Road to Paloma Page #2

the little you got

Four big wheels,

American steel

Pouring gasoline

on a killing field

March them soldiers

down that line

March them boys

in straight time

Good four boys

like feel on the fire

Bad news coming

by the AP wire

Dance and turn,

till your fingers burn

What, if anything,

do you think you earn?

How many do I have to do?

Ah!

Wolf!

You come to take me away?

Wolf needs a woman

that can cook, not eat.

What did you say?

You stay away from my husband.

Hey, man, where you going?

- This is your job.

- What's that?

Entertain the ladies.

Ooh.

Join us.

He'! '

I love you.

Jesus Christ.

Have a bite.

It's good stuff.

I'm good, bud.

It's all you.

What do you mean you're good?

Come on, have some waffles.

It's all you.

There you go.

- You don't want any?

- No.

- You're sure?

- I'm positive.

All right.

Can I borrow some cash?

Well, I'm a little short,

so you're gonna have to get this one.

Christ, Wolf.

I don't have any money for this.

What?

- Let's get the hell out of here.

- Dude, we can't walk out.

You guys don't have

any money, do you?

You mean American money?

That's really cute.

I'm gonna call the police.

How about that, okay?

Listen, hey, I', s...

we can work something out, okay?

Please?

Dude, I didn't follow you

to do charity work.

I didn't ask you to follow me.

I got to make money.

And not the f***ing hard way.

Hey, whoa, whoa.

Whoa, excuse me.

Where you going?

I'm going to take a piss, Todd.

You got an itch to hold it?

You know what? I gave you a break

and let you try to work off your debt.

Shut up.

I don't need to be disrespected

by either one of you guys.

Hey, man, he's not my buddy, okay?

I'm sorry.

I'm gonna do the dishes.

I'm almost done, okay?

I apologize. He's an a**hole.

Just finish up and please

don't come back here anymore.

Hey, sorry, man.

That guy's a f***ing a**hole.

You want to make

some quick money?

F***, yeah.

There ain't no use

for the slow man

He's a drunk and he is cruel,

but he's a cold man

He'll paint your noose

like an omen

He's got you thinking about

your death and you are frightened

Ain't no use for the slow man

He's a drunk and he is cruel,

but he's a cold man

He'll paint your noose

like an omen

He's got you thinking about

your death and you are frightened...

You can't refuse

what the old man

Whispered to the preacher

during the sermon

He's a saint to the fools

of the old land

But we can see straight

through the tricks that he is turning

He'll speak

but you got to believe

There's only trouble

creeping through those teeth...

You got big f***ing balls

showing up here.

That information I gave you

cost me some business.

Tribal cops knocking on my door.

You know that wasn't my intent.

What just happened?

It's payday.

Like to fight?

Let's make some money off of it.

God damn, you're a big Indian.

Come on.

Sh*t.

He f***ing won.

Give me my money, brother.

Better get out

of town, white boy.

- Thank you.

- Get out of here.

Get the f*** out of here.

Get the f*** out of here.

Well, hell's bells

What you trying to sell?

Put it on the table

before they take you to jail

What do you say?

Got a bottle to your head

And you never saw it coming

And your pretty white shirt

is red

Well, I guess

that's what you get

When you were leaning on me,

I heard you asking for it

Did you not come here

looking for a fight?

They say brown liquor

make you sleep all right

Cocaine make you grind

your teeth all night...

Run in here and get some smokes.

You want anything?

No, I'm good.

Hey, Mr. Kemp.

How you doing?

I need some

Marlboro Reds, please.

I knew it.

- What do you want?

- That him?

Oh, yeah.

Hey, Numay.

Hold up a sec.

Numay's Mojave

for mountain lion.

You know, it means

"don't f*** with me."

How you doing?

Numay, good to see you.

- This is...

- Agent Williams, "Numy."

It's Numay.

- I heard you were in town.

- Did you, now?

It seems any time a rape occurs

on the reservation,

you guys

are nowhere to be found.

But a white man's murdered

and it's call out the cavalry.

You know, he's...

he's got a point there.

Look, we're getting off on

the wrong foot here, Numay.

We just want to find Wolf.

We want to keep him safe.

You know where he's at?

No.

We're getting calls every five minutes.

I know he's in town.

You know he and I

don't see eye to eye.

Yeah.

Well, I guess that doesn't surprise me

seeing as you're a lawman

and he's a wanted fugitive.

Mr. Williams, my wife

was raped and beaten in our home.

I abided by the law.

I arrested him.

And you see where that got me.

Well, I deeply sympathize

with your family's loss,

but you can't go around taking the law

into your own hands, now, can you?

So why don't you and I

stop wasting each other's time

and you tell me

where he's going?

Unfortunately,

glory cases

are not my department.

- That a '56?

- '55.

Looks good.

Better when she runs.

What's wrong with her?

Radiator's shot.

I can help.

I can handle it.

Oh, f***.

Still want to help?

Come on, is that all you got?

Almost.

- Thanks, Bob.

- Nice to meet you, Cash.

Good luck.

Thank you.

- We did it.

- You did it.

- Wolf.

- Wolf. I like that, Wolf.

Um, Magdalena.

Magdalena.

Um...

so I have another

favor to ask you.

What?

I live about a mile

down the road.

I could obviously use a ride.

- Would you?

- Love to.

Great.

I'll grab my stuff.

You know how hard it is

to sell a house in today's market?

- Hard.

- Very hard.

Especially when it's been trashed.

This is why we're not

together anymore, Cash.

You sabotage everything.

Seriously, you're like a child.

I've got potential buyers

standing there with me

and I look like an a**hole.

Now, would you rather

file for bankruptcy?

Because that's the only option

you're leaving me with.

Just sell

the f***ing house, Linda.

Can't believe it.

Fill my lungs

with something sweet

Fill my veins with something

that stings

Come over here, baby

And give me some loving

To ease this pain...

Oh, your own place.

- This is it.

- It's cute.

Yeah.

- I'm freezing.

- I bet you are.

Can I get you anything?

I am good.

I can head back and fix

your car for you.

Thank you.

- It's beautiful.

- Yeah.

It's home.

So, where you riding to next?

Up north country.

Oh, yeah?

What's up there?

There's this lake.

I want to spread

my mom's ashes there.

She passed a couple months ago.

I'm sorry.

Smell.

It's pretty-

Yeah.

It's beautiful.

So what about you?

What about me?

I don't think I've smiled

this much in a long time.

My face hurts.

Sorry.

What are we gonna do with these?

What shall we do with those?

What are you gonna make me?

We can squeeze 'em.

Let's go squeeze some oranges.

Sounds like a plan.

I need a drink.

Let's have a drink first.

Well, the sun's gone down

And you're uptown

And you're just out

Running around

I can't hardly stand it

You're troubling me

I can't hardly stand it
