Oh, sweet Jesus!

This is the boarding call...

Right through,

On the mat, please.

Arms straight out.

That's it, thank you.

Huh.

Uh...

in your butt, sir?

Yeah. A bullet.

It's permanently

lodged in my ass

I'm gonna have to ask you

to step behind the screen, please, sir.

- Don't worry.

I am never going

past this point.

See what you done?

I can't even leave town now.

Sorry.

Well, I guess

I should get going.

You say goodbye to your beautiful

little ballerina for me.

Mmm. Tell yours

I said hello too.

Oh.

- Well...

- Whoa whoa, hey hey!

- Let's not and say we did.

- Okie-doke.

Told you I never met anyone

I wasn't friends with eventually.

Bye, Vann.

Andy.

- Cavity search team?

- Yes, sir.

Where the hell

Guy's getting away.

Grey plaid suit,

brown bag.

Hurry!

Sir! Excuse me, sir!

Sir! Excuse me, sir!

# All right... #

Yeah yeah, we, uh, need

to perform a cavity search, please.

- What? What?

- Yeah, just this way.

Who's my b*tch?

- Uh, it'll just take a few minutes.

- I have done nothing wrong!
