Thelma & Louise Page #4

back here by tonight,

Thelma,

well, then I just

don't wanna say.

Darryl.

Thelma.

Go f*** yourself.

Oh, that's good,

that's just sweet.

Sh*t!

Sorry.

Darling, you all right?

Are you okay?

Did I cause that?

No, I'm sorry.

No? You're okay?

Uh-huh.

All right.

Is there something

I can do for you?

No, it's okay.

Hmm?

Crazy.

Excuse me, ma'am.

Uh... May I ask which

direction you're heading?

See, I'm trying

to get back to school.

My ride fell through.

Well, I'm kind of

stuck here like

stink on stink.

So I was thinking

that if you're going my way

or if I'm going

your way...

I think we're going

to Oklahoma City,

but I'm not sure.

Perfect.

Yeah. Well,

I'd appreciate it much.

Mmm.

Well, see,

it's really not up to me.

It's not my car.

Um...

We'd have to ask my friend.

But she'd probably say no.

She's a little bit uptight.

Maybe it's not

such a good idea.

But I'll tell you what,

I thank you for your time.

But, you know,

I mean, I can ask,

you know.

It wouldn't hurt nothing.

Well, no,

it wouldn't hurt.

Hey.

Louise. Hey, Louise.

This young man here's

on his way back to school

and I thought

since we're going in

the same direction,

you know, we could

give him a ride, huh?

It's probably

not a good idea.

Louise...

No, probably not,

but I appreciate your time.

You all have a good day,

all right? Drive safe.

Louise?

Did you see

how polite he is?

He was real sweet.

Thelma.

What?

Take care of

yourself, now.

Fill her up.

Sure wish we could have

brought him with us.

What did Darryl

have to say?

He said, "Okay, Thelma,

I just wanted to make

sure you was all right.

"I sure hope

you're having fun.

"You deserve it.

After all,

you put up with me.

"I love you, honey."

So, how long before

we're in goddamn Mexico?

I just didn't

think it would hurt to

give somebody a ride.

Did you see his butt?

Darryl don't have

a cute butt.

You could park a car

in the shadow of his ass.

I'm sorry.

I'm just not in the mood

for company right now.

Here, take this map.

I need you to find

all the secondary roads

to Mexico from

Oklahoma City.

I think we should

stay off the interstate.

We're too conspicuous.

Looks like we could get

on this Road 81 here

and head down towards Dallas.

No, I don't want

to go through Texas.

Find some way

we don't have to

go through there.

Wait.

What? You want

to go to Mexico

from Oklahoma,

but you don't wanna

go through Texas?

Thelma, you know

how I feel about Texas!

We're not going that way!

Yeah, I know, Louise,

but we're running

for our lives.

I mean, can't you

make an exception?

I mean, look at this map!

The only thing between

Oklahoma and Mexico is Texas.

Look!

Thelma, I'm not

gonna talk about this!

Now, you either find

another way or give me

the goddamn map and I will!

Do you understand?

No, Louise, I don't.

Now, how come

you never told me what

happened to you there?

Look, you shoot off

a guy's head

with his pants down,

believe me,

Texas is not the place

you wanna get caught.

Now, trust me.

Now, I've told you,

I'm not gonna talk

about this anymore.

Happy birthday, lady.

You know, you could

have been a cuckoo

And, baby, you're so smart

You know you could

have been a schoolbook

Well, you could have been

anything that you wanted to

And I can tell

The way you do

the things you do

Is the manager in?

Marian, there's

a police officer here.

All right. All right,

Thelma. All right.

Okay.

The other night

there was a murder out

at the Silver Bullet.

A man was shot.

And we have some

witnesses that saw

a 1966 T-Bird convertible

leaving the scene,

sort of speeding out

of the driveway there.

And that vehicle

is registered

to one Louise Sawyer.

And we have

reason to believe

that your wife was

the other occupant

of that car.

What?

Excuse me.

You're standing

in your pizza.

Sh*t!

So, tell me something,

Ms. Thelma. How is it

you ain't got any kids?

I mean, God gives you

something special,

I think you ought

to pass it on.

Well, Darryl,

that's my husband...

Darryl?

Yeah. He says

he's not ready yet.

He says he's still

too much of a kid himself.

Kind of prides himself

on being infantile.

He's got a lot

to be proud of.

Louise and him

don't get along.

That's

putting it mildly.

She thinks he's a pig.

I know he's a pig.

Did you get married

real young, Ms. Thelma?

Well, I guess

But we'd already been

going out four years

when we got married.

Out for how long?

Four years.

I never been with

anybody but Darryl.

Oh, I'm sorry.

Well, if you don't

mind me saying so,

he sounds like

a real a**hole.

It's okay.

He is an a**hole.

Most of the time,

I just let it slide.

You better slow down

there, Ms. Louise.

That's a cop up ahead.

Sh*t.

Maybe you got a few

too many parking tickets.

We'll take you

to Oklahoma City,

then you best be

on your way, all right?

All right.

Prints on the trunk

of the car match those

of Thelma Dickinson.

I'll be damned.

Isn't that strange?

And the husband says

a gun is missing.

She took a lot of stuff.

It looks like

she may be planning on

being gone a while.

The strange thing is

her husband said

she would never

touch that gun.

He got it for her

'cause he's out late a lot,

but he said

she'd never touch it,

wouldn't learn to shoot it.

Just kept it in

a drawer for years.

What kind of gun was it?

.38.

Right. Where are they?

They were on their way

to some guy's cabin

and they never showed up.

All right. Now,

I'm gonna go and...

Listen up, you two.

I'm gonna go in. It's

just gonna take a minute.

You two better

say your goodbyes,

you understand?

Okay.

Hi.

Hi.

I'm here to pick up

a money order

for Louise Sawyer.

There's nothing.

How about "Peaches"?

Could you try

code word "Peaches"?

Did I hear somebody

say "Peaches"?

Oh, my God. Jimmy.

That's the secret word.

Show the lady

what she's won, Don.

What are you doing here?

I just came

to see you, baby.

Can I have

another room, please?

Put it on

my credit card.

Thelma? Thelma,

get your foot down.

Thelma, look who's here.

Oh! Sh*t! Jimmy.

Hi, stranger.

What in the world

are you doing here?

Ask me no questions

and I'll tell you no lies.

Good answer.

Same goes

double for me.

Who's the cowboy?

This here...

This is J. D.

How'd do?

He's a student.

He's gone.

We're just giving him

a ride to here, then he...

Louise said that

he would have to go, so...

He's gone.

I guess that's

what he's doing.

Yeah, I reckon

that's what I'm doing.

He's gone.

Like the wind.

Have a good trip.

Thank you.

Nice meeting you.

Yep.

Yep, that's him going.

I love watching him go.

Thelma kind of

took to him.

Yeah, well,

I got you a room there,

Thelma.

You can go on in

and take yourself

a nice cold shower.

Well,

you know me, Jimmy,

I'm just a wild woman.

It's our future.

What are you

gonna tell him?

Nothing.

I'm not gonna

tell him a thing.
