Self-defense, mainly.

Self-defense. What's your

experience level?

Have you shot before?

- Not too much.

- Not too much.

With her.

We just went out earlier

this week,

- shooting for the first time.

- Okay.

Well, we've got a good revolver

here. It's a Smith & Wesson.

Okay.

Three inch barrel,

.357 Magnum chambering,

smaller grip,

easy to carry.

Very reliable, very simple.

How's that feel?

It feels really good.

I mean...

It feels like it fits really

well. You know?

How much is this? OH!

You guys don't have anything

like a little cheaper?

Around like 150 or something?

Not if you're looking for

quality.

Really?

The major question we ask

everybody is,

"What's your life worth?"

I mean, I'll give you an advance

on your pay.

That's not a big deal.

You don't have to do that.

I think it's important that you

feel safe while you're here.

That's really nice of you.

I can't believe it either.

Your first gun!

I know.

How do you feel?

I'm a gun owner.

It's crazy.

It's so crazy.

Are you happy with your

purchase, ma'am?

Your purchase!

Yeah. But you're paying me back.

I know. I'm gonna work my ass

off on that yard for you.

Whoa.

This is so nuts.

Oh god.

Hey, are you okay?

This just means so much to me

that you would do this,

you know?

It really does.

It really, really does.

Look, I just...

haven't felt safe in a long

time,

and you've really made me feel

a lot safer.

And...

I just want you to know how

much it means to me.

It's okay.

It's okay.

Wow.

Bye!

Bye.

Hey.

It's me.

Yeah.

I DON'T F***IN' CARE!

Oh no! Why don't you f***in'

come at me?

You don't know me!

You don't know nothing...

I'm so tired of hearing about

it from you!

Shut the f*** up!

I just wish for something

really bad to happen...

Don...

Just walk the F*** away.

This is none of your F***IN'

business.

You get the F*** away from here.

You need to walk away.

I'll f***ing kill you,

you f***ed up Texas piece

of SH*T!

You get the F*** on the ground!

You get on the f***ing ground.

You f***ing piece of sh*t.

Get down.

Don't f***in' shoot him!

Just call somebody!

Say you're sorry.

Say you're f***in' sorry!

- Hey, hey, hey!

- STOP!

I'm sorry!

Don't shoot him!

It's my fault!

- Don't shoot him!

- No, no, no. Calm down.

Calm...

Put that f***ing gun down.

Put that... hey.

HEY.

- How does it feel?

- Hey. Hey.

How does it feel to be f***in'

scared?

Calm down.

Put that f***ing gun down.

- Piece of sh*t.

- Calm down.

Calm down.

- Doesn't fool good, does it?

- Calm down. Calm down!

If you have a problem again,

you call me.

All right?

Call me directly.

I'm gonna give you my card.

- You can call me on that line.

- Okay.

But you guys have to be careful,

okay?

Yeah.

I mean, we've been out here a

few times for this guy.

And I know what you're going

through,

but this is...

this is their issue.

You call us.

You let us do our job.

- Okay?

- Okay. - Okay.

We can't have you taking matters

into your own hands.

You REALLY have to be careful.

- Thank you. Okay.

- All right.

- I will.

- Yeah? - Yeah.

We don't want to be out here

again. Okay?

Thank you so much. Okay.

- Thank you very much.

- All right. - Goodnight.

Goodnight.

Holy sh*t.

- Holy sh*t.

- I know.

You could be in jail right now.

Can we just go inside and...

calm down?

I don't think I can go inside

right now.

I just want to like, go...

do something. and...

Are you serious?

Yeah, yeah. Just, I need to.

Yeah? Do whatever you want.

Just...

take care of you.

Like... I don't know.

You can't be here right now.

I know.

You can't be doing these

things, Allie.

I know.

Do whatever you want.

Just think about it. Okay?

Take care, please.

Oh god.

I just... I don't understand.

Look, look. I'm sorry.

Maybe you're right. Okay?

Maybe you're right.

What are you sorry about?

Would you please just listen to

what I'm trying to say?

What are you sorry about?

What are you sorry about?

Are you sorry because

I'm pissed at you?

Or are you sorry because you

think you did something wrong?

Just like,

what you gave me out there...

With what you've given me...

Oh, don't give me that sh*t.

- Would you please just listen?

- Don't give me that sh*t. NO.

- Why can't you just listen?

- Because

not only did you point a loaded

gun at someone,

but you scared the SH*T out of

his wife.

So now SHE'S in the same

position that YOU were in.

Not just because she has one

person threatening her,

but she also has you

threatening her.

- I was not threatening her.

- You were threatening her.

- I wasn't threatening her.

- You were threatening her.

I wasn't doing it to her.

I was pointing it at him.

She f***in' called the cops

on you.

You think she wasn't scared?

Maybe she called the cops

before I f***ing got there.

I want you to give me the gun.

I'm sorry.

- You know, I...

- Sarah...

I don't think I can trust you

with it.

I've invited you into my life.

You're staying

in my friend's house.

Just give me the gun,

and I will feel much better.

I'm not.

Why?

Because I don't want to.

Because it's mine.

I just need you to understand.

He would've hurt her.

He would've really, really

hurt her.

It wasn't right.

And I know what I did was...

you know, reckless or whatever,

but...

I'm f***ing glad that guy

was scared.

I'm glad I scared the sh*t

out of him.

He deserved it.

He deserved it. He did.

Sorry, Sarah.

But I had to do it.

And I don't regret it.

I don't think...

I don't think I should stay

here anymore.

You don't think you should

stay here anymore?

Well, that's a smart move.

That's a smart move, Allie!

- Allie, I'm talking to you.

- I'm sorry.

You're gonna run away again,

- I said I'm sorry.

Like, this whole f***ing thing,

- Me f*** off?

you protecting me, you getting

me a job, all this sh*t...

It's just so you can get down

my f***ing pants.

- Are you kidding me?

- Just, this is bullshit. No.

F*** OFF!

- Listen first. Ap...

- Ap...

- Listen first!

- Okay, okay, okay.

You're trying to tell me

that I'm drunk

just because I'm not Mexican.

You're Mexican,

- and I'm not Mexican...

- I'm Mexican and you're wasted.

And you're trying to make me...

because... you're drunk and...

- making it seem like I am so much drunker...

- Beh, beh, beh, beh.

than you.

Don't shush me.

Tell me. Just tell me.

- What?

- I don't know why, but I...

What? WHAT?

Why are you laughing?

Just f***ing say it.

- Oh, then I f***ing like...

- Say it, Clark.

I f***ing like Allie.

You like Allie?

I f***in' like her

so f***ing much.

And I'm so happy...

that I'm gonna play some

music...

in this barn place.

And I'm gonna do it right now.

- Yes, I'm gonna do it.

- Oh.

- Oh, okay.

- Right now. - Bye.

Y'all all right down here?

We're great.

You all right?

I'm fine.

- Good, just checking.

- How are you?

- Never better.

- Great.

I don't know.
