Come on in and sit down.

This is Mike Cella.

- Hey, Lieutenant.

I'm gonna be seeing you soon.

The judge moved the case up.

We go to trial in two weeks.

Oh! Thank God!

I gotta tell you, man,

I am so ready to go home.

I'll be the first to buy

you a beer-- the first of many.

And listen, thank you.

Really thank you, man.

Take care of yourself, all right?

- Okay.

Congratulations, son.

That's it.

Thank you so much.

Thank you very much.

Mmm.

- Yes!

Thank you.

Taxi taxi!

What the hell do you

think you're doing?

We're US Marshals, not amateurs.

I know you've been sneaking out

of the apartment we got you

and coming to this motel.

- I've been--

I've been seeing someone.

What, you couldn't wait

till you got back home

to start hooking up

with random girls?

It-- it's not like that, okay?

Oh.

Is she special?

Yeah.

Very.

Now I'm curious.

So tell me about her.

I said tell me about her!

She's kind of a smartass.

So far I like her

- Yeah?

She likes to run her mouth a lot.

She's beautiful.

She forgets that sometimes.

Mm-hmm.

And when this

whole thing is over,

she's coming back

to Long Beach with me.

She's thinking about it.

It wouldn't be dating

in secret anymore.

You'd finally get to meet

all my idiot friends.

It'd be like a real couple.

Maybe you feel a certain way

about this girl right now,

then when you get back home--

Nah. I know how

I feel about her.

Yeah?

Prove it.

Hiya.

Good evening.

Do you have a reservation?

All I have are crossed fingers.

Well, I'll see what I can do for you.

Good golly, you got some

pretty looking nails there, girl.

Thank you. Some people say

they match my eyes.

That they do.

Well, it looks like you're in luck.

We have vacancies.

It will run you $89,

which includes tax.

- It includes tax?

Mm-hmm.

- All right.

Will it just be you by yourself?

- Actually me and my buddy.

Okay.

- One room, two beds.

Non-smoking,

a couple of nights.

All right, farther back today.

All right.

All right, go.

Good good.

Better. You're still doing

one thing wrong.

It's what everyone does.

You're anticipating the recoil.

Okay, you're expecting

the gun to kick up,

so you're compensating

by pulling down.

Okay.

- By the time the gun kicks up,

the bullet's long gone.

Okay, so just forget about the recoil.

It doesn't matter

every single time you pull the trigger.

Put your cans on.

You'd be surprised by

how accurate you can get.

Oh, look at you.

Very cute.

Thank you.

You're right though.

I do hesitate.

It's like every time I get my target

between the crosshairs

I wait a second and then

I start shaking, you know?

You see, but you're not

hitting the target.
