CLERK:

You lost that one?

KIT:

Wouldn't be here if I hadn't.

CLERK:

What kind of work do you think you

would be qualified for?

KIT:

I can't think of anything at the

moment... I'd like you to write me

out a slip, though, proving I came

down here.

The Clerk leafs through his papers.

CLERK:

Well, I think we could find you

something... working cattle over at

the pens.

Kit sighs.

KIT:

Well, what the hell. Just hope there's

a breeze.

The Clerk gives him a slip of paper.

EXT. FRONT PORCH OF HOLLY'S HOUSE

Holly sees Kit approaching the house.

HOLLY (V.O.)

He was handsomer than anybody I'd

ever met. He looked just like James

Dean.

She walks out the front door.

KIT:

Hi.

HOLLY:

Well, stop the world.

KIT:

Quit my job.

HOLLY:

Great.

KIT:

Just seemed like the right move...

Whatcha doing?

HOLLY:

Spanish.

KIT (O.S.)

How do you say "Quit my Job" in

Spanish?

HOLLY:

Something mi trabajo.

Kit offers her a cigarette, which she declines.

KIT:

Yeah, well, I'm going to work as a

cowboy now... Or thinking about it.

It's a routine, like anything. What

do you think?

HOLLY:

I don't know.

He pulls himself up onto the banister beside her.
