Out on a Limb Page #4

---

a mile to get to the hou. A mile barefoot on a road

full of sharp little sto. With each step,

Bill was thinking of Sally, and you can bet they

weren't very nice thoughts. Damn. (SIREN APPROACHING) (CAR APPROACHING) Hi, my car broke

down back there. Can you give me a lift

to the bus depot? No problem. We just got to

tank up first. Yeah. Ugh. Jim,

you all right? (GRUNTING) You all right? Yeah.

Watch your step. MAN ON TV:

Guess I kinda threw you

a curve there, didn't ? No, four times four

is 16, Beaver. Yeah, now remember that.

Fix it in your mind. Okay, heree

go again. I'm kind of in a hurry.

You think you could

tank up later? Oh, hi. Oh, yeah.

It's that girl. Oh, yeah,

she's in a hurry. We could take

the shortcut through

the old lumber road. Oh, yeah. That's fine,

Beaver. Fine. Now then, four times four.

15. Now? Oh, now.

Okay, sure.

Oh, now. SALLY:
I thought

this was a shortcut.

Where are we? JIM SR:

Don't worry. We just lost

the road temporarily. It's okay. We've been lost

in these woods before. When the stars come out,

we'll have a better idea

of where we are. SALLY: Okay, that's it. I'll take

my chances alone. Okay.

Okay. Ready, Jim? Yeah. Jim! Jim! Jim! (DOG BARKING) Bill! Guess what?

That guy's coming today and Peter has to

give him $150,000. Hmm. First,

I want a kiss. I told Mom she shouldn't

marry him. He's evil. Here's what I want. I want the three of us,

you, me and Peter, to sit down someplace

and have a good, long talk. I don't wanna talk

to a criminal. I know it's hard

for you adjusting

to a new stepfather. Especially when

he's criminal. He's not a criminal, Marci.

You just don't like him. He is a criminal.

He is a criminal.

He is a criminal. Why're you so stubborn,

you little knucklehead? Why are you dressed

like Huckleberry Finn? Hey, Dudley.

How's Dudley? Good boy. Good. (PHONE RINGING) Buzzsaw police. Yes, I'd like to report

a stolen car, please. A stolen car? Could you hold,

please? My God,

what happened

to you? He was kidnapped

and his car was stolen and he was left naked

on the side of the road. Stop telling

stories, Marci. No, this time

it's true, Mom. Yes, this is

the stolen car. Well, what's so complicated

about a stolen car? (BARKING) Come on, Dudley. Well, I'll tell

you what to do.

You have a C.B.? Great. Call the county police,

ask them if

they found a car. (CURSING IN DISTANCE)

It's a silver

1990 BMW 750IL. License plate,

2-S-R-I-4-5-0. Yeah, I'll hold. He's been like this

since yesterday. He's having an affair.

This time I'm positive,

I think. Remember my friend Mandy

from the Junior League? Exact same thing happened

with her husband. Late work days
