A Call to Return: The Oxycontin Story Page #4

---

Very much.

It's not really my nature to stay

in one place for any stretch of time.

Sometimes I think if I keep moving

forward, nothing bad can catch me.

Am I making any sense?

Yeah.

You don't do it anymore, though.

I mean, you said

you used to drive a truck.

Can I ask you something?

Saint Louis is a long way

from La Salle.

Why are you staying there anyway?

Seemed like as nice a place as any.

We talking about the same

place here? La Salle, Texas?

What's up?

You wouldn't believe me

if I told you.

How do you know that?

Why? What brought you to La Salle?

I used to haul, mostly dairy.

Was through here all the time.

What made you stay?

A girl.

Are you guys still...

Sorry.

Let's get out of here.

Okay.

I guess I should

head back to Saint Louis.

Am I going to see you again?

I didn't know you wanted to.

I'm over there.

And I'm over there.

Bye.

Sunshine.

Sunshine.

Where you at, girl?

What're you doing, sunshine?

It's all right, sweetie,

I just want to talk to you.

There was a man.

There was a man.

There was a man.

There was a man.

Terry?

Joanna?

Joanna?

Joanna.

What happened?

Come on.

Who did this to you?

I did.

What?

I did it to myself.

Why?

I don't know.

Terry, this farmhouse,

you, the town,

they're all connected to me somehow.

What are you talking about?

The mural, in the barn,

I painted the exact same

picture when I was a child.

The seahorse...

Annie...

Until this week, I've never

spent any time in this town.

What happened to her?

She was murdered.

By who?

That depends on who you ask.

I don't understand.

I found her lying in the barn,

just like I found you.

Someone had left her there to die.

And all eyes fell on me.

It belonged to Annie.

It wasn't hers.

What are you talking about?

It's not... I mean...

Why are you doing this?

I don't... Why are you

digging all of this up?

Who are you?

I don't know!

Get out.

Get out of here! Go on!

Can I help you, ma'am?

No, thank you.

Hey, you want some gas?

No, I'm good.

No?

Want an oil change?

No oil change?

Just snacks and goodies?

Yes.

What's going on?

The guy in that picture?

Which guy?

Handsome buck, isn't he?

That's nice,

that was taken a while back.

Okay.

So...

Hello? $4. 75.

What's wrong, sunshine?

Whoa, hey, hey!

You got some change.

Hey, you forgot your change. Hey,

pops, you wanna come take a look?

Shut up! Shut up.

How many times have I told you

not to interrupt me while I'm

talking to customers, nimnuts?

Where'd you get your DNA from, boy?

It's okay.

It's gonna be okay...

What are you doing?

I said what are you doing, girl?

I thought there might be

some parts I could use.

How you doing there, sunshine?
