You're panting.

Richie better not

show up now, dude.

This little caper of ours is

not something he would like.

They're shipping a lot of sh*t

here without him knowing.

He likes to be in the know.

It seems very shady.

Connor.

Alright, not too

much cutting, ash.

Hurry up.

I'm serious.

She's a beauty.

We need to go.

Let's get this stuff.

Ash, let's go.

All the peanuts.

All of them.

Pick them up.

- Ash!

- Sh*t.

He's here.

Alright, come on.

Wanna go have breakfast?

Let's go have breakfast.

Oh!

Alright, okay.

Let's go in the shop.

What, you don't

wanna go in the shop?

Come on, come on.

We gotta go to work.

Come on.

You happy now?

Oh.

Ash.

Hey, put that away.

Dude.

Calm down.

Ash, that's something

I would say.

You don't get to talk like me.

Will you shut up?

What?

No. No, Connor.

I'm putting this away

because it's the right

thing to do, not

because you told me to.

- Okay?

- Let's go.

Ash.

Jesus.

I don't understand.

Why are there so many?

Ash, what do we get?

I don't know.

You're the mechanic.

You should know.

You know mechanic is not the

same thing as being a maid, ash.

Check this out.

Whoa.

Everything alright back there?

Oh, Connor.

So boys, what have we learned?

Leave ash at home.

Yup.

And if you wanna topple

a mountain, go for my

selection of spray

breeze in aisle five.

Will do.

Good luck.

Whatever you're up to.

I'll give you five minutes, ash.

Seriously?

Hey!

So, where you off to?

Going to clean out

my dad's trailer.

Where are you guys going?

Whoa, you're going

somewhere to clean?

- Yeah.

- Oh yeah.

Ash, uh...

Ash is into that kinda thing.

You know, he's into maids.

Oh my.

That's not...

He's joking, he's joking.

I get it, I get it, ash.

Connor, what'd you

get on that bio final?

Nice.

Oh, didn't know

you guys were pals.

A lot of things about

me you don't know.

Oh, really?

So where are you guys going?

Uh, we're gonna...

What's in the bag?

A gun.

No sh*t.

Cleaning supplies, too.

It's not a real gun, also.

Cleaning supplies and a gun?

Wow.

What are you guys

like an amateur...

What are they called, Sam?

Clean-up men.

Like for crime scenes.

Amateur clean-up men

for a crime scene.

I wanna see this gun, Connor.

Yeah, we probably

shouldn't be bringing that

out here, you know?

Lot of cops in this town.

Wouldn't wanna get shot.

Connor.

It's a paintball gun.

What's a paintball gun?

It shoots balls of paint.

Oh.

Yeah, Emma.

You should know this.

Dudes, don't gang

up on my friend.

Geez, you're difficult.

Excuse me?

He's kinda right.

Whoa, there!

I'm just saying.

So, where are you guys going?

Uh, we're gonna bike

along the river trail.

I forget what it's called.

The Sopes river valley trail.

That.

Ash, can we leave?

Well, so quickly Connor

has lost interest.

Yup.

Alright, have fun on your bikes.

See ya, Emma.

- Later.

- Bye, boys.

Unless you guys wanna come

clean out the trailer with us.

We're good.

Why the f*** was

Kaufmann in there?

He wasn't supposed

to f***ing be here.

We weren't supposed to pull

our f***ing guns, Charlie.

Since when does Kaufmann

carry a f***ing piece?

What the f*** is he doing?

He's got the keys!

Oh, god damnit, Cody!

Oh man!

Come on.

Look out, look out.

Motherfuckers!

Goddamn you!

Motherfuckers!

I've been doing some

thinking, ash.

Why is it I'm always doing

your chores for you?

I don't think that's fair.

Connor, you practically

live at my house.

So you're saying I owe you?

Yeah.

I don't know.

Talk to my dad.

I think it's my duty.

I can't leave you two alone.

So, how were the championships?

They weren't championships.

Also, that is really stupid.

They weren't championships.

But did you win?

Yeah.

You never seize

to amaze me, ash.

Sometimes I think you're uh...

Mentally challenged.

I think I'm doing quite a

noble thing being your friend,

you know?

It's a lot of Patience.

I'm Lenny?

I'm Lenny, you're George?

Why is your dad so against guns?

I don't know.

I guess he's seen

what a gun can do.

Was he in the army?

I seriously doubt that.

You're saying he's a softie?

Yeah.

He so isn't.

God damnit, why did they

pack these like this?

I mean, they're

all over the place.

I mean, I don't really

consider myself a gun guy,

but what's not to like here?

Say hello to my little friend.

Do you even know

what that's from?

Die hard?

Where the f*** did

that come from?

I don't know.

It was a personal shot.

Goddamn, he's crazy, man.

He was out of his mind.

Just breathe.

Breathe, breathe, breathe.

You gotta pull over.

No, just keep going.

Keep going.

Come... come on, Mikey.

That's it.

Come on, Cody.

Come on.

You are gonna be alright, Cody.

Jesus, none of us knew it'd

have to be our getaway.

We were supposed to be

in and out of there.

Nobody expected we'd have

to shoot our way out.

Since when does Kaufmann

carry a f***ing piece?

He's always the guy

without the gun.

Let's everybody else

do his dirty work.

Finally came to his senses.

Yeah.

Yeah, oh!

Guess what?

What?

Oh sh*t.

This old man's watch.

You know he's too afraid

to wear it anymore, but I

know where he keeps it.

I took more than a f***ing

bullet from that a**hole.

You sure did.

How we doing on gas, Cody?

Full.

K, good, good, good.

That's enough to get

us where we're going.

I hope so.

When you gonna tell us where

that is exactly, Charlie?

I'll tell us when

we get closer, Cody.

Is that a problem?

Don't you think you gotta tell

us sooner rather than later?

Cody.

What?

I'm gonna tell you when

I start to f***ing die.

What do you think of that, Cody?

Unless you're still acting

like a f***ing dick.

I can't believe I

killed that kid.

What?

He wasn't a kid.

He was a seventeen-year-old

kid, alright? And I shot him.

What, you shot someone?

Yeah, who's blood do you think

is all over me, Charlie?

F***ing news to me, man,

and I don't like it.

He's overreacting.

He wasn't a kid.

He was there to

pick up the case.

Some guy that Kaufmann hired.

It was either you or him.

Whatever it was, it's been

a long time, alright?

Still feels like sh*t.

Well, listen.

Whatever happened back there,

it's what had to happen.

End of story.

And the whole job went to sh*t.

Yeah.

I've never seen

Kaufmann so pissed.

I mean, he-he-he...

He was mad.

No sh*t.

No, I mean, he was

gonna shoot all of us.

He was gonna kill us.

Kaufmann, Kaufmann

was gonna kill us.

Dutch, please.

F*** you.

You two have no heart.

I should've killed that

f*** when I had the chance.

I'd like nothing better than to

shut that little prick up.

Passions are high.

- Charlie.

- Yeah.

Charlie.

If you two hadn't abandoned me,

it might have gone

differently in there.

What?

F*** you say?

You heard me.

No, no.

I wanna hear that again.

What the f*** did you say?

That's not fair.

Listen, man, if you hadn't

started shooting, we might

be in a very

different situation.

That's right.
