In front of your nose.
Earl, what on earth
are you doing?
I told you, I'm taking
a couple days off.
I ain't had a vacation
or been anywhere
since that cousin of yours
married that chiropractor
over there in Shreveport.
Here.
Gimme these.
Where are you going?
Well, I don't know exactly.
I'm gonna take my
fishing pole with me,
and maybe I'll do some
fishing somewhere.
What about the shop?
Sonny will take care.
Earl...
This is about your mama, isn't it?
Yeah, Ruby, I guess it is.
It's about mama, yeah.
Sorry.
Chicago, yeah.
Do you have a listing for
a Raymond Murdock?
Raymond Lee.
No, ma'am, I don't have a street.
Well, how many Raymonds
are there?
Hell, sh*t, give me all of them.
Well, I'm sorry to bother you.
Thank you, sir.
Uh, yes, sir, is this Raymond Murdock?
Well, now, are you
the Raymond Murdock
on the police force?
You're not.
How you doin' today?
Doin' all right.
Can I help you?
Where's the main police
station at around here?
There's a bunch of main police
stations. Which one you looking for?
I'm not real sure.
You the guy looking
for Raymond Murdock?
Yes, sir. I understand he's
a policeman or used to be.
He works downtown
at the mayor's office.
Pardon me. You know where I
can find the mayor's office?
Do you have an appointment?
I don't wanna see the mayor.
I'm looking for a policeman named
Raymond Lee Murdock. Ray Murdock?
He's right over there
in that snack bar.
He just went in there
to tell lies and drink coffee.
He's already been out here
lying to me this morning.
Thank you.
Mm-hmm.
Can we do something
for you, sir?
Are you Raymond Murdock?
Does he owe you money
or know your wife?
No, sir, he don't.
Well, then I'm
R- R- Ray Murdock.
Could I talk to you
for a minute?
Go ahead. I mean somewhere
else besides here?
I'm on my break now.
What's it got to do with?
Well, it's a personal thing.
It's a family thing.
Be right back.
Ok, now.
I don't really know where
Just start moving your mouth and
see what comes out. Yeah, well...

That's right.
My name's Earl Pilcher.
I know who you are.
What do you want from me?
How'd you know who I was?
I just know.

to look you up.
Are you trying to be funny?
No, no, not at all. No, sir.
four or five days ago,
and she left me a letter...
and your mama and my daddy
and some stuff.
Now, I don't know
why she wanted me
to look you up, but she did.
So I did.
