No! No!

You're okay.

You're okay now.

I'm gonna take you to the hospitaI.

You're okay.

It's my job to enforce the law

in this town, and I do it.

I have a mind to send you back

right now for that stupid vigilante sh*t.

But you're gonna leave this town,

Matthews, and I mean leave it.

One way or the other,

I'll see to that.

No sh*t.

Don't play with me, boy.

You can only lose.

- Where you going, boy?

- Back to work, sir.

- Back to work?

- Yes, sir.

"Yes, sir. "

I like that.

"Sir. "

Hey! Buck!

Hey, what are you doing here?

What the hell is going on?

Hi, Mr. Matthews.

Will you talk to us?

Were you frightened?

Do you know who

these assailants were?

- How've you been?

- Good. No, I don't. I'd like to know.

- You didn't call me.

- There wasn't time.

When did you get out of prison? Did you

know nurse Reynolds before last night?

Please talk to us, Mr. Matthews.

You used to call me "Buck," Melody.

Remember?

- They gonna give you your job back now.

- Think so?

A reluctant hero, a good Samaritan...

a speciaI breed in these

violent, frightening times.

This is Melody Mendrosa

with mini-cam 6

In front of Buck Matthews' house

on East Canyon Road.

Everyone knows

they're drug runners.

They used to stay out of town,

but about a year and a half ago,

people started seeing

more and more of them.

Now they just do

whatever they wanna do.

What about the sheriff?

Oh, a lot of noise.

He doesn't do anything. Thanks.

J.B.?

Yeah, he arrested

a few of them,

but when they but out on baiI,

they just disappear.

Yeah.

Oh, God.

- You tired?

- Yes.

How tired?

I'm not that tired.

Hello?

Hey, what are you doing here?

Gave the hero the night off, huh?

ReaI nice of 'em, huh?

- Yeah. You want a cold one?

- Sure. Don't mind if I do.

You know, nobody ever

stood up to them before.

They are gonna take it personaI.

You think so?

Yeah, they're gonna try

and pop you on the job

when you're alone

one night...

And then you're

gonna get pissed off,

then the sheriff

is gonna get pissed off,

and all that means

is a hassle for me.

So I'm gonna ask you

to do me a favor...

...since you're not

gonna leave this town.

Ease up on 'em

a little bit...

...untiI I can.

Thanks for the warning.

Thanks for the beer.

Hi.

- Hey. Now how do you feeI?

- Mm, fine.

Jen asleep?

No, she's doing her homework.

Did I hear the telephone?

That was J.B.

He just dropped by.

What did he want?

Buck?

This gun is dirty.

Honey?

You know, sometimes when I

was prison, I'd get a feeling...

...reaI quiet and deep.

You know, just before

something bad would happen.

Same thing in Vietnam.

And you have it?

Yeah.

Now?
