My Bloody Valentine Page #3

You sell those mines,

you'll regret the rest of your life, too.

I didn't come here

to talk to you about that.

You have no idea, do you?

This town depends on that mine.

Everyone here,

everyone from the miners

to the cashiers at the grocery store.

That's not my responsibility.

Yes, it is.

You ran away ten years ago,

but the rest of us stayed

to pick up the pieces.

We supported each other.

Don't you remember

how much that mine

used to mean to your family?

I guess not.

Because you just ran away,

and you just keep on running.

It didn't follow you for ten years.

It didn't?

- I faced it.

- I can't.

I wish I could, but I can't.

I lost my way.

Tom, you can go back to that place

where it all went wrong

and find your way again.

Or you can just keep running

the rest of your life.

It's your choice.

What do you got?

I need a signature.

Get this in.

Tom? What the hell you doing here?

Where's Ben? I need to talk to him.

You can't. He's down in the mine.

- I'm going down.

- Like hell you are.

- It's not safe.

- I grew up in these mines, Riggs.

I think I'll be fine.

Who's bleeding the lines on 3?

Red'll take you down.

How's the hand?

Just don't touch anything.

I'll call for Ben.

Yeah. Hey, send Ben to tunnel 3.

He's got a visitor.

What the hell do you mean?

Well, go and get him, then.

Stupid ass.

We'll rescue Trainor down below.

You, venom, and methane in 5, all right?

I know my job, Harry.

Like f*** you do.

I know my job, Harry.

Like f*** you do.

Well, you know what?

You couldn't find

your ass with both hands.

Listen.

Well...

What do you want?

Son of a b*tch!

Guys, trouble on 3.

Red's into it again. Come on, let's go!

Double time!

You're dead, motherf***er.

Red!

Red!

Red?

Jesus Christ.

What you got?

Oh, f***.

Is he dead?

Riggs! Is he dead?

Get me out of here.

- What happened?

- Get me out of here.

Come on.

It's jammed. Give me a hand.

- Got it.

- Get it open.

Get me the f*** out of here.

What'd you do, Tom?

What did you do?

I didn't do anything!

Sh*t.

Happy Valentine's Day.

That's quite the public service, Sarah.

Never one to break tradition, Dr. Miller.

Let me just steal one.

I won't tell if you won't.

Thank you.

Where the hell were you?

I was in tunnel 3.

We found Red.

It was Harry Warden.

Tommy, come on.

He attacked me,

and then I sat there,

and I watched him kill Red.

You know how crazy that sounds?

It's f***ing nuts, okay?

I know that.

But he was there,

and he tried to kill me.

Sir, please, relax.

Okay. You can get

your shirt back on now.

Thank you.

Tommy, exactly what did you see?

What happened to you?

He was attacked.

By who?

Nobody.

Harry Warden.

It happened in the mine.

What were you doing in the mine?

I was gonna tell Ben

that I'm not selling it.

And why the hell not?

You find something in town

that's suddenly worth staying for?

Axel, you were always jealous

of me and Sarah.

You mean my wife Sarah?

Who lives in my house?

Who is mother to my son?

Who I share a bed with

and have sex with?

- Axel, enough!

- That Sarah?

Enough.

- Harry Warden, right? He attacked you.

- Yeah.

Besides the fact that he's been dead

for ten years,

how comes no one else saw him?

I don't know, Sheriff, but I was there.

I saw him.

You know, this town's

in a frenzy because of you.

I'm gonna put an end to that right now.

You want to tell them, or should I?

What the hell are you talkin' about?

Fine. I'll tell 'em, then.

You see, Tom, my dad,

who drank himself to death,

along with your dad and Ben here,

decided to take the law

into their own hands ten years ago.

They killed Harry Warden.

Axel.

And Sheriff Burke covered it up.

We couldn't have the town fathers

on the hook for vigilante justice.

You see, Harry wasn't

buried alive in the mine,

but he's sure as sh*t dead and buried.

And we're gonna lay that to rest.

Aren't we?

Where is it?

I don't know what you think

you're gonna find.

Jim, just show me

where the body's buried,

and we won't have any problems.

Once we find the old escape hatch,

it's just beyond there.

Sheriff, you really think that dangling

a set of decade-old bones

in town square

is gonna clear up these murders?

No, but it'll stop people from thinking

the boogey man is back.

And then I can get on

with my investigation.

Found the hatch.

Yeah. This is where we found him.

Bleeding at the hatch.

Over here.

I found it.

Or what used to be it.

What the hell is this?

Animals must have got at him.

Animals? Was he dead or not

when you buried him?

Damn right he was dead.

There was no pulse.

There was no life

left in him at all, right?

I shot him. I shot

the son of a b*tch dead.

Yeah, we buried him right here.

It was a better burial than he deserved.

And you're sure he was dead, Ben?

There's no way he could be alive.

God damn it.

I want statements from the both of you.

And you, I want you back

at the station now.

We got a dead miner to discuss.

Come on, Sarah.

Come on, gentlemen.

What were you doing at the mine earlier?

I was doing my job.

You're the suspect. Not me.

I didn't kill the guy

in the mine, okay?

I know somebody wants you

to think that I did,

but I didn't.

Relax.

We'll get to that.

So.

Why are you really back in town?

You know why.

No.

I don't know why someone would miss

their own father's funeral,

but show up to sell off his only asset.

Well, I'm not selling the mine.

In fact, I've decided to stay.

And why is that?

You know she settled for you.

Right?

My God.

What did you just say to me?

Sarah settled for...

Stay the f*** away from my wife!

You hear me?

Stay the f*** away from my wife!

Axel! Axel, calm down.

Lock him up, Martin! Lock him up!

I can't do that!

The mine foreman confirmed

that Tom was stuck

in that cage when they came down.

Somebody else was down there.

That's great.

That's f***ing wonderful.

F***!

Won't be long before Axel

locks you up for good.

Just because Axel

wants to think that I did it

doesn't mean that I did.

There was someone else down there.

Yeah. Harry.

- But how? Why?

- I don't know, Ben.

Maybe to finish

what he started ten years ago.

If I were you, Tom,

I'd get the hell out of town.

No. No, I'm not running this time.

I'm gonna find him.

If you don't find him,

I'm betting he finds you.

Or you.

Who is it?

Damn Harry Warden.

Got me aiming at shadows.

Aiming at shadows.

Harry.

It is you.

No. No.

l... l...

No. No.

No. No.

No. No.

No.

Sh*t.

I know the picture's ten years old,

but that's all that we have.

Yeah, I know every store

in the state are selling the candy boxes,

but send Harry Warden's photo anyway.

Who knows? We might get lucky.

How many favors have I done for you?

- Yes.

- Just make this happen.

So what's the problem?

No, no, don't...

don't put me on hold.

This is unbelievable.

Yeah. Well, then, tell him to do it.

I don't care who does it.

Just get it done.
