Pennsylvania.

I live at

the end of East Rio Street.

Jefferson County, Mississippi.

OK, well, I'll give you a call.

No you won't.

You come, or don't.

End of East Rio Street.

You pay expenses, too.

OK.

Um... well...

So, I guess I'm

going to Mississippi.

But just to talk to him.

He said he would do it?

Just to talk to him.

You sure he's good?

I'm sure he's cheap.

You want to grab a drink first?

Dude, we just talked

about this on the phone.

I didn't know if you meant it.

Look, I don't mean to be a dick,

but can we please

just go to the motel?

F***!

F***!

The store's sending

you to Mississippi?

Yes.

It's just for the weekend.

It'll be fine.

Hey, there.

You ready to go?

Sure.

All right.

Where do you want to go?

The Grill.

We could go some place nicer.

I like the Grill.

All right.

We're just gonna see people

we know, and, you know,

it's not private, and...

Is that a problem, Teddy?

No.

I just thought, you know,

you might want to... The Grill

it is.

Hey, Teddy.

Hey.

Hey, Hank.

How are ya?

I'm good.

How are you guys?

Good seeing you.

You know what you want?

Yep.

What can I get you guys?

Hi, Sally.

Hey, Teddy.

Molly.

Hey.

How are the kids?

Oh, kids are great.

Y'all know what you're getting?

Yeah, I'm going to have

the chicken fried steak,

I'll have the spaghetti,

with the, uh, meat sauce.

I'm going to stick

with water for now.

Water.

Yeah.

Can you get me a beer?

All right.

I can handle that.

I'll be right back.

Thank you.

Why'd you get

the... the spaghetti?

They don't even do

it like you like it.

They don't have the

parm... the... the cheese.

I mean, if you

want spaghetti, we

can go to a place

that does that.

I want the spaghetti here.

All right?

All right.

Yeah.

Yeah.

Sure.

You do anything fun today?

No.

Fair enough.

Whatever.

You're gonna be all

right to get home?

Yep.

I'm good.

Well, maybe I could swing

by after work tomorrow?

Maybe bring something

by the house,

or... or we could go out

again, if... if... if you want.

I got no problem with that.

I'll cook something up.

Is that all right?

What did I just say?

I guess I'll see

you tomorrow, then?

What you want?

Uh, does Howard Blake live here?

Who's that?

My name is Gordon.

Do you know where I

can find Howard Blake?

Come on in.

Come on in.

What you want?

Uh... I... I just... we spoke the

other day on the phone about

a potential job?

Why you come around here?

I'm ain't got no work for you.

No, it was... it was

about me hiring you

for a job in, uh, Pennsylvania?

Oh.

You're the man with the money.

Yeah.

So, how do we... how do

we go about doing this?

Take your shirt off.

What's that?
