Midnight Run Page #7

You were about to steal a plane!|- I'm trying to save my life!

I should give 'em something.

Give me your watch.|- My watch? Sh*t!

Keep it.|It's worth a lot of money.

Get in. Stand back!

Get in. Get in!

Let's be fair about this.

You lied to me first.|At the river.

Get the...

At the river!

You lied to me first.|You got some f***in' nerve.

No, you lied to me first.|- You lied to me first.

Yes! I lied to you first,|but you had no knowledge I was lying...

about my fear of flying at the river|when you lied to me first.

So as far as you knew,|you lied to me first.

I can't argue with you.|I don't know what you're talking about.

You're saying you lied to me first|as far as you knew.

What's the matter?|- I got an ulcer.

Yeah, I've got a f***in' ulcer.|All your bullshit started it bleeding.

You know why you have an ulcer? Because|you have two forms of expression.

Silence and rage!

Get some milk to coat it.

Don't tell me what I need.|I need something to eat.

What will we buy it with? Dirt?

Drive to the next town.|I'll take care of it.

You'll take care of it?|What do you mean?

Drive to the next town.

But you lied first.

Now what?|- Give me that FBl badge.

The FBl badge?

Yeah, the FBl badge.

Uncuff me.

Uncuff you?|- Uncuff me.

Do you want to eat a nice meal?

Want some of that sh*t you eat?

Come on, uncuff me.

You f*** with me...

You'll hit me on the head|and drop in a thing.

Uncuff me.

Who's in charge here?|- Who wants to know?

Me.

The manager.

I'd like to see the manager|as soon as possible.

Yes, sir.

Sorry.

Yeah?|- Alonzo Mosely, FBl.

We've been tracking counterfeiters|passing phony $20 bills.

Have you received any $20 bills|in the last couple of hours?

Sure, all the time.

You get them all the time.|Would you take two steps backwards?

Would you mind|opening the register?

Don't touch 'em.

Excuse me.

Contract two, Hank.|Check 'em out.

Give him a pencil, please.

Do the litmus configuration.

You're doing the litmus configuration?|- Litmus configuration.

You seen any suspicious-looking|characters around here?

Do you live around here?|- Yeah.

How's it look?|- This one's bad.

Describe what the last man who passed|a $20 bill looked like.

Thirty. Tall.

About six feet tall?|- Six-five.

Dark brown hair?|- Light colored.

Sounds like our man.|- That's him.

We have to take these bills|for evidence. Make 'em a receipt.

This one's bad, too.

Notify the other establishments|of the situation.

What's the name of your establishment?|- Red's Corner Bar.

Are you Red?

Do you dye your hair?

Why do they call you Red?

It's short for Red Wood.|My last name's Wood.

What's your first name?|- Bill.

Thank you for your cooperation, Bill.

Hank.

These are all bad.|Those are good.

We're gonna get this train.|- What?

We're gonna catch this train.|- I can't catch a train.

You also couldn't fly. Start runnin'.|- Wait! It's a freight train!

I can't do this!

I deeply feel I can't do this!

You like to travel by train.|Get up there!

What are you doin'?|- You promise to let me go?

Open the f***in' door!|- See you in the next life.

Son of a b*tch!

Open that f***in' door!

Glad to see me?|I guess we're in the next life.

Don't overreact now.|- Don't overreact.

I won't overreact!|Get over here!

React? You do this again,|I'll throw you off the f***in' train!

It's a bad...

Put your hand in there!|- All right. Easy, Jack.

There!|You son of a b*tch!

You shut up! I'm not talking|to you for the rest of this trip!

Are you guys gonna let me go?|I don't know anything.

Is that a fact?

Sh*t.

Why don't you quit?|Be cheaper for both of us.

Where are they?|- You got me.

Inspector?|- Shut up!

You listen, you son of a b*tch.|I want answers right now!

What do you want?|I don't know nothin'.

It seems that an Agent Alonzo Mosely|and his partner...

were seen hopping a westbound|freight train near Channing.

Come on.

Jack? What?

How much further?|None of your f***in' business!

Eventually I'll have to go|to the bathroom.

Shut the f*** up!

Did you ever have sex with an animal?

Remember those chickens|around the Indian reservation?

There's some good-lookin' chickens.|You know, between us.

There were a couple there|I might have taken a shot at.

What's with you and that watch?

You told me about|your feelings for chickens.

How private could the watch be?

What's the big secret?

Gail bought me this watch.|It was the first thing she ever gave me.

She bought it because I was always late|at least a half an hour.

So she bought it and set it ahead a|half an hour so I'd never be late.

Somewhere in the back of my mind I keep|thinking we'll wind up together again.

I don't know why I'm still hangin' on,|I'm still waitin' around.

I don't think she's comin' back.

I don't either.

Sometimes you just have to let go.

Just get yourself a new watch.

You're okay.

I think under|different circumstances...

you and I...

probably still would've|hated each other.

We probably could've been friends.

In the next life.

Yeah, the next life.

Great.|Accommodations were wonderful.

You got a smoke?|- Don't smoke.

That Fed took my cigarettes.|- You want your cigarettes back?

You'll have to go to Flagstaff|to get 'em...

'cause that's where|your pal Mosely went.

Just might do that.

Where are we?

My guess is Arizona. We've been going|west all night. I think we're near home.

I'm almost dead.

Look, the witness protection program|isn't so bad.

They'll give you a new name,|a new life.

I won't make it|to any witness protection program.

You don't know that.|- I know that, and you know that.

Serrano's gonna get to me before I get|to any witness protection program.

Do me a favor.

Don't pretend you care about me.|It really insults my intelligence.

Let's face it. The only important thing|about me to you is getting your money.

I'm tired of you making me out|to be some thug...

whose only concern|is a big chunk of change.

Did you know Serrano's people|offered me a million bucks for you?

Why don't you go for the big money?|You're doing his work for him anyway.

Working for him... You don't know|what you're talkin' about.

I do this sh*t 'cause I wouldn't work|for that low-life a**hole.

What does that mean?|- Nothing. It doesn't mean anything.

Serrano is the heroin dealer|you told me about in Chicago?

Who owned your buddies and destroyed|your life? That's Serrano?

That's the guy|that you're takin' me in...

That's the guy|that's gonna kill me?

Hope it's a wonderful coffee shop.

Come on, we're gettin' off here.|- What?

We are getting off here,|Mr. Railroad Man. Come on.

What? No! What are you talking about?|Let's discuss this.

Find anything?|- Not yet.

They could've jumped off the train|anywhere along the line.

Trains have regularly scheduled stops.

The reason is 'cause people plan|to get off the trains when they stop.

That's how, generally, people do it.|They don't throw each other off.

That's the purpose of having stops.
