bones down there . Some clothing, too.

Sheriff?

What's up, Henry?

I don't know. It might

be too much to ask.

Go ahead and ask. Ask away, Henry.

Well, right before

I killed that young girl,

we were gonna have a milkshake.

This reminded me that I haven't

had a milkshake in a long while.

Just wondering if I could have a

milkshake before we go back to the prison.

A milkshake?

Mm.

Sure, Henry.

Ain't no big deal.

You earned it, confessing

to all those crimes and all.

Hey, boys, we're goin' for milkshakes!

So you started in Wasilla, and

then you said you went to Alabama.

- Mm-hmm.

- So where did you go from there?

Uh, Lubbock. Right here.

- Lubbock?

- Mm-hmm.

- Hmm.

- You sure it was Lubbock?

- Mm-hmm.

- Don't you think you would' stopped in Dallas first?

If Henry says it was

Lubbock, it's Lubbock.

I apologize, sir.

Let's give Henry the

benefit of the doubt.

He's been hard pressed to regurgitate

a lot of information over

these last three weeks.

I'm sure it's very stressful.

I appreciate that, Sheriff,

your understanding and all.

But, actually, Officer Miner just

reminded me of a murder I must've committed

when I was under the influence of drugs.

Well, that's good, Henry.

Dan, hand me that file.

Young girl...

missing for three years.

They

found her--

Now, see, I do remember now.

I, uh, I strangled her and

tossed her off the side of

the road right outside of town.

It says here you stabbed her.

Well, I stab them after I strangle them.

Trying to throw you boys off a bit.

[phone rings]

Texas Rangers, this is Deputy Miner.

Sheriff, this looks

like it's for Henry.

Go ahead, Henry.

Hello, this is Henry.

Uh, Sheriff, this is a news reporter,

wants to know some personal information.

Give me that.

- Who is this?

-Phil Johnson, journalist.

How in the f*** you get this number?

Huh? Who gave you the number?

I could arrest you just for callin' it.

No disrespect, Sheriff Larabie,

but your brother gave me the number.

Said you'd have no problem

with me interviewing Mr. Lucas.

- My brother?

-Yes, sir.

What paper you write for?

Best paper in Texas. Dallas Star,sir.

I'll tell you what.

I'll let you talk to Henry as long

as you report about me and my Rangers

and the professional job they's

doin' about the case and all.

Certainly, sir. You have my word.

I will arrest you if I don't see at

least one paragraph about my Rangers.

- Henry.

- Yes, sir?

Just an old friend of mine

wants to ask a few questions.

- Hello?

- Go ahead and sit down.

Yes? This is Henry.

Mr. Lucas, I've got a lot

of facts about you currently,

but I wanted to learn

more about you personally--

how you became a, uh...
