Red Rock West Page #2

Hi, Doc. This the guy that brought him in?

Yeah. Matt, can I talk to you a minute?

(Phone ringing)

Going somewhere?

NURSE:
Red Rock County Hospital...

Yeah, my car's out there and I was...

It's in a red zone and I was gonna move it.

- Matt.

- Yeah?

That was the Sheriff.

He says he's on his way over.

- You didn't call him, did you?

- What do you think?

- You got some ID on you?

- Yeah.

Is there a problem, Officer?

Yeah.

Looks like we have an attempted homicide

on our hands.

Homicide?

What are you talking about?

It was an accident.

Well, then how do you explain these?

He's been shot twice in the stomach.

(No parking)

(Dr. on call)

What about Kurt? How's he doing?

He's pretty bad off

but the doctor says he's gonna make it.

Well, if there's any change in his condition,

you let me know.

Michael Williams.

Well, Michael, you're gonna be spending

some time with us...

until we can get to the bottom of this.

Wayne, can I talk to you for a minute?

- You really gonna hold this guy?

- Why? You got somebody else, Matt?

No, but it doesn't make much sense

he'd shoot him...

then bring him to the hospital, does it?

Yeah, well. Odessa, Texas, huh?

That's not too far. I guess we can always

just get him on the phone...

if we need to ask him any questions.

You and Russ impound the car.

I'll take him down to the station.

Yes, sir.

Get in.

(Sheriff)

(Red Rock

County Hospital)

All right, kid. Start talking...

'cause you got about two minutes

to tell me what the f*** is going on.

I just thought you needed

a stupid bartender or something.

- Don't f*** with me!

- I'm not.

Okay, who else knows about this?

- Nobody.

- I said, don't f*** with me!

I'm not.

(You are leaving

Red Rock)

What about the guy in the hospital?

What happened?

I don't know anything about that.

You don't have to worry about me.

I'm not gonna say anything to anyone.

- What about the money?

- It's in my car, in the glove compartment.

Good.

So what do you think?

Why don't you just drop me off?

We'll both forget about

the whole damn thing.

(Hey Porter by Johnny Cash

playing on radio)

What the f*** are you doing?

My car broke down.

Where? I don't see a car.

- It's just over that ridge.

- Over that ridge, huh?

Yeah.

You're one lucky son of a b*tch, aren't you?

If I hadn't had my brakes just done...

I'd be picking your brains

out of my radiator.

F***.

Listen, I hate to ask you this,

but do you think you could give me a ride?

No, I don't know.

You aren't dangerous, are you?

No.

I just...

I just need a ride.

You can drop me off

at the nearest gas station.
