Look, I did my time.

It took me 20 years

to make, uh, sergeant,

and I had to come

to this hick town to do it.

It would've taken any

sh*t-head peckerwood two years.

Look, I don't

owe anybody nothing...

But I know why

that badass sheriff hates you.

He's afraid of you.

You come back from overseas...

with medals.

Everybody admires you.

You're a man that was ready

to challenge him

and get those people

in the town to stand up to him,

and he knew that, so, uh...

He did something about it.

He stopped you.

You... and me.

Now all I want is out.

I tell you one thing, though.

You go out there after them...

you're going alone.

So I go alone.

You can't stay here.

I'm not leaving.

Look, I got a...

an extra room in my place.

You're welcome to it.

Come right over there right now.

No, I'm gonna stay.

Jesus.

Look, I'll be around somewhere

if you need me, all right?

You broke the rules.

I make the rules.

Then we're all

gonna go down the shitter

unless you keep these animals

out of this town. That's the deaI.

We're in trouble as it is with that

idiot brother of yours raping that girI.

I take care of Ray.

All right, all right.

Take it easy, take...

You guys are nutty, that's all.

Showing up at the funeraI...

You take care of your business,

and I take care of mine.

- Fine.

- You bet.

Fine.

Hello!

Hello!

Hello!

Yeah?

Oh, take it easy.

Take it easy.

How you was been?

Tengo un surprise for you.

Yeah, surprise.

Jamie.

Okay, let's go.

Bring it on down.

Okay, hold it.

Hold it.

Hey, Jorge,

show him the console, man.

You gonna love it, man.

Huh? You like?

Yeah, it's reaI nice.

What's in that box?

What do you think, huh?

It's another supply.

You know, you have

a very good friend.

Go on.

Hi, baby.

It's daddy.

Her vitaI signs are good.

I think she's gonna pull out of it.

Good.

Straight.

Father Healey brought that.

Oh. Well, thank him for me.

I will.

Daddy got something

for you, sweetheart.

Here, I can open it.

I'll open it for you.

Look at that.

Look at that.

It's just like the other one.

It's gonna be all right,

Jennifer.

I promise, for you,

it's gonna be all right.

Seen some maggots on Pass Road.

They might be headed

out toward the Matthew place.

Where you going, Ed?

Sheriff wants ribs.

Hold down the fort.

Damn it!

Oh, Ray.

Jesus, Ray.

It couldn't have been

nobody but you.

You're still not gonna

say nothing, huh?

Prove it.

Prove it?!

You still have to prove it.

Do I?!

You doing that time inside there

didn't do anything for you, did it?

You were an a**hole then,

and you're a bigger a**hole now.

But you are f***ing up.

And the next time you go away,
