if I said anything stupid.

No, you didn't.

I just had to leave early.

I had a little too much to drink is all.

I don't do that very much.

It was a holiday you told me.

- Did I?

- Yeah.

- What else did I tell you?

- Not a lot.

You're lying, aren't you?

I'd like to see you sometime.

That's not possible.

- Anything is possible.

- Not that. I'm sorry.

Maybe I'll call you anyway.

I'll call the police.

Call me.

How much is that one?

This one?

What do you want

with a big nine millimetre?

How much is it?

$600.

And I'll throw in a couple of clips.

What did you do today?

Put in some new flowers.

The azaleas are coming in.

I saw them. They look real nice.

You guys hungry?

You sure as hell look hungry.

Here you go.

Did she forget to feed you again?

- Something wrong, honey?

- What do you mean?

Well, you're acting like

you're keeping something from me.

Well, how am I acting?

Like I'm having a wild sexual affair?

Are you?

No.

Are you?

Why do you say that?

Excuse me.

Sit down, goddamn it. I'm talking to you.

Sh*t.

Homicide. Dickey.

Mr. Kyle Bodine.

Who should I say is calling?

Hold on.

It's for you. She's got no name.

Hello.

How are you doing?

Sure. Where?

Yeah, what time?

All right. I'll see you then.

'Bye.

You're not married, right?

No.

How come?

I don't know.

Married to your work?

You don't look like a real detective.

You're supposed to wear white socks,

aren't you?

What colour are your socks?

Blue...

...and black.

- You're very colourful.

- It's what detectives wear.

- Do you carry a gun?

- Yes, I do.

Where?

May I see it?

What are you going to do, shoot the chef?

- What kind is it?

- It's a.38, two-inch, snub-nose...

...because of the short barrel.

You never shot anyone, have you?

Not really.

I bet you wouldn't tell me if you had.

Thank you.

- 'Bye, honey.

- 'Bye.

- You take care, now.

- You, too.

I'll call you.

Watch your dress.

Thanks.

You want to go out?

Look at that moon.

My grandmother used to call that

a "china moon"...

...like a big old plate of china.

She said people would get affected

by that...

...that they'd do strange things.

Do you believe that?

I don't know.

Are you going to do something strange?

I do feel like it sometimes.

You're so beautiful.

What do you do out here?

Drink beer, row around the lake,

just get kind of stupid.

Go skinny-dipping.

The water is so nice and warm.

You ought to jump in.

It's okay?

Yeah, sure.

Go ahead.

It's wonderful.

Are you coming in?

Put your arms around me.

Kiss me.

Why did you cry?

Tell me.

It's your tenderness.

I haven't had much of that.

How bad is it?

I don't want to talk about him,

not when I'm with you.
