those pythons without it.

If it's all the same to you

Bob Carter, ...

I'll put my faith in the good Lord

and a little gunpowder.

Rather than in coyotes and

rattlesnakes ...

This place must be crawling with

them.

How are you taking this?

You ok?

I hate it out here.

Just uncomfortable, that's all.

It's more than uncomfortable...

Lynne! Honey! Could you get me my

jacket, please.

What is it?

- Nothing

I don't get it. Why can't we raise

anybody on the CV ...

Here.

Well, it looks to me like these

hills are full of iron.

And if that's the case you're not going

to get a regular signal past them.

Would you hold this please?

I'm going to head North, ...

something on the map looks like

a military installation ...

Ok, fine.

You ought to have a gun too Doug.

We only have two guns, ...

and I think one of them ought

to stay with you guys.

All right Doug. You walk out

6 or 7 miles and get back.

I'll walk out as far as the old

geezers service station ...

You can't get there and back before

dark.

It's only 15 miles back. Sweetheart

I'll get there about sundown.

If the old guy's there,

I'll borrow his pickup.

If he's not there,

I'll borrow his phone.

But, what if the old jerk

doesn't have a phone?

Then I'll hum.

Daddy, don't!

Now look you stay close to the

trailer and don't bust Bobby's chops.

He is in charge.

The creep isn't in charge of me.

Hey, another outburst like that and

I'll confine you to quarters.

All right men let's synchronise

watches.

It's three thirty eight.

If you're not back by midnight, ...

we'll have to board the submarine

with out you.

Can we have a word of prayer first?

Oh, Mother! For crying in a bucket ...

Brenda!

Just to ask the Lord to watch over

us all. Is that too much to ask ...

Bob?

Heavenly Father we ask you to look

over us ... So long ...

See you ...

- Bye ...

Pluto ...

This looks good. Easy pickings now.

Beauty! Come here girl!

Come on Beauty, come on

Beauty ... come on Beauty, come on

Well, at least it's cooler now. Oh,

bring some plates will you Bobby?

Sure.

It is cooler, isn't it?

Oh, yeah, fantastic!

Now we'll all freeze to death.

What a great way to spend the eve of

your 25th Wedding Anniversary.

Frozen French fries.

A huge clump of human French fries

was found stuck to a camper trailer

this morning by...

...by whoever finds us.

Well, it's kind of a pretty place.

There's certainly plenty of sunshine

and fresh air.

Fresh air is unhealthy...

Oh, it's good for you.

Makes me want to puke, if you really

want to know.

It gives me the creeps.

I suppose it's my fault we got lost.

Mamma, don't be ridiculous.

It was Daddy's idea to go looking

for this mine without any help.

We'd be in California now if

we'd stayed on the interstate.

Oh, showers ... and gin and tonics ...

The beach ...

I wonder what's bugging her?

Maybe there's some rattlesnakes

prowling around ...

You know what Freud would say about

your obsession with rattlesnakes Ma ...

I wonder why

the Beast isn't chiming in?

Beast never barks until he's ready

for the kill.

He likes to catch his victims

unawares.

Hey you know you're right. Remember

that poodle he killed in Miami.

Do I!

Boy wasn't that lady ever fit to be

tied.

Was Daddy ever mad. He had to pay

Vet bills for a dead poodle.

All right creep, what's your story?

Hey, don't! Beauty get back here!

Beauty!

Bobby!

Beauty!

Here Beauty, here Beauty. Come here,

come here girl.

Beauty!

Hey pig. Come here! Beauty,

come here.

Beauty!

Beauty! ... Hey girl....

Beauty!

Bobby!

Do you hear him answer?

No.

Bobby! Come down!

Bobby! Come down!

Beauty!

Here...

Oh, thanks. It's dropped 20 degrees

in the last hour.

I thought I ran out.

Hello. Anybody there?

Testing, testing... Maypole, ...

This is Mamma Bear Carter calling.

Do any of you bears

have your ears up?

Gosh, I can't seem to remember

how this works ...

It's mayday Mamma, not maypole ...

Mayday ...

Did you check the battery?

Here, let me. Mayday, mayday,

this is mobile unit 2345 Z 0.

We are stranded and in need of help.

Do you copy?

What in the hell was that?

It sounded like some sort of animal.

Yeah well, if animals 'round here

are smart enough to run radios,

we're up sh*t creek without a paddle.

You know you never used

language like that ...

before you moved to New York City.

Where's Bobby and the men, anyway?

Brenda!

Brenda!

Bobby!

Beast come back here, ...

Beast!

Bobby!

Brenda! You there?

Just a minute Lynne.

Bobby!

Bobby!

How does this damn thing work

anyway?

Bobby!

Bobby!

Where have you been?

Bobby your face, what happened?

Bobby?

Get your stupid neck out

of that belt you jackass.

I'd a left you hanging there

if you took a shot at me.

Not until you tell me what the hell

is going on.

You're trespassing. That's what.

Give me that!

You always try to stop trespassers

by hanging yourself?

I thought you were somebody else.

How's your family?

Well the car skidded off the road

and we broke an axle.

They're back at the trailer.

They're all ok.

Like hell! Give me that booze.

There's something

you should know about.

Yeah, well, what is it?

Come on Beast.

Are Daddy and Doug back yet?

Not yet. Didn't you find Beauty?

She must have run off.

Give me that!

Come here!

Bobby ...

- Good Lord. How are you? ...

Back in '29,

this place was spanking new.

Me and my wife Martha had ...

a baby so cuddly and so pretty

we couldn't believe.

And another kid on the way.

But when Martha had this one.

Something went wrong.

This thing she gave me... Something

happened... He was so big.

He came out sideways and almost tore

poor Martha apart.

He weighed 20 pounds and

was hairy as a monkey.

When he was 10 years old,

he was big as I was.

Accidents would happen all the time.

Dogs falling into wells.

I even found chickens with their

heads bitten off.

Then in August of '39, I was in town

getting supplies.

The whole damn house burned

to the ground.

My little baby girl was a cinder

when I found her.

But this monster kid wasn't even

singed. I knew he'd done it.

I hit him with a tyre iron and

I split his face wide open.

How bad was it?

I thought I'd killed him. I was afraid

they'd come and take me away.

So I took him out on that desert and

I left him there.

I figured if he wasn't dead,

he couldn't live more than two hours

out there in that heat.

Then it would all be over with.

And you think his ghost is still

trying to track you?

That was a long time ago.

Long enough for him to steal a whore

that nobody would miss.

Long enough to raise a pack

of wild kids.

Long enough for a devil kid

to grow up and be a devil man.

What the hell is this?

That's some stuff ...

You want some cheese on this?

There's plenty left.

I don't want anything.

What's the matter?

Don't you feel well?

I'm just not hungry.

Your face still bothering you?

No. Did anybody try the CV while

I was gone?
