.

- So, your husband has it?

- I hope so.

Why don't we shoot her now Bird

and take care of her husband later?

- Yeah? What if he calls her?

- Don't answer the phone,

he thinks she went out

get food, fix some lunch.

He comes in,

hi honey I'm home...

Boom!

So, what's...

"Hot Doe Buck Lure"?

Why don't you try some,

maybe you'll attract a deer.

Making the Bird's lunch?

You put in an order for dessert yet?

I eat chicken every meal,

you know why?

No.

Because of Wade Boggs,

he ate chicken before every game.

That's why they called him

the "Chicken Man. "

Bird, you know who Wade Boggs is?

No, Bird doesn't know sh*t.

I'm was gonna be a Major

League ballplayer.

Till my deprived childhood

as an orphan f***ed up my chances.

So I became

a bank robber instead.

Hey, Carmen...

I got an idea... Why don't you

take your clothes off.

You don't have to take

off all your clothes.

You can leave on

your panties...

and your brassiere...

If you wear a brassiere.

Do you?

Do you?

Oh Bird, she don't wear one.

Well, you can just strip down

to your panties, and...

be our little topless bunny

and serve us drinks.

God... damn.

You need to kick

harder than that.

I think you're gonna feel

a lot better...

go to the bathroom...

take off your clothes...

Wash yourself.

Wait!

Use that one.

You need somewhere

to sleep off that hangover?

Give me five minutes.

Okay.

I said I want you topless.

That's my husband's jacket.

Take it off.

Why don't we make a trade.

I take off the jacket...

you take off your top.

I don't like your outfit.

You look like

a little school girl.

Sherlock...

now you're gonna answer

the f***ing phone?

Let it ring.

Hi! We're not in right now,

go ahead leave a message...

Jesus Christ, Bird!

You ever stop eating?

What's wrong with our little bunny?

You scared, what?

There's no reason to be.

Old Wayne comes home, we're just

gonna have a little talk with him.

Isn't that right Bird?

Hey Bird, you gonna ask

if anyone else wants some...

before you finish it?

Man, what you gonna do

when Donna asks you...

to wear one of them

Elvis jumpsuits for her?

I guess you could always wear

that pink one he had...

after he swole up like a pig.

I read about this guy once.

He weighed 1200 pounds.

Can you believe that?

For breakfast he'd have like

two pounds of bacon.

A dozen eggs, some rolls.

Then for lunch he'd have

four hamburgers,

For dinner three ham steaks,

six sweet potatoes,

six or seven regular potatoes.

Some stuffing...

God!

Can you imagine

this guy taking a dump?
