Where is she?

Where the hell were you?!

Off raiding some pharmacy chain?

- Where is she, Alan?

- She doesn't want to talk to you.

Sarah?

- Sarah?

- No, don't listen to him!

- Sarah!

- Sarah! I'm sorry!

What I said--

I was confused.

- I'm sorry.

- I had to go.

I thought that...

you didn't want me here

anymore.

But then, I found one.

I guess you've learned

the same lessons I have.

I started this tape to teach you

about decent behavior,

but the truth is,

I was happier back then.

You saw what happened.

These people moved in,

and they ruined everything!

They screwed around with my emotions,

like I was nothing.

You can't manipulate

someone like that.

And if that's what it's going

to be like living together,

I'll just go it alone.

They can move out and

build their own f***ing camp,

or I'll break his goddamn neck--

I don't care how tough he is.

New rule:

be true to yourself.

Get out of there,

you son of a b*tch!

This is my trailer.

I want you out of there.

I want both of you out of here.

This is my camp.

You can go build your own,

or go live in the f***ing city.

- Piss off.

- What?!

Where do you get the audacity

to talk to me like that?

You come in here and

you f*** everything up--

Let me tell you something,

just once.

You're going to get out.

Get into your car

and drive away real quick.

Or I'll kick your ass

right back down to the highway.

Sarah:
Forget it.

Just let it go, Raphael.

Sure! Sure!

Why don't all the beautiful people

just stick together

and f*** over everybody else?!

So you can stare at yourselves

and get off on how much better

you are than everybody else!?

It's over.

We know about you.

We watched the tape.

You're a sick motherf***er,

spying on us and twisting

everything around

in your little Chetabi

fantasy land.

Do you really think

that makes you better than us?

You're such a loser.

Now, get

the hell out of here.

Goodbye, Alan.

The Chetabi have a word for members

of the tribe who don't belong--

Kirosu.

These are people

who take advantage of others,

who don't mend their ways.

So, one morning...

they're just gone.

No one ever asks

any questions.

It's really very civilized.

I was wrong.

Violence isn't caused

by hate and envy.

It's caused

by these kinds of people--

people who aren't decent,

who corrupt innocent people.

The Chetabi say you have to cut away

the bad leaves to save the plant,

and I can't let these kinds

of people ruin the world again.

This isn't what I wanted,

but there's no other way.

I'll save

who walks this Earth

To give to you from birth

All the love our Father

felt for us on high

Now you dare

to speak His name

In tongues of fire

and shame

Repent, my friend,

or you will burn in hell

Your life is but the thing

which loving Jesus brings

And there will not be

a time after today

Come over here and bow

Get on your knees,

bow down...

I'm sorry

it had to be this way.

Sh*t!

Let's go.

...Without Jesus,

they will surely burn in hell

Your life is but the thing

which loving Jesus brings

And there will not be

a time after today...

Okay, I was a little hot

under the collar.

I'm not perfect.

So, I didn't kill them.

But I scared them like hell.

The Chetabi say

that a man is not a man

until he faces his own--

no, himself, his own face...

something like that.

Well...

that's all I have to offer.

I'm leaving this tape

at the supermarket,

next to the peanut butter

with the jelly already in it...

because everyone

is curious about that.

You'll wander over here eventually,

and you'll find it.

As for me,

I'm heading south.

The Chetabi are known to eat

a lot of leafy green vegetables,

and that stuff

is loaded with zinc.

So, maybe if they survived,

they'll let me hang around

and shoot the bull awhile.

I was trying to think of

a helpful way to finish this thing.

And I guess I realized...

life's a b*tch, you know?

You've just got to try

to set some limits.

So...

be decent to each other.

That's the final thought.

And...

try to respect

each other's privacy.

That's something new

that we could add.

So those two things,

limits and privacy...

and... goodbye.

Aw, who am I kidding?

What the f*** do I know?

Damn old blues

Send me out to drink

Before the evening's through

You show up

I can't think

Everywhere I turn

You come into view

This world ain't big enough

For me and you

I'd drive 1 0,000 miles

If I thought

I could get away

But your memory

would follow me

Down every lonesome

and dark highway

Everywhere I go

The same old thing rings true

This world ain't big enough

For me and you

No, this world

ain't big enough

To disappear

when you're in love

You keep haunting

everything I do

Maybe someday,

we'll lose touch

I'll run so fast,

you can't keep up

This world ain't big enough

For me and you

Oooh yeah, yeah

Now this ain't some picnic

Near some shady tree

I can't shake

no peaches, baby

When you got

your little eye on me

Hearing everything I say

And watching what I do

This world ain't big enough

For me and you

No, this world

ain't big enough

To disappear

when you're in love

You keep haunting

every little thing I do

Maybe someday,

we'll lose touch

Yeah, I'll run so fast,

you can't keep up

This world ain't big enough

For me and you

Yeah, I cry

I'm going to survive

There just ain't no place

to run and hide

The world ain't big enough

For me and you

You know itjust ain't

big enough, darling.
