This is between me and you.

F*** you. Open the shirt.

Okay?

- Where are you, McCall?

- Right here, Roper.

- You satisfied?

- Open the bag. Dump it on the table.

- Pick something up.

- What?

Nope. Closer to the front

of the pile. There. Let's go.

Stay put.

That's impressive.

- What the f*** did you

have to do, steal 'em?

- Yeah, l stole it.

That ain't gonna look too good

on the old service record.

You let me worry about that. Let's just

get this sh*t over with, all right?

A man after my own heart.

Here you go.

Fill it up.

Come on, man. Bring him out.

Move him out.

Step out.

That's far enough.

Right there.

- Bag on the floor.

- l'm not puttin' the bag on the floor.

l took care of my part of this sh*t,

now you let my girl go.

Scott, just do what he says.

Please just do it!

- Hey, Ronnie, relax. We're

gonna get us out of here.

- That l gotta see.

Just a little more.

No! No! Scott!

Hey!

Back off.

Don't move.

Sh*t. Damn it.

l rewired this switch. So you keep

your finger on the red button.

Otherwise

it gets kinda messy.

Such a nice neck too.

- Sh*t.

- Now, walk to me.

That's it, right there.

Right there. Put the bag down.

Now, real nice,

you kick over what's mine.

Oh, no! Please, Scott!

Remember what l said?

Remember that?

When you think you're f***in'

them, they're f***in' you.

You just got f***ed.

Gotta go. Got a plane to catch.

Oh, sh*t, look at this.

Got my car here and, uh, that's

the only exit. Only way out.

You're standin' right

in front of it.

Now, you can move, but--

Scott, what's he doing?

Damn.

Scott, move.

Get out of the way!

Do it now, Scott!

McCall, stop the--

What car?

- Please move!

- Take a shot!

Scott, please!

Come on! Please, help me!

Come on, Scott!

- Stay in here.

- No, what--

Stay inside, Ronnie!

Stay here!

- McCall!

- He went around that way.

- F***, man, how bad you hit?

- He went down that way.

- You all right?

- l'm okay. Get him!

Hey!

Motherf***er!

Get the f*** open!

Oh, really?

That's a bad idea.

l'll show you.

l've never seen a sky so blue

and a sea so clear.

This place is amazing.

Yeah. Yep, l could really

get used to this paradise sh*t.

Oh, excuse me, miss?

Can you get me another

pina colada? And this time,

can you shave the ice for me?

- Oui, monsieur. Right away.

- Oui, monsieur. Right away.

That's very nice to hear.

That's some smooth sh*t,

French.

Scott?

- There's something really special

l want to talk to you about.

- What's that?

l think it's time for this relationship

to go to another level. A deeper level.

- A deeper level?

- l think this is it.

Here and now, we should strip

down and get nekked in Tahiti.

Oh, you're talkin' about

gettin' naked in Tahiti.

l thought you was talkin' about

the ""M"" word just now when you was--

- The ""M"" word? What do you

think l was talking about?

- You know.

- What, marriage?

- Why you laughin'?

The way you said all that.

You know, us needing to go to

a deeper level. And, you know--

Ah, but you did say that you would

get naked on the beach in Tahiti.

No, l didn't say naked on

the beach in Tahiti. l said,

""Let's get nekked in Tahiti.""

The hotel room is in Tahiti too.

l'm not gonna get nekked on the beach.

-You're a prude.

-l'm not a prude. l'm just not dumb to--

- These are strangers.

- Prude.

l'm not getting nekked on no beach in--

And we can go to the room.

l'll take off my clothes and run around

nekked for you. And, incidentally...

that thong in the suitcase,

that's not gettin' worn on the beach.

- Sorry.

- Yeah. l'm very disappointed.

You didn't even try it on

and l bought it for you.

That's for me? lmagine me

in some sh*t like that.

You actually bought--

You actually bought that for me?

-lt would look cute on your ass.

-Oh, get out. Right, yeah. Girl, please.

What if one of my mother's

friends was down here and see me

walkin' around in that sh*t?

- Don't bring your mother into this.

- l'm not. That's--

This is a small world. Somebody

that knows my mother see me

in that sh*t, then they...

""Ooh, girl, Miss Roper's son

be on the beach in Tahiti with

his ass out, on his vacation.

Watch him, girl. Mm-hmm. l see
