That's right.

I have to take you

to the asylum

so they can put you out

of your misery, you useless mutt!

(SIGHS)

What the hell

is going on there?

(DOOR OPENS)

MARTHA:
Look at what

your stupid beast did.

It's always the same.

ROBERT:

He can't help it.

MARTHA:
Can't you teach

him some discipline,

for Christ's sake.

Oh, come on, I told you

a million times.

What you call my beast

is my problem.

Yeah, right.

But when it comes to

cleaning up the mess,

who's problem is it then, huh?

Listen, Martha,

mind your own business.

Go back in the store,

do what you're paid to do.

Besides, you have

a customer waiting.

I'll take care of this.

Don't worry.

(DOOR OPENS)

How can I help you?

I'm looking for my friend.

Dark, pretty girl.

Our car broke down after we

left here this morning and...

Do you remember me?

I had a necklace that I dropped.

Sure, I remember you.

Yeah, and my girlfriend

went back here to try to

get someone to help us

and in the meantime,

your mechanic drove by.

He's not my mechanic.

He's my boss.

Oh, I'm sorry. You're...

You're boss drove by

and he offered me

to fix the problem

and I'm looking for my girlfriend,

so have you...

Have you seen her?

I'm afraid nobody

has been in this store

since you left this morning.

Is there any chance she might

have taken another road?

I don't think so, hon.

This is the only road connecting

the nearest villages

for more than 10 miles.

And this happens to be the

only gas station along that road.

There used to be much more

traffic around here.

But ever since the military

left their base,

life around here

came to a standstill.

Okay.

Well...

Maybe your friend went back

to the place where your car broke down.

Yeah, maybe.

How much do I owe you for...

for gas and repair?

Oh, can I have a lighter fluid?

Sure.

Thanks.

That's on the house.

All of it?

-Yes.

Oh, thanks.

Have a nice day.

Goodbye.

SANDRA ON VOICEMAIL:

Hi, it's me.

I may be doing

the nasty right now,

so I can't come to the phone.

As for the rest,

you know the drill. Bye.

(BEEPS)

Hi, Sandra, it's me.

Where are you?

I'm at the car station

and the car is fixed.

I'm heading back to the spot where

the car broke down.

Please give me a call

as soon as you hear this.

I'm getting really worried.

Love you, baby.

Bye-bye.

(DOOR CLOSES)

(CAR STARTS)

Sandra!

Sandra!

Sandra!

Sh*t!

Wait a minute.

This is the road

to the old military camp.

Sandra, where are you?

(STARTS ENGINE)

Where am I?

(STARTS ENGINE)

Great. I finally found the

middle of nowhere.

(ENGINE HISSING)

No. No, no, no,

don't do this to me please.

Sh*t!

What the f*** is this!
