Trucker Page #6

Synopsis: Diane's free-wheeling life of drunken one-night-stands as a professional trucker hits a road block when Peter, her son, is dropped at her doorstep. Her former husband Len, whom she abandoned eleven years ago along with their new-born son, has cancer and no one else to turn to while he's in the hospital. Peter, resentful and wary, wants, even needs a mother who'll want him at this worrisome time but knows better than to expect this from Diane. With deliveries waiting and a mortgage to be paid, there's only one inevitable thing ahead for Diane and Peter - a road trip together.

But, yeah, I gotcha.

I can support you

You better go.

He's gonna be home soon.

You gonna say something?

Uh...

Ah, hell, Diane, you got

the most beautiful tits

I ever laid hands on.

Well, if nothing else, you--

you're a true gentleman.

[ Engine Starts ]

Stay out of trouble.

[ Clanging ]

Hey!

What are you guys doing?

How was the game?

Get out of here.

[ Clears Throat ]

Mmm. Wow. Okay.

Here you go.

What, are you

looking at something?

[ Chuckles ]

What are you looking at?

Are you f***ing

looking at something?

Nothing.

Nothing.

I got my kid coming home.

Nothing.

Mmm.

Look at me.

No, look.

Look at me.

I said I got my kid

coming home.

If you get

out of here right now,

I won't call the cops.

Okay.

Okay.

Come on!

Ahh! Ahh!

Look at me! Huh?

Look at me!

I'm looking at you!

I'm f***ing

looking at you!

Ow! F***! Ahh!

Goddamn it!

No! No!

See, I have a son, all right?

I don't want him coming in

on this, all right?

Listen, my truck's

parked outside.

All right?

Take me outside. In the truck.

In the truck. In the truck.

Oh, God!

My son! No!

Goddamn it!

Get the f*** off her!

Jesus! That is not

what I am!

That is not what I am!

Diane!

Diane.

This is my house.

Get out of my house!

Get out of my house!

[ Panting ]

Peter.

Those guys that were

just here-- [ Sobbing ]

[ Cigarette Lighter

Clicks Open ]

[ Clicks Closed ]

[ Cars Passing By On Freeway

In Distance ]

[ Whispering ]

The freeway's really loud.

Sometimes

it puts me to sleep

like waves at a beach.

Are you okay?

Yeah, I'm okay.

Are you?

Yeah.

Do you want me

to go with Jenny?

Do you wanna

go with Jenny?

[ Sighs ]

That's not what I asked you.

No, I don't want you

to go with Jenny.

Do you want me

to stay with you?

Will you say it?

I want you

to stay with me.

What can I call you then?

Anything you want.

Okay.

Okay.
