Truth or Consequences, N.M. Page #3

- Dog.

All kinds of dog. Dog with broccoli.

Poodles with black bean-sauce.

Crispy barbecue dog.

That's sick. Imagine your dog is missing

and you go out to dinner and eat it.

That's a cold world out there.

You don't know what you're eating.

F***! Sh*t!

Curtis, we're being pulled over.

Addy, take everybody in the back.

Donna, come here.

You're in the back with us.

What goes down now is up to you.

Pulling over a tan RV.

Utah license plate 39L66V.

Be cool, lady.

Please exit the vehicle

with your license and registration.

- What seems to be the problem?

- May we search your vehicle?

Yeah.

May I see your license and registration?

- Where are you coming from?

- Clear Lake.

- Are you alone?

- Yeah.

- It's registered to a Gordon Jacobson.

- That's my boyfriend.

- Where is Mr Jacobson now?

- He's up at the lake.

Are you all right?

Yeah. We had an argument this morning.

Vehicle's empty.

Here's your papers.

Sorry for the inconvenience.

Gordon?

What if he had looked on the roof?

Would you have shot him?

- In a minute.

- How can you be so nonchalant?

It's a game. Everybody who plays

the game understands the rules.

I certainly understand the rules.

The cop's the good guy. I'm the bad guy.

It's his job to catch me.

I will do everything I have to

to stay ahead.

I've been to prison. I'm not going back.

Nobody's f***ing with my liberty again.

When you get to the trees,

get off this road.

- Don't you think we should keep moving?

- No, we should hold up until morning.

Then we'll get a new ride.

Another night with the Bobbsey twins.

Gordon and Donna.

What made you buy a mobile home?

My grandfather left it to me.

Thought I'd take some vacation time.

Drive around the countryside.

- Kind of a Charles Kurault thing.

- Who's Charles Kurault?

He's a reporter on television.

I don't watch TV.

You should watch TV. Then you'd know

you can't read people's minds.

- That's funny.

- Don't you think we would know by now?

Absolutely not.

The government puts people

with supernatural powers on an island.

I'm serious. If I was a politician, -

- the last thing I'd want

is some f***er who could read minds.

Gordon gets it.

So the people just go away

and never come back?

First, they want to see you.

Make sure you've got the real goods.

Then your ass is theirs.

Then they take your car

and stick a bomb in it.

Everybody you knew thinks you're dead.

But you're not.

You're on vacation at Club Fed.

When they say they want to

talk to you, are they lying?

Of course they're lying.

If you can read minds,

why don't you know that?

She's quite the smart-ass.

My girl.

- Gordon's not getting any tonight.

- She's pissed.

Go get her, cowboy.

- Are you all right?

- No, I'm not.

- We were just kidding around.

- Don't you get it?

They'll tell you a joke one minute,

the next, they'll shoot you in the head.

They're not waving guns at us any more.

Maybe if they get to know us,

they don't kill us.

Gordon?

Is it possible

that you admire these people?

Not admire...

They're going to make more this week

than I'll make all year.

I can't believe you're saying this.

A week ago, you wouldn't have had

anything to do with people like this.

- I know what I'm doing.

- You don't have a clue.

That's enough!

Let's go back and join the others.

I'll be back in a minute.

- I'm going to bed.

- Me too.

- Good night, Ray.

- Sweet dreams.

I'm going to get another beer.

Marcus, you want a beer?

Yeah, just get me one.

- Gordo?

- Fine.

What the f*** are you doing?

You think this is cool?

No.

- Why are you kissing everybody's ass?

- I'm not.

People like you look at this life -

- and you think it's got a power,

because it says "f*** you".

There's an invisible line

between this world and yours, Gordon.

But you can't see that

until you cross over that line.

And once you do -

- there's no turning back.

Sorry, man.

Yo, dog. I'm going to take

this couple for a walk.

I don't give a sh*t.

I'm going to go take a piss.

Come with me.

Just shut up and come with me.

Give me a kiss.

That's all I get.

We're not giving you any trouble.

Why are you taking us out here?

Shut the f*** up and listen to me.

Do everything I tell you to do.

- Shouldn't we be with the others?

- Shut up!

We're over here!

What the f*** are you doing out here?

Getting some rest.

It's a f***ing rest stop, isn't it?

We've got to go. Gordon, Donna, now!

Let's go, honey.

I think we found ourselves a new ride.

- Nice car.

- Thanks.

Give me the keys! Get down!

- We don't need to kill him.

- Says who?

This isn't what we're about.

- He's going to tell the cops.

- Tie him up and put him in the RV.

You want to be bad guys

but not kill anybody.

You'd better

re-examine your commitment.

Shut the f*** up! No more killing!

Put him in the RV!

There you go. All yours.

- It's the right thing to do.

- You getting a conscience, Marcus?

You've got one too.

You just don't want to admit it.

Just get him in the RV.

Police found the motor home

at a rest stop.

They took some guy's suburban.

- Did he identify them as our guys?

- Yes.

Let's get down there.

Hey, Gordo. Behave and I'll teach you

the finer points of armed robbery.

You'll never feel power like saying:

"Give me everything you've got!"

- We've got a cop.

- Sh*t.

- Come on, Ray! Move!

- Shut up! Just shut up!

- Just be cool.

- Don't tell me to be cool!

Dispatch 323. Code 33.

Suspect vehicle:
red and white suburban.

- What's he doing?

- Curtis, be cool.

- Try to lose him.

- Pull over!

Son of a b*tch.

What the hell are you doing?

Come on! Move!

Watch out!

Sh*t!

402, I'm in pursuit.

They're coming right at you.

- Get in the room!

- What's going on?

Knock him out!

Come on, Ray. Hurry up.

Gordon, you drive.

Come on. Get in there, Donna.

Get down! Duck!

Go! Go!

Car 401, do you see them?

Sh*t!

Are you sure taking Curtis into Vago's

is a good idea?

Yeah, why?

How do you know he won't kill him

the second he sees him?

Curtis does what I tell him to do.

Asking Curtis not to kill the guy that

killed his best friend is asking a lot.

Not even Curtis is dumb enough

to throw down on Tony Vago.

Curtis takes the cake on dumb, Ray.

Here you go.

Thanks a lot.

- You're going to be cool, right?

- I'm going to be cool.

It might be better if I stayed here

and watched these two.

Addy'll be fine.

- You afraid?

- Damn right! These are bad people.

- I'm not afraid.

- You're too stupid to be scared.

No reason to be scared.

We'll move the weight.

We'll get out.

Hurry back.

Your intelligence really shines.

Every cop in the world is looking

for you and you lead them to me.

That is brilliant.

Obviously, there's no respect.

But your types wouldn't know

anything about respect, would you?

Respect is the foundation of

civilization and working relationships.

No offence, Tony, but you're getting

a little carried away.

Respect is what separates us from
