Wendy And Lucy Page #2

---

Yeah. I just need

to get to the pound now.

Well, that's easy.

You just take the street

right here.

Go straight down till it dead ends

that way about...

...just right till it dead ends, then

you head right about three miles.

You lose your dog,

is that it?

Yeah...

...that's what it looks like.

That's a shame.

Somewhere around here?

Yeah, that store.

Jack's?

I'm sure someone's got her.

She couldn't have

gotten too far.

I was gone kind of

a long time.

I'm sure it wasn't that long.

She'll turn up.

Okay.

So I just go down this street,

and then I take a right?

I'm pretty sure it's close now. You'll

probably have to wait until morning.

But you know, you can get the

number four right here on the corner.

It will take you right there.

Starts at six a.m.

I think I'm just

gonna head there now.

It's definitely closed.

Well, f***ing Christ!

Well, if she's there she'll be there

in the morning, won't she?

A night in the pound

never hurt anyone.

You know, there's a good hotel

down the road. The Palms.

Really good clean rooms.

If I see anything

I'll let you know.

Hello?

Hey, Dan.

Wendy? Hold on,

let me turn down the TV.

Where are you?

In Oregon.

Raining?

Yeah, kind of, sort of.

On and off.

So what's up?

Nothing. I'm just calling.

Just, you know, just...

Nothing?

The car broke.

I don't know.

It's kind of bad here, actually.

Lucy's lost.

Who's that?

It's your sister.

She broke down in Oregon.

Hi Deb.

0regon?

What does she want us to do about it?

Nothing. I'm just calling.

She's just calling.

We can't do anything. We're strapped.

I don't know what she wants.

I don't want anything.

I'm just calling.

I can't talk with everyone

on the phone.

I'll talk to you when you're

done with Dan. Bye, honey.

Everything's all right?

Yeah. Everything's great.

You kind of sound like you're busy

over there, so I'm gonna call you later.

All right, if everything's fine.

See ya.

Yeah, see ya, bye.

Lu!

Luce!

I was usually like

the only white person there.

That's so weird.

Why does that girl

hate you so much?

I saw the cheerleading squad. Madison's

got some chunky cheerleaders.

Dude, f***,

there's a lady in there!

Your mom's always tired.

Yeah, my mom's like,

always, always...

Just a minute!

Good morning. Hello, Amy.

Hello, Mike.

What is going on

with the traffic?

Well, we have activity on Northeast 53rd Avenue

between Gleason and Irving...

...so it is closed.

She's medium sized.

Yellow-gold in color.

Her name is Lucy.

I left her tied up to a post

and then when I got back

she wasn't there anymore.

Well, I don't see

anything here that matches.

But come on, let's go take a look in the

back. You never know. Okay? Follow me.

Okay, so you can go

right around the corner here.

CARROLL WENDY:

CANINE FEMALE SPAYED

Okay, no address?

And no phone either?

No. I mean, no,

not right now.

I'm just passing through.

Do you have a

previous address?

My sister and her husband.

They live at...

...East, 73 East Jackson...

...Muncie, Indiana, 47603.

You can use that.

Okay.

Do you think that

you'll find her soon?

Well...

...you're just gonna have

to keep checking in, okay?

It's gonna be up to you now.

Okay.

Thank you.

I don't think so.

Okay, just set the Voltmeter

to the DC scale, all right?

Measure the voltage

across the battery terminals.

The volt meter reads

less than 14 volts...

...you know, it should read 14.

Okay?

If it reads less than 12

you might have a problem.

Okay, tell you what...

...you turn on the heater...

...you turn on the defogger...

...you turn on the radio,

and you rev up the motor...

...you're turning on

everything that draws power...

...and then you turn on the

motor, you rev up the motor...

...and if the Voltmeter reads

lower than 14 volts...

...your alternator's probably no

good. Okay? Well, good luck.

What's up?

Start talking, I'm listening.

I think I've got a problem

with my S-belt.

What?

With my S-belt. I think my

Serpentine belt is cracked.

Oh, yeah. Serpentine belt?

A guy in Salt Lake City said that

he thought it was cracked...

...and that it would run about

You were driving with the air

conditioning on? The engine jerked?

Steam came out?

That kind of thing?

No. It just won't start.

It just makes this terrible sound.

Yeah?

Oh, man.

You are blowing my mind.

You are messing up my mind.

Okay, I'll tell you what.

Yeah, yeah.

No, that's it.

Yeah, yeah, I said, you know, you're

really messing with my mind, man.

Yeah, okay.

Yeah. I'll see you later.

What kind of car

are we talking about?

Well, it's an Accord.

Well...

Easy enough to replace

the Serpentine belt.

I don't know why

the ignition won't fire, though.

Who knows.

Could be the timing belt.

How much is a new

Serpentine belt?

A hundred bucks.

new one. I'll have to check stock.

And it'll be 50 for labor.

That's the best you'll find.

I promise that.

Okay. And what about a timing

belt? How much is that?

Could be a little bit more, but I

won't know until I have a look.

Okay.

And we're going to have to tow it

over, I guess. That adds another 50.

But it's just right there.

Well, it's always 50. But there's

no mileage here. So it's just 50.

I'll give you a deal...

Yeah.

How's the dog?

No news.

No luck at the pound?

Not yet.

I had a Collie once that was gone for

two weeks before he came home.

They'll find her.

They always get their dog.

Yeah, I sure hope so.

Could I trade you for a quarter? I need

to use that pay phone over there.

All I've got is change

and it only takes quarters.

Lots of minutes. Feel free.

No, no.

No one uses a pay phone anymore.

Come on.

Thanks.

Hi, my name is Wendy Carroll.

I lost my dog Lucy and I...

Yeah, yeah, hi.

I was just calling to check and see

if there was any new information.

Okay, all right, I understand. I'll keep

checking. Okay. Thank you. Bye.

How late are you

here tonight?

Eight o'clock.

Eight to eight.

Okay.

Better than my last job.

I'll tell you that.

That was all night,

every night.

Not a lot of jobs

around here, huh?

I'll say.

I don't know what

the people do all day.

Use to be a mill. But that's

been closed a long time now.

Don't know what they do.

You can't get a job

without an address anyway...

...or a phone.

You can't get an address

without an address.

You can't get a job

without a job.

It's all fixed.

That's why I'm going to Alaska.

I hear they need people.

I hear it's really

pretty up there.

Yeah.

You know, if you need a contact

for the pound or anything...

...I'm just standing here with my

hands in my pockets all day.

You can use my phone

number if you like, you know.

Yeah.

I might do that.

That'd be good.

floppy ears sharp eyes

yellowish-brown friendly face

I'm L0ST!!!

You lost your dog?

Wow, bummer.

Wow, where did you lose it?

You don't know? Well, I guess if you

knew, you'd know where to find it.

Yeah, I guess so.
