Sally:
I know.

Gillian:
Blood on the moon!

Sally:
I know. Get in the car.

Gillian:
Where's my tiger's eye? It brings me luck. I left it. I got to get my tiger's eye!

Sally:
It's probably in the bag, Gilly! Gillian, come on!

=== INT. CAR NIGHT ===

Jimmy:
You drive.

Jimmy:
You want some? Nope. Hey, Sally, you ever read any books by Louis L'Amour? Okay, Louis L'Amour is a foreigner and he loved all things cowboy. Just like me, Jimmy-boy. So Louis would write stories about rustlers. Rustlers who were really bad guys.

Gillian:
(To Sally)The belladonna is in my bag.

Jimmy:
They would try to steal the cattle. But before they could sell them they would try to take away the brand of the owner with an acid, or by scrubbing. Unfortunately, they could never get rid of it. So they would be caught and get hanged.

Sally:
What are you doing?

Jimmy:
Come on! You can't hide the brand. It's just you and me. (To Sally) Watch the road!

Sally:
Shut up! Rustlers and branding! Louis L'Amour by the way is not a foreigner! He's from Noth Dakota, you a**hole! Jimmy: Watch the road!

Sally:
You're freaking ne out, Dracula freak! Give me the bottle before I plow you into a truck just to get you to shut up!

Jimmy:
Calm down! You know, girls. I'm feeling very into sisters right now.

=== EXT. ROAD NIGHT ===

Jimmy:
(Singing) You were always on my mind, you were always on my mind...

=== INT. CAR NIGHT ===

Gillian:
He should've passed out by now. You don't give him enough?

Sally:
I gave him plenty.

Gillian:
What's he going to do?

Sally:
Just stay calm.

(Jimmy gets into the car)

Jimmy:
(Singing) If I made you feel second best, I'm so sorry, I was blind. you were always on my mind...

Gillian:
Jimmy, please, baby. Come on, baby, I love you.

Jimmy:
I'm sorry, my love. I want to be with you forever.

Gillian:
I love you. Jimmy, please.

Gillian:
Sal, He's out. He's passed out.

Sally:
Oh, God!

Gillian:
Oh, My God! How much did you give him?

Sally:
I don't know, you know, I wasn't using a measuring cup! He tried to kill you!

Gillian:
Come on!

=== EXT. ROAD NIGHT ===

Gillian:
Please, God, if you get us out of this, I'll be good. I'll have babies.

Sally:
I have babies, Gillian. I had normal. And I worked really hard to get that normal.

Gillian:
It's all my fault, Sally. I didn't mean to ruin your life. I just had no one else to turn to.

Sally:
Get in the car. Get in the car. We have to go to the police. It was self-defense.

Gillian:
The old slowly-poison-him-to-death self-defense? Come on, Sally, they're never going to believe us.

Sally:
You really should stop smoking so much.

Gillian:
Why?

Sally:
I'll probably get life. I should smoke two at once. It'll shorten the sentence. I really don't want to lose my children.

Gillian:
I know. I don't want you to either.

Sally:
What are you thinking?

Gillian:
When Muchael died, you asked the aunts to bring him back.

Sally:
But they wouldn't.

Gillian:
Wouldn't. but couldn't.

Sally:
No, They were right. He'd come back as something dark and unnatural.

Gillian:
Jimmy already is dark and unnatural. I don't care what he comes back as.

Sally:
No, that is not an option. That is not a choice.

Gillian:
We don't have a choice, Sally! This is our choice!

=== INT HOUSE NIGHT ===

Sally:
You owe me big-time.

Gillian:
Watch his balls.

Sally:
You watch them

(Jimmy's on the table)

Gillian:
Okay, Jimmy, I will get you out of this but when I do, we are definitely breaking up. It is over.

Sally:
What are you doing?

Gillian:
Nothing.

Sally:
Are you sure you want to do this.

Gillian:
Absolutely.

(They cast spells)

Sally:
"Lips pursed, emit wind over tongue in motion, teeth on edge.

Gillian:
Good enough, good enough.

Sally:
"Touch bounded smudge of blue sage with braided wheat staw. insert needles through eyes of corpse."

Gillian:
Through the eye?

Sally:
n the eye. No way.

Gillian:
I think we should wait for the aunts.

Sally:
It's not like he's going to stay fresh. It's now or never. I need for you to get me something white to write on top of the star. Chop-chop! This is good.

=== INT. BEDROOM MIDNIGHT ===

Gillian:
Wakey-wakey!

Sally:
Midnight margaritas! Come on!

=== INT. KITCHEN MIDNIGHT ===

Aunt Frances:
I see a man in your future and he is gorgeous.

Gillian:
He's big. But you're scared to death and you wind up like a frigid old hag. With your two frigid old hag aunts. I don't know where that came from. That was weird.

Aunt Jet:
She's never been interested in her gifts. She just made that all up.

Aunt Frances:
Don't lie. Gillian has her own magic. And we all know what it is.

Sally:
Oh, please. Since when is being a slut a crime in this family?

Aunt Frances:
What would you know about it?

Aunt Frances:
When we put that spell on you for Michael we had to bind it with molasses just to get your legs to open up.

Gillian:
You self-centered shrew!

Aunt Jet:
Igrate!

Gillian:
Witch!

===INT. BEDROOM MIDNIGHT ===

Aunt Frances:
A lesson they must learn on their own.

Aunt Jet:
What about the little ones?

Aunt Frances:
Not to worry, Jetty. A good piece of Maria's hanging rope will protect them.

Aunt Jet:
You must promise us you won't take them off. Not until we come home.

Aunt Frances:
We'll only be gone a short while.

Aunt Jet:
Do you hear us? Promise?

===INT. PORCH===

Sally:
It was a very personal letter.

Gary Hallet:
Yes, ma'am, it was.

Gillian:
Hello, there.

Gary Hallet:
I'm not going to beat around the bush. I need to find your boyfriend, James Angelvo.

Gillian:
I don't know where he is. I wouldn't exactly call him my boyfriend. He's more like a bug mistake.

Gary Hallet:
Is that his handiwork there?

Gillian:
If a man hits me, he only does it once. Can I take a peek at your

===INT. DOOR MORNING ===

Antonia:
you came for breakfast.

Gary Hallet:
I just came to talk to your mom.

Antonia:
Great! She's having pancakes, too. Do you have a gun? Can I see it? (To Sally) He's here for breakfast.

Gary Hallet:
I have a question or two.

=== INT. KITCHEN MORNING ===

Antonia:
He's going to stay!

Gillian:
Oh, good! Good work. Now go back out there and keep them away from here.

===INT. POACH MORNING ===

Sally:
Berradonna. It's a sedative. People put it in their tea to relax, calm their nerves.

Gary Hallet:
Some people also use it as a poison.

Sally:
Witch people.

Gary Hallet:
Witch people. Witches.

Sally:
I guess you found me out, huh?

Gary Hallet:
Yes, I did.

Sally:
You should come here on Halloween. You'd really see something. We all jump off the roof and fly. We kill our husband too. Or is that outside your jurisdiction?

Gary Hallet:
Do you have any idea how strange this all sounds to me? I got people telling me you're here cooking up placenta bars you're into devil worship.

Sally:
No, there's no devil in the craft.
