Nothing to Lose Page #3

Synopsis: When a man (Robbins) believes he has discovered that his wife is having an affair with his boss, it sets off a chain reaction of events. First he wanders into a ghetto where a robber (Lawrence) tries to take his money at gunpoint, but instead sets a wild ride from California to Arizona. The two eventually become reluctant friends. Discussing robbery techniques, they decide to get back at the boss by robbing an office safe containing hundreds of thousands of dollars. Life is further complicated by another pair of robbers who chase the first two for infringing on their territory.

Look, I told you

the gun wasn't loaded.

You got yourself into this.

You know what you are? You're

a bad person. You're an armed robber.

Don't expect me

to feel sorry for you.

Excuse me.

Is there a problem here?

- Yes.

- Is this man botherin' you?

- Yes, he is.

- Oh, so you're just gonna come

right at the brother.

Why don't you ask

if he's bothering me?

Lady, for all you know,

I could be Denzel Washington.

Take a good look.

He could be some

celebrity stalker.

I'm gonna have to ask you

to pay for this coffee now...

'cause I've seen these things

escalate before.

No problem. My wallet.

Wow! Looks like the celebrity stalker

don't have a wallet.

Oh, well, thank you.

I will get your change, sir.

What? You want me to thank you?

So I owe you a buck.

How was you goin' to get gas? You don't

have no money, no credit cards.

No I.D.

Sh*t, man.

Okay. All right.

You give me money for gas

and I'll take you back.

I'm cool. I'm...

I'm straight.

As a matter of fact, l... you know,

I like it out here in the desert.

You know, you get

all sweaty and sh*t.

Just bubbling off your ass.

Just... What?

I just remembered.

I have a spare credit card

in the side compartment.

Uh-huh, right here!

What's up?

What's up, white boy?

W-W-What's up, huh?

Come on, come on.

What ya got?

Huh? Look at you. You done

f***ed around and got dropped.

Get the f*** outta here.

- What?

- You hit like a ole girl, man.

Get the f*** on out of here, man.

Go about your business.

Motherf...

What the hell is this,

your merry-go-round move?

Yo, I understand.

Aha!

Thank you.

Hey. Oh, sh*t.

I didn't know it was expired.

I never use it.

So why are you out here?

- What do you care?

- I'm curious.

I'm a student

of human nature.

You're a freak

of human nature.

That's all right.

I forgive you.

It's clear you have

woman problems.

You're way off base.

- I'm off base?

- Yeah. Way off base.

- She mess around on you?

- Look.

Even if I wanted to talk about it...

which I don't... it wouldn't be with you.

You give her some nastiness? I know you

gave her some serious nastiness.

- Just forget it.

- What about him? Did you f*** him up?

Did you whoop his ass? I bet you hit

that motherf***er with a bat, didn't ya?

Kling! Pow! F***ed his ass up,

didn't ya?

No, wait a minute. You capped him. You

capped that motherf***er, didn't you?

That's why you out here

in the desert, ain't ya?

Look. I didn't shoot him. I didn't say

anything to my wife. I just left.

- What do you mean, you just left?

- Just left. L...

I saw them doing you know...

and I walked away.

What a p*ssy.

No wonder your woman

is sneaking behind your back, man.
