The Marine 3: Homefront Page #2

---

You can have that chat tomorrow.

She'd love to give you her thoughts

on higher education.

Christ, Amanda.

She's gotta do something with herself.

Have you even talked to her about...?

Enough, Jake. I'm tired.

I just want to relax.

Okay.

Bye.

I'll see you guys later.

Where you going?

Out.

Darren's waiting.

Darren?

Darren Carlyle. Miller's kid.

You remember him.

I remember not liking him.

Jake, relax. Please. He's a good guy.

He's not some idiot

like the rest of the losers around here.

Didn't he go to juvie for selling weed?

Years ago.

I...

...love you.

So much.

Bye.

You're real subtle.

It's a gift.

Hey, baby.

Hey, you.

Come here.

Mm.

Wow. You look nice.

Thanks.

I noticed your brother's back.

Yep.

He still got a stick up his ass?

Yep.

He never liked me much anyways.

Let's just go.

Hey, Darren, come on in for a sec.

Have a beer or something.

Um...

Jake, you're not my dad. Okay?

Roger that?

Let's go. Now.

Go. Come on. Please. Drive.

Come on. Let's go. Whoa!

Be my virgin number 72

Whoo!

Uh-huh. Uh-huh.

Well, that's interesting. Yeah.

That's the kind of news

I could have used last week.

Problem?

Summit's been moved up.

Tomorrow afternoon.

We can be ready.

The RDX?

I'll talk to Eckert.

His boys can make it by morning.

All right. Let's make it work.

Clear.

You don't need it anyway.

Almost there.

Jackson, give them their bit.

A change of plans.

We move tomorrow.

Late afternoon.

Which means this car needs

to be ready by morning.

And the RDX rigged as soon

as possible.

How about you start telling us

what the actual game plan is?

Your lap dog over there

seems to know everything.

I know him. I trust him.

Well, that's just cute.

Congratulations to you.

But we've all put our ass on the line.

And don't forget:

They're my contacts

that are gonna score us the RDX.

Not yours.

Not his.

Mine.

You ground us.

You take our phones away.

You put us in a little corner

and lock us up in here like convicts.

I'm getting sick of working

with blinders on.

Blinders on?

Yeah.

For the integrity of the mission, I haven't

done anything that we haven't agreed to.

Integrity?

"The integrity of the mission."

I like that. No, I do.

This coming from a guy

who gets all bent out of shape...

...when we take a step outside to get

a breath of fresh air from this sh*t-hole.

But it's all for the integrity

of the mission.

Yeah, I get it. Okay.

Oh, yeah. One more thing,

that's bullshit.

Christ, Eckert, I get it.

Pope don't trust us.

Hell, he don't trust no one.

Don't take it so personal.

No, I get it too.

I am all for the cause.

Things in this country are f***ed up.

Mm-hm.

But I want you to know one thing.

I'm not some monkey that's gonna do

a dance every time the music plays.

I'm gonna ask you one more time.

What's the target?

By day's end tomorrow, you will know.

You ain't never home

All right, see you, man.

What'd I tell you?

Hey. Can I get a beer, man?

Payton.

Jake. Hey, man.

How's it going?

Good. Just got back.

How you been?

Ah. Awful. Hey. Let me get you a drink.

Awful?

No, I'm good. I'm just waiting on Hark.

Have you seen him?

No. No, I haven't.

Cheers.

Cheers.

Mm. I see Twig's here.

Twig's here?

Yeah, in the back.

What is it, like family night?

Man, seeing you again,

it reminds me of my little brother.

How's Petey doing?

Oh, terrible.

He married some ugly girl.

Sounds like Petey.

What is your problem?

Dude, I ain't got no problem.

You got a problem?

Just f***ing beat it, man.

Back the f*** off.

Whoa, whoa, whoa. Calm down.

All right?

How about we call it a night?

You know, he's kind of drunk.

You know?

Mother...!

Jesus f***ing Christ, Jake.

Before you say anything... If we weren't

pals, you'd be in jail right now.

So let me get this straight.

You come home.

You tell Amanda how to run the house.

You disapprove of Lilly's lifestyle.

Look at me, dude.

And the boyfriend.

You hate him too.

You know...

Don't talk.

So then what?

You come down for a cold one

and brutalize a redneck?

I've had better days.

If you are going to come home...

...you're gonna have to learn how

to assimilate to normal society.

Look, Lilly's dating a punk.

His name's Darren.

He's actually a pretty nice kid.

He's a loser.

You're a broken record.

Who do you want her dating?

A neurosurgeon?

Rocket scientist?

What do you want? This is Bridgeton.

Are you gonna take this guy home?

Do I have to?

For the sake of

the civilized world, yes.

Now, if you'll excuse me, I've gotta go see

a gentleman about his missing teeth.

Call me later.

Yeah.

Call me later?

Hark and I have been

seeing each other a bit.

You've been seeing Hark.

You know what's funny? You don't

even approve of your own best friend.

You come home every time

like a bull in a china shop.

Me, Hark, Lilly,

we love you to death but...

You gotta let this go, Jake.

We don't need a protector.

We're all grown up here.

Do you want a ride or don't you?

Yes.

I'll get you out of this junkyard.

Gotta find this connector.

Cool?

Stand tall and proud

On your rusty bow

You all right?

The sight of land won't let you down

Mm.

What's on your mind?

When the fog has cleared

I'm an island now

Do you want to stay here forever?

Here?

No, just gotta get this

battery connector off,

then we can get the hell

out of here.

No. I meant here in Bridgeton.

Oh. Heh.

No. Not really.

Why not?

Not sure where I'd go.

Yeah, me neither.

My brother wants

to get to know you better.

Wants to have you over

for dinner.

'Cause I fall sleep with dignity

And you're safe

F*** that.

'Cause you filled that hole

Before it was empty

You know military guys

remind me of my stepdad.

I know.

You know,

it's that "do this, do that" attitude.

"Cut your hair. Go to school.

Get a job."

It's never good enough.

Even when I get a f***ing job,

I gotta get a better one.

I thought I heard bells

But I confused the sound

Hey.

Come on.

I'm an island now

Yeah.

All right, you two stay back.

Keep your eyes open. I don't

Surprise, surprise.

Do you trust him?

His stuff is legit.

I trust that.

We'll see.

Let's go.

Eckert.

Let's take a look.

He's all business. Ha.

I like that.

USDA prime cut.

Check it out.

Looks good.

Good.

What did I tell you?

You might want to hold on there.

Gentlemen, I think we have a problem.

I don't like problems.

Sh*t, neither do I.

The change in schedule

was a real pain in my ass.

What the f***'s going on up there?

I don't know.

Rush order comes with a price.

What you've got in your hands

is what you get.

We had a deal. Right?

That was the deal. Look, I understand,

y'all don't like a curve ball.

If you need time to think about it, we can

put this off to tomorrow or the next day.

Can't wait till tomorrow.

Holy sh*t.

It's okay, it's okay.

Eckert, you son of a b*tch.

Get down.

Go!

Let's go. Get in the car.

Go, go, go.

Hey, what's up?

Amanda, it's me. I just saw a shooting.
