I really should.

I don't think so.

I don't think so.

But there is a great

bottle of wine in the fridge.

Okay.

To Bonnie.

Where'd you get that?

It's not mine.

No.

It belonged to Jedidiah Larkin.

Wagon train scout,

mountain man, trailblazer.

Even tried his hand

at being a lawman.

And this was his only

constant companion.

He was the strong,

silent type - a loner.

He loved adventure,

danger, new frontiers.

- Did he ride a motorcycle?

- No, he didn't ride a motorcycle.

Just after the civil war,

he got fed up with

what the rail roads and the bureaucrats

and everybody else

was turning the frontier into

so he sold everything he owned

and he disappeared.

And nobody knows where he went.

He went to San Francisco.

He caught a freighter to South America

and... got lost in the arms

of the Amazon...

lady.

You are full of sh*t.

My grandfather used

to tell me stories.

He would get drunk first,

then he would sit on the bed

and tell stories about the old west.

About his father, Joshua Randall.

About all the other Josh Randalls,

Jed Larkins.

Nicky, that sounds terrible.

Thanks.

You're welcome.

Bacon? Sausages?

- Neither.

- You get both.

So do I.

Buttered toast?

- Yeah. Why not?

- All right. This is how I do it.

- This is a news break.

- It's nice, Nicky.

- A terrorist bombing rocked Los Angeles.

- I think so.

Here. Last night about 10:00...

Oh, my God, Nicky. Look at this.

A series of bombs went off

at a Los Angeles movie theater

killing 138 people.

That's terrible.

Yeah. Have some coffee.

...received a telephone call from

a man claiming to be Malak al Rahim

one of the world's most

notorious terrorists.

The man claimed

responsibility for the attack

and told the newspaper

exactly when and where...

Hi, Bill. I forgot all about

you coming here this morning.

Bill, this is Terry.

Terry, this is Bill Stanford.

- One of my best-paying clients.

- My pleasure.

- Nice to meet you.

- I'm sorry for being rude...

but I'm running late, and we have

to go over some business.

Perhaps you could excuse us.

Why don't we take a walk?

We'll be back in a couple of minutes.

Bill, did you see this?

But I would like to say that the police

force and our intelligence agencies

are workin' overtime on this problem.

Yeah. Terrible, isn't it?

Hundreds more were injured,

with several listed as critical.

Many more are feared missing,

and rescue crews

are searching through

the rubble at this hour.

Authorities say positive identification

of some of the bodies may be impossible.

Bill Stanford?

I like that.

What the hell are you doing here?

Now that's a nice way

to talk to an old friend

you haven't seen in three years.
