Tin Cup Page #22

twelve on the last hole of the U.S.

Open. You know how much money

that cost me?

McCORD

Cost you a bundle...

TIN CUP:

I gotta get outta here.

McCORD

It was the greatest 12 I ever saw.

Back to you, Jim...

Tin Cup exits the scorers' tent and runs into the

regulars -- They're beaming, undyingly loyal.

CLINT AND EARL:

Greatest 12 I ever saw... you

crunched that dog, baby...

gorgeous shot, etc...

He looks up and there's Molly -- He stops short. They

embrace.

TIN CUP:

Molly, I'm an idiot. I gave away

the Open. The one time in my life

I know the play is to hit the lay

up -- my whole life and future

and career on the line, and I

still can't make myself do it. I

am a twisted human being and a

cautionary tale. And I guess I'm

a fool?

MOLLY:

Yes. A magnificent fool...

DISSOLVE TO:

A170 EXT. DRIVING RANGE (SALOME) - NIGHT A170

Mosquitoes, pools of light, the TRACTOR CHUGS around

picking up balls.

CUT TO:

133.

B170 INT. DRIVING RANGE CAFE - NIGHT B170

Romeo and Doreen eye each other -- locked in a stareof longing and mystery. TANGO MUSIC comes from a

BOOM BOX. They begin to move toward each otherin a tango step.

CUT TO:

170 EXT. DRIVING RANGE - NIGHT 170

Tin Cup and Molly are sitting, feet up, a couple LoneStar beers beside them, just taking in the warm Texasnight. Her head rests on his shoulder. The world at

peace.

TIN CUP:

Some people don't like West Texasbut I think it's the most

beautiful place on earth...

MOLLY:

It has its charms...

(beat)

Y'know, by finishing in the top 15at the Open you qualified to be init next year -TIN

CUP:

Damn, I didn't know that...

MOLLY:

I'm thinking with your game youshould go back to the QualifyingSchool, try to get out on tour...

TIN CUP:

Then I wouldn't see you...

MOLLY:

Actually, I picked up a wholebunch of new clients at the Open.

Lotta guys on the tour said if Icould do that much for you,

imagine what I could do forthem...

TIN CUP:

There's a lotta head cases out

there, you could make a bundle...

MOLLY:

And sleep in the Winnebago atnight...

134.

Silence.

TIN CUP:

Y'know... a man goes through what

I've gone through, he's supposed

to learn something.

(beat)

I'm trying to figure out what I

learned. Did I learn anything?

MOLLY:

You're learning some discipline and

self-control...

TIN CUP:

And that there's a time in life to

play it safe...

MOLLY:

That's great, Roy... and I'm learning

how to listen to the tuning fork,

throw caution to the wind, and take

crazy risks I never thought were

possible...

TIN CUP:

C'mon, Molly, when did you ever take

a crazy risk?

MOLLY:

I fell for you...

WIDE SHOT - LANDSCAPE

A desolate driving range outside of Salome, Texas. Bugs,

trucks passing in the night, and a tiny RADIO SENDING

GEORGE JONES across the plains.

FADE OUT.
