I like your style.

I aim to please.

You should try my margarita.

I don't think there's a drink more suited

for a celebration than a margarita.

Champagne?

That's not a drink.

That is a soda.

(laughs)

(knocking)

Flynn, baby, come on!

Hell hath no fury

like a woman bored.

Why don't you take her out'?

Like to the desert

and shoot her'?

(knocking)

Ah.

I swear, she is heaven

when she's in her element.

Here, not so much.

Oh, yeah'?

Well, thanks again.

And I'll be back around 7:00

for those margaritas.

Until then.

Where has she gone'?

Darling.

(low chattering)

Where are you'?

MAN (on TV):
In Flagstaff, police continue to

investigate the homicide at a local motel.

The body was discovered yesterday morning

after report's of a noise disturbance.

The victim has now been

identified as Jed H. Burnham,

son of oil tycoon H.W. Burnham.

Burnham, vice president of Southwest

Oil and Phoenix area resident,

was believed to be in the area for acquisition

of land holdings in the southern region.

Considered a rising

political favorite,

Burnham's gruesome murder has sent shook

waves through the local community.

No suspects are yet

in custody, (knocking)

NN but local and state police

are... (TV off)

Hope I'm not bothering you.

Mm-mmm.

Just about to take a nap.

May I?

What do you think?

It's pretty.

Try it on.

This was yours?

Mm-hmm.

A gift from Maxine's on Melrose.

Johnny had impeccable taste.

Who's Johnny?

Oh, a man from another life.

Just as I thought.

Looks better on you

than me. You like?

Yeah, I do.

Then it's yours.

Thanks.

We'll have to do something

about this hair too.

I know exactly how you

should get it cut.

You're awfully nice to me.

Well, you work for me now, doll,

and if you look good,

I look good.

Besides, maybe one day,

when we least expect it,

you'll be able

to return the favor.

Huh?

Hope so.

Let me know if you hear

or see anything, okay'?

And don't nap too long.

I might need you.

(door opens, closes)

( country)

Mmm.

Spared her life'?

I decided to give

the old broad another chance.

These do look good.

MAN:
Tryin' once again

To be just friends

Tryin' to find the

words to make it end

I'd like to make a toast.

Um, here's to getting rich.

(squeals, laughs)

Knowing it's all for the

best but it's still not fair

The ones at Rosie's

taste better.

After the fifth one maybe.

Another pitcher coming up.

FLYNN:
Ahh.

Now, this is a party. Mmm.

Mm-hmm.

Eddie.

Eddie, you gotta see

what I got at the Injun shop.

I got this for you,

little brother.

Oh, cool. Just like the one

they scalped Custer with.

Yah! Yah-tah!

Me want blonde scalp.

(gasps) You've reached the end
