Why don't you just, uh, divorce
his ass and collect half the money?
No, I can't do that.
I signed this paper...
that said if I leave him,
I get nothing.
See? He's
a real smart guy.
You know, excuse me
for saying so,
but he didn't even trust you
when he married you.
If someone made me
sign a piece of paper,
that would piss me off.
And I would really,
really hate them for that.
You gotta hate him.
You gotta really, really
hate him, don't you?
You do hate him, don't you?
Sometimes I do.
Sometimes... I wish he...
Sometimes, what?
I wish he were dead.
Look, let's say
you could have that, okay?
Let's say Tony
was out in the car one day,
goes off to work and
he just never comes home.
And there you are, poor
littleJosie, the widow.
A certain period of time goes by.
Nobody blames you...
because you're young,
you're beautiful.
Tony was a schmuck
to begin with.
You get the house,
you get the cash.
I mean, baby,
you have it all.
Perfect solution.
I'll do it.
Do what?
I'll kill him.
Kill Tony?
Oh, no!
No! No!
You're joking, right?
What if I was serious?
Uh-uh, no. Mm-mm.
I've had too much to drink.
Wait a minute. Wh-Wh-Whoa.
Don't go. We're just talking.
Wait a minute, whoa.
Where you gonna go?
- I'm gonna call a cab.
- There's no cabs this time of night, okay?
I brought you, I'll take you home.
just come on, let's go.
You know, I thought we were friends.
We're friends, right?
You like me?
- Look at me.
- Don't touch me, okay?
- Don't touch you?
- No.
You know...
the things you want most
you pretend you don't want,
and you should really
get over that.
I'll tell you what. I haven't
played a game since I was a little kid.
Ever drive
by the moonlight?
Wait a minute.
What are you doing?
- We're driving in the dark.
- No, uh-uh. Turn the lights back on.
- No. No!
- Let me out! I want to get out!
- No! No! No!
- Sit back and enjoy.
Turn the lights back
on! Turn the lights on!
No, no! Come on!
- Oh, my God!
- Scared now, baby?
- Yes! Yes!
- Huh?
Isn't this fun?
- Stop it! No!
- Come on!
No! Stop!
Slow down! Oh, my God!
Hold on! Whoa!
Goddamn, I'm havin' fun, Josie!
- Stop! Stop!
- Oh, shut up!
- The gate up there! Stop!
- We're going right through it.
Lights out.
- Oh!
- No! No!
- Nice catch, huh? I know what you want.
- Get off of me!
You wanna go inside the cabin?
You know you want it, baby!
Get off of me!
Get off of me!
Leave!
You little f***ing b*tch!
That was a really
big mistake, partner.
Hey, here comes the cake.

How old...
That's funny.
Look at that bonfre.
How old are you anyway?
Yeah, why don't you test your math
skills and count the candles?
Forty one.
Forty one?
One to grow on.
If he grows any more,
I'll have a very small piece.
No, thanks.
I gave that up.
Make a wish.
Almost, almost.
The smoke from this...
I got it.
Ow. Thank you.
For what?
Well, for the nice party.
For putting up with me.
I blew our vacation.
That was pretty stupid.
Stunat'.

Oh, just forget it, Tony.
It was my fault too.
No. No, it wasn't.

This is the big one.
You know, it's...
incredible.
I have to tell you,

Half my life is over.
How's it been?
The truth?
You're the only good thing
that ever happened to me.
Thank you.
Do you remember how it was
when we frst met,
the way we were together?
Yeah, I do.
I miss that.
I miss those days.
I do too.
I would love to put the ways
we hurt each other behind us...
and... just wipe the slate.
Do you think
that's possible?
You tell me.
Yeah.
Oh, Josie.
I don't want to lose you.
Good night, Stu.
See you tomorrow.
Good night, Mr. Potenza.
Whoo!
Hey, when the rain
Do you remember
How sweet it used to be
Can't stand the rain
Against my window
Bringing back
sweet memories
I can't stand the rain
- Hello?
- Hey, it's me!
-
- I'm on my way home.
Oh, good. I was
just about to make dinner.
No, don't. I had a hell of a day today.
I'll tell you about it.
I want to take you
out to dinner tonight,
and I want you to wear that sexy number
that you wore at the
network Christmas party.
How long 'til
you get here?
- I'll be home in 20 minutes.
- Okay. Around eight.
Bye.
There's just one sound
That I just can't stand
I can't stand the...
Shut up.
All right.
What do you want?
See the park
we're coming up to?
- Yeah.
- Just make a left right in there.
You want the car?
It's yours, all right?
Take it.
Take the money too.
- Ow! Sh*t!
- If I want the money, I'll take the money.
- Son of a...
- All right, d*ckhead?
Now get out of the car. Get out!
Just come on.
All right.
Don't. Don't.
Don't do this.
You don't have to do this, man.
Let's talk, all right?
Piece of sh*t gun!
My God! Help!
Help me!
Help me, help me.
Help me!
Help me!

When you're f***in' dead, I'm gonna go

We're gonna have
the best f***in' time!

Don't! Don't!
The mobile customer you have called is
unavailable or outside the service area.
Please try your call later.
Tony!
Tony?
Hi, partner.
Who are you calling this time of night?
Gonna shoot me?
Go on.
I can't believe you were gonna do that.
You know, it took the whole clip to drop
that man of yours.
And you know what I did?
I took him to a park.
I don't know what park.
Some park.
And pop, pop, pop, pop!
Emptied the whole f***ing clip on him.
And you know,
the son of a b*tch would not die.
- Imagine that.
- No!
And do me a favor. Do not sit there
and act surprised, okay?
Tony.
You wanted it done.
I did it for you!
- No.
- Just like we planned.
You're crazy.
Oh, I'm crazy?
You know, you have selective
f***ing memory, is what you have.
Don't you remember?
We had dinner.
We discussed... a murder.
There were people
milling all about.
And we danced
the f***in' night away.
Oh, we did, though, didn't we?
And I bet you
my bottom dollar...
that waitress...
that snoopy little waitress...
I bet you she heard
every goddamn thing!
- Oh, yeah.
- No.
Without a doubt.
She heard you say,
"I want my husband dead,
and I want you to kill him. "
Mm-mm, no!
- Then you took me back to your cabin.
- Mm-mm. No!
You made love to me.
In my mind, anyway.
You even gave me a gun.
The gun from your cabin.
Oh, yeah. Oh, yeah, you did.
I'm calling the police.
And what the f***
you gonna tell 'em?
- I'm gonna tell 'em the truth.
- Oh, the truth?
The truth. Now,
what is the truth?
