But just remember, we have families here.

Big families with big guns.

So I'm sure we'll get along just fine.

Chief, he is here under our protection.

Let's just try to get

off on the right foot.

Okey-dokey.

Maybe one day we can

meet up and have a beer,

share some stories.

I bet you got some good stories, huh?

Bet yours will throw us

for a real whimsy, huh?

What the hell's a whimsy?

What the hell's a whimsy, Mr. Hirsh.

Hesh.

His new name is Derek Hesh.

I obviously didn't pick it.

I bet you didn't.

Hmm?

Bet you wanted to pick

something like Travolta.

Hmm?

Hi, you must be Derek.

I'm Tricia, Colin's wife and this Rex

and we are so happy to have you here.

I hope you don't mind us

showing up unannounced.

I just wanted to let you know

we're right down the block.

If you need anything,

don't hesitate to ask.

Isn't this area just great?

Is that dirt

or chocolate on his face?

Oh, it's both.

The boy gets into everything.

What exactly did your

husband tell you about me?

Oh, he said you are from New York

and that you were just a

spitfire of a personality

and that you were gonna be great

here with us small town folk.

He said you were working

construction or something so I just,

I brought you a pie.

Enjoy, it's apple.

- Thank you.

- Mm-mmm.

- You a smoker?

- Yeah, why?

Hold on.

Try this.

You're gonna thank me.

And the little man's gonna thank me too.

You're gonna have a lot

of energy after this,

you're gonna be cleaning his face all day.

Mon, I wanna try one.

Those look fun to me.

Make it happen.

Stop it, Rex.

My father wants to know

if you got the phone.

'Course I go that phone

I'm talking to you on it.

Tell him I said, "Thank you".

Where's my daughter?

I'd like to speak to her.

She's not here right now.

When can I call her?

I don't know.

Just give me a time that I can call her.

Try back in a few days and

I'm sure you'll catch her.

Okay, tell her I said hi.

All right.

One more drink

And I didn't think

She was serious When

she said goodbye

One more shot

That's all I got

When I keep my name

In her favorite car

She was my only

girl My whole world

Who would've thought That

it would end like this

Never saw myself

As a stalker

But she left me High and dry

So she had to know

When she decided to go

That I would

follow right behind

Never saw myself

As a stalker...

Hey, how can I help you?

My God does your face

look out of place in here.

Get out of here.

It's just that you're really hot and

your face doesn't go with this building.

Oh, your mouth must be real dry from

all that hot air coming out of it.

Are you drinking?

Yeah, I'll have a whiskey

and some confidence.
