Dead West Page #4

I'm running is a bank,

in which case that makes

you either blind or stupid.

What'd you say to me?

You heard me, buddy.

I speak pretty clearly.

I ain't your buddy,

and you ain't pretty.

I have a low tolerance

for people like you,

people who think

they can walk around

talking to people like that,

like they're smarter

than everyone,

like they know everything.

All I know is I want you

out of my station right now

before my husband comes

in and takes you out.

Do you think that scares me?

You know what I could do to you

before he gets back?

Just leave.

Why don't you give

me one good reason

why I shouldn't gut you

like a fish right here?

Because my baby girl's sleeping

right there behind the counter

and you'd wake her up.

Hi there.

Oh. Well hello, young man.

- How much for a cup of iced tea?

- 50 cents.

- Sounds good.

- Great.

- I'll take one.

- Great, great.

- There you go.

- Tony:
Thank you.

Thanks. Oh, thank you.

Say...

This the place where a man

was killed a few weeks back?

It was.

You here when it happened?

I was here.

Who are you?

Oh, no one.

Just curious is all.

Did you happen to catch a

glimpse of the guy who did it?

Look, I told everything

I saw to the police.

Tony:
I know.

I'm sorry, I'm not the police.

I just have a...

Personal connection to him.

Did you see him?

Well, there was a man that

bought an iced tea from me

before anything happened,

and, well, then he was gone

when we found that poor man...

All cut up.

What'd he look like?

He looked awful.

He'd been stabbed, I don't know,

two dozen times.

No no no no no no,

the man you saw beforehand.

Oh. Oh...

Yeah. Um...

He had brown hair.

It was slicked back.

Um... 30.

He was handsome.

He had on a brown

leather jacket,

and he had a really nice smile.

He bought some iced

tea and then just left.

Did you see his car?

Yes, yes. It was orange.

It sort of looked

like a pumpkin.

Okay.

Thanks for your time

and for the tea.

Oh, sure.

Sorry I bothered you.

Oh, no bother at all.

Go with god.

I will.

What can I get you?

A large popcorn, extra butter,

and a large coke.

You got it.

Are you in line?

Yes, ma'am.

Oh, okay. Just checking.

You enjoying the movie so far?

Um... it's okay.

Turns out it's not that fun

to watch a scary movie

at the drive-in theater...

By yourself.

You could say that again.

I'm flying solo myself.

$6.75.

Keep the change.

Well... it was nice meeting you.

Lila.

Man:
Lila.

That is a beautiful name.

What's yours?

Justin.

Well...

Justin...

What do you say we

watch the movie together

after I grab my drink?

Sounds real nice.

Are you...

Sure you wanna watch a movie

with a stranger?
