Fly ball,

And it's gone, a home run.

What'll it be, buddy?

Um...

Let me have a Coke, please.

Hey! Hey!

Are you in the movies?

My friend says

you're in the movies.

MAN 1:
Let's see your hand.

DEALER:
Change for a hundred.

Let's see your hand.

What's that

MAN 2:

All right, knock it off.

Let's go. Outside.

Let's go.

DEALER:

And no more bets.

No more bets, please.

Anything for you?

Uh, let me have a

Jim Beam on the rocks.

I'll be right back.

DEALER:

Thank you, sir.

What is so goddamn

fascinating about me?

Howard! Howard!

Why do you keep

dogging me around?

Howard, Howard, it's me.

It's me, Cliff. Cliff Ormsby.

Cliff Ormsby?

Yeah. Yeah.

Plains High, 1959.

1959?

Yeah, don't you remember me?

I don't remember anything!

Nothing that happened

back then happened to me.

Okay?

All right.

Goddamn it.

Hey, I was looking for you.

There you are. I thought

you may have

skipped out on me.

WOMAN :

Mr. Spence seems

to have done a good job

cutting himself off completely

from family and friends.

I have no traces to immediate

family except his mother.

She lives in Elko, Nevada.

That's very good, Ms. Rontz.

Thank you, sir.

That's excellent work.

Thank you.

Mothers are always

the last refuge, aren't they?

Sure are, sir.

Just a tick.

Uh, sir, are you there?

Are you still there

And you can contact

the car rental company

and tell them we've located

Mr. Spence's car.

Very good.

At the Rio

Grande bus terminal.

Rio Grande. Where's that, sir?

In Salt Lake City.

All right.

I'll be back in touch shortly.

Bah!

AUTOMATED VOICE:

Round one.

All right.

I'm ready. Are you ready?

Get ready.

I'm ready. Ready? All right.

Fight!

Uppercut. Left hook.

Uppercut. Jab. Jab.

Come on.

Right. Right jab.

Left hook. Uppercut.

Get up! Get up!

What's the matter with you?

What do you

think you're doing?

Get up!

Take it easy. Take it easy.

Take it easy.

Take it easy.

GUARD:

Hey. Take it easy.

Take it easy.

Hang on!

What, this second?

GUARD:

Give me your arm.

Goddang it!

GUARD:
Give me your arm.

HOWARD:

Just hang on a

second, would you?

I need to take a pee.

You can pee at the station.

I've been having

to pee for a long time.

All right. Wait, wait.

Morning, Charlie.

Morning, Mrs. Spence.

What's happened to Howard?

Well, he was having

a little too

much fun last night.

Weren't you, Howie?

Hmm.

You keep an eye on him, now,

Mrs. Spence.

LULU:

Oh, I will. Don't you

worry about that, Charlie.

CHARLIE:

To tell you the truth,

I didn't hardly

recognize him at all.
