[breathing heavily]

This is real.

In less than an hour

they will catch up to you

and open fire in seconds.

So if I were you, I would swing

that tool as fast as I can.

Maybe one less bullet

disrupt your frame

which makes all the difference

in the authority's ability

to ID your body

allows for the funeral

you deserve.

Whether you swing

that thing or not

it's going to be

a closed casket.

Or we stay together

and you bet on me.

[sighs]

F-f-f***!

[instrumental music]

[engine starts]

[engine revving]

[tires screeching]

[indistinct chatter on radio]

Couldn't you have picked a car

with satellite radio?

Humor. You're relaxing.

Just getting used

to a new normal.

[Natalie]

It's not forever.

What's in Nevada?

Not our destination.

Which is?

Phoenix.

Arizona?

Yep, that one.

- Ever been?

- No.

- You?

- Yes.

Well, then you know

this isn't the right way.

We've gotta get on the ten.

[Natalie] Yeah, that's the way

everyone goes to Phoenix.

I hope they send the people

who are following us

won't know where we are heading.

In case I'm wrong,

the extra added time and space

will make them think

we went somewhere else.

And-and after

this extra-scenic round

what's waiting for us there?

A safe place.

Somewhere I can protect you

until this is over.

Who are you?

Look, I-I mean,

I think I'm already there

but just help me

tip the ball in.

[Hollis]

Law enforcement? Government?

"And zoom straight to the moon

with you, Alice."

"Ho-Honeymooners?"

How old are you?

Jackie Gleason.

Funny man. I thought you'd

appreciate the black and white.

Yeah, fair enough. You're

not gonna tell me who you are.

Ah, your deal?

Our paths crossed while

I was in transition of sorts.

Oh, we could say the same thing.

Um, burdening your soul on me

won't benefit either of us.

Well, you really do live

on front street.

- Referring to my honesty?

- And your blunt delivery.

It's effective.

I was gonna say rude.

[instrumental music]

[Natalie]

Bathroom's yours. Go ahead.

You know what?

I think I'll hold it.

I didn't know the princess

required five stars.

[sighs]

[instrumental music]

Get whatever you want.

Is there a real meal

in my future?

Why ask if there's not?

Thought you might say that.

What part of this

feels like a vacation?

The clerk is watching me.

Stop giving him a reason to.

Is there toothbrush

in front of you?

- Yes.

- Could you grab one?

What are you gonna do with it?

Brush my teeth.

- Alright.

- One toothpaste, too, please.

Colgate, if they have it.

Hm, priorities. Colgate.

Dental hygiene.

Uh, c-can I get one?

It is recommended.

Prevents cavities.

I know you don't think
