You don't have

to worry about it.

Okay. When?

- Didn't miles expl...

- When?

This week!

I'm gonna go see a..

Our la..

Mitchel's lawyer.

I'm owed 50.

You remember that.

There's plenty. Mitchel

was good with money.

Why did you want him dead?

Did he beat you up?

Something like that?

No.

No.

- He was always cheating on me.

- Oh.

Mitchel was a f***ing pig.

There you go.

I'll give you my number.

Call me if you need.

Maybe if all,

this all works out, I..

I'll take you to dinner.

Movie, somethin' like that.

What? No.

I'm just kiddin'.

I don't need to tell you

what's gonna happen

if I don't get the money

that I'm owed.

You understand?

- Yeah.

- Okay.

Okay.

Hmm.

I brought you a book.

No one saw me.

I really wanna cut this hair.

For what?

You just wanna put me

in a beauty contest

don't you? Huh?

It's a lost cause, Bern.

- No, you're not.

- Mm.

I love you.

You're out of your mind.

You're a good man.

Tom was a good man.

Right?

Yeah.

I don't know, Bern, it's just..

- I liked him, you know?

- Yeah.

Where do you think he is?

I don't know, Bernie.

Heaven.

You really believe that?

No.

I think he's still here.

- I can feel him.

- Yeah.

He'll always be with you, Bern.

We hadn't made love

in five years.

I don't know.

You get weighed down

by convenience..

I guess.

You can't overlook

somethin' like that.

Hi.

How ya doin'?

Oh, sorry.

Uh, my name is Elwood.

Uh, 'Kay. Sam.

- Hi, Sam. Nice to meet ya.

- Yeah.

I'm stayin' in room 125.

A pretty girl checked me

in a few nights back.

I said that I'd be out

by this evening, but, uh..

There's been a slight

change of plan.

Yeah, no problem, lemme just

just check the book.

You said, uh..

- You said, uh, what, 1... 125?

- 1..

1-2-5.

Yep, that's the one.

I was hopin' I could

just hold on to it

for a couple more days.

Okay. Yeah.

Yeah, room's

all yours. It's..

Oh, great.

Just doing my job, is all.

- You a Nazi?

- Sorry?

Oh, the, uh..

Used to belong

to my grandfather.

He took it off a German soldier

there in the, in the war.

He use to tell us

that he used it too.

He never would've made it

home without it, he said.

Oh, what happened to the

man that it belonged to?

The German did, uh.. Did

your grandfather shoot him?

Uh, he said he didn't.

I guess he just,

uh, found the guy there.

You know, he... he was

slumped under a tree

and, uh, he was... he was

holdin' on

to a picture of

his... his sweetheart so..

How'd he die then?

I don't know.

Broken heart, I guess.

Better than a bullet.
