Seems to me like

a big old waste of time.

You should probably just

turn that old rust

bucket of yours around and...

head back

to where you came from.

That's for you.

From the Region Commander.

You wanna argue about it,

you can give 'em a call

and you can sort it out.

But I'm guessing you don't want

any extra attention out here.

Well, I can tell you now

I ain't got time

to be anybody's cattle dog,

especially yours.

Anyway...

old Ruby Rose,

she's as mad as hell.

Wants you out of here

quick as a snail's fart.

Oh, yeah?

Yeah.

Best get packin'.

It's all off-grid.

Gas fridge and stove.

It's a bit rough,

but should be quiet enough.

What's the old Winchester for?

Mostly wild dogs.

And whatever else

comes out of the desert.

Ferals around here

have been mixing

with the dingos.

Making some crazy half-breed.

Wilder than the purebreds.

Twice as cunning.

Just a word of warning.

You see, out here...

folks don't take

too kindly to outsiders.

So if you do want

to go lookin' around,

just be careful

where you step.

There's plenty

of snakes about.

[door closes]

[plane passing overhead]

[vehicles approaching]

Take your hands off your gun!

Take your hands

off your f***ing gun!

Now drop to your knees slowly!

Put your hands on your head.

Put your hands

on your f***in' head!

[woman speaking

foreign language]

Go.

[Johnny] How're ya goin'?

You can call me Johnny.

Can I get you

a cold refreshment?

You want a soft drink? Beer?

Do you realize you

were... intercepted well

within a restricted area?

You know, it's a f***in'

dangerous worksite out here.

You know,

you could have been injured.

Well, even worse than that.

What were you doing out here?

I just got lost.

You get lost much,

Detective?

And what'd you

see out there tonight?

A beautiful sunset.

Oh, beautiful sunset, yeah.

[snorts]

You might wear a badge,

work for the Crown.

So do we.

The difference is that

we keep this country

in business.

See, it's all about...

it's all about standards

of living, you know?

We can't stop the wheel turning

for anyone, including you.

So I suggest...

I suggest that you...

you get on your horse

and ya f***in' ride

out of here while ya can.

Go on.

Drive safe, though.

[chuckles] Drive safe.

Hooroo.

Mayor's invited you

to morning tea.

She'll be expecting ya.

What were you doing out

at Furnace Creek last night?

You just can't go

wanderin' round like that.

You cross the border

at Furnace Creek, copper or not,

they got their

rights to kill ya.

You know what

goes on out there?

What are you talking about?

Talking about a plane

full of Asian girls.

It's all done off-site.

They fly in, they fly out.
