to your earlobe.

That's right.

You ain't so dumb.

Ah!

How's my Baby Girl?

Well, my ass is kinda sore from the ride.

Man:

Amber Lynn.

I'm sorry.

Where you at?

Amber:

I am...

I'm at a gas station.

It's, uh, over on highway 22.

It's across the street from the old American

gas station that's closed down.

I'm about three hours from school.

So, uh...

How's my Teddy Bear?

Oh, he's been mopin' around like

a lost pup ever since you left.

God, I haven't seen him this sad

since ma and pa passed away.

See, I knew it.

This was a mistake, I'm coming home.

Like hell you are.

I didn't raise no quitter.

Bearwill be just fine.

What if I can't do this?

Oh, Amber, that's horse sh*t,

We've talked about this.

You're just nervous, like always.

Listen, Baby Girl.

Do you think they would've

wasted a scholarship

on someone they don't believe in?

I guess not.

What's our motto?

The strength is in the Strickland.

It's always there, don't you

neverforget it, okay?

Me and Bearwill always be

here foryou.

You're the best, Brody.

And will you tell Teddy Bear

that I love my gift.

I will, Baby Girl.

We love you.

Be sure to give us a call as soon

as you get to school, all right?

I will, I... I promise.

All right, bye.

Yer all filled up!

How much do I owe you?

Where's your bathroom?

Round yonder.

Aah!

Woman:

Man:

Ah, f***!

Ah, f***.

Whoo!

God, not my mouth. Jesus.

What the hell,

didn't you hear me slappin' skins?

Well, stick herwith the others.

And where the f*** is your brother?

Well, tell him to get his pecker

out ofthem goats and get the pit ready.

Now go on.

Git! Go!

God! That's a

dumb motherf***er.

Billy Bob, Squirm's

always doin' that sh*t.

You need to train

that grunting dog better.

He's a f***ing inbred,

he ain't a dog.

You can't learn him any

betterthan a grunt.

You ain't finished yet, are you?

'Cause I ain't.

You thinking about

them nasty whores?

I don't want them here.

Yeah, well it don't matter

what you want.

It's what pa wants.

That's crazy talk,

you run this family, not pa.

I want us to have a baby...

Goddamn it, that's sick!

You're my f***in' sister.

You want some little turd snatcher

like Royce or Squirm

popping out of you?

Now get yourturd clippers out

ofthere and get out.

- But, Billy...

- Go on!

Time to go to work.

Sheriffto base, I'm-a be out

at the Stricklands'.

Man:

Right.

Brody.

Take a seat, sheriff.

I called the school.

Her roommate said she

never showed up.

What are campus police oing?

You did report it, right?

Brody, my hands are tied

for 48 hours.

Ah, come on.

She's not officially missing yet.

Maybe she just got sidetracked.

It ain't out ofthe ordinary for

a college girl to forget to call her kin.

Amber ain't ordinary.

There's nothing more I can do.

Yeah? Well, there's something I can do.

Listen, I'll call ya if I hear anything.

We're gonna find Baby Girl.

You wanted to see me?

Oh, yeah.

Tell your pa he'll have

to run things until we get back.

I've got a lot of clients

coming in tomorrow.

Bow season opens.

Where y'all goin'?

Huntin'.

Hi, pa.

We've gathered all the girls,

just like you asked.

Pretty soon I'll be

planting your seeds.

She's watching overthem, yes sir.

Now you just rest now.

I love you.

Oh!

Princess is awake.

Where am I?

Hey! Hey!

Hey...

You want them to hearyou?

Oh, on second thought,

call 'em, huh?

Yeah, I bet they'd like

you betterthan me.

Shut up, you whiny b*tch!

Two f***in' days you've been cryin'.

Hey!

- What?

- What is your problem?

She's traumatized.

Like I give a rat's ass.

I'm tired ofhearing her!

Well, I've only been conscious

forfive minutes and I'm tired ofhearing you.

So, come on, just leave her alone.

Orwhat? Huh?

Or I'll make you.

Oh!

Now, is that a... a threat

or a promise, b*tch?

- Or a promise...?

- Stop! Stop!

Please, I'm sorry.

Yeah.

I'm sorry.

You are sorry.

You just keep your cocksucker closed.

Hey. You'll be okay.

It's gonna be okay.

What's your name?

Jenny.

Hey, Jenny.

I'm Amber.

How long have you been

in this place?

Two days. I think.

What about her?

Longer... But I'm not sure.

They killed him,

But I need you to concentrate.

- I can't think about this! I...
