His Kind of Woman Page #2

And what's the one

I'm gonna object to?

You'll have to leave the country.

For how long?

Say a year.

Well, it just so happens

I've given up my home here.

See? Already your luck's turning.

- Where does it change?

- Mexico.

You'll take a plane to Tucson.

From there you'll cross the border

on a bus to Nogales.

A man named Hernandez at the

airfield there will give you your next step.

Aren't you playing this

a little close to the vest?

You may change your mind en route.

You sure that privilege is open to me?

After Nogales, what happens?

Nothing.

There will be plenty of fishing,

hunting, swimming.

You'll be very comfortable.

- And for that I get 50 grand?

- What's better than that?

I'm not knocking it, man,

I'm just trying to understand it.

Here's $5000.

You'll get 10 more when you get

where you're going. It goes to 50.

- That's all I can tell you.

- That's quite a bit.

- You lost your wallet.

- Well, an old friend.

Airplane tickets, credentials.

You really believe in

breaking a man down, don't you?

Just bending him a little, Milner,

that's all.

I'm looking for a man named Hernandez.

I am a man named Hernandez, senor.

I'm a man named Milner.

Dan Milner.

- It's supposed to mean something to you.

- Pardon, senor?

If it should come to you,

I'll be in the caf across the street.

Is it all right if I leave this here?

- S, senor.

You wish a seat on the plane

to Mexico City? Acapulco?

Who knows?

Let's stick around and see, huh?

What'll it be?

You got anything to eat?

Chili.

- And beans?

- And beans.

That was swell.

Your Spanish is pretty good, baby.

Hey, I love that break.

Will you try that again?

How about a drink?

Not for me, no.

But I'd like to buy her one.

- What's she drinking?

- Champagne. Eighteen bucks a bottle.

- I thought she might be alone.

- She is.

You said 18? And the chili.

There's 20.

- Save your dough.

- You tell me a better way to spend it.

She'll be out of your life

before the investment pays off.

She's waiting for a plane she chartered.

Just the bottle, then.

You mind if I join you?

It seems you have.

Hey, you sing pretty good.

I thought I'd buy you a drink.

- I'm drinking champagne.

- I'm hip. Eighteen dollars a bottle.

Not for me.

Champagne's not your drink?

Only on big occasions.

- And this isn't?

- Can't be.

You're waiting for a chartered plane.

You in the oil business, or you just

spending your alimony all at once?

I'm what you'd call

a spoiled child of the rich.

Well, how do you do? I'm what you'd

call a spoiled child of the poor.

- It is here, senorita.

- You sure it's the right one?

- S, the pilot is my friend.

- Just a minute.

You sure you wanna go now?
