Two Men in Town Page #2

And what exactly is that

philosophy, Miss Smith?

Trust.

Without trust, there can

be no chance of reform

for anybody.

Well then,

if you decide you need my help,

don't hesitate to call.

And...

thank you for stopping by.

Thank you, Sheriff.

Look, I know my wife

would love to meet you.

We're going to be having

a celebration for a local hero

just returned from Afghanistan.

Why don't you and Jones come by?

Well, thank you.

Look forward to it.

Okay, then.

Have a wonderful day.

Thank you, Sheriff.

Enjoy the view.

Yah!

Go!

You're a cultured guy now?

Sheriff.

Sharia law?

Jesus didn't do it for you?

So, what do we call you now?

Just chosen a new way of life,

that's all.

Mm.

So, what's your next caper?

Live in peace.

Start a family.

Live in a little house

with a little lawn

and a lawnmower.

Wife, kids, neighbors.

A fairy tale

if I've ever heard one.

Look, I'm on parole, so...

nobody's going to listen to me

if I make a complaint.

But I want to ask you...

could you not harass me?

The world's turned upside down.

Still, it's good to see you showing

some respect for the law...

for once.

All I'm looking for

is a simple life, that's all.

If you don't mind,

I'd like to finish my dinner in peace.

Thank you.

My deputy, he's dead.

After he met you, there was

no more dinner for him.

His little girl

never had dinner with him.

The legal system is wrong.

Eighteen years in prison?

I'd say you got away cheap.

Sorry about Sergeant Taylor.

Really, I am.

I'm sure you are.

Welcome home, Willie.

Excuse me.

Oh, hi, honey.

I ran into Garnett tonight.

What's he look like?

He lost some weight.

Good morning.

Have a seat, please.

Hey.

Thank you.

What can I do for you?

- I'd like to open an account.

- Sure.

What type of account do you need?

Checking.

I will need your I.D., please.

Here you go.

Thank you.

I need your name

and your signature here.

Here's five temporary checks.

That should be everything you need.

I'm still trying to figure out

everything I need.

But... I'll take the checks.

If you need something else,

here's my card.

- Teresa.

- Mm.

Teresa Flores.

- Adios.

- Thank you.

Yes? Something else?

Huh?

Because I'm definitely

going to call you.

William Garnett.

Right here.

Go all the way from there.

- I was going to give you a call.

- Yeah?

Yeah. I got a job.

Good for you. Where?

The ranch.

I got my work contract.

Good.

Telephone number, too.

Great.

Anything else?

Yeah, I...

opened up a banking account.

Put in $1000.

That's the account number

right there.

That's it?

I got a date.

For next Sunday.

A date? What, with a girl?

You're joking, right?

You sure are a fast worker,

Mr. Garnett.

Where'd you meet her?

At the bank, where she works.

At the bank?

Why? That a problem?

No, not if you told her

about your past.

What, you think I'm going

to get her to pull a job

for me or something?

Did you tell her you'd been

to prison and why?

I was in a bank

to open up an account.

I met a woman there.

I liked her.

She could've been anybody.

She could've been

working anywhere.

She could've been working

on the cow ranch.

She could've been

shoveling cow sh*t.

All I'm trying to do

is what you asked me to do.

I'm just trying to live a normal life

like anybody else.

Is that all right with you?

Can you let me do that?

Just hold it right there,

not another step.

All right.

All right, I didn't mean to scare you.

I'm sorry about that.

Who's scared? Huh?

Now, you sit down.

I said sit down.

Mr. Garnett, there is a line

that must not be crossed.

Do you understand me?

Do you?

Yeah.

Good.

Tell her the truth.

What brought you to Deming?

You just opened a bank account.

Okay. See, I spent a lot of time here.

It's just... I just...

been away for a while, that's all.

And?

Where did you go?

Different...

Mm-hmm.

What's up?

- What's up?

- Willie!

Good to see you.

- Good. Looking good, man.

- I'm good, yeah.

I see you still balling.

All right.

Well, you look all right, man.

Yeah, I've been waiting 18 years

for you to get out.

You never got my letters.

You never responded.

You know, I'm still

broken-hearted about that.

Yeah, I was just trying

to get a new life.

I mean, I love you, man, but...

Seriously, I mean, I can't see you.

I can't even be around you,

they can put me back in for three years.

I got to go. All right.

It was good to see you.

Can I get a beer

and a ginger ale, please?

He don't want to talk to me?

We're out of that.

Just a bottle of water, then.

Hey, there's no law that says

you can't run into people.

I've been looking for you

for two days.

I got to talk to you

about something, brother.

- No podemos.

- Como?

If I'm going to make it,

I'm going to have to stay out

of all this, all right?

I got something for you.

No necesito nada. Nada.

All right?

I'm telling you, man,

you look good.

It's good to see you.

Take care of yourself, all right?

- Take care of yourself.

- Wait, wait, wait.

You mean I got to beg to talk to you?

Gary. Gary.

Shut the f*** up, okay?

Just shut the f*** up.

Hey, my card.

How can I reach you?

I got your number, all right?

Why you piss him off?

Don't f***ing do that again.

Hey.

Let's get out of here

and go somewhere private.

Si.

Another one, please.

Gary, I'm going to go dance.

Stay, Gary.

I had a really nice time.

Me too.

Teresa, you know, there's something

I need to talk to you about.

Just wanted to tell you.

You know I...

I'm Muslim, you know.

Well, all my family is Catholic.

I guess it means I'm Catholic, too.

But seriously, there is something

that I need to talk to you about.

You know what, you got to go.

You got to leave.

- What?

- Leave.

Bye.

Vamos. Goodbye.

This is not your business.

It's not your business.

Afternoon, ma'am!

You mind taking your hands

off my vehicle?

A gentleman

doesn't yell at women.

Hey, Chris?

Could you turn that down?

Ain't none you, bro.

I'm not asking you to turn

it off, just down, please.

What the f***?

Get the f*** out of my room!

What the f***

are you doing with my TV?

You Muslim n*gger piece of sh*t.

F*** you!

You're going to owe me

a new TV, a**hole!

F*** you!

Did you f***ing see that?

Did you see that sh*t?

He threw my f***ing TV!

You saw that, right?

Goddamn it! Son of a b*tch!

F*** you, you owe me

a new TV, a**hole!

F*** off!

Okay, you guys.

Party's over. I'll deal with this.

Back to your rooms.

You hear me?

You did this?

Lost control, sorry.

Step out into the hallway, sir.

Back off.

Turn around, face the wall.

Put your hands behind your back.

You can go back to your rooms.

Shut the door.

It's almost curfew.

So this is what happens

after, what is it, two weeks?

I made a mistake.

The sheriff came to Teresa's

house today to humiliate me.

Wait a minute.

Agati came to Teresa's house?

What for?

I don't know.

You got to ask him.

Is there anything

that I can do to fix this?
