We've got a couple bank robbers

on the loose.

Don't be alarmed.

We got them bottled up.

You folks heading out of town?

Um, yes.

Where to?

We're just going a couple exits

down the highway

to that new steak joint.

You been there?

Yeah, it's pretty good.

Look, I'm gonna need

to see your ID.

Yeah, no problem.

Do you have a description

of the robbers, Officer?

Maybe we've seen something.

There's not much of one.

Two white males...

one medium-build, one heavyset.

What did they do?

Walked into a bank in broad daylight

and took a whole bunch of money.

We've only got one witness who saw

anything. it's the sheriff's deputy.

He's in the hospital right now

getting bullets taken out.

Oh, one of them shot him?

Jesus. it's too bad.

So is he the only one

that got shot or... ?

No, we think we got

one of the bank robbers too.

I guess you used to be

in the military, huh?

Can't say I blame you

for letting it grow.

Yeah.

Is there anything else

we can do for you, sir?

Yeah, there's just one thing.

You know you're breaking

the law, don't you?

Your son needs to be

in a seat belt.

Oh. Chad, what did I

tell you, buddy?

Are you gonna give us a ticket,

Officer?

- You gotta put your belt on.

- Not right now.

Little man, do me a favor. Make sure

that seat belt's buckled at all times.

Yeah, we got it.

I'm sorry, Officer.

You folks have a good night.

Thank you.

Drive.

Why did that officer think

I used to be in the military?

Did you?

Maybe he could tell.

That's a theory, Lorraine,

except I never was in the military.

Let me show you something.

This is my ID.

Not a bad shot, huh?

I want to see yours.

Oh, my... no.

It's such a terrible picture.

I hate it so much.

Yeah, but I want to see it.

Oh, here we go.

Come here.

What have we got here?

Aha. Hey, little man,

who's in that picture, eh?

That's me and Mommy.

- And?

- And Daddy.

And Daddy.

Not me.

- I'm sorry.

- Well, I think I'll be in charge

of the family finances

from now on,

except there's no cash.

You've got no credit cards.

What do you guys do for money?

I don't get paid till Friday,

all right?

Well, that seems weird.

So what do you do Monday,

Tuesday, Wednesday...

all the days... ?

- We get by.

- Get by on frozen mini-pizzas

is what you get by on, huh?

You could buy a loaf of bread

and a jar of peanut butter for Chad

- with all the money that it cost for...

- Are you questioning

how I feed my child?

- Whoa, put your hands on the wheel.

- I'm sorry. Okay.

- Control the goddamn car.

- Okay.

Are you forgetting what this is?

No.

Who do you think has control

of this situation, huh?

You do.

Well, that's good
