The Breaking Point Page #7
just the way I wanted it.
I couldn't make a mistake...
I was like that.
I was 8 feet tall...all the time.
Not anymore.
You in trouble?
Up to my eyes, I'm in trouble.
Whatever it is, let it go.
I got no choice...
All I got left to peddle, is guts.
I'm not sure I got any...
I have to find out.
Anyhow...don't blame yourself
for this.
Goodbye, Leona.
Tell me something...it sounds silly,
but there's a reason...
Have you got any moles?
Eh?
Moles...Have you got any?
Everybody's got moles.
I would've bust out laughing!
I keep thinking about tomorrow.
What will happen tomorrow?
The only way,
is to figure it out.
All the way.
When they get there...
they have to force me to go.
They have to force me to go.
There'll be a reward.
I'll do what Lucy wants...
I'm doin' it for HER.
And the reward.
I have to do it alone.
Better alone.
That's it then...I'm doing it for Lucy...
and the reward.
Why didn't you wake me?
You were so restless last night...
I thought you'd want to sleep.
I've got some work to do
on the boat.
Oh, why don't you stay home today...
We can go to the beach...
the kids are down there already.
Some people are coming
to look at the boat.
What for?
To buy me...shut that off.
You're going to sell the boat?
Yeah...
The house too...everything...
We'll go some place
and start all over.
There'll be no more of that.
You'd sell the "Sea Queen" for ME?
I been thinkin' about it.
We can go to 'Frisco...like we used to
in the old days.
Remember that hotel?
We'll go there.
Maybe...it all depends.
What time is it?
A little after 11...I guess you're in a hurry...
I'll fix you something to eat.
Coffee...just coffee.
What's that for?
What's that for?
I don't want you to know about it...
...Any part of it.
If it comes out all right...
I'll tell you about it some time.
Supposing it doesn't come out?
Then...you'll hear about it.
You'll hear about it, all right.
What are you up to?
Harry...you have to think of me
and the kids!
You have to do right.
I'm DOING right!
You've got to listen to me...
I have...I heard everything
you ever told me...
"Get into a different business", you said.
Well, this is my business...
this is what I'm good at!
It's a job...like any other job.
I did worse in the Philippines.
I got a medal for it.
This is different.
I'm doing it for us.
Not if you have to take a gun with you,
you're not.
I'm careful, that's all...
A gun doesn't mean anything,
unless it goes off.
A got a right to be careful.
I know you...
You've got that stubborn
stupid look on your face...
...you always get when you're gonna
do something you know isn't right.
But you're gonna do it anyway,
'coz that's the way you are.
But don't tell me it's for us...
Just don't give me that...
I'll never say yes to that.
I'm just tryin' to get a little ahead, see...
I'm way behind!
This is the only way out...the only way!
After it's over, we'll sell the boat, go to Frisco,
do anything you want...anything!
I don't want you to get into trouble...
That's what I want!
It won't be anything I can't handle.
I have to go now.
Lucy...I have to go.
Go on...you won't listen to me...
Go on then!
I may be gone a couple of days...
I left some money for you.
On the dresser...enough to make it
all right when I'm gone.
I won't be here
when you get back.
I've had enough...
More than enough.
I've done everything I could
to keep us together.
But you don't want it like that.
You act like you're all alone.
You've been like that ever since
you came back from Mexico.
What's this you're doing now...
Same thing all over again...
Go on then...This time I won't be here
when you get back.
Me or the kids.
If that's the way you want it...
alright.
Wait! Wait!
Operator!
Make him take it easy...
We don't want no tickets.
Hey, Harry!
Thought I'd come down and see
if there's any chance there's something doing .
No I can't get a party...
I would've called you if I had anything...
you know that.
I was hoping.
My old woman is sick of having me
around the house, she said.
Why don't you smack her?
You smack her, and see what happens.
I don't want to hold you up...
I know you've got other things to do...
I got nothin' else to do...
You know that.
I been meaning to varnish that panel
Good time to do it.
No sense in varnishing today...
I have to work on the engine.
What's the matter with it?
Oh...the plugs...
On the port side...
I think they're cooked.
No...I checked the plugs
a couple of days ago.
They're fine.
I say we need plugs.
OK...OK!
Let's fire 'em and find out.
There's nothing wrong with those plugs.
Well we better have some,
just the same.
Go down to Porter's hardware store
and get 6 of 'em.
What's the matter with you?
You act like you trying
to get rid of me.
Where's the boat?
There it is, you fool.
- That ain't the boat!
- That's the captain, come on.
What's this all about?
Do what I tell you...
come on...get out of here!
Get outta here!
OK...c'mon...c'mon...get goin'!
Get that rope off!
C'mon...c'mon...Make it fast!
Let's go, Cappy!
Don't do it, Harry!
Let's go, Cappy!
Let's go, I said!
C'mon...go faster...
Make some time!
He's gotta go slow in the channel...
Otherwise they'll come after him.
crawlin' like this?
Lie down there, flat...all of you.
Go on!
I'll keep Cappy covered.
What's the matter, Cappy...
You lost your nerve?
It's a friend of yours!
I didn't think of that.
Not at all.
What's that for?
What are you doin' that for?
He always waves...
And I always wave back.
Next is the Coast Guard.
- That's when you sweat, you cruds.
- Wipe your mouth!
You watch it!
You're workin' yourself up
into somethin' Cappy...
Don't get any ideas!
You yell at that Coast Guard
and you get yours right now...
And a couple of those Coast Guard boys
go with you.
So think it over.
What can that Coast Guard cutter do?
Twenty...maybe more.
They go 20...can you lose them
in this tramp?
They won't care long.
Here, we're going to the other side of Catalina Island...
way out to where its marked.
Hold this wheel steady, will you.
Do you think they can catch us now?
- Plane.
- It'll soon be dark.
Ever hear of radar?
That's why we're going to
the other side of Catalina Island.
By the time they figure out how
we got away, we'll be gone, right?
What do you think?
Course is 120.
He said, what do you think
our chances are?
He's sore about his friend.
What did you kill him for?
I'm sorry...You don't know
how badly I feel about it now.
I got excited.
Don't let him kid you...
When it's your turn to go...
Go on and watch for the Coast Guard, bigmouth!
Here...take the wheel...
I have to check the motors.
Go on...it's just like a car.
Just steer it...
