Let Me Make You a Martyr Page #5

that on around here

and let me toss it up and

play with it a little bit.

(Engine roars)

Forgive me, son, but

I asked about the girl.

Now all of this is fascinating.

We need to get to where

you come into play.

What is it that

you're after, exactly?

(Intense music)

(Door slams)

(Knocks on door)

(Door opens)

(Bluesy music)

[Man] This here's a wildflower.

It ain't nothin'

special but I mean,

I think it's gonna be big.

Hey.

Can I talk to you for a minute?

What 'chu want mister?

How are you today?

Don't worry about how I

is, what 'chu doin' out here?

I'm lookin' for

a man named pope.

You say you lookin' for a pope?

No, a man named pope,

used to live around here.

Mr. you know who pope is?

Yeah I do, I've known pope

longer n' you been alive.

Is that right?

That's right.

I can't help ya I'm sorry.

I got a hundred dollars.

Anybody might lead me to him.

Hey squirt you stay

right here alright.

Now you say what now?

I say I got a hundred dollars

to anybody who take me to pope.

Tell ya what

you keep that Benjamin,

you come out here lookin'

all slick like,

look like the kinda

guy might know

where to find a bag a ice.

Yeah, I might be able

to help you with that.

Here we gonna do.

Ol' squirt back

there he gotta boat.

He gonna take ya a

quarter mile up the river.

I ain't gettin' in that boat

'cause I'm scared a skins.

But here's the deal

I'm gonna hold me

end you hold yours.

You don't I'm gonna string ya

up like a Southern wind chime.

Ya understand?

Oh you gonna be happy

with what I got for you boy.

I'll be the judge a

that, alright, hey squirt.

You gonna hop in with this

man here, he gonna take ya

up the river alright?

(Engine starts)

You're gonna be

alright, alright.

Little man get on

in the door's open.

(Door slams)

Is this somethin' I

should have an attorney for?

What are you guilty of?

Again, I apologize for

the implication format

but usually when one requests

representation it's an

admission of guilt.

Now we can go down

that Avenue but

there's a mess here.

(Gunshot rings out)

And although there are other

subjects who are most certainly

involved you in fact are the

only one they brought to me.

Not anyone else.

I can assure you forfeiting

this opportunity would be

something to regret because

there won't be another

opportunity for

reprieve, understood?

I think I do.

So what will it be?

Are we done?

Very well.

Wait.

F*** it.

(Shoes clicking on concrete)

(Door opens)

(Door squeaks and closes)

(Cranks engine)

(Ominous music)

(Water sloshes)

This it?

Sh*t.

Don't go nowhere.

I mean,

don't you go nowhere,

I'll be back.

Up there, huh?

Sh*t.

Hello?
