with a f***in' trunk load

of garbage.

Its f***in' cans of beef.

It's f***in' garbage.

- Well, we make savings.

- Oh, yeah, what good

are savings 6 feet under

with some

like dumb-f*** bacteria, huh?

- Come on.

- Austin?

Come here.

We gotta take a bath.

We gotta take a bath.

- Can you take her

for one second?

Thank you. I just

gotta get these tarts out.

We're not really having

anything too fancy

'cause you can't really

do that with kids, but..

...you've got so much

Patience for that.

God! I can barely

handle it, you know.

It's just like one... Kid

after the other.

I don't know what to say.

I just get pregnant so easy.

Kayla, are you being good?

Is she being good?

- Oh, they're very sweet.

- She is very sweet.

He can be kind of an a**hole.

- Chip?

- Hey, you mind takin' these

out to Joe

and just see

if he's started the grill?

- Sure.

- Can you handle that and her?

- Thank you.

- We'll go outside?

- Hmm-mm.

- I cannot believe

you found work around here.

Do you know, everybody's lookin',

no one can find anything.

And you just roll in..

And I thought you were just

a tourist passing through.

What are we gonna have now

a French sister-in-law

'cause that'd be funny.

That'd be a funny thing.

- You gotta clean that dumb-sh*t

out of your conversation, Billie

'cause it sure is

buggin' us around here.

- Okay, Joe.

Then you make conversation

if you're so good at it.

Well, look what happens

when I don't talk. Nobody talks.

- Why does Diego

cough like that?

- I don't know. I mean,

I think he's been doing it

ever since he came back from the war.

I mean, that's what Joe told me.

He said that,

it left him real broke up

I mean, I've only know him

5 years since I've been with Joe

but it's been like that

the whole time.

So it's gettin' real serious

with you two?

- I don't know.

- Hey, Billie,

quit telling your last story

and come out here and show me

your cheerleader routine.

- Oh, my god!

- You make a really

pretty cheerleader.

- I haven't done it in ages.

I don't want anyone judging me.

- Okay.

Woo!

Go team!

Woo! Woo. Whoo!

- Higher. Higher.

- Woo! Woo!

Woo-hoo!

- Stop!

Stop! What are you doing?

Do you wanna lose your baby?

- Hey, chill out.

We're just having fun.

What the f***'s wrong with her?

- You really are a couple of fools,

you know that.

- Ow.

- I got to you..

- I didn't do a good job.

- You did a great job.

- Are you alright?

- I'm sorry.

- That's alright.

They're idiots anyway.

You know how many people die

of thirst, crossin' the border every year?

Go ahead, pick a number.

- What, Mexicans?

I don't know.

A hundred?

- Way more.

Not just Mexicans either.

If anybody sees me do this,

I'm gonna lose my job.

- Hey.

- Don't.

- Why can't you just accept

what's happening to us?

- Is that sex?

I buy that.

I told you that from the start.

I thought maybe we had a chance

'cause you wanted the same things.

You lied to me,

I didn't lie to you.

- Lied to you?

I didn't lie to you.

- I ain't in love with you.

- I don't believe you.

- Just doesn't make sense,

that's all.

- Life doesn't have

to make sense.

What's wrong with you?

- I'm gonna go for a drive.

While I'm away, you get in there

and you pack your sh*t

and you get the f*** out!

- You're right.

A guy like you is not worth it

for more than a week anyways.

- Do you even have a place

to sleep tonight?

Mickey?

Go clean up your den

'cause she's gonna need

a bed tonight.

You know where we keep

the clean sheets.

- I... I think so.

- Thanks.

- You bet.

- Listen, I don't mind

helping you and stuff, but, um..

...it's a temporary thing,

right?

- Of course.

I really appreciate it.

- Alright.

- Here are your coffees.

- Thank you very much.

- I'll be right back

to take your order.

- Would you like milk?

- Yes, please.

- Thank you.

- Alright. Do you know

what you'd like?

- Yes, I'll have

a sandwich, please.

- Uh, would you like

rye pumpernickel, white

or sourdough?

Wheat.

How about cheese?

- No cheese.

- And if you'd like

for dessert..

...we have homemade

French apple tart.

- Well, let's go.

Well, you can stay as long

as you like.

- Are you sure it's no problem?

- If you don't treat us like

Indians can see in the dark

speak to damselflies

and make their life choices

based on the shape

of their clads

we should be fine.

- I'm gonna bless you

with Sage and I smudge you off

so..

...you can continue on your

journey of what you're doing.

Okay.

Your new name will be sky.

Mapiya, like the sky.

- Mapiya. Sky.

- Mapiya.

- I like that.

- Yeah.

- I gotta tell you something

that my grandma told me

yesterday about you.

She told me, um,

you're expecting a child

and, uh,

it's gonna be a little boy.

- I can't have babies.

My body rejects them.

- I've had four.

- DNC

or spontaneous miscarriage?

- DNC once.

- And the three other times

it just happened.

- You're not bleeding?

- No.

- Well, your pregnancy's

off to a good start.

So don't go on

fearing another disaster.

That'd be a shame.

Make sure the father

to be pampers you.

- Then you'll be fine.

- Thank you.

- Hey.

- Hi.

- Saw Diego's truck last night,

here?

- He's in the bathroom.

He's not doing too good.

- Are you okay?

Come on.

- My body's sick, Romy.

It was poison.

- I'm broken

like you said I was.

I could light up a whole town

with the..

...amount of ray in my gut.

This is the payoff from..

...depleted uranium is..

..When it hits a target

and you..

...you breathe it in..

...right here.

It gets in your blood

and your lungs.

You fell for a guy

that's gonna die.

- I can't even

make love to you anymore.

- Do you remember

when we made love

for the first time in Vegas?

Afterwards I went walking

outside in the sunshine

and..

...i saw my shadow.

And next to my big shadow

there was... A small shadow.

Like a child.

And I was holding hands

with the child.

And Missy,

she told her grandmother.

And she said it means

that I will have a child.

And it's true.

I went to the doctor

and it's true.

Are you okay?

- You gotta get rid of it,

rabbit.

- I'm not afraid

to have this child.

- Actually, yeah.

Let's keep it.

It might be nice..

...have a little baby

with a eyeball

in the middle of his forehead.

Or maybe a baby

born with no arms.

Maybe he'll be born

with leukemia.

A nice little cancer

his dad gave him.

Someone he's never

ever gonna meet.

- Stop it!

- No, you stop it!

You wouldn't even hold this baby

in your arms.

That's how much you like it!

You'd think it was ugly.

You'd feel so bad about yourself

for being such

a selfish b*tch that you...

- stop it!

- You piss me off with

your little f***ing angel eyes

you know that?

Get rid of it.

- I don't know what to do.

- You can't change

what happened.

It's all meant to be.

But you've been given

a beautiful, beautiful life

to take on.

So don't, don't cry.

I will be here for you.
