What do we look like?

F***ing prosciutto bandits?

Where's your car?

On the other side of the barn.

Let's go take a look-see. Up we go.

Come on.

That's your car?

We'll just have to make it work.

Come on, show me.

What are you doing?

No more killing.

- I think...

- You don't think!

That's the problem.

Why don't we take them with us?

We might need them.

That's thinking.

- You drive.

- Don't make us go with you.

- What are your names?

- I'm Gordon and this is Donna.

Well, Gordon and Donna. Hop in.

Wait, we're not going to say anything.

Gordon, right? The next time I tell you

to do something, you do it.

Your life means nothing to me.

We're bringing you for protection.

You cross me once

and your life ends. Understand?

Good. So, Gordon and Donna. Hop on in.

Frank, you know Alan Gryder.

So, let's have it.

A few months ago, we got word a dealer

named Eddie Grillo was moving up.

He got a connection

that could supply 100 keys a month.

- How did we get this information?

- On a phone tap.

Do we know who killed him?

Raymond Lembecke, Addy Monroe, -

- Curtis Freeley and Marcus Weans.

We got them on this surveillance tape.

- What have the police got on them?

- Raymond got out eight months ago.

- He did two years on possession.

- How much?

- A key.

- That's a lot for a small-timer.

It was Grillo's.

Lembecke wouldn't roll over on him.

Grillo gave him a job in the warehouse.

My guess is Lembecke felt he was owed.

Grillo wasn't giving, so he took.

Addy Monroe is Lembecke's girlfriend.

She has no priors.

Curtis Freeley is as bad as they come.

He's been in the joint twice.

For possession and assault with intent.

When he was inside,

he was Lembecke's muscle.

He's been in and out his whole life.

His record is extensive.

- And Weans?

- That's where we've got a problem.

Marcus Weans is one of ours.

Marcus, we've got to go!

Come on, Marcus, we've got to go!

- What are you doing?

- Can't a brother take a piss?

- May I ask what you're running from?

- No, you may not.

- It's got to do with drugs, right?

- Look, just do what you're told.

All they want to do

is sell it and disappear.

- "They"?

- I said "we".

- No, you said "they".

- Shut the f*** up.

You know what? Turn around.

- The highway is up here.

- Gordon, I know where the highway is.

What are you doing, Addy?

I figure we got a bad jump on this one.

The highway is crawling with cops.

What do we need to run for?

We have everything right here.

Why don't we head up into the hills,

chill out for the night, rest...

Let the heat die down.

Sounds good.

Hey, Gordon!

Turn around.

Ray, I know you and Curtis are tight,

but you have got to cut him loose now.

- What?

- He's out of control.

- If I left Curtis, he'd be dead.

- One of us is going to end up dead.

- Don't talk like that. It's bad karma.

- I'm serious, Ray.

We have to get past the next few days.

After Vago, it'll be clear sailing.

Don't worry about Curtis.

I can handle him.

- What if something happened to me?

- I don't want to think about that.

No, what would you do?

If something happened to you,

I wouldn't want to be alive.

- Really?

- Yes, really.

Now, come here. Give me a hug.

Gordon?

- What are we going to do?

- I don't know. We're going to be okay.

How can you say that?

These people are crazy.

They're probably scared too.

- They're going to kill us.

- We don't know that.

They haven't killed us yet, right?

That's only because they need us.

What's going to happen

when they don't need us any more?

They'll probably let us go.

Here are your categories.

"The Old Testament"

followed by "Colours".

"Science". "Pop music".

"State capitals".

"Foreign words and phrases".

Science for 100, please.

He outlined his three laws of motion

in Principia Mathematica.

- Who is Galileo?

- Sir Isaac Newton.

Who is Sir Isaac Newton?

State capitals for 500.

- What's all this oat and bran sh*t?

- It's cereal.

No, Cocoa Puffs and Fruit Loops,

that's cereal. This sh*t is for horses!

- Why do you have to make so much noise?

- Sorry I woke you up.

But we've got to do something about

the food situation here.

- I can't live on oats and prosciutto.

- We're going to stop for supplies.

"In I Samuel, chapter 31,

this king falls upon his own sword-

- so David can become king."

What do you say? Who's Herod?

- I'll go with that.

- I don't think so. How about Saul?

- Who is Saul?

- That's right.

- That's impressive, Raymond.

- Thanks, Gordon.

- Select again.

- Science. 400.

It's registered to Freeley.

They grabbed another ride.

They're not walking.

Cancel the APB on the car.

Marcus left us a note.

He must have been in a hurry.

Hostages explains

why he's still with them.

Keep the APB on the four of them.

Gentlemen! We are now looking for an RV.

Utah license plate unknown.

Let's go find it!

What're you doing?

My mother loves these things.

Sweepstakes are for losers.

Believe it or not.

I know this mechanic who won five grand.

I know a fella who won twice in a week.

What are the odds of that?

- Here? In this very store?

- I was here working at the time.

- We took a picture.

- That's cool, man.

I play every day. Never won a thing.

Dispatch. I'm 1086 at the Tri-Mart.

Back in fifteen.

All-points for RV.

Utah license plate unknown.

I think you need a system.

A birthday or a woman's measurements.

- Hey, Rob.

- Curtis!

Good morning.

Come on, Marcus. We should go.

Was that all?

- Thanks a lot.

- You bet. Good luck to you.

Advil.

Just a minute.

You can't win unless you enter.

Have a good day, boys.

- Thanks.

- You have a good day too.

- Did you get it?

- Yeah, I got it.

- I don't feel good about it, though.

- You're making too big a deal about it.

I just feel like

I'm going behind my boy's back.

I'm not with that.

I just think he should be

more involved in this.

He will be. I just want to know first.

Thank you.

- The whole thing's illogical.

- How's that illogical?

If Yogi took the picnic basket outside

the park, Ranger Rick couldn't do sh*t.

- How can you eat that sh*t, Marcus?

- Who are you? The nutrition police?

Like that breakfast taco is better.

- It's better than that rat sh*t.

- Because the word "breakfast" is in it?

Do you know how much saturated fat,

cholesterol and sodium are in that?

- No.

- About twice the daily allowance.

So, nutritionally, you shouldn't eat

until the day after tomorrow.

How can they advertise it as healthy?

That's nothing. You'd be surprised at

what some restaurants do.

Me and some buddies went out

to get some food.

An hour later, my boy's ass

is glued to the toilet stool.

Sick doesn't describe what was going on.

I've seen it with my own eyes.

The boy was changing colours.

He was dark-skinned, right?

After half an hour,

he looked like a white.

The next day, the health department

closes the place down.

The meat didn't come from a cow.

- Where did it come from?
