Oh, gee, Howard, actually--

Oh Lancy pantsy, what you

need is partner, you know.

Someone to kind of ease

a strain and I look

into diversify, you

know what I mean?

It means--

It means that I

share the burden,

I'll be your partner,

shared share alike.

You know, I guess you

still have to be doing most

of the day to day stuff.

Partners.

Well sure, I mean

I've been partner

up with businesses

all over town.

I did jewelry down

to hardware store,

Ben Buffle's Wash-O-Rama.

I'm becoming a regular--

what's that word?

Shake-down artist?

Oh, Lorretta, if I didn't

love that big old behind

of yours so much, I'd pack you

on your worst f***ing nightmare.

Entrepreneur is the

f***ing word, entrepreneur.

So now I'm going to come

here and bring my talents

to bear right here

chopping stuff

and how is that for good news?

Actually, Howard--

No, no, no need to

thank me, it's my pleasure,

and don't worry about

no paper work either.

Whenever you get it done,

we just back date it

to right now.

[laughs]

Hallelujah.

I see, just little--

what that word?

Brains?

No, persistence-- I tell

you something Lorretta,

you going to need serious

attitude adjustment.

Sometime I envy the

single white boy.

On the house, partner.

[laughs]

What you waiting on?

F***ing invitation from

the Queen of England?

More like the

Duke of the Dumb.

Come on chubby cheeks.

What are you looking at?

A grave waiting to be filled.

No, I don't know what

you're talking about.

I'm talking about

somebody plowing some Oates,

Lorretta Oates to be precise.

Susie, I'm a big boy.

Oh, you're a big boy, Lance.

Only Howard Oates is

even a bigger boy.

He finds out about

you and Lorretta,

he is going to put a loop up

around your neck and drag you up

and down Main Street

on his Harley.

Now if you want to keep

your head on your shoulders,

you had better start using it.

I can't do that,

I can't let her go.

It's a grand passion,

that's what it is.

Being with her, shoot, is

like f***ing a firecracker.

[Inaudible Remark]

Howard's beating

up some guys.

He should be gone

till around midnight.

Yeah. Keep dancing

Scarlet, keep dancing.

Oh, it's a problem all

right, it's a problem.

See what the problem is,

just hang around up back

to trailer park, wait 'till

he walks by, [inaudible].

Well, it ain't the

doing it that's hard,

it's getting away with it.

Now, no matter how you cut

it or slice it, Howard turns

up with a bullet,

somebody's going

to be looking in our direction.

Lance, you're

too smart as all.

God make things complicated,

everybody hates him

and everybody give a

charity if he turned

up dead, so just do it.
