Rae! | Don't do this!

I'll tell him where to find you | as soon as I get what's mine.

Don't! | Rae... no!

Stop the truck.

I never meant for any | of this to happen.

I've lived here all my life.

Oh, no, I understand.

I mean, you're just looking | out for your own.

I also understand | my father loved you.

As much as anyone could've | been there for him,

you were there for him.

Go home to Ruth.

No!

Damn it!

No! Sh*t! | Where is it?!

So you're a critic now?

What happened to you?

I've been hanging out | with some of your friends.

Good people, really.

- Where's Molly? | - Where's my money?

That money buys | your life back.

Ours, too. | Now where is she?

You like plain | talk after all.

I know about you | and your husband Robbie.

I know what you did.

I'm telling you, Robert, | you can't trust any of 'em.

They won't hesitate in putting | a bullet in you and me both.

I've had just about | enough of this.

Robert, can't you see? | We just wanted to start over.

We wanted to get away, | somewhere where no one knew us.

It's not like they didn't get | what they wanted.

Robert!

Please, Robert.

I'm not proud about how I earned this, | but I earned it.

Okay? I just-- just want | a new life.

Isn't that what | you want?

Or maybe you'd like | a life with me.

Hey! | My life is with Molly.

Now give me my money.

( distant car approaching )

Well, if you're gonna do it, | do it now.

Now where's Molly?

I told you! | Didn't I tell you they'd kill us all?

I'm gonna throw you out to the dogs | unless you tell me where Molly is.

If you get us out of this, | I swear I'll take you right to her.

You tell me where | she is right now!

( car approaching )

Get down.

We're gonna put an end | to this right now,

before it gets | out of hand.

I've got plenty, but I can only shoot | a few at a time.

Remember, you've only got six rounds, | so don't waste any shots.

I'm sorry, Robert.

You don't deserve this.

Yes, I do.

( creaks )

Bingo.

Jesus!

You're making me work | very hard today.

Aah!

dull thud )

You know what? | I don't understand you.

The way I see it, I've given you | everything you have.

That came with a price.

I didn't have a choice | with your precious generosity.

You're entitled to your opinion, | but you are not entitled to this.

You know, I don't know many girls | have patience enough

to spend all night | getting your dick hard.

You might as well crawl into bed | with that screwed up wife of yours,

'cause you're dead from the waist down | just like she is.

Rae, that's a firearm. | It's very dangerous.

- Please don't point it at me. | - Give me my money.

Rae...

point that | in another direction.

Give me my money!

Okay, all right.

You-- | you've earned at least...

You've earned that.

You gonna shoot me, Rae?

Really?

Then do it. | Go ahead. Do it.

I didn't think so.

Herman?

"Give you peace

which surpasses all | understanding."

Yeah, I think it goes | something like that.

( laughs )

( gun c*cks )

You killed her, didn't you?

Molly's dead?

She's been dead for a long time, | don't you think?

I made up my mind. | I wasn't gonna die in Reedsville.

You know, I used | to think that too.

At least you got to get out | for a while.

I ain't been east | of the Rockies.

Yeah? Well, I have. | Let me tell you...

Reedsville's as good | a place as any to die.

If you say so.

See ya, Robert.

( gunshot )

What you doing, Molly?

Putting one foot | in front of the other.

Good for you, Molly. | I mean it.

Good for you.

Oh, baby, I thought | I lost you. Oh...

We've survived | worse than this.

Did you know | your typewriter's broken?

It's too bad.

It's really | a... beautiful place.

I think I've seen enough of it. | Let's go home.

Where's that?

Anywhere with you.

( engine starts )

I'm half a woman

With half a heart

when we're apart

with me

I'm complete

My heart had been

So uninspired

Love left a lot to be desired

When you're here with me

I'm complete

that makes me whole

my second soul

Your love fills all my needs

Baby, when I'm with you

I catch my breath

Lose my cool?

break every rule

here with me

I'm complete

that makes me whole

my second soul

Your love fills all my needs

Baby, when I'm with you

Can't you see I'm satisfied?

My heart's content

perfect sense

here with me

I'm complete

When you're here with me...

( instrumental break )

ooh, ooh

Ooh-ooh, ooh, ooh

When you're here with me

I'm complete

ooh, ooh

Ooh-ooh, ooh, ooh.
