My father will be pacing The floor

Listen to That fireplace roaring

So, really, I should scurry

What about Fred?

Who?

Fred, you know Fred.

Fred.

He treats her okay.

That's not what I'm sayin'.

How'd a guy like that end up with Isold.

Up here we gotta take what we can get.

What's in this drink.

No cabs to be had Out there

I wish I knew how.

The night of the accident,

anything strange happen?

Nothing happens around here.

I'll take your hat, Your hair looks swell

I ought to say no, No, no, sir.

Mind if I move in A little closer

I don't...

Come on.

I don't...

You can dance.

No, but...

Everyone can dance.

Hey, I simply must go.

Yeah, but it's cold Out there.

Sh*t.

Come on!

She giving you problems?

Hey.

You're back?

Say, you were at the bar the

other night, weren't you?

Yeah.

Yeah.

You see anything?

You sure do ask a lot of questions.

You're still here?

Yeah, still tying up some loose ends.

Ever find out who was in the car?

As a matter of fact, we

think it might be Kelvin.

Kelvin?

Yeah.

Your brother.

What was he doing in Hastings?

You're sure it was Kelvin?

You were expecting him?

Expecting him?

First place the cops would look?

Had to be kinda stupid to hang out

at his sister's farm, don't you think?

Like driving around in your old Malibu

with your driver's license in the glove

box... and you're an escaped con.

Where's Thor?

I don't know.

Excuse me, I gotta find him.

Thor!

Thor!!

Thor!

Thor!!

Hurry up, sweetie!

Come on!

I think you better leave.

All right, then.

What's that?

What's what?

What's MVC stand for?

This old thing.

It's,

Mid Valley Central.

Yeah, go Bulldogs.

All right, then.

Where you going with the boy?

I can't believe this is happening again.

Come on.

Come on.

Those cops called.

Man, were they pissed.

Tell Weaver I'm gonna need

a couple of extra days.

He wants you back, Abe.

Today.

Tell... tell... tell him

my car broke down.

Your car?

Yeah, that... they... they said

it'd be done by tomorrow.

You gotta do something

about that stutter, man.

It gives you away every time.

Look, if you want to milk your

per diem, that's your business,

but you can't go around joyriding

on the company's time.

I think I'm on to something.

I can feel it.

All right. I'll go to bat for you.

Come back with something big

or this adventure is out of your own pocket.

Now look, let me explain.

I don't want to hear it right now.

Isold, sorry, all right?

For what? Making us hide

out like f***ing rats?

I feel like I'm stuck in a mud flat.

F***.

Look, it... it was an accident, all right?

Why Kelvin, then?

I just took advantage of the situation.

I've heard that before.
