On Deadly Ground Page #4

there'll be a goddamned disaster.

And I don't want any part of it.

It's just one guy talking, but I gotta tell you

that's a very poor attitude on your part.

Here's what we're gonna do.

Let's skip the press conference

all together?

Good.

Because if this is what you truly believe...

l just don't see how your being there

will help Mr. Jennings in any way.

I am, however, gonna have to ask you

for your pipe tally books.

I'm certain you know

which ones I'm talking about.

They were the ones that you promised

to supply the EPA with.

Listen!

Stupid sh*t!

Tie him up!

You with me?

I've got nothing here!

You consider yourself a modern guy?

Sometimes modern guys...

are a little too modern

for their own f***ing good.

- What the...

- Sh*t.

Which I think is going to be the case here...

because most modern guys put a logbook

under their computer.

Only thing is...

your computer's been downloaded.

I'm afraid that's a problem.

That's your problem.

Oh, yeah.

Why don't we cut through all this rat sh*t?

At present count,

you only have ten fingers.

I honestly don't want to have

to ask you ten times.

Where are your books?

I want the disks and I want those books.

I'm telling you, I don't have them!

Have you listened to yourself lately?

Have you?

Everything with you is "l, l, l."

There is no "l" in "team."

It is T-E-A-M.

Team!

Better quit while you're ahead.

You know what I'm saying?

While you can still play marbles.

Where are the disks?

Where are the books?

F*** you!

F*** me? No, f*** you!

Hugh.

Go to hell.

Okay.

Okay, I'll go to hell.

Hugh, you want to talk

about faulty equipment?

I want to see how faulty this pipe cutter is.

It's about the end of the line for you.

God, no! Otto, what are you doing?

Aegis Oil has now determined...

that what little spillage there was

in this accident...

was contained so effectively

by our environmental-impact crews...

that only minimal disruption

of the area's ecosystem will result.

What do you mean by "minimal"?

According to our analyst,

the presence ofpetroleum by-products...

and other toxins in lnulat Cove

will be back down to acceptable levels...

according to EPA guidelines...

within three months.

So, by the time your next fishing season

starts, the cove will be back to normal.

- There'll be a written statement.

- Wait.

Things won't ever be the same.

Aegis Oil always wants to talk about...

acceptable levels of this

and acceptable levels of that.

But the people want to talk

about the poisons in their environment...

that weren't here

before Aegis Oil came to town.

We want to talk about the increased rates

of skin cancer...

women who fail to ovulate.
