in 2,700 counties.

I don't know why I was thinking

you might spring for a moteI.

Let's go.

Oh, hey,

I'm not going in there.

Why not?

It's empty.

I'm an ex-con,

and it's illegaI.

Whoop.

Huh?

Let's check out

the bed sltuatlon.

I hope they got a firm rack.

These doggies are tired.

Sweet dreams.

I'm just going to go

sleep in the car.

Yeah, sleep in the car.

Hl, thls Is Maggle.

Please leave a message.

Hl, are you there?

I'm on the road...

with my father.

I think I'm going to be gone

a few days.

You were right.

It hurts me

to say this,

but the only person

who really knows me is him.

And that scares the hell out of me.

Anyway...

I don't know.

Maybe it's too late.

But even If you hate me,

I want you to know

who you're hatlng.

The thlng Is,

I'm not from Canada.

I was born In Secaucus,

New Jersey.

I don't have

any brothers or sisters.

I grew up

without a mother

because my father

drove her away.

I-

Promotlonal perlod ended.

To purchase addltlonal mlnutes,

press 7.

Hello?

Nat!

I got a gun!

Whoa.

Richie.

Don't call me Richie.

Flynny.

Always good

to see you.

Oh.

I slept

like a polar bear.

So good.

I need coffee.

There's a wonderfuI moteI

Comps on coffee

and Danlsh.

The 7-Eleven.

Or we could

buy a cup now.

We're doing

so good here.

Let's not blow it

on luxury items.

Come on.

Come on.

Perfect.

Take it easy.

Lovely.

And It Is just

the safest nelghborhood.

Hi.

Hello.

Can I help you?

Wish you could, darling.

The house is wonderfuI.

We like it.

The fact is,

my partner and I

are looking for something

a little more feng shui-ish.

The house Is wonderful,

though, Isn't It?

Vaulted celllngs.

Take it easy, honey.

It's the first place we've seen.

It's got everything.

Thank you.

Yikes.

We escaped.

Last time I drove

across country,

it took me four days.

Did I tell you that?

No.

A lifetime ago.

Four perfect days.

We wound up on a beach

in Mexico, freezing.

White sand,

clear blue water,

your mother looking up at me

like I was the one.

That's when I asked her

to marry me.

Then we did it,

twice, maybe three times.

Yeah, shake your head.

These are memories.

You'll see what it's like

when things stop happening on command.

Half mast.

I'm not even dead yet.

What are you saying,

you're impotent?

I'm saying, I can't get it up

most of the time.

Since when?

Since...

Uh, it's hard to say.

Couple of years,

maybe five.

Well, have you tried

taking those pills?

They're junk.

They don't work.

Where'd you buy them,

off a fruit truck?

What difference

does it make?

They don't work.

I don't work.

Clock's ticking.

One last frolic

is not going to stop that, is it?
