you guys, you're too busy.

I'm surprised she let you get

away to do this thing with me.

Here we go! Here we go!

Oh, thank God. Come on.

Here we go.

Whoa. Wait a minute.

Oh, sh*t. Wait. Wait.

Wait! Wait! Wait! Wait!

God damn it!

Agh! Ow!

God damn it!

Dude, are you okay?

Hold up!

Hold on!

Sh*t! Hold on!

Wait. Wait!

Hey! Wait!

Hey!

Hold on!

Hey!

Yo.

Whoa. Whoa.

Hey. Car trouble?

Yeah. We, uh...

We broke down a

few minutes ago.

Well, I-I'm not

much good on cars.

I'll give you a

lift into town.

That would be great.

Thank you so much.

Just let me grab my bag.

Hey! Look, a ride. Wait! Wait!

Sorry.

Hold on. We don't need it.

What do you mean

we don't need it?

Sorry, sir.

Nothing to worry about, son.

I- I'm harmless

No, it's not...

No. I, uh...

No, it's all right.

It's not that. It's

just that the...

The truck, it's not broken.

What do you mean

it's not broken?

It's... I took a wire out.

It's not a big deal.

What are you talk... Um...

One second.

What are you talking about?

I thought that we were gonna

have some good conversations

like the last time, you know?

But instead I got

cellphones and freeways

and motels and f***ing

sports radio.

And, uh, I mean, I tried to

get off the beaten path.

You just decided

to go to sleep,

so I thought this would give

us a chance to catch up.

Thank you, sir.

Are you out of your f...

You sure everything's all right?

Yes. Oh, yeah.

I... I am definitely sure.

Okay.

Ta-da. All right, thank you.

Whoa, whoa, whoa. Wait. Wait!

Wait! Wait! Wait!

Put it in.

It's no big deal, man.

Put it in! I want

to see it start.

It's just a wire.

Sorry about this.

Just give us a second.

It's just a wire, man.

Look. Okay.

Here.

Happy?

You boys good?

Yeah. Yeah.

Thank you. Thank you so much.

I appreciate it.

Have a good day.

Sorry. Thank you for stopping.

Are you insane?!

Huh?

You stage a breakdown

in the middle of the desert

so that we can talk?

Yeah, and we've had our longest

conversation in the whole trip.

I guess that's a coincidence.

I could have broken my neck

falling down that goddamn hill.

I told you not go up there.

We could have had

a perfectly good talk sitting

right here... Talk?!

But you had to go up and

climb a fricking Mountain.

That was not a talk.

That was you stopping us a

hundred miles from nowhere

so that you could spend a

few uninterrupted minutes

bashing my wife and job!

What kind of a ring was it?

What?

The engagement ring.

What kind was it?

What do you mean, what kind?
