Sin City
(3.00 / 3 votes)She shivers in the wind like the last leaf on a dying tree
I let her hear my footsteps
She only goes stiff for a moment
Care for a smoke?
Sure. I'll take one
Are you as bored by that crowd as I am?
I didn't come here for the party
I came here for you
I've watched you for days
You're everything a man could ever want
It's just not your face
Your... figure
Or your voice
It's your eyes
All the things I see in your eyes
What is it you see in my eyes?
I see a crazy calm
You're sick of running
You're ready to face what you have to face
But you don't want to face it alone
No
I don't want to face it alone
The wind rises electric
She's soft and warm and almost weightless
Her perfume is sweet promise that brings tears to my eyes
I tell her that everything will be alright
That I'll save her from whatever she's scared of and take her far far away
I tell her... I love her
The silencer makes a whisper of the gunshot
I hold her close until she's gone
I'll never know what she's running from
I'll cash her check in the morning
Just 1 hour to go. My last day on the job
Early retirement. Not my idea
Doctor's orders. Heart condition
"Angina", he calls it
I'm polishing my badge and getting myself used to the idea of saying "Goodbye" to it
It and the 35 years of protecting and serving and tears and...
blood and terror, triumph that represents
I'm thinking of Aileen's slow smile
about the thick fat steak she picked up at the butcher's today
I'm thinking about the one loose end I haven't tied up
A young girl who's out there somewhere
helpless in the hands of a drooling lunatic
Damnit, Hartigan
I won't let you do this, you're going to get yourself killed
You're going to get us both killed
I won't let you. I'm warning you
Let go of my coat, Bob
You're draggin me down with you. I'm your partner
They can kill me too. I ain't putting up with that
I'm getting on the horn and calling for backup
Sure, Bob. We'll just wait
Sit on our ass while that sick Rourk brat gets his sick thrills with victim number 4
Victim number 4
Nancy Callahan, age 11
And she'll be raped and slashed to ribbons
and that backup that we're waiting on
will just so happen to show up just late enough
for Rourk to get back to his U.S. Senator daddy
Take a deep breath, Hartigan
Settle down and think straight
You're pushing 60 and you got a bum ticker
You ain't saving anyone
Got a great attitude, Bob
Real credit to the force, you are
Aileen's home waiting for you. Think about Aileen
Heck, Bob
Maybe you are right
I'm glad to hear you're finally talking sense
Hell of way to end a partnership
Hell of a way to start my retirement
Nancy Callahan, age 11
For all I know, she's dead already
You've been a very good, Nancy
You've been very quiet
Don't be scared
We're going to be taking you home really soon
But first, we're going to introduce you to somebody
He's a very nice man
Half way to the warehouse where Weevil said they took her and it hits
Wicked spot of indegestion
At least that's what I pray it is
I seek only the most lighthearted and momentary degression
The briefest indulgement in automotive pleasure
...for cheap thrills. Such shortlived durability, Mr. Shlubb
You would risk engendering an ill will on the part of our employers
Burt Shlubb and Douglass Klump
This Jaguar you so pinheadedly covet
temporarily remanded to our customer, though it may be
remains the property of the son of Senator Rourk
Got to keep this quiet
Take them down fast
A single dent, the mearest scratch, thereupon on the before
mentioned consequences of which I so recently made mention
