# I can see the interstate #

# I ain't goin' back #

# But I'll try and forget #

# Never thought

Leave it up to fate #

Hey.

I don't think you know.

I know exactly.

I lived there for 12 years.

I think you're a damn fool.

Afternoon. You ain't

with the Halicorp folks?

No.

You're a real genius there,

Terry.

Thought I'd check.

What?

What can I do for you?

Need a room?

No, I'm, uh...

looking for a friend

at this address.

Oh, uh, that's out

in the desert, I-I think.

Uh, Don,

this fellow's looking

for that place out on New Hope.

What place?

You know, the one that's

all the way out there.

There ain't nothing

out on New Hope

but a bunch of construction.

You here

for a construction job?

No, I'm here

to visit a friend.

That's his address.

That's funny 'cause

there's nothing out there.

All the land's been

bought up by development.

No one's living there yet.

What's your friend's name?

Miguel Silva.

I've never heard of him.

Is there a rental-car service

or a taxi?

Tell you what. Check back

with us in a few months.

The way things are going,

we'll be real modernized

by then.

You said there was

a construction site.

Is there a crew shuttle?

What's with all the questions?

Hey, take it easy.

Don't mind him, he's not

the welcome-wagon type.

Yes, there's a shuttle,

leaves in the morning

about 5 in the a.m.

But I'm telling you,

there ain't nothing out there.

Thanks for your help.

Have yourself a good day.

What the hell?

I'll tell him.

MAN 1

MAN 2

Excuse me.

You speak English?

S. Yes.

Did I hear you say something

about, uh, New Hope?

Why?

I wanna go there.

I-I know it.

- I'll pay you.

How much?

Twenty bucks?

Okay, 40.

Okay, but up-front.

Okay, get in.

MAN 3

Wait on me, Francisco, okay?

Si, Papa.

Andale.

My son,

he should know better.

Then he wouldn't be a boy.

Si, verdad.

Whose place is that?

Uh, I-I--

I don't know.

Halicorp.

Why is a defense

and reconstruction outfit

building houses in this area?

Hombre, it's cheap.

The land, the labor.

First the plant,

then the housing.

Now the corporate offices.

It's good for today,

keeps me working.

But next year it's

too expensive to live here,

and I have to move

my family again.

Who knows? Maybe north to Aho.

What kind of plant?

I-I-- I don't know.

I wasn't on that build,

you know?

I, uh-- Listen, hombre,

I-- I need to make a stop, okay?

And-- 'Cause I gotta load

the truck.

Maybe you can walk down past

the construction and I'll--

I'll pick you up

as soon as I'm done.

Look--

Now, look, it's just I can't

bring you to the job site,

you know?

And I'll only be

about 10 minutes.

You know, you should

probably take your bag.
