What am I supposed to tell these

other ranch hands that work for me?

Well, I don't work for you, Dad.

- I work for Gilley.

- Oh, is that a fact?

Yes, sir, it is. [ Grunts ]

You think you know it

all, don't ya, big shot?

Got all the answers.

I know enough not to

turn my back on people.

It always comes around to the same

old thing with you, doesn't it?

You know, that hole your mom

and Johnny dug themselves into...

- with that bar, it ain't got nothin' to do with...

- You own the bank, Dad!

[ Chuckles ] Yeah, and it's a business.

We got rules just like any other business.

That's capitalism hard at work.

Survival of the fittest.

Not some half-ass entitlement

program givin' handouts.

When that bar goes under,

guess it's meant to.

Fifteen years Mom gave you don't

mean nothin' to you, did they?

Gave me?

Tell you what, big boy.

Next time you get the chance,

you just ask your mom why she left me.

You see what she says.

Then we'll talk.

- I'm done here.

- Yeah, you are.

Brody, one of these days,

you're gonna have to pick...

which side of the fence you wanna stand on.

Son, it can't be both.

I already have. I quit.

What's that all about?

Ah, he's mouthin' off about quittin' again.

Ah, he'll come around.

Kids always do, especially when

they run out of money. Beer?

Yeah, sure, thanks.

[ Sighs ] You know, I really didn't

like him workin' out here anyway.

- Especially at night.

- Relax. All right?

This place is tight as

two rats f***in' in a sock.

Ball doesn't drop till

midnight. You know that.

- I know, I know.

- Hell, Brody's harmless.

Works his balls off. At least he's not

livin' off the dole, like Ty and Joey.

Hey, you created that problem.

- Everything go in town?

- Goin' good.

Served the notice myself.

- Payback's a b*tch, huh?

- Yeah, then some.

I want that dirt, Wade. Understand?

I don't need any

encouragement. Trust me on that.

That's my partner.

Taste for blood. Go for the kill.

You're not careful, you might

end up filthy rich, like me.

[ Country ]

Well, I, uh, checked out the

main water connection, and, uh,

I hate to say it, bud.

But if you wanna figure out what's

goin' on with your water pressure,

you gotta get down there and dig underneath

and get a good look inside the pipes.

You're kiddin' me. Tell

me you're kiddin' me.

You're probably gonna

have to re-pipe the copper.

Well, how much is that gonna cost me?

There's no way to tell till I get up in it.

Oh, all right. Well, sh*t.

- Sorry 'bout that.

- Hey, if it ain't one thing, it's 10 more.

You can guarantee that

one. We'll see you, buddy.

- Anything worth drinkin' back there?

- You name it, I got it.
